Landlord's hot day

Chapter 33 Yang Dalang's transformation

The fish set a goal for himself, but he didn't find a way to reach the goal, so the fish lay on the small window in the cabin for several days, looking at the blue sea with his chin and meditated...

When it comes to self-cultivation, the first thing that fish thinks of is to practice Buddhism and enlightenment. If the fish can recite scriptures day after day and year after year like those monks in the temple, they can knock out their patience even if they are impatient.

But the problem is that the fish is not interested in Buddhism at all, and she doesn't want to be a sister-in-law! Fish doesn't want to be a goddess and Taoist woman that she has always despised...

So the fish took the lead in not taking it into consideration, and could only continue to come up with feasible methods. Soon the fish came up with two ideas - playing the piano or chess.

This stroking piano is not only a talent that can cultivate an elegant and refined temperament, but also a talent that can make learners cultivate themselves. Yuer has seen many beautiful women in floating white clothes and elegant stroking the piano in the TV series. She is somewhat longing for this talent and wants to experience it for personal experience.

But reality often ruthlessly shatters longing, expectations and hopes. Judging from the current situation of the Yang family, if Yuer wants to use the piano to cultivate her sentiment and self-cultivation, then Liu must first buy her a piano, and then hire a master to teach her - only the little lady of a large family dares to do these things. Thinking, even if Liu was willing and the fish was embarrassed to let the family spend this money... So the fish abandoned this method.

As for playing chess, the Yang family probably can't play chess. Even if Yang Dalang went to study in the city and was lucky to learn from the classmates of rich families, there was no spare money to buy chessboards and chess pieces for the fish.

So after thinking about it, Yuer didn'er not think of a method that could be adopted, so she lay more on the small window. Even Li Erniu, a friend of the next boat, came to play with her, and she was too lazy to deal with it. She only made a lazy excuse that she didn't want to go out to play today and dismissed Li Erniu.

The first one to find that the fish was listless was Yang Silang, who returned from school. Yang Silang has always loved his younger sister, so as soon as he saw the fish lying sullenly on the small window, he did not rush to run to the village to play. After putting down the cage, he held the fish in his arms.

Yang Silang took the fish to the bow to breathe and asked with a smile, "What's wrong with our sister?" Why do you look listless? On weekdays, when the fourth brother comes back, won't you run out to meet him? Why did you ignore the fourth brother today?

Yu'er is now full of troubles and wants to talk to others, and Yang Silang is 11 years old and a little adult in ancient times. In addition, several children of the Yang family are relatively precocious and sensible because of their poor family, so Yang Silang has slowly left the image of a little boy in the eyes of the fish. So Yuer really wants to talk to him about his troubles and see if Yang Silang has any good ideas for her to get rid of her bad habits...

"Fourth brother, my mother taught the fish to do needlework, but the fish always couldn't sit still," the fish paused and said the second half of the sentence: "The fish can't even sit still, let alone learn the activities taught by my mother."

"It turns out that our sister has been sad for a few days, because of this!"

Yang Silang said while sitting on the low stool in the bow of the boat, holding the fish on his lap before slowly coaxing the fish: "Sister, it's normal for you to be young and playful. If you can't sit still, just spread your feet and play. It's not too late for our sister to sit down and learn!" "

Yang Silang's words made Yuer bury her face and quietly roll her eyes. How could she forget that Yang Silang was also a girl lover? Even if you dote on yourself more than Liu, how can you force yourself to learn from those complicated and trivial female workers?

And the fish is only five years old now. Yang Silang, a big boy, naturally did not associate the student red with the married man! He felt that his sister was still young, and he didn't hurt enough. How could he send her to someone else's house so quickly?

So Yang Silang's words made Yuer sigh helplessly and said, "Fourth brother, but Li Erniu of the next boat followed her mother to learn needlework when she was four years old. Zhang Sanniang at the entrance of the village is only six years old. She can not only sew and mend, but also make several kinds of hooks! After knowing their skills, did the fourth brother think that the fish was very stupid?

"No way! Our fish is the smartest girl in the village! We fish must know how to learn those skills, so it's okay to learn later. Anyway, we fish..."

Before Yang Silang finished speaking, he was hit heavily on his forehead. He shouted "Ouch" and turned his head to look back. Yang Dalang didn't know when he had stood behind Yang Silang, holding a rolled up book in his hand and staring at Yang Silang with a straight face. Obviously, he just knocked on Yang Silang's head with the book. .

As soon as Yang Silang saw that it was Yang Dalang who hit him, he immediately shouted with an aggrieved face, "Brother, why did you hit me? Although my head is still working well, if it is broken and stupid by you, what will you take to compensate me?

Yang Dalang stared at Yang Silang and said, "If you don't review your teacher's lessons well, you are idle here to teach our sister. Do I still want to praise you if I don't hit you?"

"I only listened to the homework taught by my husband once and wrote it down. There is no need to review it when I come back!"

