Yueyao took the surname of the hundred families, pointed to the first one and said to Brother Zheng'er: "Come, Brother Zheng'er, this word is pronounced Zhao." Well, come, read Zhao ......"

Yue Yao taught Brother Zheng for a while, and then she understood why everyone said that Brother Zheng'er's qualifications were not good. Such qualifications are really so bad that they can't be worse. What she can remember after learning it once, Brother Zheng can't remember it ten times.

Yue Yao sighed softly.

Brother Zheng was very sensitive, and saw Yueyao frowning and sighing. "Sister, am I, am I really stupid?" ”

Yue Yao thought for a moment. Instead of saying anything comforting, it is better to tell him the facts, so as to spur the right brother. Blindly denying it is untrue: "Brother Zheng, your qualifications are a little worse than ordinary people, but this does not mean that you are stupid." Brother Zheng, the key to a person's success is not qualifications, but heart and perseverance. Your qualifications are worse than those of ordinary people, and you need to make up for it the day after tomorrow. Brother Zheng, as long as you can pay ten or even twenty times the sweat of others. I'm afraid that Brother Zheng will not be able to withstand such suffering. ”

Brother Zheng shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid of hardship, I will definitely listen to my sister." Study hard. "He is not afraid of suffering and sin, what he is afraid of is that his sister dislikes him and does not want him.

Yue Yao was relieved: "Well, as long as Brother Zheng has this determination, he will not be worse than anyone else in the future." "Learning depends on tenacity and perseverance. How many people with good qualifications end up being abandoned because of laziness. As long as there is perseverance, there is perseverance. Yueyao believes that even if he can't become a dragon, Brother Zheng will definitely not become an insect.

Brother Zheng nodded heavily: "I listen to my sister." ”

The wind blew on the windows, and the windows blew with a whirring sound. It seems that he can't see the two people in the room and is too involved to wake them up. However, no amount of noise could attract the attention of the two people in the room who were engaged in their studies.

Yueyao taught Zheng'er to read and write until two o'clock in the afternoon (six o'clock in the afternoon). In one afternoon, Brother Zheng recognized ten words: Zhao, Qian, Sun, Li Zhou, Wu, Zheng, Wang, Feng, and Chen.

Yue Yao couldn't help but sigh. Back then, her father recognized all the surnames of the hundred families in one day, and she only took half a day to recognize all the surnames of the hundred families, and she could still recite them backwards. But now, looking at the speed of Brother Zheng'er's literacy, it is estimated that it will take a month to complete the recognition of all the surnames of the hundred families. The premise of this must be to ensure that Brother Zheng can remember what he has learned, and he will not forget it when he wakes up tomorrow, otherwise......

After Yue Yao took a deep breath, she comforted herself in her heart that his expectations were not high, and his expectations were not high. This younger brother is lucky to come back, I don't expect him to be a scholar, I don't ask him to shine on the lintel, as long as he grows up peacefully and continues to have the blood of the second room, she will have her own family to rely on in the future, and she is no longer alone.

Yueyao comforted herself like this for a long time before calming down her impetuous mood.

After calming down, Yueyao had to be glad that she had stayed in the nunnery for ten years, and she had already smoothed out her temperament. Otherwise, with Brother Zheng'er's qualifications like rotten wood, with her arrogant and upright temperament in her previous life, I am afraid that she would have been impatient to teach Brother Zheng to throw her out.

Yueyao saw that the time was about the same, and it was time to rest. He walked out with Brother Zheng'er's hand, took a break and brought over the meal.

Yue Yao saw the sumptuous meal on the table and looked at Duqiu. Twilight is in charge of his meals, and she should be told to make it clear.

Twilight said with a smile, "This is the case of the girl and the young master. "Twilight Autumn means, Tingzheng is also according to the young master's specifications. So it should be more abundant than before.

Yueyao nodded, this is what they deserve, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

The two of them washed their hands and ate at the table. This will be different from noon, and this will take the initiative to let the flower buds add rice after a bowl of rice.

Yue Yao smiled at Brother Zheng to show encouragement. Brother Zheng also smiled. Yue Yao sighed in her heart, this child's requirements are really low.

After dinner, Yueyao took her brother Zheng to the courtyard again. As the sun sets, the two shadows, one long and one short, are stretched very long and long.

Yue Yao looked at the two shadows and suddenly said, "Brother Zheng, memorize what you learned today to your sister." Although it is only ten words, Yueyao hopes that Brother Zheng can remember what he has learned.

Brother Zheng read aloud, and Yueyao listened on the side. It's normal to be able to recite it, but if she can't recite it, she has to cry!

In the evening, Yueyao did not teach Brother Zheng to read again, but let Brother Zheng start to practice calligraphy. After Yue Yao wrote Zhao Zi, she said: "From today onwards, you will practice calligraphy during the day and practice calligraphy at night. ”

Liuti characters have always had the reputation of 'books are expensive, thin and hard, and they are clear'. Liu Gong's regular script, compared with the face body, is slightly uniform and hard, so it is called "Yan muscles and willow bones". So Lian Dongbo likes it very much, and he has been practicing willow body. She inherited this habit. Xi's hand is good willow characters. Yueyao's willow character has also been praised by many people. It is enough to enlighten the elder brother.

