The seventh episode of Daiyu's apprenticeship
Soon after Mr. Huang left, Lin Ruhai returned home, and when he heard that Daiyu was receiving him, he called Daiyu to ask, and Daiyu would not hide it and talked about the reception process in detail, and talked about Huang Jiyun's desire to accept apprentices, and told Huang Jiyun that he would come again tomorrow at noon. After speaking, he didn't retreat, but stared at Lin Ruhai. Seeing her like this, Lin Ruhai stretched out his hand to stroke Daiyu's head and smiled: "My Yu'er is really a blessed person!" Daiyu couldn't help but feel a little curious when she heard him sigh like this, but she didn't urge her, and only looked at Lin Ruhai with big watery eyes. Lin Ruhai didn't let Daiyu wait for a long time, and after thinking about it, he said: "Your Uncle Huang's original name is Huang Jing, the word Jiyun, and his father is the same department, and he is the first champion and the first in the imperial gift. Later, they edited together at the Hanlin Academy. It's just that he doesn't know what it means to resign and go into hiding, and this matter still makes his old father angry. Speaking of this, Lin Ruhai picked up the tea bowl and cut the tea foam, but he didn't drink it, he just played with it in his hand, he didn't know what to think of, shook his head before he continued: "A few years ago, many children in Beijing wanted to worship him as a teacher, but he refused. A few days ago, I talked to your mother that I wanted to find you a gentleman, I don't know where he got the words, I also put the idea on him, and today he actually mentioned it himself, which shows that my Yu'er is loved by everyone. He laughed.
Daiyu heard Lin Ruhai say that she didn't have the idea of beating him, so she guessed that Daiyu had never worshiped Huang Jiyun as a teacher in the original book, so her heart became inexplicably happy.
Lin Ruhai's father and daughter here just finished talking, and Jia Min also received a message from her mother-in-law, saying that the embroidery girl was willing to decide whether to accept the apprentice until she saw the girl, Jia Min thought about it and asked Kapok to run to find Daiyu over, who knew that after a while, it was Lin Ruhai who personally brought Daiyu over. Jia Min didn't care about saying anything else, so he had to wait for Lin Ruhai to freshen up and change his clothes, and let the woman wait outside the door. Lin Ruhai didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the inner house, and when he heard that Jia Min had already inquired properly, he nodded and said, "Madame is in charge" Jia Min was even more happy when he heard this, so he called his mother-in-law and asked him to come over.
Daiyu knew that Mr. was going to come over in a while, so she was going back to change her clothes to show her solemnity, and Jia Min saw Daiyu's little person with a serious and serious look, and she was even more happy to see her eyebrows.
Daiyu changed her clothes, freshened up, and saw that people were more energetic, so she rushed to the upper room, because Mr. Embroidery was a female gentleman, Lin Ruhai went to the outer study to avoid. Only Daiyu was left chatting with Jia Min, while waiting curiously for Mr. Embroidery. Jia Min saw that there was nothing to do, so he talked to Daiyu about this embroidery gentleman, Daiyu heard that this embroidery gentleman was originally from the palace, so he was even more solemn, and sat straight on Jia Min's left hand side, looking out of the door from time to time. This woman goes fast and comes back quickly. After more than half an hour, the mother-in-law led a woman dressed as a woman and walked in, the woman's facial features are not prominent, but the whole is very comfortable, giving people a very peaceful and quiet feeling. was neither humble nor arrogant to Jia Min, and then stood aside and stopped talking, nor looked around, just stood there quietly. Jia Min asked her mother-in-law to step back, let people serve tea, and didn't say much else, so she went straight to the topic and led Daiyu to the front, and said: "This is my daughter, the daughter of the Lin family, named Daiyu, looking for you is hoping that she can learn embroidery from you." After speaking, he nodded and motioned for Daiyu to go to the woman, and Daiyu walked to the woman according to her words and deeds, and made a good fortune salute, so she stood still. At this time, the woman's eyes turned to Daiyu, and Daiyu found that this woman's eyes were very bright, looking at her eyes, you would unconsciously ignore her facial features, clothing, etc. Daiyu was looking at this woman, this woman was also looking at Daiyu, seeing that the girl was very small, extremely delicate, with a pink little face, a pair of