The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty Chapter 189: The pursuit of a scholar

Yun Yanhui felt that he was really frightened. He really didn't think about it, Shen Kuo would like Shuangyi!

No matter how I look at it, I feel that in the few interactions between the two, it's Shuang Yi's show of force.

In this biological world, it seems that it is usually the males who show their strength, and then the females fall in love, right? Why is it so fresh and refined when it comes to Shen Kuo's place?

Or does it mean that Shen Kuo has the same girly heart as their primary school?

Yun Yan Hui suddenly felt that he had discovered the key, thinking that when he said to Xiao Chuxin that I treated you as a friend, you actually wanted to fall in love with me.

Now you can tell Shen Kuo that I treat you as a friend and you actually like my sister.

At this time, Shen Kuo also felt that he was a little too "unruly", "Brother Yan, I don't mean to offend... It's just that I took the initiative to ask the officials to participate in the poetry meeting..."

"I don't mean to offend, but..." Yun Yan replied with difficulty, "But why do you think like this! You should understand, if you and my sister really do, then you will With many restrictions, I won't consider you as a friend anymore!"

Shen Kuo looked at Yun Yan back in shock, expressing incomprehension to his last sentence.

Yun Yan replied seriously: "Look, if we are friends, we go out for a drink, and if you ask a geisha to accompany you, I might tell you who sings well. But if you are my brother-in-law, I will will break your legs..."

Shen Kuo: "..."

I don't even allow a geisha to accompany the drink. This is really strict.

But looking at Yun Yan's return, she is very serious.

And as long as you think about it, you can know that Yun Yanhui is also so strict with herself, and she has always gotten along with the women of Huanchang as elders.

Yunyan looked back at Shen Kuo and warned: "If you regret it, we will continue to be friends, and I will not tell anyone about this."

Shen Kuo, who was a little stunned, shook his head and said hesitantly, "I think...it's acceptable. Sister Ling is very special..."

Yunyan looked back at Shen Kuo for a long time, and was very surprised, "Oh, hello, there is still a market for our family's Shuangyi type. Thinking about it, Shen Kuo's conditions were quite in line with his imagination.

The official is not particularly high, but there is no pressure in life, people are smart enough, have a taste for life, have a good temper, and are weak in combat, especially if they have some medical skills, they can bandage themselves if they are injured by Shuangyi ...

Bah, that's not right, but you can't go to domestic violence in the first place.

Yun Yanhui was thinking about it here, but Shen Kuo thought he had doubts, so he said: "Brother Yan, you know me well, I didn't ask for my sister's dowry, you can dowry less... …”

"That won't work, I can't wrong Shuangyi." Yun Yan replied, "I'm not doubting your character, but I can't decide this matter. You see, Shuangyi told the officials. Don't you think that the two of you are very different? But if you still don't give up on this, then you have to let Shuang Yi be willing, do you know what I mean?"

Shen Kuo has never seen this model before.

There are two parents in the family. Isn't it the life of the parents and the words of the matchmaker? But thinking about the uniqueness of this family, Shen Kuo also understood, he gritted his teeth, "I'm just afraid... if I come to see Sister Ling often, it will hinder her..."

Shen Kuo thought that Yun Yanhui would give him some ideas and even create a chance for him.

Who knew that Yun Yanhui showed a gloating expression and closed the door, "It's your own business, you want to go."

Shen Kuo: "..."

Yunyan said coldly and ruthlessly: "You hurry up, I'm going back for dinner."

"Brother Yan..." Shen Kuo wanted to cry without tears, but Yun Yanhui turned his face and didn't recognize him.

……

Yunyan went back into the house and found that everyone was staring at him with wide eyes.

“…for what?”

Zheng Ping said strangely: "What are you looking for in the deposit?"

They were still talking here just now, but the officials actually called Shen Cunzhong to the poetry club, but Shuangyi refused all of them, and now Shen Cunzhong came to the door, what's the situation? to explain? “

"He said he took the initiative to ask to go to the poetry party..." Yun Yan replied slowly, and she saw that everyone was shocked.

