Evening Shaohua in the Red House

After joking for a while, Jiang Yingxue said: "The food and drink are ready, let's take our seats."

When everyone returned to the hall, they saw that the cups and plates of fruits and vegetables had been set up. After drinking for a while, Daiyu had a very small appetite, but she just picked her favorite food at the table and ate a few mouthfuls.

After eating food and wine, suddenly it snowed outside, the cold wind howled, and the window lattices creaked, so everyone moved into the warm room.

After the banquet, Jiang Yingxue called someone over to remove the leftovers and cold roast, and reorganized the tea and fruits, but there were all kinds of new snacks, red oranges, yellow oranges, olives and other things; the poem titles, rhymes, and formats have been posted on the wall. Daiyu looked at it, but it was a five-character rhyme, chanting red plum blossoms.

On the table next to it is a bottle of beauty shrugging. Inside the bottle is a two-foot-high red plum with strong branches and winding branches dotted with flowers. Gathering five, the color is like rouge, and the fragrance deceives Lanhui.

Everyone came to enjoy it. When they saw the title of the poem, they all said: "Plum blossoms are just in time for the occasion, but the predecessors have done too much. If you don't pay attention, you will fall into the cliché. I'm afraid it won't be easy to do."

Jiang Yingxue said with a smile: "Everyone, don't be humble, just show your true skills and declare in advance that there will be no reward for winning, but you will be punished with alcohol if you lose."

Some of the girls from the general's family shook their heads and smiled when they heard the words: "Don't count us in, we're not good at composing poems, so let's just be punished honestly for a while."

Everyone who said it laughed.

Jiang Yingxue also laughed and said, "It's okay if you don't want to write poems, you can write pictures and inscriptions, if you really don't like it, you can play chess and have tea."

After finishing speaking, he ordered people to prepare two long tables, on which were placed more than a dozen sets of pens, inks, papers and inkstones, as well as painting paper, paints, chessboards, etc., for everyone to take what they needed.

The maid came in with an exquisite small incense burner carved from white jade, in which was burning a three-inch-long "Dream Sweet Fragrance" that was as thick as a lamp grass.

Jiang Yingxue said with a smile: "This incense is the limit, you must write it down before it burns out, otherwise it will be regarded as admitting defeat."

The few daughters who were preparing to compose poems quietly thought about it.

Yingchun is not good at composing poems, so after having a cup of tea, she sits aside and plays chess. Xichun also sits down in front of the desk, preparing to draw a picture of appreciating plum blossoms.

Hao Qi, the daughter of the minister of Honglu Temple, doesn't like to compose poems either, she just feels bored, when she walked to the side and saw the chessboard laid down by Yingchun, her eyes lit up immediately, she said, "Why don't we talk about a game?"

Yingchun was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, then nodded and smiled, "Of course, please, sister."

Hao Qi sat down immediately, and the two each held a piece of chess and began to play chess.

Several Wu

The daughter of Jiang's family was drinking tea and gossiping, but seeing this, she became interested and came forward to watch.

Daiyu admired the red plums in the snow outside the house for a while at the window, and felt a little cold, so she went to the brazier beside her and sat down to warm herself by the fire.

There were fresh fruit snacks on the tables next to her. Daiyu picked up a pine nut and ate them. Watching the maids cooking wine and tea, she suddenly saw a white jade plate on the table filled with yellow oranges, round and emitting a faint fragrance. Sweet and fragrant, I didn't find it interesting, so I took one and played with it in my hand.

Zijuan was having tea and gossiping with other maids brought by the daughter, waiting to be ordered, and when she saw this, she hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Girl, let me do it."

Daiyu waved her hands and smiled, "You just eat yours, it's fun to let me peel and eat."

Zicuckoo smiled and withdrew.

While talking, Tanchun also came over, drank a cup of warm wine, and said with a smile: "I only got four sentences, but sister?"

Daiyu laughed and said, "I have some clues, but I have to think about it."

Tanchun knew that she was known for his talents, so he was not worried.

Daiyu peeled the yellow orange slowly, chatting with Tanchun one after another, deliberating secretly in her heart, but the reconciliation was made after a while, but it was still early, and she did not rush to write it out. After eating the orange in one piece, seeing that there was still half a stick of incense left, Fang wiped his hands with a handkerchief, walked to the desk and left it with a wave.

Jiang Yingxue took it over and took a look, and couldn't help applauding secretly, praising: "It's fresh and refined, and it really has a unique heart."

Zhang Ying also had it, and went to the front of the case to write it out, then changed it and erased it, and handed it over to Jiang Yingxue.

