Chapter 97 Like-minded
Under the command of the little girl Cheng Yiyuan, the middle-aged man tried all the T-shirts of color, and finally, under her strong suggestion, he chose a red one.
"Dad, I'll help you choose the color. You can choose the word you like, so as not to say I'm too ** and undemocratic."
The little adult-like words made Du Chunhua and Xiao Wu laugh and almost laughed out loud. The man seemed to notice it and turned around and smiled at them with a little embarrassed look. Then he chose a T-shirt with two lines of cursive characters printed on it and said, "Just this one."
"What is it written on it? It's messy and looks pretty, but I don't know a single word."
"This is two lines of poetry from Huaisu, a great calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty, in "Self-Portraits". The man pointed to the words that were flowing on the T-shirt and said, "Come to the world with madness, and get the true nature in drunkenness."
The little girl Cheng Yiyuan has a relatively obvious dialect accent, and the same is true when this person talks to her, but when he recites these two lines of poetry, he uses pure Mandarin, his mouth is clear and ups and downs, giving people a very literary feeling.
As a calligraphy, cursive script is not written randomly with your eyes closed, but has a set of strict simplified standards. People who don’t understand find it difficult to identify it, but those who understand it are not. This one in this batch of T-shirts is only cursive. Many people say that the characters are beautiful, but there are almost no one who can recognize it as "Self-Portrait". Du Chunhua encountered some surprises from his soulmate and asked, "Have you practiced calligraphy?"
"Yes, I practice playing when I'm fine, mainly hard pen calligraphy. I don't practice much brush, and I have only read some more famous inscriptions and calligraphy."
Cheng Yiyuan was very lively and active, and was brave. He jumped straight from the desk to the podium more than one meter away from her. He picked up a piece of chalk and said proudly: "My dad is a high school special teacher. The chalk and fountain pen are written very well! Dad, please write a few words for them to see."
The man was very humble, and waved his hand with a smile, indicating that he should not be as knowledgeable as a child. Du Chunhua had been a teacher before and was more sensitive to this profession and asked, "So your father is a teacher, do you teach Chinese?"
"No, he teaches mathematics." Cheng Yiyuan's mood changed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he changed from pride to contempt. He shook his head and shook his braids and said, "Dad, you are too stupid. Isn't algorithm the usage of arithmetic? You, a special teacher who teaches mathematics, have only done 3 questions. I feel embarrassed to say it!"
"Little sister, algorithms are not the usage of arithmetic. There is a big difference between the two." Xiao Wu thought the little girl was particularly fun and asked with a smile: "Cheng Yiyuan, do you have a younger brother or sister named Cheng Eryuan?"
"I'm just alone, without younger brothers and sisters, what's wrong?"
"Your father is a math teacher, and your surname is Cheng, so your name should come from the univariate equation. Since there is a univariate equation, there will definitely be a binary equation." Xiao Wu Hu guessed to be confused and teased her: "Let me guess your father's name, is he called Cheng Fang?"
"No, you guessed it wrong. My dad's name is Cheng..." Cheng Yiyuan stopped talking halfway, and pushed her father from behind, saying, "Dad, tell them yourself, my sister-in-law said I can't call your name directly."
"My name is Cheng Siwei, one, two, three, four, the Wei who maintains peace." Cheng Siwei was very polite. While introducing himself, he stepped forward and shook hands with Du Chunhua and Xiao Wu, and said, "I'm very happy to know you."
"My name is Xiao Wu, she is my sister." Xiao Wu introduced Du Chunhua vaguely, and then joked: "You father and daughter are really interesting. They have numbers in their names. Now, high school mathematics has started to teach four-dimensional space?"
"Xiao Wu, I think you guessed wrong again. Teacher Cheng's name should come from "Guanzi"." Du Chunhua likes to copy classical classics when practicing calligraphy, and recited it casually: "There are four dimensions in the country. If one dimension is clear, it will be inclined, two dimensions will be dangerous, three dimensions will be overturned, and four dimensions will be destroyed. If the inclined can be upright, dangerous can be safe, it can be overturned, and it can be destroyed, and it cannot be wrong again. What is the four dimensions? One is ritual, two is righteous, three is integrity, and four is shame."
Cheng Siwei was a little surprised. He looked at Du Chunhua deeply and said with a smile: "Actually, I only know that there are words such as etiquette, integrity and shame in "Zizhi Tongjian". The four dimensions of the country are not open, and the country is destroyed. This is the first time I heard of the original text of "Guanzi". This is Ms. Wu who is really knowledgeable."
