Chapter 125
On Friday night, Chi Xueli came to No. 4 Middle School to pick Zhou Zhi out of school.
Both of them were nervous and uneasy. Chi Xueli kept complaining: "You are trying to make trouble for me!"
Zhou Zhi was also panicked, and the literary club said: Danfengqing's pretentious style has long since disappeared without a trace. She is holding a yellow oil-paper square bag in her hand and can't help but rub it: "Sister Chi, please stop talking. I'm more nervous than you."
Chi Xueli drove a small jeep and said bitterly: "You deserve it! You know now? Do you know how much courage it took me to call his old man?!"
"Sister, please don't I told you, how about I get off the car and you give me your stuff? Go west?”
“You dare!”
“Then drive quickly!”
The two of them bickered and drove along. Soon we arrived at the gate of a university campus.
When the guard saw that it was a TV station's car, he was polite. When he saw that it was Chi Xueli who was driving, he immediately let him go.
The little Jeep drove to an old tube building on campus and stopped. The two of them went up to the third floor one after another and knocked on the wooden door.
The door opened, and a thin old man wearing a blue shirt opened the door: "Xue Li is here."
In Zhou Zhi's heart, this small teachers' dormitory is simply a tower. Temple.
The old man in front of me is a famous contemporary linguist, lexicographer, executive deputy editor-in-chief and deputy director of the editorial office of the "Chinese Dictionary". He is also an expert on rhymes with a family background.
Gu Zhenduo.
Chi Xueli is now a well-known host of a well-known column in the country because of the series of interviews in "Aspirational Youth". He is also cautious in front of this old man: "Master, the mentor is not here? Has the old man taken a rest?"< br>
Zhou Zhi's appearance is even more unbearable. Last year, Yang He saw Chi Xueli on the provincial TV station, and that's what he looks like now. He didn't even dare to say hello.
"Your master is very busy now." Gu Zhenduo was approachable and said with a smile: "My father hasn't gone to bed yet. I received a call from you and said that he wanted to bring a child to visit. He hasn't gone to bed yet. . Is this the kid? He looks energetic."
"Gu... Gu..." Zhou Zhi was already stuttering.
"Jiang Wan is worried, and he hears partridges in the mountains?" The old man chuckled: "Kids, don't be so nervous! Come in quickly, come in quickly."
"Hello, Professor Gu." Only then did Zhou Zhi say something concise.
The interior furnishings are very simple, just a fabric sofa and a small coffee table, and a small dining table next to it. Except for a kitchen, the rest is a study room, including a writing desk and bookcases in the bedroom, on both sides. Leave the lights on.
An even older man walked out of the study and rubbed the head of his right index finger with his left hand: "Xue Li is here? Is this the child you were talking about?"
Chi Xue Li and Zhou Zhi immediately stood up: "Old man." "Gu Zuzu."
This is a family that is so arrogant that Zhou Zhi looks up to it. The first generation is Gu Shaoxian, a famous Chinese authority in the fields of academic research on medieval phonology, writing, and exegesis.
Gu Shaoxian was born in the 10th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty. When he was young, he studied under Zhu Yanhe, a famous Confucian in Chengdu. Later, because he opposed Yuan Shikai's proclaimed emperor, he was arrested and imprisoned. In prison, he studied Duan Yucai's annotations in "Shuowen". In terms of academic thought, Dai Zhen, Duan Yucai, Wang Niansun and his son inherited the Qianjia School of Qing Dynasty. Among modern scholars, they had contacts with Zhang Taiyan and Huang Kan, and their academic views were relatively similar.
Writing numerous works throughout his life, descendants are still sorting out his two major works, "Guangyun Shuzheng" and "Notes on the Collection of Classical Interpretations".
The second generation is his son-in-law Shang Menglun and his son Gu Youwen. Shang Menglun has passed away. The old man in front of him is Mr. Shaoxian's son Gu Youwen.
Gu Youwen is a great figure in the literature and history of China's Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. Because of his family background, he is also an expert in writing and rhyme.
The old man Gu Zhenduo who just opened the door is not only an expert in writing, but also a famous historian in the Tang and Song Dynasties. He is the main organizer of his grandfather's two tomes, "Guangyun Shuzheng" and "Collection of Classical Interpretations and Notes".
