After Wang Shijing left the royal family as he wished, when Shao Yunan was busy making kimchi and barbecue ingredients, on the auspicious day of the third day of February, Elder Cen hosted a banquet at the Cen Mansion, officially accepting Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan as adopted sons. As soon as this news came out, not to mention the shock it caused in Xiushui Village, the entire Yongxiu County was shocked by this news. A master in the education field wants to adopt two mud-legged sons. No matter how you hear it, it makes people dizzy.
But no matter how dizzy others are, Elder Cen's attitude shows that he attaches great importance to this matter. He even invited the magistrate of Chinan Prefecture. On the day of the third day of junior high school, cars and horses kept coming and going in front of Cen's residence. People of status and status appeared in front of the Cen Mansion with gifts. The masters of Baiyue Academy and the county school were also invited. Su Hongshan, Chen Dong and Cao Xuerong also came with their families. Only then did Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing realize that the three of them had extraordinary net worth.
Chen Dong's family is the richest man in Yongxiu County, and there are already three Jinshi in the family. The prefect of Guangnan Prefecture is Chen Dong's uncle, and Su Hongshan's family is a branch of Duke Lu's mansion in the capital. And the male wife of Dai Mingrong, the eldest son of the Dai family, and the only male daughter-in-law of the old general Dai is the second son of the eldest son of the Duke of Lu's mansion. Wang Shijing's boss, Dai Zhanxiao, is the son of Daiming Rongwei. Cao Xuerong's ancestors once came from Hanlin, the Cao family is also the gate master of Yongxiu County, and there are officials from the Cao family in the capital. Since ancient times, it is difficult for a poor family to produce disciples, Shao Yun'an has seen it. In modern society, it is impossible for everyone to have the same starting line, let alone in ancient times when resources were more limited.
Yang Yan, the magistrate of Chinan Prefecture, is Jiang Kangning's senior brother and one of Weng Lao's favorite students. If he wants to call Cen Lao "Master Uncle", he just came into office this year. From Shao Yun'an's point of view, it is definitely a great opportunity with a bright future. youth. Yang Yan did not express any doubts about the decision of Mr. Cen and his junior, and showed great respect. He also said a few words to Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing, which made Shao Yunan very puzzled. It was Jiang Kangning who told him in private that Yang Yan knew that the tea and wine were made by Shao Yunan, and Jiang Kangning planned to join hands with him to integrate the tea and goat milk fruit from Chinan Mansion, so that everyone could "promote and make a fortune" together. So Yang Yan behaved very "unusual". Shao Yun'an didn't know whether he should give Jiang Kangning a blank stare, is it really okay to just sell him like this
Almost all the celebrities from Yongxiu County came, and there were quite a few famous and high-ranking people from Chinan Prefecture, which was enough to show how big Cen's face was. The entire wedding ceremony was held in a grand manner but not extravagant. The gift of recognition presented by Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing is a copy of "Lanting Preface" by Wang Xizhi, a great calligrapher of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which Shao Yun'an personally mounted. When Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing slowly unfolded the copy of "Lanting Preface" in front of Cen Lao, the audience burst into exclamations, and immediately many people rushed forward regardless of the owner's wishes to observe the great calligrapher's proud work .
"Lanting Preface" is Wang Xizhi's proud work when he was fifty years old. Later generations commented on it as "Youjun font, a change from the ancient method. Its majestic and elegant spirit comes from nature, so it is regarded as a model in ancient and modern times." Therefore, calligraphers of all dynasties praised "Lanting Preface" as "the best running script in the world".
At this time, the country of Yan did not have the font of "running script", and there were many characters in it that were not found here. The copy that Juan Shao Yun'an once collected was originally a treasure of running script, so how could it not cause shocks? .
Elder Cen's eyes straightened at that time, and Wang Shijing, as the head of the family, said, "Father, this is my heart with Yun'an. Both Yun'an and I are orphans without father and mother. Today, Yun'an and I have a relationship." I have a father and a mother, and I hope that you will accept it with a smile."
"Ha ha ha ha ha… "
How could Mr. Cen not "smile" Na, he laughed so hard that the corners of his mouth almost cracked to the root of his ears. Amidst the envy and jealousy, Old Cen accepted the gift in a darling manner, and said "yes" five times in a row.
