On the morning of the twenty-fifth year, the three sisters followed the old lady in two carriages and came out of the hat alley to meet the female gentleman in the east of the city in the sanxian alley.

The female gentleman's surname is Bai, he entered the palace at the age of twelve, and left the palace after the death of Concubine De at the age of thirty, and stayed in the palace for eighteen years, and did not remarry after he came out, and he is fifty years old this year. However, Qing Dai looks like a person in his forties, with a round face, hanging eyes, hair combed neatly, and a simple style of hairpin accessories, but the style and wearing position are extremely particular, and the attitude is modest when speaking, and he is not a difficult person to get along with.

This trip to Qinglian is the protagonist, Mr. Bai doesn't have any opinions, asked Qinglian a few words, I heard that she is good at poetry and let her improvise a poem, the leader commented on two sentences, but quickly agreed to Qinglian to enter the museum. Qinglian thanked her, and her face couldn't hide her joy. As for Qingdai and Qingwei, Mr. Bai looked at it twice, "I'm a little younger." ”

The old lady smiled and said, "Mr. Don't hide it, the old lady of the Marquis of Wuping Mansion and I are close friends, and the two daughters in the mansion are also friends with my granddaughter." Mrs. Wang praised Mr. a lot, and the old man also heard the name of Mr. in her, so she came to admire him. I don't want these two children to be outstanding, I just want them to increase their knowledge with Mr. ”

Listening to the old lady's words, Mr. Bai smiled very reservedly, and a faint sense of pride inadvertently flowed between his eyebrows and eyes, "Mrs. Hou praised it, the eleventh girl of Wuping Hou is also here, so the two girls from your mansion will come together." ”

At the end of August, the old lady of Shangguan took a look around the familiar mansion in the capital, and inquired that the women's school hall received all the nobles of the appropriate age to be married in various prefectures, and most of them entered the women's school after the age of twelve, studied for two or three years, and then prepared to get married, so she dispelled the idea of letting Qingwei and Qingdai enter the curator.

Later, I heard Mrs. Wang say that a professor of embroidery in the museum is extremely skilled, and she used to be the head of the embroidery room in the palace, but she will leave Beijing and return to her hometown next year. So, Mrs. Shangguan moved her mind again, went to Yongningbo's house, and pulled out Mrs. Wang in front of Mr. Bai, which allowed Qingdai and Qingwei to enter the museum smoothly.

The old lady and the female gentleman exchanged a few words, put down the gifts, and set up for the three sisters to come to class on the first day of the next month, and then got up to say goodbye.

On the first day of September, Qingdai changed her clothes and put on the schoolbag that she had made according to her requirements, and went to the second door to take the car.

When Qing Dai arrived, Qing Lian was already sitting in the car, and when she saw Qing Dai getting into the car, she glanced at her, "Why are you so rubbing, I've been waiting here for a long time?" You were late for the first day of entry, and when the time came, you made my husband angry, and it was up to my grandmother to punish you! Why are you alone, Qingwei? ”

"I didn't come with her." Qing Dai replied and sat in the corner silently.

Qinglian chattered and complained twice, and when she saw that Qingdai didn't care, she felt bored and closed her mouth.

Not long after, Qingwei came. 1 Xiao Feng personally sent Qingwei to the second door, "Second girl, third girl has arrived?" ”

Qinglian and Qingdai got out of the car, 1 Xiao Feng stopped, bowed his head and instructed Qingwei: "Listen to your husband and sisters, don't be as naughty as at home!" ”

Qingwei seemed to have listened to Xiao Feng's nagging all the way, and finally saw the carriage at this time, and hurriedly pushed Xiao Feng's to let her go back, "Mother, I'm leaving, if I don't leave, I'll be late!" This made Xiao Feng stop nagging, she quickly climbed into the carriage, and followed the two sisters to Sanxian Hutong.

The maid led the three sisters to the east courtyard where the class was held, and there were two rows of seats in the room, three of the five seats in front were empty, but there were pen and ink on them, and only the two seats in the second and third rows by the window were occupied, and Tinglan sat in the third row.

The location of the women's school is arranged according to the order of admission, and Tinglan only started classes in the women's school in June this year, so it is behind.

