On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Jiang Kangchen hugged his son for a long time, then gave his son to Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing with confidence, said goodbye to relatives and friends, got on a carriage to the ferry, and returned to the capital. Wang Shijing and Jiang Kangning sent him away, accompanied by gifts from the three carriages, 3,500 taels of gold and 35,000 taels of silver donated by Shao Yunan to General Dai, and the "baby" he got from Shao Yunan.

When Jiang Kangchen left, Jiang Moxi, who was in Shao Yun'an's arms, was holding the Rubik's Cube in his hand, but his eyes were looking at the carriage that went away, until the carriage disappeared, and he lowered his head and continued to study the eighth-order Rubik's Cube. Shao Yunan noticed this scene and was shocked: Could it be that Lingru and Lingquan are really effective for Jiang Moxi's autism?

In order to treat Jiang Moxi, Shao Yunan secretly added more spiritual milk and spiritual spring water to Jiang Moxi every day by pouring water or serving meals. Jiang Moxi is autistic, so don't worry about what he notices.

If Lingru and Lingquan can really cure Jiang Moxi, Shao Yunan can't wait to see Brother Jiang's reaction (ecstasy).

After Jiang Kangchen left, Shao Yunan also felt that the family was deserted. However, Kang Rui has been living there, and he still finds time every day to teach Wang Qing, Wang Yan and Zhao Congbo to read. To say that Wang Shuping and Zhao Yuande are grateful to Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing. If it weren't for their relationship, how could their son get the guidance of Old Cen and Vice President Kang.

Kang Rui turned his back on Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing's indifference at first. Although he was still a very reserved and self-disciplined master, he was not pedantic. After discovering the extraordinaryness of Shao Yunan, he especially likes to debate with Shao Yunan and listen to Shao Yunan's views on current state affairs, which can often bring him different perceptions and new inspirations. Every day he gets along with Shao Yunan, he thinks that Shao Yunan should be the master, and he should be the master of the Gongyuan in the capital.

Jiang Kangchen left, Wang Ni took Jiang Moxi to find a master to practice the piano, Wang Qing went to Wang Yan and Zhao Congbo to do homework—the art work arranged by Shao Yunan. The literati of this era, especially people like Cen Lao and Kang Rui, are definitely proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. At this point, Shao Yunan sighed to himself. Kang Rui took the initiative to act as the art teacher of the three children, and Shao Yunan asked the three children to paint without taking cultural lessons today.

Cen Lao and Kang Rui studied the articles and poems recorded by Shao Yunan in the study specially arranged for Cen Lao by Shao Yunan. Every time they read it, they couldn't help but sigh again. Both of them have recently become obsessed with writing lyrics, and Shao Yunan told them about lyrics. This new door opened for them is full of seductive charm.

"Kang Rui, I have something to ask for as a teacher."

Kang Rui recovered from his thoughts and raised his head.

Old Cen looked at him with a serious expression: "Kang Rui, I want to devote myself to studying this 'word' for the sake of my teacher. The dean of Baiyue Academy will officially leave it to you."

Kang Rui said: "You are always the foundation of the academy, and the students may not be able to convince the public."

Old Cen shook his head: "Don't be modest. Your title of 'School Master' is not a vain name. Wei Shi is now full of these poems and articles. For Wei Shi, these are the big things. You can rest assured, The teacher doesn't care about the academy, it's just that you will be in charge of the academy in the future."

Kang Rui was not hypocritical, got up and saluted: "Students follow the teacher's wishes."

Old Cen stroked his beard, and his mood was immediately relieved. Kang Rui sat down, hesitating to speak, Old Cen said, "Just say whatever you want."

Kang Rui said: "Students always feel that Yun'an still has a lot of secrets."

"Hehe," Old Cen stroked his beard again and said with a smile, "The little fox must have it. Don't hurry, he will definitely take it out in the future, you and I will wait for the time being. You and I will understand these first. I plan to go to Beijing after the new year to meet my senior brother. Let's not say anything else, just this 'word' can cause an uproar."

Kang Rui agreed: "It should be given to the master. If the teacher needs the students, the students are bound to do so."

Elder Cen sighed: "That little fox is still beyond the teacher's expectations. Kang Rui, the past has passed, and we still need to look forward. The teacher has already lost the heart of the temple, but now you can see it. Anger is willing to hand over these things because he believes in you. You and I have to keep them in my heart. If he wants to hide these things, these things will not appear in many years or a hundred years. You and I are alive. Impossible to see.