Immediately someone asked: "I don't know where my brother got such a treasure? Zhan thinks he has done a lot of research on the book, but he has never seen this kind of book style. Please give me your advice."
Shao Yun'an just kept smiling, and Wang Shijing replied coolly: "It's a gift of thanks from someone I saved. He said it was written by himself. I'm a vulgar person, I just think this word is beautiful. So I kept it. This framed work was done by my wife, Yun An."
The man immediately asked again: "Dare to ask me, do you know where this person is now?"
"I don't know. The person I rescued at Huxing Pass, where do I go to find out the whereabouts of this person?"
After Wang Shijing answered in this way, the man couldn't continue asking. Huxing Pass is a border pass. He saved a person in a battle at the border and got a gift. How can he track it down. Shao Yunan opened his mouth, smiling: "This is called 'good people get rewarded'. Brother Jing got such a special gift by doing what he wanted. But Brother Jing and I are vulgar people who don't know how to read, so we should leave it to him who knows how to read." The most suitable person. And the person who understands him is naturally my father."
Many people wanted to spit out Shao Yun'an. Your casual "good news" is a calligraphy they have never seen before, why is it so lucky!
Regardless of the "resentment" of those people, Mr. Cen snatched the gift quickly and accurately, grinning from ear to ear, then rolled it up carefully, and hugged it in his arms, as if he was afraid that others would snatch it. Someone was very resentful and poked Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing fiercely with his eyes. Wang Shijing pretended not to see it, but Shao Yunan really didn't see it. He held up another box and, together with Wang Shijing, faced Mrs. Cen who was sitting with Mr. Cen.
"Mother, Brother Jing and I honor you. I hope you like it." After speaking, Shao Yunan opened the box, and a woman's exclamation immediately sounded. Even Mrs. Cen couldn't hide the astonishment on her face.
Inside the box is a set of imperial green jadeite jewelry, including jade bracelets, jade earrings, jade necklaces, jade hairpins and jade rings. Only shopkeeper Zeng, who came to attend the wedding ceremony, had the honor to see the jadeite in the country of Yan, and now it is in Wei Hongwen's private collection. And this kind of imperial green jadeite, no one in Dayan can see it. The heart of shopkeeper Zeng who participated in the carving of this set of jade jewelry was pounding. Even though it was not the first time he saw it, he still couldn’t help the heartbeat speeding up. He still couldn’t forget the shock when Shao Yun’an found him with a large piece of rough jadeite .
Mrs. Cen tapped her mouth with a handkerchief, and said, "Brother An, this is too precious, you should keep it yourself."
Shao Yun'an said sweetly: "Mother, this is a set of jewelry carved from emerald stones that I asked shopkeeper Zeng to find for you. It was designed by Brother Jing and me. Don't you like it?"
Mrs. Cen couldn't hold back the smile lines at the corners of her eyes anymore: "Why don't you like it. This jewelry is too expensive." At the same time, other people present, especially the women, all looked at Shopkeeper Zeng. Shopkeeper Zeng clasped his fists in embarrassment in response, secretly complaining inwardly, is Yun An trying to kill him? Where did he get some emerald stones
Shao Yun'an picked up the jade bracelet, took a step towards Elder Cen, and handed it out with both hands: "Father, please wear this bracelet for mother."
Elder Cen knew that this was indeed Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing's intentions, and he and his wife truly treated him and his wife as parents to prepare such a great gift. He didn't refuse, took the jade bracelet, then got up and stood in front of Madam, under Madam Cen's shy smile, took Madam's hand and put the jade bracelet on Madam.
Shao Yun'an clapped his hands, and the others applauded as well, making Mrs. Cen nearly smack her face in embarrassment. At that moment just now, she thought of the night she married her husband. Oh, how old she is, it's really embarrassing!
"Hehehe..." Mr. Cen smiled, and said to his wife: "Madam, from now on, you and I have two more sons, you mother, you must love them well."
Mrs. Cen pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, took the box from Wang Shijing, and said to the two of them: "You two are hard-working children, this is your wish, mother, take it. From now on, I, Cen There are no parents and adoptive sons, they are all mother and father's children."
"Mother." Thinking of his mother, Shao Yun'an's eyes turned red, and he stretched out his arms to hug Mrs. Cen, "Mother, I have a mother."
Mrs. Cen patted Shao Yun'an's head lovingly, and Wang Shijing was also very moved.
