Chapter 20 Gagged~
The collar bracelet given by Mrs. Zhu quickly came in handy, and Zhao Changqing followed his father Zhao Yong to give a New Year's gift to a foreign family, and he wore this set. The Ling family did not notice Zhao Changqing's "sinister intentions", and praised Zhao Changqing for his good-looking appearance, and told the father and daughter to go early and return early, so they let them go.
In fact, Zhao Changqing's intentions can't be called "sinister", she is purely because Third Sister Ling is so annoying, and she thinks that Third Sister Ling is the most greedy and jealous of her temperament, so she dressed up as rich and noble to go to the Ling family to stab Third Sister Ling's eyes.
Moreover, or if he was too accustomed to being an invisible person in his previous life, things must be reversed, so Zhao Changqing added some stinky problems that he likes to show off. However, there are obviously not many people who can get rid of the smell and show off. First, she has a limited social circle. Second, after all, she is a person who has lived for decades, and if Zhao Changqing is asked to show off to others, she may not be able to do it. For example, every time he goes to Xiao Lihuaer's house, Zhao Changqing will change into ordinary clothes. In Zhao Changqing's view, this is also a kind of politeness. Third, such as the Zhu family and the Chu family, they all need her to look up to, and she can't show off if she wants to.
Therefore, after being selected by Zhao Changqing in his heart, the Ling family turned out to be the best object of display.
So, Zhao Changqing dressed up in flowers and went with his father.
Old Lady Ling was very happy to see her, and hugged her in her arms for a while, "Miss Qing hasn't been here for a few days." ”
Zhao Changqing said skillfully, and said with a sensible little appearance, "Grandmother, my mother is pregnant with a little brother, and I have to take care of my mother at home, so there will be fewer people coming out." ”
Aunt Ling Erwife smiled, "Miss Qing knows filial piety at a young age, and she is better than your cousins." ”
Zhao Changqing smiled implicitly, "The eldest cousin can make pastries and tailor clothes now, she can share her worries with her eldest uncle, and she is also very sensible and filial." I'm still far from my eldest cousin. Grandmother, why don't you see your cousins? ”
Mrs. Ling smiled, "It's a coincidence today, your eldest cousin followed your eldest uncle to their grandfather's house." Your third cousin and cousin are at home, and they're learning to read and write. "Ling Yahuan went to call her grandchildren over.
"Literacy? Isn't my cousin already in school? It's going to be the New Year, are you still reviewing your homework? ”
Second Mrs. Ling smiled, "It's your cousin, I envy you for studying, and now that your cousin has nothing to do, I'll teach her to recognize some words." ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "I see that my cousin also likes to study, and she has to borrow my books to read when she still doesn't know how to read." I didn't borrow it, and she lost her temper with me, but it scared me out. ”
Eight hundred years have passed Zhao Changqing is still hanging on his lips, especially the things that are not so long-faced, Mrs. Ling's smile stiffened slightly, "I heard that our Qing girl was so angry, and then I asked your cousin to apologize to you, but you are not at home, and now the anger can be eliminated?" ”
"Uncle and aunt think too much, we are cousins, who really holds a little thing to rest assured. I just feel that my third cousin is a powerful person, and I still want to say a few good words to my cousin, so that she will not bully me in the future. Zhao Changqing smiled, "My mother also told me this, telling us sisters to get along well and be good sisters for a lifetime." ”
Second Mrs. Ling listened to her for a while, and she didn't know whether to be angry or happy, so she had to smile and say to her mother-in-law, Mrs. Ling, "In the past, I didn't realize that the mouth of the young girl was really more and more coincidental, and she spoke like an adult. ”
Old Mrs. Ling smiled, "I will be five years old next year, and the child will soon grow up." ”
Mrs. Ling's feelings towards Zhao Changqing are not as complicated as Mrs. Ling's, she has always said little, and at this moment, she said, "This child is born with spirituality. ”
As he was talking, Third Sister Ling and Ling Teng arrived.
Third Sister Ling greeted her affectionately, and took Zhao Changqing's hand with a smile, "I heard that my sister is coming, I was looking forward to my sister early in the morning." ”
Zhao Changqing also smiled, "I heard that my sister is learning to read and write from my cousin, but I disturbed my sister's homework." ”
Ling Sanjie smiled, "But learn to recognize three or two words, don't be blind." ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "Sister Linghui, cousin is also very good, otherwise, how can I have the patience to teach my sisters to read." That is, now that the eldest sister, second sister, and fourth sister are not at home, if the cousin teaches the third sister alone, and the eldest sister comes back after a while, won't the cousin have to teach again. Zhao Changqing suggested with an innocent face, "If you want me to say, it's better to fix a time, and my cousin will save time by teaching together like Master Xueli." Cousin, cousin, do you think that's what I'm talking about? When my little brother grows up, I will teach him to read and write. ”
As soon as Zhao Changqing spoke, Ling Teng's face froze, and Mrs. Ling didn't speak lightly. Second Mrs. Ling reacted quickly and said with a smile, "Your third sister just recognizes three or five words occasionally, where do you still need to pay attention to the set of learning?" When your big sister wants to learn, it's the same to ask your cousin to recognize it. ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "Oh." ”
Third Sister Ling immediately smiled and said, "There are newly bought dim sum at home, although it is not from Nanxiangyuan, it is also delicious." I'm going to get it for my sister. "Shut this girl's mouth!
"Third Sister Xie Lu." Zhao Changqing's smile became sweeter and sweeter.
