Chapter 19
After dinner, Yuxi walked around the yard to digest.
Seeing that Shen's mother was not there, Hongshan said to Yuxi in a low voice: "Girl, at noon, the old lady asked the eldest lady to intercede with Mr. Song's second girls." feel bad. Hongshan knew that she had done something wrong, and now she tried her best to show her presence in front of Yuxi. Her advantage is to inquire about news, she believes that as long as it is useful to the girl, the girl will not keep her cold.
There was a sneer on Yuxi's face, the eldest aunt hated Aunt Rong's mother and daughter so much, it was really disgusting that the old lady wanted her to intercede with Mr. Song.
At the end of the Xu Dynasty, Yuxi finished her homework, but she didn't go to bed, but read the book. Not only did I review what I learned, but I also reviewed the basic enlightenment books such as "Hundred Surnames" and "Thousand Characters". According to Mr. Song's progress, these books can be finished in half a month. This made Yuxi feel a sense of crisis,
Yuru, who was also writing, couldn't finish writing after only half of her homework. She wrote too much, and her hands hurt badly: "Zhuxuan, I don't want to go to Yulan Garden anymore." If it is like this every day for a month, she will go crazy.
Zhu Xuan also felt sorry for her daughter: "Girl, we have to find a way if we don't want to miss it, we can't be like the second girl."
Yuru nodded and said, "I can't take it anymore." She couldn't bear it any longer, and had to think of a good way to get out of it.
On another occasion, Yu Jing cried after writing for half an hour: "Auntie, my hand hurts, I can't write anymore. Auntie, my hand is about to break off."
Aunt Rong hardened her heart and said: "You have to write even if your hand hurts, otherwise you will suffer from hand-slapping tomorrow." Being beaten is a trivial matter, and Mr. Song is afraid that Yujing will be kicked out of school because of her poor performance.
Yu Jing was forced to continue writing. But being forced and learning actively are completely different things. Yujing wrote until midnight and still had more than 100 words to write.
Aunt Rong had no choice but to say: "Go to bed first, and get up to write tomorrow morning."
Yu Jing choked and said, "Even if you finish your homework, if you can't recite the text, you will be punished." There will be no escape tomorrow with ten hands.
Yu Jing felt that it was very difficult. Although she said that she was hitting with her left hand, it also affected her writing speed! This Mr. Song is really a devil.
The next day, Yuru was beaten six times; Yujing was beaten eight times; Yuchen was still the same as yesterday, not only reciting the text smoothly, but also explaining it accurately; There were only two pauses in the middle.
Mr. Song is actually quite satisfied with Yuxi's performance. It is really very good to be able to perform so well without any foundation. Mr. Song praised Yuxi: "Very good, but we have to keep working hard."
Yuxi didn't have any joy at Mr. Song's praise. Although she said that she paused these two times on purpose, she knew that even if she didn't hide her clumsiness, at most she could only draw with Che. This is still a blow to her who has lived an extra life.
Yu Jing felt that it was unfair: "Sir, the fourth sister also made a mistake, why didn't you hit her?" Even if the analysis was correct, there was always a pause.
Mr. Song couldn't see the jealousy in Yujing's eyes, and said blankly: "If you think it's unfair, you can leave." People had to bow their heads under the eaves, so they only backed down a step yesterday. If there is a second time, she will never let Yujing appear in her classroom again.
Thinking about what happened yesterday, Yujing was afraid that she would be kicked out of class and dare not make any more troubles. At the moment, he can only look at Yu Xi with hatred, waiting for her to find a chance to punish this stinky girl.
After class was over, Yuxi shook her sore arm. I have written so much these past two days that my hands are no longer my own.
Yuchen saw Yuxi's action yesterday and couldn't say anything, but she didn't expect Yuxi to repeat this action today, and now she couldn't help but said: "Fourth sister, your action is very indecent, you can't do it again in the future .
"Every lady should smile without showing her teeth, and walk like a lotus flower. How can she have such rough movements. If she wants to go out to socialize in the future, she will do the same. She thinks that the Duke's Mansion is uneducated. Yuchen thinks that she should tell her grandma about Yu Hee's etiquette question.
The corner of Yuxi's mouth twitched, and she said, "I just shook my arm because my arm was sore." She had a pain in her hand, and it wasn't because she was shaking her arm for fun.
Yuchen didn't expect Yuxi to refute her words, so he was taken aback for a moment. The main reason is that the people around her are obedient to her, even Yu Jing, who is like a domineering king, dare not speak big words in front of her.
Yuxi ignored Yuchen's reaction, everyone was used to Yuchen, but she didn't want to. But she is not willing to offend Yuchen either. After packing up her things, Yuxi said, "If Sanjie is okay, I'll go back first."
The servant looked at Yuxi's back and said unhappily: "I really don't know good people. Girl, let's leave the matter of the fourth girl in the future."
