The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

It turned out that Sheng An was not suitable for direct contact with the martial arts of Sheng Guogong's mansion because of his brittle bones, so when he was four or five years old, he practiced soft body skills with a female master in order to have a solid foundation, and he can make up for his homework in the future.

Mrs. Shi, who was stationed in the Southwest at that time, knew about this in the correspondence, so she picked out the methods of martial arts that she had summed up, compiled them into a book, and mailed them to Beijing.

Not to mention the extremely detailed practice methods in the booklet, the accompanying drawings are even more detailed and vivid, even Mrs. Zheng can learn it after reading it.

Sheng An already had some knowledge, so she learned very quickly. Mrs. Shi was delighted to see that, and taught some basic skills that she had collected that were suitable for Sheng An's practice.

Since then, Mrs. Shi and Sheng An kept in constant communication. According to Sheng An's practice progress, she gave suggestions for improvement from time to time, and she even taught Sheng An some practical kung fu.

And this is also the reason why Sheng An didn't formally practice martial arts, but was able to fight all over Meng Xue and had few opponents.

"Ms. Antha will be able to formally learn Kung Fu after she has solidified her basic skills after a few years."

Mrs. Shi looked at Sheng An who immediately beamed with joy when she heard the words, and said amusedly, "However, you don't have to think too highly of those kung fus. After you practice well, you'll just be lighter, more flexible, and jump higher than others. Jump farther, run faster, and be outnumbered in a fight."

Sheng Yuan sat in her arms and heard her say that, she couldn't help rolling her eyes, and said to herself, this lady must have excellent fist skills, otherwise she wouldn't be so humble, even her humble heart would be moved.

After Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Zheng sat down firmly, they gave their daughters greeting gifts.

Mrs. Zheng gave Liang Yichun a complete set of head ornaments, from hairpins, hairpins, and step-ups, to Huasheng, tin, and combs. There are a total of six types and 36 styles.

There are eight types of hairpins: Ruyi hairpin inlaid with gemstones inlaid with white jade, orchid grass hairpin inlaid with emerald ivory and glazed tassels, magpie hairpin in gold silk enamel and crystal, two large and six small hairpins in silver begonia filigree, double flying hairpin with pearls and colorful jade butterflies, and topaz ring embellished Double tassel hairpin with bells, double dragonfly wings hairpin with emerald dots and rubies, and tassel hairpin with purple jade peach blossom branches.

Like hairpins, there are twelve hairpins, all of which are dotted with emerald greens and stacked with auspicious clouds to welcome magpies.These hairpins can be used alone, or in pairs, or even twelve hairpins can be inserted into one's head.

There are six statue steps: double magpies with jeweled orbs and tassel steps, gold-plated twin pagodas with palace tassel steps, spring character pattern with peony-like fringe steps, carp jumping and water flower tassel steps, colorful deer, copper crane and auspicious cloud tassel steps Shake, Baibao Ruyi with persimmon-shaped tassels.

As for the rest, Huasheng and Tian have two respectively, and six combs.

"I heard what you said in your letter. Sister Zhichun is going to hold the wedding ceremony at her grandfather's house. Our hometown is far away from the capital. I have to take care of my family and I can't go there, so I took out the gifts for her in advance. Alright, as for the reunion ceremony..."

Mrs. Zheng handed over a medicinal jade: "Although this object is called jade, it is not jade. It can cure all kinds of diseases and avoid miasma when worn by your side for a long time. If you are poisoned or injured, grind it into powder, or take it orally or apply it externally. Most of the symptoms can be alleviated, and although it may not be completely eradicated, it is possible to save life."

"Hey! This is too expensive!" Mrs. Shi was shocked when she heard this, "This is the secret medicine of your maternal ancestor's family. It is said that the finished product is difficult to produce, and you only brought six of them when you married."

Seeing her exaggerated reaction, Mrs. Zheng couldn't help laughing and said, "I gave you one when you went to the Southwest. Why is it like seeing you for the first time? Besides, you said that this child is on the battlefield. I am an aunt." Always do your best.”

Mrs. Shi said again, "That is enough for her."

"Hmph, let's talk about it after you've stayed in Beijing for a long time!" Mrs. Zheng gave her an angry look.

Mrs. Shi laughed for a moment, but she didn't let her take it back.

What Zheng gave to Liang Erxia and Liang Shanqiu was a set of colored jade-encrusted tourmaline-encrusted paintbrushes and double copies of full-color paints, as well as a Guqin and a pipa each from a musical instrument family as a tribute to the imperial court.

As for the gift for the youngest, Liang Youdong, it was a thyme mirror remade from a telescope called clairvoyance.

Although the name of the Bailijing is nice, it can only zoom in on the scene within a hundred steps.

Of course, even if you can only see within a hundred steps, it is a very rare gift for a child. Rao Liang Youdong is very well-behaved, and he likes to play with the binoculars non-stop.

Zheng's gift is not light, and Mrs. Shi's gift is also very generous.

She first gave Sheng Xin, Sheng An, and Sheng Yuan a rosewood cabinet carved with bats, peaches, magpies, and sika deer.

The wooden cabinet has three floors, the first floor is full of jade, agate, jadeite, tortoiseshell, jasper, etc., there are about ten kinds.

Most of these jade materials are irregular in shape and look like they have just been mined.

And these jade stones, the smallest ones are as big as a baby's fist.

The second layer is the unique medicinal materials in Southwest China, such as gastrodia elata, snow lotus, saffron; angelica, panax notoginseng, red snow tea; Scutellaria baicalensis; rock cabbage, berberine, bean curd fruit, Artemisia argyi; fritillaria, green ginseng, Tengchong magnolia, Baixue tea.

The third floor is a variety of animal decorations carved from precious woods, among which the famous sandalwood and red sandalwood are the most.

When Zheng saw it, she couldn't help but marvel: "Sister Yiyu, are you going to the Southwest to open source and dig treasures? These are too expensive, one is enough, do you have three more?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Shi waved her hand indifferently: "If you have ten or eight more children, I will send them as well!"

In addition to giving the same gift to the three children, she also prepared different meeting gifts for them.

The young gentleman Sheng Xin was given a Wusun horse that was just born;

For Sheng An are 36 gilt copper boomerangs and a bronze ruler sword;
For Sheng Yuan, there are large and small imitation iron-eating beasts.

"Wow!" Sheng Yuan stared at the dozens of national treasures of the past, big and small, his eyes straightened.

Even the system was amazed by the superb skills of the time to the extent that it basically restored the appearance and form of pandas. From a distance, it seemed that there were really a group of pandas playing around: [I don’t know, I thought this Mrs. Shi brought all six generations of her grandparents with her. coming! 】

"Come back and find a spare room, ask the servant girl to arrange the bamboo and rocks according to the drawings, and then arrange these iron-eating beasts according to your own ideas, and then you can play."

Mrs. Shi pointed to the two largest pandas and said with a smile: "There is a mechanism inside. You can ride on it and gently press your feet against the iron-eating beast's abdomen, and it will be able to walk slowly!"

Then he pointed to the two slightly chubby pandas and said, "These two are actually rocking chairs, and you can play with them when you put the prepared chairs on them."

"..." Not only Sheng Yuan's eyes were straightened, but Sheng An and Zheng couldn't help but stepped forward to touch her.

Mrs. Shi saw that she was no longer in her friend's happy eyes, and she touched the fat baby in her arms speechlessly.
