The Sweet Little Fulang

Lu Gu then thought again, Shen Xuanqing is usually cautious and prudent, with so many people at home in broad daylight, he would not buy things indiscriminately.

Looking at the written words again, there were also three words, which he didn't recognize, but trying to recall, these three words seemed to be different from those three words.

At this time, Shen Xuanqing took out the book with a spoon, and said with a smile: "In the future, when the cauldron is occupied, when cooking, use the medicine stove and put this on it."

"Second brother, why do you still have a book?" Shen Yan came to look at Ma Shao and asked curiously.

"This is the Three Character Classic. Your elder brother Gu Zi said that he wants to learn to recognize characters." After hearing Shen Xuanqing's words, Lu Gu was completely relieved. .

A thin book is a weight that Lu Gu has never touched.

In the past, Shen Xuanqing had some books at home when he was studying, but after some accidents happened, they were all sold.

Standing by the side, Shen Yan saw Lu Gu open the book and came over to look at it, her eyes paused slightly on the page, remembering that her father had inquired about the academy in the town before he left, and wanted to send her to study and learn a few words At that time, she was eight or nine years old, and it was the time when she was studying the Mongolian book.

Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing studied in a private school in a neighboring village. Shen Yan couldn't go there because she was a girl's family. There was a private school for Shuang'er and a girl in Fenggu Town, and the teacher was a very knowledgeable and courageous female teacher.

"I also bought pens, inks, papers and inkstones. Anyway, it's for teaching, so you come to learn too. You won't suffer a lot if you recognize a few words." Shen Xuanqing said to Shen Yan, handed the ladle to Wei Lanxiang who came to see it, and from The four treasures of the study were taken out of the bamboo basket.

Ink and inkstone are a bit more expensive, but one inkstone is enough. He buys a lot of paper, so he must buy more if he wants to write and practice calligraphy. He bought four brushes, except Lu Gu and Shen Yanshi. Two, he can write even if he has nothing to do in winter A few words, and the remaining one is reserved as a spare.

Lu Gu has a thin brush that looks like a drawing for needlework, but he has never used paper and pen for writing. Boys sent to private schools in the countryside use paper and pen in school, but they often draw on the ground with tree branches when they return home.

As a beginner, he wanted to use the Four Treasures of the Study, so he felt uneasy, fearing that the paper and ink would be ruined if he did not write well, so he whispered, "I'd better take the branch and write on the ground first."

"No, if you want to learn how to write, just write well. If you can afford it, you don't need to worry." Shen Xuanqing said, writing on the ground with a branch is different from real pen and paper. Now that you have enough money, you don't need to be frugal on it. , besides, the paper he bought was not too expensive.

Studying is something Lu Gu doesn't understand, and he doesn't have much opinion, so naturally he listens to Shen Xuanqing in everything.

While talking, Ji Qiuyue and Shen Yaoqing came out from the backyard, and they saw the small iron pot Wei Lanxiang held in his hand at a glance, Ji Qiuyue said happily: "Mother, is this a horse spoon?"

"No, Erqing bought it back. Let's use it today." Wei Lanxiang looked at the ladle over and over again, so happy that the creases in the corners of his eyes piled up, and said: "It's time to cook, too. Go chop vegetables, Daqing, go and bring the medicine stove over here, and put it at the kitchen door for me."

She was so overjoyed that she stopped letting others cook and wanted to try it herself.

"Is this horse spoon expensive?" Ji Qiuyue saw the books and the Four Treasures of the Study here, and walked over while talking.

Salt and iron are not all expensive things, Shen Xuanqing smiled and said: "It's okay, it's a little cheaper than a big pot, and it's good to buy one for home cooking."

He didn't say the specific price, and Ji Qiuyue didn't ask, but curiously asked what she was doing with the pen and paper, as well as the inkstone and grinding stick, so complete.

"Second brother wants to teach brother Guzi how to read, and I will follow suit." Shen Yan replied bluntly.

"I'll just say it." Ji Qiuyue smiled.

At this time, Shen Yaoqing came from under the eaves carrying the medicine stove to the door of the kitchen, and said, "Why don't you follow suit, I don't have enough pens and paper to buy some."

Hearing this, Ji Qiuyue quickly waved her hands and said, "I still can't do it. I'm stupid. If I can write my own name, it's enough. Let them study hard. I still have time to make clothes in winter."

Shen Xuanqing originally wanted to say that the pen and paper were enough, but hearing what she said, she couldn't force it, and besides, she was pregnant, so she didn't dare to make her tired.

After reading the things he bought, he saw that Wei Lanxiang was washing the vegetables, and Lu Gu was not idle. He went into the kitchen to wash rice and make a fire. It was all work.

When Wei Lanxiang was cooking with a horse spoon, the whole family gathered around and looked at it. They were all iron pots, but the horse spoon was more delicate and compact than the cauldron.

After eating, the scorpion was laid out to dry in the yard, and there was nothing else to do, Shen Xuanqing moved the table out of the room, the sun was bright and warm outside, it was better than being under the house, Shen Yan and Lu Gu mentioned The three of them sat in the courtyard, the books were spread out in front of Lu Gu and Shen Yan, and they read them together.

Shen Xuanqing knew how to recite the Three Character Classic, so she didn't need to read a book, so she led the two of them to recite it line by line, and he rubbed the ink while reading.

These three-character scriptures are three-character and three-character, and they are recited so eloquently that even Ji Qiuyue, who was doing needlework in the room, came out to listen carefully, and moved a chair to sit under the eaves.

After Shen Xuanqing read "Ming Ju Yang", she went back and read it from the beginning, and only after two times did she recognize it word by word.

Lu Gu looked at the first character "人" in the book, and thought to himself that this character is a person.

