"Sir, this page is finished. What do you think?" Lu Wu's voice came, interrupting Lin Jue's thoughts.
Lin Jue smiled and stood up and stood next to the table. He saw the beautiful handwriting on the yellow paper neat and clean. What he learned today was the thirty-second to forty-eight words of the Thousand-Character Classic. It is "The clouds make rain, and the condensation turns into frost.
Gold comes from Lishui, jade comes from Kungang." These sixteen words.
"It's well written. It's a pity that Lu Wu doesn't study." Lin Jue praised.
Lu Wu couldn't help but be happy to be praised by the young master. She pointed at the words and asked, "What do these sixteen words mean?"
Lin Jue smiled and said: "I don't need to explain the meaning of clouds causing rain and dew turning into frost. It means that clouds gather into rain and dew condenses into frost. The meaning of "gold is born in Lishui" means that golden sand comes out of the land of Lishui.
, so it means gold is born from Lishui. Lishui is also called Jinsha River, which is far in the southwest. Jade comes from Kungang, which means that Kunlun Mountain is good at producing beautiful jade. Kunlun jade is very precious, you should understand this."
Lu Wu nodded and said: "I understand, it's really interesting. No wonder the young master likes to read, it turns out that you can know so many things."
Lin Jue smiled bitterly and said: "If you study for the imperial examination, it would not be so interesting. Look at your virtuous cousin, who has been studying for decades and failed in every imperial examination. Studying is a disgusting thing for him.
.But for you, you just need to be able to read and write and not be illiterate, so it's not as stressful as him."
Lu Wu thought for a while and sighed: "It's so pitiful. Sometimes I think you are quite pitiful as men."
Lin Jueshi smiled and said: "You feel pity for men, how do you want us men to deal with ourselves?"
Lu Wu yawned and said, "I'll write it again. Are you tired, sir? If you are, I won't write it anymore."
Lin Jue said: "You just write. But if you write again, you have to write better than before. Look at the words you just wrote. Although the word "Teng" is written well, the left and right centers of gravity are unstable, light on the left and heavy on the right.
It gives people the feeling that they are about to fall down at any time. This is the problem of uneven writing skeleton."
Lu Wu stared at the words on the paper and said, "Yes, I also feel something is wrong. When the young master said this, I suddenly understood."
Lu Wu picked up the pen and wrote the word "Teng" again. He tilted his head and looked at it, stretched out his pen and scribbled it out, and said angrily: "It still has to fall." So he wrote it again, but it was uneven again, scrawled it out again, and pursed it.
His mouth was a little angry.
Lin Jue stretched out his arms to wrap around her small body, held her hand and said, "I'll teach you once."
Lu Wu's face was hot, and her heart was beating wildly. She felt Lin Jue's hot breath blowing on her ears. She didn't have the slightest idea in her hands, and let Lin Jue write a straight and well-proportioned poem one stroke at a time.
The word Teng.
"How is it? It's getting better now, just practice more." Lin Jue said.
Suddenly Lin Jue felt something was wrong with the little man in his arms. When he turned around to look, he saw Lu Wu looking at him affectionately with a red face. Her red lips were just a few inches in front of her eyes, and she exhaled.
Like orchid and sweet, it is sultry.
Lin Jue hugged Lu Wu, stretched out his mouth and kissed her. Lu Wu whimpered and squirmed endlessly. Lin Jue left her small mouth and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Lu Wu blushed and pointed at the window and said: "Close... close the window. I'm afraid Xiaohu can see it in his room."
Lin Jue laughed, reached out and closed the long window, turned around, hugged the soft body and pressed it on Liangtan, hooking out the fragrant tongue to taste it. He kissed Lu Wu until her whole body was soft and her face turned red.
When she was shocked, she forced herself to put away her desire and let go of this little beauty. Lu Wu got up and ran away with her messy hair.
Lin Jue took a few sips of herbal tea and thought to himself: If this goes on, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it anymore. Should I deal with this young lolita?
