Chapter 117 escape from the forbidden room
Yu Ren carefully opened the cloth bag, and the hair was filled with several exquisitely printed booklets. Yu Ren's first reaction at that time was that this kid also hid banned books!
But when I opened it and looked closely, it was not the case at all. There were four books in the cloth bag, namely: "The Art of War", "Sword Classic", "The Secret of Washing the Sea", and "Jingqi Hall Collection".
Yu Ren opened the pages one by one and saw a line of small words written on the home page: Giving to the nephew Xingjian. Yu Ren was surprised. Because Xingjian was his father's name, and the nephew was written on it, which was the person who gave the book, and it should be Yu Dayou. He looked through the cover again.
It turns out that this book was written by Yu Dayou during his lifetime.
Yu Ren went to look through the other three books, and all wrote such small characters, and the authors of the book were Yu Dayou. Looking at the book "Sutra of Wu Jing" in his hand, there was indeed such small characters written on the homepage.
This time, Yu Ren completely understood. These books were written by Yu Dayou and were also given to his father by himself, hoping that his father could inherit his career. Unfortunately, his father valued literature and over military affairs, so he abandoned these books. However, he did not expect that his son was exactly the opposite of him, so all these rare military books were added to Yu Ren.
It seems that Yu Dayou should be his predecessor idol. Yu Ren thought.
Looking at the pile of books on the table, Yu Ren became stunned. He actually didn't like reading books very much. But in this era where there was no mobile phone or computer, reading books was really the best way to entertain. If you choose between reading the Four Books and Five Classics and reading Military Books, Yu Ren would rather choose to read military books. This may also be called the two evils beings to be the least!
Yu Ren thought of this, so he picked up the top book "Yu Liaozi" and was about to read it. Suddenly he heard a cough outside. Yu Ren immediately hid the thirty "forbidden books" on the table under the table, and then picked up Zhu Pi Analects beside him and pretended to look serious.
Yu Ren knew that since his previous life had collected these books so strictly, it was obvious that these books were listed as banned books by his father in their family. If his father found out that he was not preparing for the exam seriously, but was peeking at the "banned books", he would die and be very ugly.
Sure enough, Cao An called the master from outside the door. Yu Ren knew that his father must be worried and came to check the post. Fortunately, Yu Yuanqian did not come in, but just stood outside the window and looked at Yu Ren for a while, then turned around and left.
Yu Ren secretly said it was so dangerous!
For several days, Yu Ren stayed honestly in the study and read his books. Yu Yuanqian gradually felt relieved about his son, so he spent more and more time outside every day.
A few days later, Yu Ren read all the military books hidden in his study, but there was no books to read. He wanted to go out to play, but he was afraid that Song Tuozi would not let him go out. So Yu Ren asked Cao An to discuss.
Cao An just turned his eyes a few times and immediately had an idea.
"It's actually very easy for the young master to go out to play. As long as you pretend to send me out to buy paper and pen, I'll go to the next door to find Hu Zi and the others. Let them set up a ladder in Hu Zi's yard and then find a rope to hang it over. The young master will climb over the rope. Song Tuozi will never find it.
I will still deliver the meal at noon and then collect the bowls. Song Tuozi will definitely not find it. But Master, you must come back before the master comes home. Otherwise, if you are discovered by the master, I will be dead!"
Yu Ren almost jumped up happily.
"Okay, that's it. You'll discuss with Hu Zi and the others right now. The matter is done, I'll thank you each of you for one or two taels of silver."
Cao An didn't care about the rewards, but he knew Yu Ren too much. With his personality, he was really worried that Yu Ren would go crazy before the autumn boudoir.
Shortly after Cao An went out, he came back with a small stack of rice paper.
"How is the matter discussed?" Yu Ren asked in a low voice.
"No problem. Hu Zi and the others just miss you! It's just because the master ordered Song Tuozi to not let them come to our house. So they couldn't come in and play with you."
"That's great. Then, have you asked them when they will take action?" Yu Ren was too anxious. He was imprisoned for more than ten days, and now he finally hoped for the opportunity to go out. He really hated that he could go out immediately.
"Huzi said that when his sister has prepared lunch, she will go to deliver food to his father. They will come to pick up the young master. At that time, they will notify us with a secret code."
