The Ups and Downs of Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 13
As soon as Fang Xiu prepared the meal, she seemed to hear the child's voice. She thought it was an auditory hallucination, but soon, she heard Fei Yu's voice.

"Mother!" Fei Yu happily entered the kitchen, followed by Si Yuan and San Dong.

"Why are you here? Didn't mother tell you not to run around at will?" Fang Xiu was shocked. Although Master He is not a vicious person, it doesn't mean that the servants can exceed the rules.

"Ms. Fang, don't be nervous. The adults brought them here. The adults said that they will eat with the two children tonight. Let me tell you, you should prepare more dishes that the children like." Sandong also did not expect the adults to bring them with them. The child comes here.

Fang Xiuyi couldn't figure out why this He Huai'an would do such a thing.

"That will cause trouble for adults. However, I have prepared the children's meals and they are heating up at home. I just bring them here, otherwise I won't be able to put them until tomorrow."

"Then you go quickly. It just so happens that the adults said that they want to see if Siyuan's handwriting has improved."

"Siyuan, Feiyu, be good, don't make your lord difficult."

"Understood, mother!"

Fang Xiuyi didn't want to get too involved with this lord, since he's not from the same world, wouldn't it be good to just be a passer-by?Depressedly, she packed all the food into the food box and gave it to Sandong. Fortunately, Master Shangshu didn't let her in to set the dishes, otherwise it would be a bit embarrassing, in front of her own children.However, Master Shangshu may have realized that after the meal, he called Fang Xiuyi to the study.

When Fang Xiu entered, He Huai'an was playing with something in his hand.

"grown ups!"

"Sit!" He Huai'an looked up at Fang Xiuyi, she was still dressed in a cloth dress, but for some reason this cook always looked worried. Could it be that she was dissatisfied with the Shangshufu or the job?
"Thank you, sir!" Fang Xiuyi didn't dare to sit down, Sandong and Banxia were standing beside her, she was nothing special.

"Mr. Fang, I like your two children very much, and I want to teach them something myself. I wonder what you think?" He Huai'an handed the piece in his hand to Fang Xiuyi, "This is a jade pendant carved by Fei Yu for me. He is very talented. I want to teach him how to paint, and I will find a master for him next year. In addition, I have discussed with Siyuan that I want to teach him how to play the piano. But they all said they would ask you about it. "

I mean a ghost!I really don't know what kind of nerve Master Shang Shu made a mistake, he wants to teach her two children, isn't he busy?Or is it because this Master Shangshu is too lonely and wants to find someone to accompany him?However, there must be something wrong with this broken sleeve, right?After all, the looks of Siyuan and Feiyu are really not ordinary.She looked at He Huai'an, and the other party was looking back at her, his eyes were very clear, there was no hint of lewdness, could it be that he was thinking too much?Looking at the children again, the two children looked at her expectantly.That's right, this is something that many people can't ask for, but now it falls on her body, which is not a good thing.

"Thank you, my lord, for your kindness, but this matter has a lot to do with it. I want to talk to the children."

Except for the two children, everyone else was a little surprised. They originally thought that the other party would definitely agree to such a good thing, but in fact they were rejected. It was almost the same as rejection after thinking about it.

"I don't mean anything else, I just like them, and they are very talented, it's a waste to follow you." He Huai'an didn't give Fang Xiu any favors at all, and this was the first woman to reject him. "If you agree, from tomorrow onwards, they will have dinner with me, and you will take them back at Haishi."

Fang Xiu took a look at the jade pendant in her hand, it was half the size of a palm, with a cluster of orchids on it, a few auspicious clouds behind it, and a dark green silk thread tied on it, this knot was taught to Fei Yu by her, it was her previous life One of the few Chinese knots I learned - the ice flower knot.She returned the jade pendant to He Huai'an, this little guy, who took something from others and gave it to others as a gift.

"I also think that this jade pendant is very good, thank you for not dislike it."

"Okay, you can take them back, you don't need to wait at night." He Huai'an didn't want to be familiar with such ignorant women.

After Fang Xiu thanked He Huai'an, she took the children back. It was still early, so she asked the children to do their homework, washed the changed clothes and sheets, and cleaned the kitchen thoroughly before talking about it with the children. matter.

"Mother, don't you want us to get close to adults?" Siyuan was calmed by Fei Yu, and could see his mother's scruples.

"Well, that's what I think." Fang Xiuyi touched the faces of the two children respectively, "We are a common people's family, and your father has passed away, so it's just us three. Constant property. The rich and powerful not only hold the power of life and death, but we are not qualified to be equal to them. We live in the Shangshufu, and our mother has received a lot of rewards, but these are all given to us by others. People may have to take it all back in a single thought. Therefore, the best attitude we have towards them is to look at them from afar."

"Then we won't be able to learn from the adults?" Fei Yu's face was obviously disappointed, she really liked the adults.

"Feiyu, what mother said is right. Although adults are willing to teach us, it is very dangerous, because in this way we will be exposed to others." Siyuan understands what his mother means. Do you know how many people are watching.

