Chapter 2 Seeing Baochai for the first time(2/2)
"Yes.
Xue Pan was so pleased with himself that he took out the "Analects of Confucius" that he had "pointed out" from Jia Baoyu's hand and put it back, and said: "There are others, you can look at them as you like, I can point them out to you, don't be polite to me."
Jia Baoyu actually picked up another book. He wanted to see what other "knowledge" Xue Pan could teach him.
"This book, this book, let me take a look..."
Xue Pan took the book from Jia Baoyu's hand, turned it over and looked at it, feeling relieved.
Fortunately, he happened to recognize these two characters in the title of the book!
"This book is called "Zhuangzi". Don't worry about who wrote it. It's basically a story about a farmer raising fish in the north. There's nothing to read. You can try another book."
Xue Pan was very proud. Fortunately, he heard it when the teacher was teaching!
The "people" of the north have fish...the north has fishermen!
That's probably what it means.
Jia Baoyu put down the book silently, feeling overwhelmed by Xue Pan's knowledge.
"You don't want to read it?"
"Well, Brother Xue is well-read and very talented. I admire you, I admire you!"
Jia Baoyu had no intention of "evangelizing" with him anymore, so he walked to the tea table and sat down, pouring himself a cup of tea.
Seeing this, Xue Pan rolled his eyes, as if he had guessed something. He rushed to Jia Baoyu and asked, "Don't you like reading these serious books too?"
Jia Baoyu took a sip of tea. Originally, he had planned to inquire about the history of previous generations from Xue Pan, but now he did not dare.
You know, no news is much better than fake news!
There's nothing going on, so I'm going to sit here for a while and wait for someone to call me.
He didn't want Xue Pan to drag him to "preach and teach" him anymore, so he said, "It's like this. I don't like reading by nature. I really can't compare with Brother Xue in this regard."
"That's great!" Xue Pan almost jumped up with joy, but then realized that he was not the "scholar" he was before, and calmed down again, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes.
After a while, Xue Pan suddenly said mischievously: "Tell me the truth, do you only like to read those books? Hmm~?"
"what book?"
Jia Baoyu's expression changed. Maybe it was because they were both boys. Seeing Xue Pan's mean and mean expression, Jia Baoyu guessed it.
"Hey...just wait."
Xue Pan thought that Jia Baoyu was a member of the same group, so he looked outside and saw that there was no one in the courtyard, so he ducked behind the desk. He squatted underneath and fiddled for a while, and soon came out with his hands behind his back.
"This is the only copy that I spent a lot of money to get, brother. Do you want to read it?"
After Xue Pan came back, he closed the door first, then returned to Jia Baoyu, as if offering a treasure.
Jia Baoyu smiled. This was clearly the scene where the old driver’s roommate abducted the innocent boy to watch pornographic movies together.
"OK."
Jia Baoyu became a little more interested.
Xue Pan carefully took out what he was carrying. It was a small booklet, not much bigger than a palm. The pages were slightly yellowed and velvety, and Jia Baoyu had no doubt that Xue Pan often took it out to appreciate it.
"Be careful, don't let me break it."
Xue Pan gave some instructions before placing it in front of Jia Baoyu.
Jia Baoyu smiled and did not take it, but gently turned over the first page.
The first page is very blank, just a few words: The secret of the room.
Simple and direct.
Then I turned to the back, and sure enough I saw scenes of "goblins fighting" all over it.
Bedside, armrest table, window sill, pavilion. Looking at its shape, it is like a sword being sheathed to measure its potential, or like a dragon exploring the sea.
Jia Baoyu is happy, this ancient method of playing is not as simple as later generations thought...
It only took Jia Baoyu a few dozen seconds to flip through the twenty pages.
Apart from a little novelty, there really isn't much else to like about it.
Not to mention compared with the teaching videos of Japanese teachers, even compared with Korean comics, it is not comparable at all, it is very rough.
Xue Pan was very excited. While staring outside the door nervously, he turned back and asked Jia Baoyu: "How is it?"
Well, people are kind and kind in sharing good things with me, so it’s not good for me to offend others. But if I say it’s beautiful, Jia Baoyu feels it’s against my will, so he said: “Brother Xue’s book is good, but the ones I’ve read are comparable to
It’s much richer up there.”
Jia Baoyu said, pushing the booklet to him.
Xue Pan was shocked: "What, you also have such good things? There are many more?"
Xue Pan excitedly grabbed Jia Baoyu's arm and stared at him.
The look in his eyes is like that of a prisoner who has been looking up to the light for many years...
"This is natural." Jia Baoyu put him away calmly, waved his sleeves, and the wind was light and the clouds were calm.
Xue Pan believed it immediately. Everyone said that Duzhong is the most prosperous place in the world. Although this cousin looks young, he is from the capital after all. It is not impossible for him to have more connections than himself in this respect.
of.
No, I finally got such a good book and hid it secretly for a long time. I must not miss this opportunity!
"Good brother, can you show me your good things too? I will recognize you as my elder brother!"
Xue Pan held the chair where Jia Baoyu was sitting and sat down on the ground with inertia, with a look of begging. It seemed that if Jia Baoyu didn't agree, he would be unable to sit up.
Jia Baoyu didn't want this little chubby guy to be so obsessed with this thing. In order to avoid getting entangled with him, he had to continue to lie to him: "But I have put all the things in the capital. Brother Xue should also know that such good things should be hidden well."
Appreciate it, how dare you take it everywhere with you?"
When Xue Pan heard this, he was like an eggplant beaten by frost - it was gone!
Sighing regretfully, he slowly got up, looked at Jia Baoyu, hesitated to speak, and finally couldn't help it, and said: "Well, good brother, tell me, what are you looking at?
how is it like......??"
Xue Pan put his hands in front of him, stretching and rubbing them to make gestures.
Although she couldn't understand his gestures, Jia Baoyu could understand what he meant.
To be honest, Jia Baoyu actually doesn't like Xue Pan in his heart. He is a typical bully with the most bad taste, which really can't arouse his favor. It's just the so-called smiling person who doesn't hit the smiling face, and now he is a guest at Xue's house.
If you are willing to offend him for nothing, how can you possibly discuss "tiddy news" with him?
Just as he was about to find another reason to deal with him, a waiter came to tell him that food was being served at the back, and asked Xue Pan to take him there.
Xue Pan had no choice but to stop and hide his good things back to their original place, and took Jia Baoyu to the dining room.
On the way, I did not forget to say: "Good brother, if I come to the capital in the future, you must show me your good things!"
"Easy to say, easy to say."