After Shen Xuanqing told them how to hold the pen, he picked up the pen and wrote the word "person" on the paper. Both Lu Gu and Shen Yan watched carefully.

"You two write one." Shen Xuanqing said after finishing writing.

These words made Shen Yan nervous, not to mention Lu Gu, for fear that something might go wrong.The two of them held the pen incorrectly first, and Shen Xuanqing straightened it before the tip of the pen trembled slightly and fell.

"Don't shake." Shen Xuanqing was helpless, and then said: "Write more, and you won't shake in the future. Don't be afraid, there are no outsiders at home."

The consolation played a role. After Lu Gu finished writing, he looked at the character "人" that he had written. This was the first time he had written in a serious way. The handwriting was ugly, but he was happy in his heart. Not only could he recognize the characters, You can also write with ink on paper.

Because he was happy, he subconsciously raised his head to look at Shen Xuanqing.

Shen Xuanqing originally wanted to ask him to write two more, but suddenly changed his words, and said: "Well written, it would be better to write a few more."

The praise made Lu Gu's eyes brighter, and he became more diligent in practicing calligraphy, needless to say.

Shen Yan's subordinates were a little slower, and she didn't hesitate to praise Shen Xuanqing after she finished writing, so the two of them buried their heads in writing.

When Shen Xuanqing was in school, she was with a group of boys, now seeing that Lu Gu and Shen Yan are so well-behaved, she felt relieved.

The three of them wrote and read, and Ji Qiuyue, who was sewing clothes under the eaves, listened with her ears, and whispered a sentence or two from time to time, so that Shen Yaoqing could hear them.

He scratched his head, not sure whether his daughter-in-law wanted to learn or not, so he simply said, "If you want to learn, I will also read this, and I will teach you."

Ji Qiuyue stopped what she was doing, pursed her lips, and said with a smile: "I still can't, I'm stupid, I can't read well."

Seeing his daughter-in-law like this, Shen Yaoqing said: "Why can't you read it well or not? Left and right are just a few more words, and you don't need to test your merits. So what if you can't read well?"

"Teacher Erqing is too busy, I'll just teach you." As he said that, he was going to get a pen and paper, but Ji Qiuyue stopped him.

"Forget it now, they are reading, if I interrupt, what should they do if they are distracted?"

"Then let's go to the room. If you don't have a book, I'll write it on paper for you." Seeing that his daughter-in-law wanted to learn, Shen Yaoqing went to the kitchen to get a bowl without delay.

Hearing what they said, Shen Xuanqing picked up the inkstone and poured some ink into the bowl. There were plenty of paper and pens, so she took them casually.

Ji Qiuyue is as apprehensive about reading and writing as Lu Gu is. She has an older brother and a second sister, and the second sister has never studied. As for the eldest brother, he stopped going after two years, saying that reading makes him feel dizzy. If you feel dizzy, it is better to work and farm at home.

The word "student" is also very far away to her. Speaking of which, her parents still love her, and she has not suffered much grievance when she was a child, but when it comes to studying, her father, like most people in the village, said that girls study at home. What to do is what men do, so even if the family can afford to go to a private school in the town, she is not allowed to go.

Now Shen Yaoqing wanted to teach her, but she couldn't refuse, so she pursed her lips and smiled, put away her sewing and went into the house to learn.

There are people who read and write in the yard. Wei Lanxiang listened to the movements at home and did not stop her. Shen Shunfu told her before that she is good at studying, and that being able to read and write letters is a skill. She was going to send Shen Yan to a private school in the town.

Now it's all right, I don't even need to go to a private school, I can be taught at home.

It was unavoidable to be thirsty while reading, so she poured a bowl of clear tea for everyone with a warm teapot, and stood behind Shen Yan to watch.

She looked at it for a while, raised her head and said to Shen Xuanqing: "I see, I will read it every day in the future, and I won't be able to spare more. It should be done in an hour. At least I have read this book well, and this book is not thick."

Reading is indeed a long-term endeavor. Shen Xuanqing nodded and said, "That's good. I don't go to the mountains in winter, and I don't do much work in the fields. I read it every day, and I will read it all winter."

When Lu Gu heard that he was going to recite the whole book, he was very happy. He didn't need others to teach him in the future, he could read it by himself holding this Three Character Classic.

Because she was a beginner, Shen Xuanqing didn't let her recognize too many characters, and she couldn't eat too much. It would be good if she could write the first six characters well in the past two days.

When going to bed at night, Lu Gu lay on the bed and whispered that people are inherently good, and even drew these words in the air with their fingers.Shen Xuanqing poured the footwashing water, closed the door tightly and went to bed. After sitting up, she leaned against the head of the bed and did not immediately blow out the candles. Instead, she took out a small bottle from her arms.

"Aren't you going to sleep now?" Seeing that he was not lying down, Lu Gu turned his head and asked, seeing the small blue porcelain bottle at the same time.

Shen Xuanqing's Adam's apple moved slightly, she held the porcelain bottle tightly in her hand, and said nothing. After blowing out the lamp, she only heard a rustling sound of undressing. The night was covered, and her low voice sounded vague. Can't send out in the room.

Lu Gu didn't expect that the balm in the porcelain bottle had a completely different purpose. The coolness made him want to shrink back, but he was tightly bound around his waist.

Shen Xuanqing went to the ointment shop in the town today, and he finished reading the map of Qiankun. At the beginning, Luo Biao said that he would give this book to him without asking to borrow it. In order to prevent others from finding out, he wrapped the book in oil paper and pressed it under the bed. One piece turned around.

The picture said that there was a balsamic oil, which was more interesting to use, so he remembered that it was quite expensive, only eight yuan for a small porcelain bottle, but he still bought it.
