Chapter 46: New Members
Lu Zifei returned home and saw Bi Sheng standing in the courtyard with seven or eight big and small people, three mothers-in-law, who were in their forties! There is a little boy who looks about the same as Xiaoyun, his body is very thin, but there is a cunning brilliance in his eyes, the two girls are in their teens, and the clothes are average, but they can already be seen to be beautiful billets, and the remaining two men are thirty years old, but they are a little present, the clothes are very neat, and the faces are not so haggard.
Bi Sheng said: "These eight people are innocent, these three mothers-in-law are bought for the kitchen and laundry, these two girls are maids for the son, and this little one is a scholar for the son, the tiger is sometimes too busy to let him run an errand, the remaining two are from the government, know a little bit of the account room, the housekeeper is not suitable, take your time!" ”
Lu Zifei said: "That's okay, you just look at it, if there is anything to deal with in time, I still have big things to do." ”
Bi Sheng was a little speechless, you are the head of the family, and the first time you meet the servant, say a few words! He looked at the servants and said, "This is Lu Gongzi, and he is also the master of this family, and your fate will be linked to him in the future, let the master of the family say a few words to us." ”
Lu Zifei saw that he couldn't hide, and said: "My name is Lu Zifei, that is, the so-called master of this family, I don't have too many rules, and I don't care too many rules, since you are destined to come here, then we have become a family, one is prosperous, one is lost, the first promise I make to everyone is that I will serve in the Lu family for five years, if you want to leave, I will return the deed of sale to you, provided that you do not do anything that damages the master's family." ”
One of the eight who knew a little bit of learning said, "Is this true? ”
Lu Zifei said: "It's really not true, you will definitely know in the future, the second is your share, it will be distributed as scheduled at the beginning of each month, there will be no delay, and there will be no less rewards for the New Year's holidays, now boil water, men take a bath in the front yard, women take a bath in the backyard, no bath is allowed to enter the house, after washing and changing into new clothes, start doing things, Brother Bi, you come with me first." ”
After Lu Zifei left, several women began to talk nonsense, "Do you say that the head of the family is telling the truth, this is a deed of sale!" We're gone five years later, and he's not losing all his money. "I feel like that, but the head of the family doesn't look very old" "In my opinion, the head of the house will definitely not be more than twenty years old, you two should seize the opportunity." Those who have read books still have more knowledge, and although they are now slaves, their vision is still there, and he said: "Are you not afraid that your tongue will be plucked out when you talk about the master's house like this?" The first day we came like this, what the Lord's house would think of us. ”
After Bi Sheng came in, he saw Lu Zifei frowning and asked him: "Zifei, why is this worrying, and what can stump you?" ”
Lu Zifei said: "It's really difficult for me, you know that my three years of study in the northwest have long been abandoned, today the teacher asked me to memorize the article I can't memorize, I used to have a good memory, almost can be said to be unforgettable." ”
Bi Sheng laughed when he heard Lu Zifei's words, he said: "I was the same as Zifei in front of Zhongxiucai, rote memorization, remember today and forget tomorrow, and then the teacher told me that you don't understand what he meant, no matter how much you memorize, it's useless, and then I took notes while slowly reciting it, so I found that I really remember it deeply, after two or three times, you can't forget it." ”
Lu Zifei said: "Then how do you break the sentence, or do you not stop the sentence at all, and memorize the whole article." ”
Bi Sheng asked him: "What is the sentence that Zifei said?" How I've never heard of it. ”
Lu Zifei was afraid that he would not be able to explain clearly, so he picked up the pen and wrote: "When you learn, don't you also say it?" Have friends come from afar, are you happy? People don't know, but they are not ashamed, and they are not gentlemen? After writing, I handed the paper to Bi Sheng to read, Bi Sheng was also from Xiucai, so he naturally understood what Lu Zifei wrote, but he added a few dots, and the sentence read a lot more smoothly, this principle?
Lu Zifei saw that Bi Sheng still seemed to understand or not, so he wrote it again on the paper - the people can make it impossible to know it, and then wrote below, "The people can make it; Do not know. "The people may, let it be; No, let it be known. "The people can make it, let it be; You can't make it, you know it. "The people can make it, but they can't; Make it known. "Can the people do it? No. It can be known. ”
Bi Sheng looked at this sentence and finally understood what Zifei meant, this is to standardize the words of the sage, it's not what you want to understand, it's what it is, compared with the printing technology invented by himself, it should be a mixed blessing for literati to know, right? I am glad that the words of the sages will have their specific explanations and meanings in the future, but I am worried that my understanding cannot become a kind of capital to show off.
