Lin's mother and Zhuang Shu heard about the news of Yulian's move, and they both had people send many housewarming gifts. Especially Lin's mother came from hard times. Knowing the niece's hardship, she didn't send those empty headed things, but only sent some things that she could use at home. Zhuang Shu said leisurely that Yulian was reading by herself. She gave her a set of four books and five classics annotated by the great scholars of the former dynasty and a set of excellent four treasures of the study. Yulian can't laugh or cry at these things. She doesn't want to take the imperial examination. Why do she want these four books and five classics? However, she would appreciate the kindness. She has been in the Shen family these days, and she has heard Shen Xi say that these books annotated by great scholars are several times more expensive than ordinary books. Therefore, the jade lotus then good life and Zhuang Shu sent four treasures of the study in a box, ready to leave his grandson what, when a family heirloom. She is not willing to use such a good pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Now her daily practice is just using the cheapest paper, which can be used for half a month.

Yulian lives very close to the Shen family. She lets people send some things to her, and Chen takes care of her. Yulian's life is gradually on the right track. At the beginning of the year, Ju Zi, who rented her house, failed in the exam, so he took over his family and lived here, preparing for the next exam. So he rented the house for another two years. The price was 40 Liang a year and half a year. With the rent, and Yulian's daily needlework, she can get seven or eight taels of silver a month, and her wife doesn't have a big expense, so her life is very nourishing.

Leisurely is sometimes envious of her small day, really comfortable, but also like the self-reliance of this cousin. Originally, it looked like a patient and submissive man, but in his heart, he was a strong man. Yulianru is getting older this year. She has seen many embroidery girls who have been blind since she was more than 40 years old. She knows the importance of eyes, so she only does needlework for two hours a day. The rest of the time is to read and read. In addition to self-study, she also took Niu Niu, who was less than three years old, to teach her to recite the Three Character Classic and so on. Sometimes read medical books, although there are still many can't understand, but she bit by bit. Sometimes I would take a book to ask the students in Aunt Chen's main courtyard. She was distressed that these students left home to study when they were young. Occasionally, they would send some snacks to them, and they would get to know each other as soon as they came and went. Because these scholars are still young and not as pedantic as adults, they are willing to teach her. By the end of La Yue, Yulian had finished reading the thousand character essay and the Three Character Classic, but she only read them twice and recognized them. However, Tao Liang, who is less than three years old, has recited the Three Character Classic thoroughly, and the thousand character essay can recite hundreds of words, which is a surprise to Yulian.

Even after listening to Tao Liang's Three Character Classic, she praised her cleverness and told her that "although she is only a girl, she is no better than the previous dynasty. Now the court allows the establishment of female households. Every year, the palace also recruits a large number of talented female officials to serve the empresses and princesses in the palace. It is because of this that many daughters of the common people's families jump to the dragon's gate. That is to say, it's easier for girls to talk to each other as long as they go to school for a few years. Now that taoliang has this talent, don't bury her. "

Yulian felt that her cousin was right and nodded, "sister, don't worry, I only have such a daughter. Naturally, I only hope she is good. She is still young now, and I can teach for two years. When she is older, I will send her to the girls' school. On the edge of the house where I live is a female master of Wenhua women's school. Now I occasionally make snacks and send them with taoliang. I just want to make a good relationship in advance so that I can talk in the future. "

Leisurely can't help sighing that she really pities the parents all over the world. How old is Tao Liangcai? Her cousin has already considered her future. Looking at the still ignorant Kang Tai, I can't help wondering if I dote on the child too much?

Kangtai, who is playing nine links with sister taoliang, seems to feel her mother's eyes and throw a bright smile towards leisurely. She has no idea that her dear mother is thinking about how to finish his carefree childhood as soon as possible.

Leisurely smile to Yulian said, "when cousin is OK, just bring taoliang to play, this year is also late, I'm ready to send Xi sister to Wenhua girl school next year." Hearing this, Yulian asked in surprise, "isn't sister Xi studying in the government all the time? Why do you want to go to Wenhua girl school now? " Leisurely back to the way, "in fact, after several young ladies of the government got married the year before last, only she and the second girl of the second room of the government went to school there. Although there are only two people, at least they have a partner. Now that the master and wife of the second room are all back, they take the two girls back to their own home. Besides, the two girls are all 15 years old. When it's time to learn from the housekeeper, the girls of the Shen family don't have to think about becoming female officials, so the two wives won't let her go. There are few girls in the Shen family in recent years, so Xi'er is the only one left in the girls' school. As I saw, I told my aunt to let her go to the girls' school directly. One is to save the trouble in that house, and the other is to let Xi'er go to the girls' school to meet more new friends. It's good to broaden her horizons. " Yulian nodded yes. When Shen Ze came back in the evening, he talked with him leisurely and said, "taoliang is only a few months older than Kangtai. Now he has learned the Three Character Classic by heart. Kangtai is three years old this year. Is it time to start enlightenment? " Shen Ze said with a smile, "it's not too late for boys. It's not too late to start enlightenment when he turns three next year. But on weekdays, when you have time, you can teach him more. "

Leisurely said with a smile, "I'm busy with the new year's ceremony these days, and I don't have much time to care about him. But sister Xi is a child watcher, and she treats him well. Although Xi didn't teach him the Three Character Classic, she taught him to recite a lot of Tang poems. But the child remembers it quickly and forgets it quickly. He's very familiar with it today. He'll forget it tomorrow. " Shen Ze said with a smile, "children are so forgetful. It will be better after two years." The couple said something else, thinking that it would be better to let the boy relax for half a year, they put it down for the time being.
