Chapter 69: Summer Party
In the summer, various provinces start social activities of various projects, and by the way, promote the men and women of school age in the prefectures. Most of the people who have become relatives and engaged do not participate in such activities anymore, and they feel that it is an activity that children love to play. Only the wives of the governors of each province are happy to rush to the event one after another, exchanging information about each other's understanding.
In the Wen Mansion, Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Wen still have to participate in these activities, both of them have children of appropriate age, and they need to be ready to see the right people now. It's just that now Mrs. Wen doesn't meet every time, she took her eldest son and daughter-in-law to a party or two, and got to know relatives and friends in various provinces. She gradually began to travel selectively, according to her words: "The daughter-in-law is lenient and fair, she is at ease, and she does not have to meddle in everything." Wen Xueyi, who was in the fourth room, was also taken by the elders to appear in front of everyone in various prefectures, and Wen Xiuhua specially told his wife to take care of the third and eighth sisters.
I don't know if Wen Xiuhua was intentional or unintentional, he forgot to mention the name of his sister Wen Fuyi in front of his wife. Wen Xueyi was quite happy to travel with her at first, after all, the occasion with the participation of adults would be far better than the excitement of their occasional small gathering with friends. The people in the fourth room, every time they look at Wen Xueyi who is happily going out, they will look at Wen Chunyi's face, but they see that she is as calm as a mountain. Wen Chaoqing and Jin secretly muttered to themselves at the moment, and Jin said: "Master, Xue Duo has such an unpleasant temperament, and she must choose a lenient family for her in the future." ”
Wen Chaoqing didn't have the Jin family's worries, after all, Wen Chunyi was still young, and it was not yet time to worry about her family. He was worried about something else. Wen Chunyi has been working hard recently, and she has surpassed Wen Xiujun's progress in literacy, and she chases Wen Xiuyu every day to teach more homework. In addition, she is also obsessed with practicing calligraphy, squatting on the muddy ground on the side of the yard without anything, writing the ground with branches, and making Wen Xiujun love to write on the ground as much as she does. Wen Chaoqing likes that her children are well-read, but she has never moved her mind to train her daughter to become a talented woman.
Wen Chunyi knew that he couldn't get rich by growing vegetables and couldn't save money by planting herbs, so his mind immediately turned away. She wanted to speed up her literacy. I don't hide the truth about my fast literacy in front of my family. Wen Xueyi was instructed by the old lady. There are a lot of miscellaneous things, but he doesn't have the heart to take care of Wen Chunyi, but he can't stop Wen Xiuyu, a person who loves his younger siblings, he just needs Wen Chunyi to ask. I can't wait to take what I've learned. Teach her all of them. It was used to teach the teachings of the men. Since there is a natural difference from teaching women, he pays more attention to the practicality of the future, and teaches the vanity of the women's faces.
Wen Chunyi was amazed. regarded Wen Xiuyu's brother as a treasure even more, and quietly reminded him that he couldn't let other people know that he was teaching his younger siblings at home. Wen Xiuyu looked at her with white eyes and said, "Xueduo, you think I'm young, if you have good things, you have to show them to others." I can't let people know that my brother and sister are so smart, and they have to treasure all the good things. "Come on, it turns out that this young master treats his younger siblings as good things. There is a brother like this, Wen Chunyi is desperately absorbing new knowledge, she listened to Wen Xiuyu's instructions, if you want to learn well, you must write correctly.
The words are like their people, and when they hear the words of the spring in the last life, they exude a lazy energy when they write. She didn't expect that in this life, when she used a brush to write, she used enough strength to write, but Wen Xiuyu still disliked that the font was too weak. Diligence can make up for clumsiness, and the paper and ink in the four rooms cannot be wasted, but the mud floor at the corner of the courtyard is flat enough to be used for writing. Wen Chunyi except for taking Wen Xiujun to the backyard to take care of the vegetable patch and herbs, at other times, she squatted in the corner of the courtyard to write, and the branches were broken one after another, and the words she wrote were finally neat.
On the days of Wenfu, there are rarely big waves. The old lady Wen stayed in his study wholeheartedly, occasionally accompanied his friends to visit the mountains and rivers, and used it to teach his grandchildren when he had nothing to do. After hearing that the old lady had stopped taking care of things since the beginning of the year, she exempted everyone from asking for peace and devoted herself to the scriptures in her own courtyard. The old aunt was released and came to the fourth room to jump several times, under the pretext that she wanted to go out for her younger son. Old lady Wen later said directly to Wen Chaoqing: "Your aunt misses your sixth brother, you should send her to your sixth brother." As soon as the old lady's words came out, the old aunt settled down.
Jin smiled and said to Wen Xueyi: "When will the old aunt think about her own son?" The old people in the family said that they had never seen such a woman, so they just gave birth to a child, handed the child into the hands of their wife, and then forgot about the child they gave birth to, and pestered the man and did not let go. Fortunately, the old lady didn't care about her actions, and she never cared about your father and your sixth uncle, and never abused her. "The Jin family is a concubine, and she can feel the dark side of the inner house than Wen Xueyi. She knew that Wen Xueyi would never marry low, so she had to tell her some obscure things about the inner house from time to time.
