Lingyu would sit in the shade of the trees in the yard and draw pictures of embroidery frames and other flowers and plants after breakfast, and Lingyu would set up a deck chair and a small coffee table in the yard, make a pot of good tea, and put a few plates of candied snacks for her to use.
The sun shines on the body in early spring, warm, not very hot, the air in the early morning is fresh and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the trees are gradually greening, sitting in the shade of the easel to paint a few strokes, drinking a cup of tea, the days are leisurely and satisfying.
In such a relaxed mood, the works painted have improved a little, which is very beautiful.
Sometimes I get up early to practice calligraphy, occasionally embroider a few strokes, and use it to paint in the afternoon, and it doesn't necessarily depend on my mood, sometimes I don't paint or embroider when I'm tired, so I tinker with flowers and plants to make some aromatherapy cakes for home use or give away, and sell them if it's excessive.
Occasionally, in the afternoon, when the sun is abundant, I will sit in the yard and sew some seasonal clothes and shoes for my family, and change the pattern to do something for them.
It's going to be the end of the month in a blink of an eye, Qingyuan came back from the exam, and his physical and mental condition is still okay, so he specially called and asked, "How do you feel, what do you experience, is the first exam nervous?
"Auntie, I feel that the test is still okay, it's not too bad, I basically can, the questions are not very difficult, and the spot check is also very strict. One person went into a small cubicle for the exam, the toilet was just behind the last cubicle, there was a small stove to boil water and cook by ourselves, but we didn't have a long time, and we also used to cook alone, and the day was over. I feel okay, but if it's a Xiucai exam, it will take a few days, and the test of the body is quite large, fortunately, you insist on letting me exercise, it's really necessary, I saw a student faint before finishing the exam, it's a pity. "Qingyuan's first time to take the test for children, this experience is also very valuable to him.
After this exam, it made Qingyuan a little more cheerful, with more hope and motivation for the future, more things in his eyes, and a lot more brighter, no longer as depressed and unhappy as before.
"This experience is still very important, it is good for you to experience more things, it doesn't matter if you do well in the exam, don't care too much, even if you fail, it is inevitable, don't take it to heart. Qiaolan encouraged Qingyuan to get a preventive shot in advance, so that the child would not be disappointed because he was not admitted and lost his interest in reading.
"I know, auntie, I understand, after all, there are still a few people who pass the exam once, and the name of genius is not a good thing, I know. ”
"It's good if you understand, the name of genius is loud, but it is easy to be excluded, and everyone's requirements for genius are very high, you can't meet everyone's expectations It's easy to disappoint, it's not good for you in the future, no one can fail once without losing once, so it's better not to be a genius, it's better to be a man or be cautious, low-key life, it's too different from everyone, and it's also very eye-catching and unsociable. Qiao Lan told him all about her experience, and it was up to him how much he could comprehend.
"Well, I know, our master told me, let me not be proud and not discouraged, I should be a man who is not arrogant or discouraged, and only those who have strength in their hearts are strong, and I will work hard, auntie. "Qingyuan has more things in his eyes, in order to be strong and resolute, maybe he is not good enough, but he works hard enough and is willing to change and work in the right direction, which is commendable.
"Okay, stay for dinner at noon, and my aunt will make you something to eat. Qiao Lan looked very happy.
"Okay, I want to eat meatballs, I want to eat them for the exam, I really want to stay for a few days, I think it's enough to choke, I plan to increase the amount of exercise every morning in the future, run a few more laps, so that the body is still not good." "Qingyuan is very smart and has realized that he must be physically strong to rely on the imperial examination, and he doesn't want to leave regrets.
"Well, yes, didn't your second uncle teach you the five bird plays, and it will be very good for the body to play a few times every morning in the future, so you should pay attention to protecting your eyes, and go out for a walk after learning for a while, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable to see clearly." Qiao Lan reminded him to pay attention to eye protection, there were no myopia glasses for him to wear here.
"Well, I know, I'm tired of studying now, so I go out for two laps, and I combine work and rest. ”
"Well, when you are free, I will ask your uncle to teach you to ride a horse and archery, this is a lesson that you must learn in the six arts of a gentleman, but in terms of musical instruments, my own guqin playing is not brilliant, and it is not easy to find a master." Qiao Lan muttered while cooking the dishes.
Qiaolan has learned the guqin, when she was young, the master discovered her potential, and was determined to train her into a generation of embroidery masters to inherit the mantle, so she gave up her old face and took her to visit the top masters in various industries to learn, calligraphy and painting, appreciate antiques to learn knowledge, and guqin and even dance, his master insisted that it was good to learn more things, and dancing could also cultivate children's temperament.
However, in terms of guqin, she has good skills but no talent, and she has never been praised by the master, and the most she says is mediocre, so she has little confidence to teach others.
"You don't necessarily have to learn the guqin, a piano is very expensive, and it costs too much to replace the piano as you grow older. Can't you learn Dizi or Xiao?" "Qingyuan is a farmer, he is more pragmatic, and he also wants to learn the six arts of the gentleman, but he will not spend money for this.
"Well, I'm thinking about it, don't worry, it's not a big deal, it's just a piano, don't care, the main thing is that the master has to find a good one." You should follow me to learn painting first, it is very important to pick it up, calligraphy and painting are not separated, practicing calligraphy is a daily homework, do you still have daily practice now?" Qiao Lan asked as she spoke.
"Yes, I practice calligraphy every day, I also help my classmates copy books, and I copy books myself, so I will stay for Qinggang. I'm also drawing, but I'm making it simpler. "Qingyuan told the truth.
"Well, you don't need to be good at everything, find one that you like the most, are most interested in and most comfortable, and practice hard to learn more, for example, my aunt is also hard at drawing, or it is also excellent to write more well. Qiao Lan smiled and said.
"Well, I get it. ”
At noon, I specially made four happy balls for the child, but fortunately, the meat was fresh, the time was still early, and the chicken soup was also ready-made, and the child was very happy to eat.
After eating, I looked at the child's homework and fonts, and it really made great progress, indicating that no one supervised and I was not lazy on weekdays, which was really good, and Qiaolan was very satisfied.
In the afternoon, Qingyuan went back early, and he had to go back to do his homework, the children's exams were over, and he couldn't do nothing, the children were very planned, and he didn't think that there was anything great about the children's students who took the exam once, and soon left them behind and thought about their future studies and homework.
Such a planned and goal-oriented Qingyuan made Qiaolan breathe a sigh of relief, as long as she didn't learn crookedly, if her mind was not so heavy, it would be more perfect if she was more cheerful.
A few days later, Chuanhu came back to report the good news, "Lanzi, Qingyuan has passed, Tongsheng has passed, second place, and the results are very good." ”
"Really, are you sure? Qiao Lan also had a suppressed surprise on her face, and confirmed it again and again.
