Chapter 79 77. Zhuge Liang: I never thought that A Chu could read as well as Liang (Subscribe for monthly tickets)
When she arrived at her residence tonight, Huang Yueying finally breathed a sigh of relief. Is Zhuge Kongming, who is not yet twenty, already so thoughtful?
Simply terrible.
Although she wanted to catch this big guy, she never expected to meet him so early.
What she originally wanted to do was to let Second Sister Zhuge reveal to her brother the situation of the people in Huangjiazhuang living and working in peace and contentment, so as to build a good impression first.
Then when the big boss comes out of his filial piety period, let the old father take Sima Decao to clean up his face, and then bring back a few coolies.
Anyway, Uncle Liu Huang will not come to Jingzhou for another two years, and he will have to wait for seven or eight years for Xu Shu to recommend this big shot.
And now... Huang Yueying feels like she has lost her vest.
After all, if it is a lie, there will be loopholes. How could such a smart person not catch the loopholes?
Sighing, he pulled out a wooden box. There was a list of books donated by various aristocratic families. Since he had promised to bring a few volumes with him, he couldn't be empty-handed.
Looking through it at a glance, there are still mostly classics and meanings, and there are even some miscellaneous books on agriculture.
He probably had a lot of classics and meanings, and these miscellaneous books were of some use, so he selected a few volumes, namely: "The Book of Pansheng", "Four People's Monthly Order", two agricultural books, Mohist's "Banner"
", "Orders", three chapters of "Za Shou", and one volume of "Nine" Arithmetic.
At dinner, Gan Ning ate corn rice and asked, "Achu and that person have been talking for so long?"
"Soon." Huang Yueying shook her head.
"who is he?"
"Zhuge Kongming."
"Zhuge?" Gan Ning then thought of Pang Shanmin's wife and was slightly stunned.
"Yes, he is the brother-in-law of the mountain man brother." Huang Yueying nodded, "I thought he should be in Wollongong."
"Wollongong?" Gan Ning was confused.
"Ah, it's nothing. Brother, don't worry about it." Huang Yueying waved her hand, "After dinner, I'm going to visit him. Brother, help me get some books."
Gan Ning:...I'm just picking up things.
However, he does need to be guarded, in case someone discovers that the little gentleman is a little girl... something serious.
So he nodded in agreement.
"What about me, brother?" Huang Jun interrupted.
"You, go to bed early, children can't stay up late." Huang Yueying took a bite of pickles and said seriously.
That person has so many tricks up his sleeve that she can't pry open the door, so Huang Jun can capture him with his hands.
Huang Jun:......
"If you don't go, you won't go!"
"If you can return to Xiangyang in a few days, you should also go back to Mianyang to study." Huang Yueying added.
In the past month or so, Huang Jun has been a little wild, but he is more energetic. He has gone out to see the market, and it is always different.
"oh."
…
Thatched cottage.
Zhuge Liang had just finished dinner and took a few volumes of miscellaneous books from the shelf to Shi Tao.
"Kong Ming, Wang Zhongxuan donated ten thousand volumes of books, and now Huang Chu has brought back these many volumes. When the academy is completed...are you going or not?" Shi Tao took it and asked curiously.
"Liang wants to keep his filial piety for his uncle." Zhuge Liang replied seriously, meaning that he won't be able to go in the short term.
"According to previous news, the young gentleman estimated that the construction period of the school palace will take six to nine months. Construction started in March and will be completed before the beginning of the year."
"I want to send Ah Jun away." Zhuge Liang looked at Zhuge Jun who was sitting outside the house and sighed inwardly.
He invited "Mr. Little" today, first out of curiosity, and secondly, to inspire Ah Jun. Mr. Little was someone whom Ah Jun admired.
"Ah Jun... that's okay." Shi Tao looked at the children outside, then smiled.
At this time, the two of them heard voices coming from outside the door.
"Mianyang Huang Chu, I came here to visit you."
"coming!"
…
Zhuge Jun was the first to react. Mianyang Huang Chu...Huang Chu...ah, isn't he a young gentleman? Then he stood up and ran out of the courtyard gate, seeing the handsome man in front of him who was almost as tall as him.
The young man then bowed and said, "But in person, young gentleman?"
