5. Chapter 5

The little brother was born prematurely, and he was not born with great health. Thin and weak, his hands clenched into fists, his eyes closed. Tingfang knows that the incidence of cerebral palsy in premature babies is slightly higher, and the inability to open the hand is just one of the signs of cerebral palsy. It wasn't until after the third wash that the little brother's hand opened slightly, and Ting Fang was relieved. It's easy to get a brother, if there is something, the Chen family will not be able to stand it, it is better not to have it from the beginning. Now that it looks better, Ting Fang couldn't help but say Amitabha. Chen's eyes also eased up, and the brothers and sisters in the big house resumed their old routines the next day.

The rules of large families are that they have morning and dusk to set the province, but the Ye Mansion is busy from top to bottom when going to court and going to school in the early morning. Only the daughters-in-law were still serving the old lady's breakfast, and the rest went about their business. Tingfang woke up at the end of the day, opened the two-story tent of the stepping bed, and dressed and washed under the service of the girl. She was only nine years old, but she just wore a bun and a few gauze flowers. Narcissus had already prepared her homework book, and Lily found a cloak to put on for her: "Yesterday it was sunny for a long time, and it snowed again this morning, so the girl should wear more." ”

Narcissus asked, "How did you find this?" It's still the first month, and it's only when you wear red that it's festive. ”

Ting Fang looked at the cloak, and the pattern was quite fresh. From bottom to top, there is a gradient from purple blue to gray blue, and the top is embroidered with silver thread with strips of leaf patterns, and he asks with a smile, "When did you do it?" How did I not know? ”

Lily said: "The girl forgot? It was my wife's. The raw edges are not very good, and there is another one hanging underneath. The wife said that it was a pity to lose the rare fox skin, so she cut a piece for the girl to wear. The red one with a gold thread loosened its head and lost a piece of color, and it had to be cleaned up before it could be worn. ”

"I mean, I didn't have this when I was tailoring clothes a few years ago." Ting Fang tied the bow by herself and said with satisfaction, "It's all red and green, and it's not bad to have a few plain ones." ”

Narcissus smiled: "The girl said strange things again, your age is the time to wear red and green." Which bracelet to bring? ”

"The black one."

Narcissus frowned and said, "Isn't it okay? ”

"What's wrong?" Ting Fang used to go online and saw a picture of a jade bracelet. Like a twisted flower, three strands are twisted into a strand, which is very smart. Now she is still young, and the family did not prepare a jade bracelet, so she drew a pattern and asked Uncle Wei Qiang to carve it out of wood and black lacquer, which is very simple and generous. It goes well with today's clothes.

Narcissus couldn't resist Tingfang, so she had to find it and bring it for her. Ting Fang looked at the bracelet on his wrist and sighed that his cheap uncle was so skillful, but it was a pity that his life was not good, otherwise it would be okay to be well-off if he didn't talk about getting rich. I don't know if his house has collapsed due to heavy snowfall for many days. It's better to ask someone to ask if you're free.

packed up, and the three masters and servants went out. The school is on the east side of the big house, a wall away. It's just that there is an old man's outer study, and he is afraid that outsiders will not know the way and collide with his inner family, so the door is sealed. The sisters had to go to school from the small door in front of the ear room of the Chen landlord, which was still much closer than the second and third rooms. After only a few steps, Ting Yao also came out. The two sisters met in front of the main room, waiting for the courtyard and talking at the same time. I only heard Ting Yao say: "Yesterday, the old lady sent someone to tell me that I would finish school and go to her after lunch." In the second half of the night, you watch more in the mother's house, and tell her to eat and sleep well. Also looking at the. Don't be lazy, it's time for the little brother to worry. ”

Ting Fang hurriedly asked, "But is there something?" ”

Ting Yao's girl, Jasmine, pursed her lips and smiled: "Fourth girl, do you count our girl as more than ten this year?" Of course, the book is important, but what is more important is the director of the house. Now the wife is not idle, but the old lady must teach first. ”

Ting Fang smiled and grimaced at Ting Yao. Fifteen and Huh, to talk about people.

