Chapter 17: The Hidden Star (1)
[Chapter 17: 61 Hidden Stars]
Soon after, Cheng Jingyi began to attend classes in the study room step by step.
She seems to have returned to her childhood, following Brother Jiu every day, with a little tail, to go to the outer study to read. It's just that now she has to go to the study with Qilin'er to take classes. She only brought Qiu Wei with her, but Qilin'er asked the nurse to watch her mother and the girl follow four or five. Although Fu Lizhen didn't come along, she occasionally had to come to visit.
Jingyi picked up the textbook again after nearly a year. Although I reviewed my homework for some days before the start of the class, I was still a little uncomfortable at first class. Coupled with the hot weather, it is not hard. Fortunately, the course schedule is not tight, and Ren Xiufang and Hu Shaobo each teach three classes every week. Most of the classes are scheduled on the same day. Hu Shaobo taught German and Latin, while Jingyi took classes with Qilin'er. They all start from the basics, and the smart and clever Qilin'er learns no slower than Jingyi. Occasionally, Ren Xiufang also joined, and the atmosphere in the classroom became better.
Jingyi has Qilin'er, a little companion in the school, and she has a lot of fun in addition to schoolwork. Hu Shaobo is elegant, Ren Xiufang is intelligent, and both of them are extremely knowledgeable people. Jingyi studied with them and made rapid progress in her studies.
Ren Xiufang spared no effort to run the nursery she founded. Jingyi and Eryi go to volunteer every now and then. Although there are still some people gossiping, after all, they are doing good deeds, and they are still with Eryi, Jingyi doesn't feel too sad. is also because the unicorn is always sticking to Jingyi, Fu Lizhen and Jingyi have more contact during the day, and sometimes they are willing to go to the nursery to see. Driven by them, a group of ladies and ladies joined, and the nursery school gradually became impressive.
Jingyi came up with the idea of replacing Ren Xiufang and hired Mrs. Luo Tao Shengchun and Mrs. Tao Hu Defen as honorary deans. As a result, not only the reputation of the nursery school has gradually opened, but the support they have received has become more and more secure, and it has become much easier for Jingyi and Eryi to enter and leave the nursery school. This move, although it is Jingyi's secret mediation, even Ren Xiufang has to praise Jingyi's ingenuity. Jingyi only felt that she was helping to do a good deed, and to do it for a long time, she had to plan carefully.
It's just that gradually, Jing Yi felt that Ren Xiufang was not simple. This judgment was even more convinced when the nursery school met Xiao Dunhuang, who came to help.
When Dunhuang first saw Jingyi in the nursery, it was not as surprising as her.
He generously did not call Mrs. Tao or Miss Ten, not even Miss Catherine, who was known to everyone in the nursery, but called her by her first name, Cheng Jingyi.
Jing Yi was taken aback by his audacity. But think about it, this man who is full of gangsters anytime and anywhere has such a strong momentum. No matter how awkward she feels, there is nothing she can do with him. Besides, he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, so he had to go with him...... She also knew that since Dunhuang was caught and released by Tao Xiang, maybe there was some tacit understanding between the two, and Dunhuang did not go to Fulong Mountain or enter the pottery system, but stayed in the city. Xiao Dunhuang himself said that he was at home, but in fact, he helped the family take care of business.
The shop is located behind the church and next to the nursery.
Jingyi once went from the church with Ren Xiufang and missionary Joseph to deliver yogurt to the nursery school, and saw Xiao Dunhuang sitting at the door of his shop, bargaining with the guests—standing in the middle of the paper lanterns on the street, the children in the nursery screamed and ran around, and the foaming of the mouths of the two sides of the discussion between Dunhuang and the guests was flying—Jingyi rarely saw such a fireworks scene, and she couldn't help but feel fresh.
Ren Xiufang and Joseph smiled and said that Mr. Xiao can be literate and martial, and he is also an iron abacus in business, and he can't be fooled.
While they were talking, they were discovered by Dunhuang. He clutched the money bag and asked the guests to move their belongings. The street in front of the shop was quickly cleared and smooth. When the children saw the priest coming with yogurt, they gathered around him. Jingyi helped to share the food for them, and watched Dunhuang stand by, and from time to time a child ran over with his bowl of yogurt to invite him to eat, and he tasted it with a smile...... The children laughed happily, and Ren Xiufang scolded Dunhuang.
Xiao Dunhuang unceremoniously shouted Ren Xiufang "Ren Cannon" in front of everyone, and asked Ren Dacang when he would settle the herbal medicine money with him - Ren Xiufang was not annoyed, and replied to him with an iron rooster, ignoring him to collect the debt. Ren Xiufang saw that Jingyi was confused by Dunhuang's style, and explained her relationship with the Xiao family with a smile. Ren Xiufang's aunt also lives nearby, and the two of them are old neighbors - Jingyi watched Xiao Dunhuang carrying a money bag and following behind Ren Xiufang to ask for money for herbal medicine, but Ren Xiufang was unceremoniously kicked out, and she was still standing at the door of the nursery school, playing with a few children. After a while, I'll drive them back like chicks.
