Traveling through the starry sky just for you, I was a koi in ancient times

Since last ten-day break, my sister has been able to recite what I have learned after hearing me recite it.

Wang Wendong devoted almost 120% of his energy to his studies during the past ten days.

I listened to the teacher carefully in class, not even blinking, for fear of losing to my sister again because of my carelessness.

Today, I got up early to recite. In the past ten days, I recited it silently every night after turning off the lights. But the next day, I almost forgot the previous day's homework.

During these eight days, Wang Wendong struggled repeatedly: working hard, getting frustrated, working hard again, and getting frustrated again.

After listening to the stories of his third uncle and eldest uncle yesterday, Wang Wendong seemed to understand a little bit. Everyone just has their own strengths, which is nothing special, and no one is worse than anyone else.

There is also what my father said: A man should never say he can't do it, should never admit defeat easily, and should never make excuses for his weakness.

Wang Wendong thought about this sentence for half the night last night. He wrote this sentence in large Weibei characters on a vertical scroll and hung it in his study, making it his motto.

Today my father randomly checked my homework. Even though I forgot some of it, I saw my sister still covering her mouth and laughing at herself.

Actually, there is nothing to be angry about. I will be able to memorize it tomorrow. Wang Jinyi never thought that she just wanted to please her mother, but it became a spur that her brother would never forget for the rest of his life!

It was already past breakfast time, but Ouyang Wenche did not show up in the second room. Only a maid came and hurriedly said that Ouyang Wenche had been studying last night and got up late today, so he would not have dinner with the people in the second room.

Wang Jinyi immediately connected Ouyang Wenche's rudeness today with the dark shadow that fell last night.

Did something happen again yesterday? Or was he secretly taken away? Wang Jinyi thought to herself.

Since there were no outsiders, the family did not sit at separate tables, but the four of them sat together happily. No one talked at the table, but the parents picked up food for each other and for the children, and the family had the meal in a warm atmosphere.

My father rarely went to the study, but announced that he would take the whole family to see the yard that my grandfather had arranged for us.

I heard that the yard is at No. 9 Yongxing Lane.

Wang Jinyi was basically certain that his grandfather had intentionally sent both of his sons away.

You said that if only Uncle San’s friends come, is it necessary?

If the back house is inconvenient, just arrange it in the front yard. If that doesn’t work, there are still the east and west yards. There is no need to send both sons away!

There was only one possibility left, that is, there were too many people and it would be safe for everyone if they were all sent away. This would be convenient for those who came and safe for those who left, so. He perfectly arranged for both sons to leave the house.

Wang Jinyi sighed at her foresight. Alas, there is nothing I can do. I am just so considerate.

The second family gathered together again, and they had all changed into their outer clothes for going out.

The mother was accompanied by Qing'er, Wang Jinyi was accompanied by her wet nurse and Zhu Yu, and the father and brother's servants were waiting outside the second gate. When they saw their masters coming out, they all bowed.

Wang Jinyi recognized the two people and remembered that his father's long-time servant was called Wang Bing. He was not a relative of the Wang family, but a servant that his father bought into the mansion when he was a child.

My elder brother's servant was called Wang Dong, and he took his master's surname. He was an orphan adopted by my third uncle when he was away studying.

I heard that when my uncle encountered a drought, people had to flee and there were too many orphans. If no one came to help, their lives would be in danger.

He collected children along the way, and finally had more than 200 children. The young ones were raised in the mountains, and the older ones were sent back home to be servants. Some also followed him as his followers.

He took the money from publishing his first travel book from home, bought two mountains, and built farms on them. I heard he was doing very well.

It seemed that there was no one to manage his uncle, so he asked for a few managers from Wang Clan of Langya. Then, he traveled around the world to study.

After hearing this story, Wang Jinyi asked her mother if the mountain was beautiful. Her mother said it had nothing to do with beauty or ugliness, as it was just to support these orphans.

I heard that this mountain has a beautiful name, called Huaguo Mountain.

Wang Jinyi's heart had already flown out of the second door of Chuihua. She was so happy that she looked around and found that there was almost no landscaping in the front yard. Except for the corridors and corridors, there were just a patchwork of trees.

There are no flowers in the front yard, so it looks quiet and elegant.

The corridor leads directly to the main hall, which looks square, grand, simple and steady. On the pillars in front of the main hall, there are two plaques. On the left and right are written: Farming and reading are passed down from generation to generation, and poetry and books are passed down from generation to generation.

