Chapter 6: Sloppy
"Miss, it's been three shifts... You're still sick! ”
Tao'er looked at Yun Chuxue, whose hands were red from the cold, and felt a little unbearable, but she couldn't help, she couldn't write, and she also knew that such an opportunity was too rare for Miss Six, but ......
"It's okay, I'm almost done!"
Yun Chuxue really didn't feel tired, and she wasn't aggrieved at all, not because of the big truths that her aunt wanted her to understand, but because she cherished it!
Learning to read words, how could there be such conditions before, experiencing life and death, she knows better than others what is useful and what does not have to waste time.
"Miss... Although the slave has never read a book, she has seen someone else write... You..."
"Ugly, isn't it?" Yun Chuxue didn't care, her aunt punished her more, she copied more, and she always wrote better and better, but she didn't know what was written, she followed the strokes anyway......
Tao'er cleaned up the words written in front of her and bowed her head silently, not ugly, very ugly......
Momo couldn't bear to hit her.
"Peach, are you literate?"
Tao'er hurriedly shook her head, "Miss said that she laughed, the slave maid is illiterate." ”
Yun Chuxue looked at the pen in her hand and was fascinated, and after a while, she raised her head and cheered up and sped up.
Although she still doesn't know how useful reading is, she knows that it must be of great use, so she wants to read!
Tao'er on the side looked inexplicable, why is Miss getting more and more energetic, she seems to be quite happy to be punished, isn't she sick?
In the dead of night, Yun Yinling sat in front of the brazier and read by candlelight, and the other two scriptures had already been sent over, and she also read them, one was written by herself, and the other was ghostwritten.
There is another one that has not yet been delivered.
"Big girl, it's late at night, don't wait, the old slave has inquired, Miss Six has never read, let alone write, I'm afraid..."
"Did she say she wouldn't write herself?"
Mother Li on the side shook her head, this is not true!
"Is it still lit in her room?"
"Yes..."
"Then wait!"
She hadn't read or written, but she was willing to be punished, so let's see if it was going to happen, and she couldn't help but be a little curious.
"Big girl, you don't seem to be very happy today, you don't have much to eat, but you're hungry? The old slave will get you something to eat. ”
"No need, don't be hungry, prepare some snacks for that girl, it's not too upset, it's just a little disappointed, my younger brother, mixed with officialdom, he does have some skills and is not lacking in means, but unfortunately, the vision is too short-sighted, I once told him about the backyard of the house, it seems that it was in vain, I didn't listen to it, men always feel that the scenery of this family depends on them, and women have little to do with it, how can they know that this backyard is related to the future of the whole family, and the child is not successful, how to prosper?"
Yun Yinling said that she had no intention of reading.
"Big girl, isn't it... To put it seriously, the lord still attaches great importance to the sons' reading, in our house, regardless of the sons who are born in the concubines, they have invited the husband to start classes since he was a child! As for the ladies, the house also invited female gentlemen, but there are many ladies in the house, and there will always be some unevenness, but the ladies are all going to get married..."
Mother Li felt that Yun Yinling was a little more serious.
"When they get married, they don't have the surname Yun? They have no rules outside and don't understand Dali, and those women from the big clan are willing to marry into the Yun family? Look at them..."
Yun Yinling stopped talking about this and didn't want to say more, because in her mother's heart, in the hearts of her younger brothers, the affairs of the Yun family, and her daughter's family can't interfere It doesn't have much to do with her.
"Forget it, you go and take a look, let her rest, after all, she is still sick, she is ten years old and has not yet enlightened, and it is too late for me to teach her this! Let her go back! ”
Yun Yinling rubbed her eyebrows and decided not to wait, since she was illiterate and couldn't write, she explained it earlier, what would be the use of dragging it out?
Rules are rules!
"The first snow made my aunt wait for a long time!"
Mother Li was just about to go out, and Yun Chuxue came over in the wind and snow, still holding a large stack of papers in her hand.
His hands and face were red from the cold, and the little man looked thinner in a heavy trench coat.
Yun Yinling was stunned and hurriedly let in, "It's windy outside, Mother Li is going to get a bowl of hot soup, come and sit down here to take the test." ”
Yun Chuxue walked over with her somewhat frozen legs, and carefully handed over the scriptures she had finally copied with both hands.
"Auntie, Chu Xue can't read or write... I've written, so it's slower, and it's ugly... But Chu Xue didn't drop a word and copied it all, and it was a little late to delay my aunt's rest. ”
"Okay, I'll take a look, sit down and roast the fire first, drink some hot soup later, and see how cold this hand is!"
Looking at the scripture copied in her hand, looking at Yun Chuxue, who was shivering from the cold, and her cautious but stubborn eyes, Yun Yinling's heart was touched.
This is the ugliest writing she has ever seen, no, some of them can't be called words at all, they are crooked, and some of them are written into several, but as she said, not a word of word, she copied them all.
"Miss Six, take a sip of hot soup!"
Mother Li also felt pitiful when she saw Yun Chuxue like this.
Yun Chuxue didn't answer, but knelt down solemnly towards Yun Yinling, "Auntie, can you teach Chuxue to read and write?" ”
"You kid... Get up, sit down and talk! ”
Yun Chuxue didn't insist, knowing that her aunt was not fake politeness to her, so she got up and sat down and looked at each other with a wistful face, in this world, there are really not many people she can ask for.
Yun Yinling looked at the scriptures in his hand, then at Yun Chuxue, and after a while, he sighed and put down the scriptures in his hand.
"Drink the hot soup first, and then talk about it when you're done!"
Yun Chuxue took it and drank it, and then waited a little nervously, she was really not sure, but she had nothing to lose, and she had no worries, if her aunt agreed, she could take a lot of detours, if she didn't agree, she would find a way again, but it was more difficult.
"Auntie asked you first, you didn't do anything wrong today, but my aunt punished you together, you are really not wronged, to be honest!"
Facing Yun Yinling, who had a serious face, Yun Chuxue shook her head with a slightly shy smile, and the firelight reflected on her face, making her smile look particularly conspicuous.
"Don't be wronged, my aunt punished Chu Xue because Chu Xue obviously saw her aunt and eldest sister at the door but didn't remind the second sister! Also, Chu Xue is also willing to be punished, because Chu Xue dreams of reading and writing, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, Chu Xue has always wanted to touch but can't touch it, it is a punishment for my sister, but for Chu Xue... It's a reward! ”
The unexpected answer made Yun Yinling stunned for a moment, this girl ......
is both sensible and distressing, and the most rare thing is that when she said this, there were no tears and unwillingness.
Such a good child......
"Since you know why I punished you, you knew that you shouldn't have done it at the time, why didn't you stop your second sister?"
Looking at Shangyun Yinling's slightly scrutinizing gaze, Yun Chuxue could have fooled her and said that she didn't react, but she didn't want to do this.
"Because I don't like the second sister, I deliberately didn't remind it, if it's not my aunt and eldest sister who are standing behind the second sister, but outsiders, then Chuxue may remind me, but not necessarily, because of the second sister's temper, she may not care about saying more inappropriate things as soon as I open my mouth!"
Yun Chuxue's serious answer was completely beyond the expectations of Yun Yinling and Li's mother, pure and kind... It's a bit sloppy.
