Chapter 52: Ethnography (1)

In the past few days after Duan Hong and the others left, Huiyu had nothing to do, and she followed Caiyun and Liu Wujia to make clothes all day long.

Originally, the two Yunjin horses were made for Chang's clothes, but now that they live in the second room, it is not suitable for Chang's alone, so they ordered a set for Chang's and a set for Liao's. So I sent someone to ask Mohe for Liao's size.

During this period, Chang and Liao also came a few times. Hui Yu also asked what time of day she went to say hello. Liao's is just an aunt, where can she use Huiyu to ask for peace, and Liao's is afraid that Huiyu will chase her for this and that, so she only said that there is no need to be so troublesome, after all, Yurong Courtyard is far away, and it is easy to get cold when you get up in the morning. Of course, Huiyu is happy not to get up early, but she can't agree to come down in one go, so as not to be gossiped about. The aunt and nephew pushed each other back and forth, and finally decided to say goodbye on the first day of the new month and the fifteenth day of the month.

So in the past few days, Huiyu has slept until she wakes up naturally, and she also has a small kitchen to cook something she loves to eat, and the days are simply too moisturizing.

On this day, after Huiyu finished breakfast, Fang was going to call Caiyun and Liu Wujia to come in to make clothes. Then I heard someone announce: "The fourth girl is here." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Duo Yu pull the curtain and walk in, followed by a maid.

Hui Yu hurriedly called Duo Yu to come and sit down, ordered the emerald green to make a pot of tea, and ordered Hua'er to get some pastries and fruits.

Duo Yu covered her mouth and smiled: "Third sister, don't be busy, I just had breakfast, my sister is not hungry, let's sit down and talk first." ”

Hui Yu also smiled: "The fourth sister is the first time to come to me as a guest, how can I be inconsiderate?" ”

Duo Yu was not polite, grabbed the pastries on the table, took a bite lightly, and said: "The third sister's pastries are really delicious, they are different from what they are made in the kitchen on weekdays, but the people around my sister make them?" ”

Hui Yu didn't know if Duo Yu came to the Three Thrones for nothing this time, or just to chat, so she could only ask and answer, see the move, and said, "This is really not done by the kitchen." The second aunt took pity on me, which was far away from the kitchen, and I couldn't eat a hot meal when I came and went every day, so she built a small kitchen in the courtyard. The cook brought it from the fourth room, and my sister can come and taste it often if she likes to eat. ”

Duo Yu seemed to be very happy, and said, "Okay, my sister will definitely come to disturb my sister often in the future." He also said: "Sister, do you know that tomorrow our clan's private school will start classes again, and our sisters can go together." ”

Hui Yu was shocked, but no one told her about this, so she asked: "Good sister, you also know that I don't remember many things since I got better. I forgot about such an important thing as going to a private school.,Fortunately, my sister came to remind me...... Why don't you tell me about the private school? ”

Duo Yu sneered and said, "It's really time for me to come this time...... and tell the story of the private school in the clan.

It turns out that the northwest city is the border, the Confucian atmosphere is not very strong, and there are no great Confucian scholars, so the teachers of the private school in the city are very ordinary.

In order to create a good learning environment for the descendants of the clan, the Chu clan funded the establishment of a private school.

The private school is located in a specially built garden next to the long house. A stream was dug in the middle, and on the left was a school for the boys, and on the right was a private school for the girls.

The girls' learning is mainly piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and female red, which are the same in the morning and rest in the afternoon. Six days of study and one day off.

There are also exams at the end of each month.

Because the Northwest City is also more famous for the Chu clan study, some other family officials and eunuchs who can seek the Subei Hou Mansion all come to study in the clan study.

Therefore, although the four heads of the Chu family's branch are scarce, there are also about a dozen girls from the side branches and those from outside.

When the exam arrives at the end of the month, it is also full of competition and smoke...... In addition, there is a men's school next door, and the reputation of winning the top spot often spreads.

Hui Yu's head was big when she heard it, co-authoring this private school is not something that can be fooled by eating, drinking, and joking, and she is a halfway monk, who doesn't understand anything, isn't it proper to be at the bottom? When I think about it, this good day is coming to an end...

Duo Yu said again: "In the past, the second sister was the permanent owner of the laurels, but now the second sister is locked up and confined, and the top of the exam in these two months doesn't know who the flowers are..."

