Fair Lady

Shuyao didn't know what resentment and conflicts Zhen Dafu's family had after they returned to Daming Prefecture. She was very busy, and now she had another task, teaching Xiutao "Thousand Characters" and "Hundred Surnames".

Xiutao is almost seven years old this year. Although her status has not been resolved, and she has always called Shujie and the three as young master and young lady, but no one in the summer house treats her as a maid, and the servants also call her Xiutao girl.

Shujie and Shuyao originally wanted Xiutao and Shuyao to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Zheng, but Aunt Mei refused. If he wants to teach Xiutao the basics, it will definitely delay Shuyao.Both gentlemen were the husbands of the famous Gao Shuxiu. Aunt Mei felt that it was enough for Xiutao to be able to read, write, and count. Just like before, it was enough to learn from Shuyao and Shuwen.

Xiutao herself doesn't like learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she can't sit still, and she doesn't have the patience.Maybe it's because she often received customers with Aunt Mei since she was a child. When it comes to counting money, Xiao Xiutao likes arithmetic as much as Shuwen. She can remember the numbers and addition and subtraction methods Shuwen taught her. Nine multiplication formulas.Of course, she has been told by her mother every day that those Arabic numerals are special things taught by the wife to the young master and girl, and they can only be used in private and cannot be shown outside.Xiao Xiutao looked up at the sky and curled her lips: "Mother is too wordy!" Those fun numbers helped her calculate in her heart faster, and she doesn't like writing, let alone writing those Arabic numbers in front of outsiders. What's the point of showing off?

Shuyao especially likes to read, embroider, and practice calligraphy in the three-story pavilion in the garden...even if it's just for playing and resting.

Ever since she learned "Flying swallows stepping on lotus", Shuyao has never climbed the stairs when going up and down the pavilion.It's all flying up and down.For example, she and Xiutao were studying in the pavilion at the moment, and by the time Xiutao reached the third floor, she had already drank half a glass of goat's milk.

The funny thing is that at this time, Huohuo, who has always been sticky to Shuyao, hides without a trace, for fear of being caught by Shuyao to the third floor.Suffering from not being able to speak human words, otherwise Huo Huo really wanted to shout: "I have acrophobia! I have acrophobia!" Yao Huo, who dared not move in her arms, almost rolled her eyes and fainted.

No, Huohuo, who was enjoying the flowers in the garden, saw Shuyao and Xiutao walking towards the pavilion with baskets of pens and ink and snacks.She ran away in a blink of an eye, making Shuyao laugh and laugh, while Xiutao and Lanjin shed tears of sympathy for Huohuo, who would let such a "unscrupulous" and "bad taste" little master Woolen cloth?

Huohuo escaped from Shengtian, and slowed down his paw steps when he reached the gate of the garden, and took the most airy fox steps "swaggeringly".Then I saw the little maid Lu Jin leading Shu Qing and A Dai walking over.

Shu Qing warmly greeted: "Huo Huo, I brought you delicious snacks."

Huohuo raised his chin, and continued to walk away with the arrogant fox steps.Hmph, I'm a fox with integrity, I don't accept any sugar-coated bullets, let alone.No matter how delicious it is, has it ever been enhanced?

Adai was angry and funny: "Girl, look at the fire, hey, he's even dragged."

Shuqing sighed, how can a spirit beast, which symbolizes good fortune, be easy to please?But she really doesn't understand, what's so good about the three of Shuyao that they can keep Xiaoguai and Huohuo following them?After returning from Anguo Gongfu in the capital.She has often come to Xia Zhai in the past two years, but the two spirit beasts still ignore her.Could it be that she is really unlucky?

Well, maybe it is, otherwise why would the fiancé's family have undergone tremendous changes?

Two years ago, the father of Shuqing's fiancé Guo Jinnan was killed, and his family property was seized by his uncle. The orphans and widows defected to Xia's family and came to Yulin Town.Filled with righteous indignation, Xia Linyu and Zhou scolded Guo Jinnan's uncles whose "conscience was eaten by dogs", and then said nothing.

Guo Jinnan's mother and son are also strong people, and they didn't intend to stay in the Xia Mansion at first, but they just thought that after all, they were the relatives of their children, so they could have some kind of care when they came to Yulin.Guo's mother came out with her dowry and bought a small yard on the edge of Yulin Town, and bought [-] acres of land in the suburbs to collect rent. In addition, Guo's mother did needlework. Although she was not rich, she could still ensure food and clothing. Guo Jinnan Can continue to read.

……

In two months, Shuqing will be 13 years old. Guo's mother has proposed many times that Shuqing and Guo Jinnan will marry her when Shuqing and Ji are married.

Shuqing could tell that her parents and aunt Xia Ruoxue didn't want her to marry Guo Jinnan, but they didn't want to be repudiated as treacherous.

When the Guo family's mother and son first came to Yulin, Shuqing met Guo Jinnan once. He was only 14 years old at the time, but he could already see that he was elegant and elegant, and he looked upright and clear, and I heard that he was also good at writing.If it wasn't for his father's accident, this is really a good husband-in-law candidate.But now... Shuqing is very conflicted.

If Guo Jinnan hadn't been a filial piety, it would be fine if he could take the scientific examination in the spring of the year. As long as he could be named on the gold list, and his aunt and uncle's Anguo Gongfu would help him, there would be hope for him to marry Jiji two years later.

But in the spring of the first year, Guo Jinnan was still in the filial piety, so he must have missed the scientific examination and had to wait for another three years. None), not sure if it can be reversed.If Guo Jinnan fails the exam, then she will have to guard the [-] acres of land for the rest of her life as a little woman in the market.Good writing?Dazhou has a good atmosphere for studying and taking scientific examinations, and there are more people with good literary talents.

Gambling, Shuqing is like facing a gamble, and she doesn't know how to place the bet.But she knew that Xia Linyu and the Zhou family had been plotting to make Guo's mother and son resign by themselves.Mrs. Zhou has been talking about it recently. In the current situation, if Guo Jinnan can't go to high school, he might as well be the son of a rich businessman. Nothing is as real as money.

Shuqing was annoyed by Zhou's nagging in the mansion, so she went to Xiazhai to find Shuyao to get close. Shuqing also liked Xiazhai's garden and the three-story pavilion.

On the third floor of the pavilion, Shuqing saw that Shuyao was teaching Xiutao how to read, and couldn't help feeling that the three brothers and sisters of Shuyao treated Xiutao much better than her own cousin.After two years of hard work, Shuyao and the other three have treated her the best in the entire Xia Mansion, but they still maintain a slight distance from them.Shuyao, in particular, always has a kind of vigilance that seems to go deep into her bones.

"Sister Yao'er, Master Jingxuan from Famen Temple in the capital came to Yuquan Temple to give a lecture. Three days later, he opened the altar and set up a lecture. I heard that there are two more predestined people who can meet Master Jingxuan this time. Sister Yaoer , the opportunity is rare, I am going to listen to it, do you want to go too?"

Master Jingxuan is an eminent monk who is respected by the royal family. If you can meet him as a "destined person", you will benefit a lot even if you mention a few words. This "benefit" not only refers to Buddhist teachings, but also Include a lot. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.
