When Jin Shifan and his grandson Jin Zhongyi came to Anping Houfu as promised, they were really startled by the scene in front of them.
Thirty or forty men were arranged in two rows, lying upright on the ground, their feet rushing outwards and their heads rushing in, neatly arranging a pomp and circumstance to welcome guests.
It's scary, if it weren't for these people opening their mouths to inhale from time to time, they would have thought they were walking into a pile of dead people.
"Grandpa, this honor guard of Anping Houfu is really chic, my grandson has never seen someone lying on the ground to greet guests, this should be the legendary five-body throwing to the ground, right?"
Jin Zhongyi was a young man with a strong heart, and he stood in front of the door of Anping Houfu, and said it bluntly in front of Zhou Zhen, Zhao Rui and others.
In an instant, all the people who were still awake on the ground were ashamed to death, and a few of them even twisted their necks and stared at Jin Zhongyi viciously, looking like they wanted to devour people.
"Yi'er is cautious!"
Jin Shifan glared at the little grandson beside him, didn't he see that most of these people were wearing soap clothes from the government, and they were not afraid of being hated by others for talking nonsense.
But then again, this Anping Houfu seems to be very awesome, even the servants of Yongzhou Mansion are beaten, and they are so grandiose to put people out and embarrass people, this is no longer ordinary arrogance, this is completely the face of the entire Yongzhou Mansion in the street.
"What are you afraid of!"
Jin Zhongyi said disapprerovingly: "It's not us who put them here."
However, this An Pinghou is really interesting, he can come up with such a unique way to rectify people. ” Jin Zhongyi's face showed a trace of admiration, Jin Shifan looked very tired, this is not chic, this is reckless, is it good, so arrogant, sooner or later it will suffer.
This is Chang'an City, there are many powerful people like dogs, and the family is as cheap as hair, except for the emperor, no one dares to be too arrogant.
Jin Shifan has worked in Chang'an City all his life, and he has seen all the big names such as Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, the eldest grandson Wuji, and Cheng Yanjin, but he has never seen any of these powerful ministers dare to openly oppose the official servants like this.
It's easy to break just now, and if it's too much, you'll be beaten into a fool every minute.
Yongzhou Mansion is not only the errand of the Yanei, they also control the garrison army in the city, they are really in a hurry, people directly come to the army to press the border, no matter how awesome people have to kneel.
If possible, Jin Shifan really wants to turn around and leave now, and he won't cause trouble without entering the door of Anping Houfu.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense here, get in!"
Jin Shifan glared at his grandson again, and took the lead in carrying into the door of the house, because there was a famous sticker, so the family of the house did not stop them, and a porter took them to the side hall to rest for a while, and then went inside to report to the grandfather.
"Grandpa, what do you want to do when you call us here, do you want to make furniture or carve seals?
Can we see An Pinghou in a moment?
Jin Zhongyi couldn't stay idle, sitting on the chair of the guest and looking around.
Their Jin family is a family heirloom with wood art, and they have no other specialties except for this carpenter's craftsmanship.
An Pinghou invited them over at this time, and nine times out of ten, it was to create some fine wood art.
Thinking that he would be able to see An Pinghou who dared to fight against Yongzhou Mansion later, Jin Zhongyi was faintly excited in his heart.
"I heard that An Pinghou is only a few years older than me, and he is already a marquis at a young age, which is amazing!"
"And that blackboard, it was originally our carpenter's work, but before An Pinghou, who would have thought that such a small wooden board could still do a great thing of teaching and educating people?"
Jin Zhongyi's mouth kept stopping, a little wanting to let go of himself, Jin Shifan coughed lightly, and sharply accused: "Don't say more!"
” Jin Zhongyi lightly stuck out his tongue and obediently closed his mouth, but his eyes were still looking around, and he didn't stop for a moment.
Young people are like this by nature, Jin Shifan is too lazy to talk about him anymore, he just hopes that when he arrives at An Pinghou in a while, he won't be so detached and disgusting.
"Oh, isn't this Brother Jin, I didn't expect it to arrive so soon, it's a long way to go, forgive your sins!"
Wang Chao suddenly came in from outside the door with his big bald head, and when he saw Jin Shifan, he couldn't help grinning, and bowed his hand from afar to salute.
Seeing him, Jin Shifan's face couldn't help but tremble, stood up from the chair lightly, and returned the salute: "I have seen the king commander, the king commander is calling, and I, Jin Shifan, dare not slack off even if I have the courage to do so." ” The resentment seems to be very heavy, but the dynasty doesn't care at all, as long as the person comes, it doesn't matter if he is in a happy mood or not.