Yang Silang is talented and has the ability to never forget, so when he saw Yang Dalang blame him, he muttered in an indifferent whisper, and he didn't understand why Yang Dalang reviewed his lessons as soon as he studied every day, but his homework was only similar to him. Yang Silang even felt that his younger brother could read well. It's better than Yang Dalang...

Yang Silang's muttering made him hit his head again, and Yang Dalang's old-fashioned voice sounded again: "What are you muttering about? Is it wrong for the eldest brother to teach you? Sir has not taught us that no matter what their qualifications are, we must study hard and never be too conceited and arrogant..."

Yang Silang did not dare to provoke his old-fashioned and pedantic brother, so he immediately changed his attitude and shouted, "I'm shouting injustice for myself!" How can I teach our sister badly? Brother, don't wrong me!"

"No?"

Yang Silang's smooth quivering made Yang Dalang stare more roundly and hummed angrily: "How can there be a brother who does not persuade his young sister to learn good female celebrity, cooking and other activities, but to urge his younger sister to play wantonly? Do you know how many skills our young lady to be married in the Northern Song Dynasty has to learn so that she will not be looked down upon or bullied by her husband's family?

Yang Silang is not as rigid as Yang Dalang, so he said carelessly, "As long as our brothers come back from an official position, our sister will not be able to learn anything at that time. With the support of our official brothers, how can the future mother-in-law dare to see it? Up her? No one dares to bully her after getting married! Besides, isn't this mother-in-law's family also chosen by us with our eyes wide open?

"You son of a bitch, don't talk nonsense again! What if we can't get an official position? Or what if we get the exam but the official career is not going well? Besides, all the well-teaching people will follow the rules ** the little wife of the family. Don't you let your sister learn these things early to make people look down on our Yang family and Amei in the future?

Yang Silang, who has been born a little proudly because he was a child. His concept is very contrary to Yang Dalang, who studies hard every day. Yang Silang usually can learn everything he teaches without studying hard, so he is very free and comfortable to read books, which makes Yang Silang unable to agree with him. Yang Dalang took a look and thought that Yang Dalang's failure to be tacky was because he had a bad head in reading...

So Yang's lesson made Yang Silang very unconvinced, so he immediately refuted: "I didn't say that I wouldn't let my sister learn anything. I just let her learn later. Besides, isn't that what my mother meant? Did the eldest brother say that his mother did something wrong?

"Are you still obsessed with it?! And carry out your mother as your shield, you..."

"Okay!"

Before Yang Dalang finished speaking, Yuer interrupted first. When the eyes of the two people who were quarreling focused on him, the fish continued to say, "Brother, fourth brother, if you continue to quarrel, the fish will ignore you!" Fish doesn't like your quarrel! If you continue to quarrel, the fish will hate you very, very much!"

Yuer deliberately said "very" twice in a row to show that she was really angry. She knew that Yang Dalang and Yang Silang actually loved themselves and for their own good, so they quarreled because of different ideas, but the two had no bad intentions, and if they continued to quarreled, it would only hurt each other's brotherhood... So Yuer Anyway, we should stop them from quarreling any longer.

Yang Silang's temperament is relatively unruly, so when he saw that the fish was angry, he immediately changed his charming smile and said softly, "Don't be angry, don't be angry. Our sister is not angry. It's all the fourth brother's not good. The fourth brother should not quarrel with the eldest brother. Can't the fourth brother know that he is wrong?"

"Come on, sister beat the bad fourth brother. After beating, you can't be angry with the fourth brother again!" Yang Silang said with a pitiful look: "If my sister ignores the fourth brother, then the fourth brother will live a miserable life. Not only can he not play with our little pistachio, but he will definitely be taught by his mother for making his sister angry!"

Yang Silang's words made Yuer very satisfied and said, "The fourth brother is not allowed to make the eldest brother angry again!"

"Uh-huh, can't I stop talking?" After saying that, Yang Silang deliberately squeezed his mouth tightly, saying that he would not quarrel with Yang Dalang again.

After the fish "finished" Yang Silang, she turned to Yang Dalang with a sweet smile and said, "Brother, don't quarrel anymore!"

If Yang Silang is the most direct and charming girl protection control, then Yang Dalang is the least direct and awkward sister protection control. In fact, he has raised the flag and surrendered because of the fish's words, but he still said awkwardly: "Since the fourth brother has admitted his mistake, then I don't I'm going to scold him again, but you can't help but listen to what the eldest brother said! Big brother is also for your own good..."

So Yang Dalang immediately shifted his goal and said a lot of big truths to the fish, which was nothing more than to let the fish suffer and work harder at present, and learn all the work that the female red and cooking skills needed to be learned to marry the little woman one by one, so that he could marry a good family in the future.

Yang Dalang also talked painstakingly with the fish about the benefits of learning these activities in the future. In the end, he even asked the fish not to run to the village all the time, play like wild maids, and let the fish learn to be a lady from now on...

Yang Dalang's words made Yu'er listen to the first two. She knew that Yang Dalang's nagging was also for her good and sincerely for her sake, but Yu'er had to admit what Yang Silang had said in private - Yang Dalang has really read his head badly in recent years because he studied too hard. !

