Chapter 664: Money is nothing but possessions
Then, she became attached to Minister Zhou, who would call her whenever he encountered a problem.
Today is no exception.
However, this time the old man was not asking about festival food, but about the Tao Te Ching.
In short, “···”
After hearing what the old man said, she was speechless.
"Sir, I don't understand this."
To be honest, as a philosophical work from the Spring and Autumn Period, the Tao Te Ching is very famous in her native world. Even if she has not read it, she has heard of it. However, asking her to translate the Tao Te Ching is a task that would really make her very difficult.
"Huh?"
Minister Zhou jumped up and said, "How could you not understand?"
His incredible voice reached Jian Yan's ears, and Jian Yan was speechless. "Sir, I am from the Empire. It's normal that I don't understand books like the Tao Te Ching. You can't just assume that I understand ancient Chinese culture just because I know festive foods like rice dumplings and mooncakes."
"Then what should we do? The Tao Te Ching is too profound. We are completely confused. As for classical Chinese and the like, we still have no clue after studying them." Minister Zhou's lost and frustrated voice came, and Jian Yan felt a little uncomfortable listening to it.
But no matter how uncomfortable she felt, she really couldn't help with ancient culture.
After listening to the whole process, Rabbit Dad slowly replied, "Let's find some external help."
"...Good idea, but where can we find external help?" Minister Zhou became excited, and Jian Yan trembled all over.
She looked at Rabbit Dad, her eyes wide in disbelief. Could it be what she thought?
Rabbit Dad nodded, indicating that you are right, it is exactly what you think.
"It's nice, isn't it?"
That's good indeed, but the problem is -
She whispered, "Are Grandpa Yingchun and the others willing?"
"Of course I do!"
Rabbit Dad also lowered his voice and whispered in her ear, “Don’t forget, the ruler of the empire is the descendant of Xiao Yu’er and Chu Chu, and Yingchun, Xiao Mo, and Meigui have special feelings for the Lu family.
What do you think was Yingchun's purpose in giving those ancient documents and materials to that little bastard Lu Jinxiu?
They hope for the good of the empire, and they also hope that the empire can find its roots again!"
In short, “···”
It’s a bit hard to believe, but when you think about it, it makes sense.
"Then I'll go tell Grandpa Yingchun?"
"Go! Go! Go!"
Before Rabbit Dad could say anything, Minister Zhou, who had listened attentively throughout the entire conversation, called out, "Jian girl, can you please let me talk to Grandpa Yingchun?"
"Let me ask Grandpa for his opinion first."
"Okay, sorry for the trouble!"
So Jian Yan ran to the kitchen and told Yingchun what had happened.
Yingchun: "...let me be the foreign aid of the Ministry of Culture?"
"Haha, haha, yes, isn't it that Minister Zhou and the others are stumped by ancient culture?" Jian Yan laughed dryly, which was horrible to watch. In fact, she was crying violently in her heart.
Really, if she had known her life would be so exciting, she would have said that she would learn more and become a literary giant.
However, it is too late to say anything now. It is a fact that she is a literary loser.
It is true that I can't help the Ministry of Culture, so I can only trouble Grandpa Yingchun.
"Ancestor Yingchun, please help us!" Minister Zhou started shouting anxiously on the other end of the phone again.
Yingchun said "oh" and asked, "Do you have a salary?"
"Huh?"
Minister Zhou was stunned for a moment, but then he quickly reacted and said, "Yes, yes, yes. I will apply for the highest salary for you. What do you think?"
"Money is something outside of the body."
Yingchun didn't agree directly, but said seriously, "But without money, absolutely not."