After Wen Chunyi saw Sifang's situation in Wenfu clearly, she admired Jin's way of doing things, she was a person who knew her identity quite well, and she would never be high-profile when she was absolutely low-key. Jin's stuffy and wealthy temperament makes Wen Chunyi useful for a lifetime. Wen Chunyi is very satisfied with the current situation, she is not very old, and she still has time to learn a lot of things. She didn't have any jealousy about Wen Xueyi going out often. On such occasions, too many people with a heart choose people who are beneficial to their own family like they choose the quality of things, and their interests are more important than the happiness of their children.
Wen Chunyi is glad that Wen Xueyi is still young and has not really put it on for people to choose. Wen Chunyi felt that it was better to stay in the courtyard of the four rooms, the sky at the four corners, and if you could see it for a longer time, you could also see some flowers coming out. After Wen Xueyi went a few times, the smile on her little face gradually decreased. Jin was a little worried, and couldn't help muttering to Wen Chunyi: "Xue Duo, I see that your sister doesn't like to go to those parties anymore, I'll let her not go next time." Wen Chunyi raised his eyes and asked, "Why don't you go?" My sister is young, go more, and when she is older, don't go. ”
This is a great opportunity for outsiders to get to know Wen Xueyi, the eldest daughter of the fourth room of Wenfu, and it has nothing to do with family affairs or not. Although Wen Xueyi is young, her demeanor is elegant and free, and she is generous and decent, which is far better than the young ladies carefully cultivated by many families. Jin was silent, this daughter's temperament is too straightforward, and this is said so bluntly. Jin lost the mind to talk to Wen Chunyi, and Wen Chunyi knew that he had invisibly hit people again. Wen Chunyi felt that her nature was difficult to change, this was too right, she was a human being in two lives, and she didn't have the natural ability to recognize eyebrows and eyes.
Wen Chunyi raised his eyes to look at the Jin family, who was frowning, and could only reach out to pull Wen Xiujun and signal him to step forward to coax the Jin family to have fun. Jin saw Wen Chunyi's demeanor, her eyebrows and eyes stretched a little, this little daughter just couldn't speak. Wen Xiujun threw himself into Jin's arms and rolled twice, Jin laughed, and he quickly completed the task. Wen Chunyi rewarded him and brought him to the backyard vegetable patch, where the vegetables were newly planted, just sprouted, and the tender green layer was particularly attractive to the eye. The herb seedlings planted in the flower beds have also grown much taller, waiting for the flowers to bud in autumn.
The child's days are so carefree and happy, Wen Chunyi hopes that such days can be a little longer and longer. After the ladies and young masters of Wenfu went outside a few times, they held a summer party to welcome people from other mansions to come to the mansion to play. These days, Wen Chaoqing is often busy outside the house, sometimes busy, and has to spend the night in the courtyard outside the city. The Jin family has never had a shortage of work in her hands, but when the people of Yifu were busy welcoming guests, she had to go out of the courtyard gate and follow them to take a look at the placements in the four places, and by the way, she would do some things she could.
Wen Xueyi and Wen Xiujun were not at home, only Wen Chunyi and Wen Xiujun were in the yard, the two ran from the front yard to the backyard, and then from the backyard to the front yard, facing a piece of grass in the corner, both of them were interested in going over to pull it out. Wen Chaoqing's heart was happy to hear that spring had recovered, not like that time when he was reading books with his head bored for a while, he was worried that his daughter would become a nerd, so that after that, someone would be willing to marry such a daughter-in-law. The Jin family has always indulged a pair of children to make a fuss, and the two servant women never felt that Wen Chunyi was too old to play like this.
Sanya and Siya are not very old, and they are not the children of Wenfu, I don't know that in Wenfu, a young lady of Wen Chunyi's size is already about to start learning the rules. Wen Xueyi was such an age back then, and she was brought to teach the rules to Mrs. Wen. In the hearts of Sanya and Siya, people of Wen Chunyi's age want to run around like this, not to mention that her own young lady has never been a toss person's temperament, everything she can do by herself, she does it herself. The people in the fourth room always have an infinitely relaxed attitude towards the problem of smelling spring.
Wenfu's summer party opened lively, and the people in the four rooms all went out. Old Madam Wen didn't speak, and everyone unanimously no longer restricted Wen Chunyi from moving around the house. It's just that Wen Chunyi is obedient to himself, and he will not easily go out of the courtyard door of the fourth room to play. The more sensible she is, the more people in the other room no longer mention her eyes. On the way to the main courtyard of Wenfu, Wen Chunyi saw the old aunt again, still a middle-aged woman who was so flamboyant, dressed brightly and dazzlingly. She looked at Wen Chunyi who came over, looked at her with some disgust, and said, "Look at your little family's face, I didn't see that you look like me." ”
Wen Chaoqing and his wife went out early, Wen Xueyi and Wen Xiuyu also went out early, only Wen Chunyi and Wen Xiujun were left behind. The two sisters and brothers didn't have any friends outside the house, so they walked slowly on the road, but they ran into the old aunt who blocked the road. Wen Chunyi bowed to the old aunt and took Wen Xiujun to turn around from her side. When she heard the old aunt's words, she felt that the older she grew, the more she looked like Jin's, except for those eyes. (To be continued......)
