No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 411 Unauthorized Claim
Not only Luo Junyao was surprised, but the surprise on Liu Ruoqiu's face at the door was also evident on the others.

If one only looks at Liu Ruoqiu's appearance, one will only think that she is either suffering from chronic illness or is a girl from a poor family.But looking at the clothes and accessories on her body, any one is enough for a girl from a poor family to use for several years.

For a while, she was a little uncertain about her identity, only Su Rui and Song Ju raised their eyebrows, and they all looked at Luo Junyao.

Luo Junyao smiled and nodded to the person at the door: "It's here, girl, please come in."

"Thank you." Liu Ruoqiu walked in slowly. Her demeanor was not good, but there was nothing unacceptable about her.

Zhang Jingyu sat behind the desk and looked at Liu Ruoqiu with a smile, "What's your surname? Which college do you want to go to?"

Liu Ruoqiu said in a low voice: "My surname is Liu, Liu Ruoqiu, I want to study medicine."

willow?
Qin Ning suddenly reacted and said, "Are you the girl who just came back from the Liu family?"

Liu Ruoqiu was startled, looked at Qin Ning with some surprise, but still nodded and said: "Yes."

Qin Ning looked at her curiously, "Are you really that real girl from the Liu family? Why are you like this? Why are you here alone? Did those people in the countryside treat you badly? Why didn't the Liu family accompany you?" stand up?"

"Sister Ah Ning..." Xu Xinyu pulled Qin Ning and called in a low voice.

Zhang Jingyu glanced at Qin Ning helplessly, and said to Liu Ruoqiu: "This is Princess Anyang, she has no malicious intentions, so don't worry about it. Miss Liu can read and write? Can you fill in your household name?"

Liu Ruoqiu was a little surprised, but still hastily stepped forward to greet her.

Her etiquette is also very rusty, obviously she just learned it not long ago.But I still try my best to be standard, and I don't feel in a hurry.

Qin Ning also knew that she was being presumptuous, so she quickly waved her hand and said, "Don't be too polite, don't you mind if I talk nonsense?"

Liu Ruoqiu shook her head and said: "It's a bit tough in the countryside, but my parents are very kind to me, no one bullies me, thank you Princess for your concern." After that, Liu Ruoqiu returned to Zhang Jingyu, "I have learned some medical skills, so I also know a few words."

Only then did Zhang Jingyu hand the paper to her, and said, "That's good, does the Liu family know that the girl is going to go to medical school?"

Hearing this, Liu Ruoqiu's hand that took the paper was slightly stiff.

It was strange for everyone in the room to see Liu Ruoqiu coming in alone, most of the girls who came before were accompanied by their fathers, brothers or mothers.These women who were originally born and raised in Shangyong are like this, let alone Liu Ruoqiu, a girl who just came back and never even went out?

If the Liu family wanted to send her to Anlan Academy, why would they let her come alone?
Liu Ruoqiu squeezed the note in her hand, the expression on her face was a bit more tangled and apprehensive.

She struggled for a while, but finally raised her head and said calmly: "Mr. Hui, I... I came here by myself."

Zhang Jingyu frowned slightly, and said, "Does the Liu family not agree to let you come?"

Liu Ruoqiu nodded, and said in a low voice: "Liu...Father said that I am too old to learn anything in the academy. Why don't I ask a teacher to teach me at home, so as not to feel sad that I can't keep up with my classmates."

It's just that the gentlemen that the Liu family hired for her were all those who taught her etiquette, three obediences and four virtues, and female red needlework.

Originally, Liu Ruoqiu didn't have too many thoughts, but when she accidentally heard a member of the Liu family mention that An Lan Academy had newly opened a school to teach medical skills, she couldn't help it.

Liu Ruoqiu was brought back to her mother's house by the nanny's sister-in-law back then, but she was not raised at her mother's house, but was picked up as an abandoned baby and given to a childless couple in the village.Life in the countryside is indeed very poor, but Liu Ruoqiu didn't feel too sad, because all peasant girls live like that.

Her adoptive parents had only one daughter, and they were not bad to her.

It's just that her adoptive parents passed away in an accident three years ago, and before they had time to make a marriage arrangement for her, Liu Ruoqiu could only live alone for these few years.Relying on the ability to collect herbs from the mountains with her parents since she was a child, she sold the herbs she picked to the medical center in the town. The old doctor in the medical center saw that she was a poor little girl and hardworking, so he taught her some medical principles.

If she was a boy, the old doctor might take her as an apprentice, but unfortunately, she was a girl so he had no choice but to let it go.

But because of this, Liu Ruoqiu is very interested in medical skills, and respects old doctors who can treat patients and save lives. Occasionally, she secretly fantasizes that she can become such a respectable person one day.

