Chapter 28

"Hello, Eldest Sister and Second Sister!" Mao Tongtong greeted the two of them with a bright smile.

The Chen sisters looked at the bottom of the flowerpot on Mao Tongtong's feet together.

"Third sister really works hard!" Chen Ruzhu couldn't help boasting.

Chen Ruyu curled her lips, and said with a bit of sneer: "With your aptitude, you can only use this stupid method."

"Ruyu! What are you talking about!" Chen Ruzhu scolded with a frown.

It's just that Chen Ruyu wasn't afraid, she snorted coldly and turned her head to take the maid to leave first.

Mao Tongtong smiled and said: "A certain person has good qualifications, but he didn't even get a word of praise from Mammy Ai!"

"You!" Chen Ruyu turned her head and stared at Mao Tongtong angrily.

Mao Tongtong raised his head slightly, passed Chen Ruyu and left the courtyard first.

"Sister, look at her!" Chen Ruyu stamped her feet angrily.

Chen Ruzhu also frowned slightly, this cousin didn't seem to be as docile as when she first came here!Could this be her true nature?

"If it weren't for what you said before, she wouldn't have said that." Chen Ruzhu still said Chen Ruyu.

"Eldest sister, why are you defending an outsider!" Chen Ruyu dissatisfied: "I'll tell Er Niang, you bully me with her! Hmph!" Chen Ruyu left in a huff!

Chen Ruzhu shook her head helplessly.This younger sister is really spoiled, she can't hold her breath for a little thing!How good it is to marry someone in the future!Do you still come back and ask Er Niang to make the decision?

The so-called calligraphy class is really practicing calligraphy by yourself!
After all, the Chen family is not those nobles, and they did not hire a separate female teacher to teach culture classes for the Chen family sisters.It's just that Chen Lingyun's master taught them to recognize some characters by the way, and then gave the copybooks to follow and trace, and then gave them some pointers.Therefore, the handwriting of the sisters of the Chen family is very ordinary.

When Mao Tongtong came, she was thinking that she might be laughed at by Chen Ruyu again!I can't walk well, and I can't write well!
But after reading the words written by the Chen sisters, Mao Tongtong immediately breathed a sigh of relief.It's really rare that her handwriting is even better!

At this moment, she couldn't help being grateful to her elder brother Mao Mingxuan.His handwriting is very good, and I can't bear to read Mao Tongtong's bad handwriting.So from time to time, I will pull Mao Tongtong to practice calligraphy.Accumulated over time, somewhat effective.

Chen Ruyu was somewhat complacent in her heart, thinking that Mao Tongtong came from a small place, and her family would definitely not teach her to read and write.I didn't expect to get a compliment from the master when I made a move today!It couldn't help but make her feel even more depressed.

And Chen Ruzhu was a little more curious about Mao Tongtong.In the morning, I saw Mao Tongtong still staggering when he was walking, and he couldn't even stand still.In just two hours, he looked decent, and he came to class wearing the bottom of a flower pot together, and walked steadily.

Looking at her handwriting now, I know that this cousin is not a showman.It's not like my aunt said I don't know anything.

It seems that my aunt's words are modest!Perhaps among the three of them, this cousin still has the best future!

No matter what the Chen sisters were thinking, Mao Tongtong only concentrated on practicing her own calligraphy.

When she first came here, she hated writing with a brush.She didn't even use a pen in her previous life, writing with a brush is really torture!

But as a modern person, or a highly educated modern person, it is completely unbearable for her to be an illiterate who cannot read or write!
So after she passed through and adapted to the life of the Qing Dynasty, she began to learn to recognize traditional characters and learn to write calligraphy.

It's just a painful process.Several times she wanted to give up!Anyway, there were many women who couldn't read in ancient times, so it's not surprising that she couldn't write!
But in the end she persevered.It's just that I fished for three days and posted on the net for two days, and my calligraphy has never been well-known.

People are afraid of competitors.Now standing under the eaves of Chen's family, thinking about how Chen Ruyu always looked down on her, Mao Tongtong wanted to fight in his heart!

If she was better than Chen Ruyu in every way, wouldn't Chen Ruyu be so angry?Thinking about that scene, she felt very motivated!

The handwriting class is not long, only half an hour.After all, the daughter's family does not have high requirements for characters.Being able to read and write is already great.

After a quarter of an hour's rest, there will be female red.

Regardless of whether you will be a concubine or a concubine in the future, as long as you are an ancient woman, this is a must-have skill!
Not to mention making clothes by myself in the future, but it is still indispensable to embroider a purse for my husband, make a pair of socks for my in-laws and honor my filial piety.

This time, the Su family specially invited the embroidered lady.However, there are not as many embroiderers in Beijing as there are in Jiangnan.Besides, the Chen family's financial resources are limited, and it is impossible to spend a lot of money to invite them.So in Mao Tongtong's view, the master embroiderer of the Chen family is far worse than the one she was in Yangzhou.

When the embroiderer saw that Mao Tongtong was embroidering double-sided embroidery, she was immediately surprised!

"Girls have learned this? Then I can't teach girls!"

"I'm just getting started, and I'm still a long way off!" Mao Tongtong said with a smile.

"Girls don't have to be modest! If you can learn double-sided embroidery, you can see that the girl has a high level of understanding in this area! It's just me, the master said that I'm not good enough to learn double-sided embroidery." This embroiderer is a real person, her eyes are full of admiration.

Chen Ruyu's face turned black!It's okay to practice calligraphy just now!Embroidery can't compare now!This feeling of being overwhelmed by others made her feel extremely aggrieved.

Chen Ruzhu was surprised again!Unexpectedly, Mao Tongtong's embroidery skills are even admired by the embroiderer master hired by her family!This cousin is really hiding something!

So the embroidery class turned into a master embroiderer asking Mao Tongtong for the technique of double-sided embroidery. Instead, the Chen sisters practiced it by themselves!
Mao Tongtong didn't expect things to turn out like this.She embroiders double-sided embroidery because she already knows what the embroidery mother taught her!But if she doesn't practice double-sided embroidery, she might be able to learn it by hand when she returns after a year.That's why I thought about practicing by myself!But I don't want to be pretended to be a master by her inadvertently!
But seeing Chen Ruyu's angry look, Mao Tongtong was in a good mood!This feeling of pretending to be a master is quite cool!

When the three of them finished their embroidery class and arrived at the small courtyard in the southwest corner, Mammy Ai was already waiting there.

"The three girls come one by one! Walk from the east end of the yard to the west end and it's over! The old slave sees that half a day has passed, do the girls still remember what they taught in the morning?" Mammy Ai said.

Chen Ruzhu was the eldest sister, so naturally she was the first.She already has a good foundation, and she learned solidly in the morning, so she will walk over calmly, and her posture is already very good.

The second one is Chen Ruyu.When she walked halfway, she didn't know if there was something on the road, and she sprained a little, but she straightened her body quickly and did not fall.

The third one is naturally Mao Tongtong.She was still a little nervous, took a deep breath, straightened her body and took a step.