"Okay then, I'll listen to mother and elder brother." Although Fei Yu was a little bit reluctant, adults were still not as important as family members.

Fang Xiuyi knew the disappointment of the children, and he had thought about letting them learn some specialty before. People in ancient times seemed to be very good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. explain.Some time ago, I was worried about finding a teacher, but now it's good, because such a famous teacher came, and I was a little scared.But, let's just give up, and I'm a little unwilling.

"In this way, my dears, tomorrow mother will go and discuss a few conditions with the adults. If he agrees, you can learn happily. If he doesn't agree, then we will make another plan, and mother will definitely find a good one for you." Teacher's."

"Mom, what's the condition?"

"I'll talk to an adult first tomorrow. If it works, we'll talk about it later."

After breakfast the next day, Fang Xiuyi plucked up the courage to tell Sandong that he wanted to see the adults, and of course Sandong was happy to see it happen. For such well-behaved children, the adults ate an extra bowl of rice yesterday. Woolen cloth.

After getting permission, Fang Xiu entered the study room. Today's Master Shangshu is dressed in white, with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, as if he walked out of a painting, with a buoyant air.

"grown ups."

"Why, figured it out?" He Huai'an sat on the chair and said with confidence.

"The two children in the family are favored by adults. We are really lucky in our lives. To tell you the truth, a while ago, I was thinking of finding a teacher for them to teach them. , but I also hope that they can learn something. When I heard the adults say it yesterday, I suspected it was in a dream..." Fang Xiuyi was about to divert his thoughts, but was interrupted by the Lord Shangshu.

"A lot of nonsense for no reason, why?"

"Ahem, my lord, I'm very glad that my lord can teach the children in person, but I have an unfeeling request, and I hope my lord can understand."

"tell me the story."

"It is their good fortune that the adults teach the children. However, the adults have high positions and are well-known in the government and the public, but I am just a commoner's wife. I have been a cook in the Shangshu Mansion since the adults did not give up. So, if the children are here Studying, I hope adults don't spread it, after going out of this door, they are just two ignorant children of Chef Fang."

He Huai'an froze, and even Sandong took a few extra glances at Fang Xiuyi.Master Shang Shu's teachings, other people would like to be known by the whole world, and with your master's guidance, many people will look at them differently, this is good, I am afraid that others will know.

"What? Fang, do you think I am not worthy to teach your two children?" Lord Shang Shu's tone could not hear any obvious anger.

"Don't dare. My lord should be a minister at such an age. He must be a talented person. Don't talk about pointing out my child. If you dare to say a word, I am afraid that you will not give up in front of the emperor. But, as I said just now, our status It’s too low, I’m afraid I won’t be able to prevent other people’s unwarranted suspicion.”

"Mr. Fang, do you know how to write the word shameless? You want to get my guidance and keep away from my right and wrong. Do you think there is such a good thing in the world?" He Huai'an felt that he had to re-examine the cook in front of him. , After meeting several times, she always hides herself, and now she finally shows her fox tail.

"Don't dare." Fang Xiu could tell that she must have offended the Lord Shangshu.But I can’t control that much anymore. Anyway, it’s an offense to refuse directly, and it’s an offense to negotiate conditions like this. a city.

"Why? Do you think it's not bad to stay in Shangshu's Mansion, the owner is kind and takes care of you, so you have the courage to speculate on my thoughts? But a mere cook contradicted me?!" He Huai'an thought it was true. It is a great shame, he has suffered a lot of suspicion and ridicule in the past, but it was all encountered by him in political affairs and scheming, but now he is facing the contempt of a little cook who he doesn't pay attention to at all, no matter how old he is. It is inevitable that I will be a little bit stuck.

"Don't dare, my lord is the master, and I'm just a servant." Fang Xiuyi also had a little temper at this time, thinking that she had been obedient and bullied all these years, and her self-esteem had almost been polished away.But even today it seems that a little bit of dignity has been regained, but this dignity came at the wrong time, forget it, at worst, he will be kicked out of the house and start from scratch.At most, it was just one life, but when she died, she would definitely be with her children, and she didn't want them to have a harder life after she died.

"My lord, Chen Liu is back, and I have something to report." Just in time, Ban Xia appeared, breaking the solemn atmosphere.

"Sandong, I can't afford such a servant, let her go." He Huai'an quickly calmed down, why should he bother with a cook, lowered his status for nothing, and messed up his rules.

"My lord!" Both Sandong and Banxia yelled. To be honest, it's rare to meet such a cook that everyone is satisfied with in these years. The previous cooks only worked for three months at most. This cook Fang , Good craftsmanship, good personality, the key is the rules, if this one is gone, where can I find another one like this?

"Why? Reluctant? Then you guys go together."

Now, Sandong and Banxia were dumbfounded.

"My lord, don't make things difficult for Sandong and Banxia. Thank you for taking care of me for such a long time, and thank you for your mercy. My lord has already held an important position and is an important minister of the emperor. Then I wish you good health." Fang Xiuyi's blessing It is also from the heart, after all, my life here is the most comfortable in these years.She knelt down and saluted, then went out, San Dong glanced at the lord, and followed.
