At that moment, Aunt Xia brought the maid here, Xianglan hurriedly let her inside, and Aunt Xia said, "I'll pick up the fourth girl back." ”

Lin Dongxiu said: "Good aunt, the sisters are here, let me be happy for a while." ”

Xianglan said: "Let's talk for a while, my aunt will go next door to rest first, and the second grandmother will also pick up tricks there." ”

Aunt Xia said secretly: "What Mrs. Lin means, one is to let me teach the four girls, and the other is to let me look at the character of the two girls of the Jiang family, it is better to stay, and then take a look, Fang is worthy of the trust of others and the rich silver." Thinking of this, he agreed in his mouth, led by Lingqing, and went to Tan Luhua's house.

At this time, Jiang Danyun suddenly stood up, walked towards the piano in the corner of the house, plucked the strings with his fingers slightly, and smiled at Xianglan: "This piano is good, can you let me try it?" ”

Xianglan smiled and said, "Since Miss Dan has Yaxing, we also have ears." ”

Jiang Danyun looked reserved, sat down, plucked a few notes, and tuned the strings, and played the dingdong pluck, the piano sound seemed to be flowing water, like a lonely goose singing, and sprinkled a song "Flat Sand and Falling Geese", which was picky and picky, and tried his best to be gorgeous.

Xianglan said secretly: "Jiang Danyun really plays the piano well, this song "Flat Sand and Falling Geese" is extremely difficult, but it is also exquisitely controlled, which shows that it has been carefully learned. ”

At the end of the song, everyone applauded.

Jiang Danyun's cheeks were slightly red, but he looked at the door and couldn't see Lin Jinlou standing outside, and he was faintly disappointed in his heart. Jiang Xiyun didn't know that Lin Jinlou was coming back, and when she saw her sister looking out, she couldn't help but feel a little strange, at this time Lin Dongxiu pushed her and said, "Sister Dan is so good at playing." Sister Xi is definitely not bad, why don't you play a song and listen to it with us? ”

Jiang Xiyun smiled and excused herself: "The fourth sister is the best at stroking the piano among our sisters, my skills are clumsy, and it is better to hide my ugliness." ”

Lin Dongxiu tried every possible way to pry Jiang Xiyun to play a song. Jiang Xiyun smiled and excused herself, Jiang Danyun took a sip of tea, looked at Xianglan, and said with a smile: "Sister Xianglan has a piano in her room." I think I'm also a person who has a tone of music, how about playing a song with us? ”

Xianglan saw that there was a provocative look on her face, and she didn't bother to say anything more about the scene, so she said: "I naturally can't play as well as Dan girl, so I should have fun and make everyone happy." After finishing speaking, he sat down and played a skit, which was very light and distant, and the fingering was not complicated. It's also not interesting.

One song is finished. The crowd could not help but praise them. Jiang Danyun covered his mouth and chuckled: "It's really good." There was a hint of disdain in his eyes, and his expression was very complacent.

Xianglan just smiled, in her previous life, the Shen family invited a gentleman with superb piano skills to come to the house to teach. She can still play "Flat Sand and Falling Geese", but her skills in this life have long been rusty. It's better to play fresh sketches and talk about yourself.

For a while, Lingqing and Lingsu came in again to put the melons and fruits again, and when Lingqing withdrew, he whispered in Xianglan's ear: "Uncle is back, let grandma greet the guests, don't worry about him, he will go out later." ”

Xianglan nodded, only to see Lin Dong Xiufu sit down by the piano and play again, Jiang Danyun leaned over, the two talked about five tones and six rhymes for a while, and commented on the difficulty of playing each faction of "Guangling San", but it was very harmonious, Xianglan was also relieved, turned around and went to the warm pavilion to appease Tan Luhua, and talked to Aunt Xia again.

