The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

Qingyin listened quietly to the bickering between his two younger brothers and sisters without interfering. The two younger brothers and sisters should deal with their own affairs. It would not be proper for him to interfere, and it was a good opportunity for them to develop their relationship.

Ge Qing, the servant in the side room, had already prepared the meal. Ge Qing was also the servant arranged by Lin's mother for Qing Yin. He was neither too old nor too young, but his temperament was very calm and delicate. Qing Yin made him the manager of the courtyard.

Hearing the noise, he diligently pulled out the chairs and let his masters sit down to enjoy breakfast.

Originally, Ge Qing was planning to serve the eldest master at mealtime, but Qingyin shook her head and refused.

Seeing that their eldest brother refused to be served by the people around him, Luo Miaoqing and Luo Jiancang looked at each other. Their eldest brother had lived in a temple before and life was hard, so there must be no one to serve him. He developed this habit and probably didn't even know the etiquette of eating. It was really pitiful. They also wanted to be like their eldest brother and give him more comfort and empathy. The two of them tacitly refused the food served by the people around them.

When Qingyin looked up, he saw the look of pity in the two men's eyes. Uh, what were these two thinking about? Qingyin suddenly felt that he might be a little out of touch with society, otherwise how could he not know what his two younger brothers and sisters were thinking?

Forget it, never mind, Qingyin continued to eat.

Qingyin's meals were neither hurried nor slow, and every movement she made revealed a classical charm, which, combined with her face, was even more pleasing to the eye.

The two siblings who were observing silently glanced at each other and saw the second brother and the younger sister who were having their meal opposite them. Well, they were the ones who disturbed them. Compared with the eldest brother, the second brother/younger sister were very rough.

As expected, he is worthy of being the eldest brother. No matter where he grew up, he always has the character of a noble family.

After finishing the meal, they returned to the study.

Qingyin took out a pile of books. It was a good thing. During the one or two months when Qingyin had just come to this world and stayed in the temple, she edited these textbooks. Her younger brother and sister each had a set.

The two sets of desks that Ge Qing had prepared in advance were waiting for the owner to take a seat.

After asking the two to sit down, Qingyin laid out two test papers, one for each of them, both of which he had edited based on his rough estimation of their knowledge.

Luo Miaoqing and Luo Jiancang glanced at the test paper in front of them, and then glanced at the elder brother who was smiling gently on the stage. They clearly did not feel any malice, but now they have understood a little bit of the pain of future students.

"Go ahead, let me show you what you have learned." This sentence slowly revealed the painful future life of the two and the earth-shaking changes that would follow.

Two people: "..."

However, neither of them had that feeling at the moment. Looking at the eldest brother's gentle eyes and that stunning face, they gritted their teeth and did it.

Luo Jiancang was okay. After all, he had learned a little and was also taught in the academy. His elder brother grew up in a temple, so it was impossible for him to know more than him, right?

Luo Miaoqing on the other side had the same idea. Although her father did not allow her to enter the academy to take the exam like her second brother, she had learned basic literacy and enlightenment, and even learned some basic textbooks such as the Analects of Confucius.

But looking at this question, she slowly became dumbfounded. "If people don't know you and you don't get angry, aren't you a gentleman? What does that mean?" She could still understand it, but how could she answer the following "chickens and rabbits are in the same cage. They have twenty heads and forty-six legs, one for each chicken and rabbit?"... and the following "If an epidemic breaks out in the area, what would be your first preparation...?"?

Luo Jiancang had the same idea. The more he answered, the more confused he became, and the more he doubted his life. After the last exam, the two of them stood in front of Qingyin like quails.

Qingyin chuckled and picked up the two people's test papers. There were quite a few words filled in, densely packed, but at a glance, there were very few correct answers.

Fortunately, Qingyin had prepared herself mentally first, so she didn't feel too bad.

But the task is long and arduous.

I thought Luo Jiancang should be somewhat okay, but looking at this test paper, Qingyin felt that Luo's father was still too relaxed with him.

"To be honest, your answers were not very good, especially Jian Cang. You have been to a college and have been taught by a teacher, but I didn't expect..."

