Lin Xuan of the Red Chamber

Lin Xuan was a human being in two lifetimes, no matter how much he usually concealed it, like ordinary children, there are some differences. Given how much Mrs. Lin and Lin Ruhai attached importance to him, they would not fail to discover it. Fortunately, Lin Ruhai was also born precocious back then, yes Both Mrs. Lin and Lin Ruhai didn't think much about it, they only thought that he had inherited the genes of the Lin family, that he was talented and talented, so they valued and loved him more.

But this matter has advantages but also disadvantages. Of course, this disadvantage is for Lin Xuan himself. Ever since Lin Ruhai knew that he had excellent aptitude, he took him into the study and started to enlighten him. You must know that he was only three years old at the time. Okay, the children of other people's families are all six or seven years old when they are enlightened to study, and even the precocious ones start at the age of five. Compared with them, he was two full years earlier, and he sacrificed two full years. Happy time.

Regarding this, Lin Xuan was naturally full of complaints. When he was young in his previous life, the old man at home was always forcing him to learn this and that because he was too domineering, and he had no time to play. How could he be reconciled to not letting him make up for his lost childhood at all?

The fact that he wants to sneak out of the house today is his dissatisfaction with Lin Ruhai for letting him start studying so early, it is his silent resistance, and it is also his attempt to make up for himself, so that his childhood in this life will not be like his previous life. That way it is completely controlled by someone else.

Of course, Lin Xuan dared to do this, dared to have a happy childhood, and he also had the capital. If he didn't have this capital, he would study hard according to Lin Ruhai's wishes for his future life, instead of what he is doing now.

Lin Xuan's capital is that his aptitude is much better than Lin Ruhai imagined. Sometimes Lin Xuan himself wonders if this is the compensation given to him by God seeing that he died so early in his previous life, so that he not only He has a photographic memory and can fully understand the meaning inside. He only needs to read the book from beginning to end and he can memorize it and understand the meaning inside without being taught at all.

This kind of talent is really very beneficial for coping with the imperial examination. He can even foresee his easy life in the future, and he can have a bright future without hard work. Maybe such a golden finger is not too much in modern times. It is very useful, but in ancient times, in this era when one's title on the gold list can be used to honor one's ancestors, the usefulness is really too great.

However, this talent was tightly concealed by Lin Xuan. He was not afraid of anything else, but because Lin Ruhai would give him more homework when he found out. up.

Of course, there is another reason for this, but Lin Xuan himself is unwilling to admit it, that is, he is afraid that Lin Ruhai will regard him as a monster. After all, no matter how talented and intelligent, it is impossible to just read everything once, and someone who surpasses his peers is a genius , but if you surpass everyone too much, others will regard you as a monster.

The study room was extremely quiet, Lin Ruhai was seriously reading on his seat, and Lin Xuan practiced calligraphy quietly under Lin Ruhai's supervision. The copybook he was drawing at this time was Zhao Mengfu's "Thousand Character Essay", which Lin Ruhai personally chose for him One is to let him practice calligraphy, and the other is to let him familiarize himself with the thousand-character prose first, so that he can recite the words faster when the time comes.As for why Zhao Mengfu was chosen, it was a coincidence that Lin Xuan's two fathers actually liked Zhao Mengfu's characters no matter in the past or present.

I don't know why Lin Ruhai likes Lin Xuan, but his father in his previous life told him the reason why he likes Zhao Mengfu's characters, and used this to educate him a lot.

My father once said that he liked Zhao Mengfu's handwriting, regardless of regular script, but what he admired more was Zhao Mengfu's calmness of honor and humiliation.That is the unique "settling" after going through the ups and downs of the world. .

Zhao Mengfu has experienced a life of complicated contradictions and prosperity and embarrassment, but he still maintains a peaceful state of mind.

He experienced the changes of the Song and Yuan Dynasties all his life, and he was both an official and a hermit.After the death of the Song Dynasty, he became an official in the Yuan Dynasty as a relic of the Southern Song Dynasty, which caused many controversies at that time.There are even people who "thin their people and thin their books".His reputation was prominent in his later years, "the first-class official residence, famous all over the world".

Since he was five years old, he has been studying books for almost a day.He was 69 years old when he died, and he was still reading and writing, talking and laughing as usual until his death, which can be seen.