bright and clear eyes, and was looking at herself curiously, so she smiled gently and said: "Learning embroidery is a very hard thing, you may insist?" Daiyu didn't answer, thought about it and asked, "What does Mr. want to teach Su embroidery?" Or Hangzhou embroidery? Seeing Daiyu ask, the woman raised her eyebrows and asked without answering: "Do you know the difference between Suzhou embroidery and Hangzhou embroidery?" Daiyu thought about it and was not sure, after all, she had not had much contact in her previous life, and most of them were machine embroidery, but she also had the courage to reply: "I can't say it well, but I think Hangzhou embroidery is more atmospheric, the stitches are smart, and Suzhou embroidery is more delicate and ingenious." Hangzhou embroidery is close to life, and Suzhou embroidery is close to nature. Listening to Daiyu's answer earnestly and not impetuous, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "From the needle point of view, Suzhou embroidery and Hangzhou embroidery have a lot of common points, from the selection of materials, Hangzhou embroidery is more focused on mythological allusions, Suzhou embroidery is more focused on fish, insects, flowers and birds, from the color of Hangzhou embroidery is more bright and lively, Suzhou embroidery is more simple and natural." After hearing this, Daiyu stared at the gentle-looking woman with bright eyes, and continued to ask, "What kind of embroidery will the gentleman teach me?" The woman did not answer the previous question: "Embroidery is a very hard work, you may persevere?" Daiyu thought about it and nodded and replied: "Yes" The woman smiled when she heard this, and turned to Jia Min: "I wonder if Mama Chen has told Madame that the little woman is taking apprentices for the elderly?" Jia Min smiled: "It is Daiyu's blessing to be able to provide for her husband." Seeing that Jia Min was gentle and Daiyu was smart, the woman nodded to Daiyu and said, "Get ready to worship and come to me again." My surname is Luo, and my name is Sujuan. You can call me Master Luo, Mr. Luo, or Aunt Luo. After speaking, he bowed to Jia Min slightly, and then got up and left.
When Daiyu saw her leaving, she walked to Jia Min's side and asked uncertainly, "Did she promise to accept me as an apprentice?" Why is it gone again? Jia Min was very happy to hear it and said to Daiyu: "This is a promise to accept you as an apprentice, because I want to follow you to support the elderly, you are her only disciple, so you can't do it casually, naturally you have to pick an auspicious day to choose an auspicious time, and your father and mother will lead you to come to the door to worship in person, please enter the house." Daiyu listened to it and thought about it, and then told Huang Jiyun about accepting apprentices before, Jia Min didn't know about it before, and she was startled when she heard it at this time, and asked a little excitedly: "Is this true?" Seeing Daiyu nodded. He said excitedly: "This is really good! Do you know how many people want to be his teacher? Even when Brother Yan was there, I also told your father that I hoped that Brother Yan would worship him as a teacher, but your father did not hold out hope and said that it was unlikely, and he never thought that he would be willing to accept me as an apprentice. Speaking of being uncomfortable and relieved, Daiyu didn't know how to comfort for a while, so she had to say: "Maybe it's Brother Yan who knows his mother's wish, and uses me to fulfill it, so as to ease his mother's heart, don't be sad for your mother, you are so sad, and my brother is also sad to think about it." Jia Min sniffed after hearing this, and looked at Daiyu more lovingly.
In the evening, Jia Min and Lin Ruhai talked about Daiyu's apprenticeship, and they hesitated for a while before saying: "I didn't think that Mr. Huang would open his mouth to accept Yu'er as an apprentice, this Aunt Luo will follow Yu'er to support the elderly in the future, that is, Yu'er will marry in the future, so she attaches great importance to accepting apprentices, this kind of etiquette must not be sloppy, but I don't know what Mr. Huang's charter is?" Although Mr. Huang is free and easy, don't you scholars pay attention to these things? Jia Min asked a lot angrily, Lin Ruhai just smiled lightly: "And it doesn't have to be like this, it's a matter of Aunt Luo's side to pick a day to come out first, Ji Yun's side he will always come over tomorrow at noon, you are good to buy a table, he will talk to me about this, isn't it useless for you to think about it here now?" Let's listen to Ji Yun's meaning and then make a conclusion. After closing his eyes and saying no more, Jia Min had no choice but to turn off the lights and fall asleep.
