After listening intently for a while, Qin Yue walked to the window, pushed open the window and looked at Li Hongyu's residence next door suspiciously, if she heard it correctly, the novel music came from the courtyard next door.

Qin Yue has been playing all night since she was a child, although she didn't dare to say that she was familiar with all the musical instruments of the Ming Dynasty, she was sure that the silk string instruments of the Ming Dynasty could not play such a song with beautiful timbre and wide vocal range.

Moreover, it was the first time she had heard such a quiet and mournful repertoire, and she seemed to see the bitter love of a couple from the music.

"You go and ask what instruments are being used next door and what repertoire is playing."

Unconsciously, the music stopped, and Qin Yue, who was standing in front of the window and fell into deep thought, came back to her senses unfinished, and after muttering for a while, she commanded the maid at the door, she was very curious about the instruments and repertoire that played the tune.

"Son, let's go." Hearing this, a maid hurriedly bowed to Qin Yue and left in a hurry.

Qin Yue closed her eyes and pondered for a moment, then walked quickly to the guzheng in the room and played the music she had heard before with her memory, but unfortunately she didn't hear it too clearly, so she played it intermittently, which made her feel quite disappointed.

"Young Master, Second Miss Qin's people are here, and they want to know the music and repertoire that Young Master played just now?" When Li Hongyu was comfortably teaching Rou'er to play the violin in the room, Wang Tieniu walked in and reported in a deep voice.

"Oops!" Hearing this, Li Hongyu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and secretly said in his heart that something was wrong, he suddenly realized that he was a little careless, and he actually attracted Qin Yue's attention.

"Young Master, what's wrong?" Rou'er noticed that Li Hongyu's expression was a little wrong, so she put down the violin on her shoulder and asked.

"I was too careless, I forgot that there is Miss Qin Er living next door, this Miss Qin Er is not a good person, if she is targeted, there may be trouble." Li Hongyu smiled at Rou'er a little helplessly, after witnessing Qin Yue's performance in front of Chen Yu a few days ago, he was very jealous of Qin Yue in his heart.

"Young master, push the matter on Rou'er, and let Rou'er deal with her." Rou'er understood Li Hongyu's worries now, so she smiled and said, to be honest, she really wanted to compete with Qin Yue.

There is no other reason, Li Hongyu has been wary of Qin Yue since he saw Qin Yue in the living room of the Li family's mansion, which makes Rou'er quite unconvinced, after all, if a man is jealous of another woman in front of a woman, and he is a young and beautiful woman, it will make him jealous.

"Nope." Li Hongyu's eyes lit up when he heard this, this was a good idea, but then he thought of something and couldn't help but shake his head.

"Young master, don't worry, I will definitely be able to deal with her." Rou'er thought that Li Hongyu was worried that she would not be able to deal with Qin Yue, so she straightened her chest and said unconvinced.

"Of course I believe that Sister Rou'er can deal with Miss Qin Er, but we live too close to Miss Qin Er, and if Miss Qin Er is investigated, she will inevitably reveal flaws, so if you don't tell the truth, then Miss Qin Er will not be suspicious."

Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he saw this, and opened his mouth to comfort Rou'er, he could naturally see that Rou'er was quite unconvinced by his jealousy of Qin Yue.

To be honest, Rou'er is as smart as Qin Yue, but she is not as good as Qin Yue, that is, her heart is not as hard as Qin Yue, which will cause her to be at a disadvantage in the fight with Qin Yue.

Although if you push the matter to Rou'er, you can hide it from Qin Yue for the time being, but this is not a good way in the long run, so it is better to face the matter head-on.

After all, Rou'er is just a maid, and if she can get in touch with Xiyi's things, she will be even more suspicious if she says it.

"Young Master, if Second Miss Qin asks when you learned the carpenter's trade, how should we answer?" Rou'er felt that Li Hongyu's words were reasonable, after all, she didn't understand that the violin was easy to show her feet, and then she thought of something and couldn't help but ask with concern.

In fact, Rou'er was also very curious, she and Li Hongyu got along day and night, and never knew when Li Hongyu learned the carpenter's trade.

The reason why Rou'er wants to talk about carpenter's craftsmanship is because Li Hongyu uses carpenter's tools to make the body of the violin when making violins, so in Rou'er's opinion, it is carpenter's craftsmanship.

It is worth mentioning that the household registration of the Ming Dynasty is different from that of the previous dynasty and belongs to the hereditary system, and the most significant thing is that the household registration is divided into two categories: military households and civilian households.

The so-called military households are the people who are registered in the military governor's mansion of the five armies, and they have to serve in the army for generations, and the private households are divided into ordinary households and artisan households, such as ironsmiths, doctors, pig slaughterers, furniture, etc., such people belong to artisan households, and future generations will be engaged in this industry for the rest of their lives.

Like merchants, artisans were also a discriminated class in ancient times, belonging to the category of three religions and nine streams, which shows how low the social status is.

Therefore, not to mention the famous families in the Li family, even ordinary people look down on artisan households, so the children of no one family will learn crafts from artisan households.

