Chapter 199 The Cousin Under the Fence (8)

The ladies who were sneaking away from Nanny Jin also laughed and responded, "Sister Mu's sewing skills are the most beautiful, but I haven't seen sister Zhu/sister doing needlework much."

Zhu Jiayi smiled lightly and said: "Sister Mu always persuades people that women's needlework is the main business, why can she read poetry and books, and talk about all kinds of flowers, grass and tea, it seems that our sisters are ignorant.

But, don't sister Mu know what the ancients said about a woman's lack of talent is virtue? "

The ladies in the house asked one after another: "My good sister, tell us quickly, what is it?"

"The original text says this: A man who has virtue is a talent, and a woman who has no talent is a virtue.

Later generations further commented that women who are literate and able to understand righteousness are definitely virtuous, but they are rare; Literacy is better if you keep your clumsiness and peace of mind.A woman's lack of talent is virtue.It can be said that.

However, people in later generations often take it out of context, which humiliates this sentence. "

It was rare for Mu Shihua to turn red, as if the dirt in her heart had been spread out in the sun.

And those young ladies suddenly realized, and said rather annoyed and frustrated: "Sister, we sisters really dare not tell people that we can read and write in the future, so as not to make a joke."

"It's not too late to work hard now," Zhu Jiayi pointed to the book behind her, "The world is so unfair to us girls, let us be bound in this palm-sized courtyard, there are not many places to go, and how many books can we see in a lifetime?" How many strange things can you hear about the scenery?

It's better to read more books, no matter what, can broaden our horizons, the book has its own golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu. "

They were a little moved, smiled and went to the study unceremoniously, everyone picked a book, and looked around the table.

Zhu’s collection of books covers a wide variety of books, such as astronomy, geography, handwriting, biography, opera, medicine, etc., all of which are rare and rare in the market.

Everyone looked at it all afternoon without knowing it, raised their heads and rubbed their sore eyes, only to realize when the maids held the lamps in their palms.

They laughed and laughed and ate together before saying goodbye.

As soon as he went out, he saw Du Ziman poking his head.

"Sisters, why did you get together so late today? Although we are at home, the servants are all asleep. It's not safe after all. I'll send the sisters back one by one, so I can watch the moonlight!" He looked strange He made a bow to someone, and then told Jin Han to send him out, and said: "My sister went back and told my sister Zhu that you must close the doors and windows when you sleep at night. Recently, a flower picker came out of nowhere in the capital.

This person is really hateful, he actually said that he wants to pick all the good-looking women in Kyoto.

Seven or eight poor sisters have already suffered..."

"Bah, bah, where did you hear these swear words, stop quickly, don't dirty our ears.

What is the place of our Duke's Mansion, where can those young people come and go at will? "

"We sisters rarely go out, how many of us know our names?"

Du Ziman scratched his head, "That's right, but sisters, you should be vigilant and ask a few maids to accompany you!" Having said this, his complexion turned pale, and he suddenly remembered that recently he had often chanted wishes to his sister in front of his friends. .

He seemed to praise his younger sister's appearance to the sky, and he regretted that her temper was spoiled.

Du Ziman looked at Yinyan Pavilion anxiously, he didn't have much to say after all, he just sent the girls back in a hurry, and then found the guards in the mansion, reminded them to be more vigilant, and even took out the money he had worked so hard to hide. With the private house saved by the girl next to her.

"Who is outside? Why did I hear the man's voice? Could it be the one who is full again?" Nurse Jin came out and asked, twisting her freshly washed hair.

Zhu Jiayi couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled, this Nanny Jin was very aggressive outside, acting like a dean.

Having gotten to know each other in private, she is an exceptionally interesting person.

The man's name in Du Guogong's mansion was originally nothing, but it changed in her mouth.

Especially those of the Zizi generation, Du Zian from the eldest room = according to the stomach; Du Ziwei = five internal organs (belly, stomach); Du Zishang from the second room = belly; Du Zida = big belly;

Jin Han also nodded with a smile: "It's Man Wuye. He doesn't know where he heard that there are flower-picking robbers in the capital, who specifically harm pretty girls. Let's close the doors and windows when we sleep!"

Nanny Jin frowned, and said angrily: "This kind of villain is just relying on his own merits, and stealing money from corrupt officials can still be admired as a grand thief. It's extremely bad to attack delicate women like this!

One woman, one life. "

The faces of the people in the room were not very good-looking.

"This man who is full of food is too ignorant of the affairs of the world, sometimes it is a bad thing to close the doors and windows.

These flower pickers like to blow smoke into the house. "Nurse Jin walked up and down the room, "Don't take this seriously. There was a case of a flower picker in Kyoto more than ten years ago. The thief killed more than a hundred people within half a year. Girl, it is said that she ruined all the good-looking girls in the city.

The officials did not catch him, so he was allowed to escape and go to other places to continue committing crimes!
During that time, young girls died of illness every now and then..."

Zhu Jiayi pursed her lips, "There are girls and women in our yard, if the bad guys come, they won't be able to resist at all.

Tomorrow, you little boy, go find some cactus, mousetrap, honey, and sesame oil.Let's decorate the outside of the doors and windows and on the roof beams! "

The big guys thought that the flower picker was far away from them, and the probability of appearing was extremely high, but they still followed Zhu Jiayi's instructions seriously. Every evening, they arranged the cactus and mousetrap, and painted a thick layer of paint on the roof and beams. Sesame oil, honey with a thick consistency is placed wherever the bamboo tube can be extended to spray mist.

As usual, Zhu Jiayi wished she could read all the books, and firmly engraved them in her mind, so that she could learn and use them flexibly.

Recently, in teahouses, restaurants and other places, the most talked about topic is whose girl has suffered.

Everyone hated the criminals and gritted their teeth, sympathized with the murdered girl, but in their hearts they inevitably despised and loathed this kind of woman who had lost her chastity.

A young man in washed white clothes, with a knife on his waist, the knife is shiny and thick.

He looks very handsome, like a porcelain vase with a cold light, mixed with dignity and murderous aura.

In the restaurant hall, which was full of seats, he was the only one who ordered two dishes, a plate of steamed buns and a bowl of porridge. There were three empty chairs around, but no one had the courage to come forward to share the table with him.

"Tsk tsk, look who this is?"