When he woke up the next day, it was not yet dawn, and Jia Min hurriedly got up and started to hold the banquet at noon without waiting for Lin Ruhai. After sorting out the list, from the dishes to the cook, from rice to tea, even the utensils used, the bonsai flowers and trees that were furnished, were also sent to Lin Ruhai's desk, at this time Lin Ruhai just got up, and was surprised to see Jia Min not on his side, so he saw Jia Min hurriedly come in, holding the list in his hand, and asked curiously: "This morning, what are you doing?" After speaking, he saw Jia Min leaning over with a happy face: "Master, help me take a look, what does this Mr. Huang like, and I can arrange it, right?" Seeing that Jia Min was so active, Lin Ruhai was very smiling, but seeing that Jia Min had been in a bad spirit since his brother left, and now this spirit is very unnecessary. So he smiled and took the list and glanced at it, threw it aside and didn't mention it, but took Jia Min's hand and asked her to sit down next to her. Jia Min was a little unhappy when he saw Lin Ruhai throw away the list, and he was a little shy when he saw him holding his hand, and his cheeks suddenly lit up. I forgot what I was going to say when I lowered my head. But Lin Ruhai said with a smile: "Mrs. doesn't need to bother so much, Ji Yun doesn't value these, it's good to have light and delicate dishes, yes, Ji Yun eats fish." There is no need to set up any bonsai bottles, Wen Yuxuan has two pots of Xiangshan Xiaofeng's spirit over there, and the swan dance in Yu'er's yard is also very exquisite, so it's good, as for tea, before yesterday, I may have to cut my love, but today I don't need to, ask Yu'er to make a pot for her master, Ji Yun must be satisfied. Speaking of this, he paused, looked at Jia Min suspiciously, and asked, "When did Mrs. teach Yu'er the tea ceremony?" Jia Min looked up at him in surprise when he heard this, completely forgetting the previous shyness: "Didn't the master teach it?" The couple saw surprise and confusion in each other's eyes, Lin Ruhai hesitated for a moment and asked, "Has Mrs. taught Yu'er chess?" "I remembered that day when Daiyu and Ji Yun played chess, although their chess skills were not good, they saw the rules for the first time, so I asked this question. Who would have thought that Jia Min would be even more confused and at a loss, "Chess?" Did the master say that Yu'er could play chess? How did I not know about this? As soon as these words came out, Lin Ruhai and his wife were also full of doubts.
Jia Min looked up at the window and saw that it was already dawning, so he got up to call for water, and freshened up for Lin Ruhai with his own hands.
As soon as he sat down, he saw Aunt Bai open the curtain and let Daiyu into the house, and without waiting for Daiyu to salute, Jia Min got up and walked over, pulled Daiyu is look up and down before asking, "Why don't you sleep more?" It's so cold, it's not in the way. After that, he took Daiyu back to Luohan's bed and sat down, although Daiyu was held in Jia Min's arms, she still greeted Jia Min, Lin Ruhai and his wife. Lin Ruhai also looked at Daiyu with loving eyes, and saw that although Daiyu's eyes were full of energy, she couldn't stop the faint cyan under her eyes, so she asked, "But it's not good to rest?" Of course, Daiyu didn't rest well, thinking that two characters who were not in the original book would soon appear in her life, although she didn't know if she could change her fate, but could she not be excited? This excitement is that I didn't fall asleep for half a night, and I woke up before dawn this morning, just like Jia Min, if it wasn't for the fear of disturbing Lin Ruhai and his wife's rest, I would have come over early. But he couldn't say that, so he only said: "Yu'er thought that there would be two masters soon, and she was happy, so she slept late last night, which was very untroubled." Seeing this, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min didn't say much, only passed on breakfast and ate quietly.