Jiang Xiyun sat in the room and only felt very bored, the original family invited a master who knew the rhythm of music to teach their sisters a few strokes of the qin, she followed the study for a long time, listening to the palace Shangjiao Zhengyu and dozens of fingering techniques felt dizzy, and not very interested. Besides, she felt that there were only a few elegant people who were willing to appreciate the guqin, and she was just a concubine in the family, and it was useless to learn this, so she threw it aside. She took a sip of tea, looked up, and saw Lin Dongxiu playing "Yangguan Three Stacks", although it was not very smooth from time to time, but it also seemed to be similar, Jiang Xiyun felt very bored, so she stood up and went to the courtyard to relax.

Because of the visitors in Changchun Hall, the maids with heads and faces went to serve, there were occasionally one or two little girls in the yard, Jiang Xiyun saw that there were some strange grass fairy vines planted in the courtyard, a few mountain stones, lined with various colors of peaches, plums, begonias and other trees, the scenery was elegant, slowly turned to the backyard, you can see the layers of rockeries behind the back, and a few bushes of orchids, and various orchids are planted in another pot.

She stood there, but she didn't know that Aunt Xia's little maid Fangfei was pinching impatiens and dyeing her nails behind the rockery on one side, and she didn't know that a window in the bedroom was facing here, and Lin Jinlou was crooked on the low couch, hidden behind the soft curtain, and she could be seen. Lin Jinlou half-squinted his eyes and looked at it, only to see that this girl was born very fair-skinned, and she did not use fat powder, and the hair of the crow crow was lined with a bright and beautiful face.

Jiang Xiyun glanced at the backyard slightly, then stopped and turned around to walk back, but saw her personal maid Ruoqing coming over to her, because she asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Ruoqing said: "I'm afraid that the girl's heart will be hot, so I'll send a bottle of Xuejin Dan." ”

Jiang Xiyun smiled: "You are a careful person, where is it so hot." As he spoke, he took the vial of Xuejindan.

Ruoqing asked, "Why is the girl here?" ”

Jiang Xiyun sighed: "The two people in the room are talking about how many ways to play "Guangling San", it's boring, I'll come out." ”

Ruoqing said with a smile: "The girl doesn't love these, and the family invited the lady to teach the piano before, and the girl fell asleep after listening to it." ”

Jiang Xiyun said: "A deep boudoir woman, what is the use of poetry, songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" I can't eat it as food, if I am a man, after learning this, I can also set up a career and take the imperial examination. But I'm a woman, can I be like my big sister and have a reputation as a talented woman? The eldest sister is famous for marrying a noble son-in-law, but I'm afraid that I will become a little wife after learning this. ”

Ruoqing said suspiciously: "I don't understand what the girl said. ”

Jiang Xiyun said: "These things for the girls in the boudoir since elementary school are just for the sake of marrying in the future, whether it is a female celebrity, a middle feed, or a literacy account, all for the purpose of being practical in the future, and being able to take care of the inner house for the outer son, even if she is like the eldest sister, she has become a talented woman by chanting poetry, but it is just for a good reputation and a better husband." But the eldest sister crawled out of his wife's belly, and naturally married the eldest son of Uncle Zhongyong, so I didn't have such a good life. Even if you learn these bells and whistles, you can't catch up with the big sister, so it's better to learn some needlework. The Israelite who was a concubine went to learn these to please the masters. Isn't Aunt Lu just knowing these pianos, chess, calligraphy and paintings to make my father take a look? So let the fourth sister also learn a stomach of those things. It's too good to be a woman to read, or it's not a good thing to learn these piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it's better to learn the female red and specialize in it, and have a skill. If you can get a good reputation, why not? ”

Ruoqing smiled: "Ouch, my girl, it's strange that the old lady always praises you for being the one who knows the most in her heart, and the truth in this world makes you absolutely speechless." ”

As he was talking, he saw Xianglan come out to look for someone, and Jiang Xiyun followed him back to the house.