Angel may not realize the dangers he will encounter in the future. Since a teacher wants to recognize him as a son, he must make more plans for him. This time for my teacher to come to Beijing, I also want to meet my old friends and your brothers and sisters. "

Kang Rui took a deep breath and nodded solemnly: "The students understand what the teacher means. Yun An did what the students expected. If others had these things, they would have used them to enter the court and seek power and profit. But it was handed over selflessly, and because of this alone, students can’t just sit back and watch. Teachers can rest assured that students know what to do.”

"It's best if you understand."

"Knock knock knock", someone knocked on the door. Old Cen said, "Come in."

The door was pushed open, and Shao Yunan came in holding a wooden box with a smile. When they saw him, Old Cen and Kang Rui both showed smiles on their faces.

Old Cen asked, "What are you doing, Ange? I won't see you early in the morning."

"I'm busy with you and Dean Kang."

"Give us?"

Old Cen and Kang Rui looked at each other, both curious.

"What's the matter?" Old Cen stared at the box in Shao Yunan's hand.

Shao Yunan walked to the desk, put down the box, and said mysteriously, "It's something you and Dean Kang will like very much. Do you want to guess what it is?"

He pointed to the box.

Old Cen stroked his beard: "Well, is it something fresh to eat?" The little fox said that new tea would not be available until after the new year, so it shouldn't be tea.

Shao Yunan shook his head and looked at Kang Rui. Kang Rui also thought about it seriously and guessed: "Yes, a novel thing?" Like a Rubik's Cube?

Shao Yunan still shook his head.

Old Cen shook his head with a smile: "The old man can't guess. You little fox, don't give a shit, tell me what it is."

Shao Yunan put both hands on the box and said solemnly, "Before I can solve the mystery, you have to promise me one thing."

"You say." Old Cen was the first to agree.

Kang Rui nodded: "It's easy to say."

Shao Yunan grinned: "You can't forget to eat and sleep."

When the two heard it, their eyes lit up. Old Cen stretched out his hand to get the box, and Shao Yunan held it down: "Promise me first."

"I promise." Old Cen guessed what it might be. At this time, all conditions must be agreed!

Shao Yunan looked at Kang Rui, and Kang Rui nodded immediately: "Yes!"

"Okay, you agreed. If I can't do it, I will take it back."

"Promise, promise!"

At this time, in front of Shao Yunan, Old Cen was like an old father coaxing a child, with no principles at all.

Shao Yunan let go, and Elder Cen immediately hugged (snatched) over like a baby, and immediately opened the lid of the box. There are books in the box. The cover of the top book has the word "Book of Songs" written on it. Old Cen's breath suddenly choked, Kang Rui stretched out his hand to pick up the bound book, and then revealed the book underneath, which read "Zhou Yi".

These two books alone have never been seen by Cen Lao and Kang Rui, let alone several books below. Old Cen raised his head, his eyes were shining, and his hands were shaking.

"Angel, these, these are!"

Shao Yunan held Old Cen's trembling hand: "Father, this is my treasure, but it's not mine. When I was ten years old, I met a wounded old monk outside the village. He gave me this box and put it in it. These are the books I have in my hands. He told me to keep these books away, and said that if he didn't come to pick them up after a month, he would let me deal with them. I knew some words when I was a child. Although I couldn't read these books, I also I know how valuable these books are. But strangely, I forgot about them after I put them away, and I didn't remember them until after I killed myself. Maybe this is my adventure. Sir, these books are my favorite. I didn't dare to take it out before, but now, with you, I dare to take it out. I can only rest assured if I hand it over to you."

Old Cen's lips trembled. If it is as Yun An said, then these books must be of great origin!

Shao Yunan said: "I have read these books, and many of the articles and poems I have recited to you are from these books. Because others were present at the time, I had the cheek to say that I thought of it myself."

Old Cen's breathing was heavy, and he clenched Shao Yunan's hand tightly with his backhand. This is not just the word "trust" can do. These books, Shao Yunan can get supreme glory and wealth by giving them to any powerful person, but he gave these books to him, an old man who has no power and no wealth.

Shao Yunan laughed: "You are my father. This is a gift from my son. Please accept it with a smile."