After breakfast, Lin Ruhai went to the front study, leaving Daiyu's mother and daughter to gossip for a while, and Jia Min asked about playing chess and tea art. It's easy to say that playing chess, but I saw Lin Ruhai playing chess in the past, and I prevaricated in the past, after all, Daiyu's chess skills are really not good, and it is very in line with the identity of a beginner, but this tea art, Daiyu was entangled for a long time last night, and finally pulled Jin'er over to round the lie, it was interesting to see Jin'er making tea, Jin'er taught one or two, after all, Jia Min knew that Jin'er would do this, although there were still doubts in his heart, he didn't ask more, just waited to find Jin'er to come over and ask when he was free.
Because Mr. Huang is a foreign man after all, even if he is accompanied by Lin Ruhai, it is not good to often go in and out of the backyard house, and in order to facilitate Daiyu's travel, the banquet is set up in the open flower hall behind the outer study, and the hall is placed with three or five pots of chrysanthemums is a treasure, and it is light and elegant. When Huang Jiyun walked into the hall, he saw that the thick curtains on all sides had been tied, leaving only the autumn yellow curtains on half of the walls. There are also a few pots of chrysanthemums on the outer half wall of the veil, which bloom very well. There is no superfluous house in the hall by the southeast and west walls under each two circle chairs and tea case, there is an octagonal table in the middle of the hall, with a color of pineapple wood, elegant but not public, it is very into the eyes of Huang Jiyun, there is an enamel aromatherapy burner on a small case under the north wall, the misty cigarette smoke is scattered in the hall with the wind, the aroma is not strong, and even a little refreshing.
Lin Ruhai smiled when he saw him looking around: "Ji Yun is still satisfied?" Huang Jiyun looked at Lin Ruhai puzzled, Lin Ruhai was very satisfied when he received his puzzled eyes, and then continued: "This is specially arranged for you by Yu'er early in the morning. Huang Jiyun was very surprised when he heard this, and he said in his heart that this apprentice had not yet received it, so he knew what I liked and disliked. Ben Lang laughed out loud and found a chair to sit down. Seeing this, Lin Ruhai was satisfied, so he shook his head and sat down.
Lin Ruhai's concentration is finally even better than Huang Jiyun, Huang Jiyun waited for a long time and finally spoke directly: "The little brother doesn't say that Xuefu Wuche has a belly, and he thinks he still has some experience, although there are many people who come to apprentice, but none of them are in my spleen and stomach. After that, he turned his head to look at Lin Ruhai with sincere eyes and continued: "The little brother wants to accept Brother Ruhai's beloved daughter as an apprentice!" Words are a direct affirmation. Lin Ruhai didn't expect Huang Jiyun to be so direct, and felt his sincerity, and after a moment's consideration, he said: "Yu'er can worship you as a teacher, it is her blessing, and her mother and I are also full of joy." It's just that Yu'er is still young and a woman, and she won't be able to make a name for herself in the future, I'm afraid that it will delay your kung fu in vain. After hearing this, Huang Jiyun waved his hand casually and said: "I don't need her to make a name for me, if I am famous, why not today?" It's just that I like her spiritual intelligence and my temperament, so Brother Hai doesn't have to worry about it. ”
Lin Ruhai smiled reassuringly after hearing this: "That is the case, then what day do you choose, I can also send a post to invite people to come to watch the ceremony." Who knew that Huang Jiyun said indifferently: "I, Huang Jiyun, have accepted disciples, I don't care about those auspicious days of the zodiac, and I don't care how many people come to watch the ceremony." It's good to just know a few friends to be a witness, after all, Yu'er doesn't need to be famous. Hearing Huang Jiyun say this, Lin Ruhai was a little hesitant, and after thinking about it, he said: "My Lin Ruhai's daughter is apprenticed, and it is you, a contemporary Confucian, how can you be sloppy at will?" To tell the truth, Ji Yun also knows that my Lin family has only one daughter in the past hundred years, and the foolish brother is nearly half a hundred years old. Huang Jiyun saw that Lin Ruhai was speaking frankly and earnestly, and he also took a deep breath and hesitated before nodding and said: "In this case, Brother Ruhai arranged it, if you want to do it big, you will send out all the posts." In the same year of the Quartet, the old friends of the capital, friends and colleagues of the same department, and relatives in the clan. It was sent out at the same time. Even if you can't come, you will have to be notified. I, Huang Jiyun, am going to accept apprentices, and I am the first apprentice, or the only apprentice, the heir of the mantle! Presumably, there are not a few people who can come to watch the ceremony. I invited the head of Taowu Academy, Mr. Qiu, to come and testify. Seeing Huang Jiyun say this, Lin Ruhai's heart was full of gratitude, and he agreed on the date of the apprenticeship. Summoned Daiyu to come out and make a pot of tea for Huang Jiyun and asked for peace. So they dispersed to draw up lists, write posts and other things.
