Chapter 384 of The Farmer's Field: Reciting Poems

Although Xiao Rixing'er and Yueyue are young, they are very smart and not afraid of strangers. When there are guests at home, they will not hide like other children, but will go to see curiously. Today, when they heard Aunt Lan say that the people outside were Qian Dafu and Zhou Zihao, they were not interested. It was only when they heard that there were strangers coming that they became curious.

Yueyue was the most curious of the three. When she heard the noise in the living room, she jumped off the kang, said she wanted to drink some water, and came out openly.

When Xiaori and Xing'er heard Yueyue calling them, they also got down from the kang and walked out one after another.

Xing'er, like Xiao Riyue'er, was very curious about Ye Wenru, whom he had never met. He looked at Ye Wenru and thought that this uncle was as handsome as his father, but not as majestic as his father. His father could kill a tiger, but this man could not. His father could carry him on his shoulders, but this man looked skinny and weak, and could not carry him as long as his father could. Therefore, his father was better.

Ye Wenru didn't know that in his son's heart, he had been compared with Shen Zian, and finally lost. A great minister of the country lost to a country bumpkin. Now when he looked at his son, his heart was burning, like melted ice, and everything soft turned into water.

Xing'er has now grown into a handsome young man, with fair skin, bright eyes, red lips and white teeth. He is dressed in emerald green clothes, with a small sachet and a small jade pendant hanging on his belt. It is eye-catching to see him, and you wonder whose little boy he is. His temperament is not comparable to that of an ordinary country boy. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a young master.

This is my son. He really looks like me when I was a child. He is still alive and well, and is standing in front of me again. God bless me!

After Xiaori and Xing'er came out, Ye Wenru's eyes immediately fell on Xing'er's face. Although Xiaori was also very good-looking, he was sure that Xing'er was his son because they looked so much like him. He looked at Xing'er with a lot of confusion in his mind. He kept thinking about these things and couldn't bear to take his eyes off Xing'er.

Xiaori and Xing'er greeted Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi first, then greeted Qian Dafu and Zhou Zihao, and finally greeted Ye Wenru. Yueyue just said, this is Uncle Ye. Say hello first, adults like polite children, and don't embarrass your parents.

Qian Dahu and Zhou Zihao both agreed with a smile. Ye Wenru also nodded. He wanted to say something, but he was too excited and couldn't say anything.

Ye Wenru watched his son and the child named Xiaori stand beside Shen Zian and Su Zhi, and looked at them with a very affectionate look. He thought that the Shen family really raised their children very well. Otherwise, the children would not be so affectionate with them. This joyful scene of children surrounding their knees made him feel a little sour and envious. He thought that his family had lost their children for many years, and this kind of joy had also been gone for many years. Finally, it would no longer be like that.

Shen Zian and Su Zhi looked at the children surrounding them, and Ye Wenru's excited eyes that almost never left Xing'er. They felt a little sad. Xing'er's days of surrounding them and calling them mom and dad were coming to an end. He would have to go back to his biological parents. He would no longer be surrounding others and calling them mom and dad. Although they knew that he was not their biological child, they still felt like their treasure was being taken away by someone else.

At this time, Liu Yin had already brewed tea. It was the plum blossom tea that Su Zhidong had just made, and it had a very elegant aroma.

"Mrs. Shen's tea-making skills have become even better. This tea has a unique flavor. Good tea."

Mr. Qian took a sip of tea and praised it. He had also received two bamboo tubes of tea from Su Zhi. He usually drank one cup a day and had finished it. He had no time to ask Su Zhi for more. Now he drank better tea. He felt both enjoyment and sighing. He thought that although the lady of the Shen family was born and raised in the countryside, she was really a wonderful person. Not to mention that she was blessed by God and could get the favor of the holy beast, she had a pond that never dried up and could make it rain, she knew medicine, her brain was flexible and could think of so many things that others could not think of, and she had endless ways to make money. Just her cooking and tea-frying skills could make her live a very good life. He was willing to spend a lot of money to buy this tea, but it was a pity that she was unwilling to make it in large quantities!

It was the first time for Zhou Zihao and Ye Wenru to drink this kind of tea. Their eyes lit up after taking a sip. When they heard Qian Dahu say that this was made by Su Zhi herself, they secretly admired Su Zhi.

Su Zhi smiled slightly and said, "It's just a trivial trick, not worth mentioning."

When Ye Wenru heard Su Zhi's elegant answer, he thought that since he met Su Zhi, this woman has always been very dignified and polite, not like a country girl at all. Now she speaks even more elegantly. His son is really lucky to be raised by her. Although the tea is good, his thoughts turned back to his son, and his eyes naturally turned away.