Old Cen's eyes suddenly turned red, and he squeezed Shao Yun'an's face with a smile: "You kid is a father's flatterer!"

"Hey. You still remember what you promised me just now, but you can't forget to eat and sleep."

"Little Fox!"

With a knock on Shao Yunan's forehead, Old Cen couldn't care about anything else, and Kang Rui had already turned a deaf ear to what was happening around him.

"Angel, what about your eldest brother and the others?"

During lunch, Cen Lao, Kang Rui and Jiang Kangning were not seen at the dinner table, and Mrs. Cen asked in confusion. Shao Yunan shook his head inwardly, and said, "There is something going on with the old man. The eldest brother and Dean Kang are discussing with the old man. I will deliver food to them in a while. I guess it is a big deal."

When Mrs. Cen heard it, she said, "Then don't bother them. I have to go back in the afternoon. Mrs. Zhang's wife handed me a greeting card. Her son-in-law is an official in Beijing, so I can't see it."

Shao Yunan immediately said: "Then let her come here, lest you run away."

But Mrs. Cen shook her head and said, "How can anyone come here. She is a woman who came to you to gossip. It just so happens that I have to go back to the mansion to get some things, and I will be back in the evening."

"Then I'll go with you."

"No need. Madam Zhang's mouth is broken. You will not be asked by her if you go."

Wang Shijing immediately said, "I'll take you back. It just so happens that I have to buy some things at home. I'll pick you up after seeing the guests."

Shao Yunan replied, "Let Brother Jing take you back. It just so happens that I also want Brother Jing to see how Aunt Si and their business are doing. Manager Xu has been away, and I'm worried that someone will take the opportunity to trouble them."

Mrs. Cen agreed as soon as she heard it: "Alright. I ordered a Zhang Qin for Nizi, and Ishijing also stopped by to see if he could see it."

"Okay."

Although Elder Cen has not officially held the family recognition banquet, it is a sure thing for Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing to be Elder Cen's son, just waiting for Shao Yunan to think that the troubles on their side will be resolved or that those troubles will not come to them again. In this way, Mrs. Cen is their mother. Therefore, Mrs. Cen's attitude towards Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing is also different now, and she is much closer.

After lunch, Wang Shijing took Zheng Da and Ding Yilin to send Mrs. Cen back to the county, and bought them by the way. On the fifth day of the lunar year, Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing went to visit Guan Chen and the two masters. They were going to pay New Year's greetings to Manager Xu and Manager Zeng, but the two shopkeepers were not there. They said they went to Chinan Mansion. Go again. Hengyuan Hou’s mansion must have known about the tea and wine. With the keenness of Manager Xu and Manager Zeng, he must have guessed that it was related to Shao Yunan. After all, Eunuch An and Jiang Kangchen were there when they came. Shao Yunan was waiting for Shopkeeper Xu to come to him, and the other party would definitely come to him.

Carrying the heavy food box, Shao Yunan pushed open the door that no one answered for a long time. Walking in and looking, sure enough, Cen Lao, Kang Rui and Jiang Kangning were each working on a book. Old Cen and Kang Rui simply forgot that they promised not to sleep and eat.

Shao Yunan took out twenty-six books. Four Books and Five Classics, that is a must. There are also fine works in Tang poetry, Song poetry, Yuan music, and Qing novels. In addition, such as Ouyang Xiu, Fan Zhongyan and other ancient famous works. These twenty-six collections are undoubtedly blockbusters for today's cultural and educational circles, opening a new door to the three present.

Shao Yunan put down the food box and said, "Old man, eldest brother, Dean Kang, it's time to eat."

The three did not respond.

Shao Yunan stepped forward a few steps, and shot very rudely.

"Angel!"

"Yun'an!"

Cen Lao, Jiang Kangning and Kang Rui were angry when the book was stolen from their hands.

"It's time to eat, it's already past lunch time. Old man, Dean Kang, you promised me that I wouldn't forget to eat and sleep. This book is here, and I can't run, so read it slowly."

"You child, what do you know, you can't slow down, you can't slow down!" Elder Cen anxiously took back the Book of Songs from Shao Yunan's hands, touching his baby, "I'm afraid I won't have enough time! Don't disturb my reading, I'll eat when I'm hungry!" Old Cen still had his usual calmness.