Bi Sheng said: "Childe is talented, but I don't know how Childe released this atomic bomb." ”
Lu Zifei said: "I haven't thought about these for the time being, I just want to think about how I can memorize those tongue-twisting articles, this is a gentleman's agreement with the teacher, I can't memorize it, my lazy sleep, my happy life is all over." ”
Bi Sheng gloated and said: "Then Zifei just come on, I am optimistic about you, you can get along with this way, I feel that reciting ten articles is a piece of cake for you, I can tell Zifei that a quiet environment for reading is the best." ”
Lu Zifei had a headache holding the Analects of the Great Sage of Confucius, okay? Don't show some strength, you really think I'm a bully, he lit a candle, read word by word, sentence by sentence, Shao Yong also made reading notes in the book, Lu Zifei compared with each other, plus his own understanding, he felt that there was really no difficulty, this is called the martyr will not, it will not be difficult, it took about three hours to finally recite all ten articles, some places still do not understand, tomorrow I need to ask the teacher.
Lu Zifei was going to take a bath, and surprise the teacher tomorrow morning, just stood up and stretched, a woman came in outside the door, holding tea and some hard pastries, the woman said: "Childe has studied hard, eat something and then go to the bath and sleep?" ”
Lu Zifei then remembered that this was the maid that Bi Sheng bought back, and he was really a little unaccustomed to it, his clothes looked much more eye-catching, he was born in a small family, he was still relatively shy and restrained, Lu Zifei said: "Don't be so nervous, what's your name." ”
The woman said: "What's the name, it's Xiaolian Xiaolian on weekdays." ”
Lu Zifei said: "Then I'll give you a name, right?" It's called Banxia, okay? ”
The woman cried with joy and said, "Thank you for the name." ”
Lu Zifei said: "What is there to thank you for, I have told you, you don't need so many rules, and you don't have to kneel down if you are wrong, I am not a tyrant, there is another one with you, let him come in too, and that child." ”
After the three people came in, the two girls stood in a proper manner, the boy who was about ten years old was not afraid, looked around, Banxia also knocked the back of his head from behind, Lu Zifei smiled and said: "It's okay, let him watch it if you like it, and see if there will be no less meat." ”
Lu Zifei organized his words and said: "I have something to do in the afternoon, so I said a few words, which will call the three of you over and have something to say to you, he pointed to another girl and said, you will be called Su Mu in the future, stinky boy, what is your name." "In the past, others called him a stinky boy, and I didn't realize anything, but now he calls others, and it feels really cool.
The little boy said, "My name is Fangzi, and that's what my father called me." ”
Lu Zifei said: "Then why did you come to my house?" ”
Fang Zi said: "My father married me a stepmother, she always secretly beat me and my sister, once I took advantage of her inattention, stabbed her with a knife, but did not stab to death, my father had no choice, so he sold me, I don't want to follow his surname, and the son also named me." ”
Lu Zifei lifted his clothes, there were all kinds of injuries on his back, and Lu Zifei frowned, how could there be such a ruthless person, it was not your own, it was also your son, it was understandable that this child would make such an aggressive move at such a young age, if he didn't change his heart in time, I am afraid that his heart would be even more distorted in the future, and he put the pastries on the plate in his hands and let him eat them, Fang Zifei looked at Lu Zifei, Lu Zifei smiled at him, and the gobbling up action also showed that this child had suffered a lot.
Lu Zifei said: "Since you don't want to follow his surname, then you can follow my surname, okay?" ”
Fang Zi said vaguely: "Yes, I am willing to follow the surname of Gongzi." ”
Lu Zifei handed him a glass of water and said, "Then you will be called Lu Nanxing in the future, right?" I see you just came in and stared at those books, do you want to read? ”
Lu Nanxing nodded fiercely.
Lu Zifei said: "Then why do you want to study." ”
Lu Nanxing said: "I heard that only those who read books can be successful, and if I read books, I can let my sister come out of there and let him taste the pastries here." ”
The children of poor families are in charge of the house early! Xiaoyun is now in Bianjing, let's go crazy! I haven't had a letter for so long, and when I came back to my senses, Lu Zifei continued: "If you want to read a book in the future, just read it, don't break the book, Banxia and Su Mu are the same, you can come if you want to read it, there is one thing I want to explain to you, you can't take anything out, not a piece of paper." ”
Seeing the three of them answering in unison, Lu Zifei said to Banxia and Su Mu: "Don't send this kind of pastry at night in the future, it's not good for your health to eat it, I will teach you how to cook from tomorrow, you have to study seriously, and don't hold the bedroom tightly at night." After saying this, Lu Zifei's face turned red.
Thinking back about today's events, and then thinking about what he will do tomorrow, he probably wrote it down, he went to take a bath, and when he arrived at the bathroom, the water in the bucket was all placed, and the temperature was just right, Lu Zifei shouted in his heart that this evil feudal society is really cool!
