    Xu Yu listened to the conversation between his grandparents and kept the garden in mind, but did not dare to leave.  ¡À, After sitting dully for a long time, he glanced at his younger brother who seemed to be full of confidence. Xu Yu curled his lips slightly and said to himself that his grandfather wanted to change the powerful family into a scholarly family with thousands of years of history. Don't you know? Ordinary local prominent families force the younger members of the family.  Studying hard since childhood is just for the sake of having talented people serve as officials from generation to generation, so that they can continue the family tradition and continue to provide future generations with a study environment without worries, and the cycle continues.  Of course, the imperial examination is the only way to show the family's reputation, but to truly make a family praised by the world and become a distinguished family among famous families, a famous family among famous families, it depends on whether there are articles and classics that will last forever, and whether a certain generation can be culturally important.  Leaving important footprints in this regard may go down in history.  Therefore, Xu Yu knew very well that even if the Xu family could succeed in being a scholar, a scholar, a scholar, and a scholar for several consecutive generations, and have officials all over the court, it would still not be enough to become a prominent cultural family respected by the world, because it is unlikely that a male member of the Xu family would become a truly famous Confucian.  , gifted scholar, master, master, master, poet.  This seems to be certain, at least not in Xu Yu's generation. Therefore, he does not want to waste time on being an official, so he might as well concentrate on studying music at home. If he can make a small success, it will be enough to leave a legacy for the Xu clan.  A bold stroke of color.  Xu Yu¡¯s thoughts are not without purpose. China has been known as the ¡°Land of Ritual and Music¡± since ancient times. Before the Han Dynasty, music played a very important role and status in the development of personality, cultural life, and etiquette.  Confucius once said that "prosperity comes from poetry, establishes itself from etiquette, and succeeds from music".  Music and "poetry" in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods are indistinguishable from each other, that is, music.  By the Han Dynasty, music began to be looked down upon. Ink painting and calligraphy were respected by the literati and bureaucrats. Musicians had little political status at that time.  In the Han Dynasty, if you want to become a qualified scholar, you must be proficient in "Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting". Among them, the qin is often limited to self-appreciation and cannot represent the development of music. The guqin was also the only instrument with a high status at that time.  After the Han Dynasty, a large number of literati qin players appeared one after another, such as Ji Kang and Ruan Ji, who left immortal qin scores, such as the famous "Guangling San".  During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the political power was unified, the economy was prosperous, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Music, as a culture loved by the whole people, gradually prospered, especially Tang poetry, which is unique in Chinese history.  At that time, poets would set their poems to music so that they could be widely circulated. This was an important way to measure the level of their poetry.  During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, as we all know, opera emerged on a large scale and began to be deeply loved by people.  Peugeot is the emergence of Northern Opera and Southern Opera, which has given rise to countless local folk arts, and later developed into the Qupai style of opera music.  Such as "The Injustice of Dou E" by Guan Hanqing and "The Romance of the West Chamber" by Wang Shifu.  By the Ming Dynasty, opera had become a major art form alongside poetry and poetry.  Needless to say, today we already have the buds of a capitalist economy, and you can hear all kinds of music wherever you go.  Even in history, folk ditties have reached the level of popularity that "everyone, regardless of gender, practices it". It can be said that music is as much a cultural achievement as poetry among scholars, and countless literati are intoxicated by it.  Most of the great masters in the Ming Dynasty were also musicians.  For example, Shen Jing, the literary leader of the Wujiang School, was a member of the Shen clan, a prominent family in the south of the Yangtze River, a great dramatist in the Ming Dynasty, and a master in the music industry.  There is also Tang Xianzu, a dramatist and family member of the Tang family in Linchuan.  So Xu Yu¡¯s idea is realistic. If he can create a few outstanding tunes or dramatic novels, it can improve the Xu family¡¯s status in the scholarly community.  Of course, it is much more difficult than passing the Jinshi exam, and factors such as diligence and talent are indispensable.  This idea has always been hidden deep in Xu Yu's heart. He was deeply influenced by his mother and has never told anyone.  At this moment, facing the high expectations placed on him by his grandparents, he can't help but feel conflicted.  Xu Qingtang saw that his grandson was absent-minded and said angrily: "Look at him, he only knows how to hang around in a pile of makeup and powder all day long and is useless." Mrs. Xiao comforted him: "You haven't passed the exam, how do you know that Yu'er is useless? At home with the girl  It's better to play together than to go to the Qinhuai River to find flowers and have fun." After hearing what his grandmother said, Xu Yu took the opportunity to say, "Then let's go back to school." "Okay, it's too late to study hard now." Xu Qingtang shook his head.  