The maid led the three of them to their seats. Qinglian was arranged next to Tinglan, and Qingdai was behind Tinglan.

"You sit here with me, it's convenient to talk to Tinglan, and I'll sit behind the second sister."

"It's still the third sister's intimacy." Qingwei thanked Qingdai with a smile, put her things away, and whispered to Tinglan who was sitting in front of her.

"Tinglan, do you know them?" The girl sitting in front of Tinglan turned her head and glanced at Qingdai and the three of them, turned her eyes to Tinglan, and said with a smile, "I have also seen a lot of girls in various mansions in Shangjing, these three faces. ”

The girl looked about the same age as Qing Dai, seven or eight years old, gave birth to a pair of beautiful round phoenix eyes, deep eye sockets, high cheekbones, very thin chún petals, and the facial features were born well when taken out individually, but with that Chinese face, it looked a little ordinary, and when she spoke, she squinted at people, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.

"Of the three girls from the Shangguan family, the other is Sister Qinglian, the same year as Sister Zhang Shi. The back is Sister Qingdai, who is the same year as your sister. Behind me is Qingwei,

The same year as me. Tinglan introduced Qingdai and them to the girl who spoke, "This is the fifth girl of Lord Ji of Zuo Du Yushi, Ji Chun, Sister Ji. Qinglian smiled and greeted Ji Chun, "Hello Miss Ji." Ji Chun listened to Tinglan's introduction, lost interest, didn't even bother to give one with a smile, glanced at Qingdai and the three of them expressionlessly, and then said to Tinglan: "You talk!" He turned around and went back to reading to himself.

The corners of Qinglian's mouth stiffened, and she glanced at Ji Chun and turned her head to look away. Qingwei glared at Ji Chun and whispered, "Uneducated." Qing Dai didn't have a good impression of Ji Chun at first sight, and she was even more disdainful when she saw her dog-eyed and low-looking appearance at this time.

Tinglan was so embarrassed that she smiled at Qingdai and the others, "The three sisters in front haven't arrived yet." Originally, my sister, Sister Zhou, and the two sisters of the Zhao family left the library after the marriage decree was given by the women's school. Now the first row is sitting in the seventh girl and the ninth girl, the two sisters of the Xu family are in the same year, and they will be in time next year, and they will leave the museum after reading this fall. In front of Sister Qinglian are the ten girls from the Fuping Hou Zhang Mansion, who are usually the most quiet and don't talk to people much. The three of them sat for a while, and the three girls in front of their heads came in. Ji Chun got up and greeted the three people with a smile, and the three of them took a look at Ji Chun and found that there were more people in the room today.

One of the tall and beautiful girls looked at Qinglian who was sitting on it, "Hey, this sister, why do I look at you very familiarly, where have we met?" ”

"Miss Xu Qi, I had a relationship with my sister in the Zhou Bachelor's Mansion last time on Qixi Festival." "Oh, I remember, you're the second girl of Lord Shangguan's family! Danniang praised you for your good writing, I didn't expect you to come to the women's school, Mr. Bai likes poetry and writing when he has nothing to do on weekdays, you can ask her for more advice. Miss Xu Qi is not as snobbish as Ji Chun, she knew that Qinglian and Zhou Danniang were friends, but she knew in her heart that she was a concubine, so she only said a few words casually, and said hello to Qingdai and Qingwei, and pulled her sister to sit down.

Ji Chun saw that Miss Xu Qi and Qinglian had met, and couldn't help but look at her twice. Qinglian didn't know what Miss Xu Qi was thinking, she just wanted someone to give herself face, and then when she saw Ji Chun's gaze, she pulled her horn and turned her head to stop paying attention to Ji Chun.

As for the Zhang Shi girl from the Fuping Hou family, she didn't say a word since she came in, as if she didn't like to socialize with people, nodded lightly at Qingdai and the three of them, and sat down in her seat by herself.