…
Early the next morning, while Lin Jue was still asleep, he heard the laughter of Lin Hu and Lu Wu coming from the yard. Lin Jue got up and yawned, opened the window and looked outside, and saw Lin Hu in the yard.
He was shouting "moo" in his mouth. Lu Wu was covering his mouth and laughing.
Seeing Lin Jue sticking his head out, Lu Wu apologized hurriedly: "Oh, I woke up the young master."
Lin Jue pointed to the two horns on Lin Hu's head and asked, "What are you doing? Where did this thing come from?"
Lu Wu was surprised and said: "Double Seventh Festival. Have you forgotten, sir? Congratulations to the Cowherd on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. Xiaohu is doing this for the Cowherd."
Lin Jue suddenly realized that the Double Seventh Festival in the Zhou Dynasty was a festival, in fact, it was the Chinese Valentine's Day. There are many customs on the Chinese Valentine's Day. For example, Lin Hu wearing a hat with two wooden horns is one of the Double Seventh Festival customs.
Of course there are some other little customs.
"Master, wash up and have breakfast. After a while, you will take out the books in the room to dry them. In the morning, other people in the courtyard also invited me to worship the Weaver Girl. I can't be late." Lu Wu said with a smile.
Lin Jue nodded in agreement, hurriedly washed his face and went to the corridor. After the three of them had breakfast, they went to Lin Jue's room and moved out several large shelves of books, and spread them out one by one on the bluestone on the corridor to expose them to the sun.
.Lvwu then put out a lot of winter clothes and put them all on benches to dry. Most of the small yard was occupied by books and clothes. Suning books and clothes on Chinese Valentine's Day was also one of the customs of the Zhou Dynasty, which was called book exposure.
Exposed clothes.
After finishing their work, Lu Wu came out with her sewing box in her arms and said to Lin Jue: "Sir, I'm going to worship the Weaver Girl in the courtyard of the main house."
Lin Jue said with a smile: "Go ahead and compete with them. Teach them that Green Dance's needlework skills are unmatched."
Lu Wu pursed her lips and smiled, then ran away quickly holding her sewing box.
The so-called worshiping of the Weaver Girl is also one of the customs of the Chinese Valentine's Day. The Chinese Valentine's Day was originally called the Qiao Qiao Festival. It was originally a festival for women to pray to the Nine-Day Weaver Girl for their skillful knitting skills. It was only later that later generations gradually evolved and added, including love, marriage, childbirth, etc.
Meaning: The Weaver Girl Worshiping Meeting is when women gather together and put up small incense tables to worship the Weaver Girl. After that, they thread needles with colored threads and make hollow flower buttons to compare with each other to see who can get the true biography of the Weaver Girl through begging. It is a half-worship.
A semi-playful activity.
Naturally, Lu Wu went to participate in an event where Lin Fu's maids gathered together. Naturally, the old woman and young lady in the main house and a group of old and young concubines were unwilling to join the maids in worshiping the Weaver Girl. The Lin family did not have many activities.
This is one of the few events where maids and maids can gather together.
Lin felt that he had nothing to do. He was sorting out books in the yard and reading at the same time. Although he had read many of the books, he had not taken them out for a long time. He read a few paragraphs in the sunshine and breeze, which made him have some aftertaste.
Lin Hu was doing nothing and was still chopping firewood. Since Lin Hu came to the small courtyard, the firewood in the small courtyard has been piled up all over the wall.
Until noon, Lu Wu had not returned yet. Lin Jue's eyes were a little blurred, and he was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed to rest. Suddenly he heard someone coming in at the door of the courtyard. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was a servant of the Lin family.
"Master Lin Jue, there is someone outside who wants to see you. It's just outside the gate." The man greeted Lin Jue and said hurriedly.
Lin Jue stood up and asked, "Who is looking for me?"
"I don't know him. He's a gentleman dressed as a scholar. You'll know for yourself if you go and take a look."
