The person sent by the old lady to inquire soon came back, and the gentleman who enlightened Li Han was a lifter. The people who went to inquire said that this gentleman has a very good reputation, and his talent and moral character are good.

The old lady confirmed that Mr. was good, so she agreed to Yueyao and let Tingzheng go to Li's house to study. What the old lady didn't expect was that the eldest son would raise an objection: "Mother, the Li family is almost the same as our Lianjia family. Now let Ting Zheng go to study and spread the word about how to treat our family. Mother, this is not possible. ”

The old lady glanced at her son and said with a smile: "Just learn from Mr., this kind of thing doesn't just happen in our family, where others look down on the family." Fang'er, although Tingzheng's biological mother is lowly, and it is impossible for him to glorify his ancestors with his qualifications, he is your brother's only heir after all, and your brother still relies on him to continue his bloodline. Now it's rare to have such an opportunity, just let him go! I don't have high expectations for him, I just hope that he can continue your brother's bloodline in the future and support the door of the second room. "When you are old, there are not many things to look forward to, and the court can't do the things of the glory of the ancestors, so it is better to count on the court rites and court rites.

Lian Dongfang shook his head: "Mother, I have been looking for Mr. everywhere during this time, and someone has already recommended one to me." When the time comes, it is not better to invite Mr. to teach at home, and not only to teach Tingzheng, but also to teach Tingchao and Tinglun. "It's not that Lian Dongfang didn't pay attention to it, it's just that it's hard to find a good gentleman now.

The old lady was very pleased: "When can Mr. invite /a/book/read/novel ybdu to come?" "If it is just these days, she can refuse the invitation of the Li family.

Lian Dongfang frowned and said, "This gentleman will not leave the hall until after the children's exam next year, and he will not come until after the first month of next year." "Sir can't have fallen out of thin air. If you are looking for a gentleman, you have to be at least half a year in advance, and you can have it wherever you want.

The old lady took a moment and said, "Since this is the case, let Ting Zheng go to the Li family to study for a while." Wait until next year to invite our husband ourselves, and then let Tingzheng come back. "The old lady knows that Yueyao has to teach Tingzheng every night, and she is afraid that Yueyao's body will not be able to eat, so it is better to let Tingzheng go to the Li family to study, and then invite Mr. to come, and then it is not too late to refuse.

Lian Dongfang saw that his mother had made up his mind, and knew that it was useless to say more. Just back in the backyard, Lian Dongfang lost his temper at Mo's for a long time.

Moh's grievances are full of nowhere to tell.

No one knows that the person Lian Dongfang hates the most in his life is Li Guoxun. As for the reason, no one knows it but himself.

Mo was very aggrieved in his heart, but he also knew that his husband was angry, and retorting would only add fuel to the fire. waited until Lian Dongfang lost his temper before whispering: "The third girl has always been a person with big ideas, and I don't know about finding Mr. this time." I didn't hear any rumors, it should be someone from the Ma family that the three girls were looking for. "This girl's secrecy is very good, she hasn't even heard the slightest rumor.

Lian Dongfang's face was so gloomy when he heard it that it could rain, he really didn't expect that the root cause was the three girls. Thinking of Yueyao being grief-stricken on the way back, Lian Dongfang frowned, this girl knew how to cry when she was in trouble half a year ago, why did she change so much in half a year, and she had so many ideas. No, it seems that since he came back from that errand, that girl has started to change. During this time, he was very busy, and even Dong Fang didn't care about these things, but now he couldn't help but ask: "What has that kid been doing lately?" ”

Lian Dongfang heard that Yueyao studied with Mr. Mama every day, and other than that, he taught Tingzheng to read and write, and nothing else was different. Lian Dongfang's brows furrowed even tighter, so he couldn't see anything inappropriate: "Because of the death of the second brother, my mother will inevitably connive at the third girl who looks similar to the second brother, you can persuade her beside you." "He has always cared about the affairs of the inner court.

Moh's heart was in a panic. Letting her persuade the old lady is not tantamount to coming to the door to scold. But the husband has always claimed to be a filial son, except for the old lady at home, he said that one is one, and two is two, and no one can be allowed to disobey him, so Mo naturally does not dare to disobey him: "Master, I will try my best to persuade the old lady." ”

Yueyao was still in a trance, she thought there would be some twists and turns this time, but she didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

Sending Ting to study at Li's house, new problems came out again. There was no personal servant by Brother Zheng'er, and the old lady asked Yueyao to choose by herself. The old lady spoke, and Mo naturally would not interfere. Things fell on Yue Yao again.