It's a pity that she has gradually grown up in the past two years, and some dubious people often come to harass her. In order to protect her temper, she has become a bit tough and stubborn.

But this is not a long-term solution. If the Liu family hadn't gone to pick her up this time, she would have to find someone who is not so bad to marry in a while.But she is a little girl with no relatives and no reason, how can there be any good people willing to marry her?

So Liu Ruoqiu was very happy about returning to Liu's house, at that time she only thought that it was great to be able to get rid of that environment.

Although her father's intention was to marry her off as soon as possible after returning to Liu's house, she was a little disappointed but not too sad.

However, when she heard that Anlan Academy could learn medical skills, she still couldn't help making a request to her father, and then she was severely scolded by Liu Shangshu.

She also heard her father and elder brother say that she should not be allowed to go to Anlan Academy, and she should not be allowed to meet too many powerful people in Shangyong so as not to lose face to the Liu family.If Liu Ruxia is going to marry into Duke Cheng's mansion, she can't let her spoil her marriage.

Liu Ruoqiu was very disappointed and sad, maybe she was too greedy.When her brother came to pick her up, she clearly thought that as long as she could get out of there, she would not have to live such a life of fear and be forced to marry a local rascal.

But after arriving at Liu's house, she couldn't help wanting more.

She doesn't want to get married so soon, she wants to be a doctor, and like the old doctor in the town, she wants to be respected by her ability to treat diseases and save lives.

So she still couldn't help telling her mother that she wanted to go out and have a look, and then sneaked out without telling her father and brother.Originally, she just wanted to sneak a look at the legendary Anlan Academy, but she didn't really dare to come in and sign up.But after seeing many girls coming in and out at the door, I couldn't help but walked in by myself.

She wasn't really a weak and obedient girl in the first place, father... even if her father was angry, she still wanted to persevere.

Zhang Jingyu was a little embarrassed, "If Liu Shangshu disagrees, will you be able to enroll smoothly then?"

Liu Ruoqiu couldn't help clenching her fingers tightly, the knuckles turned white, "I...I want to try, I will try my best to convince my family."

Zhang Jingyu looked sideways at Luo Junyao, she was not very optimistic about Liu Ruoqiu's ability to persuade Liu Shangshu.

Luo Junyao asked: "Why do you want to enter the medical school? You should have heard that these schools are all newly opened, and they are not for everyone to study. You are the daughter of Shangshu, Master Liu will probably not let you here."

Liu Ruoqiu looked at Luo Junyao in surprise, and she also recognized that Luo Junyao was the girl she saw the day she first arrived in Shangyong.

Because Luo Junyao was so beautiful, and she was the first beautiful and noble girl she saw when she came to Shangyong, the influence was too profound.So much so that when she went to Liu's house and saw Liu Ruxia, she didn't feel much, and she didn't have much anxiety and self-ashamedness that she expected before.

Luo Junyao looked at her with a smile and said, "Miss Liu?"

Liu Ruoqiu settled down and said: "I want to be a doctor." Everyone in the room was obviously very surprised, they all looked at the thin girl standing there.

Song Yu smiled and said: "A doctor is not suitable for the status of a noble girl in Shangyong. Miss Liu is no longer in the country. You are the daughter of Shangshufu. Even if there are not many girls with higher status than you in Shangyong. You You don’t need to do anything and you can live a pampered life, why would you want to be a doctor?”

Liu Ruoqiu shook her head and said: "It's different, I want to learn how to see a doctor and save people." She originally thought that returning to the Shangshu Mansion would be a good day, but in fact her life in the Shangshu Mansion was not so happy.

Recalling that she once saw the old doctor who saw the doctor and saved people and was truly grateful, she was still so envious and yearning.

Luo Junyao said: "Shangyong does have some medical women, but most of them are in the palace, and their status is not high, and they are even despised. Even if you learn medicine, it may not be useful. Do you still want to learn? "

Liu Ruoqiu nodded and said: "I want to learn, maybe... it will be useful, right?"

Luo Jun smiled and said: "Okay, you fill in the roster, and then go to the side to test. We will reserve a place for you. If you can come on the day the academy officially opens, you will be a student of Anlan Academy. In addition, after you go back, you will still be a student. Ask your mother or other trusted elders, at least you must know what studying medicine means to Shang Yonggui."

Liu Ruoqiu couldn't help looking at Zhang Jingyu, Zhang Jingyu nodded and said: "She's right, if you really want to come, we welcome you, go and fill out the roster."

Liu Ruoqiu heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the words, and thanked them repeatedly, they went to the side to fill out the roster.

When Liu Ruoqiu went out, all the people came to Zhang Jingyu's table, "I didn't expect this girl from the Liu family to be quite courageous." Shen Hongxiu said, "She just came back, and she dared to go to the academy to sign up without her family behind her back."

