Chapter 006: Progress
The next day, Jin Nian was woken up by Mama Lin.
Seeing that it was already hazy outside the window, she was startled, sat up from the bed with a "whoosh", and asked urgently, "What time is it?" Why didn't Mama tell me to wake me up earlier! ”
Mama Lin smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, it's just the beginning of the day, it's still early!" ”
Good thing I didn't oversleep! Jin Nian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately cheered up and called people to fetch water in.
After being served by the cuckoo and Yingge, Jin Nian sat in front of the prismatic bronze mirror and instructed Yingge to comb her hair, "Comb a double bun and insert hairpins today." ”
Yingge was a little surprised, Miss has always liked to dress plainly, but today she wants hairpins?
She thought for a moment and then proposed: "Miss has a goose egg face, why don't you comb a hanging hair and divide it into a bun, it must be very beautiful." ”
The cuckoo on the side interjected: "Our young lady is the most beautiful, and she looks good in any bun." ”
Yingge was not convinced, and argued: "Miss finally wants to dress up, why do you talk too much!" ”
Jin Nian shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "Then it's up to Yingge to decide!" ”
It's good to comb anything, the old lady is old, and she likes to dress up pretty little girls, as long as she is not too plain so as not to attract the old lady again, she doesn't care what she combs.
Soon, a delicate and beautiful girl jumped into the bronze mirror, and the two girls couldn't help but look at it again and again.
Jin Nian put on a pink dark satin jacket again, took the schoolbag, and came to the old lady's Ronghua Hall at the end of the Mao period, accompanied by the two maids.
The old lady had already had breakfast and was sitting in the flower hall drinking tea, and when she saw Jin Nian dressed in a beautiful dress, she couldn't help but light up in her eyes, and praised the good color in her heart.
Then, as if she suddenly remembered something, she frowned and said in a deep voice: "You are going to the academy, but you don't have to come to greet me in the future." ”
Su Jintong on the side has been paying attention to the two of them, and when she heard the old lady's words at this moment, the corners of her lips hooked up a sneer.
Jin Nian was stunned on the spot!
She always knew that the old lady didn't like herself, and Rao was mentally prepared, but when she really faced it, her heart still felt like she had been poured vinegar, and it was unbearable.
After a while, she breathed a sigh of relief, fluttered her long eyelashes and blinked away the tears in her eyes, and then raised her eyes to change to a gentle smile, "My granddaughter dreamed of her father last night, and she woke up and missed it very much, so she thought that it would be good to see her grandmother." ”
The old lady was silent when she heard this, remembering that Jin Nian talked about asking for a bright jade pendant for her yesterday, she sighed and said, "Your father hasn't been back to Yangzhou for two years, and you are also a filial person, so let it be, but don't delay the time to go to school." ”
Looking at the old lady's indifferent attitude, Jin Nian sighed silently in his heart, it is not a day's work to win the old lady's love! She had no choice but to obediently respond and withdraw.
When Su Jinxiu also finished asking for peace, the two went to Xinxin Hall where the school was located together.
Mr. Xin Xintang is Mr. Ling, a talented woman in Yangzhou, who is not confused, and after she and her ex-husband left, she was alone with her only bloodline left by her upbringing brother, and made a living by teaching the young lady of the family to read.
For this female gentleman, Jin Nian is actually a little afraid in her heart, she is rigid, she wears a round bun all year round, wears a gray robe, and even when she checks and supervises students' homework on weekdays, she is also meticulous, so she especially dislikes students to cheat and play tricks.
When she saw Jin Nian in the future classroom for a long time, she glanced at it expressionlessly and said nothing.
In this Mr. Ling's heart, Jin Nian is mediocre in learning, and he is not lively on weekdays, except for knowing how to respect the teacher, there is no merit, but the fifth lady of Sufu is a material that can be made.
Classes began at two o'clock, and Mr. Ling began to check the students' homework.
"Miss Six, you can recite the standing chapter of the "Female Analects" again."