Not long after, the sweet fragrance of the dream burned out, and everyone else got it too, and they wrote it out one by one.

Everyone commented on it, and they all said that Daiyu's song is the best.

Zhang Ying saw that although Daiyu was young, but her wit was the quickest, she couldn't help but love her more and more, she held her hand and smiled, "As expected of Tanhua Gong's daughter, she really has the talent to sing Xu."

Daiyu blushed a little, and said, "Sister Zhang has praised me absurdly, and Daiyu is ashamed to take it."

Jiang Yingxue said with a smile: "Sister, there is no need to be modest, this is recommended by everyone, today's leader is well deserved."

Everyone commented again, seeing that Yingchun and Hao Qi hadn't decided the winner, they all stepped forward to watch the battle.

At this time, the battle was stalemate, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner for a while, Hao Qi's face was solemn, and there was a slight sweat on his forehead, but Yingchun was still calm and calm, not at all chaotic.

Everyone watching the battle also held their breath and watched the battle intently.

After a cup of tea, Hao Qi was finally defeated by a son.

Hao Qi is proficient in piano and chess.

It's hard to meet an opponent in the past, so I can't help but feel a little arrogant, but today I am convinced of the loss, throw the chess pieces back into the chess box, and smiled at Yingchun: "My sister is very good at chess, I am willing to bow down."

Yingchun smiled softly, "It's my sister who accepted it."

Seeing Yingchun's gentleness and silence, everyone couldn't help admiring Yingchun's exquisite chess skills. Hao Qi hit it off with Yingchun even more, and pulled her to talk non-stop.

On the other side, Xichun’s picture of embracing snow and admiring plum blossoms in winter has been completed. Tanchun wrote a poem about plum blossoms by Lu Fangweng. She has practiced calligraphy for many years, and her face and body are majestic and strong, which complements the painting. Absolutely.

Since then, everyone has completely changed their views on Yingchun and the others. They are no longer looking at Jiang Yingxue's face, but making friends with each other sincerely.

There are two flowers on each table.

But it is said that Daiyu Yingchun and others went to Shoushan Bo's mansion for a banquet, and Baochai read the book at home, and came to talk to Li Wan when he had nothing to do.

When I came to Li Wan's courtyard, I saw that the upper room was quiet, and all the girls and women hid in the house to warm themselves by the fire. Only two or three little girls were there. Danju was sticking shoe uppers on the kang outside, and Baochai came in. , hurriedly got up and saluted and said with a smile: "Hello, Miss Bao."

Baochai took off the eight balls of Kesi Tianma leather cloak on her body, and said with a smile, "Why are you alone, where is your grandma?"

Danju smiled and said: "Grandma said it was cold, so there's nothing to do right now, so she asked them to go back to their room to rest. Grandma is watching Lange study inside. Miss, go to the inner room, it's warmer."

After hearing this, Baochai went inside.

The little girl opened the half-worn red silk curtain and reported, "Miss Bao is here."

Hearing the voice, Li Wan hurriedly said, "Please come in quickly."

When Baochai entered the inner room, he first saw Jia Lan sitting on the kang, doing homework at the small kang table, and Li Wan doing needlework beside him, leaning on a half-worn blue satin pillow, with a red gold flat hairpin pinned to his head. With Zuan'er loosely on her arm, a moon-white collared jacket with pinched teeth, a lake-blue flowered waistcoat, and a white silk cotton skirt, all of them old and not old, they don't look luxurious, but they feel elegant, and they can't help laughing: " Sister-in-law is very comfortable."

Li Wan gave up his seat with a smile, and said with a smile, "Why is my sister here?" As he spoke, he pulled her to sit on the kang and ordered Danju to pour tea.On the one hand, I asked Aunt Xue Ann.

Jia Lan also put down the brush in her hand, stood up and bowed to Baochai, "I met Aunt Xue."

Baochai laughed and said, "I haven't seen Brother Lan for a few days. Why didn't you go to school today?"

Jia Lan said: "Sir, I've caught a cold, let me go home and do my homework."

Baochai nodded, asked a few homework questions and stopped disturbing him,

As Li Wan spoke, he glanced at the needle and thread in Li Wan's hands, and saw that it was a royal blue satin ermine gown. From his urine and urine, he knew it was made for Jia Lan. Did you do it?"

Li Wan said with a smile: "Before I got some good leather, I wanted to make a new gown for Lan'er, so I sketched the pattern and planned to embroider a bunch of bluegrass on the front of the lapel, but it was a bit difficult, and I was not sure what color to use. The silk thread, my sister also came to help me read the details."