With every word Qingyin spoke, Luo Jiancang lowered his head a little more.

Obviously, the elder brother didn't scold him and his tone was very calm, but Luo Jiancang felt his face burning, and it was more uncomfortable than if the old man scolded him a hundred times.

Luo Miaoqing didn't care about gloating. Looking at her elder brother in front of her with a calm expression on his face, she lowered her head tightly, fearing that her elder brother would notice her.

"But it doesn't matter. In my memory, my second brother is smart and well-behaved, and my younger sister is also smart. Do you know what you should do in the future?" Qingyin paused for a second.

He said in a slightly rising tone: "I know that my second brother may think that he will just become an official in the future, and my younger sister will just get married, but life is not just about getting married, and being an official does not have to be just for the sake of being an official. I have seen the ups and downs of the mountains, the magnificent sunsets, the husbands who sold their wives for food, and the 70-year-old man who collapsed in the farmland... Jian Cang, Qingqing, you still have a long life ahead of you, and you can slowly find all kinds of ways to live. With me here, you don't have to be so tired of following the rules, especially you, Qingqing."

Luo Miaoqing stared at her elder brother in a daze. She seemed to understand something in her heart but also seemed not to understand it. However, there was no doubt that she was moved at the moment.

She originally liked the eldest brother because of his looks, but now she seemed to like him even more because she could feel that he was caring about her personally, which was something that her father and mother did not have. The thought when she was young and asked her father why her second brother could go to the academy but she couldn't, didn't seem to be so important anymore.

The same is true for Luo Jiancang.

After his eldest brother left, his father had taken him into the training of successor, and he would scold him whenever he saw something wrong. This was the first time he felt a clear sense of protection, and he was also told, "With him here, there's no need to worry."

Looking at the two people who were full of energy after drinking a big bowl of chicken soup for the soul, and were eager to devote themselves to him, Qingyin nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that his first step strategy was good. Well, the next step was to make them develop the habit of attending classes step by step.

Qingyin customized a strict time schedule and asked the two people to bring a copy each and come to his study at a fixed time every day to study.

In the afternoon, there was a bamboo forest and an open space in the empty backyard. The sunlight was not too strong because it had rained a few days ago. The temperature was just right at this moment, and it was also suitable for practicing martial arts.

In order to exercise, Qingyin changed into a riding suit, and so did his "students" Luo Jiancang and Luo Miaoqing.

"This time I will show you my martial arts skills. Please watch first."

Ge Qing displayed a bunch of cold weapons: swords, knives, whips, guns, etc.

At first, the two were still wondering why the eldest brother took out a bunch of cold weapons, but later their expressions changed from ⊙︿⊙——(?д?).

Qingyin demonstrated the use of various cold weapons in front of them, starting with the sword. The sharp sword light left deep marks on the ground. As the sword was pulled out, the fierce cold air blew on their faces. In the end, the two of them could only applaud blindly.

"How about it, do you want to learn?" The whip was finally swung down, and the loud "crack" sound it hit the ground really hit their hearts.

"study!"

"Learn!" The two people's loud voices undoubtedly showed their complete admiration for Qingyin.

Probably no one can refuse the dream of becoming a martial arts master, especially Luo Jiancang, a man who loves martial arts novels very much. You know, he once had the idea of becoming a chivalrous knight in the world, although he was awakened by a slap from his father.

After a while, Qingyin looked at the brother who was leaning in front of her and hesitantly asked, "Hmm?"

"Brother, do you know how to use the Falling Leaf Flying Knife?" The younger brother stared at him with sparkling eyes, without any of the awkwardness he had before.

Qingyin naturally fulfilled his brother's wish.

He asked his younger brother to pick up a stone and throw it into the air. Qingyin used the materials available at hand and directly picked up a bamboo leaf, held it upright, and shot it. The stone broke into two halves and fell to the ground.

Luo Jiancang happily picked up the stone that was split into two pieces. Touching the extremely smooth scratches on the two stones, Luo Jiancang smiled like a fool.