Jin Nian was a little surprised, on weekdays, Mr. doesn't like to call her name the most, today, Mr. is to check that when she doesn't come to school, is there laziness and waste homework at home?
Su Jinxiu next to her looked at her with some concern, you must know that if you can't recite it, your husband will have to play a three-handed board.
Su Jintong in the back row looked like a good show, leisurely turning the wolf pen in his hand.
Jin Nian smiled comfortingly at Su Jinxiu, looked ahead and recited, "For women, first learn the method of standing up, but only be chaste and ......."
Before the age of ten, Jin Nian didn't like to read, and she only knew to accompany her mother all day long, and if she didn't come to class for a few days, she would forget all she had learned before.
Fortunately, after she was given a marriage to Tanhualang Gu Yanyi in her previous life, her mother personally urged her to study and practice calligraphy, and she would not stop for a day, otherwise, she would be embarrassed today.
Seeing that Jin Nian recited word for word in one breath, Mr. Ling's eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded: "Tell me, what should be the explanation of this standing chapter?" ”
Do you want her to explain? Jin Nian was stunned.
She remembered that a year ago, Mr. Ling also tested her: "Threesome, there must be my teacher, what is the explanation?" ”
Eleven-year-old Jin Nian thought about it and replied seriously.
After Mr. Ling listened, his rigid face twitched a few times before he sighed: "That's it, just memorize it in the future." ”
After that, Mr. Ling only ordered her to memorize the text for a long time, and never asked her to interpret it again.
Now......
Jin Nian gathered his mind and replied seriously: "Standing up is the way to be a human being......
Mr. Ling nodded as she listened, and it wasn't until Jin Nian finished explaining that she said, "The progress is commendable." ”
Seeing that Jin Nian had won Mr.'s praise, Su Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief, Su Jintong in the back row was a little surprised, she looked at Jin Nian and muttered something in a low voice.
Next, Mr. was about to start checking the big characters, and Jin Nian neatly put the big characters he had written last night on the table.
Su Jinxiu, who was on the side, read her handwriting, and immediately asked her in a low voice with a tiger face: "It's only been ten days since I saw you, your handwriting is so good, who copied it for you?" ”
Jin Nian looked dazed: "Of course I wrote it myself!" ”
In her previous life, her mother forced her to practice 500 big characters every day to let her fall asleep, and it took nearly half a year to practice her words before she entered her mother's eyes.
At this moment, the big words on the table were deliberately ugly.
Su Jinxiu glanced at Su Jinnian's hand and muttered, "Don't worry, I have good wound medicine there." ”
After hearing Su Jinxiu's words, Jin Nian reacted, if the student is lazy to find someone to write big characters on his behalf, he will be beaten by Mr.!
She was a little stunned, sure enough, she hadn't come to the school for a long time, and she had forgotten that Mr. Ling loved to play the handboard.
Immediately, I was a little speechless, this was really what she wrote!
Mr. Ling had already noticed the movements of the two, she walked straight over and picked up the big characters written by Su Jinnian, and after reading it for a long time, she said lightly: "Write down the Analects silently and I'll check it." ”
Is this to see her handwriting to confirm whether she is looking for someone to write it for you? Jin Nian was helpless, and obediently dipped the pen in ink.
Mr. Ling stood aside to watch her put down the pen, and when he saw half of it, his stiff face began to loosen a little, and he nodded almost invisibly.
Due to his good performance in the morning, Mr. Ling paid special attention to Jin Nian in the afternoon painting class.
She sat on the edge of the desk, watching Jin Nian draw several pieces of rice paper, and finally couldn't help but walk down and point: "When drawing figures, you must use pillow wrists, so that you can trace fine facial features." ”
Although Mr. Ling still had a straight face, Jin Nian was keenly aware that her tone was no longer hard.
Thinking of the problems that had plagued her for many days, Jin Nian couldn't help but feel a burst of secret joy in her heart.