After Cao An went out, Yu Ren could no longer sit still. He first closed the window to the east, and then made some disguise on his chair. In this way, looking at the shadows on the window paper from outside, he seemed to be still sitting there reading.
Everything was about to stop, but there was still no movement outside. Yu Ren was very anxious. But he knew that Hu Zi would not lie to him.
His neighbor Hu Zi's full name is Sun Menghu, and he is the son of Mr. Sun whom he worshipped during his enlightenment. This kid went to school with him since he was a child, but he never made any progress. He still hasn't even passed the exam. In fact, Hu Zi doesn't like studying, and he wants to learn from others to do business. He is especially interested in doing business abroad. But first of all, their family is not well off. His father's monthly money for teaching has not much money and no capital. Secondly, his father doesn't want him to do business. The old man always believes that the businessman has a low status and no future.
But Hu Zi was very persistent. Although he had no conditions, he was able to create conditions. A few years ago, when Yu Ren was at home, Hu Zi was entangled with a few playmates who had grown up with him since childhood. After several people raised dozens of taels of silver, Hu Zi slipped out to become a tyrant.
At first, Hu Zi did all kinds of business, sometimes selling umbrellas and sometimes fans. But later, he met a few young men who made boats. From then on, he began to change his career in boats.
Because Yu Ren has been studying hard in the past two years, he has spent much less time with Hu Zi and the others. Although he knows that Hu Zi has changed his career in the past one or two years, he and Cao An have not been to their shipyard yet.
Yu Ren was clearing the matter about Sun Menghu that Cao An learned in his mind, and Cao An's voice came from outside the door. "Young master, Aunt Ma has already prepared the meal. Do you want to send it in now?"
"Send it in!"
Cao An then carried a plate of food into the study.
Putting down the tray, Cao An whispered in Yu Ren's ear, "I saw Hu Zi and the others throwing the rope over. The young master is about to eat. You can leave after you finish eating."
Yu Ren heard that Sun Menghu and the others had arranged a meeting and had no intention of eating. So he pushed the tray. "Don't eat anymore. Please help me solve these foods. I'll go out to eat."
After saying that, Yu Ren jumped over the window and jumped behind the house. Sure enough, he saw a thick hemp rope hanging from the wall beside him. Yu Ren quickly followed the agreed code and learned to make a cat's meow.
After a while, a cat moan came from the opposite side. Yu Ren knew that they were ready. So he pulled the hemp rope with his hands, and it turned out that the hemp rope had been under pressure.
Yu Ren climbed over the wall in just a few seconds
I saw a long ladder leaning against the wall opposite. The three young men were pulling a rope in their hands. One of the three men, who was not tall but very strong, was Sun Menghu. The other two, judging from the appearance that Cao An explained to him in advance, should be their playmates when they were young. One was Tian Jia and the other was Liu Xi. These two men used to be counterattacks with Sun Menghu. Now they are still working on boats with Sun Menghu.
Yu Ren quickly climbed down the long ladder. Three young men caught him. Yu Ren was about to say a few words of thanks, but Hu Zi pointed at him and made a ban on voice. Then he said to him in a low voice, "My mother is spinning in the inner room, let's go out and talk."
So, four young people sneaked out of the alley like thieves.
After leaving the alley, the few people were relieved. In order to thank everyone for their help, Yu Ren specially invited them to the restaurant to grab a meal.
Originally, Yu Ren wanted to go to a better restaurant, but Hu Zi and the other two refused and insisted on going to the shed on the roadside to eat. Because they knew that although Yu Ren's father was an official in the court, their family was not rich. As good brothers, they didn't want Yu Ren to spend more money.
So, the few people had a meal at a small stall on the side of the road. Yu Ren asked for five kilograms of cooked beef and made this beef offal again, and then made two bottles of wine. The few people hadn't seen each other for a long time, and finally had the opportunity to get together, and everyone seemed very happy.
Yu Ren asked about the current situation of the three of them. Hu Zi only said that he was still working on a boat, so he would not talk about the others.
When Yu Ren saw that when he talked about this, the three of them looked a little embarrassed, he knew that their shipbuilding career was not going well.
