Chapter 148
Mrs. Zhen looked carefully at the test papers of the three girls, and felt that the three girls had a good foundation, so she accepted them all. So far, Li Yuanchun, Li Mengying, and Li Mengdan will be attending classes with Mrs. Zhen from tomorrow.

And Li Meier and Li Yuanxia are half students each, listening to Mrs. Zhengu.

When Mrs. Jiang led Li Meier back, she couldn't hide her happy face. From the time she left Mrs. Zhen's house to entering her own, the corners of her lips were raised, and she wished she could tell the good news quickly. Tell the family.

Mrs. Li was also very happy when she heard the news. It was rare to say to Li Meier with a smile: "The girl's film is good, and the pickles and fruits sent by your mother are not in vain. In the future, I will study hard from Mrs. Zhengu and strive to learn more about it. She has learned everything."

"Mother, although Mrs. Zhen said that she doesn't charge money for helping to teach the girls in the clan, but that's because she is an open-minded old man, but we still have to do our best, and I think we should send a bunch of repairs over there." " Mrs. Jiang thought more, then said to Mrs. Li carefully.

When Mrs. Li heard that she was going to take out the money, she felt a little pained, but what the daughter-in-law said was reasonable, and she didn't refute it. After thinking for a while, she slapped her thigh and said: "Although your aunt is not very authentic, you can send money to me." The things I bought are pretty good, you go and pick some good ones from her gifts, and send them to Mrs. Zhen.” This way, I don’t have to pay for it myself, which is good.Mrs. Jiang also thought it was a good idea. The ones that Aunt Zhuang gave were all good things, some of which could only be bought in the state capital, and they were much better than the things in their town.

On the second day, Mrs. Jiang sent Li Meier and Shu Xiu to Mrs. Zhen Gu, but Mrs. Zhen didn't refuse, and accepted them together. At this point, Li Meier is also a learned person, and she doesn't have to spend a lot of time. There is nothing to do in the house, and they are fighting chickens and dogs.

After delivering Li Meier, Mrs. Jiang left, and came back to pick her up before lunch.

Li Yuanxia came earlier than Li Meier, and was very happy to see her here. She is one year older than Li Meier, and she is already six years old this year. She pulled Li Meier, like an older sister taking care of her younger sister, and patted her small chest and said : "My mother told me that you are the youngest, let me take care of you, let's study together, if you don't understand anything, you can ask me."

Li Meier nodded with a smile, "Okay, thank you sister Xia."

But I couldn't help but slander in my heart, this talented kid Li Yuanxia doesn't look like a person who can read at all.

Mrs. Zhengu already knew the basic situation of several students yesterday, and today she began to teach at different paces. She herself mainly taught etiquette and housekeeping. The chess book is also taught by her, and the other four are taught by her four servant girls.

It was only then that Li Mei'er realized that the maids around Mrs. Zhen also had unique skills.

Before the class, Mrs. Zhen called Li Meier and Li Yuanxia and asked carefully, "Have you two started enlightenment?"

"I've already learned the thousand-character prose." Li Yuanxia said confidently. She also has the capital of self-confidence. For a girl of her age, let alone the thousand-character prose, it is considered good if she can write her own name.

Mrs. Zhengu nodded with a smile, and looked at Li Meier again.

Li Meier didn't intend to be modest, after all, she wanted to let the teacher fully know her level, so she answered truthfully: "I have finished studying the Thousand Characters, and I have also learned more than half of the Analects."

Mrs. Zhen was a little surprised when she heard the words. After all, Li Meier is one year younger than Li Yuanxia, ​​and she has already started to learn the Analects, which is rare nowadays.

But when she thought about Li Meier's father being a scholar, and there was an uncle in the family who was a master of Juren, she was relieved, but she couldn't help but praise, "Mei Meier's family is indeed a scholarly family."

Li Meier was a little proud, thinking that it was not for nothing that she studied with Jiang Shanqing these days, so she was showing off in front of Mrs. Zhengu.

Li Yuanxia didn't expect Li Meier to be more knowledgeable than her, and thinking about what he said to her just now, he felt a little embarrassed, so when Mrs. Zhen was giving lectures to the three older girls, she also listened very carefully. But she was young after all, and she couldn't sit still after sitting for half an hour. She touched her stomach for a while, and looked at Li Meier who was already playing on the swing not far away. When Qing Yuan came out with the newly made snacks, she finally I couldn't bear it anymore, so I ran over to eat some snacks with my short legs.

Li Meier learned from yesterday's experience, when she saw Li Yuanxia coming, she hurriedly took two pieces of cakes in her hand, for fear that Li Yuanxia would finish them again if she took them late.

"Ah! There is my favorite egg yolk shortbread!" Li Yuanxia squinted his eyes happily when he saw the snacks on the small table, picked up an egg yolk shortbread, and began to eat happily.

"The two girls eat slowly, there are plenty of desserts." Qing Yuan who was on the side was very happy to see the two little guys eating happily. The reason why she likes cooking is that she likes to see others like eating her cooking.

The two snacks had a snack for a while, Mrs. Zhen also let the older girls rest for a quarter of an hour, Qingzhi and Qingyuan immediately prepared some snacks and tea for the older girls.

Li Yuanchun walked over gracefully holding up the hem of her skirt. Seeing Li Yuanxia who was full of snack scum, he frowned in distaste, and lectured rudely: "Fat Xia, you forgot what mother told you again, Tell you to eat less, eat less, do you really want to be fat like a pig!"

Li Yuanxia turned her head away, ignored her sister, and still enjoyed eating.

Li Yuanchun's cheeks bulged in anger, and that pretty little face instantly came alive, and he stretched out his hand to pinch Li Yuanxia's ear, "I'm talking to you, don't pretend you didn't hear me!"

Li Yuanxia was in pain from being pinched, and immediately waved his hands wildly, trying to break free from her sister's clutches.

Li Meier was also taken aback by Li Yuanchun's sudden violent behavior. She didn't expect that Li Yuanxia's sister was born with a soft and weak appearance, but her temper was so hot.

Li Mengying and Li Mengdan also came over at this time, seeing Li Yuanchun and sisters fighting, Li Mengying was fine, she just smiled gently and dignifiedly, but Li Mengdan showed a bit of disdain, curled her lips in disdain.

Li Meier observed the expressions of the two of them, and probably guessed their respective personalities. Li Mengdan is the eldest sister, and her temperament is naturally more stable and thick, while Li Mengdan is the youngest daughter, and her temperament is inevitably arrogant. When several people who are completely different get together, conflicts and frictions are inevitable. It seems that the days of studying with Mrs. Zhengu will not be too boring.
