Chapter 274 School(1/2)

Seeing that Brother Zhun couldn't recite the book, Xu Lingyi looked a little unhappy, but he didn't say much and helped the wife to the East Room.

Brother Zhen stood there with his head lowered in frustration.

Eleven Niang came forward and squatted down and asked him: Are you a little scared?

Brother Zhen nodded, with tears in his eyes: I can recite it.

Eleven Niang said softly: Then we can recite it to daddy sometime, okay?

Brother Zhen nodded vigorously.

Eleven Niang held his hand: let’s go eat first

Brother Zhen didn't move: If it were me, I still wouldn't know how to memorize it. I felt uneasy and at a loss.

If we don’t recite it to dad quietly in front of so many people, will Brother Zhun forget it? Eleven Niang asked him in a low voice.

Brother Zhen's head dropped even lower: "My husband asked me, I, I can't recite it either."

Eleven Niang was secretly shocked.

If this is the case, I'm afraid the situation is not good.

But at this time, you can't hit your children.

Then recite it to me, okay? Eleven Niang will try to ask him.

Brother Zhen thought about it for a moment and then reluctantly said hello.

Eleven Niang remembered that during the Chinese New Year, he recited the kindergarten lesson in front of everyone

Let's go eat first. She smiled and hugged Brother Chen. She doesn't want to think about this now. Eat well. Otherwise, your father will be angry again when he sees you picking up rice grains with chopsticks to eat. Anyway, I can't recite the book anymore.

Let's just eat our food first.

Yes, Brother Zhun whispered, and he was led by Eleven Niang obediently to the east room.

The second lady walking in front glanced back.

Perhaps he listened to Eleven Niang's advice, Brother Chen ate his meal in a proper manner this time, and his behavior showed a bit of the calmness of a young master from aristocratic families. In contrast, Xu Sijie beside him was devouring his food. The maid fed him, but he refused.

After eating, he dropped rice grains on the table, picked them up and stuffed them into his mouth, looking very embarrassed.

A trace of pity flashed in Mrs. Tai's eyes.

The fifth lady turned her face away, as if she hadn't seen it.

Xu Lingyi hesitated to speak. On the way back, he whispered to Eleven Niang: "I think since we moved to Lijingxuan, we should find an excuse to stop Brother Jie from eating at the table. Let the mothers in charge give him a lesson first."

Children also have self-esteem. Although they don’t understand it yet, parents should help them maintain it.

Eleven Niang also agreed, and told Xu Lingyi about Brother Chen: I asked him privately. He said he was a little scared, so he couldn't recite it.

Scared, scared Xu Lingyi showed some impatience on his brows after hearing this. He was either scared, worried, or nervous. How old is he this year? How can he continue like this?

If a problem cannot be solved, it is best not to raise it again.

Eleven Niang smiled and changed the subject: Speaking of which, March 3rd is Brother Jie’s birthday.

Xu Lingyi didn't remember, so he said with a oh, "Then take this opportunity to do something for him." He also said, "Look at how much money it will cost, I will ask Mr. Bai to come over."

Eleven Niang thought about the attitude of the Fifth Master and the Fifth Madam today. What Xu Sijie wanted was not to be arrogant, but to be forbearing.

She used the words of the second wife as an excuse: The child is still young and doing big things will easily ruin his fortune. I think a bowl of longevity noodles will be enough when the time comes.

You just have to make up your mind. Xu Lingyi looked at Sister Zhen holding Xu Sijie who was walking in front. Since he is following us, we can't let him suffer.

Eleven Niang smiled and nodded. When she returned to the house, she told Aunt Qin and Aunt Wen who came to say hello about the move, and then told Lu Yun to tell Qiao Lianfang.

Aunt Wen had no objection, but Aunt Qin hesitated and said: "I, can I wait and see before moving?"

Eleven Niang was puzzled.

Aunt Wen smiled and explained at the side: Aunt Qin made an offering to the Bodhisattva in the house.

Although Eleven Niang doesn't believe this, she doesn't exclude others from believing it.

Then Aunt Qin should make a decision earlier so as not to delay the groundbreaking.

Aunt Qin went away in response. In the middle of the night, she burned a yellow watch in the yard and prayed.

Aunt Wen returned to the house, but she and Qiu Hongdong Hongyuer and others spent the night sewing their trousers and belts.

If the belt is there, the person is there. If the belt is gone, the person doesn't have to live anymore.