Shuang Yi even burst out: "...Is he sick?"

"How did you talk?" Zheng Ping gave Shuang Yi a disapproving look. She still had a good impression of Shen Kuo, but she wondered if she might be a little weak.

"I've always thought that this child in Cunzhong has a very good eye. Didn't you say before that he admired Brother Yan very much before he entered Beijing?"

If Shuang Yi and Shen Cunzhong become successful, it will be a beautiful thing.

Yun Yanhui admired Zheng Ping's ability to associate, and at the same time showed a gossip expression: "Shuangyi, did you really do anything other than save him?"

"What saved him, I didn't see him in that group of people." Shuang Yi felt inexplicable. In her impression, Shen Kuo was a weak chicken. "What did you tell him?" /

"What else can I say, I just made sure that he really wanted to marry him, and then I ignored him." Yun Yan replied sternly, "Until your marriage has any whereabouts or he has an answer. , I decided not to treat him as a friend in order to create a fair and just environment so that you won't be disturbed by me."

Shuang Yi said expressionlessly: "I'm going to eat."

"This topic is too blunt," Yun Yan took a sip of tea back, "Hey, it seems we Shuang Yi are still shy."

Shuangyi: "..."

.

Yun Yan replied that she wanted to avoid her own interference, so she really avoided Shen Kuo. After all, Shuang Yi had such a good relationship with him from childhood to adulthood. What if he consulted his attitude.

Again, it's one thing to be friends, but quite another to be in-laws.

Shen Kuo had no choice. After a few days of holding back, he started giving gifts.

The first gift was sent by Zheng Ling.

Zheng Ling came to Yunyan with a box wrapped in cloth, "Shen Kuo asked me to bring this, what is this, Brother Yan, have you made anything else?"

Shen Kuo said to bring Yun Yan home, but Zheng Ling thought it was for Yun Yan.

Shuang Yi happened to be at home too, and was sitting there wiping the dagger, but when she heard it, she looked over.

Yun Yanhui glanced at her, stepped forward and untied the cloth. The box inside had a mechanism, and after pressing it, it could be opened. After opening, it turned into a square chessboard with a dome in the middle, with twenty-four pieces attached, half red and half black.

Zheng Ling asked curiously, "What is this?"

Yun Yanhui couldn't recognize it either. She looked at the piece of paper and pressed it under the chess piece. She wanted to open it and read it, but suddenly she thought of something, and handed the note to Shuang Yi, "Come and see."

Zheng Ling was even more puzzled, why did she ask Shuang Yi to come and see?

Shuang Yi unfolded the note and looked back at Yunyan, "It's a game."

Yunyan looked back and said, hey, it's true, there's no nasty words, it's just a gameplay. Only then did he know what this thing was, and he couldn't help but look at the chessboard and pieces again, "It turns out that this is playing chess."

When Zheng Ling heard this, his face was stunned, "Playing chess? What is playing chess?"

"You're really inexperienced, can you read more?" Yun Yan explained back, "Xiangye moved the lamp to Yinqing, and Cong Cong green temples sat and played chess. This is the game I'm talking about, Han Chengdi likes to play Cuju. , the ministers felt that the emperor should not play Cuju, so someone invented the game of playing chess and dedicated it to Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, so you can understand it as Cuju on the chessboard, playing with marbles."

Yunyan replied that Zheng Ling didn't like to read, and he was not wronged. Yun Yanhui didn't know how to play chess early on, he also learned about it after reading the book, "...However, after the Tang Dynasty, this kind of gameplay has gradually been lost. Therefore, this chessboard, chess pieces and gameplay should be restored by Shen Kuo based on ancient books. Yes, there is only one in the world.”

Zheng Ling still doesn't understand, "What does he do with this restoration? Is it fun? Can he make money?"

Yun Yan glanced back at Zheng Ling, "Playing chess was once popular in Tang Dynasty. Tang people like playing chess very much, so it should be fun. It is not certain whether it can make money or not. After all, we have more chess games now than at that time. A lot. As for why he wants to restore this... Hehe, how do I know?"

