#498 - Chapter 497: Serve the Second Young Lady Clearly
Upon hearing there was still a chance, the servants rejoiced.
Who cares if he can do it? If I can't, the newcomer definitely can't either!
Chu Youyi looked at Fang Zheng Yi provocatively.
Chu Qinghan, who was beside her, was genuinely angry and scolded loudly, "Nonsense! Go back to your room immediately! Tomorrow, you will go to the academy and study hard on how to read and behave!"
Chu Youyi puffed out her cheeks and was about to retort, but Fang Zheng Yi took the initiative to speak, "Okay! But there are no stars during the day, I will bring stars to the Second Miss at night."
"Did you hear that, sister? He said he would pick the stars!" Chu Youyi glanced at Chu Qinghan, then looked at Fang Zheng Yi again, "Then this young lady will wait in the courtyard tonight to see who can pick the stars!"
After saying that, she turned and went back into the house.
Chu Qinghan's expression showed a bit of helplessness, and she said to Fang Zheng Yi, "You don't have to pay attention to her. Come with me, I will tell you some things so you can send the Second Miss to school tomorrow."
This little girl is so unruly, but what can she do? She still has to listen to her sister! Tch!
Fang Zheng Yi nodded slightly and then followed Chu Qinghan, who turned and left.
They arrived at Chu Qinghan's study.
As soon as Fang Zheng Yi stepped into the study, he was stunned.
Hanging on the wall was a poem: "The bleak cicadas chirp, facing the long pavilion late, the torrential rain has just stopped. The capital gate tent... a beautiful day is set in vain." The poem stopped abruptly here, with two lines still blank.
Fang Zheng Yi thought to himself.
Isn't this the 'Yu Lin Ling' I copied? And it's hanging on the wall?
She's really a little fan girl.
Although it was copied, Fang Zheng Yi couldn't help but feel a little smug.
It's just a pity that I forgot the last two lines. I clearly memorized the last two lines for the college entrance exam, and after the exam, I rushed back to flip through the Chinese textbook.
How could I forget them? What were they again....
Chu Qinghan stopped and looked at Fang Zheng Yi, who was staring at the wall in a daze, and smiled, "What? Do you also understand this poem?"
"Uh... I just think it's very well written."
Chu Qinghan explained with a smile, "This poem was written by the current Zhan Shi, Fang Zheng Yi. His poetic talent is amazing. You can read more if you like it."
"Fang Zheng Yi? Then this talented person must be of noble character, high morality, and handsome appearance, right?" Fang Zheng Yi asked shamelessly.
Chu Qinghan was stunned by his question.
She thought he was interested in poetry, but she didn't expect him to say such a string of words. She thought for a moment and replied, "That's natural."
Hmm~ Hmm~ Hmm~
I am the firefly in the darkness, so bright and outstanding, unstoppable!
The corners of Fang Zheng Yi's mouth turned up, and he smiled secretly.
Chu Qinghan turned around and took out a few books from the bookshelf and handed them to Fang Zheng Yi, "This is a notebook I made before. Take it to the Second Miss and let her refer to it carefully during class. You must also take good care of these notebooks on weekdays and not damage them."
Fang Zheng Yi took the notebook, flipped through two pages, and nodded seriously.
"Miss, please rest assured."
It was filled with dense small characters, and the handwriting was beautiful, showing that she had put a lot of effort into it.
Moreover, she could have asked a maid to send the notebook over, but she personally brought him to the study, which shows that these notebooks are also very important to her.
Fang Zheng Yi couldn't help but feel a sense of respect in his heart.
In this world, it is already extremely difficult to make a name for oneself!
It takes women several times more effort than men to succeed. Not to mention anything else, at least public opinion is difficult for ordinary people to accept.
A woman like Chu Qinghan, who studies so hard and can also help manage the family business, must be one in a million.
Fang Zheng Yi has always had a special respect for talents who can counterattack and break through in adversity.
This is his empathy.
Seeing that he was serious, Chu Qinghan felt a little relieved and continued to explain, "I should have taught Youyi myself, but I don't have time."
"Your duty is not heavy, as long as you accompany Youyi with peace of mind. Have you ever been a pageboy before?"
"I haven't," Fang Zheng Yi said honestly.
"Well, ordinary pageboys have to tidy up the housework and the study. You don't have to do this part. Xin Zhu will be responsible for it."
"The Second Miss is lively and may not be able to sit still. You have to supervise her and make her study hard and not slack off."
"The rest of your duties are to help Youyi handle miscellaneous affairs outside, accompany her in and out of the academy, protect her safety, take her to the restaurant for dinner every day, and then escort her home at night. This is all you have to do."
"I have already talked to Dean Shen about the situation here. You don't have to worry when you arrive at the academy. If any classmates harass Youyi, remember to protect her. Try not to conflict with others. Those people are not people you can afford to provoke."
Fang Zheng Yi continued to nod: "I understand."
"Well," Chu Qinghan took out a small silver ingot from her purse and handed it over: "This is two taels of silver, the Second Miss's expenses for a day. She has to go to Yuhua Restaurant for meals every day. She usually doesn't carry money with her. You have to manage the money for her and not spend it randomly. I will reconcile the accounts with Youyi when I come back at night."
"How much is the pageboy's salary? Steward Dong will arrange it for you when he comes back. You don't have to worry about this part. There's nothing else."
"Don't worry, Miss, I never spend money indiscriminately, that... picking stars at night..." Fang Zheng Yi pondered, staring at the silver.
"Don't humor her! The academy is not far from here. You can walk her to the academy tomorrow. I have something to do and can't send her. You can go outside now to familiarize yourself with the road to the academy, so as not to delay the time tomorrow. There is also a jar of good wine in the corner, which is prepared for Dean Shen. You can take it with you tomorrow." Chu Qinghan finished speaking and began to see him off.
I'll buy a good set of clothes first, then buy a cheap jade pendant, take a bath, and have a good meal... Two taels should be enough!
Fang Zheng Yi thought to himself, now that he has the money, he must first change into a good outfit, otherwise, if he wears a servant's uniform, the brothers won't dare to recognize him even if they find him.
However, he still has to do the star-picking thing for her. This little girl is an unstable factor and must be subdued first.
Anyway, it's just a matter of convenience, and potential troubles should be avoided if possible.
Picking stars, how did she come up with such a stupid thing?
I've seen so many TV shows and web novels in my previous life, and this kind of routine is the most common.
With my appearance, isn't it easy to capture?
"Miss, please put your heart in your stomach, I will definitely serve the Second Miss clearly!"
After saying that, Fang Zheng Yi picked up the wine jar and turned to leave the study.
He turned back to the South Courtyard. At this time, Lai Gou'er should have just finished his work and was leaning against the wall to rest.
Seeing Fang Zheng Yi coming, he immediately raised his hand and called out, "Brother, you're back. Did you get selected?"
"Did I get selected? You underestimate my ability too much!" Fang Zheng Yi smiled and patted the wine jar: "See what good stuff I brought you?"