"You're welcome, you're welcome!"
Wang Chao didn't hear the dissatisfaction in Jin Shifan's words, turned his head and glanced at Jin Zhongyi next to him, and said: "This is Ling Sun, it is really a talent, Brother Jin has a successor, congratulations!"
” Jin Zhongyi looked proud, feeling that although this big bald head looked a little vicious, he was quite discerning, and he was not bad.
I don't know, it's the big bald head in front of him who thinks it's good, and he sent a message to his grandfather before, and if he didn't come to Anping Houfu in the afternoon, he would beat his whole family.
Otherwise, how could Jin Shifan, who had already been in the mountains and live at home for a long time, come to this newly promoted Anping Houfu like a wind?
"Alright."
Jin Shifan asked the dynasty in a straight voice with an expressionless face: "What is the matter with calling my old man over, Commander Wang should say it directly." ” Wang Chao smiled: "Naturally, there is a big deal to take care of my brother."
In addition, I am no longer a commander, and now I am just a small guard in this Anping Mansion, so my brother should not be called a commander anymore, which is a joke. ” Jin Shifan was a little surprised, and couldn't help but ask the dynasty out loud: "So, those people at the door are also from your handwriting?"
” Wang Dynasty smiled proudly: "The small skills of carving insects are not enough to worry about."
The main reason is that they Yongzhou Mansion deceived people too much, and they had to teach them some lessons. ” Jin Shifan was stunned.
No wonder he felt some inexplicable familiarity when he saw the group of errands just now, they were all unjointed, and they could only lie on the ground obediently without moving.
"Can An Pinghou know about this?"

"Naturally, the idea of putting people in front of the door is personally instructed by An Pinghou.
Well, now it seems to be working pretty well. ” Jin Shifan was a little dizzy.
Sure enough, if the family doesn't enter the door, it seems that this An Pinghou is the same as the dynasty, it is not a good thing.
It's a shame that he was worried just now that the dynasty has always been bold and lawless, and staying in Anping Houfu will pit people Anping Hou, but now it seems that he is completely overwhelmed, these two people are a pair of bedbugs, and they can't talk about who is pit whom.
"Let's get down to business, what the hell is the old man going to do!"
Jin Shifan has run out of patience, and now he just wants to quickly understand the purpose of the dynasty, and then hurry to finish it and go home.
Now this Anping Houfu is definitely a place of right and wrong, and it will be unknown if you stay for a long time.
Although he is old, he has not lived enough at all, and he does not want to find excitement.
"It's the same as before, it's an acute child."
Wang Chao shook his head and chuckled, and said, "Master Hou is waiting in the study, come with me!"
” Anping Houfu is an old mansion, which was the palace of the king of the previous dynasty, and no one has lived in it for nearly 20 years.
Although the house has been cleaned and repaired these days, it still looks a little shabby.
Jin Shifan's mind moved slightly, this time An Ping called him here, could it be just to repair this old mansion?
After several turnovers, the three of them finally came to the quiet place in the study of the back house, and the dynasty was the first to go in and say goodbye, and then came out to lead the two grandchildren in.
The study is very large, sitting west and facing east, which is the classic layout of the aristocratic mansion in the former Sui period, and it is not surprising that Jin Shifan has seen too much of this.
On the innermost side of the study, in front of a five-foot-long square bookcase, a young man who looked extremely thin but was extremely energetic was sitting peacefully, holding a jade pen and bowing his head to the desk.
Jin Zhongyi looked up curiously, and after seeing Li Feng's demeanor, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart, which was very different from the powerful hero he had thought of before.
It turned out that the real An Pinghou turned out to be such a thin person.
Sure enough, people can't look good, before seeing An Pinghou, who would have thought that a person with such a thin body and mediocre appearance would be able to make a domineering move against the Yongzhou Mansion.
"I've seen An Pinghou!"
The two ancestors and grandchildren stepped forward to salute, Li Fengman put down his pen and raised his head, and his eyes swept towards the two.
One old and one young.
The old man had a kind face, steady and measured, and stood there with his bow, steady as an abyss.
Less lively and witty, two eyes looking around, curiosity.
On his back, he also carried a brown toolbox about the size of a doctor's medicine box, old but thick.
"I heard that Jin Lao is good at carving, and when it comes to the skills in his hands, no one in the entire Chang'an City can beat him."
