Chapter 7

Chapter 7

She thought that this kind of home life would be very ordinary, but unexpectedly, one day in July, her house was shaken.Oh, I was wrong, not only her house was shaken, the emperor's house was also shaken, to be exact, the whole of Beijing was shaken.Yao Jing was lying in the car at that time, but she didn't feel too shaky.Even before she could react, the earthquake was over, and the next step was to deal with the aftermath.

Except that the little girl ran around in a panic for a while, howled twice before being slapped by the nanny and slapped her into the corner, crying.The whole family, although everyone was pale, was still orderly.Yao Jing was shocked when she realized that, these days, don't earthquakes be regarded as major events?Even now, it is not a big earthquake.

My house is quite solid, but a little bit of dirt has fallen.The nanny led the child to the main room to be checked by Er Niang. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, everyone put away the broken porcelain that fell on the floor, put the disturbed furniture back in its place, and cleaned up the scattered food in the kitchen. , and then struggled to find out the water, fearing that the well water would not be edible.And then... what should I do!
Yao Jing's whole body was in a state of confusion, such an exciting thing...they actually...came down!

Sun, is this still an ancient person?Didn't the ancients think that when they encountered a solar eclipse and an earthquake, it was God who wanted to make things difficult for everyone?
Fortunately, no matter how calm the ancient people were, they would still feel a little uneasy in the face of natural disasters. If not, someone would whisper?

Chunxi: "I was scared to death yesterday."

Xia Xi: "You still said, I wasn't afraid at first, but I was frightened by you when I howled around."

Chunxi: "Nonsense, you obviously howled earlier than me! How come I'm the only one called by Nanny Yin?"

Xia Xi: "That's because you howled too loudly, like killing a pig."

Chunxi: "You're the one who kills pigs!"

Yao Jing: ...You two are so nutritious!
Here comes the nutritious one, Chunxi: "Mammy is mammy after all, she didn't move at all, and she still remembered to go to see the second girl. I was so frightened."

Xia Xi: "Say you're stupid and don't admit it, have you forgotten? When we were young, the seventh, eighth, and 12th years of Kangxi were all overwhelmed... You have a good memory. Listen to my mother, Kangxi's three, four When I was not born in the year, it was also a shock..."

Chunxi: "...you remember howling?!"

Yao Jing: ...So everyone is used to it.Master Kang, isn’t Father-in-Law willing to be crushed by you and fall out all day long?The father-in-law of the land is not... representing the people of the whole country to oppose you, right? (I want to face the wall crookedly!)
After all, they are people from the capital who have experienced the earthquake. After the earthquake, the house is not collapsed, the house is not collapsed, the people are fine, and they live as usual.If the house collapses and people have something to do, I have to endure it. The emperor is busy fighting and making his Qing Dynasty last forever. Seeing that the magnitude of the earthquake is not high, he has no time to pay attention to them for the time being.It took several days before someone came down to check the disaster.After all, it's not a good thing. It is estimated that Emperor Kangxi wanted to hypnotize himself to forget about it.

Fortunately, Wu Sangui passed away in August. It's really great. Finally, there is good news. It can't be said that the whole world is celebrating, at least the whole capital is excited.Everyone also left the more 'common' earthquakes behind, and began to celebrate the less common violent deaths of rebels.

In August, Yao Jing played in her mother-in-law's room. Now that she was able to run and jump, her range of activities would of course increase.Now she didn't even take a nap in her own room, and went directly to the big bed.The main reason is that Yuche has slept for a long time, and feels like he is shaking when he gets to the ground.Yao Jing had been lying in a hammock before, and it was similar to this one. As long as half the afternoon, she felt her bed was shaking when she went to bed at night.

In the afternoon, the two brothers came back from school.

Er Niang said: "How is school today? Are you being naughty?" The two got up, and Fu Dali said with a straight face: "Mr. Today is teaching "University". The master said that my son and younger brother have learned well. Yesterday's homework was also handed in, and the teacher circled several words with a pen on the calligraphy." Seeing Er Niang's face softened, Qingde said with a smile: "Er Niang, don't worry, we have counted, the current homework, the previous I also learned it when I was at home." Eniang said: "I learned it more carefully." Qingde stuck out his tongue in response.

Er Niang said to Fu Dali: "It's just right, the "Eternal Calendar" was issued in the palace, and I can't see it clearly. I asked someone to put it in your Ama's study room. You can take it later and talk about it." "Fu Dali complied, and the maid in the main house had a very winking look, and went to the inner study room to get the book.

