Chapter 51: My Fair Lady
"Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island. My Fair Lady, Gentleman. Jagged wattles, left and right flowing. My Fair Lady, I covet it. I can't ask for it, but I can't think about it. Leisurely, tossing and turning. Jagged wattles, picked left and right. My Fair Lady, Friends of the Piano. Jagged wattle, left and right. My Fair Lady, bells and drums. ”
Zhao Huiruo, who had just caused laughter because of his distraction, was gently slapped twice by Ouyang Xiu with a ring ruler, and stood up and recited aloud the content of "Guan Ju" in the "Book of Songs".
Ouyang Xiu saw that Zhao Huiruo was clear in the process of chanting, so he nodded slightly, and then asked: "Huiruo, you just recited it is still acceptable, then tell me, what kind of girl can be called 'My Fair Lady'?" ”
In the face of Ouyang Xiu's inquiry, Zhao Huiruo, who was still standing, didn't even think about it, so she quickly turned around, pointed at Bao Qianqian, who was sitting in front of her, and replied with a serious face: "Master, in my opinion, looking at this huge study, only Bao Qianqian alone can be called a fair lady, and the other girls are just some vulgar fans!" ”
Before the half-pillar incense, the daughters of more than a dozen officials and eunuchs sitting in this study were still laughing at Zhao Huiruo, who was distracted.
However, after half a pillar of incense, the smile on their cheeks had not completely dispersed, and as soon as Zhao Huiruo's words fell, the smile on their cheeks immediately turned into anger.
Although the dozen or so young girls sitting in this study are all relatives of the emperor in Tokyo, or the daughters or granddaughters of court officials, Ouyang Xiu, as a teacher, has set a rule for them, that is, they are not allowed to inquire and discuss each other's family history in private.
If anyone breaks this rule, they will lose their qualifications to continue studying here, and these dozen or so female students are naturally for Ouyang Xiu's rule, and no one has been found to have violated it so far.
What's more, in the study room of Ouyang Xiu's mansion, the issues they discussed were more about reading, and there was almost no communication between them in private, except for Zhao Huiruo and Bao Qianqian.
may be due to the fact that the two of them have a very good relationship in private, when Zhao Huiruo praised her in front of all the girls in the study, Bao Qianqian's cheeks were not happy, but worried.
Bao Qianqian didn't want Zhao Huiruo to become the target of public criticism because of Zhao Huiruo's praise for herself, of course, she didn't want to be enemies with the other girls in the study.
No, when Zhao Huiruo caused public anger, Bao Qianqian hurriedly started a round and explained for Zhao Huiruo: "Sisters, don't be angry because of what Miss Huiruo just said. Everyone also knows that Miss Huiruo is used to talking nonsense on weekdays, so she must be talking the opposite, but in fact, she is derogating me in disguise and praising everyone! ”
After listening to Bao Qianqian's above explanations, the dozen or so girls who were all angry thought about it and felt that what Bao Qianqian said was not unreasonable, Zhao Huiruo came to the study every time he listened to the teachings of Ouyang and his son with them, and often said something bitter and mean to tease people during recess.
Obviously, the parents have clear eyebrows, Zhao Huiruo was stunned and said that people are ugly, and there are countless remarks like this, of course, it also annoys many girls who are studying together in the study.
Even if someone told Zhao Huiruo many times like Ouyang Xiu, Ouyang Xiu didn't dare to do anything to Zhao Huiruo every time, and said that as long as Zhao Huiruo didn't commit a matter of principle, she still wanted to stay here and study with everyone.
Bao Qianqian saw that the dozen or so girls who were angry before also turned to look like they didn't care, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
However, at this time, Zhao Huiruo said stubbornly: "Qianqian, you have to talk nonsense. I'm not talking back at all. You're my good friend here, how could I belittle you in front of everyone? What I just said is true, Miss Qianqian is the fair lady in my mind. ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Huiruo deliberately paused twice, stretched out his hand, pointed to the other dozen or so girls sitting in the study, and said jokingly: "However, as for you people, in my Zhao Huiruo's opinion, they are all vulgar fans who look down on you!" ”
Ouyang Xiu, who was standing on the side, didn't want to get involved in it and argue with the ladies of these dignitaries and nobles about this matter, but now, Ouyang Xiu didn't want Zhao Huiruo to have another incident, so he had to personally intervene in this matter.
"Miss Huiruo, Hugh is rude. This is a place to read, not a place for you to go wild. What you have just said is too hurtful, and you have no remorse, and I will punish you as a Master, and punish you to stand outside your study for an hour. Ouyang Xiu forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and ordered Zhao Huiruo.
As soon as Ouyang Xiu's voice fell, Zhao Huiruo, who was standing in her seat, walked out of the study without saying a word, and stood under the eaves of the corridor.
When Ouyang Xiu drove Zhao Huiruo out of the study, the anger in the hearts of the dozen or so girls who were angered was reduced by half, although in their opinion, Ouyang Xiu's punishment of letting Zhao Huiruo stand outside the study was not enough for them to relieve their hatred.
For Ouyang Xiu, if it weren't for Song Renzong's sake and Zhao Zhen's sake, and in addition, Empress Cao and Miao Guifei both admired Ouyang Xiu very much, so he didn't let Zhao Huiruo drop out of school, if he was someone else, it is estimated that Ouyang Xiu would have dropped out of school a long time ago.
What's more, Zhao Huiruo is still a habitual offender, causing trouble in the study almost every once in a while, and in most cases, it is with other female students except Bao Qianqian who have contradictions and conflicts, which makes Ouyang Xiu, as a teacher, annoyed and has to take care of it.
In this room, Zhao Huiruo and Bao Qianqian were listening to the lecture in the study room of Ouyang Xiu's house, and in the other room, Wang Hao took the piece he wrote in an hour and came to the office of Bao Zheng, the government of Kaifeng Mansion.
Wang Hao, who was standing in front of the table, didn't say much nonsense, directly took out the book of musicals, held it in front of Bao Zheng with both hands, and said straight to the point: "Bao Gong, I came here this time, and I asked you to play a piece of music, and it was written on this music, please take a look." If you think that the official writing is acceptable, you may wish to entrust Bao Gong to ask the official family to take a look at it tomorrow morning. ”
At first, Bao Zheng thought that Wang Hao came to report to him on the countermeasures to deal with the illegal buildings that encroached on the street and occupied the road, so he quickly took over the piece of music that Wang Hao was holding.
Immediately afterwards, Bao Zheng opened the piece and read it at a glance.
Wang Hao, who was standing in front of the table, found that Bao Zheng, who was looking down to read the chapter at this time, frowned for a while, was angry for a while, and smiled again.
