Chapter 76: Going to school

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it was originally a happy day, but the second room of the Xia Mansion was gloomy.

"How is that possible? The flowers are all like that, Zhao Yufa still moved his hands and feet, how can he be saved? Xia Linang was puzzled. In fact, it's not just him, even Zhao Yufa can't figure it out even if he wants to break his head, it's obviously a dead end, but he was resurrected by Zhang Caishu.

According to the contract that Zhao Yufa made himself, now he not only can't get the Cloud Garden, but also has to pay the Zhao family's Magnificent Garden. What made him vomit blood even more was that he gave Zhang Caishu a chance to climb to King Jing in vain.

No one thought that that King Jing was about to go to the vicinity of Yulin, and he would come to pick up his "Dianjiang Lip" in person on a whim. Zhao Yufa loyally reported to King Jing that Zhang Caishu boasted of his outstanding ability, and made a bet with him to make the lip more beautiful than before, and in order to surprise the prince and make the prince more satisfied, he sent the flowers to Zhang Caishu's cloud garden.

Originally, King Jing was going to sit at the post station and wait for someone to send him his lips, but when he heard this, he was very interested, and he stood up and excitedly wanted to go to Yunyuan.

Zhao Yufa was both excited and worried along the way, excited that not only could he get the long-coveted Yunyuan, but also saw the Zhang family being "rectified" by the angry Jing Wangye, and at the same time, he was also a little worried that the prince would be "implicated" in his anger, after all, it was their Zhao family who applied for this errand in the first place.

When the group arrived at Yunyuan, Zhang Caishu, who received the news, led the people in Yunyuan to kneel at the gate to greet them, and the housekeeper carefully held the vibrant and charming Dianjiang lips and knelt next to Zhang Caishu.

When King Jing saw that the flowers were really better than in the south, he was overjoyed and praised repeatedly, and personally invited Zhang Caishu to participate in the flower viewing banquet held by the palace next month. even burst into childlike innocence, happily wanting to be a witness to the "gambling contract" of the Zhang family and the Zhao family.

Zhao Yufa couldn't believe his eyes, a mouthful of blood blocked his heart, and he didn't dare to spit it out. There are only four words "how is it possible" in my head, and I can't help but say it after thinking about it too much: "How is it possible?" Is this the original one? ”

Before Zhang Caishu could say anything, King Jing frowned unhappily: "How is it impossible?" The flower that this king has been raising. Can this king still recognize it? There are special marks made by the king on the pots and branches. Willing to gamble and lose, why don't big men even have this bearing? This king looks down on those who can't afford to lose. ”

Frightened, Zhao Yufa hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "No...... Not...... No tricks. ”

King Jing also ignored Zhao Yufa anymore, and enthusiastically pulled Zhang Caishu to talk about the way of raising flowers, and Zhang Caishu's mastery of camellia cultivation skills and knowledge made him sigh.

With the witness of King Jing, Zhao Yufa didn't dare to repay the debt, and he didn't dare to come to the door to ask Zhang Caishu (the gambling contract was designed by him Zhang Caishu), so he had to let Xia Linang go to negotiate and buy his own Rosewood Garden for 60,000 taels of silver.

Zhang Caishu didn't see Xia Linang, and the big housekeeper refused: "A flower, he Zhao Yufa's gambling contract will ask us to pay 30,000 taels." Now the entire Rosewood Garden is only 60,000 taels. His Zhao family looks down on his family's Rosewood so much? ”

In fact, Zhang Caishu really has no interest in the Zhao family's Magnificent Garden, his Cloud Garden is already big enough, there is no need to get another one. Cultivating camellias. The important thing is to be fine, not to be more. The last big housekeeper gave a fixed price: 100,000 taels.

Zhao Yufa spent so many years of hard work, naturally refused to give up Rosewood Garden, gritted his teeth and scraped together 100,000 taels. And because Xia Linang was not effective, his camellia shop no longer enjoyed the special benefits given by Rosewood. said that he would give him a guy who was proficient in raising flowers, and he was also treated coldly by the Zhao family.

Xia Linang put all the silver exchanged for Yu's dowry field into the camellia shop, there was no special discount, and he didn't know anything about the camellia at all, and if he continued to do it, it would be tantamount to throwing silver, and he cheekily asked Zhang Caishu for help to no avail. I had to close the shop. The loss during this period made the Yu family really cry, and the Zhou family, who was in schadenfreude, breathed a big sigh of relief, for fear that the old lady in the second room would refuse to part with it. went to the clan first to talk about the separation, and what followed was a big commotion in the Xia Mansion.

The two rooms in the Xia Mansion are fighting for silver, and in the courtyard of Shu Yao's house, Shu Jie and Zhang Caishu are also arguing over silver.

Zhang Caishu insisted on giving the Zhao family's 100,000 taels of silver tickets to the three Shujie, and he thought that Shujie had saved the Dianjiang lip. protected the cloud garden for the Zhang family, and also avoided the anger and guilt of King Jing. even let himself climb up to King Jing's Mansion, the three brothers and sisters of Shujie have brought them too many blessings to the Zhang family, where can he hide the silver ticket anymore?

But Shujie refused to accept it, he had already won thirty percent of Yunyuan's shares, and he said that he would not accept so many silver tickets.

After the last, under the mediation of Xia Ruoyun and Liu's mother, two and one were added to five, and the two families were half each.

Xia Ruoyun, who already loved Shujie and the three of them, after knowing the truth of the "dotting lips" incident, hurt the three nephews and nieces to the heart, thinking that Shujie could accept half of it, and there was enough money around him to do things. As for the other half, she and Zhang Caishu can help them save it first, and when they grow up, they will marry without silver.