At this time, Lingqing came in to deliver a hot towel to Lin Jinlou, and saw that he was leaning on the Luohan bed and touching his chin, not knowing what he was thinking, and he didn't dare to disturb. He stepped back lightly.

Lin Jinlou got up and walked to the bed. Lift the veil. I saw that De Ge'er was sleeping inside, covered with a small quilt, and his face was red from sleep. Lin Jinlou hugged De Ge'er. I wiped his face with a hot towel, and the child woke up. The little hands rubbed their eyes, still looking sleepy.

Lin Jinlou said in Dege'er's ear: "Don't sleep, do something for your uncle, and come back with a reward." ”

De Ge'er seemed to be asleep and said: "I'm sleepy, I'll sleep for a while"

"Tsk, you stupid boy, you have said a lot of rewards, and I will take you to the horse run when I turn around."

As soon as De Ge'er heard the "running horse", he was in good spirits, and his eyes widened.

Here Jiang Danyun and Lin Dongxiu discussed the piano skills for a while, Jiang Danyun stroked the piano a few songs in a row, Xianglan saw that Jiang Xiyun was not very interested, so she said something else, and ordered the maid to make tea to invite everyone to eat, Jiang Xiyun wanted to say goodbye, but Jiang Danyun knew that Lin Jinlou was coming, and was trying to show off his talent, where was he willing to go when he was sweet, and saw a set of purple sand plantain mountain tea sets placed on the corner of the house, so he said: "Sister Xianglan has this set of things in the house, and I want to come and enjoy tea, I am not talented, and I am a little finer, so it is better for us to fight tea." , and how about fun? ”

Jiang Xiyun raised her forehead and said secretly: "Fourth sister, even if you want to marry Lin Jinlou, you don't have such a concubine, you know that your painting skills are not as good, and your piano skills are superior, so you desperately suppress people and gain the upper hand. The more you want to marry someone, the more you should befriend someone's concubine, otherwise a few words of wind blowing on someone's pillow will be enough for you to drink a pot. ”

Xianglan smiled: "Miss Dan is an elegant person, where can I fight tea, but I saw such a set in the treasury, and I remembered that the book said that the Tang and Song dynasties divided tea, so I put it out to be vassal." ”

Jiang Danyun shook his fan and chuckled: "That's a pity, it's a pity, there are not many people who will be there now, I thought I met a bosom friend." ”

Lin Dongxiu had a little friendship with Xianglan in the end, and couldn't help frowning when she heard this, and just about to speak, Xianglan quietly pulled her, and Lin Dongxiu had to keep her mouth shut. At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and a little man lifted the curtain of the door, revealing a round little black face, and after a glance around the room, his eyes fell on Xianglan, and he called out in a soft voice: "Aunt Lan." ”

When Xianglan saw it, she was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly stepped forward, pulled De Ge'er to the house, and said, "Didn't you say that you were sick?" Why don't you rest at home and come out? ”

De Ge'er walked to the Luohan bed and climbed up by himself, and said: "I had a fever last night, and I will be fine during the day, my father went to the suburbs of Beijing on business, and Uncle Lin said that he wanted me to come and live here for a few days." ”

Xianglan was pleasantly surprised, touched De Ge'er's forehead for a while, and didn't know what to give him to eat for a while, so she remembered it after a busy while, and said to everyone: "This is the youngest son of Yongchang Hou, Brother De." ”

Lin Dongxiu's face was a little uncomfortable, knowing that the sister of the Jiang family was quietly looking at her, so she stepped forward, endured the awkwardness in her heart, squeezed out a smile, touched Brother De'er's face and said, "What a good boy." ”

Brother De'er was a little shy, hung his head and didn't speak, suddenly remembered something, raised his head, looked at Xianglan and asked, "Aunt Lan, let me ask you, what is the use of learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, if you don't eat or drink?" ”

Pandan was stunned. Next door to the house, Aunt Xia was picking up the tea bowl and hearing the words.
