The Eighteenth Century of Xuyang in the Red Chamber

As soon as Lin Daiyu came home, she chattered non-stop like a bird. First she talked to Xu Yang all the way, and when she got to the main room, she found Lin Ruhai and continued chattering. After dinner, everyone was together, and the meal was withdrawn and started again. Nag to Mrs. Xu how cute the girls in the school are, and how talented the gentlemen are.Aunt Meng was just about to go off to do other things, and she was stopped by Lin Daiyu to discuss with her what gifts to bring to the school girls. She really didn't think of this day today: almost all the other girls have met, only she is Fresh faces, so there is no courtesy among others, but they all gave Lin Daiyu some gadgets.But only Zheng Chunhua was the quickest to get the purse embroidered by her own hands, while others had no presents, Lin Daiyu felt really embarrassed.

Lin Ruhai was also very happy listening to it. Lin Daiyu's personality was also a headache for him. He didn't pay attention to it when he was a child. When Xu Yang sent him the book Dream of the Red Mansions, he was frightened. ...I have been afraid for the past six months. If I didn't take my daughter back immediately, wouldn't it make him feel so distressed that my daughter would become like the one in the book in a few years?

Even this is enough. A child without a mother, who lived with relatives for more than a year, is really much more sensitive. Lin Ruhai tries to spend time with her daughter every day, and even Xu Yang jumps up and down all day to make this little cousin happy, but Lin Ruhai still felt that her daughter was not lively enough.Who knew that he only went to school for one day, and he almost became a magpie when he came back!But Lin Ruhai was overjoyed.

In fact, it was Lin Ruhai who was worrying too much. Lin Daiyu is living a very good life now, her family loves her, and no one teaches her to be virtuous and calm. She is more lively than ordinary girls!Lin Ruhai was purely caring too much, for fear that she would become that sad and sickly look, so she wished her daughter could go to the house to be considered energetic.

Lin Ruhai was happy, but when she turned her head, seeing Xu Yang's embarrassing face, she said angrily, "What do you look like!"

Xu Yang hurriedly corrected his expression and said solemnly: "I admire my sister's classmates for their versatility!"

So Lin Ruhai became angry again: "Man, what are you doing eavesdropping on girls when you're fine?"

Xu Yang is wronged, my dear uncle, haven't we been sitting here all this time?I eavesdrop, so what are you?But I only dare to think about it in my heart, if I can't say it, I can only rub my chair down aggrievedly, and move slowly outside.

Unexpectedly, Aunt Meng stopped after moving halfway: "The little house that Brother Yang made for Sister Yu last time is really cute, and the whole set is too solemn, but you can ask Brother Yang to call the craftsman Greetings, just make a few small objects for people to play with: for example, the whole house does not need to be delicate and can be opened, just a few large and small ones can be placed for play; It is also very unique to be a little girl, and then wear different clothes for the four seasons and engrave the complete set as a gift... It is too late, and there is no need to just send it in a few days, and it will be the same after a few days. These small items are worthless , the victory lies in being unique and attentive, and it is very good for a little girl to give someone away."

When Xu Yang heard the name "Sister Yu", he almost spit out, okay, Sister Lin became Sister Yu directly after going to school for a day!Hearing Aunt Meng's idea again, I can't help but get more entangled. Isn't this the wooden version of Barbie?He hurriedly gave suggestions: "If you want me to say, don't carve so many people. Carve a wooden man wearing a middle coat. It's better to have movable arms and legs. Then wear a silk coat and make a few more. A small set of clothes that can be changed, and put them in a box as a gift. You can change them for yourself, and you can also make a set of needlework. The little girl must like it..." Well, Xu Yang is thinking about this item in his heart It's been a long time. When I gave Lin Daiyu a gift last time, I was thinking about Barbie. After much deliberation, I finally evolved the almost naked Barbie into a middle-shirt...

Seeing that Lin Ruhai's face became more and more unkind before he finished speaking, he must have felt that he was not doing his job properly again, so he hurriedly claimed that he wanted to study and wanted to go back to his room, scratching the ground and wanting to escape.He poked Mrs. Xu on the forehead happily: "You, you! I'm just afraid of your uncle. No matter what I say to you, you don't have a long memory. Just one look from your uncle makes you look like a rabbit!"

Lin Ruhai also didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Why did my sister say anything about him? Fortunately, Yang'er is already grown up and sensible. If you were a child, why did you get used to it? How did my sister raise me back then? Now it seems like a different person. Son……"

Mrs. Xu was even happier: "I talked about it for a long time to see me pampering Yang'er, and then I remembered what happened when I was a child. I wonder if I didn't love you that day?" Inserted a sentence: "That's right, uncle is just jealous..."

Just after she finished speaking, Lin Daiyu pushed her on her shoulder: "Go and read your book quickly! Then you say that Daddy is really going to break your leg..." After saying that, she also pursed her lips and smiled.Mrs. Xu and Aunt Meng laughed together.Xu Yang pursed his lips and said in his heart, women in ancient times really had too little entertainment, and their smiles were too low... While thinking that it is more important to escape quickly, he rushed out, middle-aged old men in feudal society should be less offended, I love holding grudges too much.

