Qu Jingxi was six years old, Gu Jingyun directly threw people to study in the enlightenment class that he brought, while Qu Weizhen followed Li Baolu to study at home.

   Unlike her younger brother who only reads the Enlightenment Book, Qu Weizhen has a lot to learn, and because she is very sensitive to numbers, Li Baolu taught her from the simplest techniques.

  Qu Weizhen studied very seriously. She could finish almost all the homework assigned by Li Baolu very quickly. At this time, she would go to watch embroidery of red peach and green ling, or go to the kitchen to watch the cook cook.

  Li Baolu understood when she saw it occasionally, and called someone to her side and said, "I know you want to learn these crafts, because compared to reading, literacy and math, these two crafts are more practical and easier to make a living."

She took the person to the yard, took out a large sea bowl and placed it beside a large water tank, and took out two open bamboo tubes, one large and one small, and placed them on the sea bowl and the water tank, saying: "Now you are like the same Tail fish, this bamboo tube is the process and difficulty of your learning. The bamboo tube leading to the water tank is very small and very difficult. It may take several times the time to reach the sea bowl, but once the water reaches the water tank, it belongs to Yours, this whole water tank is your world. On the contrary, it is very simple for you to go to the sea bowl through this big bamboo tube. You can quickly get the water to survive, but you only have the space of this sea bowl at the most in your life. ."

"Weizhen, this water tank is the knowledge I want you to learn, and the sea bowl is the craft you want to learn from the bottom of your heart." Li Baolu poured the water from the sea bowl into the water tank, "Look, put the sea bowl The water in the tank is poured into the tank, and the tank has more water, but it is not full. This means that when you reach the tank, you can accommodate more water in the sea bowl, and you can learn more because the tank This space can hold a lot. But the sea bowl is different, it is full, and when you reach the sea bowl and want to turn the water tank upside down, either the water overflows, or you come out of the bowl and fall to the ground. "

   If she focuses on cooking or embroidery, her highest achievement in the future will be to become a royal chef or a generation of embroidery masters.

   Then, a piece of work costs a thousand taels of silver, but it takes a few months, or even longer, or stays in one place to be a cook?

  Li Baolu hopes that her path will be wider and she will go further.

   These crafts can be learned, but they are not essential.

   Qu Weizhen didn't understand it too well, but she knew that the teacher was for her own good, she nodded after thinking for a moment: "Teacher, I will listen to you in the future."

   "You don't have to listen to me," Li Baolu laughed. "You have to think for yourself. If you can convince me, I will agree with your ideas."

   "You can't chew too much. You don't have to worry about studying. You are not yet nine years old. You have time, so don't worry."

   Qu Weizhen's eyes were red, and she whispered, "But the sisters in our village got married when they were thirteen..." So how could you not be in a hurry?

   How many years does she have?

Li Baolu frowned slightly, "Women should not get married until after they are married. Marrying too early is not good for your health, and it will be a difficult time to give birth. Don't worry, teacher and mother, with me here, your parents won't let you out too early. "

   Li Baolu is not worried at all about this, Xiaobao is also their disciple, and the pair of Ernu will definitely listen to them.

However, thinking of the three girls who were still in Qujia Village, Li Baolu pointedly said to her: "Weizhen, your parents prefer sons to daughters. There are too many differences in understanding. Their thoughts are also passed down from generation to generation, and it may be difficult to change, but as long as you persevere in beating and passing on, even if you can’t change their thoughts, you can still make them suspicious. I think of your sister’s Life might be better for those girls in your village."

   Don't they think girls are losers? Then tell them that a well-raised girl outside can also make money to support the family.

   Don't they think it is only right for parents to drown their daughters? Then tell them it's against the law and against the world.

  Daughters can also be held in the palms of their parents. Once they will be angry, twice they will not believe it, but three times a hundred times or even a thousand times?

  Since a lie can come true after telling a lot of lies, why can’t they penetrate deep into their hearts and become their new cognition if it’s not a lie?

  Li Baolu taught Qu Weizhen new skills, so she happily went to chat with Master.

   She felt that Master's whereabouts in the past two days was a bit strange.

  Bai Yitang was sitting cross-legged on the futon to carve something. When he saw his apprentice jumping up without saying hello, he subconsciously put away the statue in his hand. Fortunately, he just held back at the critical moment and continued to carve as if nothing had happened.

  Li Baolu looked up curiously, "Master, is this a doll for Niuniu?"

   Bai Yitang nodded solemnly.

  Li Baolu sighed, "Master, you are very good at swordsmanship. You can see how thin your clothes are when you look at them. It's much better than those Trojan horses that I gave me when I was a child."

   Every year on Li Baolu and Gu Jingyun's birthdays, Bai Yitang had nothing to give, so he carved all kinds of things for them, such as wooden knives, wooden swords, wooden horses, wooden tops, etc.

   In the past, Li Baolu thought that Master was very attentive, but now compared with the wood carvings, the ones he gave them in the past were simply shoddy.

   Li Baolu said jealously: "Master, I am your apprentice, dear!"

   She stared at the wood carving with sharp eyes, and pouted, "You are too kind to Niuniu, but this wood carving looks familiar."

  Bai Yitang pushed her head away and waved his hand impatiently: "How old are you, how old is Niuniu? You are not too embarrassed to be jealous of her, go ahead."

