Chapter 6: Fun Facts
For the past two days, I have been very well-behaved, and I have been quietly staying in my yard. I painted a few paintings, but I couldn't get back the original charm. I also practiced some calligraphy, but because I didn't have many years of skills, it was only to the point where I could see it.
Lu Feng has seen me a few times over the years, and I asked him for some chess advice, but playing chess is too brain-consuming, although I understand the basic rules, but I don't want to use my brain to think more, so I put it aside. On the contrary, because he came, I had time to ask him for poetry and allusions, and I also read some miscellaneous books, not to mention anything else, it is a good way to have a long insight, anyway, I know a lot of strange things, sometimes even Lu Fengnian is asked by me, and he always has to go through the book for a long time to answer my questions, so that I will learn longer.
After going back and forth, my impression of this younger brother was much better, and I didn't hold a grudge because my parents doted on him a little more.
Because his father Lu Tiege is a literati, he has extremely high requirements for reading skills, and prefers vassal elegance, and the children he teaches are also elegant characters. Needless to say, my father himself said that even Lu Fengying was a lover of the Geaean in the past, but he was ruined by my sudden amnesia.
But Lu Fengnian can still play the piano, he hasn't forgotten it.
In order to help me recover my memory, or even if I think of piano skills, Lu Fengnian is willing to teach me to stroke the piano when I am fine, but my apprentice is a little stupid, I have been teaching for a long time, and it is just a beginner, I can play two simple tunes, and it is more difficult, so I can only wait for me to practice it in the future.
On this day, Lu Fengnian came back from the academy and came to my courtyard as a routine, seeing that I was bored and pulling the strings, not at all in tune, I knew that my heart was not on the piano, so he said: "If you don't want to play, don't play, I wasted such a good piano, I asked my father for it, but he refused to give it." If you don't grow up like this, see if your father is still looking at you. β
"Father is obviously more kind to you? I sent you to the academy, let you learn this and that, and made a lot of friends, but what about me? I don't even have a friend, and I can only look at the sky above my head alone every day, and I'm bored to death. I pushed the piano away and complained.
Lu Fengnian is not as pedantic as his father and mother, and when he saw that I was bored, he asked, "Then what do you want?" My mother has strictly ordered me not to let you out, and she will not let me go until you get married, at least a few talents. But you're my sister, so as long as it's not too much of a request, I can still agree to you. β
I glanced at him, and it was still very sincere. Lu Feng is still young, he has not become so impersonal, inflexible, okay, okay, there is still a chance to correct.
I smiled a little and said, "Let's talk to me, talk about the interesting things you encountered outside, although I can't participate in person, I don't have the chance to meet, but let me listen to it, it's okay to have fun." β
Lu Fengnian thought for a moment and said with a smile: "There is really one thing, but it can't be said to be interesting." That is, I heard that the border is now in war again, and since the signing of the war exemption agreement, Nanchu and our Qi country have also implemented mutual market exchanges, but the people of the two countries are hostile to each other, and they always feel that the other party has bullied them, and there is always friction. Two days ago, because of this problem, it finally broke out, and Yunzhou, the border city of Chu, sent its own garrison army to drive all the way to the city of Zezhou. Until now, the two armies are still facing each other, and I don't know what the government officials in Zezhou think, but the army is coming, and they are still so stable, and they don't want to solve the problem as soon as possible. β
Lu Fengnian said it lightly, just as a joke. Although Ning'an County is located in a remote area, it is not far from Zezhou, if the army of Chu State fights, Zezhou is lost, and I am afraid that Ning'an County will not be protectedγγγ
In that case, will my marriage with King Ryan still be fulfilled smoothly? By the time autumn comes, the battle will probably already be fought, and I have never heard that it will be over in a month or two. Even if it is three or five months, as long as it is delayed, until the wedding date comes, the battle in Zezhou has not been finished, and there are even signs of being broken and retreated. That way, I don't have to marry him.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Fengnian saw that I was smiling weirdly, so he asked, "Sister, what are you laughing at?" Mother said, girls can't laugh like this, men don't like it! β
I suppressed my smile, still retaining a little smile at the corner of my mouth, and asked rhetorically: "Then my sister laughs so freely, do you like it or not?" Don't you like a smile from the heart, but a fake smile like a mask? β
Lu Fengnian was stopped by me, he had never thought of such a question. Women have always been required to smile without showing their teeth, and men are even more moody, even if they are very happy in their hearts, they can only show three points, and this very smile is naturally only one or two points left.
But like my sister, when I was happy, I smiled happily, and when I was unhappy, I kept a straight face, and I was cold to everyone, just like that day when my mother didn't let my sister go out, my sister turned her face and went back to the room with anger. Today is the same again, if her mother sees her, I am afraid that she will say that she is not dignified enough.
But is it important for γγγ woman to be dignified and reserved, or is it important to live happily?
Not only women, but also men should laugh when they want to laugh and cry when they want to cry? It's like when you're tired of practicing kung fu and you're beaten by your husband, can you also throw your sleeves and say loudly that I'm quitting?
"What do you think? More distracting than me? If you are like this, you will be scolded again when your father and mother see you. β
Lu Fengnian came back to his senses, his face was a little weird, and he asked, "Sister, what were you thinking just now to smile so happily?" But I said that the border is not very peaceful, shouldn't you be worried that Ning'an County will be affected, and your father will have a headache again, so busy that he can't even go home? β
I put away my joke and said with a slight tone, "Then what do you think I can do?" Is it possible to let the Yunzhou army retreat, or let the Zezhou army shock Yunzhou, and let Yunzhou know that it is invincible and retreat? Or, after the fall of Zezhou, can I sit in Ning'an County and let Ning'an County hold the city until reinforcements arrive? I can't do anything, not even if I want to do something for the sergeant of Zezhou or the defenders of Ning'an County, I can't do anything. So what do you think I should be worried about? Shouldn't I be worried, if the city is broken, where should I go? How can I save my life? I'm a weak woman, and when the time comes, where can I go? What can you do? β
"Sisterγγγ I didn't think about it that much, I was just thinking about γγγ thinking about the current situation. As for what you said, I didn't even think about it. "Lu Fengnian obviously thought that what I said could become true, and I was frightened.
