Chapter 24: School Fun
The rich family of the Lu Mansion is a good scholar, and the Optical Hall has two of its own.
The outer courtyard is a university hall, and Lu Jing invites famous teachers for the children of the two provinces.
Because there are only six people in the two prefectures and the concubines, the school-age children of the relatives of the side branches are also allowed to go to school to accompany them.
And the women's school specially set up for the ladies of the house is in the inner courtyard of the Lixiang Pavilion.
Lu Lu met the two female gentlemen who were teaching.
The one surnamed Deng has a kind face, a calm bearing, and is also older, and he looks full of poetry and books, and sure enough, this one is really a girl who specializes in teaching girls to read, read and practice.
The surname Zeng is not very old, twenty-eight or nine, with a slender figure, delicate facial features, only indifferent eyes, not approachable enough. She is dedicated to teaching the girls their piano skills and physical manners.
Another old gentleman, Tailong Zhong, occasionally taught chess and tea art.
Gee! Lu Lu slurred.
Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, tea art and behavior are all trained by special personnel, this Lu Mansion is really a big blood on the young ladies? This is racking his brains in order to squeeze into the circle of elites!
Pang didn't really bring Lu Lu over to apprentice in person, but asked his henchman Wang's mother to do it for him.
After offering the teacher's salute and greeting politely, Wang's mother went by herself.
The two female gentlemen arranged for Lu Lu to worship the ancestor first.
Lu Lu looked up: Is it also Confucius?
Sister Lu Mingrong, as well as Lu Mingshu, the concubine on the second master's side, all rushed over to greet Lu Lu.
Lu Mingshu is only twelve years old, but she was born extremely beautiful, with her mother Hu's family, Chu Chu is moving, I see pity, but also well-behaved and sensible, Hefu likes her very much.
In addition to these three students, there are four or five girls from the side branches of the government or relatives.
Lu Lu remembers.
It doesn't matter if it matters else, it's just that Yang Mingzhu, the niece of the Yang family on the second master's side, is the most cunning and has to be especially careful, and she has suffered her secret losses in her previous life.
Let's teach the piano today.
Everyone else put on the piano and lit the incense.
In view of Lu Lu's identity, she was arranged to sit in the front row.
Looking at the antique short piano on the low table, and then looking at his hands, the corners of Lu Lu's mouth twitched.
"Okay, let's review the Pingsha Falling Goose Song that we learned the day before yesterday." Master Zeng smiled and spoke softly.
"Yes." The others obediently responded and began to dance with their fingers.
Lu Lugan glared.
Not to mention the modern Cheng Zhu, even if she carries the memory of Lu Lu, she is not a clever master.
In addition to recognizing a few words, Lu Lu, the predecessor, was a mess of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she could still handle it. Also, growing up in the countryside, how can anyone teach these extravagant things?
"Deer girl, why don't you move?" Zeng Fuzi looked at Lu Lu.
"No, it won't." Lu Lu simply replied.
Zeng Fuzi's eyes flashed, and he apologized: "It was my negligence." ”
As he spoke, he took out a sheet of music from the bookshelf and handed it to her, "Learning the piano starts with fingering. The left and right fingers are different. The right finger is mainly used for wiping, picking, hooking, ticking, beating, picking and a combination of different things such as wheel, pluck, stab, roll, whisk, etc. And the left hand groans, kneades, swans, notes, advances, retreats, bumps, etc. ”
"Oh." Lu Lu looked at the piano score, and the drawing was very detailed, and it was clear at a glance.
"The tones are mainly press and portamento." Master Zeng gestured to you on the strings: "This is kneeling, bringing up, pushing, sounding, pinching." ”
The monosyllabic notes of 'Ding Dong' sounded one by one, and Lu Lu watched it very seriously and attentively.
The other students stopped to listen to Mrs. Tsang's explanation.
"It's portamento. There are groaning, sloppy, squirting, note, bumping, teasing, calling, up and down, advancing and removing, retreating, and separating. ”
It's complicated! Lu Lu wailed in his heart.
"You try. Press the strings with your left hand and pluck the strings with your right hand. ”
Lu Lu did so, his whole body was stiff and did not relax.
"Pluck the two strings with the right hand for harmony, press the strings with the left hand to take the sound, and swing back and forth for chanting, kneading, and gliding for the sound." Master Zeng taught patiently and meticulously by hand.