In Xia Ruoyun and Zhang Caishu's hearts, the only relatives and elders of the three Shujie siblings are their aunts and uncles, and they will naturally have to think about the three of them in the future, and even Zhang Luo's family affairs.

After the fifteenth year, Shuwen was admitted to the best enlightenment school "Xianglin Kindergarten" in Yulin County, and began the school life of being picked up by the eldest brother every day. And Shu Yao also began to study in Xufu.

The gentlemen invited by Xu Fu are two female gentlemen, Lian Jushi who teaches piano and chess and Luo Niangzi who teaches calligraphy and painting, both of whom look like Liu's mother is the same age, about thirty-four or five years old.

Lian Jushi was dressed in plain clothes, with a cold temperament, revealing a touch of cold arrogance. It is said that when she was young, she was a famous talented woman in the capital, especially good at piano and chess, but she was not lucky enough to die, and before she passed the door, her fiancé was killed by mountain bandits. The lotus monk himself tied up his hair, ate fasting and recited the Buddha, was ordained as a layman, and watched the widow for his fiancé, which was passed down as a good story for a while. A few years ago, Lian Jushi's parents passed away, and she did not want to live under the fence of her brother and sister-in-law, so she returned to their ancestral home in Yulin County, and became a husband who taught her beautiful piano and chess in a large family.

I don't know why, Shu Yao could clearly feel the hostility and unkindness of this lotus monk towards her, and there was disdain and disgust in her eyes. It's really strange, in their past and present lives, they haven't seen each other, they don't know each other at all, and they haven't heard of their parents having a relationship with anyone.

Contrary to Lian Jushi, Luo Niangzi is a gentle-faced, kind woman, dressed in green clothes, with a silver hairpin inserted in a simple bun, although simple, but the bookish atmosphere from the inside out adds an elegance to him.

Luo Niangzi was born in a scholarly family, her husband who died early was a student of her father, and he was a gentleman of the Daimyo Academy before his death. Luo Niangzi is good at calligraphy and painting, especially in willow characters and landscape paintings

After the death of her husband, Luo Niangzi returned to Yulin Town with a son and a daughter, and later began to teach calligraphy and painting to Miss Boudoir with her own strengths because of the invitation of a friend.

Because her children are only in their teens, Luo Niangzi likes children very much and likes to teach. At this moment, facing the four new students, the smile on his face was kind and gentle, and he also took special care of the youngest Shu Yao: "You follow the three Xu girls to learn first, and tell me if you are tired, I will take the time to tell you alone, and I will not delay the others." I didn't despise her at all because Shu Yao was not from the Xu family and was just "borrowing" from Xu's mansion.

Xu Nian'er strongly supported Shu Yao: "Sister Yao'er is very smart, she has followed her eldest brother to learn the "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names", and "Thousand Character Text", and her sister's willow characters are also written very well, and she has to copy five big characters every day. Bing'er and Xiu'er have just learned the "Three Character Classic". ”

Xu Bing'er and Xu Xiu'er are Nian'er's cousins, the girls in the second room of the Xu family, they are nine and seven years old this year, their cheeks are slightly red when they hear Nian'er's words, and their eyes are complicated when they look at Shu Yao.

Lian Jushi glanced at Shu Yao as if he was inadvertent, so fast that people couldn't notice it, except for Shu Yao, who was particularly sensitive to his five senses because of the infiltration of the aura of the mahogany box.

Only Luo Niangzi was pleasantly surprised: "Is it?" What a good boy! It just so happens that each of you will write a word for me before you start studying. "This kid is only six or seven years old, and he has already learned three enlightenment textbooks, which is really good! Those big fawn-like pure eyes were full of wisdom when they looked at it.

Mrs. Xu, who had just walked in, also smiled: "The three brothers and sisters of this child are all smart, the parents are excellent, and the children are stronger than the other. ”

Jealousy flashed in Lian Jushi's half-drooping eyes, but he quickly restrained his emotions and bowed to Old Madam Xu with Luo Niangzi: "Yes, Old Madam is polite." ”

The two of them negotiated with Mrs. Xu that the four of them would learn calligraphy and painting with Luo Niangzi for two hours in the morning, and learn piano and chess with Lian Jushi in the morning, and there would be no classes in the afternoon, and they would practice separately, or learn other skills such as rules and etiquette, female celebrity, and cooking.

Today happens to be a single day, the day of learning calligraphy and painting, Luo Niangzi first asked the four of them to write a paragraph of the "Three Character Classic" silently, and designated a passage that is more difficult to remember, in order to check their calligraphy foundation and familiarity with the Three Character Classic.

Shu Yao has a good memory in her previous life, and she has the nourishment of aura in this life, which is simply unforgettable, but she is a guest who sent it, so in order not to steal the limelight of the main girl too much and make people unhappy, she deliberately left a small omission and wrote a word wrong.

I never thought that when the four words were placed in front of Luo Niangzi and Mrs. Xu, both of them looked at Shu Yao with appreciation, and Mrs. Xu directly ordered the big girl beside her: "Go and take the small glass mirror from Fanbang that was just sent in the capital to Miss Yao as a reward." Among the four, Yao'er is the youngest, but the words are the most beautiful, although she is wrong in one word, it is good to be able to silence this paragraph at a young age. ”

Nian'er's words are also delicate, but slightly inferior, and there is nothing wrong with Mo's writing;

Bing'er's words can only be said to be quite correct, but there are two sentences that are not written silently;

Xiu'er was the worst, only half of it was silent.