Here worship Huang Jiyun as a teacher, you can imagine how loud it will be, over there Daiyu accompanied Jia Min to lunch, Jia Min took Aunt Luo's eight-character Daiyu to the temple and asked the abbot to help find an auspicious day of the zodiac.
Daiyu has been in this world for more than ten days, but today is the first time to go out, and her heart is very excited. Sitting in the carriage with Jia Min, he lifted the corner of the curtain from time to time and looked out. Jia Min said that she was a child and did not stop her, but always turned the bridge and asked Kapok and others to help Daiyu, afraid that she would make a mistake.
After jolting in the carriage for nearly an hour, Jia Min's mother and daughter finally came to the door of a temple, because Jia Min was married, and Daiyu was very young and did not wear any scarbs and other things. Daiyu thought it would be the Hanshan Temple that has been passed down through the ages, but then she looked up and saw that the lintel was clearly written with the three big characters "Guiyuan Temple", and she felt regretful in her heart. Because he had already sent his family to take care of it, Jia Min led Daiyu to follow a small novice and wanted to preside over the abbot's place. The temple is not big, the yellow walls and red tiles, the frequent pine and cypress are very Zen and full of tranquility and Qingyuan, Jia Min saw Daiyu looking around, so he said in a low voice: "Although Guiyuan Temple is not as large as Hanshan Temple, it has a very deep heritage. The presiding abbot and the lord are even more forgetful friends, and Buddhism is profound. This is where Brother Yan'er's rituals are done. Saying that, Jia Min's gaze couldn't help but darken.
When the good day came out, it was already the time to hold the lamp, and Jia Min's weak body was a little unbearable all the way, leaning in the car and closing his eyes to recuperate, and Daiyu was tired after playing in front of the temple for an afternoon, leaning on Jia Min's side, and no longer moving.
The temple is in the city, and after a while, it returned to the Daotai Mansion, until this time Daiyu Fang knew that Lin Ruhai is now Suzhou Daotai, and the government is located in Gusu, and he lives in this Daotai Mansion, not in the ancestral house.
Jia Min saw that Daiyu was tired, so she ordered Jin'er to take care of her and sent her back to the West Cross Courtyard directly.
When he returned to the ridge, he called Qiluo to know that Lin Ruhai had eaten in the front yard, and he hastily washed up and eaten, and when he was thinking about it, he saw that Lin Ruhai had returned, and he greeted him, and took the hair mole and asked someone to send warm water to wash his hands and clean his face for Lin Ruhai, and then retreated from everyone.
Lin Ruhai saw that Jia Min was in a good mood despite her tired eyebrows, and knew that it was the afternoon that satisfied her. So he asked, "What does the master say?" Is the date set? Jia Min was happy in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "No, the master has calculated a few days for Yu'er, and the old man will see that there are two good days in this month, and then it will be the first month." I thought that Aunt Luo was alone, and she was not lonely in the new year, so it was better to pick one of the two days of this month, and I would have picked up Aunt Luo's house earlier. As he spoke, he took a slip from the bed table and handed it to Lin Ruhai. Lin Ruhai thought about it for a while, and then told Jia Min about the results of the discussion with Huang Jiyun. Knowing that Layue Daiyu will worship the teacher, there will be no fewer people, and the apprenticeship banquet must be a big event, so after thinking about it, he said: "In this case, it will be picked in four days, how do you see it?" Lin Ruhai thought for a while and said: "I'm afraid I'm a little rushed in four days, I think the middle of the day is good, but it's better to discuss with Mr. Luo on this day." When people come in, they can pick up the yard first, and they must not lose their etiquette. Jia Min nodded after hearing this.