Yuchen pursed her lips and said, "How can you ignore it?" After all, Yuxi is also her younger sister, if she indulges and ignores her, she will only accuse them of being uneducated in the future.
Yuxi wrote dozens of words and couldn't write any more. Writing and writing too much these days, not only my hands are burning hot, but my arms are also so painful.
Seeing this, Shen's mother could only rub her shoulders. After rubbing for half an hour, Yuxi felt much more comfortable, and her hands also felt more comfortable after applying ointment.
Yuxi said with a bitter face: "What can I do in the future?" It's only been two days, and she is still like this in the future, she is really worried that her hand will be destroyed.
Shen's mother comforted: "Don't worry, girl, Mr. Song was also very strict at the beginning, and it will be fine after this hurdle is over."
Yuxi seldom went out in her previous life, and spent most of her time in her own yard. Although Mr. Song taught Yuchen in the Duke's Mansion for five years, Yuxi didn't know her well, and asked, "Why was it so strict at the beginning?" ? You won’t be strict in the future?”
Shen's mother took the trouble to inquire about Mr. Song: "This study is hard work. If you can't even bear the pain at the beginning, how can you persist until the end? The old slave guessed that Mr. Song should see if the girl can endure the hardship. .”
Yuxi is dubious. However, no matter what the result is, we must persist in these few months.
It only took Mr. Song two and a half days to finish teaching the "Three Character Classic", and another half an hour to take out their homework and point out the shortcomings of their big characters.
Among the four, Yuchen wrote the best, and the one who wrote the worst was either Yuxi or Yuru.
Yuru burst into tears when she heard Mr. Song say that her handwriting was flimsy, as if written by a patient.
Mr. Song felt that it was really rotten wood. She taught so quickly not to torment the four girls, but because the four of them had already learned all the basic enlightenment books. It is equivalent to saying that she is going over what the four of them have learned, and doing more analysis to let everyone deepen their impressions. But in the end, the second girl didn't comment, and the eldest girl was also in a mess. People with poor aptitude are unwilling to work hard, cry when encountering something, and mud can't support the wall.
A strange feeling emerged in Yu Xi's heart. It stands to reason that she should be the weakest of the four, but why is it that Yuru, the biggest, has no strength to write?
Mr. Song ignored Yuru who was crying beside him, and said: "Handwriting is also a person's face. If you write badly, you will be laughed at when you go out in the future. Therefore, whether you learn it well or not is the second. Write it well. You must practice your handwriting well in the future."
Yuxi felt that her words were like golden words. It's a pity that when I do my homework at night, I don't feel so comfortable. I wrote too much, and my hands were covered with blood blisters, which looked very scary. Mother Shen took a needle and pierced Yuxi, and then applied ointment.
Seeing Yu Xi gritted her teeth and endured the pain, Shen's mother couldn't bear it: "Miss, bear with it, and it will be fine after this period of time. There is an old saying that is good, you can be the best when you suffer."
Yuxi looked at the ointment in Shen's mother's hand and asked, "Will this ointment leave scars?" This ointment reminded Yuxi of a prescription for removing scars.
Shen's mother shook her head with a smile and said: "Don't worry, girl, this is the best jade ointment, which was sent by the old lady. This jade ointment can quickly reduce swelling and pain, and it will not leave scars." Mom said this to let Yuxi know that the old lady still cared about her.
Yuxi didn't appreciate it, and probably gave her the jade ointment when it was given to Yuchen. So she said lightly, "I see."
After applying the medicine, Yuxi rested for a while and went to the table to prepare shoes. Shen's mother hurriedly stopped her: "Girl, you have medicine on your hands, so don't write today. Write tomorrow!"
Yuxi shook her head and said: "There are still more than a hundred big characters that have not been written. I haven't finished writing today, and I won't be able to get up and endorse tomorrow morning." Cough, I have always heard that Mr. Song's teaching is scary, but now I know the rumors after experiencing it personally. I am not exaggerating.
Mo Ju spoke quickly, and said, "Girl, how do you write when your hands are covered with medicine?" Seeing the girl suffer, she also felt very uncomfortable. This Mr. Song is too scary.
Yuxi smiled and said: "The right hand is not good, the left hand is always."
In her previous life, she was not liked by Jiang's family, and she didn't like to socialize. She stayed in the yard all day long, and couldn't do anything except embroidery. Embroidering every day is also a bit boring. Once she had a chance to embroider with her left hand, she practiced it for several years. However, she didn't use her left hand to write, and she couldn't control the strength when she wrote. The characters she wrote were all a ball of ink. However, these characters vary in length and thickness, and they are ugly as hell.
Shen's mother stared at Yuxi dumbfounded, she didn't expect the fourth girl to have such abilities, while Mo Ju just opened her mouth wide and was speechless for a long time.
Yuxi spent double the time to finish the rest of the homework, and seeing that it was not time to go to bed, she took out her book to review again.
Seeing that the candle was almost burnt out, Mo Ju went to get another one to light.