Yueyao originally wanted someone to go to Zhuangzi to pick two children, but Hua Bud said cautiously on the side: "Girl, my uncle got the news that there is a shortage of young people around the young master, and he has the intention to let my cousin serve by the young master's side." Girl, my cousin was a clever child. If the girl thinks it's good after seeing it, she can use it. ”

Mother Deng frowned. This bud usually does things very measured, how can he be so substandard in this matter. It turned out that the relationship was entrusted to the girl, who the girl wants to use, she has her own plans, and where is it up to the maid.

If you don't make a mistake with the young master's personal servant, you will be the most useful person when you grow up. Yue Yao thought about what happened last time, and Hua Bud's uncle did that thing very well, and he didn't spread the slightest rumor. This time, I asked for the door, firstly, I had the intention of surrendering, and secondly, I was also seeking a future for my children.

She is now worried about useless people, and it would be good if she could subdue Uncle Hua Bud's family: "Cheng, let your aunt bring him over for me to see." ”

Hua Bud knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Miss Xie." "She was also forced to have no choice, her uncle was on an errand in the stable, and her aunt was doing rough work, and there were four children in the family, and the meager monthly silver of the two was not enough at all, and life was hard haha. This time the uncle and aunt begged her, and Hua Bud thought that the girl also used her uncle last time, and she was afraid that something would happen to the girl if she refused to chill her uncle's heart, so she told the girl hard.

Yueyao waved her hand: "It's too early to thank you, I have to see people first." "If it's too clever, Yueyao doesn't want it. People who are too clever and have too many eyes can't control it. Of course, the most important thing is faithfulness, which is fundamental.

If you can give a chance, the bud is already grateful, and the rest is up to the cousin's own.

Yue Yao suddenly remembered the twenty taels of silver she gave last time: "Has your uncle placed your cousin well?" "It's been a long time since this happened, and Yue Yao almost forgot about it

Hua Bud's face turned ugly: "No." My aunt said that my cousin had been rejected by her wife, and that she would not be able to redeem her money if she took the money. It's better to use this money to tell my cousin that he is a good family, and now my cousin doesn't know where she was sold. Hua Bud felt sad at the thought that her cousin, who was like a flower, didn't know where she was now.

Yue Yao was a little surprised: "This is the stepmother?" "If it is the stepmother, you can understand, but such a person will never be used, and when such a person is used, he will be ironclad in betraying the Lord.

Hua Bud smiled bitterly: "If the stepmother doesn't say anything, it's my mother." "My mother can be so ruthless, which is even more chilling.

Yue Yao glanced at Hua Bud and didn't speak again. In the ten years in the nunnery, what kind of things has she not heard? There are more eccentric and ruthless parents in the world than Uncle and Aunt Hua Bud, and when you meet such parents, you can only consider yourself unlucky: "In the future, you will have less contact with their family." "Such people still don't come and go, and getting involved means trouble.

Hua Bud nodded hurriedly: "Don't worry, girl, there will be no more contacts." Hua Bud didn't say anything about the follow-up, her mother knew the cause and effect of this incident, and ran to her aunt to ask for silver, but she didn't ask for a penny of silver, and she had a big quarrel with her mother, and finally broke up unhappily. For such a brother, Hua Bud's mother was also cold, and directly said that there was no such brother, and she was no longer willing to communicate.

Hua Bud sneered, after the news spread that the girl was going to choose a little girl for the young master this time, her aunt actually found her whimsically and said that she would recommend the second cousin to the girl. The second cousin is so lazy to do it, it is really ridiculous for her to recommend such a person to the young master as a servant. However, she didn't say this to death, and directly said that she would return the twenty taels of silver first, and then talk about anything else. As a result, my uncle died down.

Yueyao nodded: "That's good." "I didn't ask anything else.

After Deng's mother went out, she deliberately looked for Hua Bud: "This matter is this time, and there must be no next time." Otherwise, you should not serve by the girl's side. Mother Deng thinks that Hua Bud's behavior is beyond her duty, and it will not be a good thing for the girl in the long run.

Hua Bud was trained to blush: "Mom, not next time." ”

Mother Deng nodded. In fact, Mother Deng meant to choose a kid from the family of several entourages that the master relied on before, but she didn't expect to be spoiled by the flower buds. For Mother Deng, choosing the previous family is much more reliable than Hua Bud's uncle. It's just that the girl decided, and she couldn't refute it.

