Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Yun Family Has a Woman Growing Up
These young ladies from big families and official families are spoiled, although they come to be literate, they are also like playing to kill time, and their upbringing is uneven, and there are students who don't know how to respect teachers and love the Tao, but Xu Yan is helpless about this situation, and many things can only turn a blind eye.
Now that the imperial court has ordered the people to open up the cultural style, some gentlemen with economic strength have rushed to open academies, and some have set up their own private schools, Yunjin City is not too big a city, and the private schools of the academies have been opened more, and the competition is naturally greater, and it is inevitable that a large part of the student resources will be lost.
In addition to the tuition fees paid by the students, a large part of the maintenance of the academy still depends on the funding and fundraising of wealthy businessmen, so these young ladies and gentlemen, he can never afford to offend, as for those old gentlemen, there are more colleges to choose from, so they are naturally arrogant.
It was only because the monthly allowance given by Baishan Academy was much higher than that of other academies that he retained a group of old men who were in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and the old gentlemen naturally couldn't afford to offend, after all, there were so many students, it was impossible for Yun Zhibai alone to afford the entire academy.
Xu Yan doesn't have any other extravagant hopes now, now he just wants this month to pass quickly, Yun Zhibai is good to come to class quickly, but in recent days, he has to take time to visit Xi Niang and the child.
When the white porridge was cooking, Yun Zhibai was out of the kitchen, and the sky was already slightly bright, and the sky in the suburbs was like this, between the vast world and the darkness and the dawn, it was most clearly visible.
As if switching in a second, Yun Zhibai walked straight to the outside of the chicken pen, took away the firewood from the fence outside, and closed the fence after entering.
Yun Zhibai stared at Da Hei with his eyes and walked over, "Don't move, obediently, obediently wait for you to eat." Yun Zhibai said softly, but his body was very agile, and he pounced on Da Hei, who was trembling in the corner.
Unexpectedly, Da Hei had already seen through his tricks, and when Yun Zhibai pounced, he immediately flew away from his side, and one person and one chicken kept turning in circles in the chicken pen, the chicken was spinning faster and faster, but Jinwen was getting more and more dizzy: "Don't run, you stop me!" The louder Yun Zhibai shouted, the faster Da Hei ran.
In the end, Da Hei didn't want to play with Jinwen anymore, so he directly spread his wings and flew out of the chicken pen, and ran out of the yard with a smoke, Yun Zhibai touched the sweat on his forehead, it was really difficult for Mr. to catch chickens!
Yun Zhibai went into the kitchen to put the white porridge on it, sprinkled some flax on it, and then put the dumplings into a bowl and put these two things in a bamboo food box.
Cover the lid tightly, it's late autumn, the cold wind is cold, you can't blow this food cold, he first took the two burning iron smokers to the door of the house, and then folded back to get the food box.
Yun Zhibai walked to the houses in the courtyard with the food box, first pricked up his ears and listened to the door, and heard his girl crying in the house, so he quickly pushed open the door and went in.
"You two wake up, Xi Niang, come and eat some morning food, I cooked you flax porridge, and I also cooked your favorite dumplings, you can eat it while it's hot."
Yun Zhibai moved a small bamboo desk made by himself to Xi Niang and put it on the bed, when he made the bamboo bed, there was a little bamboo left, thinking about making something for Xi Niang, and after thinking for a long time, he remembered that he could make a small desk.
He thought that when Xi Niang gave birth to a child, it was inconvenient to get off the shelf bed, and with a small desk, Xi Niang could sit on the shelf bed, eat and put it on the small table, and put it away when he finished eating, which was simple and convenient.
When he really made the small desk for Xi Niang to see, Xi Niang gave him a thumbs up, and he polished the edges and corners of the small desk smooth, without the slightest burr.
Yun Zhibai first put the food in front of the collapse next to the bed on the shelf, and then went out to bring in the iron smoker at the door and put it in the two corners of the house, and slowly the warm current penetrated into every corner of the house, and the room suddenly warmed up.
"Hold it to me first, look at this little girl, crying fiercely, don't be really so fierce in the future, and I have to trouble Xi Niang to take out the food herself, I was just afraid that I would accidentally knock over and burn that girl."
Yun Zhibai handed the food box in front of the bed to Xi Niang, who was sitting up, and looked at the girl who was sleeping on the bed grinning and crying with a smile.
Xi Niang picked up the crying girl and handed it to Yun Zhibai: "This girl, she was full just now, maybe she didn't want to lie in bed anymore, so she hugged her at such a young age." Xi Niang took out the food from the food box as she spoke, and put it on the small desk, the desk made by Yun Zhibai was really convenient.
When Yun Zhibai just picked up the girl, Xu is familiar voice quieted her down, the girl didn't cry anymore, when Xi Niang was pregnant with her, every night Yun Zhibai had to recite a few poems to the big belly, and then talk about Sun Tzu's Art of War.