Actually, Yun Yanhui knew it! Xueba's love affair is really different. He studied ancient books and recovered only one chess game in the world, just to chase girls wow! At this level, I ask you whether you are satisfied?

Look at Shuang Yi again, there is nothing special on his expression, he is fiddling with the pieces and watching curiously.

"Oh..." Zheng Ling flipped through it, "It doesn't matter, let's play."

Zheng Ling immediately started playing chess with Shuang Yi. From time to time, he compared the gameplay. After a few games, he became proficient. It was quite addictive.

This play chess became popular in Yunyan's home.

Although Shen Kuo didn't say who it was for, everyone knew that it was given to Shuang Yi, so he usually kept it in her room and took it out when he wanted to play.

After a few days like this, Shen Kuo asked Zhao Yunchu to send something.

"You sent this... to Brother Yan's house."

"Why don't you go by yourself?" Zhao Yunchu looked at the box and asked.

Shen Kuo blushed, "No, it's inconvenient..."

Zhao Yunchu suddenly became suspicious, "What's in here? What are you sending Brother Yan for? What's your purpose?"

Shen Kuo was very embarrassed by him, "You don't need to send it, I'll find someone else."

Zhao Yunchu refused to return the box to him, "Why do you want to give something to Brother Yan?"

Shen Kuo: "..."

Shen Kuo knelt down, "...not for Brother Yan."

He was really convinced, Zhao Yunchu and Zheng Ling's reactions were completely different. After Zheng Ling heard it, he had no doubts at all. He even thought it was going to be sent to Yun Yan, and he didn't even think about it.

"It wasn't for Brother Yan, who was it for?" After Zhao Yunchu finished speaking, he understood, and looked at Shen Kuo meaningfully.

Shen Kuo: "..."

"I delivered it for you. I'm going to Yan Ge'er's house for dinner today." Zhao Yunchu didn't return the box to him, and took the meal time to Yunyan to go home.

"This is what Shen Kuo asked me to bring." Zhao Yunchu said.

As soon as he said it, everyone understood what was going on.

When I took it apart, this time it was a beautiful bronze mirror with an embossed lotus pattern and Liu Yong's words on the back - which is equivalent to a pop song. Other than that, nothing special.

Shuang Yi picked it up and looked at it. It was quite clear, but she didn't know what it meant.

Yun Yanhui knew that Shen Kuo would not give it casually, at least it was on the same level as the last time playing chess. After watching it for a long time, he found that patterns and poems could be vaguely seen on the mirror, and his heart moved. , then take a look at the light.

In an instant, the same pattern and verse as the back of the mirror appeared on the wall, which turned out to be a light-transmitting mirror.

Like the chess play, this is a restored work that has long lost its production method. Today's craftsmen have long since not known how to make such a light-transmitting mirror. Yun Yanhui was still wearing it, so he guessed one or two.

Shuang Yi looked surprised and tried for a while with the mirror, "How is this done?"

Ping Zheng felt that Shen Kuo was very attentive, and exchanged glances with Yun Yanhui.

Yunyan said, "I'll take Xiaochu to play chess."

Shuang Yi answered absentmindedly.

Yun Yanhui and Zhao Yunchu went out into the yard with the play chess and put the chessboard aside.

Zhao Yunchu understood at first glance, "This is also sent by Shen Kuo?"

"You're smarter than Fei Bo, he hasn't thought about it yet." Yun Yanhui also understood that Zhao Yunchu must have noticed it.

Zhao Yunchu was quite emotional, "I didn't expect Shen Cunzhong to treat Shuangyi...the two of them are really irrelevant. Wouldn't Shuangyi really think he can't use martial arts?"

"I don't know, but Shen Kuo is probably worried about this, so he sent so many things." Yun Yanhui wanted to laugh, "He's really thoughtful."

Zhao Yunchu also laughed, "What would you do if you were in such a situation as Brother Yan?"

Yunyan smiled back: "Haha, send money, I'm tacky."

"No way..." Zhao Yunchu touched the scarf that he had used for several years, and whispered, "Brother Yan, you are not tacky."

Because I have experienced it, I am more thirsty.