I bought some mandarin fish today and asked the kitchen to steam it. You two can eat at my place." "Yes!" Xu Yu said helplessly.  At that moment, Xu Qingtang told the two of them the rules in the examination room and told them: "Do your homework well and don't rush out. After the exam is over, there will be the prefectural exam. After the prefectural exam, there will be the college exam. In short, you two won't be able to come back when I come back."  Come, let's all live in the apartment." Xu Yu was stunned. Xu Xun was also surprised. The two brothers looked at their grandfather at the same time and asked, "Do you want to live outside?" "Yes!" Xu Qingtang touched it.  Beard, "Living outside can help you relax and not be disturbed. Let's make an agreement first. If you don't do well in the exam, you will be here until next spring."?Stay there.  "    "oh.  "Xu Yu opened his mouth and said nothing more. But Xu Yu secretly complained that his grandfather had a plan to remove the salary from the bottom of the pot. He originally planned to fool around, but now it seems that he will not succeed if he does not do well in the exam. The sky outside gradually darkened, and with  At the same time, Mu Ang returned to the upper room, and Du Qianqian told what happened during the day and asked: "She is yours now. I have to ask you first, how should I deal with it? Don't say that I can't bear it.  she.  " Mu Ang frowned and listened without saying a word. He walked out and went straight to Hongwen's small courtyard. He didn't want the door to be sealed, so he had to go around in a circle. When he saw Hongwen who was sulking, he said: "Why are you  So rude? Even your wife dares to contradict her? Who in the family dares to disobey her? Let me tell you, if she really gets angry this time and kicks you out, I will definitely not stop you.  You, if it's okay to argue with others, how can you get angry with your wife? It's like swatting a fly on a tiger's head.  " Hongwen was startled. How could she not know that the madam really wanted to expel her, and it would be useless for anyone except the madam to persuade her. In addition, she heard that the madam ordered someone to close her ears, so she was obviously really angry.  , don¡¯t allow yourself to go there again. What if tomorrow¡¯s wife turns against her and tells her to pack up her things and leave? At this point, Hongwen regrets it and can¡¯t help but become afraid. If she wants to go over there, she should be careful. The problem is that there is no one to persuade her.  , How can you go out with a shameless face? Hongwen is a shameless person with a strong self-esteem. In front of Mu Ang, she does not want to show an expression of regret and fear, for fear of being looked down upon by a man. Such a complicated mood affects her.  Next, Hongwen couldn't help but said: "I was angry in public and was humiliated by my wife, so I had no place to express my grievances.  I didn't expect that you didn't even ask me who was right and who was right, and you followed their words to complain about me.  " As she spoke, her eyes turned red, and Hongwen choked with sobs: "I knew that there was no one to pity in this house, and there was no way to stand out. I was just a toy to be bullied, so it would be better to die cleanly.  Even if I risk my life, I will ask the rest of the family to bear it.  " She threw herself on the bed, beat the brocade quilt hard and cried loudly, crying so hard that it shook the earth. Mu Ang immediately softened her heart and quickly walked over to hug her and said: "I just said it, and it was also a kind suggestion.  It doesn't matter whether you listen or not, so you don't have to be so angry.  Okay, okay, don't cry. If my wife hears me, I will have more to say tomorrow morning.  " Seeing that her plan was successful, the master stopped complaining, and Hongwen sobbed and sobbed. After all, as long as the master loves her, the wife will feel worried, and besides, she has not committed any treason.  After dinner at the Xu Mansion, Xu Yu chatted with his grandparents. Seeing that it was getting late, he stood up and said, "I read an article for students this morning, but I didn't memorize it. I want to go back and read it again."  " Xu Qingtang said: "Don't read it, I will read it tomorrow.  Then you two go back and rest, there is no need to go and greet your parents.  "When the two brothers came out, they had nothing to say to each other. Xu Yu said good night to his second brother and took the others away. Xu Yu slowly returned to the garden alone, sighed and walked forward. Everyone seemed to be  It was time to take a rest, and not even a single person could be seen on the road. Yesterday, there were still a lot of people enjoying the cool air and laughing. It could be seen that there was a message from above that no one was allowed to mess around with him. Xu Yuer had been herding sheep for almost two years.  Yan said that this situation was so unaccustomed that he felt embarrassed to harass her, so he could only return listlessly to the depths of the green cloud. As expected, the Mu sisters had already left when they entered the yard. When they saw that no lights were lit, they asked.  "Why don't you hang up the lights?" He asked again, "Have you eaten?" Qingyan, who was waiting for him, said, "It's quiet at night, and lighting up the lights will make people think we haven't slept.  We have eaten earlier, are you hungry?" "Not hungry.  "Xu Yu opened his arms, let Qingyan unbutton his clothes, and suggested: "How about we have some food and wine? Let's eat wine and admire the moon in the yard.  " "Then how to make it happen?" Qingyan refused without thinking. Niaoyan and others also came out one after another, Bixiao said: "It's late at night, everyone is going to sleep, you should also rest.  " "It's not the exam tomorrow, what are you afraid of?" Xu Yu lost his temper. As a result, several maids stepped forward without explanation, grabbed his arm and pushed his waist towards the bathroom. Niao Yan said: "After washing,  Go to bed quickly, go to bed! Whoever dares to talk nonsense tonight will be punished by kneeling all night.  " "You guys.  "Xu Yu was pushed into the bathroom, but there was nothing he could do. Turning around, they all walked out and closed the door. As they got older and were about to get married next year, everyone obviously had scruples about every move, even if they were intimate.  Ru Qingyan also stayed away, for fear of being criticized for something unclear. Xu Yu took off his clothes one by one, jumped into the pool naked, swam back and forth in the water, and stuck his head out to wipe it.  I wanted to get rid of the water droplets on my face and want to shout for someone to come in and wipe his back and have a chat, but then I thought about it.?Recently, they kept away from him as if they had seen a ghost. Xu Yu sighed helplessly.  As the saying goes, there are gains and losses. The price of marrying four girls at the same time is that the maids with a little bit of integrity and IQ are not willing to squeeze in anymore. It is fun to be a mistress whose status is very different from the first four ladies.  Well? The bored Xu Yu hurriedly finished his bath, brushed his teeth, put on some clothes and came out.  The bed has already been made up, and everyone is busy doing their own things.  Qingyan came over to dry his hair. Xu Yu didn't say a word and let her push him onto the bed.  Niao Yan put down the gauze tent, the two women checked the mosquito coils and other details, and walked out.  Suddenly Yan Yan said: "He hasn't drunk tea yet, I'll bring in the teapot." "I'll do it." Qing Yan said.  Soon Qingyan brought the teapot in, poured a small cup, and served Xu Yu to drink. She said: "I know you are unhappy, but who dares to do so at this point? Dear Master, please be considerate of us and go to bed quickly.  Well, the mother in charge will come in for a ward check soon." Xu Yu opened his eyes and said, "I know that you have all changed and plan to fly away. If you leave, just let me fend for myself.  It would be better if we never wake up." Qingyan laughed and said, "There is no such thing as a banquet. Why would we want to leave? After you get married, you will grow up and start a family.  Now that you have a wife, even the familiar ladies are very different from each other. Now that you have a new person to take care of you, we have to find our own homes. We can't keep you company all our lives.  ?" Xu Yu didn't speak. He knew very well that Qingyan was right. He was making trouble unreasonably, but he just felt uncomfortable.  "Go to sleep." Qingyan forced a smile in a melancholy mood and left gently.  Early the next morning, Mu Ang walked into Aunt Shen's room without disturbing Hongwen, and asked her to speak to his wife on her behalf, so as to avoid the deepening of the knot between them.  Aunt Shen smiled and said: "Master asked me to be a peacemaker? Of course, but you have to explain clearly first, are you blaming my wife for being bad? Or are you blaming sister Hongwen for being bad?" Mu Ang said funnyly: "I am just doing it.  I came here to beg you, but you took the opportunity to make things difficult for me. If you want me to say that there is nothing wrong with anyone, it¡¯s your fault. I didn¡¯t try to persuade you yesterday, so I reaped the benefits.¡± ¡°Bah!¡± Aunt Shen was not happy.  , "Should you say this? You are so heartless! If I hadn't persuaded my wife yesterday, I'm afraid your beloved Mrs. Ru would have made trouble for herself even more, which would have caused me to get in trouble with my wife." Shen  The aunt was very good at knowing what was right. She complained and continued: "Speaking of which, firstly, it was my charming slave who caused it, so I cannot escape the blame; secondly, because we are sisters now, even if others treat me badly,  I also have to take care of my feelings as a sister. My third sister is the beauty you like. If you are wronged and you don¡¯t say it, I know you are hurting in your heart, so I am considerate and look at you.  For your sake, I can¡¯t help but give you advice.¡± ¡°That¡¯s a good idea,¡± Mu Ang nodded and smiled.  Aunt Shen changed the subject again and said with a chuckle: "I thought about it last night. Today I will go to persuade my sister and then apologize to my wife. Who would have thought that you would blame me when you come here? Hum, I am in vain.  If you are worried about this, just be a bad person and not interfere with their affairs; or simply instigate the wife to find her own shortcomings. Anyway, it is just for you to blame. What can you do to me?"  Looking at Shen's charming and provocative eyes, Mu Ang laughed and said: "Cheng, Cheng, you are a good person, you are a truly good person! I don't want to say anything anymore, just ask you to persuade me. Haha! That's it.  Have you ever seen someone take credit for something before it's done? If you can't persuade me, I'll really come to settle the score with you. We'll see you tonight." After saying that, he walked away smiling all the way.  "See you tonight?" Aunt Shen smiled with satisfaction.  (To be continued)