Li Baolu touched it and glared angrily, "Master, tell me honestly what you've been doing these two days and what do you want to do? I don't believe you would stay at home and carve wood carvings all day, except to pick up Niuniu for breakfast. ."

   You have to know that since she took over as the head of the Sect, whether it was on her way or taking a break, Bai Yitang always practiced her to the death.

  But it has been three days since she returned to the capital, and her master didn't even come up with any bad tricks. It was simply abnormal.

  There are monsters in the abnormal, even if his master is old and patient, it is impossible to revolve around a child all day, so there must be something tricky!

  Li Baolu stared at Bai Yitang, "Master, tell me honestly, do you want to kidnap Niuniu to do something bad?"

   "Let me tell you, Niuniu is a child that my uncle and aunt can get easily. Don't look at her alive and kicking now. She's not as good as a normal child, so you can't bring her along..."

   It's so noisy!

  Bai Yitang slammed people out in disgust, "Shut up, you are about to catch up with the old monk Jishao. If you keep talking, I will send you to be a companion with Jissa."

  Li Baolu immediately shut up.

   "Your mother-in-law is coming to the house for dinner at night, so hurry up to the kitchen and stare, don't come here to disturb me."

  Li Baolu couldn't help but ask again, "How did you know my mother-in-law was coming for dinner? Why didn't I know?"

"It was agreed in Qin Mansion last night, she doesn't worry you want to come and have a look," Bai Yitang waved his hand impatiently: "Hurry up, hurry up, I shouldn't have been soft-hearted and accepted a female apprentice, I should have accepted a female apprentice. male apprentice."

   "And then spend the rest of your life working in Qiongzhou, farming and fishing?" Seeing Bai Yitang raising his palm, Li Baolu hurriedly ran away, daring not to provoke him again.

   Bai Yitang breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the wooden sculpture covered by his sleeve, and frowned in distress.

  If the carving is too similar, it seems that it is difficult to explain. The steps are too big, and I don’t know if it will scare people.

   This wood carving was really given to Niuniu, Bai Yitang didn't lie, but he wanted Qin Wenyin to pass it on.

   Qin Wenyin came alone in the Qin family's carriage in the evening. The family of four and three apprentices ate together. Qin Wenyin went for a walk in the backyard with her son and daughter-in-law to digest food.

  Gu Jingyun and the others wanted to go to Qin Mansion for dinner tonight, because Qin Wenyin wanted to come here and they temporarily decided to eat at home.

  Gu Jingyun vaguely felt that his mother would come because of Bai Yitang. He didn't want to interfere, so he only accompanied her quietly.

Qin Wenyin took the initiative to mention it, took the hands of the two children and smiled with relief: "You have always been sensible, filial and obedient, mother has nothing to worry about, just a little, don't put too much pressure on yourself, we know that you are both good boy."

  Gu Jingyun & Li Baolu:  …

   Li Baolu's face was blank, why did her mother-in-law think of feeding them chicken soup for the soul?

  Gu Jingyun glanced at Bai Yitang, who was following behind with his hands behind his back. What reason did the old man use to deceive people?

   Gu Jingyun lowered his head, paused, and said, "Don't worry, mother, Baolu and I will be fine, and so will you."

   Qin Wenyin's smile grew wider, and she patted the hands of the two of them. After looking up at the moon, he said, "It's getting late, mother will go back first."

   "Mother, you should stay here at night, the room has been reserved for you."

   Qin Wenyin shook her head, "Niuniu's child recognizes people at night, so I have to tell her mother a story. If I don't go back, she'll keep asking. It's not far away anyway."

  Li Baolu turned around and said, "Then I'll take you back."

   Gu Jingyun grabbed her, and Li Baolu looked up at him suspiciously.

   "I'll deliver it," Bai Yitang glanced at Gu Jingyun, turned around and said to Qin Wenyin, "Just in time, I'm going to the street to buy something."

   Qin Wenyin hesitated, "Is it too much trouble for Hero Bai? Actually, I have a driver, and I'm in the inner city..."

   "There may be danger in the imperial city, does your coachman know kung fu?"

   Qin Wenyin was silent.

   "Let's go, I'll take you there and I'll be back soon. I'll be back in a quarter of an hour."

   Also, the carriage had to make a turn, and Bai Yitang flew straight back, saving time and effort, and not causing traffic jams.

   Qin Wenyin pursed her lips and smiled, nodded in response.

   Bai Yitang took Qin Wenyin into the car, and the two sat in the car together, and the atmosphere immediately became a little strange.

   Qin Wenyin thought with hindsight that this was the first time they were alone in the carriage.

  Before going north, Bai Yitang sat in the carriage to drive the car, Qin Wenyin and Niuniu sat in the car, or the three of them sat on the carriage. This was the first time the two of them stayed in such a small confined space.

   Qin Wenyin was a little uncomfortable being watched by Bai Yitang.

   Bai Yitang took out a box from his sleeve and handed it to her.

   Qin Wenyin took it in a daze, "What is this?"

   "Giving something to Niuniu to hold her to sleep at night, so that she won't be afraid."

   Niuniu is a little deity. If you are a little scared, you will not sleep well all night, and always cry at night.

   Qin Wenyin's eyes brightened when she heard the words, "What is it? Can I see it?"

   Seeing Bai Yitang nodded, she opened the door wide, and she was a little surprised when she saw a wood carving inside.

   Bai Yitang's mellow laughter whispered in his ears, "Do you like it?"

   Qin Wenyin's face turned even redder, almost dripping blood.
