Chapter 207: Unforgettable
Jiang Hao was grateful to the old man who had always taken care of him loyally, "Uncle Fu, what should I eat for breakfast."
"I picked some cold rice porridge in the vegetable garden, and it was still delicious." Uncle Fu said.
The Jiang family has a two-entry yard. Jiang Hao lives in the backyard and only lives in the main room. The other rooms are empty. Uncle Fu lives in the front yard gatehouse. From this yard, we can see that the Jiang family's life was still very good back then.
Now there are only two masters and servants left in the house, but they seem empty.
Jiang Hao poured some water into the well in the yard and washed it briefly.
When I arrived at the restaurant, there were already bowls and chopsticks on the table, boiling white rice porridge, crispy cold dishes, and a small plate of pickles next to it. Jiang Hao had a great time eating it.
After eating a bowl of Jiang Hao, he was not full, "Uncle Fu, let's have another bowl."
Seeing Jiang Hao return to the bowl, Uncle Fu smiled and said, "Hey, you just need to eat more. The young master used to only eat one bowl, that's not OK. Only by eating more will you become strong."
Jiang Hao thought to himself, I am now a brand new Jiang Hao, and I am very strong, so a bowl is naturally not enough.
After breakfast, according to Jiang Hao's past, he naturally went back to the house to continue reading. This has been his habit for so many years.
But today Jiang Hao didn't go back. He stood in the yard, touching the leaves of the golden osmanthus trees in the yard, thinking about his own affairs.
In fact, this guy with his identity is quite good at reading. Judging from the memories he received, all the Four Books and Five Classics, and various classics have been remembered in his mind because he has an amazing talent~~
Don't forget it after you've seen it!
Jiang Hao's memory is outstanding. As long as you read it once, you can basically remember it by 80 or 90 points. If you remember it in a key way, you can never forget it, just like an image is imprinted in his mind.
It is precisely because of this that he could easily pass two levels of the imperial examination when he first took the imperial examination at the age of 14. Later, the exam was interrupted, but it was just that he had something to do at home, not that he failed the exam.
In fact, in history, there have been many people who have the ability to remember everything they have, such as Wang Bo, one of the four heroes of the early Tang Dynasty, Zhang Heng, Zhang Song of the Three Kingdoms, Fei Yi, one of the four heroes of the Shu Han Dynasty... and Huang Rong's mother.
In fact, many of those who passed the top scorer have this ability.
In recent years, Jiang Hao has basically read all the books he can see. Now he is very confident in the imperial examination. The so-called accumulation of strength is basically his state. In his spare time, he also practices calligraphy and painting, so he has good calligraphy and painting.
When collecting the treasures of King Ning, this task is not urgent, and you can't come. You must have the opportunity to get in touch with King Ning to get in touch with those treasures.
The most urgent task now is to improve the living conditions at home. Although it can fill your stomach, it is too poor. He is a scholar and studying in ancient times was also very expensive.
Besides, he can't stay at home all day, opportunities will not fall from the sky, and he needs to find and create it himself.
Businesses make money?
The businessman in the Ming Dynasty was no longer a cheap business, and I and my children could also participate in the imperial examination. The Jiang family had opened a pastry shop before, and the businessman needed capital. Now the Jiang family has no financial resources, and Jiang Hao has just arrived again, so he can only temporarily give up this idea.
He thinks about it from his own perspective.
What can scholars do?
Teaching in private schools, writing letters on behalf of others, and helping others copy classics and Buddhist scriptures?
He was not even a scholar. He was not qualified to teach in a private school. He could not make much money by writing letters on his behalf. He could only make a hard money for his life, and it was extremely time-consuming and gave up.
Write?
The industry of the Ming Dynasty was booming. Three of the four classics were from the Ming Dynasty, and there was also a strange book called "Jin Pingmei".
It's one of the ways out, let's record it for now.
There is also selling calligraphy and paintings.
Jiang Hao wrote good calligraphy and paintings with deep charm. He is good at flowers, birds, fish and insects, and maids. However, only famous people are valuable. He is a little scholar, who would buy his calligraphy and painting collection?
Jiang Hao thought hard,
suddenly,
An inspiration flashed through his mind.
I can do this.
Then Jiang Hao found a piece of white cloth and spread it on the table, dipped it ink and wrote a line of large characters on it.
Looking at the time, at about nine o'clock in the morning, he went back to the house to tidy up, put on a blue cloth robe, square-toed shoes, and white silk scarf to his head. His long hairs naturally hung down.
Looking at the person in the mirror, he was tall and upright, with red face, white lips, sword eyebrows, starry eyes, and handsome god. Jiang Hao couldn't help but praise him.
"You can go out."
He rolled up the white cloth and came to the door and said to Uncle Fu: "Uncle Fu, I'll go out for a walk and come back at noon."
"Young master, go, I will prepare noodle soup at noon, remember to come back and eat it." Uncle Fu said.
"OK."
Jiang Hao walked out of the yard and saw the scene on the street. He suddenly felt like "the dragon came out of the abyss and entered the sea".
From now on, I'm here!
Jiang Hao walked on the street with his head held high, his pace was neither too fast nor too slow, and he couldn't stop looking around. He didn't feel anything when watching TV costume movies before, but now he has experienced it personally, and he feels that he has really reached another era.
Jiang Hao looked at others, and others were also looking at him, especially those big girls and wives. Some of them couldn't help but freeze when they saw Jiang Hao, and their hearts suddenly jumped. Although this young man was dressed simply, his appearance was too delicate.
Jiang Hao didn't care if he was seen. He walked all the way to East Street. This street was relatively prosperous. There were many shops on both sides, including the four treasures of the study and various books. In the past, Jiang Hao often came here to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones.
But today he was not here to buy study equipment. There was a small park in the middle of the street. The garden was not big, with only a few benches and a pavilion, which were usually used for rest. Jiang Hao came to the pavilion, and some people were already sitting here to rest and chat. Jiang Hao ignored them, took out a white cloth and shook it, spread it directly on the ground, and then sat inside the pavilion.
Everyone was curious and didn't know what was written on the white cloth. They came over to watch it, but they saw that it said:
"Portraits are painted in ten breaths", followed by a name "Nanchang Jianghao".
Everyone was very curious, and someone asked, "Scholar, you don't even bring ink, how do you paint?"
"Yes, how is it possible to make a painting in ten breaths?"
"This scholar is talking big,"
"Jiang Hao, this name sounds familiar."
"Oh, I remember, is it Jiang Runyu, who passed the county test at the age of fourteen, and the government test? He used to be a child prodigy, but now he has become a living selling paintings." Someone couldn't help but sigh.
These comments from people will not affect Jiang Hao at all. He looked at the people around him and said lightly: "Portraits are made of green and painted in ten breaths. It is not that I painted on the spot here, but that you sit in front of me. When I see you for ten breaths, I will record your appearance and body shape. When I go back to paint, I can come to pick up the paintings tomorrow."