Wang Shijing pulled Wang Qing and Nizi: "Grandpa and Grandma."
Wang Qing & Nizi: "Grandpa, Grandma!" The two children shouted loudly, with tears in their eyes, which made many people feel distressed. The guests who came here knew more or less what happened to the Wang family.
Jiang Kangning said at this time: "Yun'an, Shi Jing, today is your important day. Big Brother has nothing to give you, this is Big Brother's wish, don't hold it against you."
Shao Yun'an released Mrs. Cen, and he and Wang Shijing looked towards Jiang Kangning. In Jiang Kangning's hands was a pair of porcelain dolls, not a man and a woman, but two men. Looking closely, they looked like Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an. Shao Yunan walked over and took it very rudely, looked left and right, and said with a smile: "Thank you brother, I like it, I will put this in the room between me and Brother Jing. But brother, how can you lose Qing Brother and Nizi."
Jiang Kangning smiled helplessly: "Why not. It belongs to you two. Brother Qing and Nizi's eldest brother will give it to them later."
Shao Yun'an: "Thank you, brother!"
Wang Shijing: "Thank you, brother."
Wang Qing & Nizi: "Uncle Xie Shu!""
"Brother Shao, Brother Wang.
When they turned their heads, they saw Chen Dong, Cao Xuerong and Su Hongshan approaching. Since they lived in Wang's house for a few days, the three of them respected Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing very much. Shao Yun'an is full of literary talents, while Wang Shijing is a person who has risked his life for the country. The three also gave two gifts. What was given to Shao Yun'an was an ancient ink bought by the three of them, and what was given to Wang Shijing was a long knife made by a famous craftsman hired by the three of them. Both Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing liked it very much and were very grateful.
Next, all those who came to the relative recognition banquet gave gifts to Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing, and the two accepted the gifts softly. Wang Qing and Nizi, who had grandpas and grandmas, also received a lot of gifts. This time the family recognition banquet was very lively. The generosity of Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing also left a deep impression on everyone. After the banquet, many people stayed. Some wanted to read "Lanting Preface" again, and some women wanted to see the set of jewelry again. Shopkeeper Zeng and Shopkeeper Xu also stayed behind. Shopkeeper Zeng didn't dare to leave. Before the confession banquet was over, many people had already asked him about the set of jewelry. He was afraid that if he went out, he would meet with him To the sun of tomorrow.
To say that the happiest one is Shopkeeper Xu. Shopkeeper Xu really wanted to make friends with Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing. He was very embarrassed about his previous boss. Now the owner's difficulties seem to have a solution, although he still doesn't know what the solution is, but it is a lot easier. Now, Shao Yun'an has recognized Elder Cen as his father, and Wang Shijing has completely separated from the Wang clan. The life of these two people will only be better in the future.
—A group of people, those who go to the study with Mrs. Cen go to the study; those who go to the boudoir with Mrs. Cen go to the boudoir. Jiang Kangning was dragged away by Yang Yan, Kang Rui called Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing aside, put a box in Wang Shijing's hand, and said, "Brother heard that you suffered a lot when you got married. I am wronged, if there is a chance in the future, the two of you should do it again in a lively manner, and the senior brother will personally make a gift for the two of you."
Shao Yun'an's nose was hot: "Thank you, brother, brother Jing and I will definitely hold another wedding in the future. Well, for the wedding ceremony, I will kowtow to you and your parents."
Kang Rui smiled: "What does it look like to kowtow to me?" Then, he put on a face, "Then what happened to "Lanting Preface"?"
The two people who complained just now, one is Jiang Kangning, and the other is Kang Rui.
Shao Yunan immediately smiled and looked around. Then he whispered like a thief: "That one is actually a copy. The person who gave it to Brother Jing also got it elsewhere. No one knows where the real one is. I still have it over there. Would you like it?"
"Not yet!"
"whee."
After sending away the satisfied Kang Rui, Shao Yunan took Wang Shijing to look for shopkeeper Zeng and shopkeeper Xu. It was his intention to push the jewelry matter to Shopkeeper Zeng just now. The two of them came over, and shopkeeper Zeng, who was surrounded by his eldest daughter, young daughter-in-law, and old lady, seemed to have seen a savior. Shao Yun'an apologized to everyone, and pulled away shopkeeper Zeng and shopkeeper Xu who was watching the joke.