He smiled and said to Jingyi, who helped distribute the yogurt: "Cheng Jingyi, Ren Cannon owes a lot of debt. You beware when she abducts you......"
Ren Xiufang carried the spoon of yogurt in her hand, shook off her steps and went towards Dunhuang, chased him and scolded him, closed the door again, and came back to distribute yogurt as usual, ignoring Joseph's vigorous laughter and Jingyi's doubts.
Ren Xiufang said to Jingyi in private that this person is extremely affectionate, and if the nursery school does not have his repeated support in secret, I am afraid it may not be able to do it...... And the money for the herbs, Deng Dunhuang didn't ask for it for himself. Fulong Mountain is cold, and the other plants on the mountain are not long, and there are several kinds of herbs that are lush when planted, and they are excellent medicinal materials when they come out.
Jingyi has been to Fulong Mountain.
Although in addition to the horror in my memory, only the white snow remains, thinking about it, I still feel that if it is not a bandit's nest, maybe it is really a paradise...... After knowing this person for a long time, I think he is really an idealist. Dunhuang himself didn't seem to care about this. The children in the nursery school were playing, and when he watched from the sidelines, his squinting and smiling eyes seemed to be very satisfied at the moment. I can't tell that he was once a powerful soldier, nor can I see that he is a ruthless bandit...... just turned his face to see her, called her Cheng Jingyi, and was not polite when he squeezed her.
Especially when Tao Xiang is mentioned occasionally, it is even more polite.
Jingyi always became more silent than usual when people mentioned Tao Xiang.
Maybe no one has ever shouted the word "Cheng Jingyi" so refreshingly, and Jingyi is not disgusted with Dunhuang calling her like this. Tao Xiang is sometimes angry with her, and he will call her by name and surname. Vicious, like devouring her name...... She couldn't imagine that Tao Xiang would be surrounded by a group of even dirty children so unscrupulously, sharing food with them without disgust.
He seems to have been born high......
"Cheng Jingyi, did you lose it?" Dunhuang was calling her.
Jing Yi was carrying two packets of herbs, and when she saw him looking at her with a smile, but there was nothing in her hand, she frowned and asked, "What is it?" I didn't lose it......"
"Haven't lost it yet?" Xiao Dunhuang walked over, clapped his hands, and threw it at her.
Jing Yi was stunned.
Xiao Dunhuang took the herbs in her hand and said, "You lost your soul again." ”
He smiled faintly, as if he had seen through something under her eyes.
Jingyi coughed.
Xiao Dunhuang asked: "I heard that you actually lost the exam to the newly enlightened child?" ”
Jingyi was stunned and asked, "What did Doctor Ren say?" That's not counting...... Just dictate the words......"
Xiao Dunhuang was also stunned, and then laughed, laughing and saying: "Why, you can't even write words silently?" I thought it was ...... Thought you ...... Hahaha......"
His laughter was hearty and loud, attracting the children to look at him, and Jingyi became more and more embarrassed.
"I'm just saying that the day before yesterday Joseph asked the kids to take a sign language test, and I heard you compare 'I'm sorry' to 'I love you', and the kids laughed all day...... What exactly are you thinking? It's not that you lost your soul, but what is it? "Dunhuang teased Jingyi.
Of course, Jingyi didn't expect this joke to reach the ears of Xiao Dunhuang. In fact, she found Joseph's American sign language interesting, so she learned a little bit about it. Don't want to go wrong...... She glared and said, "Tigers also have times when they nap." ”
Xiao Dunhuang continued to laugh and help bring the herbs in, Joseph and Ren Xiufang were there, seeing the two of them come in with a smile and ask what was going on, they couldn't help but laugh for a while. Jingyi was so embarrassed that she couldn't do it. Seeing her embarrassed, they laughed even harder.
Ren Xiufang said with a smile: "Catherine is unruly these days. God does not keep giving up like this, and the learning progress is still very fast, which shows that a good foundation is a good foundation...... Is it because of Seven Less? There has been no news in the newspaper for a while. ”
"So I persuaded my seventh sister-in-law to come out for a walk when she was free, it's better than being bored at home and thinking cranky." Eryi came in from outside and said with a smile.
Jingyi turned around and saw her, smiling silently. I also know that Er Yi said this, it is a bit taboo to Dunhuang.
Xiao Dunhuang and Er Yi are also familiar with it, and they are used to the sharp teeth of this eighth lady of the Tao family, and they have long been unimpressed by this. After a long time, I am willing to talk about some serious topics...... If you read the news, there are always some places to talk about with Dunhuang; And Dunhuang is by no means like her father and brothers, or too serious, or too severe, or when she is a child, he refuses to talk to her deeply.
Xiao Dunhuang smiled and said: "Little tail is here again, get out of class early today?" Have you time to catch your seventh sister-in-law? ”
"Today's class is boring...... When it was said to be a discussion, no one read the books assigned by the teacher, and a class was hasty and a waste of time. Er Yi said, deliberately showing childishness, dragging Jingyi's hand and not relaxing.
"Eighth sister, I won't run again." Jingyi was helpless.