Early in the morning of the second day, Jia Min called Grandma Sun, who was married, and asked Grandma Sun to take Kapok and Mrs. Chen to Aunt Luo's house. Before noon, Jia Min came and went, and Aunt Luo chose the seventeenth day without objection, and let Daiyu come to the door to apprentice, and then Aunt Luo invited several masters from the Gusu embroidery workshop to come to witness and dine in that house. After hearing this, Jia Min understood that Aunt Na Luo should be eighteen to enter the mansion, so he sent someone to summon Daiyu.
Daiyu already knew it in her heart, so she didn't wait for Jia Min to finish speaking, and said: "Wangmei has a large area, but it's too far back, and Aunt Luo doesn't need such a large area alone, I look at Liuchun or ask Qiuqiu It's good, open a small corner door behind my west courtyard and go to Liuchun Garden." But after all, Aunt Luo is a foreign surname, Liuchun Garden is too close to the main courtyard, Aunt Luo is afraid that it will be inconvenient, ask the best scenery in autumn, summer can appreciate the lotus, ask chrysanthemum in autumn, a few weeping willows are planted in Shanghai on the side of the pond, when the new sprouts come out in spring, a little new green is also very pleasant, and the main courtyard is separated by a lotus pond, and there is also a side door in and out of the open flower hall is also close to convenience, or friends or hospitality are good. Furthermore, although Qiu Yuanzi is small, the rooms are all bright, and it is good to do needlework. There are three bright rooms, one is Aunt Luo's bedroom, one is for Aunt Luo's hospitality, one is used to learn needlework, and there are five dark rooms, although they are not as bright as the bright house, but they are used to make a storeroom, a people's room, and it is also very good. After speaking, he looked at Jia Min and stopped talking, Jia Min didn't expect Daiyu to say such a lot of truth, and she thought about it very thoughtfully. Seeing that she had raised the four gardens in the backyard to the third garden, only Wen Zhu didn't mention it, so she asked, "How does Yu'er see Wen Zhuxuan?" Daiyu knew that this was to test her, so she raised her head and replied solemnly with a serious face: "That's for my brother to live in the future!" "The little face is very serious. Jia Min didn't expect Daiyu to have such an answer, and remembered that Brother Yan'er couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, so Daiyu saw this and continued: "Mother, hurry up and give Yu'er a younger brother." Jia Min couldn't help but laugh as a child's talk, but didn't continue the topic and asked, "Then Yu'er thinks it's better to let someone serve over there?" Daiyu had already thought about these questions last night, but she felt that she couldn't make the decision on this matter, but she didn't expect Jia Min to ask herself, she was very happy in her heart, and said: "Since my mother asked, then Yu'er thinks it's good for Zhi'er to come back in a few days and let her go to Aunt Luo's side, after all, Zhi'er has been away from her mother's side for several years, and the affairs of her mother's side have already formed a charter, and it is very unnecessary to suddenly join Zhi'er." Zhi'er is a child of the family and went out of her mother's room, and she is familiar with the personnel in the house, and she is also a little decent. Aunt Luo is very needy when she first arrives. And Zhi'er is always dangling in front of her mother's eyes, and Yu'er is worried about her mother's sadness. arranged her to be next to Aunt Luo. It was given to the big maid in the mother's room, and Aunt Luo would also feel valued, and she would be happy to think about it. In addition, it is very good to arrange two little maids and two sprinklers to sweep the mother-in-law, I don't know what my mother thinks? Jia Min was very surprised when she saw that Daiyu was thinking about it in a clear way, especially when she mentioned Zhi'er's arrangement. For a while, I sighed that Daiyu seemed to have grown up.