Lin Jue was a little confused. He didn't know any friends of the scholar, and he couldn't possibly be a brother-in-law of the Lin family. Otherwise, how could the disciple not know him? So he told Lin Hu to take care of his books and clothes, and he followed the disciple to the gate of the Lin family.
Arriving outside the main courtyard door, Lin Jue saw a short scholar standing at the door with his back to him. Lin Jue stood on the steps and raised his hands and asked: "I'm Lin Jue, I don't know which brother I want to see."
Down below."
The scholar turned his head with a smile on his face, cupped his hands and said, "Senior brother, it's my younger brother who's here to see you. Don't you welcome me?"
Lin Jue was surprised and stunned, then burst into laughter.
The person who came turned out to be Fang Huanqiu, who was wearing men's clothes. I don't know where she got the gown, but it fit her well. But it was obvious that she didn't do any careful concealment. She just pulled up her long hair and stuffed it into a hat, and her face was still wet.
Just apply powder.
Lin Jue was very surprised. Fang Huanqiu suddenly appeared at the door, which was a bit of a surprise.
"Why are you here? Are you the only one here?"
"Yeah, I'm the only one, what's wrong?" Fang Huanqiu replied with a smile.
"How could your husband and wife let you go down the mountain alone?" Lin Jue expressed disbelief.
"You guessed it right, dad was invited to meet by a friend, but my mother didn't come. I originally wanted to come to the city for a stroll because of Double Seventh Festival. Dad met with friends, but I was a little depressed there.
So I asked for dad's permission to come to you. Hey, your Lin family is really impressive. I'm sure you are one of the most wealthy families in Hangzhou." Fang Huanqiu looked up at the tall gate tower and the two red doorways that were more than one foot high.
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Don't stand here anymore. Come in and talk. Go to my small courtyard. You seem to be very tired."
"I've been walking all morning, entered the city and walked here again. Oh, I'm really tired." Fang Huanqiu said with a smile.
Lin Jue hurriedly took Fang Huanqiu into Lin's house, passed through the courtyard and walked through the hanging door to the west. Soon he arrived in front of his small courtyard. Fang Huanqiu stood at the door of the small courtyard and said with a frown: "You will live here?"
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Yes, you are quite disappointed, aren't you? The Lin family mansion is not mine, I am just a small character among them."
Fang Huanqiu shook his head and said: "It's not that I'm disappointed. It seems that what my mother said is true. You really belong to the third room of the Lin family..."
Fang Huanqiu suddenly shut up. She felt that this seemed to be exposing someone's wounds. No one wanted to be reminded of his identity as a bastard to his face.
"The son of a commoner." Lin Jue laughed and finished her sentence.
"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant."
"What's the point? I don't shy away from these topics. Come into the hospital." Lin Jue said with a smile.
Entering the small courtyard, Fang Huanqiu saw the books on the floor and exclaimed: "Oh, you actually have so many books here. It seems to be more than what I have at home."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Not as many as yours. If the teacher hears what you say, I'm afraid he will be unhappy."
Fang Huanqiu rolled his eyes at Lin Jue and said: "My father is not so stingy. He said that books are for reading. He hates those who don't read the most, but they fill the study room with books and are full of knowledge. Dad doesn't like that kind of
People are most despised."
Lin Jue laughed loudly and said: "You mean, I am that kind of person? I don't curse in such a roundabout way."
Fang Huanqiu pursed his lips and smiled and said, "I don't know if you are that kind of person. Do you dare to say that you have read all the books here?"
Lin Jue smiled but did not answer, walked to the corridor and set up a chair for Fang Huanqiu, and asked Lin Hu to make a pot of tea. Fang Huanqiu then walked to the corridor and sat down. Lin Hu made tea and Lin Jue poured a cup for Fang Huanqiu.
, Fang Huanqiu covered his mouth with his sleeves, took a few sips of tea, and sighed comfortably.