Brother Zheng listened to Yue Yao explain the willow character, looked up at Yue Yao and said, "Sister, what is the willow character?" In the afternoon's teaching, Yueyao encouraged him not to ask. Don't be afraid of being embarrassed, don't be afraid of not knowing anything. If you don't understand, you should ask, and this is how you can progress.

Brother Zheng is a good boy, so if you don't understand, you can ask.

Yue Yao was very happy when she saw Brother Zheng opening her mouth to solve it. He explained to him what a willow body is and what a face body is.

Yueyao wrote the handwriting for Brother Zheng to practice, and then Yueyao was fine. Watching Brother Zheng practice calligraphy, Yueyao thought that she had reached the top of her willow characters, and it was impossible to make any further progress, so she should learn a font. Yueyao searched the bookshelves for a long time, but she couldn't find a copybook that suited her heart. Finally, I took a copy of my father's essay and read it.

Brother Zheng practiced for an hour and a half all night, and practiced the ten words he learned during the day. Yueyao breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, she was not impatient to practice ten words in one night.

Yueyao finally discovered the first advantage of Brother Zheng'er, and he was patient enough.

It was getting late, and Yueyao asked Brother Zheng to rest. It is stipulated that you will get up at two o'clock tomorrow morning to recite the book (although it is only ten words, but you have to memorize it.) You have to make good habits).

Yueyao lived in Hugging Xia, and Brother Zheng arranged it in the east wing. Yueyao asked the fine juan and the drizzle to serve the elder brother. The two siblings are close to each other, which is convenient to take care of.

Yue Yao has decided that the housekeeper mother next to her brother will use Mother Deng, and the personal maid is undecided now, but it must be someone she can trust. The little guy who follows you closely also has to be carefully selected.

Yue Yao knows very well that she only belongs to the primary stage of employing people's hearts and strategies, and she still needs to learn a lot.

Thinking about the scene she was facing, Yueyao desperately hoped that Mother Deng would come back as soon as possible. With Mother Deng by her side to guide her, she can avoid a lot of detours.

Yueyao sat on the dresser and took off the hairpin on her head. From the bronze mirror, I watched Gu's mother walk in. In the past two days, Yueyao didn't show a face to Gu's mother. But it's not as close as it used to be, and the things that serve it also make the buds and twilight. completely set up my aunt.

Mother Gu took over the work of the flower bud and was going to give Yueyao her hair. Hua Bud saw Yueyao nodding at her, so she stepped aside.

Yue Yao was cold and optimistic as she watched her aunt comb her hair with a flattering look, and sneered in her heart. Why didn't I see through this person in my previous life, and I don't know what to do with such a pair of eyes.

However, Yue Yao didn't open her mouth to reprimand, just snub a few days ago, if she opened her mouth to reprimand now for no reason, it would hinder her reputation. After experiencing so many suicides in her previous life, she actually doesn't care much about her reputation, but it's not worth it to let such a person ruin her reputation. Endure it, and endure it for two more days.

Mother Gu smoothed Yueyao's hair, and said cautiously: "Girl, you haven't copied the scriptures for a day today?" ”

Yue Yao said lightly: "Let the second room break the bloodline to teach Brother Zheng'er to read and write, and raise Brother Zheng'er to grow up, this is the greatest filial piety to parents." "Copying the scriptures is just being led into a trap, and of course, the scriptures still have to be copied. It's just that the time is longer, and it's not limited to the scriptures.

Gu's mother's craftsmanship paused, and then hurriedly said: "Girl, you can't help it." Girl. Master Pu'an said...... "The reason why she has been so quiet in the past two days is that she is privately checking who is chewing her tongue in front of the girl. And what happened to the girl that night.

When asked Twilight, Twilight shook her head, only saying that the girl was startled by lightning and thunder that day, and that everything else was fine, nothing was abnormal.

If Hua Bud said this, my aunt would definitely not believe it. But Twilight is notoriously honest and never lies, so she has to make her aunt believe it.

Yueyao would tell Hua Bud about her mother's dream, but she didn't say a word to Twilight. It's not that Yueyao doesn't believe in Twilight, but she knows Twilight's temperament very well, she is too sincere, and honest is actually stupid. Yueyao is not afraid of Twilight's betrayal, but she can't guarantee that Twilight will not be calculated and tell the truth.

Yue Yao looked at Mother Gu with a sneer on the corner of her mouth. Not long after she came back, she went to Hualin Temple to offer incense, and Master Pu'an of Hualin Temple said that as long as she sincerely copied the Book of Filial Piety every day for a year, when the time came, she would burn it to her parents under the Nine Springs, and her parents would live better under the Nine Springs. For her, who lost her parents suddenly at that time, it was undoubtedly timely rain. Therefore, in her last life, she insisted on copying scriptures for a year, and buried herself in the scriptures every day. And because of this, I missed a lot of things.

