Chapter 24: Father of the Turtle Son
Yun Qianyi was shocked!
“Is the girl serious?”
“Definitely serious. Just now I’ve asked the maids to clean up the study, if there’s nothing else, we’ll start tomorrow.”
Although this had nothing to do with the task given by Empress Lu, in the long run, if one wanted to turn passivity into initiative, accepting the culture of this era and being able to write the words of this era was absolutely essential. Besides, the ready-made female teacher, put in vain to draw what beautiful men’s illustrations, is really too wasteful, is not it?
Hearing Zhao Su’s decisive and sharp words, Yun Qianyi didn’t know what to say. Even though she was psychologically prepared, she really felt sudden.
This uneducated guy, home and outside the family have been fooled guy, this is the elm goose bumps get the hang of it?
He wasn’t playing with her, was he?
Cautiously, she made a suggestion, “This matter is not a big problem, but it is best for the girl to discuss it with her aunt first.”
Auntie again!
Zhao Su said with a straight face, “Mr. Yun is wrong about that. This is my family matter, you are the one that my father properly invited into the house to teach me the rules of learning, then you should just follow orders and act accordingly, auntie is just temporarily living here to take care of me on my behalf, not to mention that you should be happy that my prodigal son is returning to his roots, or that I am being forced to learn, and that Mr. Yun should stick to his stance as well.
“And now you ask me to obtain my aunt’s consent; does it mean that she has interfered more in my affairs on weekdays?”
“……”
Yun Qianyi had read a stomach full of books in vain and was speechless at the moment.
Zhao Su took a sip of tea and twisted his head to look up in the direction of Mei Ying Zhai.
In Mei Ying Zhai, which was separated from Qiyu Courtyard by a pierced hall, Aunt Ning, who was eating her dinner, put down her chopsticks.
“Did she really say these words?”
“The slave girl doesn’t dare to lie. The girl was like a different person, actually inquiring about auntie and the marquis. It’s a good thing that it was only later when the marquis left that the girl didn’t ask about anything else.”
Aunt Ning sat fixedly for a while, then glanced oddly at Caiyun.
Caiyun took half a step back for no reason, biting her lip and lowering her head.
“It seems that Sister Su is becoming more and more understanding.” Aunt Ning said, “It’s no wonder she was able to come out of the palace unscathed, seeing as how she’s memorized all of my teachings on weekdays. Although it’s true that from time to time she gets into some small trouble, as a family like our marquis house, it doesn’t hurt, it’s still a good world, and that’s how girls should be, living a life of pain and suffering.”
Caiyun raised her head in a haze.
“You go back, don’t let anyone see what’s going on.”
After sending Caiyun away, Aunt Ning immediately retreated from the smile on her face and looked to the nearby nursemaid, Sister Qiu. “Why do I feel something is wrong?”
Sister Qiu walked over, “It is a bit off! The girl used to have the worst headaches when it came to family matters, she was too lazy to care about what happened at home, but now she has suddenly changed her temperament, not only did she inquire about the Flower and Moon Festival with her wife yesterday, but today she is talking directly to the Marquis-
“I’m really worried, the girl is not hit the evil, right? Or is it that the Empress Dowager was too frightened yesterday in the palace?”
“It’s on the doorstep, don’t make any mistakes.” Aunt Ning stood up uneasily.
“That would be too unworthy, yesterday the girl also let the marquis renew his wife, the wife has paid twelve years of her life here, if it really falls into a dove’s nest, then what is the wife?
“Is it easy to raise a little girl to this age? If it wasn’t for the wife’s efforts to protect and let the first wife raise the third girl, the third girl would still not know how to grow up, the marquis should also remember it in his heart! As for the third girl, she should not have disregarded her wife’s kindness!”
Aunt Ning’s face sank as she spoke, “This girl has always been obedient, and suddenly changed her temper, must have been abetted by someone. –These two days, the First Mistress and the girls went to Qiyu courtyard?”
“The First Mistress and the Third and Fourth Mistresses escorted the girl back to her room when she returned, and then they didn’t go there.”
“And didn’t send anyone over?”
Sister Autumn thought for a moment and then said, “Yesterday after dinner, the First Mistress sent Zisu with the Second Mistress to Qi Yu Yuan to give the girl a tranquilizing soup. The Second Maiden and the others stayed for quite a while!”
“Indeed!”
Aunt Ning thought she had realized something and clenched the silk in her hand, “The eldest house has long been at odds with me, and at first, for the sake of Sister Su’er, Xing’s almost started a fight with me, and even though there were no more incidents later on, she may not not be worried that I’ll sit in the position of Mrs. Marquis of Qingyun, and ride over her head in the future. The one who instigated Sister Su won’t be someone else, it must be the head of this family!”
“This First Mistress isn’t a light that can’t be saved, and she’s a sister-in-law from a different house with her hand in her little uncle’s room, so she should be wary.”
Aunt Ning gritted her teeth. Then she moved again, “Yes, Sister Su also asked me earlier if Jade Brother’s idea of a house was coming up, plus yesterday she took the initiative to propose to the Marquis to promise to renew his marriage before even discussing it with me, could it be that she was provoked a long time ago?”
Autumn Sister also panicked: “Then this First Mistress is also too good at confusing people!”
Aunt Ning sat down: “Don’t just stand there, make more money and keep a close eye on both sides!”
“Yes!”
……
Yun Xiangyi was disoriented by Zhao Su’s change, she didn’t expect that she would be disliked by the stupid girl she always disliked!
The key was that she couldn’t say anything wrong with her righteousness!
But at this time, Hua Qianrong also came back with quick steps, “Miss!”
Zhao Su waved her hand and told Xiaolan and Xiao Ju to stand down, “How was it? What’s the catch?”
Hua Huarong couldn’t help but say, “That damned girl went to Mei Ying Zhai!”
Yun Xiangyi said, “Caiyun?”
Hua Huirong lightly tapped the table, “I went out of the door, quickly caught up with Caiyun that dead niece, all the way to Mei Ying Zhai. Caiyun talked with aunt in the house for a while, I also took an opportunity to go around to the side window to eavesdrop, and then heard Caiyun say something about the girl seeing the marquis, and said something about being lucky that the marquis had left, making me angry!
“This dead girl eats the food of Qiyuyuan, but does the business of pleasing the aunt, if it’s not hard to get down, I’ll take her arm off and let her know what happens when she turns her elbow out!”
Yun Qianyi was confused: “How did the girl find out about Caiyun?”
Caiyun had problems that she could see long ago, but Zhao Su shouldn’t have!
Had this fool really become enlightened?
“What’s so difficult about it. Since I happen to get stopped every time I read, there has to be a tipper. There are only so many people in the house, so just dig a small hole and try it out. If it doesn’t work once, dig it a second time, you’ll always know.”
Zhao Su didn’t think that this was anything great, nonetheless, and right now she also felt that there was some trouble.
She just made a move and Caiyun jumped into the pit, not caring at all if she noticed it or not, it seems that Marquis Qingyun’s inner house is even more rotten than she imagined.
The point is, even Zhao Su’s own people were bought by Auntie Ning, then Auntie Ning’s hand is not just stretching too long, but almost a hand to cover the sky is not it?
