Xu Wenyu had just finished breakfast, and a sweet voice came from outside the door: "Is the old lady there?"

Yulu replied inside the door, "Mrs. Wu is here, please come in, the old lady has just finished breakfast." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" set the curtain for her.

Wu Niangzi moved lightly, walked into the door, and said with a smile: "Old Madam Xu, the old lady invites you and Wanzhen and Wenyu to the study room of 'Songtao Courtyard'. "As a person close to Mrs. Tu, although she is young, Mrs. Xu is a junior in front of her. But after all, her identity is delicate, so she still calls "old lady", but does not give each other courtesy.

Xu Wanzhen saluted her and said, "I've seen Mrs. Wu." Seeing her sister saluting, Xu Wenyu also did the same, and she was cute.

Following Wu Niangzi, the three of them went out of the "Qingzhu Garden", passed through the back garden, and arrived at the "Songtao Courtyard" along the hand-copying verandah. Old lady Tu was writing in the study, waiting for them.

Seeing Mrs. Xu bring Xu Wanzhen and Xu Wenyu in, Mrs. Tu happily put down the brush in her hand and said, "Come, Qionghua, you can sit at will." I mainly want to meet my two great-grandchildren. A disgusted tone.

Wu Niangzi pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this, and said, "The old lady will sit down for a while, and I'll pour tea." ”

Yesterday was in a hurry, and Xu Wan really didn't have time to look at Old Lady Tu carefully. When I saw it today, Fang felt that this old man was not simple. The old man is tall and not a common image of a weak Confucian nowadays, and although he is old now, it can still be seen that he was a majestic figure when he was young. Xu was seriously ill twice before, and his figure was still tall but only a skeleton remained, with a thin face and a long beard under his chin. With silver hair like snow, he pulled a bun on his head and simply inserted a peach wood hairpin to fix it. Wearing a brown wide-sleeved robe, the indifferent atmosphere of idle clouds and wild cranes is revealed from his bones, and he is as heroic and free as a famous man of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

At this time, Old Lady Tu's face was full of kind smiles, and he beckoned: "Zhen'er, Yu'er, come and see what I wrote." ”

Xu Wanzhen walked over and saw that on his bookcase, a couplet was laid out, with the book "Bamboo is not subject to heat, and green pines are not changed in autumn". The handwriting is uninhibited, majestic and vigorous, the ink is not dry, and a scent of ink lingers in the air.

Mrs. Tu put down the pen and said, "Zhen'er, I heard that you are not good at calligraphy, so you turned to study the way of painting and calligraphy appreciation." Tell me about this couplet. ”

Xu Wanzhen pondered for a long time, and said loudly: "The point is like a falling stone, the painting is like a summer cloud, the hook is like Qu Jin, and the vertical and horizontal looks are like images, low and high." The momentum is majestic and uninhibited. There is the wind and bones of Wei Bei, and there is the heroism of wild grass. It's a good word!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Tu stroked her palms and smiled, and said, "It's a good story!

Wu Niangzi nodded with a smile and praised: "The old lady's handwriting is good, and Wanzhen is naturally knowledgeable." ”

Receiving the affirmation of Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Tu smiled, the wrinkles on her face seemed to be a smile, and said: "When the ink is dry, this couplet will be given to Zhen'er!"

The preciousness of Mrs. Tu's handwriting, Xu Wan really knows it, although she has just moved into the Tu family on the second day, but the elders give it and cannot be resigned, not to mention that she really loves this character. Whether it is the state of mind revealed between the lines, or the skills of calligraphy, it is worth her repeated observation and learning. At the moment, I didn't care that some people in the Tu family would blush, and said with a smile: "Zhen'er thanked my great-grandfather for giving me words." ”

Mrs. Wu served tea to Mrs. Xu, and the two sat on the side chatting, laughing at the old and the young.