Every time he amused Xi Niang, saying that he would recite poems for a while, write quietly, talk about Sun Tzu's Art of War for a while, and make trouble, what will happen to the child in the future, Yun Zhibai can only happily say that the child must be both civil and military.
"Oh, you little frown, like a little old man, isn't it very happy for Daddy to hold it, Daddy loves you, when you are older, I will take you out to play, where to play, go to Yunjin City, go to Baishan Academy, and then be older, take you to Chang'an City, okay."
The child, who was frowning a little brow, opened his mouth wide and made a circle, as if to say yes, and then he grinned, revealing two deep small pear vortices on the side of his small mouth.
"Xi Niang, look at the girl, you still know that she smiled, she was born for a day, and there are two such deep pear vortices at the corners of her mouth, this girl has to look like a sinking fish and a goose when she grows up, and she is smart and pleasing to look at."
Yun Zhibai hurriedly hugged the swaddling girl and showed it to Xi Niang, Xi Niang smiled at the child while drinking flax porridge: "Wen Lang, don't call the girl all day long, it's time to give her a name, you are Mr. Academy, you are knowledgeable, you are in charge of this name."
"Didn't you also follow me to Baishan Academy for three years, or the lady would like to help the child choose a nice name, let me, the teacher, test you, whether you have achieved anything in your studies, this is really a good opportunity to test whether you have a little ink in your stomach." Yun Zhibai hugged the child in his arms, raised his eyebrows towards Xi Niang, and smiled at Xi Niang.
"Zhibai, don't look at my jokes, could it be that you are also stumped by this name, so throw the pot to me." Xi Niang drank the flax porridge, picked up the spoon and ate the dumplings, "This dumplings are not soft or hard, they are extremely delicious, they know the white, and their cooking skills have grown again, but now it is late autumn, and I can't eat the cold noodles of Huaiye leaves, you know, I will take a bite of cold noodles." ”
"Thank you for the lady's compliment, Huaiye cold Tao noodles, you can only wait for Huai Xia Fujun to make it for you, Huai Xia, Midsummer, Ji Xia, I will make it for you to eat throughout the summer, but you don't need to worry, this winter is over, the spring is fast from the beginning of summer, you don't know, when I saw you love to eat this Huai Ye cold Tao noodles in Baishan Academy, when I went home, I immediately went to buy Huai seedlings, planted in the small courtyard, I don't think, you are really blessed."
Yun Zhibai remembered the past, and looked at the baby in his arms, the white horse passed through the gap, thinking that Xi Niang was still the year of the golden hairpin, and he was still the year of the dancing elephant, this blink of an eye, Xi Niang was a mother, and he was also a father.
Year after year, watching the small locust seedlings in the courtyard grow slowly, they have been built on the gray tiles of the yard house, and the whole house is shrouded in a huge locust tree.
"Zhibai, what are you thinking? It's been so long since you've thought of a name?" Seeing Yun Zhibai looking at the courtyard outside the house through the paper window, this Zhibai is a sentimental person on weekdays, Mr. Teaching, full of economy, although he has read a lot of books, he is also a person who is easy to be sad when he sees something.
"Lady, I didn't think about anything, I just sighed that time flies, the prime of life does not come back, you look at us, we are all daddy and auntie, I think when we first met, you were still a young girl, and I was still a gentleman who had just joined the church, by the way, I have already named this girl, you can help me choose one."
Yun Zhibai saw that Xi Niang's food had been used, and saw that she put the bowl and spoon into the food box, Yun Zhibai walked to the bookshelf, stood on tiptoe, took out a piece of jute paper from the top grid of the bookshelf, and handed it to Xi Niang on the bed.
Then he picked up the food box from the bed and put it on the desk in front of the bed, and the little girl in his arms fell asleep at some point in the words he and Xi Niang.
Xi Niang took the jute paper, saw that there were several names written on it, and it was even classified, she read it out gently: "Main name: Yun Jinxi, Yun Nianxi, Yun Yuexi, Yun Lianxi, Yun Xi, alternate name: Yun Yuexi, Yun Xiyue, Yun Yue, Yun Xiyue, why are the words the same behind the clouds?" It's weird! The alternate name also has the word moon in the middle, how could my husband calculate that I gave birth to a child on the next Yuan Festival?"
"Lady, what's so strange about this, or I can include the moon in the middle and back of the alternate name, these names are very meaningful, because your surname is Xi, so you have to add your surname, so that the two of us are tightly connected together in this girl, lady, you can designate one."
When he first chose his name, Yun Zhibai didn't think about it in other directions, but just thought about adding Xi Niang's surname, so he could only take so few.
"I feel the same as these names, let's call Yun Jinxi, the morning sun shines on the hibiscus, the scenery is just right, okay, quickly carry my Jinxi to the bed and sleep, you are tired after holding it for so long, Zhibai, you haven't eaten breakfast yet, hurry up and eat some and come to coax the child."