After another moment, Mr. Bai came, naturally introducing the three sisters of Shangguan Mansion to everyone first, and then arranging a class. Classes start at the beginning of each month, a total of 15 days in January, only half a day of classes are taught every day, and the rest of the time is left to complete the homework at home, and the next month's class is completed. The fifth day is the reading course of scripture and history, poetry, "Female Rules", "Women's Training" and other reading courses, the fifth day is the etiquette and music class, and the fifth day is the female red embroidery class.

Since Qingdai and the others came for the first day, Mr. Bai arranged a history class, and he didn't talk about it in depth, but only talked about some superficial things. The main reason for this course is that most of the families who come here to learn the nobles who marry in the future will not be small families, and the worst can also marry a person from a high background, and understanding some basic scriptures and history is still beneficial for the future.

Since Qing Dai opened Méng, she has not been able to get books from Wang Tao, and she has also dabbled in scripture and history.

Qingdai listened and found that Mr. Bai's explanation seemed superficial, but it was very interesting. It's not like those sour lectures at all, she will always tell Shi Shi's simple words in a storytelling method, but it makes Qing Dai have a deeper understanding of what she originally read, and she admires this female gentleman from a female official more and more in her heart.

Qinglian has always been good at writing, but she doesn't like the scriptures and history very much, mainly because the scriptures and history are not as elegant as poetry, so she lacks interest in listening. Qingwei fought with her eyelids, and she was drowsy when she heard it, if it weren't for Qingdai taking a ring ruler and poking her under the table, I am afraid that she would have fallen asleep on the table long ago.

After the morning class, the three sisters of the Shangguan family counted Qingdai in good spirits.

Qingwei sat in the car and yawned, complaining that Qingdai didn't allow her to doze off.

Qinglian glanced at Qingwei angrily, "No one cares about you at home, but when you leave the house and arrive at the school, it represents the face of the Shangguan Mansion." If you really fall asleep, you are not the only one who is embarrassed, where will I and your third sister put our faces, and let people laugh at our family. In that case, you might as well leave the museum as soon as possible, and don't embarrass your father and grandmother. Qinglian said it in one breath, Qingwei couldn't hold it on her face, and after thinking about it, she felt that it was a bit rude to sleep in class on the first day, and she was embarrassed to refute Qinglian, so she lowered her head and bit the chún petal and sulked.

Although Qinglian said a little heavily, she was not wrong.

Qingdai looked at Qingwei, only thinking that the child was still young and had to be taught slowly, so the lesson might not have a good effect, so she said softly: "Fourth sister, third sister says this about you, it is also for your good." You also saw it today, the girl in that pavilion is either the princess's mansion or the daughter of the court official's family. A sample-level official like my father is not small in the local area, but when he arrives in the capital, he grabs a lot of them. Ji Chun treats us like that, it's better because my father's grade is not high. Do you want to make Ji Chun look down on him even more in the future? ”

When it comes to Ji Chun, Qingwei looks unpleasant at the first time. Thinking of the palace huā that the queen rewarded when she entered the palace during the break, she laughed at her ignorant look, and Qingwei was angry. Also, later in class, Ji Chun answered Mr.'s question correctly, and when he was praised by Mr., his arrogant and raised his eyebrows to show off was very hateful.

Qingwei had a deep grudge against Ji Chun, and secretly slandered her all morning.

Hearing Qingdai mention Ji Chun, she immediately ignited the fighting spirit in Qingwei's heart, "That guy who squints at people with his nostrils up and thinks he is a great beauty, I won't let her look down on it!" ”

Qing Dai smiled, "Yes, so we can't let her look down on us, we should do better, and do better than her, so that we can win glory on the faces of my father and grandmother." ”

Qingwei nodded, "Well, I will also study hard from tomorrow, and I can't let that Ji Da face look down on me."

"Ji Da face?" Qingdai listened to Qingwei's nickname for Ji Chun, and rubbed her head with a smile, "It's also appropriate." You put this bit of thought into reading, and Zhun Bao is much better than her. ”

Qingwei blinked, "Really?" ”

"Our fourth sister is so smart, there must be no problem." Qingdai nodded, and Qingwei smiled.

Qinglian sat on the side and watched Qingdai persuade Qingwei, Qingwei didn't complain at all, but was high-spirited, and suddenly she still knew too little about this silent third sister on weekdays. @。