This is not something I have to care about, anyway, it has nothing to do with me, so I should think about how not to be too embarrassed at the bottom......

Hui Yu licked her face and said: "Fourth sister, I have this amnesia, and I have forgotten all these things I learned in the past, and when I get to the private school, I can get more care from my sister." ”

Duo Yu's eyes flashed, and she said, "Third sister is polite, we are sisters, and it is right to mention each other." ”

Hui Yu asked again what she should bring to the private school. It's good to prepare.,Piano.,Women's red needlework and other private schools are available.,You just need to bring a pen and paper.,Books.。

Not only did she ask Duo Yu for a request, but when she was leaving, Hui Yu asked Caiyun to wrap up Duo Yu's favorite pastries, and this enthusiasm made Duo Yu look at Hui Yu twice.

Hui Yu doesn't care, she has to lower her posture when she asks for someone, and it's nothing.

It's just that if you want to go to a private school, you have to say hello to Liao, so as not to suspect that you don't respect her.

So as soon as she got up in the afternoon, Huiyu took Caiyun to Anhua Hall.

Since moving into the second room, it is the first time for Huiyu to come to Anhuatang, and she can't help but take a few more looks along the way.

Anhuatang is also a small two-hall courtyard, but the area is larger than that of Yurong Courtyard.

There is a large tree in the four corners of the front yard, and there is a nursery under the tree, planted with small flowers of various colors.

Mo He stood at the door of the hall and saw Hui Yu coming, and while lifting the curtain, he said, "The third girl is here." ”

As soon as she walked into the hall, Hui Yu smelled a faint and refreshing fragrance, very similar to the smell of fragrant wood.

After sitting on the chair, Hui Yu smelled the fragrance more and more, and then looked at the texture of the chair, it was not fragrant wood... That day, I listened to the introduction of the shopkeeper in the store, saying that although fragrant wood is abundant in the northwest, most of the trunks are not big, only suitable for those decorative things, if it is made into furniture, you have to find hundreds of years of trees in the mountain forest, and there may be only a few in a mountain. Therefore, fragrant wood furniture is very valuable, and it is hard to find.

It seems that the second room is not poor at all, such a good furniture is placed, no matter how much you cry poor, who will believe it? Hui Yu secretly slandered herself.

"Sister Hui'er, why are you here? On a hot day, wouldn't it be nice if someone came over if something was wrong......"

Hui Yu looked back and saw Liao Shi holding Yu's mother's hand and walking in.

Huiyu hurriedly got up and saluted: "Second aunt, Hui'er has not come to greet you for many days, and she is very uneasy, so she came here on purpose. ”

Liao helped Huiyu to sit down and said, "I said that I don't have to be polite to my second aunt here, and my aunts and nephews don't have to care about these false courtesies." ”

Huiyu said again: "Although the false ceremony can be waived, but the second aunt takes care of Hui'er, Hui'er is very grateful, the cook in the small kitchen has a new recipe for making mung bean cake, Hui'er tasted it, it is more refreshing and delicate than what she usually eats." So I brought some for my second aunt to taste. ”

He ordered Caiyun to bring up the brocade box and open it.

Liao Shi was disrespectful, and took a taste, which was naturally also a lot of admiration.

Huiyu saw that the greeting was almost over, so she said: "Hui'er heard that the private school will resume tomorrow, so she plans to continue studying, and she is afraid that the second aunt will find me, so I will ask you for the right one." ”

Going to a private school to study is what the descendants of the Chu family have to do, and where is the Liao family not allowed, that is, a few words of entrustment. asked again if there was anything missing, and Hui Yu bluntly said that there was nothing to be prepared, and there was no need to add more.

The aunt and nephew politely spoke for a while, and then dispersed.

Tang's mother heard that Huiyu was going to the private school of the clan school, and she was busy preparing pen, ink, paper, inkstone and the like.

Hui Yu ordered Emerald Green to turn out all the books she had studied before, preparing to have a temporary cramming.

Who knows if you don't know if you don't see it, you are startled when you see it, and the full text of classical Chinese only sees Hui Yu's eyes full of gold stars, but fortunately, Hui Yu's previous life linguistic literature is okay, plus he still has a little memory of the original owner, so he can understand a rough idea. Just swallowing dates and watching, Huiyu also saw Hai Shi, and went to bed to rest under Tang's mother's repeated urging.