Hearing Rou'er mention the words "carpenter's craft", Li Hongyu was slightly stunned at first, he didn't realize that he had caused another trouble by making a violin, and it was a tricky trouble.

If Rou'er and Wang Tieniu alone knew about this matter, it would be good to say that they were Li Hongyu's people, even if they were curious, they would not ask, but Qin Yue was different, and he would definitely investigate to the end, which made things troublesome, thinking that he was a dignified young master who did not concentrate on his studies and wasted his youth in carpenter's life, this simply doesn't make sense.

"Carpenter?" However, Li Hongyu felt that he was particularly sensitive to the four words "carpenter's craft", which made him feel a little curious in his heart, and vaguely felt as if there was something but he just couldn't remember, so he muttered to himself while pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back.

Li Hongyu believes that his subconscious will not be inexplicably interested in "carpenter" for no reason, it must be that he ignores something and can't remember it for a while.

Rou'er and Wang Tieniu looked at Li Hongyu intently, the two knew that this matter had caused Li Hongyu a headache, and Li Hongyu was thinking of a solution.

"Carpenter? Carpenter Emperor! Wei Zhongxian! After pacing back and forth in the room a few times, Li Hongyu, who was meditating, suddenly saw a light in his eyes, and suddenly remembered something in his heart, if he remembered correctly, there was a famous carpenter emperor in the Ming Dynasty, as if it was ...... didn't seem to be in charge of things, but as a result, the court was made by Wei Zhongxian, who was favored by him, which invisibly exacerbated the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Hongyu felt that he had hit the **** luck, and he inadvertently thought of such a valuable resource, if he didn't make good use of it, he would be sorry for the conscience of heaven and earth.

"Let's just say that the young master is self-taught, and he has a soft spot for carpenter's work!" Then, Li Hongyu smiled slightly, and said to Rou'er and Wang Tieniu in a deep voice, "In addition, find the best carpenter in the town for Young Master Ben, and Young Master Ben will learn from him." ”

"Apprenticeship?" Rou'er and Wang Tieniu were stunned for a moment, looking at Li Hongyu in surprise, they never expected Li Hongyu to want to learn carpenter's work, you must know that he is a dignified young master of the Li family's third room.

"Zi said: 'There must be my teacher in the threesome, choose the good ones and follow them, and the bad ones should deserve them'." Li Hongyu saw that the two of them looked like they were making a fuss, so he said with a smile, "This can not only cultivate oneself and cultivate morality, but also can be used to encourage oneself in studying, this young master is not the kind of person who is not diligent and does not distinguish between grains!" ”

"Yes, the little one is going to hire the best carpenter in town." Although Wang Tieniu didn't understand Li Hongyu's words, he knew that Li Hongyu must have his reasons for doing this, so he bowed to Li Hongyu and left quickly.

Li Hongyu's carpenter's craftsmanship can be described as half-baked to make musical instruments, if he beats furniture or other things, he can only stare dryly, so he has to find an experienced carpenter master to learn the art, so that he can better approach the future Emperor of the Apocalypse in the future, and then protect himself in the chaotic court party.

A look of surprise appeared in Rou'er's eyes, if Li Hongyu, who had only read sage books before, would definitely have no distractions, but now she wanted to learn the carpenter's trade, which made her feel incredible.

However, Li Hongyu has given Rou'er too many surprises since she experienced the accident of falling into the water, so she is still quite calm in her mood while being stunned, and she is very curious why Li Hongyu did this, is it just to deal with Qin Yue?

At dinner, the maid sent by Qin Yue to inquire about the news finally came back and told Qin Yue, who was eating, about the news 1510.

"Liang Zhu"!" Qin Yue suddenly showed a thoughtful look when she heard this, no wonder the song sounded so mournful, it turned out that she was talking about Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, and then Liu Mei frowned slightly, and whispered softly in her mouth, "Violin?" ”

Qin Yue knew Daming's musical instruments well, and it was the first time she had heard of the instrument "violin", which must have come from the outer fan, and she was very surprised that the outer fan would have an instrument that played such a beautiful sound.

"Figure out where he got that instrument." Afterwards, Qin Yuejiao instructed the maid who came to report that it was obvious that the violin, a novel instrument, had attracted her interest.

"Miss Hui, the maid has inquired, the violin was made by the young master of the Li family himself according to a Xiyi drawing, the maid asked the people in the house, the young master of the Li family did let people buy some things a few days ago, and then made the violin." Hearing this, the maid bowed to Qin Yue and replied in an orderly manner.

"He made it?" Qin Yue was stunned when she heard this, her face was full of shock, she didn't believe that a cowardly and dull person like Li Hongyu could make such a beautiful instrument just based on the drawings, you must know that this also requires deep musical skills.

"You go, tell that coward of the Li family, Miss Ben wants to see his instruments and drawings." Soon, Qin Yue came back to her senses and commanded the maid in a coquettish voice, she didn't believe that Li Hongyu dared to refuse her.
