Chapter 17
"Miss, do you think there's anything wrong with what I said?"

Shen Zhaoxian looked at Fu Yao who was silent and asked with some confusion whether there was something wrong with his book.

Fu Yao shook her head. The heavy books were weighing on her hands, and a huge mountain seemed to be weighing on her heart, making her breathless. She was not good at reading!

At the beginning, she thought that Shen Zhaoxian, who was a civil servant, might have some good ideas that could make her smarter, but she didn't expect...

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the same as before. It turns out that I still have to study!

Shen Zhaoxian is now a little unsure of the eldest girl's attitude, and he doesn't know whether she likes his arrangement. He feels very uneasy. After all, the eldest girl is also the first person he teaches.

He had no experience in this area before, and what he said before was just a whim. What he saw and heard during the day, coupled with the eldest girl's previous sad look, made him feel compassionate.

Otherwise, it would be rare for Shen Zhaoxian to take the initiative to teach someone.

Fu Yao put the book away, looked at the person in front of her with despair in her eyes, and asked again without giving up: "Master Shen, do you really just want me to study, are there no other ways?"

Shen Zhaoxian nodded and said in a firm tone, "Seriously, only by laying a solid foundation can you go a long way. Old girls can read but don't understand the meaning of the words in the book, so they have to read more. As the saying goes, you can read a book a hundred times. Righteousness will manifest itself.”

The righteous words reached her ears, and Fu Yao couldn't help but snort a few times. If studying was really useful, she wouldn't be scorned by others even now.

It seemed that Shen Zhaoxian was just a dullard who only knew how to study. Fu Yao was a little caught off guard. She didn't expect that she might also see the wrong person.

Judging from his previous performance, Shen Zhaoxian is obviously a smart person, but now it seems that he is nothing more than that...

Shen Zhaoxian didn't know what Fu Yao was thinking at this moment. He only knew that the woman in front of him frowned, shook his head, and felt regretful. He didn't know what he was thinking.

In fact, he was also full of doubts in his heart. It was clear that the girl in front of him looked smart and could even use her powers of observation to explain why she couldn't read.

Logically speaking, isn’t reading the simplest thing?
If Fu Yao heard Shen Zhaoxian's thoughts, he would definitely give Shen Zhaoxian another slap in the face. Look, are these human words?

What does it mean to study is the simplest thing in the world? If it is really so simple, then why are there still people who fail to pass the exam?
In her opinion, reading is clearly the most difficult thing in the world, and just getting up early every day is already very torturous.

Fu Yao thought so, feeling extremely desperate. However, the next second she received even more desperate news.

"Miss Shen, if Shen believes that hard work can make up for one's weakness, since it was passed down from the sages, there must be some truth to it." Shen Zhaoxian thought for a moment and then slowly said, "In this case, the eldest daughter followed the example of the ancients, getting up early every day and reading the Four Books and Five Classics for a while. , just think that hard work can make up for weakness."

The words spoken by an extremely gentle person were not words that people could listen to. She didn't know what others thought, but Fu Yao knew for herself that Shen Zhaoxian was definitely a demon sent by God to torture her.

Because he didn't do anything that humans do.

Shen Zhaoxian naturally saw the deep resentment in the eyes of the girl in front of him, but when he thought of everything before, he put away all the few pity in his heart.How can you soar into the sky without going through some burning in the fire.

Seeing Shen Zhaoxian's unchanging expression, Fu Yao snorted coldly. She no longer wanted to stay in this painful place. She clenched the book in her hand, turned around and crawled towards the dog hole, as if she really didn't want to see him. To the villain.

Shen Zhaoxian's charming look that belonged to his daughter's family fell into Shen Zhaoxian's eyes. He slightly raised the corners of his lips and shook his head silently.

He didn't want to ask the eldest girl to do something that was painful to her right away. However, he knew too little about the eldest girl and didn't know how far she had reached in studying. He could only start with the simplest reading.

When they get to know each other better in the future, maybe they can change their relationship. The cool breeze blew for an unknown amount of time before Shen Zhaoxian returned to the house from the backyard.

The reason why an excellent person is excellent is not only his unique intelligence, but also his constant efforts. No, the lights in Qingwuyuan's study room burned until midnight before they were extinguished.

Fu Yao didn't know what others were doing. She returned to the house angrily and threw the thick book aside. As if she was upset, she picked it up and threw it away.

It wasn't until she couldn't see the book that she felt a lot more comfortable. She really didn't want to read at all. Maybe when she was a child, Fu Yao liked the fragrance of ink on books.

But later, she didn't like it at all. She just wanted to stay away from books and wished that we would never see each other again in this life. It was a pity that Fu Yao's idea was destined to be impossible to realize. Just now, they spend every day All must be in contact with books.

The anger in her heart gradually subsided and reason returned to her body. Fu Yao slowly stood up straight and walked towards the discarded books. In any case, since she had promised Shen Zhaoxian, she had to do this.

You still have to do what you promise others!
As soon as dawn broke, Shen Zhaoxian stood in the corner near Anheyuan. Forget it at night, Anheyuan and Qingwuyuan were both remote courtyards.

But you can't act recklessly during the day. If others see even a little bit, the rumors that will follow will swallow Shen Zhaoxian and Fu Yao completely in an instant.

Not long after, Shen Zhaoxian heard the sound of Lang Lang reading next door. The owner of the sound seemed not to be completely awake, and his tone was mixed with a little sleepiness.

The cold air hit her face, and Fu Yao couldn't help but rub her red cheeks. The damp and cold air made her sleepy, and she gradually became very awake, and her voice became louder.

"Girl, get ready in the morning!"

Guyu walked towards Fu Yao leisurely, but there was a murmur in his heart. He didn't know if the girl was possessed by an evil spirit today, or if there was some evil spirit at work. The eldest girl in their family actually got up early, without even asking herself to rush her.

It's a rare sight!
In particular, the girl actually woke up and learned to study, which was a rare thing in a hundred years. Although she didn't understand the reason, since the girl was determined to become stronger, as a slave, she couldn't hold the girl back.

For this reason, Guyu also actively supported and specially prepared a sumptuous breakfast for the eldest girl.

Until the sound of reading beside the wall completely disappeared, Shen Zhaoxian pursed his lips, showed a rare smile, and turned around to leave.