Xing'er wondered why this uncle was always staring at him. Was there something bad on his face? But he would not touch his face, because his mother had teased him like this before, and he would not be fooled.

Ye Wenru saw Xing'er looking at him strangely at first. He was about to smile at him, but Xing'er turned away. If he saw correctly, the little kid raised his chin and squinted his eyes. It was indeed his son. These two actions were what he was used to. His heart was even softer, and the fatherly heart was completely overflowing. He thought that after his son returned, he must raise him well and let him become a more accomplished person than himself!

Qian Dafu naturally knew that Ye Wenru's mind was all on Xing'er, and he also intended to make friends with this senior official in the court. His son could not take the exam this time, but he could still go next time. Knowing such a person was the best thing. And even if Qian Guang did not become an official, it was a good thing to know this important official in the court. Therefore, he smiled and deliberately talked to the three children.

"Xiao Ri, Xing'er, Yueyue, were you reading in the house just now? What were you reading? Talk to Grandpa Qian about it."

Xiao Ri said, "My mother is teaching us to recite poetry."

Xing'er said, "The name of this poem is 'Walking Alone by the River in Search of Flowers'."

Yueyue said: "Mom said we should memorize it, and we all memorized it now."

Qian Dafu smiled and said, "Really? You all can recite it now. Xing'er, can you recite it for us? Let us listen to the poem while drinking tea. This is also a great pleasure in life."

What kind of fun was Su Zhi thinking? What kind of fun is it to listen to a few little brats reciting poems? In fact, she just wanted Ye Wenru to understand Xing'er better. But she also understood Ye Wenru. He had never looked away from Xing'er since she appeared. His eager look really ruined his face that looked smart. He was also a father who missed his son too much. She thought Xing'er would be fine if she went back with him, and the worry and sadness of losing her son also faded a little. She would be relieved if Xing'er was fine.

Xing'er glanced at Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi, and only when Su Zhi nodded did he stand up and recite the poem in a clear and loud voice.

As soon as Xing'er finished reading it, Zhou Zihao and Qian Dahu gave her face and praised her again and again.

"The path to Huang Si Niang's house is full of flowers, thousands of them are hanging low on the branches, lingering butterflies are dancing, and the free and graceful orioles are singing." Ye Wenru recited these four lines of poetry and found them catchy and beautiful. He looked at Su Zhi and asked, "Just now the three children said that you, Madam Shen, were teaching them. Where did this poem come from? Who wrote it?"

Su Zhi thought that scholars were all the same. When they heard a poem, they would ask all sorts of questions. She would not say that this was her own poem. She smiled and said, "This was taught to me by an old man I met by chance. I don't know who wrote this poem."

Su Zhi didn't want to say Du Fu's name. She felt that it would be weird if she said this name. A person who did not exist in this time and space at all made her feel as if time and space were out of place.

When Ye Wenru heard this, he did not ask any further questions. There are many talented people in this world who are unknown, and this was probably done by a scholar who did not want to be famous.

Next, Qian Dahu and Zhou Zihao talked to the three children on various topics, and let Xing'er talk more, just to let Ye Wenru know more about this son. Otherwise, looking at his eager eyes, it was really uncomfortable to see. As the people who came with him, they naturally had to help him and let him talk to his son more to relieve his longing for his son after not seeing him for many years. And Shen Zian and Su Zhi did not hold back. Before telling Xing'er that this man was his biological father, it was also a good thing to let him know a little about Ye Wenru.

After chatting for about an hour and a half, Ye Wenru got to know Xing'er. He thought that his son was growing up well even though he didn't stay by his side. When he looked at Shen Zian and Su Zhi again, he was more grateful than before.

"Stay here for lunch today. I'll go cook. Husband, you can take the children and the guests for a walk in the garden."

Su Zhi watched Ye Wenru and Xing'er talking, and the more she watched, the more she felt that Xing'er and this man were indeed natural father and son. Their expressions when they talked were similar from time to time. She thought that they should get to know each other soon, but before that, they still had to get to know each other more. It was not good for them to sit here all the time, they had to go out for a walk.

Shen Zian stood up after hearing this. When the wealthy people heard what the host said, they also stood up. Naturally, they would not refuse to have a meal here. They just said some politeness and followed Shen Zian out.

Is this chapter a bit dull? I have deleted and revised it several times, but it is still the same. It seems that it is impossible to have new ideas and climaxes in every chapter.