Erniang turned to a certain page and asked Fu Dali what it meant.Fu Dali went to the Arhat couch and sat across the kang table from Er Niang, Qingde also moved his head next to him, listening to Fu Dali speak slowly, Qingde occasionally interrupted.Yao Jing was originally sitting next to E Niang, and she stretched her neck to watch.

This is an almanac, in traditional characters, I can't understand it at all ==!To be honest, she knows every word when it is opened, um, the good student Yao Jing knows the traditional Chinese characters, but when put together, she can read and understand very few of them. Not the same.

The three of you have finished discussing, but in fact, you just talked about recent events, and the rest will be read slowly or asked when you need it.Seeing that Yao Jing was also watching, Eniang smiled and said, "Little Niu Niu likes to read?" She then pointed to a simple word and asked her to recognize it: "This is the word 'A'." Yao Jing was happy, just right, also Then read it out.Qingde thought it was funny, he took the book and pointed at it, the characters Yao Jing knew long ago, and he also parroted the words and followed them.

Qingde was overjoyed, and took off the purse from his waist to tease her.Er Niang poked her finger on the forehead: "You're messing around again." Qingde said: "Your sister can learn quickly from me." Er Niang was annoyed and funny: "You were like this when you were young, you learned from your brother, I remembered it at the time, but I forgot it in a blink of an eye. A child has a great memory and a great forgetfulness." Qingde was not convinced: "I will come to see my sister tomorrow."

Yao Jing was secretly vigilant and couldn't act too strangely.

When Qing De came the next day, he didn't remember this incident, he just talked about interesting things in school, a certain classmate got slapped on the palm for teasing his master.Yao Jing secretly slandered her, but fortunately, she deliberately relied on Eniang not to leave.Er Niang said: "You are also naughty, aren't you?" Qingde was very unconvinced: "I have always been very honest, and there is no 'uncertain truth' at all." Ah Fu laughed: "The second master said yesterday that he would teach The second girl knows how to read, didn't she forget it now?" Qingde slid on Er Niang's body like a twisted candy to cheat, but was coughed by Fu Dali, and sat upright again, with a trace of a smile on his face. flush.

Coughing, Qingde said, "Who says I don't teach? My sister has wronged me." He poked Yao Jing's face again, stretched out his hand and scratched the word "A" on the table, and started the exam.Yao Jing paid attention to her sense of proportion, and deliberately answered a few wrong words, just pretending to remember five or six words with simple strokes.In Er Niang's opinion, such a result is not bad. Qingde has no experience in raising children, and said that his younger sister is a slow learner, so Er Niang pinched his ear: "It's a god with a photographic memory, your younger sister is already very fast." .”

Since then, Eniang has also consciously taught Yao Jing to read and write, but there is still no official teacher, and the textbooks are also very superficial. Judging from the traces, it is estimated that it is Fu Dali or Qingde's old tracing red book "Shangdaren Kong" Yiji and the like" with simple strokes.

Yao Jing 'learned' very quickly, Qingde taught with a great sense of accomplishment, if Yao Jing's paws were not so small, he would have gotten a pen and taught her how to write.This made Fu Dali greedy sometimes, coughing, flipping the pages of the book and teasing her with the Three Character Classic.

Er Niang was angry and funny: "Your younger sister is still young, and don't forget that there is also the eldest sister." Qingde pouted: "Eldest sister doesn't need us to teach, she can learn it by herself." Purely Spread rumors!The truth was teased before, but he didn't learn it as fast as this younger sister. At that time, Qing Debi was not sure about the truth. He was impatient and didn't persevere. Now he has learned the tricks well. Qing De is not happy when he mentions this.

Fu Dali glared at him and said: "What Er Niang taught was that we were only playing with the second younger sister. The eldest sister Er Niang pointed out that someone started to teach sewing. We are not easy to disturb." Er Niang said: "That's true."

The eldest sister is indeed starting to learn some simple female workers. Although she is not her own, this mother-in-law is still doing a good job.The configuration of Yiying is the same as that of his own daughter, and what should be taught is not neglected.It's just that I haven't moved the scissors yet, and I can't draw patterns by myself.Because of my young age, I can't do fine work, so I only learn some simple ones, and I also need to prevent needles from pricking my hands.The nurse who taught needlework asked her to do some simple work, and at the same time taught her about color matching.Yao Jing still can't learn such a course, her little paws are even more inflexible, the courses are inconsistent, and there are fewer opportunities to meet each other.

I can't complain that some people say that the relationship between brothers and sisters in the big family is indifferent, and they don't see each other very often. Relationships also need to be cultivated, okay? !

In fact, this is not true, at least the Fu Dali brothers are close to Yao Jing, especially Qingde, as they spend more and more time together, they are also very close to each other.But Yao Jing always felt that Qingde treated her more like teasing kittens and puppies.For example, now, Qingde said maliciously: "Little girl, can my second brother teach you how to write your own name?"