Lu Lu can't do anything else, his memory is quite good.
While recalling the teacher's movements, I plucked the strings and the astringent monosyllable 'Cheng Cheng' came out.
Not clear enough, not skilled enough.
However, for the beginner Lu Lu, it is already a small step of success.
She raised her eyes happily and asked, "Sir, is that so?" ”
Zeng Fuzi nodded approvingly: "Yes, although the fingering is young, it is correct, just practice a few more times." ”
"Thank you, sir." Lu Lu immersed himself in hard training.
Mainly, she thinks it's fresh, interesting and fun, the knuckles are curved and twisted, and they are warped into orchid fingers, which are beautiful!
She is happy to play alone, and others can't practice.
"Big sister, can you rest?" Lu Mingyan reminded her in a whisper beside her.
"I'm not tired." People are getting a new gadget, haven't you had enough?
The room was full of Lu Lu's suffocating 'ding dingdong' piano sound.
Zeng Fuzi went out of the house on the pretext of something and let the students in the house review.
Yang Mingzhu is the maiden niece of the second old man's concubine Yang. Because the Yang family gave birth to two concubines, Lu and Lu Ying, they are very able to speak in front of Lu Yi. Lu Du was competitive again, and he also won the exam a year ago, so the tide rose. Even taking Yang Mingzhu in the Lu Mansion makes people look at it differently, and the treatment is the same as Lu Mingshu.
She is beautiful, and her family is also a wealthy businessman, but she is not as rich as Lu Fu, and her family sent her to Lu Fu Women's School not to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but to give her the opportunity to get close to several concubines of the Lu family, so that she can make friends with each other.
She herself takes a fancy to her cousin Lu Du, but, according to the thoughts of her family or the Yang family, she hopes that she will marry Lu Ying or Lu Xu, who is the grandson of the head of the long house.
After more than a year of enrollment, and living a young lady life in the Lu Mansion, Yang Mingzhu really thought that he was also a member of the Lu Mansion in the future, so he was arrogant and refused to give in.
Today, when I saw Lu Lu coming for the first time, he was mediocre in appearance and mediocre in talent, and the boss looked down on him in his heart.
In the end, she was the daughter of the long house, and she didn't say much, so she retreated to her seat after seeing each other hastily.
Unexpectedly, when she first learned the piano, she practiced endlessly, causing everyone else to stand by and watch with a bitter face.
Yang Mingzhu leaned over, glanced at Lu Lu's fingers, and suddenly smiled: "Big sister, you shouldn't be provoked here." ”
"Oh?" Lu Lu tilted his head to look at her, and asked unceremoniously, "Who are you?" ”
Yang Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, didn't she see the ceremony?
Lu Mingshu smiled softly: "Big sister is obsessed with practicing the piano, but I'm afraid I will forget, this is Sister Yang." The second sister of Aunt Yang's mother's family. ”
"Aunt Yang? Oh. Lu Lu glanced at her and said, "I practice mine, what are you doing here to watch?" Idle, huh? ”
"Me?" Yang Mingzhu made her choke on the plain, and her face turned red.
Another female student muttered, "Although we practice our own practice, your practice is messy, and our tunes are out of tune." ”
"Hey, who are you? What are you muttering behind your back? Lu Lu turned sideways to stare at the dissatisfied girl.
He is dressed in light green, combed with double rings, and only has a bead hairpin on his head, and his face is as white as jade, which means that he has more meat.
Lu Mingrong hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "Big sister, don't pay attention to her, beginners are like this, and we are also so novel." ”
"I remember that your surname is Yi, and I think you are also Aunt Yi's niece, right?"
Lu Mingrong smiled: "Yes, her name is Yi Jianmei." ”
"Didn't cut it? Hahaha! Lu Lu pointed at her and laughed and said, "Are you a female red and terrible, go down with scissors, it's gone." This name is good, appropriate for the occasion. ”
Yi Jianmei hid her face and burst into tears.
Can she be blamed for this? Ranking the word building generation, the younger sister in the family has Lanya, Juya, and Lian's all occupied, but she was born in winter, so she has a plum word. It's also going to be used to make fun of it, it's so bullying!
Woo, I'm going to go to Mr. to complain!
