Chapter 83: Swimming in the Lake
No one knew what Mrs. Mu said to her son, but after An Guogong talked to his mother, he went directly back to the outer study to write to Mu Chengfang at the border.
However, Mrs. Mu's mood seemed to be good, and when the time came to read the military book in the afternoon, she instructed the maids to fill the boxes with snacks and send them to the outer study for the young masters.
And Mu Hongsheng, as always, copied books, and when he copied books, he had pine nut candy to eat, and he could also look up and see the begonia flowers in the yard, and the treatment seemed to be a little better.
In fact, Mrs. Mu said a few days ago that she would no longer punish Mu Hongsheng for continuing to copy books. But since the first two days, Mu Jinyi has also begun to go to the study every afternoon to learn military books, Mu Hongshang has nothing to do in the afternoon, even if she is idle, no one plays with her, she feels lonely, after thinking about it, it is better to continue copying books, anyway, after copying for so long, I am used to it, and I can accompany my grandmother.
Mu Hongsheng's careful thinking, of course Mrs. Mu understands, so on this day, after Mu Hongshang finished copying the book, Mrs. Mu said to her: "Hongsheng, you don't continue to copy books, if you want, follow your brother and brother to the study in the afternoon to learn military books?"
"Soldier's book?" Mu Hongshang looked a little puzzled: "Me?" But what do I do with the military book, but it's useless. ”
Mrs. Mu smiled: "I haven't seen you study seriously when the female red is useful, and it is not good to sew the two pieces of cloth together until now, and it is crooked and uneven."
As soon as she mentioned the female celebrity, Mu Hongshang suddenly became a little nervous: "Didn't grandmother say that it doesn't matter if the female celebrity is good or not?" There is also a housekeeper who feeds the housekeeper, and you can learn again before you get married. ”
"I said that," Mrs. Mu glanced at her granddaughter's weak face, and suddenly felt a little funny: "I didn't press you to learn from the girl, what are you nervous about." I see that you are bored to stay by yourself every afternoon, you don't like to learn, you don't like to learn, let you learn to play the piano and write poems like ordinary young ladies, and you don't like it either. So I thought, it's better to let you go to the outer study with your brothers to read military books, even if you accompany Jinyi, I didn't expect you to learn anything famous. ”
Mu Hongshang thought about it for a while, and felt that learning to read a soldier was much better than learning to play the piano, and she was actually happier than being bored in the back house alone, and being able to go to school with her brothers, so she nodded with a smile and agreed very happily: "Yes, I will accompany Jinyi to read the military book, and by the way, I will stare at the fifth brother and Jinyi to study hard."
Old Madam Mu also smiled. She asked Mu Hongshang to learn military books, not only so that her granddaughter could accompany her grandson to study, but also so that the boys could always accompany Mu Hongsheng.
In the blink of an eye, the children are older, and the time they can spend with each other is really getting less and less
Therefore, on the second day, Mr. Sun, who was teaching soldiers, just arrived at the outer study and found that Miss Guogong, who was not yet thirteen years old, was sitting in the outer study with the young masters, and like his younger brother, she was also holding a book of Liutao, which seemed to be ready to follow the book of soldiers.
Mu Hongsheng can come to "accompany the study", the brothers of the Mu family are very happy, Mu Lingyi and Mu Jinyi even discussed proudly, they want to write a letter to the border to show off to the three brothers, they have Hongsheng to accompany them to read the military book.
Mu Qingyi is also very happy, in order to show that he is a good and responsible brother, he treats his younger brothers and sisters equally, and he is also very concerned about Mu Hongsheng's homework. Although everyone knows that Mu Hongsheng will not be a general in the future, and it is really useless to learn the military book, Mu Qingyi just likes to worry about Mu Hongsheng's homework progress, as if this can make him very happy and satisfied.
However, Mu Hongshang really came to accompany her, so although Mu Qingyi was very strict with her, Mr. Sun's requirements for her were not so harsh, for example, Mu Hongshang wanted to go out to the lake and wanted to ask for leave and not go to class, so casually said, Mr. Sun immediately nodded and agreed, and others did not have this treatment.
Early in the morning of this day, Mu Hongshang got up early as usual and ran to Mu Jinyi's yard to knock on the door. Mu Jinyi, who got up late again, hurriedly got up, looking very surprised: "Sister, didn't you go to the lake today?"
"So you want to be lazy while I'm out?" Mu Hongsheng smiled evilly and twisted Mu Jinyi's ears: "But I caught you, right?"
Mu Jinyi, who was also not yet thirteen years old, had not yet begun to grow tall, and was a few points shorter than her sister, so she was unprepared for a while and suffered a big loss, and was lifted up by Mu Hongsheng's ears.
"It hurts, it hurts!" Mu Jinyi jumped on tiptoe: "Why don't you go to the lake, why did you come to me!"
"Do morning class." Mu Hongshang threw away his brother's ears and rubbed him by the way: "Hurry up, you can practice one more set of marksmanship if you go early." You're still making bamboo guns, and I've started to change the barrels of iron pear wood, so you're not ashamed!"
"Isn't it!" Mu Jinyi's eyes were about to roll to the back of his head: "You don't want to go to the battlefield to fight in the future, what are you doing so hard?" Even if you're going to visit the lake, you're still coming for morning class? ”
"That's why I'm so diligent because I'm staring at you." Mu Hongshang picked up her younger brother and left: "You raise your interest a little, don't waste my hard work."
"You can't keep an eye on the fifth brother?" Mu Jinyi wailed all the way: "Why are you staring at me!"
"The fifth brother is better than me," Mu Hongsheng said succinctly: "I can't beat him." And he doesn't need to be watched, and he is very diligent in his practice. ”
How early the Mu family's morning class is, just look at Mu Hongsheng. She followed her brothers to finish the morning class, went back to the room to take a bath, changed her clothes, combed her hair again, went out in a carriage without breakfast, and when she arrived at Taibai Building, she was actually earlier than Xie Shurou.
Gu Yilan arrived earlier, and she and Xie Shurou booked a private room facing the lake on the second floor of Taibai Building early in the morning. She was very careful, and specially instructed her maid Fangxin to wait at the door of Taibai Building to greet Xie Shurou and Mu Hongsheng.
As soon as Mu Hongshang got out of the carriage, Fang Xin immediately walked up quickly and saluted her respectfully: "Miss Mu, you have arrived so early."
Mu Hongshang blinked and recognized that this was Gu Yilan's personal maid, she greeted with a smile: "Hello sister." Has Sister Gu already arrived? It's early. ”
"I can't be the eldest lady sister," Fang Xin immediately smiled and gave a blessing to Mu Hongsheng: "The slave maid is called Fang Xin, and the eldest lady can call the slave maid's name directly."
"Sister Fangxin is good." Mu Hongshang smiled and asked again. At this time, the little second brother of Taibai Lou had also hurriedly come up to greet the guests, and Mu Hongsheng followed Fang Xin and the little second brother upstairs, and couldn't help but turn his head to look around curiously.
Fang Xin knew that this Miss Mu rarely went out on weekdays, so she said with a smile: "Our young lady specially booked a private room by the lake, and the scenery is very good. It's still early now, there are few people on the lakeside, and there are more people downstream, the ladies can come out for a walk, and there will be vendors on the lakeside who come out to set up stalls. ”