Ting Yao snorted and turned her head away from her. Ting Fangle giggled. It happened that Tinglan came out and saluted each other, so they took the conversation and led Tingwu, and the four sisters went around to the school along the verandah.

The stove was raised in the school early, and a faint fragrance permeated the room, thinking that the girl who lit the fire put fragrant cakes in it. The Tingshu brothers didn't have as much trouble getting dressed as the sisters, and they arrived earlier. Ting Shan in the second room, and Ting Xiu Ting Miao in the third room have not yet arrived because the road is farther. When Ting Yao saw Ting Shu, she asked, "The molecule we got together the day before yesterday can be sent out?" ”

Tingshu shook his head: "It's still the first month, and there are many pharmacies that haven't opened. After walking around, there are also those who have opened, but they are not familiar with it and dare not ask people indiscriminately; The shopkeeper of the cooked shop is not there, and the guy does not dare to accept it. I just sent the little guy to ask again, and I ran again after I got off school. ”

Ting Fang said: "Even if it is a good deed, it is not in a hurry. If we encounter black-hearted people, we don't count if we lose money in vain, but help them to abuse and play a role for the tiger, which is even worse. ”

Ting Yao nodded: "That's exactly what you said." Hengzhi Chen looked fine, and she was not in a hurry.

Ting Pei, the eldest son in the second room, heard what the young master in the family heard and asked, "What did you guys say?" ”

Ting Shu had to say this and this once, and Ting Pei said: "Pray for the eldest aunt, why don't you call us?" It's too raw. Wait until I tell the servant to take the money and send it to your house. ”

Tingyu Tingli and others also said that they wanted to be together, and when the sisters arrived, they were even more gossipy. Ting Yao couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to respond. For a while, half of the girl who was scattered went to get money and send money. The gentleman also arrived.

Mr. Ye's surname is Kang, and he was a jinshi when Ye University was the chief examiner. It was originally a royal history, and he was upright by nature. That year, King Ping forcibly occupied Mintian and killed people, and asked him to chase after him for several months, and forced King Ping to become King Pingjun, and offended King Ping to death. Partial to his son is not angry, and he communicates with others. The traitor was caught, and since someone accused him of arsonizing with his son, the quarrel was unbearable, and he wanted to save his son's life, so he had to resign and go into hiding. Ye Ge Lao saw that his family was surrounded by four walls, so he simply invited him to teach at home, and he was a master and apprentice.

Whether the temperament is good or not, there is no need to say the knowledge of the dignified jinshi. The Ye family did not disrespect him, and after a long time, he was more comfortable than being an official, so he simply took his wife and lived in the yard that Ye Fu Tete cleaned up and took root. In addition to teaching students during the day, he also wrote poems and wrote illustrated food booklets from time to time, which made him even more famous than in the past.

Every time she thinks of this section, Ting Fang can't help but sigh: Ye Mansion is really moat, really! Ask a top Chinese professor to enlighten your own children, for the sake of family inheritance, what else can't the old man do? Because of this, more than a dozen children in the family, when they may be naughty and willful in front of their parents, dare not make a mistake in the school. Seeing that Mr. was coming, they all lined up neatly according to their age to salute, and after Mr. Kang sat down, they dared to sit down slowly.

The sisters in the big room took a few days off, so Mr. Kang passed them first, checked the homework in the second and third rooms, and explained a few more words before turning around and coming back to see them. Although the brothers and sisters all go to school together, the girls' requirements are not the same as those of the young master. Mr. Kang looked at Ting Shu's homework book, and after carefully commenting on it, he started to read it from Ting Yao. When he saw Ting Fang's words, he nodded with a smile. If you want to talk about the seven girls in Yefu, who can make Mr. Kang fall in love, it is Tingfang. Limited by the times, even if Ting Yao is a person who doesn't worry about people, it is impossible to kill like Ting Fang. No matter how talented a woman's family is, it depends on whether her belly is competitive or not. Chen's father was an official and a political envoy, and she only had a daughter, so she didn't teach anything about playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting? also carefully selected her husband, who expected that she would not be able to give birth, even her mother's family was silent. Look at the second wife, Yue's family, although her father is the supervisor of the country, he does not make his daughter read very much, and if she is illiterate, she will not be able to read, but her talent will be exempted. married into the family, gave birth to four children in five years, and couldn't splash her husband's water, and even her in-laws looked up to her, who didn't say that she was blessed? Therefore, whether a woman is doing well or not, depending on the father and the husband and the son, there is no need to study the knowledge in depth, and it is the right way to learn kung fu and learn to do things.