This man also has a son named Gu Kailai, who is also a professor in the Chinese Department, an expert in rhyme, and Chi Xueli’s mentor.
Among the hundreds of cultural families later assessed by China, there were three in Shuchuan Province, including Yuzhou City. This was the only one in Shu City, with four generations of professors specializing in one genre of rhyme. The rest Historical literature and the like can only be counted as "overflow".
But even those that overflow have pushed them to the top position in China.
Because Sister Chi is such a big star, she has to be careful in front of Gu Zhenduo and call her master obediently.
Everyone sat down, and Gu Youwen went straight to the topic: "I heard from Xue Li that you wrote a paper on Jiachuan dialect? Is it related to medieval phonology?"
Zhou Zhi untied the thread outside the yellow paper bag: "Yes, I did a field investigation on the Jiachuan dialect, which I think is relatively detailed. In addition, there is a comparative discussion on the dialect and the rules of "Guangyun". I would like to trouble Shigong He Shizuzu, please take the time to correct me."
"Guangyun"?" Gu Youwen smiled, but there was a hint of helplessness in his smile: "Where did you learn "Guangyun"?" >
Like Zhou Zhi now, a person who doesn’t know the heights of heaven and earth, Gu Youwen has seen too much in these years, and he doesn’t really understand "Guangyun" in front of the child in his heart.
"I based the lecture notes of Master Shi Gaozu's "Collected Comments on Shuo Wen" and referred to Zhang Taiyan's "Answers to Primary Schools" and "Wen Shi" to explain the exegesis in a voice." Zhou Zhi replied seriously: " Later, it was Chen Li's "Qie Yun Kao", no However, the only ones that were published after Shi Gaozu's school made the decision are Shi Gaozu's "Ancient and Modern Qieyu Table" and "Guangyun Harmony Table", which are based on Shi Gaozu's suggestion of Huang Kan's forty-one tone, and the two The edition with one hundred and ninety-five rhymes.”
"Oh?" Zhou Zhi's answer made Gu Youwen feel happy. Not many people could name the names of these books. The child in front of him might be really different from those before.
"Father." Gu Zhenduo, who was reading the "Jiachuan Dialect Field Research Report," said: "This child's field research is different from ours." "Really? How is it different?"
< br>
Gu Zhenduo said Said: "Unlike our survey of sound types, this child also added exegesis and grammar."
"Really?" Gu Youwen took the report and took a look: "Come on, kid, use your Dialects, read this passage to us.”
"Oh." Zhou Zhi came to Gu Youwen's side: "'Mu', the dialect is pronounced as 'Hu Du', and the characters are all pronounced in a tone. The explanation is almost the same as 'Mu, the sound is suddenly sudden' in "Jin Hu Zi Kao"."< br>
"Also known as 'Falcon Tu', the earliest In Meng Jiao's "Border Town Yin" of the Tang Dynasty, "Where are the falcons who are dreaming about me?"; in Ming Dynasty Sun Chengzong's "Reply to Yuan Jiehuan's Kaifu" there is also a saying that "the temple used the falcons to solve the problem, it is really a sigh."
< br>"'Hu', "Guangyun" as "Hu Gu" "Qie", fifteen volumes; "Du", "Tang Yun" is written as Tu Guqie, and "Zhengyun" is written as Du Guqie. The dialect is based on "Zhengyun", so the dialect of this word should be considered as a word written before the Tang Dynasty. The Voice of the Song Dynasty”
Gu Zhenduo also pointed out: "This is a test article for the three characters stew, dun and dun."
"stew is a simple word with two simple characters, its origin is stew, and the dialect is pronounced as 'Du', both of which are poisonous and cut into the tone. For example, 'Du tofu' ', 'Duyu', agreed with Stew ”
"Dun is a verb, also pronounced as 'Du', both are poisonous and enter the sound. To make an object suddenly stop is said to be 'Du', for example, 'turn the sacks into one,' which agrees with Dun."
"Dun, also pronounced as 'Du', is both poisonous and cut into the tone. Dunhou means thick and heavy. For example, 'Han Dun Dun' is pronounced as 'Ha Du Du' in dialect."