Jiang Kangning also took back the "Mencius" he was reading just now, and glared at Shao Yunan: "Don't make trouble!"

Shao Yunan almost didn't come up in one breath.

Kang Rui grabbed back his "The Analects of Confucius", waved his hand impatiently, and Shao Yunan took a deep breath: "Eat first! Otherwise, I will burn all these books!"

"You dare!" Three lions roared.

"Then you eat first! Those who break their word are fat!"

Old Cen's face flushed.

"Those who don't speak well will have longer noses!"

Kang Rui almost touched his nose.

"I didn't promise you anything." Jiang Kangning lowered his head to read.

"Okay. I wanted to give you a few more books, but if that's the case, then forget it."

Jiang Kangning raised his head, Elder Cen and Kang Rui's eyes lit up, and then Elder Cen became angry: "Do you still have something to hide?!"

"I guessed that you would do this. I don't call it hiding, I call it preemptive."

Well, the baby is in the hands of others, not obedient. The three of them were reluctant and devoured it, completely abandoning the elegance of the literati. Under the supervision of Shao Yunan, they ate all the food in the food box, and let Shao Yunan hand in the book without wiping their mouths.

"Drink some tea and rest for a while."

"…"

No way, the three suppressed their inner suffering and sat down to drink chrysanthemum tea. Shao Yun'an said: "No one is robbing you of these books. You read it without eating or drinking. Isn't it worth the loss when your body is exhausted? Combining work and rest is the best way to learn."

Old Treasure Cen touched the book and said anxiously, "If I were your age, I wouldn't be in a hurry. Brother An, I'm already fifty-eight as a father, and I don't know how many years I'll be able to live. As a father, I'm afraid to die. I didn't fully understand these books." Speaking of which, Old Cen's eyes turned red.

Shao Yunan felt sour in his heart, crouched down in front of Old Cen, and held his skinny hand covered with age spots. In modern times, people in their fifties are still prime years, not yet retired. But in the country of Yan, where the average age was only over fifty, Old Cen was already an old man.

"You're old, just relax. You're sure to live a long life. You still have at least fifty years to read these books."

Old Cen smiled, with relief.

"I promise you that I will let you read all these books in your lifetime. So you should also be obedient, eat and sleep well."

Old Cen was amused and laughed.

Jiang Kangning picked up the tea bowl: "Yun An, you are right. If you are exhausted, your body will waste time. Big brother, let's eat well and drink tea well."

After all, he took a sip of tea. Kang Rui didn't insist anymore, temporarily suppressed his anxiety and drank tea.

"That's right."

Shao Yunan stood up: "I still have a few books there, but I wrote them down in my head. I don't think you have time to read them any time soon."

"You take it first."

Old Cen didn't insist anymore.

Shao Yunan said, "I want some good copybooks for Qing Ge'er and Nizi to practice calligraphy."

Kang Rui immediately said: "I have it there. I write a letter, you take the letter and let someone go to my house to pick it up, and by the way, tell the housekeeper in my house that I have lived here for a long time, so don't disturb me if there is anything important. "

"Okay."

Jiang Kangning: "I also wrote a letter, you asked Ishii to send it to the county magistrate."

"Okay."

After talking with the three for a while, it was almost time to rest, Shao Yunan packed up the tableware and left. Jiang Kangning followed him out, and Shao Yunan asked, "Is there something wrong with big brother?"

Jiang Kangning pulled Shao Yun'an aside, and said in a serious and low voice, "Yun'an, these books must be given to my foster father as a brother. These books are too important to my country of Dayan!"

Shao Yunan said: "I thought of it when I took it out. But eldest brother, let's talk about it first. You and the old man can decide who you give it to, but you can't disturb my life and Brother Jing's life. You know, I'm not that old. Brother Jing has no ambition. We just want to live our own little life well."

"Brother promises you."

"Then what you want to do, eldest brother, you can do it yourself. By the way, I forgot to tell the old man and the old lady that she was going home, saying that she was seeing some other lady. When she came back at night, Brother Jing would send him off and pick him up again."

"I told Elder Cen."

"Brother Hezi and I made an appointment to go to his house to get sheep bones and make sheep scorpions at night."

"Go."

Shao Yunan left, Jiang Kangning watched him walk away, no one was seen, he let out a long sigh, and hurried back to the study.
