Chapter 4 The people of Wufu who were involved in dire straits (2)
In the past three years, Mrs. Wu has either been looking for her husband or on her way to find him, so that now when she hears the word "sir", her scalp goes numb, her eyes turn black, and she is so tortured.
Moreover, the young daughter looks for all kinds of gentlemen, and they have already jumped out of the rules and regulations of the back house. But every time, the young daughter explains the truth clearly.
How can a lady like us not know poetry, etiquette, calligraphy, chess, calligraphy and painting? How can we not understand morality? How can we endure high-intensity study if we are too weak? So on and so forth...
Mrs. Wu really couldn't find a reason to refuse, and Mr. Wu was very supportive. There were some gentlemen that Mrs. Wu could not reach, and Mr. Wu would personally go out to invite them, so that Mrs. Wu could occasionally breathe a sigh of relief.
When she thought that the gentleman she invited back would teach not just her youngest daughter, but all her children, Mrs. Wu felt that all her hard work had been in vain.
The couple is responsible for inviting, comforting, and sending off the husband, while the children are responsible for studying. Both sides divide the work and cooperate. What a good thing.
Especially when she saw the other children being dragged into misery by her younger daughter, Mrs. Wu felt that everything was worth it.
As a family, we just have to suffer together!
There must be real gold in the waves, and the remaining gentlemen who have been sifted through the pear blossoms all have real talents and practical knowledge, and are not just those who have gained a false reputation. They have raised the overall quality of the children of the Wu family to a higher level.
Master Wu was very pleased to see her and supported Lihua's behavior even more, so much so that later on, the teacher who taught her two sons asked Lihua to go through it.
Speaking of Wulan and Wuzhu, when they first reunited with Lihua, they saw that Lihua was in poor health and looked at her sweet and waxy face, which made her feel pity for them.
Especially when they discovered that Lihua didn't understand a lot of common sense, they felt even more distressed and followed Mrs. Wu to complain to their uncle's house.
How well can a child who doesn't even understand common sense live a normal life? (Actually, Lihua has just traveled through time and doesn't know much about ancient life yet)
It was in this mood that Wu Lan and Wu Zhu began to live with Lihua, taking care of her sister in every possible way, and teaching Lihua some common sense about daily dressing, hair and makeup.
This made Lihua feel extremely embarrassed, and seeing Mrs. Wu getting angry and having blisters at the corners of her mouth because of the hassle of inviting her husband, in line with the principle of not wasting money, she extended a small hand of friendship to the two sisters.
One day, Lihua came to look for Wulan, Wuzhu and the others, their eyes were so bright, and the bright little pear dimples hung on both sides of their cheeks:
"Eldest sister, second sister, my mother has found a good husband for me. He is very good. It will be of great benefit to us if we learn from him. Will you two sisters accompany me to learn?"
Seeing her sister's sensible and caring smile, Wu Zhu Wulan smiled, thinking that Lihua wanted someone to accompany her, so she readily agreed: "Of course, if the little sister asks, the elder sister will naturally respond, not to mention learning from Mr.
Sister is extremely happy to do this."
"Huh? Are you willing to learn anything?" Lihua asked.
"That's natural."
As soon as these few words came out, Wu Lan and Wu Zhu were on the pirate ship for three years. They were tortured to death, doubting life again and again, collapsing and picking themselves up again and again. It was not until they successfully got engaged that they were freed.
Lihua's studiousness and hard work were something Wu Lan and Wu Zhu had never seen before in their lives. No matter how cold or hot the weather was, Lihua never missed class. Even when her husband stopped class due to illness, she still never stopped. She was very good at everything she learned. When every gentleman left behind by the waves mentions Pear Blossom, he almost always looks proud, often admiring inadvertently: "It is enough to have such a great disciple in life!"
If he accidentally turned his head and saw the two of them, the teacher would stop smiling and say seriously: "You two still have many shortcomings. You need to work harder and don't relax."
After many times, Wu Zhu and Wu Lan began to doubt life. They had the same teacher, the same class, the same father and the same mother. Why were the situations completely opposite?
They often feel that they are unable to learn what they want, but their little sister is very good at it and has the ability to teach them in turn. Are they mentally retarded?
Both of them couldn't keep up with Lihua's progress even though they tried their best. Often, before they could understand the previous lesson, the next lesson started again. They were so exhausted studying every day that they couldn't even understand it. They were miserable and suffered physically and mentally.
Suffering.
Moreover, the little girl treats them very well. No matter what they find they want to learn, she never leaves them behind. She gives them a copy of every class in advance, making them cry without tears.
The youngest and weakest sisters in the family can do this. What reason do they have to slack off? They have to grit their teeth with tears in their eyes and persist. The most important thing is that their father is less busy than before after returning to Beijing, and they can't do it if they don't go... p>
These are the bitter tears of everyone in the Wu family, except Mr. Wu, of course.
Mr. Wu often tested the homework of several children in the school and found that his youngest daughter had a wide range of knowledge and unique insights into people and things. She could always draw inferences from one instance and even solved big problems for him on several occasions.
Mr. Wu was very pleased, and the mantra he often kept on his lips was: "My daughter is like my father. Having a daughter like this is a comfort to my whole life."
Just like those gentlemen!
After the praise, Mr. Wu often feels melancholy, lamenting that if his little daughter was born a boy, she would be a pillar of talent. It's a pity, it's a pity...
Every time at this time, Mr. Wu began to pick on his sons Wu Qing and Wu Che. His eyes were not eyes and their noses were not noses. He would often give them a scolding for being free and lax, ignorant and incompetent, and then he would give up after a few beatings.
.
Wu Qing and Wu Che were very aggrieved. When they were eleven years old, their twin brothers passed the examination at the same time. They were considered young talents in this dynasty. Their father was very happy at that time. After the little sister came back,
Just treat them like nothing!
The younger sister's reading of the Four Books and Five Classics is indeed better than theirs, which shatters their self-confidence. They can only study hard every day hoping to catch up, but they can't catch up, but there is no need to challenge them for a long time...<
/p>
Forget it, before little sister Zhuyu, they were just useless.
Wu Qing and Wu Che, who once tried to protest to Lord Wu, gave up later and could only accept the criticism and education from Lord Wu in shame, saying that they would work hard and work hard to live up to expectations.
When did this situation begin?
It must have been one day three years ago when Lihua came to them and asked with a smile:
"Brothers, I heard that you are currently studying "Great Learning" and "The Doctrine of the Mean". Can I study with you?" How can a lady like you not know the Four Books and Five Classics? You are right to learn more!
Seeing their younger sister who was eager to learn, she smiled brightly. Wu Qing and Wu Che laughed and agreed: "Of course, if you want to learn something, just tell us. Let's go talk to our father and husband. They
I shouldn’t refuse.”
From then on, in the eyes of Mr. Wu and Mr. Wu, the two brothers became negative examples of stupidity, free will and ineffectiveness.
Since studying with Lihua, Wu Qing and Wu Che, who were so ambitious, have been hit almost every few days, and their confidence has been shattered. Now they don't even have the courage to take the imperial examination. After all, they are worse than their own sisters.
How is it possible to pass the exam? You still have to practice again.
This is what the Wu family has been through in the past three years.
Outsiders may not know it, but only the thick-skinned Wufu people who were rolled up clearly realize how terrible it is to roll up pear blossoms!
