Taoyao Order

Tao Li said hello to Shao about Taoyao going to Chen Hong's library to study, but when Taoyao went over to tell Tao Yu about it on the tenth day, Tao Yu was still surprised, and then she covered her mouth and said with a smile: " It’s not impossible, it’s just that if we reconcile with him after meeting him, we will come to my house for dinner together next ten days.”

Tao Yao said a little shyly: "What did Sister Yu say? I was just told by my father not to neglect my studies, and I had some free time at Zi Ling Pavilion, so I thought that if my brother-in-law's library could allow girls to go to school, I went over to take a look. It wasn’t for anyone.”

Tao Yu said: "I don't care if you are doing it for someone or not. Anyway, you are coming to my house for lunch next ten days. You can't miss Brother Tuan's full moon wine."

Taoyao then responded with a smile: "Yes."

Chen Hong teaches in Luyue Library, which is also the largest and most famous library in Hangzhou. Therefore, it is not like ordinary family studies, with only one teacher teaching.In addition to the Four Books and Five Classics to prepare for the imperial examination, there are dedicated teachers to teach the "Ritual, Music, Archery, and Numbers" of the Six Arts of the Gentleman.

Therefore, not only men, but also occasionally families with more enlightened family traditions would send their daughters to learn etiquette, music, calligraphy, and mathematics. However, shooting and martial arts were only taught to men.

In the past, Taoyao had never thought of coming to Lu Yue Library to study. One reason was that she really didn't like reading, and the other reason was that she did study with her father at home, but that was because her father was the teacher. And her father allowed her to study and practice calligraphy like a man, so no one would ever say anything against her. But now in Hangzhou, most of the boudoir ladies she saw in Ziling Pavilion were just hidden in the back house. Even if they are literate, they usually go to various families to learn, or hire a teacher to teach them at home. Very few of them go out to study in a school.

Taoyao always used this as an excuse to deliberately shirk her father's urging to continue studying.

Now, she didn't know what happened to her that she had such thoughts again.

Is it as Taoyu thought, for him?

Taoyao didn't allow herself to answer this question.

Should we be ashamed?

Tao Yao persuaded herself not to think so. After all, she had her father's orders and her brother-in-law Chen Hong's arrangement. She informed Tao Yu and Shao. She also had fair and aboveboard reasons. She did whatever she wanted to do and did it. It's not for any shameful reason, there is no need to feel guilty.

Having said that, when that day came, Tao Yao was still very nervous as she sat on the carriage going to Lu Yue Library.

It was actually not easy for me to come to Lu Yue Academy. I had to ask for leave from Master Liu, persuade her to allow Wu Yan to learn embroidery for me at Zi Ling Pavilion, and I also had to accept Chen Hong and Tao Yu's relationship, and then set up a relationship. A precious full moon gift.

However, she still wanted to do it, so she did it.

When she came to the first class, she learned arithmetic from Chen Hong.On the one hand, it was most convenient to follow Chen Hong. Chen Hong didn't have to look around, say hello to other teachers and move a screen or a chair to let her in.

However, the etiquette, music, and books were often listened to by women in the boudoir through the screen, but this was the first time that a girl came to learn the math skills.

So early in the morning, when I saw a screen set up in the school, with a set of tables and chairs next to it, everyone was talking about it. I didn't know which girl was interested in mathematics.