However, Ling Teng thought about Zhao Changqing's opinion very seriously, nodded and said to Mrs. Ling, "Auntie, it's still Sister Qing's right." I didn't think of this method at first, and the sisters in the family don't need to be knowledgeable, and it's always good to know a few more words. You don't have to study more every day, learn three words, it's thousands of words a year, at least it's okay to read a letter and account book in the future, and I won't delay my homework. ”
Second Mrs. Ling was suddenly anxious, how could she not delay her homework? If the son has to study hard every day, does he still have to find time to teach his sisters?
Don't be idle, Brother Teng, this kid is really good-hearted. Mrs. Ling smiled, "It's still your homework that matters most." ”
Ling Teng smiled, "If I really have that qualification, I won't fail the test because I teach my sisters a few words every day." If you don't have that qualification, even if you read it, it's in vain. Don't worry, I know it. ”
Mrs. Ling smiled and touched Ling Teng's head, "You brothers and sisters, you can discuss it." "As a mother-in-law, if there is an opportunity, which one will oppose her daughter's literacy and study.
Zhao Changqing was really impressed by Ling Teng, in her previous life, she only knew that Ling Teng was a capable person, and she didn't want him to be so spiritual at a young age.
Ling Teng pursed his lips at Zhao Changqing and asked, "Where did my sister read the book?" ”
Zhao Changqing said, "I have finished reading the "Three Character Classic" and "Thousand Character Text", and I am reading the "Analects". ”
Ling Teng did not hesitate to praise, "My sister only learned to recognize words this year, and the speed is already very fast. "Three Character Classic" and "Thousand Character Text" are all enlightened, and it is enough to recognize some common words. Does my sister like to read the Analects, and you don't have to take the imperial examination, I am also reading the Analects in school, and I always feel a little boring. ”
Zhao Changqing smiled, "I read the book and said, 'Jade is not cut, it is not a tool, people do not learn, do not know righteousness', even if it is boring, it is not harmful to be able to understand some truths." However, I don't need to take the imperial examination, I just have read it, and I don't need to delve into the subtle meanings. ”
Ling Teng smiled, "This is also 'good reading, don't seek to understand'." ”
For a while, Ling Sanjie came with a snack in her hand and said with a smile, "What do you say if you can't read?" The two of you got together and fell in love. ”
Ling Teng first took a piece of pastry and handed it to Zhao Changqing, and smiled, "Sister Qing try it." ”
Third Sister Ling smiled, "Sister Qing has even eaten the banquet in the General's Mansion, so she won't be able to see our family's rough dim sum, right?" ”
Zhao Changqing took a delicate bite of the small handkerchief and said, "I have something to think about, and I have something to say." I'm not such a person, but the third sister suddenly said this, isn't it that I am such a snob in the third sister's heart? ”
"If this is the case, I can't even joke with you." Third Sister Ling looked at Zhao Changqing with her cheeks and said, "I envy my sister, I went with my sister to congratulate the ancestor of the Zhu family on his birthday, how could my sister get the eyes of the girl in the General's Mansion?" ”
Ling Teng frowned, "Sister, this is also worth talking about." Each has its own fate. ”
"Sister Qing is not an outsider, so I'll ask." Third Sister Ling was born with this temperament, she was so affectionate to Zhao Changqing, and she gave Zhao Changqing snacks to eat, not just to block Zhao Changqing's mouth. Third Sister Ling asked with a smile, "Sister Qing told me, the girls in the General's Mansion are not beautiful, how do you treat people?" I heard that she came from the south, and the people from the south looked like the people from our border city? ”
Zhao Changqing showed a slightly surprised look, looked at Third Sister Ling with big black and white eyes, and asked innocently, "Didn't Third Sister meet Miss General earlier?" Why do you still ask me? ”
"Where have I seen it? Although it is said that the girl from the Zhu family's ancestor went to the General's Mansion that day, there were so many ladies at that time, even if they saw it, they didn't remember it. Third Sister Ling was still ignorant.
Zhao Changqing was no longer polite at the moment, and smiled slightly, "That's what the third sister told me, the sister who has eaten a lot of oranges is Sister Chu." Didn't the third sister still say that Sister Chu was a fool? ”
Third Sister Ling's face changed drastically at the moment, and she really hated to pass it immediately, or pray that God would turn back time and let her take back what she had said at the beginning.
Third Sister Ling was angry at the moment and said, "My sister already knew the identity of Miss Lu Daochu, why didn't she tell me earlier?" ”
Zhao Changqing raised two faint eyebrows and asked rhetorically, "How could I have known the Dao earlier?" I also met Sister Chu when I was celebrating my ancestor's birthday. At that time, no one knew that Sister Lu Daochu was a girl from the General's Mansion, so if you don't believe it, you can go and inquire. When did you say that Sister Chu was a fool? Think about it for yourself, what you told me at my house after having a banquet at Zhu's house that day, Cousin Teng was also on the side at that time. After that, I met with my cousin, and she said how could I tell you earlier? ”
Third Sister Ling's face was embarrassed and regretful, she couldn't care about anything else, she said pitifully, "Sister Qing, you don't have to tell Miss Chu what your sister said stupidly, right?" ”
"The third sister is really, you are my cousin, I have nothing to do but go to tell an outsider about your gossip, I am such a person who does not distinguish between inside and outside?" Saying that, Zhao Changqing made a benevolent and righteous face. However, what Chu Yu guessed had nothing to do with her!
Third Sister Ling breathed a sigh of relief, put her mind at ease, and smiled, "How come?" Our sisters are the best, I can't trust others, and I can't trust my sister. ”
As soon as her spirit was relaxed, Third Sister Ling inquired with Zhao Changqing again, "Yo, my sister's circle and bracelet are all new, right?" It's really good-looking, when did you hit it? ”
Ling Teng really couldn't listen to it, so he took a piece of cake and gave it to Ling Sanjie, and said, "Sister, eat a snack." ”
Silence!