Qiu Hong and others thought about the two hundred thousand taels of silver in their respective belts, and their hands holding the needle trembled a little.

Qiao Lianfang was a little stunned after hearing this: The Marquis moved to Diaolun Water Pavilion, and my two aunts and I moved to Nongxiang Courtyard.

Yes, Aunt Qiao. Luyun said with a smile, I heard that this was the madam’s idea.

Qiao Lian stayed in the room for a while, then asked Xiu Citron to reward Lu Yun with two pieces of silver, and then sent her out.

Lu Yun felt a little cold when he saw it. He went back and replied to Eleven Niang: For the first time in history, he rewarded me with money.

I'll reward you, just go ahead and continue." Eleven Niang said with a smile.

You can't open your umbrella every day just because it's going to rain.

She still has to live her life.

Lu Yun made a cup of hot tea for Eleven Niang. She and Hu Hui were writing down the guest list for March 3. The guests were all drawn up according to the old rules.

The more characters Eleven Niang found Amber, the better she wrote them.

After practicing again, I can write invitations. My tone is very gratifying.

Hu Bo pursed her lips and smiled, but Hong Xiu's words were in her mind: Yan Rong heard that Madam liked women who could read and write, so she had to practice calligraphy for an hour every morning. Rain or shine, frost and snow kept coming.

She was staring at the position after Bin Ju left.

Amber thinks of Bin Ju

Madam, does Sister Binju return in nine days or twelve days?

If you return home in nine days, it will be the second day of March; if you return home in twelve days, it will be the fifth day of March.

I asked her to come home after one month.

Amber was startled when she heard this.

Eleven Niang smiled and said: I didn't think about it at the time. I just thought that she lived far away and it would take a whole day to go back and forth. And at the end of March, when the spring flowers were blooming, she could still go for an outing.

Amber laughed after hearing this: Sister Binju is really lucky.

But I was thinking in my heart that Madam is so nostalgic. Seeing that she should walk around with Zhu Xiang more often.

There are so many smart people in this house.

At this moment, Eleven Niang looked at the familiar names on the red and gold paper, but her expression was a little dazed.

It's the third day of March again.

The first time she met Xu Lingyi was also March 3rd

A lot of things happened that day.

First, Shi Niang suddenly appeared, and then the Xiaoyuan incident occurred.

March 3rd. For many people, it is just an ordinary spring outing; for many people, it is a turning point in life. Yuan Niang, Qiao Lianfang, Shi Niang Lanting, Cao E, Lin Mingyuan and even Wen Lian, all are familiar or unfamiliar.

Faces passed through her mind.

Eleven Niang shook her head hard, throwing away those memories.

She rarely dwells on the past, because it is useless to be sad and regretful, time will always drag people forward.

She asked Amber to find some simpler clothes for her: Let’s go see Brother Zhen tomorrow morning.

Amber was very surprised.

The clan school of the Xu family is called Chengxun Yuan, located at the north and south corners of the outer courtyard. It refers to clan studies. In fact, the Xu family currently only has Xu Siyu and Brother Chen studying there. The other seven or eight students are all minor officials or ministers in the capital.

Although the children of the side branch are not complicated, there are outsiders after all.

I think there is something wrong with Brother Zhun’s situation, but Eleven Niang didn’t think too much about it. She mused, no matter how the husband asked him to endorse it, he couldn’t recite it. Is he afraid of the Marquis? Is he also afraid of that gentleman?

Do you want to ask the second young master to ask Hu Hudao? The second young master and the fourth young master are studying together. They should know something.

After all, he is her husband. Eleven Niang shook her head gently. Even if there was anything, it was hard for the second young master to say anything. Why bother him? Let's go and take a look quietly before making any calculations.

Amber responded and found Eleven Niang a lake-colored face jacket that she wore at her parents' home.

Xu Lingyi is back. He just went to the study.

Linbo and Zhaoying came with him. Each of them held several cardboard boxes in their hands.

He directed Linbo and Zhaoying to place the cardboard box on the kang table in the inner room.

Eleven Niangs stepped forward, bent her knees and saluted, and said with a smile: What did the Marquis get?

Xu Lingyi invited her over to take a look: Xiaowu made it. He said it was a model of the house. It was delivered at noon today. Then he pointed out to her, here are the windows, here are the doors, and this is the main hall that is lifelike. Even the window lattice is cracked by ice or cracked by ice.

The plum pattern is clearly visible.