The handwriting is powerful and beautiful. It looks like a masterful hand.

Walk along the path paved with blue-gray flagstones and through the winding woods.

The family passed through the moon-shaped gate in the front yard, went around to the west yard, and walked out of the gate along the corridor. From afar, they saw several carriages parked outside the half-open door.

After the whole family got on the carriage and heard the sound of horse hooves "clacking", Wang Jinyi lifted the curtain and saw the carriage passing through the alley formed by the courtyard wall and entering the main street.

The carriage passed through the streets and alleys. More and more people came and went, and the voices were noisy. Various shops began to appear on both sides, and various carriages and pedestrians kept passing by the carriage window.

The mother reminded her two children:

"We will be at the yard that our grandfather lent us in a while. No matter whether it is good or bad, you are not allowed to complain or run around. You must follow the adults closely."

Then he looked at his brother Wang Wendong and said:

"Tell Wang Dong to be cautious and not act recklessly outside the house. We represent the Wang family after we leave the house."

The carriage moved slower and slower. Wang Jinyi watched the streets change from compacted dirt roads to bluestone roads. The streets became more and more regular, and the road surface was straight and wide.

There were many shops on both sides of the road, and they all looked like they were doing good business, with people coming in and out all the time, making it very lively. The shop flags and signs of each shop were hung high, fluttering in the wind.

Well, this should be the time to enter the inner city!

As the carriage slowly moved forward, we finally saw the provincial education administration office. Surrounding it were academies, bookshops, bookstores, and bookshops that could publish books.

Wang Jinyi thought, this is no different from the previous life, this is obviously the school district. Entering the narrow alley, the carriage stopped outside a blue brick courtyard wall.

Wang Jinyi was carried down from the carriage by her nurse.

Then I saw an old double-leaf wooden door that had been eroded by wind and rain, with distinct wood texture.

On the huge single stone step in front of the door, there is a rectangular doorstone on each side, a high single wooden threshold, and two wooden door pins on the lintel.

Dad knocked lightly on the doorknob, and the old servant inside opened the door. Seeing that it was his master, he bowed and invited everyone to step over the threshold. Once inside the door, there was a gatehouse on each side.

Inside the courtyard, two rows of lush green trees divide the courtyard into three aisles, with a wide stone path in the middle leading directly to the south-facing main hall. The east wing is a study, and the west wing is a bedroom.

Going around the Mingtang, there is a Begonia Gate on the east and west sides. Go around the east wing corridor and enter the Begonia Gate.

Walk through the blue-gray square brick corridor and enter the back house.

There are a number of townhouses in the backyard, with the main houses facing south arranged in a row.

Behind the house is a small garden with no flowers, only a patch of uneven trees, scattered in an orderly manner, forming a small forest.

The entire courtyard at No. 9 Yongxing Lane has two entrances and is small and neat. This is also where my uncle, Wang Shuyuan, reviewed before taking the imperial examinations three times.

The whole family separated after entering the courtyard. Father and brother went into the study in the front courtyard. Mother took Qing'er to inspect everywhere, while Wang Jinyi took the nurse to the back house.

Wang Jinyi was preparing to choose her own room, but in fact she had no choice because girls always lived in the west room, and the east room was exclusively for the sons in the family.

There is one reason why Wang Jinyi likes this courtyard very much, and that is that there are no longer any insurmountable high thresholds.

The threshold that replaced it is so high that you can easily step over it by just lifting your foot, and it is less than the ankle.

Wang Jinyi chose a suite because she had to live with her wet nurse.

Thinking about his own great cause of "bringing fame and honor to his family", he had to carry on. He also had to get Zhu Yu's family to come over as soon as possible. Today was a good opportunity.

Wang Jinyi took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and left Zhu Yu alone.

Secretly asking Zhu Yu to do this and that, seeing that Zhu Yu was reluctant and did not dare to refute her master, Wang Jinyi tried his best to explain the whole thing to Zhu Yu, and promised that no matter what happened, he would never implicate her.

Zhu Yu finally went to the front yard to find Qing'er after some hesitation.

Wang Jinyi has been a good boy since she traveled through time. Although her heart is complicated, she cannot let go of her mask and has to maintain her image.

He and Zhu Yu especially emphasized that all they had to do was find someone to take Qingyu's note home and let their family come to visit.

Wang Jinyi's first step was to meet Zhu Yu's brother.