Mother Gu was horrified when she saw Yueyao's look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling. But thinking of the eldest lady's promise, he could only stubbornly say: "Girl, don't give up halfway!" Mrs. Shi said that you must be sincere. ”

Yue Yao gently put the silver hairpin in her hand on the dresser: "Mom, don't worry, what to do and what not to do, I know in my heart." Mom, you're getting older, staying up late is not good for your health, mom will take care of your body in the future. The affairs of the yard will be left to Twilight Blossom Bud. ”

Gu's mother wanted to say that she could survive it, but she didn't look at her when she saw Yueyao, so she directly called Duqiu in and went out in a daze.

Yueyao waited for her aunt to go out, and a sneer crossed her eyes. It seems that Mo is in a hurry, so let Gu's mother come to the test. But now that there is a grandmother in town, Mo does not dare to make a move. Otherwise, grandmother would not have spared her.

After Yueyao lay down, she tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't sleep, and her mind was a mess. Yueyao couldn't sleep, so she simply got up and went to the small Buddha hall. Yue Yao looked at the table full of scriptures, and did not continue to copy the scriptures as usual. Instead, I was thinking about what to do next.

Yueyao sat in a chair and looked at the round moon outside. She came back in this life, not just for precautions, but also for the first time to come back and fight Mo's. As long as she is wary of Mo's and is no longer coaxed by her, and then finds outsiders to help her support her, and is no longer as lonely and helpless as in her previous life, Mo's will not dare to sell her.

So what does she do next? You can't be like the previous life again, muddy, confused.

Yueyao's mind was in a mess. Unexpectedly, I looked at a painting hanging on the wall. Yueyaomu stared blankly at the painting, which reminded her of her days in the nunnery.

There are a lot of women in the nunnery. If there are family members among these women, these people have money and food to send to them every month, and they have no worries about food and clothing; In addition, there is a large number of homeless people who devote themselves to the nunnery. This group of people must be self-reliant, because it is impossible for the nunnery to raise people in vain. In order to make a living, these women will work to earn money. Most of the people do embroidery or other things, and a small number of them can only do some rough work, which is very hard.

When she arrived at the nunnery, she realized that she was useless. I can't cook, I can't do it, I can't do anything. The master who was in charge of the affairs of the nunnery frowned when he looked at her. It's been a long time, not to mention the master steward, even the woman next to her despises her. It's like she's a parasite.

Later, it was the teacher who found out that she could write well and asked her to copy the scriptures. In the process of copying the scriptures, I found that she was very good at painting. So, she made money for the nunnery by copying scriptures and painting Bodhisattva Buddha statues. The income brought in was not cheap, and her days in the nunnery had just passed.

Yue Yao sat on the table and looked up at the picture of the sunset mountain. Although I don't want those talents in this life, I can't lose my talents. Not only can we not lose it, but we must also strive for excellence and look forward to higher progress. In this way, there is a real case that you can live by them.

Yueyao thought about painting, and couldn't help but think of Mr. Wen who kept saying to her that day that it was a pity, a pity for her talent. If you were a boy, you would definitely be accepted as a student, but she was born as a daughter.

Back then, Mr. Wen Chengxiang Wen agreed to teach Lian Dongbo to teach Yueyao because he wanted to return a favor to his friend. Later, although Mr. Wen thought that Yueyao was amazingly talented in painting, because Yueyao was a daughter, Mr. Wen also confiscated her as a student. The reason is very simple, for them, the daughter's family is married and has children to take care of the housework. Learning to paint is just to cultivate sentiments, and you can't do a serious thing. However, although Mr. Wen had such an idea, he was as strict with her as with his own students, and taught her with twelve distractions. It was also those four years that laid a solid foundation for her. It's a pity that there was an accident at home at that time, and I returned to Beijing before I had time to learn something deeper. Later, when she came back, she didn't ask her husband to teach her, she figured it out by herself.

Yue Yao clenched her hands, calligraphy was at the top and could not be improved. But painting is still just getting started, and she still has a lot of room for improvement. If you want to go further, you can only ask for help. It was impossible for her husband to take her as a student. But when she encounters a problem, she asks her for advice, and he will definitely guide her. Although I didn't go through systematic study in my previous life, I didn't have to study further, but I had more than 20 years of experience and painting. With the guidance of her husband, her painting skills will definitely be able to go up a few more steps.

Yueyao thought about it for a long time, and had a clear direction for the road to take in the future. I have a bottom in my heart, and my panic heart has dissipated a lot. Yue Yao went back to the house and lay on the bed, and couldn't help but think back to Brother Zheng'er who only recognized ten words in one afternoon.

Yueyao is really depressed now. Brother Zheng'er is lagging behind people of the same age in enlightenment, and now learning is slower than turtle crawling. At this rate, it will be a big step behind. Jin Shi lifts people or something, Yue Yao is no longer doing him, she thinks, according to this progress, it is God's grace that Brother Zheng can pass the examination for a showman.

Yue Yao smiled bitterly, and she didn't know why her brother's qualifications were so poor. Why is her brother so much worse than her. If she could, she would rather be mediocre and make her brother smarter!