"My surname is not Wu, my surname is Du, and my name is Du Chunhua. Xiao Wu is my best friend, so he usually calls his sisters."
"Oh, then I'm wrong, sorry."
At this time, Cheng Yiyuan jumped off the podium, gently kicked the big black dog who was resting on the ground, and then jumped over with it, saying to Du Chunhua, who always hugged Lin Jinyan, "Auntie, don't be afraid. My Xiaotian is very obedient. He really doesn't bite people. If you don't believe me, please touch it."
Du Chunhua tentatively reached out his hand and gently touched the back of the big black dog. The black dog did not react, but just squinted his eyes, as if he was very enjoyable, so he felt relieved a lot, let go of Lin Jinyan's hand, let him play with Cheng Yiyuan, and asked, "What kind of breed is this?"
"This is a Guanzhong plum dog, a very excellent hunting dog in ancient times. In the "Ten Horse Dogs" painted by Lang Shining of the Qing Dynasty for Emperor Qianlong, except for a Tibetan mastiff, the rest are plum dogs." Cheng Siwei has a lot of knowledge and introduced: "This dog was taken home by Yuanyuan when he was born. It's almost a year now. It's very smart and understands human words. It will only chase after him when his owner ordered it or encounters a rabbit. He is usually very gentle."
"Why aren't it more suitable for children to raise such a big dog, a pug or a Shih Tzu?"
"I took two senior high school classes last year. I was very busy with work and often had to go home after 11 o'clock in the evening. Yuanyuan was alone at home, so I felt more at ease with raising a larger dog."
Du Chunhua said softly, and Xiao Wu asked, "What about her mother?"
Cheng Siwei did not answer, but just shook his head gently. Cheng Yiyuan snorted a big shot next to him and said, "She thought my father was too poor and went to Guangdong with a rich man. She hadn't been home for several years."
This is too much...
The TV series is not so tortuous...
Xiao Wu is a home girl, not good at hiding emotions, and her surprise is beyond words. Seeing that the atmosphere is a little awkward, Du Chunhua helped to make up for it and changed the topic: "Teacher Cheng, are you a local netizen in Yuncheng?"
"I can only count. I used to be a teacher at Jinshan County No. 1 Middle School. I was transferred to Yunda High School last month and only moved here for more than ten days. I can't even say a word of Yuncheng local dialect."
When Du Chunhua used to work in the Youth Palace, he often contacted the parents of students and was familiar with primary and secondary schools in Yuncheng City. He knew that Yuncheng University Affiliated Middle School was a key provincial middle school with a high admission rate. Jinshan County is a poor county located in a mountainous area. He was able to switch jobs from a place to teach in a key middle school in a provincial capital city. This shows that Cheng Siwei's teaching level is very extraordinary, and he couldn't help but admire him.
Xiao Wu probably felt that being idle is also idle, so it would be better to find something to do. After chatting for a few words, he started to cheer: "Teacher Cheng, Cheng Yiyuan just said that your chalk handwriting is beautiful, so why not write a few for us to see? Sister Chunhua's handwriting is also very well written, so you can communicate."
"In the eyes of children, everything is good for parents. In fact, I write in average, so I should not let it go, so as not to make a laugh."
Cheng Yiyuan, who was using a big black dog as a model and was doodling on the blackboard with Lin Jinyan, turned his head and said, "Dad, be modest when you should be modest, and be modest when you should not be modest, especially in front of beautiful women. I even understand this principle. Why are you pretending to be confused?"
Xiao Wu smiled and leaned back and clapped and praised: "Cheng Yiyuan, you are so smart."
Du Chunhua also smiled so hard that he couldn't stop and said, "Teacher Cheng, your daughter has spoken, just write a few words to let us see."
Cheng Siwei smiled bitterly and made a gesture of knocking on his head, then walked up to the podium, picked up a piece of chalk, and wrote the two lines of poetry on the T-shirt on the blackboard, but it was not used for cursive script, but regular script, with clear strokes and neat handwriting, which was indeed very beautiful.
When he finished writing the first line of poem, Xiao Wu was a little surprised and whispered: "Sister Chunhua, his words are a bit similar to those of Mr. Du."
Du Qiu learned calligraphy from Chu Suiliang. As one of the four great masters of the early Tang Dynasty, Chu Suiliang has a high status and a profound influence in the history of calligraphy. There are many people who like his style, so Du Chunhua was not surprised, but felt it was a little kind and said, "Teacher Cheng must have practiced the "Preface to the Holy Teaching of Yanta". I should have many common topics with him."