After Xu Wanzhen's test, Mrs. Tu asked Xu Wenyu again: "Yu'er, listen to your grandmother, have you finished practicing the thousand-character essay and memorizing the sound rhythm for enlightenment?"

When Xu Wenyu saw his great-grandfather asking, he proudly puffed up his little chest and replied crisply and loudly: "Back to my great-grandfather's words, yes! He followed Mrs. Xu, and since he told him about his great-grandfather's demeanor once, he often pestered Mrs. Xu and told him stories about his great-grandfather. In his heart, his great-grandfather is the idol that Sister said about him, and when an idol asks about his homework, of course, he must answer with a spirit of 120,000 points.

Everyone was amused by his attitude, and Xu Wanzhen praised: "Yu'er is extremely serious in her homework. When I was in Suzhou, I learned 100 big characters every day. ”

Seeing such a serious and studious descendant, there must be no old man who is unhappy. Old lady Tu was so happy that she twisted her beard and said, "It turns out that Yu'er is so powerful, I'll take the test seriously." Recite a vocal rhythm for enlightenment?"

"Clouds to rain, snow to wind, evening to clear sky. Laihong is against the swallow, and the bird is against the songworm. Three-foot sword, six-jun bow, Lingbei to Jiangdong ......" The study room sounded the crisp endorsement of children.

"Well, that's good, let's have another three-character scripture, fragrant Jiuling, up. ”

"Xiang Jiuling, can warm the seat. Filial piety to relatives, what should be done. Rong is four years old and can make pears. Brother Yu Chang, should be a prophet. The first filial piety, the second sight and hear. Know a certain number, know a certain ......" Xu Wenyu put his little hands behind his back, shook his head and carried it. The three characters were memorized by him very well, and the old lady Tu got up, and he continued to recite it down, without the slightest intention of stopping.

Old lady Tu asked him to stop and said, "It's okay, Yu'er is really good." ”

Xu Wenyu tilted his head, his eyes were shining, like washed black grapes, he looked at Old Lady Tu and asked, "Is Great-Grandfather satisfied with Yu'er?"

"Satisfied!"

"Then can Yu'er learn from her great-grandfather?"

"Yes!"

"Oh yes! Great! I can learn from my great-grandfather!" Xu Wenyu happily walked around the room, remembering what Sister A said, "If you love someone, you must express your love." He ran to Mrs. Tu and said, "Great-grandfather, you bend over." ”

Old lady Tu didn't know what he wanted to do, so he bent down at him, Xu Wenyu's soft little hands hugged his neck, and kissed him a few times with a small mouth.

Although Mrs. Tu also has great-grandchildren, it is the first time she has encountered such enthusiasm as Xu Wenyu. With his prestige in Songxi Academy, whether it is the young children in the children's initiation class, or Tu Ruiming and Tu Ruizhang, they are all rules and regulations in front of him, and they dare not exceed the rules. When Xu Wenyu's soft little hands hugged him and kissed him, an old heart couldn't help but melt away from his innocent enthusiasm.

The old man had a smile on his face, and picked Xu Wenyu up, the smiles of the old and the young were so pure: "Yu'er is so good, go! Great-grandfather will take you to the garden!" Xu Wenyu nodded in his arms.

Looking at these two people, he actually left everyone behind and walked straight away. Old Madam Xu, Xu Wanzhen, and Wu Niangzi couldn't help but be a little stunned, and they were silent for a moment, and they all laughed out loud.

Wu Niangzi said: "It's been a long time since I've seen the old lady so happy." Yu'er is really cute. ”

Old Madam Xu waved her hand and said, "No matter which one is old or the younger, let's talk about our own." How is your family, is it easy to meet?"

Wu Niangzi did not shy away from it, and replied generously: "Don't worry, the old lady, it's all good." I can see the second elder once in about a month, and my father is also an official of the imperial court, and he was promoted to the main book two years ago, and the Liu family did not dare to be blatantly embarrassed.
