Chapter 219 Calligraphy
"Sir, why did you come here in person? Are we going to practice the piano later?" Shangguan Qingyue had unconsciously become accustomed to Xuanyuan Yan's strict demands on her.
Baili Nanqing smiled and said:
"You are quite self-aware. It seems that I, your mother, will not have to suffer from your evil voice any longer.
His Highness will be staying in our villa from today onwards. He has agreed to my unwelcome request. He will not only teach you to play the piano, but also take care of your studies. You don't have to go to the village school for the time being.
You must study hard and don't make the teacher unhappy. But... don't work too hard. We women don't need to take the imperial examinations. We study only to understand reason."
Xuanyuan Yan chuckled. This Madam Shangguan was really so serious that she was reluctant to say a harsh word to her daughter!
The little stone beside him was a little anxious.
"My beautiful mother-in-law, what about me? Mr. Zheng's teachings are too simple. I always fall asleep in class. I want to stay at home with Ruoxi."
Shangguan Qingyue didn't care whether there was a child prodigy in her family. She knew that too much wisdom would lead to harm. What a child needed was a happy childhood, and she didn't care about genius.
So she said:
"You still have to go to school. You are still young, so you should spend more time with children of the same age. I named you 'Kangle' because I hope you can be healthy and happy throughout your life. I never wish for you to be a noble or a prime minister or to rise to prominence.
However, can the time be changed from one day to half a day? Is that okay?"
Little Shitou's pouting mouth finally dropped in satisfaction. He actually didn't like getting along with those kids. They were either rude and arrogant or stupid!
However, since it was Ruoxi's wish, he would just obey her. Anyway, no matter what Ruoxi did, it was for his own good!
Xuanyuan Yan, who was sitting at the side, recalled his childhood experiences again in his mind, which were filled with harsh scolding and suppressed tears. He used to be very puzzled, why he was the noble third prince, but why he lived in such darkness every day.
The white-haired child who once wrapped himself in a dirty hat and tattered clothes and had no sense of existence was insulted, beaten, scolded and even abandoned at will.
It is completely different from the little fairy boy in front of me today, who smiles happily and contentedly, and is raised like a delicate porcelain doll.
How lucky!
Suddenly, a sound like a clear spring came into my ears:
"Sir, after piano lessons in the afternoon, the fairy boy and I are going to the mountains to collect folk songs. Do you want to come with us?"
"it is good."
In fact, he only heard the last sentence clearly. He was willing to do whatever he wanted, because as long as it was related to this girl, it seemed to be very interesting.
……
Wang Shuhua tidied up his room and excitedly went to the main room to look for Xuanyuan Yan. When he found out he was nowhere to be found, he started asking around.
At the same time, she was not idle. She took the servants for a walk and suddenly heard the sound of Lang Lang reading. She asked a villager and found out the way to the village school.
When she discovered that in this remote countryside there was not only a village school but also a girls' class, she was so shocked that she couldn't recover for a long time.
She even suspected that there was some hermit living here, and that the villagers had such incredible good fortune because of his guidance.
She walked lightly and slowly approached the students' classroom.
Liu was writing freely on the blackboard, teaching students to write. The girls who came to the school were of different ages and generally had poor learning abilities, but their strengths were that they were well-behaved, sensible, and hardworking.
Seeing their eager eyes, Liu felt a sense of pride that "God has entrusted me with a great mission". Therefore, she taught very seriously and did not notice anyone outside the window.
Shangguan Qingyue asked someone to make this blackboard, and she was deeply moved every time she used it. She taught easily, and the students learned faster. It was not until the break that she saw the beautiful lady standing in the yard.
Wang Shuhua did not hesitate, and walked quickly into the classroom, bowed slightly and said:
"I am a little girl painting and happened to pass by this place. I didn't expect that there is a girls' school in such a small mountain village. I don't know what the teacher's name is, and how he thought of teaching girls to read here?"
As soon as Liu heard the woman's accent, she knew she was from another place. Then, seeing that she was dressed gorgeously and exquisitely, she must be from a wealthy family.
She smiled calmly and replied:
"I am not worthy of the title of 'Mr.'. My surname is Liu and my given name is Ruyan. You can just call me Ruyan.
Although our Xiangxue Village is a mountain village, it is vast and rich in resources, and it is also full of talented people, so it is not too surprising to have a girls' school. "
Wang Shuhua could tell from her desire to protect this place, but he didn't care and continued with a smile:
"I find this black wall very interesting. I wonder if Sister Ruyan would let me use it?"
"Sister Shuhua is free to do whatever you want. We still have half a quarter of an hour before the next class starts, so there is still plenty of time."
Looking at the dirty lime marker on the table, the maid beside Wang Shuhua took out an embroidered handkerchief, wrapped the marker around and handed it to her.
After the sentence "Leap years make a new year, the rhythm of the lü tunes the yang", he continued writing in a fluent manner:
'The rising clouds bring rain, the dew condenses into frost; gold produces beautiful water, and jade emerges from Kungang. '
The brushstrokes are vigorous and powerful, as if containing boundless passion.
After reading it, Liu Ruyan did not hesitate to praise it:
"The brushstrokes are like flowing water, the characters are like pine and cypress, and the form and spirit are well-matched. It is a rare and good handwriting! Forgive me for being so shameless, could you please trouble me again and write this Thousand Character Classic on the blackboard at the back of the classroom so that the students can observe and learn it every day?"
Rumo, who was standing beside him, frowned immediately after hearing this and said in a cold and hard tone:
"Sir, your request is too much! Since it is called 'Thousand Character Classic', it must have at least a thousand characters. Although I can't read many characters, I know that our young lady's hands will not be able to bear writing so many characters!"
Liu Ruyan knew that she was in the wrong and her request was indeed a bit excessive, but she really admired Wang Shuhua's beautiful calligraphy.
“Ru Mo, don’t be rude!
Sister Ruyan, please don't blame me. This maid has followed me since she was a child. Apart from her unkind mouth, she has a good heart.
I have something else to do today so I can't stay too long, but before I leave this village, I will definitely leave this Thousand Characters in the school."
The girls around had long lost the mood to relax. Although they couldn't tell what was good about this beautiful girl's handwriting, they just thought it was very beautiful.
If she really agreed to leave her calligraphy, and practiced imitating it every day, she might be able to learn a thing or two. This is a rare good thing!
After hearing the other party's agreement, the classroom immediately rang with joyful sounds, and the volume was kept very low for fear of being considered rude and indecent.
The feeling of being liked by others was really wonderful, which made her even happier than when she won the debate with scholars. This Xiangxue Village was really a nice place, and it seemed that she should stay for a few more days.
I heard that there was a very gorgeous house built on a hill in this village. I wonder if it was the hermit she guessed. Wang Shuhua decided to find it all the way there to find out.
