Chapter 0014 Xiang Zu’s Notes (I)
Winter daytime is always particularly short, just about five o’clock in the afternoon, the sky outside is gradually dark, from the transparent glass door to look out, the street was only cleared in the morning, and a thick layer of snow, full of white snow reflected in the darkness, it looks very dazzling.
Zhuang Rui long breath, carefully will be in the hands of the worn out almost to the shelf of the book to the coffee table in front of, accurately speaking, this should be a manuscript written by the ancients, after a rough look, Zhuang Rui can determine that this is a former notes, the age should be the early Qing Dynasty, because in the manuscript, many times appeared in the years of Kangxi and Shunzhi emperors, and on the cover of the incense ancestor of the word in the words of that word, if Zhuang Rui did not guess wrong, should be the notes of the notation, due to breakage, only half of the font is left.
The preservation of this manuscript is not very good, in the first half of the manuscript, there are obvious due to insect moths, sweat, oil stains, dust and other things caused by mold, many fonts have become blurred, difficult to identify, the second half of the quality is good, but the language is written in the form of the literary form, obscure and difficult to understand, and many of the traditional Chinese characters Zhuang Rui do not know, can only be guessed with a blindfolded look, the general meaning of it is also clear! Its content is extensive, mostly for the author of the balance of their sayings, express their personal feelings.
The last few pages of the manuscript, but all are some poems, mostly some seven lines, but Zhuang Rui look a little depressed, because in Zhuang Rui when he went to school is a little parochial, strong in science and weak in liberal arts, for the poetry is also will memorize the hoeing day when the sun is high noon, or the light of the moon in front of the window and so on, can not see these poems on the manuscript of the advantages and disadvantages of the good and the bad, although in the back of the pages of poems underneath, all have a red seal script stamp. Although in the latter pages of the poems, there is a red seal stamp, but Zhuang Rui does not recognize the seal characters, and even more unable to find out the author’s origin from it.
A sweep of the eyes, Zhuang Rui see is grinning in and computer fight Liu Chuan, stood up and walked over to Liu Chuan rushed to the side, and then directly will be the game quit, open the web page to enter the word Baidu two words, clicked the carriage return, and so on half a day, but found that the computer page can not be opened a few words.
“I said rogue, you can’t access the Internet on this computer?” Zhuang Rui turned his head and asked to the side of Liu Chuan.
“Internet access? On what Internet ah! How to go on? Right, I heard them say that you can play games online, but I don’t know how to get it.” Liu Chuan scratched his head, obviously this question was too esoteric for him.
“Holy shit, why did you buy a computer if you don’t go online? Pig’s nose in the onion, pretending to be an elephant!”
Zhuang Rui couldn’t help but burst a foul mouth, more than 10,000 dollars of things, they have been down a number of times hard heartedly did not bother to buy, this guy bought only to play the game, and play or such a low-level game.
“There are several stores on the street have bought, buddy not buy is not let others look down on it, this we can not lose, right, wood, how to get on the Internet ah? You quickly give me to get, we also whole Internet, I heard a few of them say online games can be with the power, there is what is called the game of legend, the fire is not, that a few birds often blow in front of me, this time buddies can also be on the.”
Liu Chuan heard Zhuang Rui talk about the Internet, which came down the spirit, usually he died to save face, are mixed in a street, embarrassed to ask the boss of the next few stores, now hear Zhuang Rui understand this, pulling Zhuang Rui must now give him the whole Internet.
“Die aside to go, want to go online first to the Telecommunications Bureau to open the network, you usually have not been to the Internet cafe ah!” Zhuang Rui cried and laughed and replied.
“Alas, I this year is also the New Year’s time leisure point, which have time to go to the Internet cafe! You think money is so good to earn ah, right, wood, what do you want to go online?” Liu Chuan was deflated when he heard that he couldn’t go online now, and only then did he remember to ask Zhuang Rui why he wanted to go online.
“There are some poems on this manuscript, I don’t know who wrote them, I want to go online to check and see who the author of this manuscript is ……”
In fact, Zhuang Rui just wanted to call Uncle De, but think about it or hold back, he never cared about this before, now it’s good, one after another to ask for advice, it is inevitable to cause Uncle De’s suspicion, so he wanted to first figure out the author of this manuscript, and then inquire about the price of this author’s work, it’s easier, although it can’t be absorbed from the aura of this manuscript any more, but how to say that it was also spent 20,000 yuan Bought, Zhuang Rui also really a little meat pain.
Liu Chuan is not interested in poetry or anything else, and after thinking about it, he said: “Ask my mom! She taught history before she retired, she should know, we don’t sauna at night, go to my home for dinner!”
Stay in the store is also nothing, the two cleaned up a bit, pull down the roller shutter door on Liu Chuan’s car, but Zhuang Rui brought Liu Chuan’s cigarettes and took the past, in his words, that is a filial piety to the old man, you don’t want to think about the kid.
Liu Chuan’s family lives in the Public Security Bureau in the dormitory building built in earlier years, and now also bought out into a private house, the house is three rooms and two halls, an area of more than a hundred square feet, more than Zhuang Rui’s home, Liu Chuan’s father has not retired, in the Public Security Bureau as a deputy director of a bureau, busy all day long, which will not be at home.
Liu Chuan mother and Zhuang mother, the same, more than fifty years old when the internal retirement, usually is a person at home, Zhuang Rui this godson to go, but she was happy, busy to prepare dinner.
After dinner is ready, Liu father also came back, he has been from the mouth of Zhuang mother know Zhuang Rui in Shanghai, pulling Zhuang Rui a good boast, by the way, with the education of the son of the whole day does not work, angry Liu Chuan on the side of the teeth itchy, and hastened to sue up black, Zhuang Rui spent 20,000 to buy a shabby book of the thing to shake out.
Liu father and mother heard this just a little surprised, the book to go over to see the next, asked a few sentences after it did not say anything more, they know that Zhuang Rui from childhood is particularly opinionated, generally will not spend money, Liu mother also specifically to go to the study to Zhuang Rui to check the information, Liu Chuan at the side to see is dumbfounded, followed by tears ah! When he spent more than 10,000 to buy a computer, it was carried by the mother’s ear education for a whole day ah!
After dinner, Zhuang Rui satisfied with being full of grievances Liu Chuan sent home, not just rubbed a meal, the most critical is that the godmother to find out the “biography of the Qing Dynasty” book, there are a few poems recorded, and now the book in Zhuang Rui’s hands, ready to go home and slowly read it!
Took 20,000 yuan thrown to Liu Chuan, Zhuang Rui on this is to the mother told black guy out of the house, and then he bought the manuscript today told the mother of the thing, Zhuang mother knows her son in the pawnshop work, often come into contact with some of the antiques and paintings, but also did not say anything, just account for Zhuang Rui in the future to pay attention to the point, be careful to be cheated by others clouds.
After coping with the mother, Zhuang Rui hid back to his room, the manuscript and grandfather left the couplets together with the precious to the inside of the wooden box, grandfather left the wooden box is camphor wood to build, in ancient times is specifically used to save paintings and calligraphy and some of the ancient books of the good, if the manuscript has been collected in the camphor wood box, will not be dilapidated into the present appearance.
After cleaning up, Zhuang Rui drilled into the quilt, opened from the godmother to bring the “biography of the Qing dynasty”.
