Chapter 15
Thinking of her grandson, Ms. Zhao felt it was hard to express herself.

When Shen Lin'an wants to read and write, he either complains that he is hungry or tired, or he wants to take a pee, relieve himself, or...

In short, he has endless things to do and endless illnesses.

I just don’t feel like writing.

At first, Ms. Zhao wanted to follow the child's nature and wait until the child was happy to play, then he could calm down and study.

Then...she realized that she was too naive.

The child seemed to have no time to calm down.

Like now.

He just ate two pieces of iced watermelon because he thought the weather was too hot, and then he started complaining of a stomachache...

Rubbing the center of her brows, Zhao suppressed the irritability in her heart: "You rest first, I have something to go out, and I will practice calligraphy with you when I come back."

"Okay..." Shen Linan said weakly.

Hearing his weak answer, Mrs. Zhao frowned.

Could it be that she blamed the child wrongly?Does he really have a stomachache?
Thinking of this possibility, she hurriedly asked her servants to pass on to the doctor, while she hurriedly walked towards Leng Lanzhi's Jinxiu Garden.

Although the Pingnan Marquis Mansion sounded very noble, and her husband also inherited the title and became a third-rank Marquis, but... he had no real power.

As for Shen Yizhi's repeated military exploits over the years, he was only granted the honor of being a [-]-rank Chinese military mansion.

Leng Lanzhi's grandfather conquered the world on horseback. After the world was stabilized, he began to weaken the power of generals. Unless there are special circumstances, generals will never be able to take power.

Zhao's knowledge was not enough to see through this, but she could feel the decline of Pingnan Hou Mansion.

Therefore, she desperately wanted to get acquainted with the wives of important officials in the court to pave the way for her son.

However, all those ladies have high standards. Although she is a third-grade imperial wife, no one is willing to play with her, and few people visit her on weekdays.

Occasionally a few people came to the door, but they were not very popular, and she didn't care about their identities at all.

Now, with great difficulty, a family member of a fourth-rank official has come. Although the other party has no orders, the rank of the Minister of the Household Department does not seem to be as high as that of Pingnanhou.

But, the other party has real power!

Mrs. Zhao thought, if she could get acquainted with the other party, it would be great to help her son abandon martial arts and follow literature...

When Mrs. Zhao came to Jinxiu Garden, Leng Lanzhi was studying He Hengyue's knowledge with great interest.

The reason was that she asked if Huang's He Hengyue had enlightenment?
Before Mrs. Huang could speak, He Qianqian suddenly replied: "Princess, Heng'er has already learned the Three Character Classic by himself, but he can only memorize it, and hasn't learned how to read."

Huang suddenly broke into a cold sweat and scolded: "Who allows you to speak without authorization in front of the princess?"

He Qianqian lowered her head, but it could be seen that she didn't feel that she had done something wrong, and she still had a small face, with dissatisfaction written all over her face.

There was a smile in Leng Lan's eyes.

This girl has been smart since she was a child, just like in the ruined temple back then, the little girl saw that those who pursued her were not good people, so she deliberately pointed in the opposite direction to lure them away.

Now... probably the little girl saw that she was a good person, and was deliberately creating opportunities for her younger brother.

She ignored the stubborn little girl and asked the confused boy, "Oh? Do you really know how to recite the Three Character Sutra?"

The little boy blushed and secretly glanced at his sister.

Although the little girl lowered her head, she seemed to feel the young man's gaze. She raised her eyes and blinked vigorously, and the young man said, "Return to the princess, I really will."

Huang was full of fear and did not see the communication between the siblings.

Leng Lanzhi pretended not to see the interaction between the siblings, and said indifferently: "Learn and listen."

The boy then opened his mouth: "At the beginning of human beings, nature is kind..."

At first, his voice was very low and his articulation was not clear.

But as he went to the back, he became more and more proficient at memorizing, and he became more and more confident.

When Mrs. Zhao came in, she happened to hear He Hengyue finish reciting the last few sentences: "Diligence pays off, but acting is useless. Take precautions, you should work hard."

She felt a little disdainful.

Her An'er has already memorized it and can even write the first few sentences.

Then I heard Leng Lanzhi ask: "Do you know what this means?"

The young man looked at his sister blankly, but saw that the little girl was also confused, so he could only shake his head honestly: "Princess, I don't know."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head in embarrassment, and the little girl was also enveloped in a sense of depression.

Leng Lanzhi took a sip of tea: "Didn't the person who taught you the Three Character Classic tell you what it means?"

"No...no..." The young man glanced at his sister again: "She...she probably doesn't know either."

"Oh?" The smile in Leng Lan's eyes could hardly be hidden: "I am very curious, which gentleman is so misleading, only teaching articles, but not responsible for solving doubts?"

"This... this..." He Hengyue didn't know how to answer.

Huang's heart was a little guilty: "Princess, this child hasn't started learning yet, probably he learned it by secretly listening to his brothers reciting it?"

The smile in Leng Lan's eyes dissipated, and he said indifferently: "Young Master of the Household Minister's Mansion, is he still not educated at the age of four? Ben Gong remembers that the children of ordinary official families can be educated at the age of three, right?"

Huang suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

What to learn from?

In the past few years, she wished she could throw this kid far away. It was a kindness of hers not to let him starve to death.

Just when Mr. Huang didn't know how to answer, He Qianqian answered again: "Back to the princess, I taught my brother the Three Character Classic. I learned it from my aunt, and my aunt is very talented."

Huang: "..."

Leng Lanzhi glanced at Huang Shi expressionlessly, and when his eyes fell on He Qianqian, he smiled again: "Oh? You can also recite?"

He Qianqian raised her head and said proudly: "Not only can I recite the Three Character Classic, but I can also recite the Disciple Rules! I can also recite many poems!"

Although the little girl is only seven years old, she has already grown a beautiful heart in the hard life day after day.

She vaguely understood that this was a huge opportunity.

As long as she can make this noble princess value her brother, she and her brother will no longer have to endure the cold eyes of the servants in the palace, the harsh treatment of their father and aunt, and they will no longer have to live a precarious life.

"Learn from me?" Leng Lanzhi put down his teacup and looked at the little girl with interest.

He Qianqian did not show any timidity, she opened and closed her pink lips, and first recited the "Three Character Classic" in its entirety, and then recited a few poems.

Among them, there are even two plaintive speeches written by women who complained about the palace.

The little girl obviously didn't understand the meaning, but that didn't stop her from remembering them.

Huang was a little restless.

Leng Lanzhi's beautiful face gradually became filled with a smile: "This girl is quite a wonderful person, Xiaorou, thank you."

Xiaorou gave the little girl two gold leaves.

Leng Lanzhi looked at the little girl with a smile, and asked: "I'm so boring here, and I'm short of a funny person, would you like to come and accompany me?"

He Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and didn't hesitate for a moment after reacting: "I do!"

Huang's complexion was a little ugly: "Princess, this...is this against the rules?"

Leng Lanzhi looked at her indifferently: "This Palace is the rules."

Huang immediately didn't dare to say anything.

In the courtyard, Mrs. Zhao only felt that the world view was subverted.

The official's wife, who she was always so fond of, actually treated her daughter-in-law so respectfully?

She found that she seemed to have to re-examine the weight of her daughter-in-law.
