039 The Great Wisdom of Ancient Small People
Shangguan Wan'er, who traveled from modern times to the real Ouyang Xinyu, never dreamed that she was the daughter of a wealthy Hong Kong. At this moment, her identity and everything she had in modern times would be replaced by another her. Fortunately, the dynasty she traveled and the family she traveled was also a prominent family of officials. In ancient times, she would have endless wealth and glory in her life.
The most painful thing that made Ouyang Xinyu feel was that she came through time with memories. She knew that she was a modern person. Although this family gave her an extremely noble status and enjoyment of money, she was incompatible with this era. Therefore, she always wanted to escape from this era.
A pair of bulky flower pot-sole shoes has already made her sad enough. Now she has to practice piano, chess, books, and painting. Isn’t this her life? Originally, in modern times, Ouyang Xinyu was not a well-developed girl. She suddenly traveled to ancient times, and the things she had to learn were much more complicated than those in modern times. What should she do?
"Xiao Cui, please help me think of a solution! I really can't stay here for a day. Please help me think about it, how can I travel through time?"
"Miss, aren't you making things difficult for Xiao Cui? Where did Xiao Cui get the ability? Can you think of a way to get the lady back to that modern home? You should think about it yourself, how to deal with the master and his wife! When Miss Wan'er was here, although she was naughty by nature, she was proficient in piano, chess, books, and paintings!"
"Oh, where did your Miss Wan'er go? It really hurt me. Why did you learn so many skills if you have nothing to do!"
"Miss, have you come from modern times two hundred years later? Logically speaking, you are more developed than our ancient times, so why don't you try it with your modern methods? Maybe you are even more powerful than our Miss Wan'er!"
"Xiao Cui, you don't know. I am called a nerd in modern times. I am very stupid. I only read books and never take the initiative in new things and learning!"
"Needle? Miss, how could anyone call you a nerd? You modern people are so funny. Do they all like to give alias to others?" Xiao Cui heard Ouyang Xinyu say that in modern times, others call her a nerd, and she thought this title was very funny. In ancient times, nerds were used to describe scholars who worked hard in their studies, but unexpectedly, modern people also used it on girls.
"Yes, our modern students will give people a lot of such names. For example, the girl who looks the most beautiful in the school will be called the "school beauties", and the boys are called the "school beauties". There are also the department flowers, the department flowers, the class flowers, the class flowers, the class grass, etc., anyway, they can think about it."
"Will others not get angry when they call others like this?" Xiao Cui heard Ouyang Xinyu say this, but why did she feel that modern times are not more civilized than ancient times, but are becoming more and more rude!
"I am definitely not angry when I am called the school beauty and the school grass! For them, that is a kind of honor. I am angry when they call me a nerd. I am not as stupid as they say!"
"Miss, I think they are right!" Xiao Cui said this and hurriedly covered her mouth and smiled. Modern people are really very accurate in helping people get their names. This Miss Xinyu is really stupid, not as smart as their Miss Wan'er.
"Xiao Cui, what were you saying? You even made fun of me, right?" Seeing Xiao Cui laughing on her back, Ouyang Xinyu suddenly felt a sense of unhappiness flashing across her face.
"No, I just feel funny about this title, because in ancient times this title refers to scholars! Miss, you are a girl, how can they use this title on you?" Seeing Ouyang Xinyu so sad, Xiao Cui suddenly felt a little pity. She thought that Miss Xinyu had no friends in modern times, and now she has come to them from thousands of miles away, and she was the only friend of Xiao Cui. If even she bullies her, then she wouldn't be very pitiful?
"Xiao Cui, I know I'm stupid, not as smart as your lady! In modern times, I have also worked hard to study. But no matter how hard I try, I still can't meet my requirements, I don't know why this is?"
"Miss, this is not the case! Our Miss Wan'er has been influenced by the master and his wife since she was a child. She has been learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with the teacher since she was a child. This freezing three feet is not a day long. How can the two be compared?"
"Xiao Cui, then what should I do?"
"Or why not do this, Miss! Xiao Cui has been waiting by Miss Wan'er since she was a child. When the lady was reading and writing, Xiao Cui grinds ink and observes it, and she has learned a little bit of knowledge in calligraphy and painting. Otherwise, I will teach you some basic things today, and the others will depend on the lady's own luck. What do you think?"
"Wow, Xiao Cui, you are really amazing! I admire you so much, I love you so much!" Ouyang Xinyu never expected that in ancient times, a maid knew more than her modern ones.
"Miss, what Xiao Cui learned is just a little bit of fur. You must study hard!"
"Xiao Cui, if I had known that you had such great ability, I wouldn't have had to worry so in vain. Why didn't you say it earlier?"
"Miss, Xiao Cui is very knowledgeable and dare not show off in front of the lady. So Xiao Cui doesn't dare to say it! Isn't it that the lady is so worried now that she really has no choice!"
"Xiao Cui, do you know that you know more than me! If you encounter such a thing again in the future, don't hide it anymore. Can you just say it out loud?"
"Okay, Miss! Since the lady believes in Xiao Cui so much, then how can Xiao Cui disobey the lady!"
"That's right! Then, let's start right away! Learn calligraphy and painting first!"
"The first thing you need to prepare for painting is the four treasures of the study, brushes, black ink, rice paper, and inkstones. These are all ready-made on our lady's desk, all of which are of high quality. Our Miss Wan'er is best at painting the four gentlemen of plum, orchid, chrysanthemum, and bamboo. Miss Wan'er's paintings are superb, and even our master praised her when he saw them!"
"Wow, your lady is so powerful, it's a pity that she's gone!"
"Ms. Xinyu, it is impossible for a person to be perfect. Although Miss Wan'er is smart and intelligent by nature, Miss Xinyu values love and righteousness, and she feels pity for our master's wife and Xiao Cui. This is also your strength!"