In the evening, Hua Bud's aunt came over with her youngest son to ask to see Yueyao.

Yueyao looked at the little boy dressed in a patch. The little boy is half a head taller than his brother, his skin is dark, his eyebrows are very thick, his appearance is not outstanding but it is not ugly, and he belongs to ordinary people. If such a little boy stands next to Tingzheng, it will make Tingzheng look good.

Yueyao looked at the patches on her clothes and said lightly, "Why are there patches on your clothes?" "You should wear good clothes to see her no matter what, and this is to win sympathy.

Hua Bud's aunt was a little anxious at the moment, thinking that Yueyao was disgusted that her son was too poor to wear on the stage: "Girl, this is for him from the second child of my family, and the second child is older, so I will leave it for the third child to wear." Because it was worn for a long time, it was damaged, so it was sewn up. ”

Yue Yao nodded slightly in her heart. I didn't go out of my way to buy a new dress or borrow a new dress because I came to see me, which proves that my heart is real. Of course, if it weren't for the fact that this child's clothes were so neat and clean, and his fingernails were clean, Yueyao would not have such an idea. So sometimes the details can tell a lot of things.

Yueyao ignored Aunt Hua Bud's words, but directly asked the little boy who was kneeling on the ground, "Tell me how old you are this year?" "Since it's a small guy, you must not only be clever, but also bold and careful. Of course, faithfulness is the first and foremost thing. It's just that faithfulness takes time to observe, and it can't be determined in a sentence or two.

The little boy looked up at Yue Yao and said, "Back girl, the slave is six years old this year. Then he looked at the appreciative look of his cousin next to him, and eased his spirit slightly.

Yueyao then asked, "You've been wearing your brother's old clothes?" Have you ever wanted to wear a new outfit for yourself? These questions may seem irrelevant, but the answers often reveal a person's character.

The little boy was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at the bud and his mother, neither of whom prompted. Seeing Yue Yao again, she looked at herself calmly. The little boy thought about what his father had told him to wait for the girl to ask, and he answered truthfully. At that moment, he swallowed his saliva and plucked up his courage to say, "Yes, I also want to have my own new clothes to wear." It's just that we don't even have enough to eat, and we don't have money to buy new clothes. My father told my mother that if I followed the young master in the future, I would have new clothes to wear. ”

Bud's aunt almost jumped. What did this dead kid say! Looking at the girl's expression, I'm afraid that this errand is going to be ruined.

Yueyao looked at Aunt Hua Bud: "Why can't you even eat enough?" Lian Fuke deducted your wages or what? "That's weird. Generally speaking, as the children of the family, both of them are on an errand in the mansion, not to mention anything else, there should be no such thing as being hungry.

Hua Bud's aunt was frightened: "No, nothing." ”

Yue Yao looked at Mother Deng and shook her head at her, and she suppressed the question in her heart. He only asked the little boy, "What's your name?" ”

The little boy took a moment before he said, "My name is Gouyu." ”

Yue Yao smiled when she heard this, she knew that many people believed in cheap lives to feed people, so she gave her children a cheap name: "Then do you want to eat enough every day and have new clothes to wear?" ”

The dog didn't want to think about it, so he responded: "Yes." When it was over, he added: "It's a fool who doesn't want to." ”

Hua Bud almost fainted when she heard the latter words, and she explained before that unless the girl asked to answer, she should not speak at other times, how could she forget it in the blink of an eye.

Yue Yao listened to Gou Yu's words, but smiled knowingly. Although this answer was a little rougher, it was sincere: "The dog is too ugly, you will change your name to Ah Hai in the future." "There is no end to learning, and there is no end to learning.

Hua Bud's aunt thought that there was no play, and she was worried that the girl would ask them why they couldn't eat enough, and then they would offend the lady in charge, but she didn't expect the girl to continue to ask, and nodded and agreed to let the dog stay as the young master's little servant.

Yueyao asked Hua Bud to marry five taels of silver to Aunt Hua Lei: "Take this money to buy a few clothes for Ah Hai, and follow Tingzheng out in the future to represent Tingzheng's face." "The dress of the little guy is not only the face of Tingzheng, but also the face of Lianfu.

Hua Bud's aunt thanked her for taking her son out. Yue Yao said to Hua Bud: "I will take Tingzheng to Uncle Li's house the day after tomorrow, and you let this child learn the rules during this time." ”