The next day Xu Yang didn't go to Chunwei Women's School to see off his younger sister, and the drivers at home were replaced by maids, but there were two male servants who still followed, but they didn't go to the intersection of the small road leading to Chunwei, so as not to be in trouble. The door ran into someone else's lady.To be honest, Xu Yang really thinks that ancient literati's thoughts are too nasty. For example, men and women sit at different seats at the age of seven. Could it be possible that 8 and 9-year-old children can have some charming thoughts and do shameful things when they are together?Obviously, the people who make the rules are imaginative, and dirty people always think in dirty places, so they want to set these unreasonable bullshit rules.Now that I think of Taoism’s words of burying Confucianism, it really makes sense. It’s because of the loss of morality that a lot of etiquette is used to pretend to be coercive all day long!Seems like that?Oh, sure enough, I'm still not hardworking enough, I can't even remember what the original text said...

While thinking wildly, I lamented that I just wanted to send my sister to school and get some fresh air, but such a small wish could not be fulfilled. Alas, since I was a child, I didn’t have a younger brother or sister. It was so easy to have a younger sister for nothing, but now I dare not go out together. Who can have any thoughts on a little girl who is not yet ten years old, it is simply a bunch of pedophiles who set the rules, and think that others are like them, bah!It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable...

To be honest, Xu Yang only dared to complain in his heart. After all, in this damn era, he must do things in line with this era. Although he thinks many things are unreasonable, at least he can't change it now.So even though he grumbled secretly and didn't follow too many rules and regulations at home because of Lin Ruhai's free and easy, but when he went out, he was honest.Sometimes I will secretly feel ruthless in my heart, mother, if I have the ability, I will definitely fucking change these bastard inhuman rules... It's a pity that this is still just complaining in my heart, thinking about it secretly.

Although he didn't have to send Sister Lin off, Xu Yang was very busy.

At the end of the first lunar month, Lin Ruhai took him to visit the head of Chongya Academy, Ji Shan.In the first lunar month, the yamen was on holiday, and Lin Ruhai happened to give Xu Yang a surprise attack on etiquette for a while, so when he went to see Chief Ji Shan, this guy was very polite, plus he had a good face and was tall, he looked really elegant pretty boy.Lin Ruhai had buried Xu Yang in front of Chief Ji Shan many times in the past. He was so naughty that he looked like a living monkey. Although he had a pure heart, he was full of barbarian habits.

In this way, Chief Ji Shan didn't have high expectations for Xu Yang, but when they met, he was frightened, and he turned out to be a dog!The handwriting is really beautiful, the memorization of the Four Books and Five Classics is fluent, and the behavior is graceful and polite. I think of the old doctor Qin gossiping with him a while ago, how benevolent and righteous this child is, how he took care of an old man who was not related to him because of his kindness, and gave that The old man sent him to his death... Originally, Xu Yang was forced to follow him for the sake of his lover's face, but now he is really willing.

Since Ji Shanchang found Xu Yang pleasing to the eye, he stopped dawdling, even though it was not yet Jingzhe, he didn't have to go to Chongya to teach, but he still asked Xu Yang to come to his house every now and then.In name, he is naturally serving the pen and ink, just a filial junior on behalf of Lin Ruhai, but Ji Shan's family members regard Xu Yang as their own, and occasionally Mr. Ji will leave a meal.In fact, Lin Ruhai was also like this in the past. He didn't become a serious disciple at the beginning, he just said that he would follow along to learn, and occasionally hang out at other people's homes.

Of course, Xu Yang should stop thinking about it, let alone saying that he is Lin Ruhai's nephew, his seniority is wrong.The point is that although Director Ji Shan thinks he is pleasing to the eye, but it is only pleasing to the eye, the little ink on this guy really doesn't look good on him.It's not a problem of poor foundation, but... To be honest, although Xu Yang is a liberal arts student, the difference between ancient literati and modern liberal arts students, compared with the difference between modern liberal arts students and science students, is Maria The difference between the Nahai Trench and the Songhua River!

Xu Yang has been a child prodigy since he was a child, but he has missed the best learning age for absorbing ancient knowledge, so he has lost the aura brought by his womb in his studies.Ji Shanchang sighed with Lin Ruhai, saying that if your nephew has been taught by a famous teacher since he was a child, how difficult would it be to be named on the gold list before standing like you?Sorry for the delay.Mr. Ji can see that Xu Yang can feel the emotion and power in the words, but when he is asked to express it in words, it always looks jerky and full of craftsmanship.Although he has a good handwriting, the articles he can write are smooth, but they always feel dry.

Ji Shanchang attributed these problems to Xu Yang's enlightenment too late.In fact, for now, it is a question of context!For example, a Frenchman, from novels in French, naturally speaks French very smoothly, and he may be able to write a good article in French.Wait until half-year-old to learn Chinese, even if he has studied it for ten years, the Chinese people will say it is quite standard, but if he is asked to translate a French novel into Chinese, the translation is not a problem, but the original flower is full of flowers. Nine out of ten articles will be translated into journals.

Words are a wonderful thing. Children who read books in ancient times read from childhood: "Sky is to earth, rain is to wind. Continent is to sky. Mountain flowers are to sea trees, red sun is to sky. Thunder is faint, mist is misty. Sunset is to sky. Medium." So even if it is a dude, anyone who has gone to school, making a drinking order casually is a joke full of flowers.But obviously Xu Yang lacks this environment, and now he learns things by rote memorization. Reiki has been used in learning to write big calligraphy and oil paintings and skipping grades when he was a child.

But even if Xu Yang knew what Ji Shanchang was thinking, he wouldn't be upset. If Lin Ruhai hadn't introduced him, who would know who Xu Yang was?One cannot be too greedy.