"I don't dare to take it seriously." Huang Yueying quickly returned the gift. After thinking about it, she knew who this person was.
Zhuge Liang's overly mediocre younger brother, Zhuge Jun.
"My lord, Zhuge Jun, do you want to visit my brother?" Zhuge Jun's eyes were bright, and he shrank when he saw the big man behind the young gentleman holding five or six volumes of books.
"Yes, I want to visit Brother Kong Ming."
"Haha, Ah Chu, come in quickly." Zhuge Liang didn't wait for his little brother to stop talking nonsense, strode forward, pulled "Huang Chu" and walked inside.
Gan Ning behind him widened his eyes and shouted, "Wait!"
Zhuge Liang was "puzzled" and turned around, only to see Gan Ning push the scroll into his arms, forcing him to take it.
Huang Yueying breathed a sigh of relief. With Kong Ming's enthusiastic look, he pretended to treat her as a young teacher, right? So...did she lose her vest?
"That's fine." Zhuge Liang accepted it with a smile, then hugged the bamboo slips and said, "Hurry up and follow Liang inside."
So, several people entered the house together.
Several oil lamps were lit in the room, and another person turned around immediately and said, "I'm Shi Tao, courtesy name Guangyuan."
"Mianyang Huang Chu, you are polite." Huang Yueying returned the greeting.
"Gan Ning, whose courtesy name is Xingba, is polite."
So, a few people settled down.
Shi Tao looked at the scroll in Zhuge Liang's arms, his eyes lit up, he took a scroll and sat aside to read it, "It's actually the Book of Pan Sheng? Who donated it?"
Zhuge Liang shook his head helplessly, "Don't blame A Chu and General Gan, Guang Yuan has such a temper."
Huang Yueying looked at Shi Tao and thought for a moment. Historically, both Shi Tao and Xu Shu later served as officials in Cao Wei, and neither of them were high officials. Zhuge Liang once lamented: Wei Shu is too evil! How can the two of them be useless?
In other words, does Wei have so many talents? Why can’t these two people be put to good use?
In short, Zhuge Liang highly recognized the talents of these two people.
"Haha, you two, don't be surprised. In fact, I have already heard that Mr. Xiao visited various aristocratic families for the purpose of the academy and collected thousands of books." Shi Tao also laughed loudly, and then looked at Huang Yueying, "I don't know, Mr. Xiao
Can you tell me how many volumes of books you collected during this trip?"
Huang Yueying said without thinking, "There are about more than 20,000 volumes. The Book of Pan Sheng was donated by the Xinye Deng family."
"Hiss..." Shi Tao took a breath, so many books! "Xinye Deng family? It seems that a certain big shot once supported the family."
The Xinye Deng family gave birth to a queen.
Zhuge Liang was also surprised, then he smiled and opened the book, "These are the books?"
"Well, thinking about it, there is no shortage of brothers in the Jingyi category."
"There is no shortage of these books. I happen to have never read these books." Zhuge Liang expressed his satisfaction. Although he was born in the Zhuge family of Langya, he had been wandering all these years and had few days where he could calm down and read. So he smiled gently and said,
"Thank you very much, Achu."
"Brother, you're welcome." Huang Yueying was still very happy.
Being able to provide some help on the boss's growth path is a bit of a joy. Although... she is younger, but when I think about it... she is from two thousand years later after all!
Zhuge Liang heard the emotion in Huang Chu's tone and felt much happier unconsciously.
So, each of them divided a volume into a book and read it.
As a result... Zhuge Jun took the volume "Nine Chapters", which later generations called "Nine Chapters on Arithmetic". However, seeing that everyone was reading seriously, he didn't want to disturb him, so he had to bite the bullet and read.
…
Huang Yueying took the "Four People's Monthly Order", which talks about the routine activities of the gentry in this era for a year.
From agriculture, animal husbandry, handicrafts, textile industry, manufacturing, ethnography, etc... the list is endless, self-sufficient, closed-door market.
Just right for her.
She compared it with the Huangjiazhuang, and found that animal husbandry has not yet been carried out uniformly, because she wanted to do farming on her fifteen hundred acres of mountain land.
Handicrafts and manufacturing are pretty good.
To be continued...