Li Fengman smiled and complimented Jin Shifan a few words, "This time I took the liberty of inviting the old gentleman here, or there are many rudenesses, if you are offended, I hope the old gentleman will not be blamed." ” Li Fengman knows very well that the dynasty is a person, what kind of old friends in the world, and what kind of heart, ninety percent of them are probably boasting about themselves.
Looking at the trace of depression and reluctance on Jin Shifan's face now, he can also think with his toes that the reason why he was able to invite Jin Shifan to the mansion was that the means he used were definitely not so glorious.
Jin Shifan smiled dryly, bowed his head and said: "An Pinghou said that he laughed, the old man is just a lowly craftsman, where does he come from to offend or not, what do you command, you just say it directly, what can be done, the old man will never shirk." ” It's already here, and there's so much to do, so let's get straight to the point.
Li Fengman nodded and chuckled, there was resentment in Jin Shifan's words, it seems that his guess was correct, the dynasty did not use any serious means to invite people.
But now is not the time to think about this, Li Fengman reached out and picked up the piece of paper he had just written, and handed it to the nearby dynasty, asking him to show it to Jin Shifan.
"This is a short sentence of a poem I just copied, I don't know if Mr.
Jin can carve it on a wooden board, so that a certain long person can see it."
Jin Shifan understood in seconds, An Pinghou wanted to try his craft and see if he could meet his requirements.
Anyway, no one has questioned him for years.
A trace of nameless anger surged in Jin Shifan's heart.
"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint An Pinghou."
Jin Shifan didn't answer the paper, bowed slightly, and said apologetically: "The old man is old, in fact, he has already put the knife down when he was a year ago."
Now that all the skills of my Jin family have been passed down to my grandson Zhongyi, if you can trust it, you can let him try it. ” Jin Zhongyi also looked at Li Fengman angrily at this time, obviously he was very embarrassed by Li Fengman's doubts and temptations to his grandfather.
The child's joy and anger are all written on his face, and it is difficult not to see it.
Li Fengman glanced at Jin Shifan, but he didn't expect this old man to be quite proud, and he went straight to work without saying anything.
"It's fine."
Li Fengman didn't force it, his eyes moved to Jin Zhongyi, who was still a little childish, and said lightly: "No matter who it is, as long as it can meet my requirements, everything is easy to say." ” Wang Chao squinted his eyes and glanced at Jin Shifan for a moment, then reached out and handed the poem written by Li Fengman to Jin Zhongyi.
Jin Zhongyi stretched out his hand to take it, stared at it, and couldn't help but chant softly: "Song of Tomorrow Tomorrow after tomorrow, tomorrow is so much.
I'm going to live tomorrow, and everything will come to pass.

If the world is tired of tomorrow, spring will go and autumn will come.
Look at the water flowing eastward, and watch the sun fall in the west at dusk.
How can a hundred years be tomorrow?
” Is this also poetry?
It's just a matter of not suppressing the rhyme, how to read it as if the old man next door is preaching to him, straightforward and easy to understand, simple and clear, not at all as complicated and obscure as the poems he has read before.
Kim Joong-yi felt very novel, he had never seen such a simple and straightforward poem before.
When Jin Shifan and Wang Dynasty heard this, their bodies couldn't help but be shocked, and they felt a lot in their hearts, and each of them had a deep understanding of the exhortation in the poem.
Unexpectedly, An Pinghou doesn't look very old, but his perception of life is more profound than those of them who are old.
"Although the number of words is a little more, it still doesn't bother me!"
Jin Zhongyi straightened his chest and made himself look as confident and mature as possible, "I don't know if An Pinghou wants to be yin or yang, are there any specific requirements?"
” "Yang carving."
Li Fengman said: "There are not many requirements, just you carve them out on the same panel, the smaller and neater the font, the better." ” Jin Shifan raised his eyebrows, and the engraving was relatively more labor-intensive, and the font was required to be small and neat, which tested the skills of the craftsman.
However, he has confidence in his grandson, after all, he taught it by hand, and it is just a few dozen words that are carved into him, which is not difficult for him.
Sure enough, after hearing Li Fengman's request, Jin Zhongyi opened the toolbox he was carrying diagonally without saying a word, and picked out the tools he needed in it.
The two knives, one with a round handle and one with a flat angle, the tip of each knife is sharpened, and the cold light at the tip can be seen from afar.
A palm-sized piece of ordinary willow wood, which is the material that Jin Zhongyi usually uses, is now also taken out by him.
Turning his head to look at Jin Shifan, and seeing the old man nodding, Jin Zhongyi lowered his head, and carved the frame on the willow wood little by little.
