Chapter 21: Ethnography (1)

The ethnology was built on a hill near the water, and the eaves of the house were built on the edge of the cliff, which was very dangerous to look at. The south-facing slope is full of bamboo, and eight identical stone steps extend from the bamboo forest, and it is not known which one leads to the teaching house.

Yaoye and Yuyue recognized the way, and Mei Jiu and Mei Ruyan saved the trouble of finding the way, but even so, when the two arrived at the churchhouse, they were already tired like a puddle of mud.

Mei Jiu said with a bitter face, "Could it be that you have to climb the mountain every day in the future?" ”

"Lady, the slave doesn't want to pour cold water on you." Yao Ye was a little out of breath, "But the fact is that not only do you have to climb the mountain, but you also have to go to the back mountain to eat for lunch!" ”

"Back Mountain?" Mei Ruyan held on to the bamboo and said with a surprised face, "Could it be that we just saw the house on the cliff?" ”

"yes." "I heard that the road is just two iron chains with some wooden planks on them. ”

Mei Jiu's face turned pale when he heard this, this is a mountain sixty or seventy zhang high, and if he accidentally falls down, he will definitely be shattered!

Mei Ruyan was puzzled, "Isn't our family an imperial businessman, how can it be so weird?" ”

Mei Ruyan has inquired about Mei's news in the past two days, Mei's is an imperial businessman, and because of the curse, many descendants die early, so the family stipulates that children should practice martial arts to strengthen their health.

The Mei family started from scratch a hundred years ago, and in just over ten years, they have become one of the few giants in the Great Song Dynasty. Why are you still in your own home?

"The two of them are Fourteen Niang and Fifteen Niang, right?" A white scholar stood at the intersection and asked.

Yao Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly replied to the scholar's words, "Exactly." ”

The scholar bowed his hand, "Sir has been waiting for a long time, two ladies please come with me." ”

Yao Ye said, "Slaves and maids can't stay on the mountain, and when they get out of school in the evening, the slaves and maids will come to pick up the two ladies." ”

Mei Jiu and Mei Ruyan responded, "Okay." ”

"Please, both." The scholar was about the same age as the two, but behaved like an old pedant.

The huge yard was bare, and no trees and flowers were planted, except for a few pots of thin plums under the porch, one of which had already hit a small bud.

More than a dozen teaching houses are all carved elm doors and windows, no coloring, the grain of elm is straight and rough, the color is simple, the simple courtyard is embellished with elegance, reading aloud suddenly sounded, the whole courtyard suddenly looked bookish and elegant.

The scholar stopped in front of a school house and told them to wait at the bottom of the stairs before inviting them in.

The gentleman sat cross-legged on the seat, saw that the two were already standing at the door, knocked a few times with the ring ruler, turned his head and said to the two, "Two ladies, please come in." ”

Mei Jiu followed Mei Ruyan into the house, staring at his toes, not daring to look up.

"Are the little feet beautiful?" An Jiu asked coldly.

Mei Jiu didn't know how to respond, so she had to answer timidly, "It's not beautiful." ”

An Jiu smiled, and suddenly roared, "It's not beautiful, you can see a flower!" Give me a heads-up! ”

Mei Jiu was frightened, and even though she heard a low laugh in front of her, she raised her eyes to see that the room full of more than twenty teenagers and girls were almost all looking at her and snickering, and the emotions in that laughter were different.

Mei Jiu was surprised that there were men and women mixed here, it was really ...... It's so unorthodox!

And the reason for An Jiu's surprise was completely different, there were less than seventy people in the Mei family, and there were twenty-seven young people and girls of different ages sitting in this room, almost half of the Mei Mansion's master's level. The rest is to remove the head of the family, the five elders, the two old ladies, the aunt who has entered the family, and the concubine, there are not many young adults left in the Mei family! In other words, most of these children's parents may be gone.

The gentleman knocked on the ring ruler again, and spoke with a slight Shaanxi accent, "The two ladies will study with you in the future, you are all brothers and sisters, help each other more." ”

The gentleman didn't introduce too much, only briefly admonished a few words, and then pointed to the empty seats in the back row and said to them, "You two can sit casually." ”

"Thank you, sir."

After thanking each other, they walked along the wall to the back row and chose two seats next to each other.