At present, Yang Dalang can be said to be a replica of Yang Dazhu, but Yang Dazhu also showed some stubbornness in Yang Liulang's abandonment of business. In the end, he still changed his concept and attitude. But at present, Yang Dalang is not only stubborn, but also pedantic and rigid. Obviously, he has become the pedantic literati under the influence of books.

Yang Dalang has unconsciously changed his personality. Can the Yang family blame him or say that he is not good?

Yuer knew that he couldn't, because Yang Dalang forced himself to study hard with the idea of studying hard and finally changing his family name on the gold list. He did not have Yang Silang's talent, so he could only use diligence to make up for his shortcomings and force himself to remember those obscure words and sentences in his mind.

Well, it can only be said that the ancient education system has taught the cute and simple Yang Dalang before. At present, Yang Dalang, who is so limited to etiquette and rules, will definitely not make trouble with a few younger brothers like before...

Yuer can only slowly change Yang Dalang's concept, but this is not something that can be done at the moment, so all she can do now is to change the topic and interrupt Yang Dalang's long speech: "Brother, Yuer also wants to learn needlework from her mother, but the fish is active by nature and can't sit still after a while. Do you have any good way to make the fish sit for a long time?

"Can't sit still?"

Yang Dalang frowned slightly and quickly found the key: "Sister, you must like to play too much, so now you lack the patience that the little lady should have."

The fish has known this for a long time, but it's not easy to say it directly. At present, Yang Dalang has been lured to tell the cause, and the fish just followed his words and asked, "So what should be done to make the fish patient?"

Yang Dalang's face showed an embarrassed look when he heard the words. After thinking for a while, he replied, "This patience has to be cultivated slowly. I'm afraid it's a little difficult to hone for a while."

"Please think of a good way for Yuer. Yuer wants to become as patient as other little women in the village and can sit obediently and learn needlework from her mother." Yuer pulled the corners of Yang Dalang's clothes with a sincere face, saying that he really wanted to hone his patience.

Yang Dalang thought for a while when he heard the words. After thinking for a while, he said happily, "Yes! I have a way to make my sister practice the patience that a little lady should have!"

"What method?" Yuer and Yang Silang asked in one voice.

"Practice big characters!" Yang Dalang said the answer word by word.

"Practice big characters?"

Yang Silang raised his eyebrows and repeated Yang Dalang's words, and subconsciously asked, "But now, Amei can't even read words. How can she write words on paper?"

While Yang Silang expressed his doubts, Yuer has happily accepted Yang Dalang's proposal, and also believes that practicing big characters is really a good way to cultivate self-cultivation and cultivate sentiment! Besides, Yuer originally planned to pester Yang Dalang to understand ancient and traditional Chinese characters. Now that Yang Dalang has taken the initiative to mention it, how can Yuer let go of this good opportunity?

So as soon as Yang Silang finished speaking, Yuer immediately continued, "The fourth brother is so stupid. You can let the eldest brother teach Yuer to read first. Can't Yuer write after literacy?"

However, at this time, Yang Dalang was a little regretful and said hesitantly, "But it's a little irregular that you don't teach the fish girl to read, but teach her how to read, right? As the saying goes, 'a woman without talent is virtue'..."

Yang Dalang and Yuer took out the rules of the book without saying anything for a while, which made Yuer and Yang Silang couldn't help rolling their eyes secretly. Yang Silang protested directly: "Brother, if you don't want to teach sister to read, I'll teach you. Don't move out another big one. Here comes the big truth, isn't it just being illiterate? Is it so serious?"

When Yang Dalang heard the words, he corrected Yang Silang's "wrong" concept: "Fourth brother, you said it's wrong. It's a serious matter for this little woman to learn female celebrities, cooking skills, etc. It's okay to read fewer words. I don't let the fish read and read, but I don't want her to put the cart before the horse..."

After Yang Dalang finished training Yang Silang, he did not forget to add: "Fourth brother, you can't secretly teach your sister to read and read. You can make a decision after I have reported to your father and mother."

After saying this, Yang Dalang really went to look for Yang Dazhu and his wife immediately, and the fish couldn't help staring at Yang Dalang's back. Is this Yang Dalang a child who grew up in a small farm? Why do you not only become literary when you read too many books, but also pay attention to so many rules?!

In fact, Yuer wronged Yang Dalang. His concept and practice are very normal in the eyes of the people of the Northern Song Dynasty. After all, the concept of "women without talent is virtue" was really respected in that era, and the world was more concerned about the skills of female housekeepers and the quality of female celebrities, cooking skills and other aspects.

Even women from rich families are more likely to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but they only read a little bit of poetry and books and do not focus on training. So it can only be said that Yang Dalang is too rigid and obedient.

Recently, I feel that I don't have as much feeling and inspiration as before. If I don't write well, please forgive me. Maybe Xiaoyun is in the adjustment period~