Zhang Jingyu said: "I think this girl looks thin and weak, but she has a tough temper, but the Liu family probably won't like such a temper."

Xu Xinyu asked: "Then can she come to the academy in a few days?"

Zhang Jingyu sighed, "It's up to her, we can't help her."

Liu Ruoqiu's handwriting is not good-looking, each stroke is very blunt, and the girls here probably all had better-looking handwriting when they were ten years old.

But no one laughed at her. For a girl who was raised in the countryside since she was a child and had no chance to study, if she can learn to read and have some basic medical knowledge, she is already very remarkable.

When Liu Ruoqiu returned to Liu's house and stepped into the gate, she was taken aback by the girl who came up to welcome her, "Girl, you are back!"

"What's the matter? I... told my mother when I went out." Liu Ruoqiu was still not used to having a girl waiting by her side, this little girl was given to her by her mother on the first day back.There was nothing wrong with anything else, it was just that she talked too much, and the constant chatter gave her a headache, so she didn't take her with her when she went out in the morning.

The girl said: "The master just came back, and he asked where you went when he opened his mouth? I heard that you went out, so you lost your temper."

Liu Ruoqiu was slightly startled, and said: "I'm going to see my father right now."

When the two stepped into the courtyard, they saw Liu Ruxia coming towards them, and naturally Liu Ruxia also saw her, and both of them stopped.

After a while, Liu Ruxia walked over slowly with a gentle smile on her face, and said softly: "Second Sister is back? Where have you been, Daddy is looking for you."

Liu Ruoqiu said in a low voice: "I see, thank you Eldest Sister, I'll go right away."

Liu Ruxia's eyes lingered on Liu Ruoqiu's face for a moment, and said softly: "My sister has suffered all these years, I am sorry for you. If there is anything, just come to me, I will never refuse if I can help you. I hope you can forgive me, okay?"

Liu Ruoqiu shook her head and said: "Elder Sister is serious, these are not your fault."

"In the end it's because of me..." Liu Ruxia sighed, "Second sister has been avoiding me these days when she came back, it really doesn't have to be so. After all, I'm the one who took up your position. The Liu family is your home , don’t let yourself be wronged.”

Liu Ruoqiu didn't know what else to say, so she could only say: "I'll go see my father first."

"Go." Liu Ruxia smiled.

The two passed by, one went outside and the other went to the inner courtyard.

She didn't have any resentment towards Liu Ruoxia, but it was obviously impossible for her to get along with her as close as her biological sister.

She didn't want to target Liu Ruxia, but she also didn't want to get close to her. Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to keep the river water in check?A few days ago, Liu Ruxia seemed to think the same way, but she didn't know why she suddenly came forward to show her friendship today?

"Father."

Liu Ruoqiu stepped into Liu Shangshu's study room, Liu Shangshu who was reading a book raised his head and saw his daughter standing at the door couldn't help frowning.

"Where did you go today?" Liu Shangshu asked.

Liu Ruoqiu said in a low voice: "I... went to Anlan Academy."

boom!
Liu Shangshu slammed the book in his hand on the table, and said coldly, "Who told you to go? Did I tell you that you don't have to go to Anlan Academy?"

Liu Ruoqiu bit the corner of her lips, raised her head to meet Liu Shangshu's eyes, and said, "But, I want to go."

"Presumptuous!" Liu Shangshu scolded angrily, "Do you want to disobey your own father just after you came back? You grew up in the countryside all these years, it's time for you to learn etiquette and rules, and it's because you don't know how to be polite if your family invites you to teach you these things. Going outside is embarrassing and embarrassing. Why are you rushing out? Now you’re not in the countryside, and your daughter’s family doesn’t have parents who allow her to show her face, so how decent is that!”

Liu Ruoqiu said in a low voice: "Father, I will learn the etiquette rules taught by the master."

Liu Shangshu calmed down a little, and said in a deep voice: "It's good that you know, your background is inferior to other girls, and at this age, you don't need to waste time learning those things. It is helpful to learn the rules thoroughly. Just look like this, just don't lose face to the Liu family."

Liu Ruoqiu's heart sank slightly, she understood that her father still did not allow her to go to Anlan Academy.

But Liu Shangshu thought that she had listened to it and didn't want to say anything more, so he waved his hand and said, "Go on, your mother is sick now, you should learn from Ru Xia how to take care of your daughter's family."

Seeing his daughter like this, Liu Shangshu still had some headaches. How could the girl from the Liu family look so sallow and emaciated?I can only comfort myself in my heart, it is unavoidable that I just came back, it is a bit ugly, maybe I will be able to raise it in a few days.

Liu Ruoqiu said: "Father, I..."

"Go out." Liu Shangshu frowned and said in a deep voice.

Liu Ruoqiu was silent for a moment, then lowered her head and said: "Yes, father."
