Chapter 167: Swordsmanship (three/four)
"Miss, someone is looking for you at the door." Someone reported from a distance.
"okay!"
Zhou Xia trot all the way to the door of the manor, but when she saw who the door was, she looked disappointed and stopped.
The woman at the door hurriedly said, "Xia Xia, don't you invite me in?"
Zhou Xia raised her small face, looked at the sky, with a boring expression, and she didn't even bother to pay attention to her: "You must have persuaded me to go to this meeting and that meeting again this time. Or you just taught me that I didn't dress well and that I was irregular. That's boring..."
Tao Cui said helplessly: "I did it all for your own good! This time, I know that Beicheng will hold a flower viewing party again. There are so many young talents at the meeting. I heard that there will be royal people coming? You won't follow me. Do you know a few together?"
Zhou Xia rolled her eyes: "No, I have to behave better recently. Nowhere, no, go!"
Tao Cui stomped and said: "You! I only mentioned you because of the love we knew since we were young. You might as well go out with me to get to know more good men instead of playing in this village. Seeing your gray-headed face, have you climbed a tree again? You also lifted up your skirt and tied it on your waist, revealing your thighs!"
This Tao Cui is the daughter of Zhou Xia’s nursing mother. She is only two years older than Zhou Xia. His family is just a commoner. But because his parents work as servants in Zhou’s house and have a good relationship with the main family, Tao Cui also has some contact with the upper class. Social opportunity.
She is actually not eligible to participate in this flower viewing party, but if Zhou Xia takes her there, she can, so she wants to persuade Zhou Xia to take her to the flower viewing party.
Tao Cui is not very pleased with Zhou Xia, mainly because she always speaks of Zhou Xia as her sister in a serious manner. This is also her way to maintain a good image in front of the host's house, but Zhou Xia herself does not buy it at all.
When I was young, when I was a little older, Zhou Xia and Tao Cui were still good sisters playing together. But later Zhou Xia had to go to class and had to learn a lot of things, so she didn't have much time to play with Tao Cui. Naturally, Tao Cui's family would not send Tao Cui to school, so she asked her to help with housework at home and learn some female red.
This makes the gap between the two people getting bigger and bigger.
Zhou Tianxia is very wealthy and learns very quickly. Every one of her teachers praised her for being agile and acquainted with analogies, she is truly a genius.
Zhou Xia also has a wide range of interests and has followed a lot of teachers, whether it is the orthodox knowledge in Ge's College or the partial knowledge of various disciplines, she is interested.
But among them, Zhou Xia's favorite is martial arts, especially swordsmanship.
She had practiced some rough and shallow martial arts for physical fitness, and then quickly focused on swordsmanship. Human swordsmanship was handed down by the great sword master Kong Yu 30 years ago. After many years of inheritance and evolution, it has now evolved into a small genre.
Although the spread of swordsmanship is far less extensive than that of Lin Meng's Five Beasts, its advantage lies in the use of metal weapons, so it is very lethal. But because of the use of metal weapons, ordinary people absolutely cannot afford it, and generally only aristocratic families are qualified to study.
Knowing that Beicheng is the royal capital of Zhuang State, and Zhuang State is the most powerful vassal state today, there are quite a few masters of swordsmanship in the city. Zhou Xia begged her father to invite the most famous swordsman to teach her.
When the swordsmanship teacher first came to Zhou's house, he thought it was an easy and boring job, but it was nothing more than collecting a lot of money to teach a little girl to play with swords, which was a waste of his talent.
As a result, after really teaching Zhou Xia, he realized that this girl even had a superb talent in martial arts.
Zhou Xia studied with a swordsman instructor for three years. After three years, her swordsmanship has already achieved a little success. Fighting peers is the same as cutting melons and vegetables.
You must know that as a woman, Zhou Xia was originally less powerful than a man, not to mention that she was only 16 years old.
The swordsmanship teacher praised Zhou Xia, saying that she was a rare swordsman genius in a century.
However, Zhou Xia was not known for her cleverness and swordsmanship. Her reputation on the other hand far surpassed her other strengths, that is, appearance.
Zhou Xia's appearance is very beautiful. When she was a child, her father's colleagues occasionally saw her at home. They were all surprised and praised her for her cuteness. Before she was thirteen or four years old, and she hadn't fully grown up, the beautiful reputation of Zhou's daughter spread throughout the city of Zhibei, even in other parts of the country.
There are even so-called celebrities who say that when Zhou Xia grows up, she will definitely be a peerless beauty.
Since she has such an evaluation, even people from abroad will come to see her admiringly.
And everyone who saw her was convinced and praised her appearance.
But Zhou Xia didn't like such a reputation very much.
Zhou Xia's family was superior since she was a child, and her talents were far superior to ordinary people. She was somewhat arrogant. She looked down on those suitors who came because of fame and beauty, but found them particularly annoying.
She was only thinking about how to do what she thought was interesting, rather than dealing with all kinds of boring people.
Once, Zhou's mother complained that she practiced martial arts every day, and Zhou Xia said this to her.
She said, "Mother, do you know why I want to learn swordsmanship? Because I want to become stronger."
“I’m not free wherever I go, and I have to be protected wherever I go. Every day I am annoyed by others. These are all because I am weak, so I am affected everywhere. Therefore, I want to be a stronger person than everyone else. Must be strong so that I can be free and live the life I want to live."
Mother Zhou just smiled, thinking it was just a child's innocent speech.
However, Zhou Xia is serious. When she learns other knowledge ~www.readwn.com~, her interest often fluctuates, because she is too easy to learn something, which makes her interest constantly shifted. But in the sword practice, she is very able to endure hardships, even if it is a very basic sword swing, as long as the teacher asks her to do it a thousand times, she can really grit her teeth and do it a thousand times.
It is precisely because Zhou Xia has made more and more achievements in orthodox education, miscellaneous studies of the three teachings and nine classes, or swordsmanship, the gap between her and Tao Cui is getting bigger and bigger.
Although Tao Cui is only two years older than her, Tao Cui usually talks about who is richer, which man is better, suitable for marriage, or is a kind, virtuous, and pleasing woman. Worse still, Tao Cui always wanted to take Zhou Xia to some places she was not interested in.
After two visits, Zhou Xia didn't want to be friends with Tao Cui.
Had it not been for the fact that she had known each other since she was a child, and she was also the daughter of a nursing mother, Zhou Xia would not even want to see her.
Tao Cui knew that Zhou Xia no longer liked her, but to her, Zhou Xia was still very valuable.
For Tao Cui, Zhou Xia's peerless beauty and her disdainful attitude that rejects all suitors are also her own steps. As long as you think of a way to lean on Zhou Xia, the men who came for Zhou Xia's beauty can give her a share of the pie after failure.
Tao Cui had been to Zhou Xia many times with an old face. Although Zhou Xia was young and didn't like these things, she was clever, and Tao Cui's twists and turns, Zhou Xia roughly guessed it.
This made her even more reluctant to face Tao Cui. She is not a person who likes to be exploited. Why should she be exploited?
After hearing Zhou Xia’s contemptuous words, Tao Cui said in an aura: "Xia Xia, your boss is not too young. You are 16 years old. If you leave an ordinary family, you should get married. Don’t find a good one sooner..."
As a result, Zhou Xia hadn't finished her words yet.
