Shuyao didn't know what resentments and conflicts the Zhen Dafu family had after they returned to Damingfu City. She was very busy, and now she had another task, teaching Xiutao "The Thousand-Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Surnames".

Xiutao is almost seven years old this year. Although her body bond has not yet been resolved, she has always called Shujie and the others "young master" and "girl". However, no one in the summer residence treats her as a maid, and the servants also call her "young master" and "young lady".

Pretty girl.

Shujie and Shuyao originally wanted Xiutao to study piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with Madam Luo and Madam Zheng together with Shuyao, but Aunt Mei refused, saying that Shuyao was already very good at it.

If you try to teach Xiu Tao basic things, you will definitely delay Shu Yao. Both gentlemen are famous Gao Shuxiu. Aunt Mei thinks that Xiu Tao only needs to be literate, able to read, write and do math. It is enough, just like before.

Shu Yao, some calligraphy and literature is enough.

Xiutao herself doesn't like to learn chess, calligraphy and painting, she can't sit still, and she doesn't have the patience. Maybe it's because she has often worked with Aunt Mei to receive customers since she was a child, and she has to count money, but Xiao Xiutao likes arithmetic as much as Shuwen, and Shuwen teaches her

She can remember the numbers and the methods of addition and subtraction. Recently she is reciting the newly learned multiplication formula. Of course, her mother has told her every day that those Arabic numerals are special things that the wife teaches young masters and girls.

, can only be used in private and cannot be shown off outside. Xiao Xiutao looked at the sky and curled her lips: "Mom is so wordy!" Those fun numbers helped her calculate faster in her mind. She didn't like writing, let alone outside.

What do you show when you write those Arabic numerals in front of people?

Shuyao especially likes to read, embroider, practice calligraphy in the three-story pavilion in the garden...even just to play and rest.

Ever since she learned "Flying Swallows Stepping on Lotus", Shuyao has never climbed the stairs when going up or down the pavilion. She always flies up and down. For example, she and Xiutao went to the pavilion to study at the moment, and when Xiu Tao reached the third floor, she had already

I drank half a glass of goat milk.

What’s funny is that every time at this time, Huohuo, who has always been clinging to Shuyao, hides away, fearing that Shuyao will catch him on the third floor. He suffers from the fact that he can’t speak human language, otherwise Huohuo really wants to shout: “I’m afraid.

Acrophobia! Fear of heights!" Especially when he was held in Shuyao's arms and flew up and down, with the wind whistling by, Huo Huo rolled his eyes and fainted when the cat didn't dare to move in Shuyao's arms.

No, Huo Huo, who was admiring the flowers in the garden, saw Shu Yao and Xiu Tao walking toward the pavilion carrying a basket of pens and ink and a basket of snacks. They disappeared in a swish, making Shu Yao laugh and Xiu Tao.

Tao and Lan Jin shed tears of sympathy for Huo Huo. Who let him have such an "unscrupulous" and "evil-minded" little master?

Huo Huo escaped and ascended to the sky. He slowed down his steps when he approached the garden gate, and took the most arrogant fox steps with a "swagger". Then he saw the little maid Lu Jin leading Shu Qing and A Dai over.

Shuqing greeted warmly: "Come Huohuo, I brought you delicious snacks."

Huohuo raised his chin and continued to walk with a proud fox step. Hum, I am a fox with integrity and I will not accept any sugar-coated bullets, let alone. No matter how delicious it is, has it ever enhanced my soul?

A'dai was both angry and funny: "Girl, look at how hot it is, hey, he's even dragged on."

Shu Qing sighed, how could a spiritual beast that symbolizes luck be easily pleased? But she really didn't understand, what good things could Shuyao and the other three do to make Xiaoguai and Huohuo follow them? From the Anguo Duke's Mansion in the capital

After she came back, she came to Xia Zhai often in the past two years, but the two spiritual beasts still ignored her. Could it be that she was really unlucky?

Alas, maybe so, otherwise why would my fiancé’s family suffer such great changes?

Two years ago, the father of Shuqing's fiancé Guo Jinnan was killed, and the family property was seized by his uncles. The orphans and widowers defected to the Xia family and came to Yulin Town. Xia Linyu and the Zhou family angrily scolded Guo Jinnan's uncles whose "consciences were eaten by dogs"

After a pause, there was no further expression.

Guo Jinnan and her son are also strong people. They were not originally prepared to stay in the Xia Mansion. They just thought that they were the children's in-laws after all, so they could have some kind of care when they came to Yulin. Guo's mother bought a small courtyard on the edge of Yulin Town with her dowry, and also bought a small courtyard in the suburbs.

He bought thirty acres of land and rented it out to collect rent, and Guo's mother did needlework. Although she was not rich, she could still ensure food and clothing, and Guo Jinnan could continue to study.

…

Shuqing will turn thirteen in two months. Guo's mother has repeatedly proposed that she and Guo Jinnan will get married when Shuqing has hair extensions. Then Guo Jinnan concentrates on preparing for the exam and striving for a spot on the gold list.

Shu Qing could see that neither his parents nor his aunt Xia Ruoxue wanted her to marry Guo Jinnan, but they didn't want to be known as treacherous.

When the Guo family and their son first came to Yulin, Shu Qing met Guo Jinnan once. At that time, he was only fourteen years old, but he could already be seen as a refined and elegant man. He was also upright and clear-looking, and he was said to be talented. If it weren't for his father

This is a really good choice for a husband. But now... Shu Qing is very confused.

If Guo Jinnan was not a filial piety, it would be okay if he could take the scientific examination in the spring of next year. As long as he can be named on the gold medal list, and his aunt and uncle's An Guogong Mansion will help support him, he and Ji will have hope of getting married in two years.

But in the spring of the new year, Guo Jinnan was still in mourning, so he was bound to miss the scientific examination and had to wait for another three years. At that time, he had already been married and suffered for more than a year.

None), and I’m not sure whether it can be reversed. If Guo Jinnan fails the exam, then she will have to guard the 30 acres of land and be a market lady for the rest of her life. Is she good at literary talent? Dazhou has a good atmosphere for studying and taking exams, so she is very talented in literature.

There are more good people.

Betting, Shuqing is like facing a gambling game, and she doesn't know how to place the bet. But she knows that Xia Linyu and Zhou have been planning to let the Guo family mother and son break off the engagement on their own. Zhou has been talking about it recently, and now

The situation is that if Guo Jinnan cannot go to high school, he is worse than the son of a wealthy businessman with no real money.

Shuqing was annoyed by Mrs. Zhou's nagging at the house, so she went to Xia Zhai to get close to Shu Yao. Shu Qing also liked the Xia Zhai garden and the three-story pavilion.

On the third floor of the pavilion, Shu Qing saw Shu Yao teaching Xiutao how to read, and couldn't help but sigh. The three Shu Yao brothers treated Xiutao much better than his own cousin. After two years of hard work, Shu Yao San

She was already the nicest person in the entire Xia family, but she still maintained a slight alienation. Shuyao, in particular, always had a kind of wariness that seemed to go deep into her bones.

"Sister Yao'er, Master Jingxuan from Famen Temple in Beijing came to Yuquan Temple to give a lecture. He will give a public lecture three days later. I heard that there are two people who are destined to meet Master Jingxuan this time. Sister Yao'er

, this is a rare opportunity, I’m going to listen, do you want to go too?”

Master Jingxuan is an eminent monk respected by the royal family. If you can meet him as a "destined person", you will benefit a lot even if you just give him a few words. This "benefit" not only refers to Buddhist guidance, but also to