This kind of mentality is exactly what Lin Xuan does not have, and it is what his father tried his best to let him learn.

Lin Xuan's past life was smooth sailing. He had his father's support in his career, and he was capable. What setbacks, so Lin Xuan often acts sharply, leaving no room for it.

Lin Xuan's father was a remarkable figure, he built a huge business empire from scratch, no one would admire him.It is said that people become mature with age, but in fact, it is because they have experienced many things that they can see things and life more thoroughly. Lin Xuan's shortcomings are very clear to his father, and although his father treats him harshly, he also really loves this For the son, in order to make Lin Xuan change a bit, he often called him back to let him practice calligraphy. His father's original intention was to use this method to calm Lin Xuan's mood and not to show his sharpness too much.

What his father said was right, it is really not good to show your sharpness too much. Even though you know that Muxiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng, you should still leave room for people and things. This room is not only reserved for others, but also for yourself. Unfortunately, this truth was not really understood until Lin Xuan paid the price with his life.

It has been five years since Lin Xuan came to this world. During these five years, he has carefully recalled all the things he has done. Although he is still not completely sure why that person harmed him, he has some guesses. Knowing that the reason he guessed is good or bad for him, if he didn't guess it, he can let himself hate that person, but the reason he guessed makes him unable to hate, because he understands that some things are true. I am sorry for that person.

But everything is over, no matter whether his guess is right or wrong, he can't verify it anymore, he has come to this world, he can't go back, all the past, all the grievances and hatreds should be Letting go, thinking about these burdens is useless, one still has to learn to look forward and not let these things disturb one's mind, this is what his father once taught him.

When Lin Xuan finished tracing a few copybooks in his hand, his legs were a little sore and numb. Lin Xuan knew that he hadn't knelt for a long time, but he was too young now, and he just Kneeling for a while, he couldn't take it anymore, he glanced at Lin Ruhai quietly, seeing that he seemed to be reading seriously, probably not paying attention to himself, so he took the opportunity to move his body and rubbed his knees again.

To be honest, Lin Ruhai's actions today really confused Lin Xuan. He thought that after Lin Ruhai knew that he wanted to sneak out of the mansion, he would definitely take him to the ancestral hall and beat him up. He didn't do that, which made Lin Xuan feel even more uneasy.

Lin Xuan even began to doubt whether Lin Ruhai had some conspiracy, but after thinking about it again, he also felt that his idea was quite ridiculous. What kind of conspiracy could Lin Ruhai have? He has always said one thing in this family, he thought If you want to teach yourself a lesson, even the old lady dare not stop her, she has no scruples at all.

Sitting on it, Lin Ruhai could see everything below. Naturally, he could see Lin Xuan's small movements, but he didn't say anything, just pretending he didn't see it, and continued to look at the book in his hand.

By the time Lin Ruhai finished reading the book in his hand, more than half an hour had passed. Lin Ruhai glanced at Lin Xuan indifferently, and didn't want to continue to punish him, so he asked Lin Xuan to get up.

Lin Xuan staggered and dawdled for a long time before standing up. It was not on purpose that he wanted to make Lin Ruhai feel bad, so as to avoid the next punishment. It was because he was too young and spoiled all the time. Some of them grew longer, and their legs were not only numb and painful, but they also lost consciousness and couldn't stand up all at once.

After Lin Xuan stabilized his body, Lin Ruhai said lightly: "You have been out for a long time, go back, don't let the old lady worry."

Lin Xuan was taken aback for a moment, feeling a little confused in his heart. So, it's over, there's nothing else going on, when did Lin Ruhai become so talkative.

"What, is there anything else?" Lin Ruhai glanced at him lightly, if Hong Ying was not pregnant again, he was afraid of punishing Lin Xuan, and Hong Ying moved her fetus again under worry, how could he be so lightly Let this kid go.

Lin Xuan hurriedly saluted and retreated after hearing the words. It was rare that Lin Ruhai didn't pursue it, so he wouldn't be so stupid as to take the initiative to seek abuse.

Looking at the back of Lin Xuan leaving in a hurry, Lin Ruhai closed his eyes slightly, and tapped the table with his right hand lightly, looking thoughtful.