Mei Jiu's seat was by the window, and when she turned her head, she could see the lush greenery of the backyard, covered by branches and leaves, not like an autumn scene, and Mei Ruyan's position was next to her.

As soon as they sat down, a scholar brought them books.

There are five books in total, namely "University", "Mencius", "Book of Rites", "Zhou Yi", and "Shangshu".

An Jiu remembered that he couldn't read the words of the ancients and couldn't write traditional characters, so he wanted to learn with Mei Jiu. Before she could open her mouth, she realized that she could already see!

Just as Umeku gained many of her abilities, this skill was also acquired by Anjiu when Umeku began reading these books.

Mei Jiu has learned this, except for "Zhou Yi", which doesn't understand accidents at all, the rest is not too difficult for her, no matter whether the solution is deep or not, at least she can memorize it throughout.

Yasuhisa doesn't have any "pie in the sky" excitement, and more and more things are forced to share between her and Meijiu, which is not something to be happy about.

An Jiu is very resistant to accepting other people's things for nothing, because all the experiences in her previous life are proving one sentence - sooner or later, she will have to pay it back!

If she had a choice, she would rather put in the effort and time to learn these things herself, and there is no reason why she can't learn these things as long as she is willing to work hard. Come to think of it, is this matter sad or happy!

After the students shook their heads and recited a passage from Mencius six or seven times, he gave them time to rest.

Mei Jiu was attracted by the scenery behind him, and was about to lean to the window, but he heard Mr. say behind him, "What books have you both read before?" ”

Mei Jiu hurriedly got up and saluted, "Sir." ”

The gentleman raised his hand, "Sit and sit, don't be formal, I don't want to toss this." ”

spoke with a little Shaanxi accent, sounding very vulgar and kind, Mei Jiu couldn't help but look up at him carefully. This gentleman was about twenty-eight or nineteen years old, very tall, with a gray-blue cloth robe and a white wash, a dark face, a neat mustache, and his already narrow eyes narrowed vigorously, very much like a fox, a black fox.

The funny appearance made Mei Jiu a little timid, "Mr. Hui, these books, except for the Book of Changes, are all involved. ”

Mei Ruyan said ashamedly, "I have only read Mencius. ”

Nowadays, the style of prostitution is prevalent, the literati use this style to rhyme, the highest prostitutes are called the head of the upper line, they must not only have a good look, but also must have cultivation, talent and learning, Mei Ruyan was raised in a brothel also has a gentleman who is responsible for teaching, but most of them are some poetry and songs, so as to please the guests in the future.

The gentleman was not surprised by the gap between the sisters, "If you don't understand anything, you can always ask me, I only have one class every five days, if you want to learn well, you can only rely on your own private efforts." ”

"One class on five days?" Mei Jiu has the impression that he should come over every day!

"You'll have other lessons." As he spoke, he leaned his face closer, reached for a wad of papers, and looked at it carefully.

Mei Jiu saw that he was almost about to stick his face on the paper, only to realize that his eyes were not very good, and reminded softly, "Sir, it's a blank paper." ”

He smiled and put down the blank paper, "You can each write a few words for me to see, well, just write a favorite word." ”

"Yes."

Mei Jiu and Mei Ruyan each took a pen and paper and wrote down a paragraph carefully.

After both of them put down their pens, Mr. put his face close to the words written by Mei Jiu, squinted his eyes and looked at it for a long time, and read, "A spring breeze and a leaf boat, a cocoon and a light hook." The flowers are full of Zhu, the wine is full of Ou, and the waves are free. ”

After reading it, he didn't comment on anything, and turned his head to look at what Mei Ruyan wrote, "Looking for spring must be early in spring, and don't wait for the flowers to be old." The ethereal jade is soft, and the face is clear. Why don't you laugh frequently, the forbidden garden returns late in spring. Drunk and idle, poems are formed with the drum. ”

"Interesting." He folded up the two pieces of paper and put them in his sleeve, got up and said, "A spring breeze and a leaf boat, you can go to worship Mr. Qingming; Looking for spring must be early in spring, you can go to Mr. Mo. Someone will take you in a moment. ”

Mei Jiu didn't understand the rules, and was about to open his mouth to ask, but saw that Mr. had already gotten up and bumped all the way to the first place.