Yao Jing nodded, of course she had to, she had already forgotten what her official code name was here, if one day Standard Dad came back and called her by her name, but she didn’t respond, it would be embarrassing.Qingde had been prepared for a long time, spread out the paper on the kang table, picked up a pen and wrote two neat lowercase strokes one stroke at a time.Yao Jing recognized the word "Shujia", and she could honestly say that Qingde's handwriting was pretty good.

Then, her conscience told her that Qingde is a bastard!
These two words are so complicated that they are beyond the control ability of a one-and-a-half-year-old child, okay? !Qingde grabbed Yao Jing's hand and started to write until the ink was blurred.Nimajia character with eight horizontal lines!A stick can be strung into a string of Malatang!Let the little tender paws of this year and four months draw eight stripes with a brush on the length of two centimeters!Too bastard, is there wood? ! ! !

While writing, Qingde said, "Hey, when you first learn to write, you should write bigger. It's easier that way. After you learn it, you can write smaller..."

Fu Dali couldn't stand it anymore, reached out for his pen and walked away, glared at Qingde: "I'm starting to tease my sister!" Then Wen Yan said to Yao Jing: "It's fine for the little girl to know these two words, and I will teach them next year." How are you? When the time comes, it’s fine if I want my elder brother to teach me, or I’m fine if I want to ask Mrs. Erniang.” Yao Jing pressed her twitching forehead and nodded in agreement.

Then stretched out two tender arms: "Big brother, hug." Give Qingde a bald back of the head.

Er Niang saw that Yao Jing was learning things faster than ordinary children (after all, she was an old cucumber painted with green paint), so she also found a servant woman who could read a few words and read "San Zi Jing" to her.Er Niang's meaning is very clear: "Fu Dali, Qingde, you two still have official homework to do, so it's fine to come back and talk to your sister every day. But it's not good to delay your homework for your sister, you Ama It’s hard to talk when you’re back.”

So Yao Jing began to recite "Three Character Classic", "Thousand Character Classic", "Hundred Surnames".They all rhyme, and they were originally children's books, and Yao Jing can understand the meanings in them, and it's easy to remember. For example, the passage about historical dynasties in "San Zi Jing" is very easy to memorize after understanding.Then, here comes the problem, Master Kang is not surnamed Kang nor is he called Shifu, but his name is Xuanye, and the first sentence of "Thousand Characters" "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang" is to be avoided.Xuan character is barely a commonly used word, and sometimes people don't pay much attention to it when they say it occasionally.

This day Qingde heard it again when he was about to test his younger sister, and Yao Jing remembered that this was a troublesome place to 'avoid'.This mysterious character should be pronounced as the sound of the word "Yuan", and the last point should be missing when writing.After finishing speaking, Qingde looked at his younger sister with round eyes: "You don't understand after I say it, you are still so young. Remember, it's enough to read Chengyuan. I will tell you later."

Yao Jing: ... I clearly remember that there is no need to shy away from a single word in a two-character name!Could it be that the taboo has been upgraded because the user is the emperor? !Avoid your sister, avoid!

The mother over there said: "I almost forgot, instead of teaching her those documents, it's better to tell her these useful things, it's better than being too busy when she gets older. She is still young and can't start learning needlework like a big girl." , I let you teach me carelessly. Now that I have taught you, it is better to say more useful things.”

According to her point of view, even if you study, you should study things like "Four Books for Women".Although she is a Mongol, her natal family returned to the Qing Dynasty relatively early. She followed the customs all the way, lived in the capital for some years, and met the husband of a standard feudal man, and she was closer to the so-called traditional women in thought.

Yao Jing is still not aware of this.Now she just wants to know what year she was in Kangxi, although knowing it will not help her as she is not familiar with the history of the Qing Dynasty.But it's like always carrying a watch with your mobile phone when you go out, and checking the time from time to time, even if you simply know that it is [-]:[-], you feel a little safe in your heart.

She soon found out, because her sister's birthday was coming up.It was Fu Dali who said, "Big sister is... years old this year. Four or five?"

Er Niang smiled: "As a brother, I can't even remember this? This year is the 17th year of Kangxi. Your eldest sister was born on the third day of September in the 13th year of Kangxi. She is one year old when she lands, and one year old when Chinese New Year is born. This is her sixth birthday." .”

Yao Jing was listening with pricked ears. Finally, she knew that it was the 17th year of Kangxi.Sister!God, do you dare to be cruel to me again?It's been a year and five months before I know which sky I'm living in. You're so cruel!