"The three characters have the same pronunciation, but the correct pronunciation is neither Guangyun" nor "Jiyun". Only Maodun Chanyu in "Historical Records" is read as "Modu Chanyu". Therefore, it is suspected that this is not the authentic rhyme of the Tang and Song Dynasties, but a legacy of the Qin and Han Dynasties. Sound."
Reading this paragraph in dialect, Gu Youwen and Gu Zhenduo immediately recognized the rhyme, and both of them couldn't help being surprised and happy.
This method is no longer a simple field investigation, but the content of exegesis.
Today's dialect field surveys generally use Western survey methods. However, because there are too many medieval samples in the Jiachuan dialect, traditional Chinese hermeneutic methods are used to conduct the survey, which has obvious advantages.
And this in itself is also a process of proof. For example, this child mentioned that the word "Zhufan" in the dialect is a derogatory term for eating, and thought that this word should be "Zhu", which means "pound". And I found an ancient example as evidence - "Three Kingdoms·Wei Shu·Shao Di Ji": "The thief used a knife to cover his mouth, so that he could not speak."
Gu Zhenduo patted the "Field Investigation Report": " these are you Summarized? How many dialect words did you use? "
"Grandpa Shi, I used words that have roots in medieval rhymes. There are roughly 658 styles in the report. It's like the word 'confused'."
"The work is very meticulous, which is worthy of praise." Gu Youwen said with a smile: "Little baby, this is a natural advantage for you... ”
Gu Zhenduo seemed to remember something: "Zhou Zhi, right? How many of the reports in this report were personally interviewed by you?"
"Grandpa Shi, these were all interviewed by me personally."
< br>"Oh? Didn't you get any advice from others on this report?"
"After I finished writing the paper, I showed it to my godfather."
"Your godfather , surnamed Wu, right?”
"Yes, my godfather is Wu Lingjun, and my godmother is Tang Dihua." Zhou Zhi took out a letter from his pocket: "This is a letter written by my godfather and godmother to you. They asked me to call you Grandmaster and Grandmaster. "
"You kid!" Gu Zhenduo grabbed the letter: "Why? Why didn't you take it out earlier?"
Zhou Zhi was a little surprised: "My godfather said, if the master didn't mention him, there was no need to take it out..."
"Zhengping is really good. Such a temper." Gu Zhenduo only said this, and then started to read the letter.
Gu Youwen waved to Zhou Zhi: "Come on, children, come to me and read us a few more articles. Xue Li, go and see if there is anything to drink and fruit at home, and prepare some for us." ”
"Hey." Chi Xueli stood up, glared at Zhou Zhi who looked at her helplessly, and went to work in the kitchen.
The six hundred and fifty-eight words and the annotations below actually don’t take long. The main reason is that Zhou Zhi’s dialect pronunciation is very special, and Gu Youwen can understand it as soon as he hears it. There is no difference between the two. Communication and explanation are required, and pure reading is enough.
However, Zhou Zhi still only read half of it: "I heard from my godfather that Grandmaster Shi Gaozu has to go to bed at eight o'clock every night. Don't you delay Grandmaster and Grandmaster Zuzu?"
"The rules are also It’s not about death, it mainly depends on whether it’s worth it.” Gu Youwenqi. There is also some humor in the truth: "Looking at it now, it's quite worthwhile."
"Due to limited conditions at the time, I couldn't conduct detailed research." Gu Zhenduo had already read the letter and listened for a long time: " Are you okay with Zheng Ping and Yidu? ”
"Zhengping is the name of godfather, but Yi is the name of godmother? Did the master give it to them?" Zhou Zhi asked: "The letter they gave you didn't mention their current situation?"
Gu Zhenduo He got into the mood of competition and said with a smile: "First of all, Let’s talk about the origins of their characters.”
“The Book of Songs: Tangdi’s Flowers” has “Yi Er Shi Jia”; “Chu Ci·Li Sao” has “Yu Yue Zhengze Xi” and Yu Yue. Lingjun', Wang Yi's "Chu Ci Zhangju" has a note: "Zheng, Ping means law; spirit means spirit; balance means harmony. The words godmother and godfather should come from these places, right?"
Gu Zhenduo said with a smile: "It's in your godfather's letter. Say you have loved classical literature since childhood and have made some achievements The greatest achievement so far is "Field Report" and "Dialect Research". "Now I believe what he said. As for the other things, he didn't mention a word in the letter." ”