Hearing this, Baochai sat down on the edge of the kang, took a closer look at the gown, thought for a moment and said: "These silk threads are too bright, I think it's better to use gold and silver thread, the gown is already royal blue." That's right, it can be suppressed with gold and silver thread, and it looks brighter and more flexible, which is more suitable for Lan'er's age."

Hearing this, Li Wan picked up the silk thread for comparison, nodded and smiled and said, "That's right, my sister is thoughtful." He immediately asked someone to fetch the gold and silver thread.

Baochai helped color the color and twisted the threads. While gossiping, she suddenly saw Jia Lan frowning, seeming quite troubled. She couldn't help laughing and said, "What's wrong with Lan'er?"

Jia Lan sighed and said: "Today, Mr. assigned homework, and asked me to try to write a poem about Dongxue, with no restrictions on the meter, and an article about people's livelihood, but I couldn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time. Got a few words."

Li Wan's heart was moved when she heard the words, she knew that Baochai's knowledge was extraordinary, and she couldn't fall in love with Daiyu, so she said with a smile: "This child has been annoying for a long time, my sister might as well give him some advice."

Baochai has been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since she was a child, so this question is naturally not difficult for her, she didn't refuse immediately, and said with a smile: "Bring it here, let me have a look."

Jia Lan was overjoyed and hurriedly showed her the homework.

Baochai first carefully read the articles he wrote, pointing out the shortcomings one by one, how to delete and modify, how to choose words and sentences when composing poems, and so on.

After listening to Baochai's advice, Jia Lan gained a lot, finally got a clue, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Aunt Xue." After thinking for a while, he packed up the pen and paper, and said to Li Wan, "Mom, talk to Aunt Xue, I'll go to the study. Look up something."

After saying that, he saluted and ran out with his things in his arms.

Li Wan hurriedly ordered someone to take the cloak and follow, and he was relieved. Fortunately, Baochai was there to guide her. Although she accepted the memory of the original owner, it was not her own after all, and she couldn't fully understand it. His education is completely different from the present one. He is really not good at writing strategies and theories, let alone teaching people how to compose poetry.

This is also a headache for Li Wan recently.

I'm already six years old, and it's been fine for a couple of years. As he gets older, he can't study alone all the time. It's better for children to make more friends. Jia Lan doesn't have a father, and no matter how hard she tries, she can't replace him. After all, being better than a woman's hand is less rigid, which is really not a good thing for his future growth.

In this era, the master-student relationship is no different from that between father and son. Only when Jia Lan has a good teacher can she really get in touch with the outside world. Therefore, she wants to find a real teacher for him and teach him carefully.

If it doesn't work, you can go to a private school with a good reputation first, at least you can make more friends, and you won't be trapped in this small place, sitting on the sky.

She wanted to ask Jia's family to come forward to find out which private school in Beijing is good, but she is a daughter-in-law and cannot talk to Jia Zheng, and Jia Zheng is old-fashioned and has a good face. Lan went to study outside, otherwise, wouldn't it make outsiders ridicule that Jia's private school is not as good as other people's, so that even the serious young master of Rongguo Mansion is far away.

Mrs. Wang didn't care about these things, and she couldn't let Jia Lan talk about it. As a junior and a student, she said that the family school was not good, which would only displease Jia Zheng and cause a lot of gossip, which was not good for him.

Thinking of this, Li Wan couldn't help sighing, he really had a headache.

Baochai took a sip of tea, and seeing Li Wan frowning, she couldn't help wondering, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

Li Wan thought about it for a while, and there was nothing he couldn't say, so he shared his troubles.

Baochai was deeply touched when she heard this, nodded and sighed: "My sister-in-law is very worried. The man's family is well-educated, and it is the right way to help the country and the people. Lan'er is talented and intelligent. If there is a good teacher to teach him, his future will be limitless."

Her elder brother Xue Pan grew up in the back house and was doted on by his mother since he was a child, so he developed such an absurd temper.

He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly had an idea in his heart, raised his head and smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, why did you forget that your lord is the Imperial Academy's sacrificial wine, who knows these things better than lord Li?"

Li Wan was startled when he heard the words, and then suddenly realized, he couldn't help but patted his head, and said with a smile: "I'm so confused, I even forgot this, thank you sister for waking me up."

I can’t blame her either. Since she came to this world, she has returned to her natal family very few times. It was Li’s mother’s 45th birthday the year before last, when she went back to pay her respects. He has never met his nominal father, how could he think of this?

Baochai pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Sister-in-law is only concerned about chaos, so she didn't think of this for a while."
