Happy Wife Ying Ying

Chapter 34 Visiting Donglin
Mrs. Xie poked her on the forehead, "You just know how to eat!" He let out a long sigh.

Seeing her suddenly dazed, Yingruo became more and more puzzled.What on earth is her mother-in-law lamenting?

Yingruo's days were back to the state of soaking in the study, Chu Zi was very big-hearted and didn't care, but Xie was very worried.Judging by the strength of my youngest daughter, isn't she taking the exam at Lingshan Academy seriously?She was not afraid that her youngest daughter would not pass the exam, because she knew that since the establishment of Lingshan Academy, no woman had taken the exam.

In the blink of an eye, on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, the yamen was sealed, and the Xie family simply locked Chu Zijiu's study.

When Yingruo heard the single firecracker sound from time to time, she guessed that it was a mischievous masterpiece by a boy.Sitting in her yard, she fell into a state of boredom.

Both Xie Shi and Chu Qiaoruo were busy preparing the New Year's supplies, and completely ignored her.But she didn't want to go crazy with Chu Chengruo, so she could only tease the little turtle.Perhaps because of the cold, the little turtle's head had already shrunk into its shell, and it didn't want to talk to her at all.

"Woof..." Two dog barks instantly ignited Yingruo's spirit.She looked for the sound, and saw a small yellow figure squeezed in through the gap in the door.

Yingruo walked over cautiously, fearing that she would startle the little thing away by acting too aggressively. "Gold! You are gold! Ah! You seem to have grown up a lot!"

Jin Jin ran over, circled around her, and then rubbed against her feet.Her heart immediately softened into a puddle, and she bent down and hugged it.

Mrs. Xie happened to come out of the kitchen, and just in time to see this scene, she frowned, "Where did the dog come from? Throw it out!"

"No way, mother!" Yingruo hugged Jin Jin tightly, "This is from the old lady's house in the east! The old lady is so precious! I'll send it there right away!" As if opposed.

Chu Qiaoruo came out when she heard the movement, "It's rare for Yingying to like it, so let her play with it! If the clothes are dirty, I'll just wash them."

Mrs. Xie turned around and walked towards the kitchen, "Have you finished chopping the stuffing?"

Chu Qiaoruo hummed and followed in.

Yingruo played with Jinzi in the alley for a while before knocking on the door of Mrs. Yue's house. It was not the round-faced Bingqing who answered the door, but the long-faced Yurun. "Sister Yurun! It just ran to my house, and I sent it back!"

"Great! The master was talking about gold just now, and we are planning to look for it everywhere! Thank you so much, Miss Yingruo! It's cold outside! Come in quickly!" Yurun greeted warmly, and took the gold.

Yingruo hesitated, "Will it be too disturbing?"

Yurun said: "The master is playing chess alone, and Miss Yingruo came to talk with her."

Yingruo no longer hesitated and walked in.

Although the yard is about the same size as their home, it has a refreshing feeling because of the different layout.

There was only the east wing in the yard, and a flower stand was set up on the wall connecting with their house, and a swing was hung below it.

Yingruo was envious, but she didn't expect that the dignified old lady had a childlike innocence.No wonder people say old child old child!

A flower bed was set up in the center of the yard, which looked bare because it was winter.

There are two large tanks under the eaves. Yingruo guessed that they should be used to raise water lilies or goldfish.

"Sister Yurun, I just hugged Jinzi, and my hands are probably not clean. I'd better wash my hands before meeting my aunt!"

Yurun smiled and led her to the room in the East Wing to clean her hands before heading back to the main room.

Bingqing lifted the heavy curtain and welcomed Yingruo in.

Yingruo was even more stunned by the layout of the room.

The east room is connected with the living room, and a half-folded four-leaf screen was placed in place of the original wall.On the side of the living room, there is an Eight Immortals table and four chairs.In the east room, on the east wall is a rosewood wood shelf, and by the south window is a couch for a noble concubine.Against the north wall is a large Kang, on which are placed low tables.Mrs. Yue was sitting cross-legged on the big kang at the moment, meditating on the chessboard, and there was a well-dressed woman with gray hair standing under the kang.

Because of the movement of entering the door, Mrs. Yue and the old lady looked over together.

"Auntie!" Ying Ruojian yelled loudly, not daring to move too far.

"Hey! Is this the little doll from the New Year painting who ran down?" Mrs. Yue smiled and stretched her feet out of the kang.

The woman hurriedly bent down to put on her shoes.

Yingruo pursed her lips and blinked her big eyes, "Grandmother is such a noble person who forgets things! Didn't you know Yingruo so soon?"

Mrs. Yue came over and pulled her to her side, "Quick? It's been almost a month, and you haven't come to play with me."

Is this an old child's pettiness?

Yingruo hurriedly grinned, "Isn't this afraid of disturbing my aunt's cleanliness! My mother said, it's better to restrain children's hands and feet at home."

Mrs. Yue laughed loudly, "A Lin, look! This little girl speaks in a different way, doesn't she look like a little adult?"

Nanny Lin stepped forward and said with a smile, "That's right! Yulan County is really a place of outstanding people, no wonder the master chose to settle here."

Mrs. Yue said: "Which one did I choose? It wasn't that stinky boy...or the little girl is a pain in the ass! I heard that you are locked up at home and studying hard! Is this going to be a female champion?"

Yingruo said: "Daddy said that reading makes people understand."

"Then what books do you read?" Mrs. Yue dragged Yingruo to sit beside the imperial concubine's couch.

Yingruo said: "I can read all kinds of books! I have read all the books in Daddy's study. I don't want to take the number one scholar exam. I want to go to Lingshan Academy."

"Hey! Listen!" Mrs. Yue glanced at Nanny Lin, "How ambitious!"

Mother Lin said: "Old servant, I heard that if you want to take the entrance examination of Nalingshan Academy, you don't just need to know how to study! A gentleman also has to dabble in the six arts."

"Then what do you know?" Mrs. Yue asked Yingruo.

Yingruo said: "When Dad and Mom play chess, I will learn from them. I am good at chess!"

Mrs. Yue took an orange from the fruit plate on the table and stuffed it into Yingruo's little hand, "But I heard that playing chess doesn't count."

Yingruo caressed the orange, "Is it interesting for my aunt to play chess alone?"

"Huh?" Mrs. Yue's eyes flashed brightly, "They don't even know how to do it, so what can they do?"

Yingruo said: "Then I come to play chess with my aunt every day, can my aunt teach me how to play the piano?"

Mrs. Yue was startled, then laughed loudly, "There are a lot of ghosts!"

Not only does she know how to exchange, but she can also act pitifully. With her little expression, who can bear to refuse?

Yingruo blushed slightly, and pursed her lips, "Auntie doesn't want to teach me?"

　Happy weekend folks!