The centuries-old divide is not so easy to bridge, and even in the 21st century, there are still many women who hold this view. Ting Fang never persuaded the sisters, but only secretly ruthless. The student is attentive, even if it is a female student, the teacher will inevitably favor three points. actually asked Tingfang and Tingshu together, and it was not possible to write a word crookedly. Ting Fang is really competitive, a stack of paper is neatly written, and it is pleasing to the eyes of those who read it, which is very rare at the age of nine. Looking at the couplet again, there are even more occasional ingenuity. praised it once, and sighed again, but it's a pity that it's not a brother.

Mr. Kang's satisfaction was almost not written on his face, and Ting Shan's eyes were hot. She is the only girl in the second room, and no one asks her to learn well, nor does anyone restrain her from saying that "a woman is virtuous if she is not talented". She was two years older than Ting Fang, but her homework was 108,000 miles behind. Fortunately, the pampered girl is not very jealous, and Tingfang intends to make friends, so the two sisters often joke together. Seeing that Tingfang had a face, she was so much happier for her. I also took pity on her concubine, and often took care of one or two.

After taking a class, it was time to take a break and eat snacks. The sisters made a bunch of people according to their age and temperament, and chattered and talked. Ting Shan picked up Ting Fang's words and said, "Your method is really good, and the writing is so beautiful." I also wanted to learn, but I couldn't keep going. ”

Ting Miao, the sixth girl in the third room, interjected: "What method? I'll hear it. ”

Ting Fang had no choice but to say: "I heard people say, stick the paper on the wall, hold the pen perpendicular to the paper to practice calligraphy, and write it out with muscles and bones." I tried to practice for a few days, and I thought it was a little interesting, so I practiced every day. ”

Ting Miao's eyes lit up: "Really? ”

Ting Shan shook her head: "It's really true, but it's very tiring." I wrote a cup of tea, and I couldn't lift my hand. She has been practicing for a few years, and it hurts her to beat others more than others. ”

Ting Fang couldn't cry or laugh: "I've even beaten someone......"

Ting Shu also said: "Tired is tired, but you can read and learn words, why are you tired?" ”

Ting Pei said with a bitter face: "Fourth sister, you can make me miserable, the third sister can't practice a cup of tea when she goes home, so my father will see it." I heard that you are like this every day, and I am forced to practice too, but I have spared the three girls! What are you going to pay me? ”

Ting Ji and Ting Li also nodded, looking bitter and hateful!

Ting Fang smiled and said, "Shame face, you are not as good as my girl's family." Now that I am cheating you, when the title of the gold list is tomorrow, what will you use to thank me? ”

"Thank you, okay?" Ting Ji and Ting Fang are the same year, and they speak very casually.

Ting Fang said generously: "It's not better than a few of you, I don't want it anymore." ”

Everyone was happy when he said a word, and Ting Shu couldn't help but rub Ting Fang's head: "You have a clever mouth!" ”

"If you crumple my flowers again, you will be compensated!"

Tingshu rolled his eyes: "Stingy! ”

"Just be stingy."

Ting Wu said: "Just buy a few for each of our sisters." ”

The sisters clapped their hands in unison and said yes.

Ting Fang laughed: "I really have to thank you for this!" ”

Ting Shu curled his finger and tapped on Ting Fang's head: "Thank you for a mallet!" Everyone laughed when they saw Ting Fang's face wrinkled.

Ting Miao looked at Ting Fang, who was joking with the brothers, and was envious, bowing her head and pulling her clothes, they were all concubines, why was she so good? Only Tinglan hummed, if you see someone with the word "Yan", you will have three points first! Let's see what future you can really hold in the future! We'll see!
