Chapter 28

Wang's mother came to Li Hanyao to serve him not only because Li Zhuohang wanted, but also was trusted by Mrs. Li during her lifetime. She had been with the old lady for decades and had her own vision and ability. Since she got on the boat, she began to teach Li Hanyao.

Li Hanyao wants to listen at the bow of the boat.

She said the bow of the boat was bright.

Studying on the picturesque landscape corridor is indeed bright.

With strong confidence in each generation of the Li family, and expectations for the old lady Li's grandson, Wang's mother began teaching.

Knowledge about the textile industry, from the changes and application of weaving raw materials, to the development of textile machines, to the current booming textile industry weather, the rise and decline of famous textile families in history, etc., is talked a day, and the rest of the time is mainly spent on understanding specific fabrics and learning needlework.

This is inevitable to learn painting, female red.

Mother Wang watched the girl paint carefully, her eyes wider and wider - what was the painting? Is it the way she gave her?

Li Hanyao turned her head and saw her expression. She felt uncomfortable, but she pretended not to care on her face and said calmly: "I am only five years old. You can't be impatient, you have to teach me slowly. Dad said that children should not pull seedlings and encourage growth."

Mother Wang laughed dryly: "What the master said is."

Li Hanyao lowered her head again, and she was busy drawing and drawing, but she still didn't have any idle mouth. She clearly stated that Mother Wang: "Dad said I haven't gotten enlightened yet. When one day I get enlightened, the water will be the river. What is the drawing."

These confident words encouraged Mother Wang.

She smiled and said, "My master's words are reasonable."

The girl is only five years old. Look at her calmness, she is worthy of being the old lady’s granddaughter!

Li Hanyao has finished drawing soon.

Mother Wang picked it up and looked at it-

What exactly is this?

Li Hanyao has already started painting the second one.

She asked casually: "Mom Wang, what are you doing when you are five years old?"

Wang's mother was stagnant - she was playing with mud at the age of five, sucking her fingers and looking at her mouth. She just watched others eat, but she learned to do simple housework. But she was not as straightforward as a girl, and she was not as good as a girl who could recite a lot of books.

She seemed to understand the girl’s implication and smiled and said, “I was very stupid when I was a child, and I was not as smart as a girl. Can I talk about this flower?”

Li Hanyao said: "Okay."

After taking the painting, he chattered: what material the flower is used, what loom is used, how to weave it, how to move the warp and weft threads, and it actually repeated the content Wang’s mother just taught.

Mother Wang was surprised. This was pretty good.

Li Hanyao was very dissatisfied: I hate it, why can’t I draw it well? It’s so simple. This hand is really disobedient!

Learning to be a girl is also a chore.

There are no ants to skew on the boat.

Li Hanyao worked hard to sew the fabric carefully and practiced the needle method. The thread was pulled too tightly, and the fabric was piled up together. After collecting the needle, it was a big knot.

Mother Wang said, "Miss, the seam is too tight."

Li Hanyao said with a slight verbal statement: "If you don't sew tighter, it will be easy to break."

Mother Wang was already used to her many reasons and smiled and said, "Miss is saying very well. Girl, let's practice sewing firmly first, then practice flatness, which looks good."

Li Hanyao said: "That's how I think."

Mother Wang: “…”

Li Hanyao is so familiar with her expression. Since she has written, painted and learned needlework, everyone she has seen has an expression that doesn't know what to say. She is not worried or discouraged, and is very confident in impressing Wang's mother.

The maid brought the tea and Li Hanyao said, "Let Mother Wang eat it first. Mother serves grandmother, you must respect her and not be contradicted. Mom, I will be filial to you every day, give you silver and spend money, and support you when you grow up." This is what my father told me, and she expressed it in her own language, innocent and warm.

Mother Wang was instantly hit by the center, her eyes were hot, her lips were trembling, and she couldn't say the complete words, so she had to "Hey, hey!"

She is just a servant, how dare she be a "filial" girl? She knows it's the words of a child, but why is she so moved?

From then on, Li Hanyao was her lifeblood.

...

After the morning class was over, Wang's mother took Li Hanyao and her homework to meet the master and wife, and reported to the girl's study situation.

After seeing it, Li Zhuohang said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mother Wang."

Mother Wang understood in her heart: the master and wife knew the girl’s foundation very well, so she was so calm.

Jiang Yuzhen said, "Mom, go and rest. The master teaches the girl in the afternoon."

Mother Wang said, "Yes, madam."

After saying that, he left the cabin.

Li Zhuohang then asked Li Hanyao with a smile: "Yaoer, how have you learned?"

Li Hanyao pursed her mouth, lowered her head, and whispered: "The flowers in my heart are not like this." But the drawing was beyond recognition.

She doesn't have to hide herself in front of her parents.

Li Zhuohang was silent for a moment and smiled and said, "Silly child, you are only five years old. If you can draw whatever you think, then you will not become a god? How can you achieve your studies overnight? The so-called achievement in one go is to achieve success in one step. This is impossible. If you can recite "Encourage Learning", you should remember two sentences: Therefore, without accumulating small steps, you cannot reach a thousand miles; without accumulating small streams, you cannot become a river and sea. The meaning of these two sentences has been told to you. You must proceed step by step and persevere to achieve great success."

Jiang Yuzhen also said: "Others are only five years old when they are in vain."

Li Hanyao looked up and tried to smile, saying, "Well, I practice more, I can always practice well." She forced a laugh, as if she was very excited, but her eyes turned red, revealing the frustration and frustration she suffered in her heart.

Li Zhuohang's heart tightened and felt very uncomfortable.

In the afternoon, he personally taught his daughter to practice calligraphy.

Li Hanyao is clear about the posture of holding the pen, the use of wrist force, and the order of strokes, but what he lacks is only practice.

Li Zhuohang practiced with his daughter.

Li Hanyao lay on several tables and wrote one after another. While writing, she thought: Diligence can make up for the clumsy, and stupid birds fly first. I endured hardships like this, and sooner or later I could be able to write freely, just like Liang Xinming, making my father and mother happy and proud of me.

The manuscript paper on the floor continues to rise.

Jiang came out of the cabin and went to the bow of the boat. When he saw his daughter holding a pen, his wrist-hanging hand trembled and obviously exerted too much force. He was shocked and hurriedly stopped her and refused to write anymore, so as not to hurt her muscles and bones, but was stopped by Li Zhuohang.

Li Zhuohang endured the soreness in his eyes and whispered: "Wait a minute."

He did not want to pull out seedlings to help grow and was eager to achieve success, but instead took this opportunity to train his daughter's will and let her continue to grow in frustration.

After a while, he stepped forward and said to Li Hanyao, "Yaoer, I'll be here to learn calligraphy. Dad will teach you how to play chess." You don't have to keep your wrists hanging on your wrists, just so you can let Li Hanyao take a break, and you can come to study in a while.

Li Hanyao said happily: "Oh.

He hurriedly put down his pen.

Compared to practicing calligraphy, she prefers to play chess. She has thought about it in her mind and just move it manually, picking up a piece of chess piece, which is not as difficult as writing.

Jiang hurriedly directed the maid to set up chess tools, and the father and daughter sat down on the side of the shorter table and started playing chess.
