Chapter 044: The Value of a Concubine

Rao Xuekong's fried eggs are golden and fragrant, and the bluegrass is praised for eating. Later, when she was punished by Liu Yunwei for not eating for three days, she thought of this morning, this plate of fried eggs many times, and at that time, she sat on the steps and looked at the moon and burst into tears.

After breakfast, Lancao went to wash the dishes and clean up, Rao Xuekong stood in the yard and thought about it, returned to the room, took the four treasures of the study, and spread them on the table. She doesn't have a study here, she doesn't have a bookcase, she can only put it on a round table.

After grinding the ink, taking a brush, and spreading the paper, she took out a book of poems, flipped over a simple poem, and began to copy the poem.

Of course, she also has to collect it, the master used to praise her for her words are quite graceful, iron and silver hooks, and like a man. If she writes the original level, she will be afraid of it, after all, she also knows a little about Liu Yunwei, and everyone in Liufu knows that Miss Liu San is very popular, which is her only strength.

This poetry collection collects the top five works on the current talent list of Da Yu Dynasty, but Rao Xuekong naturally doesn't know these five talents, and none of them are poets she has heard of in modern times.

She chose a Yongliu poem, which is written briskly and plainly, but it is quite interesting.

I dried the poem and rolled it up, and the bluegrass came in with a cup of tea.

"Miss, are you writing?"

"Well, it's written, Lancao, I'm going to find the master, you can play here." Rao Xuekong has been here for more than half a month, and she is not used to the fact that Miss Gu wants to bring a maid with her from time to time, even if she doesn't bring it, she can't ask the maid to play at home, right?

Hearing her words, Lan Cao was stunned, and then shook her head and said, "Miss wants to go out, and the slave and maid naturally have to follow." ”

Rao Xuekong was helpless and said, "If you want to follow, just follow." ”

Master Liu sometimes goes out very early, and sometimes he is lazy in the house, although the business of Liufu is very big, but it does not need the biggest boss to stare at every day, there are stewards and shopkeepers below, Master Liu is still diligent, ten days but two days at home.

A few days ago, Master Liu left the mansion early, and Rao Xuekong guessed that he would stay in the mansion today. According to Lancao, when Master Liu stayed in the mansion, he had to test the knowledge of several young ladies and young masters in the morning.

In the early years, Liufu invited Mr. You, and Liu Yunwei also studied for two years, and later the eldest lady said that a woman was virtuous if she was not talented, and she was not allowed to go. But Liu Mingru continued to study for a few years, and the eldest lady said that the concubine will be a housewife in the future, and she will be a housekeeper, so she naturally has to be able to read and write.

Gee. When she heard this, Rao Xuekong sighed again at the shamelessness of the eldest lady, and sure enough, she recognized that she was the second in the world, and no one was the first.

Later, Master Liu felt that he still wanted to let the two young masters go to the academy, so that they could learn more and make some friends, so they sent the two young masters to the academy, and Liu Mingru's Zhuohua Academy invited a female master to teach her piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and taught her until half a year ago.

If it weren't for the third aunt's female popularity, she personally taught Liu Yunwei, Liu Yunwei is now only able to read and write, but her talent and calligraphy are naturally not half outstanding.

Rao Xuekong guessed that Master Liu was at home today because today was the day of the academy's rest.

If you want to test your knowledge, it is naturally in Master Liu's study.

As soon as Rao Xuekong walked near the study, he ran into Lao Shi.

Lao Shi saw Rao Xuekong, his old face was also a little red, and he didn't dare to avoid it like this, so he lowered his head and said: "I've seen the third miss, but the third miss is looking for the master?" Need a small announcement? ”

Rao Xuekong's smiling expression seemed to him to be a little stressed.

"I'll go in by myself."

Crossing the old stone, she walked to the study, and sure enough, she heard the voice of the second young master, Liu Mingqing.

"Mr. once said that Mingqing words with righteousness, teaching Mingqing, words like their people, people like their words, to be righteous and awe-inspiring, but calligraphy to be upright and not stiff, not rigid."

Master Liu smiled and said, "What Mr. said is very true. ”

Rao Xuekong looked at it, and saw Master Liu sitting behind the big bookcase, and Liu Mingqing and Liu Mingji sitting in front of him. Liu Mingru was not there.

Master Liu's entourage Shi Suo was a little far away from the academy, and when he saw Rao Xuekong, he hurriedly walked over, seeing that he was going to stop her, Rao Xuekong immediately stepped into the study.

"Father."

This clear voice made the eyes of the father and son in the room turn their eyes at the same time.

"Yunwei?" Master Liu's brows furrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "What are you doing here?" The study is not the place you can be. ”

Rao Xuekong ignored his cold face, still walked over with a smile, stood next to the bookcase, put the rice paper that he had been holding in his hand on the case, and said, "Father, Yun Wei would like to ask you to comment on the words written by Yun Wei today." ”

Master Liu was surprised: "What did you write?" ”

"Exactly."

Master Liu couldn't bear to be curious, so he spread out the paper, only to see a very neatly copied Yongliu poem appear in front of him. To his surprise, the writing was even better than Mingqing's! One stroke at a time, free to retract and release, not too hard, not too soft, its own style and bones, juan beautiful, beautiful.

"You wrote this?"

Rao Xuekong nodded: "It's exactly what Yun Wei wrote." Father, Yun Wei didn't waste her time in Ximo Courtyard, she didn't have pen, ink, paper and inkstone, so she used willow branches to practice on the sand. Last time, my father was kind and asked Yun Wei to pick up some things in the shop, so Yun Wei took the four treasures of the study and practiced for a few days before she got used to writing with a pen on paper. Father, how is the daughter written? ”

Liu Mingqing and Liu Mingji also kept staring at the poem, and Liu Mingqing's eyes were filled with resentment and annoyance.

Master Liu was really surprised. looked at the poem again, and couldn't help but praise: "It's so well written!" ”

Rao Xuekong glanced at Liu Mingqing, just as he raised his head and glared at her fiercely.

Is that jealousy? Rao Xuekong ignored him and said clearly: "Father, Yunwei has something to say to her father, can you let Mingqing and Mingji leave first?" ”

"Liu Yunwei, what are you? How dare you let my brother and me leave? Liu Mingqing gave Liu Mingji a look, and Liu Mingji immediately pointed at Rao Xuekong and shouted.

"Mingji, I'm your sister." Rao Xuekong sank his face and swept his gaze. Afraid that they would make trouble, she didn't have a chance to say her words, so she didn't pay attention to them, turned directly to Master Liu, and asked, "Father, do you know that concubines are also valuable?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned and looked at her in disbelief. Master Liu's eyes were even more angry.

Before he was about to have a seizure, Rao Xuekong took the lead and said, "Father listens to me first, and it's okay to listen, isn't it?" ”

She also tried to use the method of courting haode, using a daughter's intimacy with her father, although she received one or two results, but Master Liu actually didn't take it to heart, plus the eldest lady's pillow wind, those emotional cards, played no longer effective, then she might as well simply talk to him from the interests of him.
