Chapter 38 Enrollment

I don't know if it's a coincidence or something else.The day Xiaodong entered school was the first day of September.

It is the same as the previous registration date after the end of summer vacation.

In the first few days, Mrs. Hu and the maids were busy packing up, the clothes to wear to school, the paper and pens to use, and the snacks to eat—only the snack boxes, and Mrs. Hu picked four or five, and finally chose Still the most unassuming, boxy snack box ever.The snacks inside also took a lot of thought, one is to choose what Xiaodong likes to eat, and the other is to make the snacks not big enough to fill his stomach.It can't be too sweet, or your throat won't be able to bear it after eating.It can't be too dry, otherwise, if you drink tea after eating, you will have to go to the latrine.Can't drop scum, can't...

Those who knew said it was going to school, but those who didn't know thought it was going to leave their hometown to escape famine.

Shen Qiang's nervousness was no less than that of Hu's, and she had already picked out a bunch of clothes several times.

"Which one do you think is better?"

Xiaodong held the Book of Songs in her arms, and pointed to the one in her left hand: "This one is pretty good."

It was pink.

Shen Qiang hesitated for a moment: "Pink... doesn't seem too solemn."

Xiaodong then pointed to her right hand again: "This one is also very good."

The blue color must be solemn, but Shen Qiang said again: "But I look yellowish in this color... If Sister Fang sees it, she might think I'm sick."

Xiaodong turned his face aside: "Then you pick and choose carefully."

Yao Jinfeng...she was the exact opposite of Shen Qiang.Shen Qiang took going to school too seriously, and she didn't take it too seriously.

Xiaodong did ask An Wang about whether Yao Jinfeng will return home or not.Wang An just smiled, and then the topic got sidetracked unknowingly.

Xiaodong can only comfort herself, it's not her fault that people speak lightly, whoever made her short or young.

She also asked Yao Jinfeng, insinuatingly, if she was happy in the capital, if she wanted to go back to her hometown of Suizhou, and so on.As Xiaodong expected, Yao Jinfeng complained vehemently. The capital is stuffy, there are many people in the capital, and the rules in the capital are strict. Let her sit on the side of the horse, and the servants lead the horse around in the field, and so on.But when Xiaodong asked her if she wanted to ask Suizhou that she could speak to King An on Yao Jinfeng's behalf, Yao Jinfeng closed his mouth, resting his chin in a daze.

The color of impatiens dyed on her nails has gradually faded, and now it is a faint rose color, and her face has not been applied with makeup, but it is still unsettlingly beautiful.

Xiaodong waited for her to say that she wanted to go back to her hometown, but she suddenly turned her head and said with a smile, "I won't go back."

Xiaodong managed to avoid losing his waist.

"why?"

"No matter how good my hometown is, I can't guard my hometown forever." She poked Xiaodong's nose: "Little girl, you don't understand."

Who doesn't understand?

Does Yao Jinfeng know how many troubles she will cause when entering the palace with her personality?

Xiaodong really wanted to turn into a roaring horse, grab her and shake her desperately, maybe he could shake her head soberly.

Everything must be planned in advance, otherwise it will be too late to respond when trouble comes to your door.

Judging by Yao Jinfeng's glamorous appearance, even if she doesn't take the initiative to find trouble, trouble will take the initiative to find her.

Xiaodong finds it strange to be here.

With his father's calm, wise, black belly, he shouldn't have left such a ticking time bomb in the house.

Speaking of this, I have to mention Aunt Ming.Although we all live under the same roof—but the roof of Prince An’s Mansion is a bit big, Xiaodong rarely sees her—I have met her twice at King An’s place, and the charming Aunt Ming stands behind King An with respect and respect. Observe the nose and the mind, be as honest as possible.At first Xiaodong thought that she could really pretend, but later found that she was not.

She is afraid of King An.

Xiaodong pondered for a few days but couldn't figure it out, what did this seemingly gentle and refined prince of his family do to make Aunt Ming so afraid of him?

Xiaodong had a long dream. In the dream, she was going to take an exam, but when she got to school, she couldn’t find which exam room she was supposed to be in. She ran from upstairs to downstairs, asking door by door, and everyone in the classroom had blurred faces. , with an indifferent attitude, they all told her that this is not the place for her to come.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Xiaodong was about to die of anxiety.

Then, suddenly, she stepped on the stairs and fell down.

Xiaodong's body convulsed slightly, as if he had really fallen from a height, and woke up with soreness all over his body.

She didn't fall, but her sleeping position was too strange, her feet were pinned together, her arms were sore and numb under the pressure of her own body.

It was still dark outside.

Hong Ling helped Xiaodong get up to wash and change clothes, and there was a cool tide in the air.

"Is it raining outside?"

"It's been in the middle of the night, and it hasn't stopped yet."

The gauze pasted on the window has been exposed to the sun and wind for most of the summer, and its color has faded, and the patterns on it are so pale that the original appearance cannot be seen clearly.The sound of pattering rain came in from outside, Xiaodong put his face on the window screen and looked out, it was so hazy and dim that he couldn't see anything clearly.

Yes, today is the day she is going to school.

Maybe it's because of the wrong sleeping position, or maybe it's because the running and anxiety in the dream consumes too much mental energy, Xiaodong looks listless and can't get any energy up at all.

Hu thought she was still worried about going to school, coaxed and comforted her for a long time, sent her, Shen Qiang and Yao Jinfeng to the carriage together, and told Hong Ling to be careful and not to make mistakes.

Before the car left, Zhao Lu came over.

He knocked on the car wall below.

"younger sister?"

Xiaodong lifts the curtain of the car to look at him.

Zhao Lu looked around and handed her a small round box.

"what is this?"

"Good thing, if you feel drowsy while listening to the class, put this on your nose and wipe it on your temples, and you will be refreshed."

Xiaodong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, took it over, and smiled at him: "Thank you brother."

Zhao Lu waved his hand at her and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, the teachers in the school don't beat people easily. If you need something, you can ask for it from the princesses, or you can send someone to find me."

He got into the carriage in front, Xiaodong also retracted his head, opened the small box in his hand a little, and smelled a faint mint smell.

Really refreshing.

Does Zhao Lu often feel sleepy during class?Otherwise, how could there be such a good thing for emergency rescue?
Xiaodong put the small box into his arms.

Shen Qiang's face was pale, her legs were tightly together, and she was muttering something.Yao Jinfeng, on the other hand, was in high spirits, opening the curtain to look outside from time to time.

It was getting brighter and the rain continued.

In the courtyard of Jiyutang, the flowers and trees are scattered, and the leaves are washed green and shiny by the rain, and they are full of energy.Cuiniang, the female official who led the way, led them to meet the female official in charge of Jiyutang.

Xiaodong had heard of Ou Lanying's reputation a long time ago.She used to be a talented woman who was famous in the capital, but it was a pity that her fate was not good, so she engaged in a marriage, and the man died of a sudden illness. She vowed not to remarry. Jiyutang is also responsible for teaching piano lessons.
