Chapter 27: Xiugu

After Ran Qiunian entered the house, he immediately found that his grandmother was not the only one in the house.

She looked at Mama Jin with a kind smile with some surprise, and there was a younger woman standing beside her, with a calm breath, looking very capable and very familiar.

Ran Qiunian searched quickly in his mind for a moment, and only then did he reflect from the name "Xiugu" who the person in front of him was.

Ran Qiunian's heart jumped heavily, a little unbelievable, his face much younger than he remembered had not seen the dejected and embarrassed after a few years.

And in her memory, half of Xiugu's face at that time was horrific burns, one leg was lame, because a spike of splendid city on her body aroused Ran Qiunian's homesickness, she was picked up from the street, as a poor deaf and dumb beggar, and brought back to the then husband's Qi State Mansion.

At that time, when Ran Qiunian first arrived in the capital, she was not familiar with many etiquette rules, and the Qi State Mansion had bad intentions, if it were not for Aunt Xiu's secret teaching, she would not have been able to gain a firm foothold in the aristocratic circle of the capital.

But later, in order to save herself from the house arrest of the Duke of Qi, Xiugu was also killed by the Qi family.

It was only then that she realized that Xiu Gu still had such a good martial arts.

I didn't expect my grandmother to know Xiugu. Ran Qiunian was surprised and delighted in her heart, although she was still a little confused about the scene in front of her, she instinctively believed in her grandmother and Xiugu.

Ran Qiunian stepped forward and gave a junior salute to Mama Jin and Xiugu, which was extremely beautiful and standard. It used the social etiquette of the nobles in Beijing, and the one I just learned in the morning was also taught by Aunt Xiu in the previous life.

It was not surprising to see the satisfied look in Mama Jin's eyes, but Xiu Gu's eyes were still as calm as ever, and Ran Qiunian couldn't see anything.

"Grandmother, what is this?"

Ran Qiunian couldn't help but ask.

But I saw my grandmother and Mama Jin glancing at each other, looked at her and said with a smile: "It's also a coincidence, your child suddenly has a heart for reading, so I want to invite you from the capital to ask a grandmother who has retired from the palace to teach." ”

"After asking, I found out that your Mama Jin just retired from the palace not long ago, and I have been friends with your Mama Jin for many years, so I was cheeky enough to send someone to send a letter and look forward to it."

Mama Jin looked at Ran Qiunian happily, different from the strictness of the women's school during the day, at this time, Mama Jin looked at Ran Qiunian's eyes like her grandmother, kind and kind, so that Ran Qiunian couldn't help but feel a little touched.

"I just want to come out to hide quietly, live two years of leisure, come to Splendid City to teach etiquette, and get together with old friends, this day is very beautiful. After some teaching today, Miss Nian is really as your grandmother said, she is a gifted person, and she is terrifying in the future. ”

"Mama Jin just call me Nian'er, since you are a good friend of your grandmother, you are also Nian'er's elder. Nian'er is dull, and she deserves to be praised by Mama Jin. ”

Ran Qiunian's face turned red, she was really not talented, but she had already learned, and she had been immersed in the aristocratic circle of the capital for a long time, and these etiquette habits were engraved in her gestures, and she couldn't forget it if she wanted to.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Xiu Gu quietly, Xiu Gu, who had not spoken much, but her eyes were directly opposite that Xiu Gu had seen, and she couldn't help but reflexively smile back at Xiu Gu.

Xiu Gu was stunned for a moment, and looked back at Ran Qiu with some surprise.

"Mama Jin, grandmother, who is this aunt?"

Ran Qiunian felt some irrepressible excitement and curiosity in her heart, no wonder in her previous life, Aunt Xiu suddenly treated herself so well after knowing her name, it turned out that she had the credit of her grandmother.

"This is your Mama Jin's niece, who also followed me in the barracks, at that time, don't look at her young age, but her skills are very good, horseback riding and archery are first-class, so many years have passed in a blink of an eye."

Grandmother's eyes were full of nostalgia, and Ran Qiunian also had some mixed feelings, it turned out to be her grandmother's old department, and she was Mama Jin's niece, no wonder the etiquette and martial arts were so good.

Thinking of the fate of Xiu Gu in her previous life, presumably Mama Jin at that time was also in an unpredictable situation, Ran Qiunian suddenly felt a little lucky, glad that she was forced to study by Xiao Yin, so that her grandmother invited Mama Jin and Xiu Gu from the capital together and met with her in advance.

"As long as the general needs it, Ah Xiu will follow him to the death, and there will be no two words."

Xiu Gu continued to use the name of her youth to the old lady, and the old lady's eyes were in a trance for a moment, but she quickly smiled and shook her head, dispelling the delusions that should not be in her mind, and looked at Xiu Gu with a serious expression with a smile.

"You kid, you still have such a stubborn temper, and you haven't changed at all. But I'm old, no older than before, and you don't have to be bound by the past all the time. ”

Ran Qiu Nian saw that her grandmother's words seemed to be a little sad, and she seemed to be unwilling to feel the regret of her grandmother being confined to the back house, she broke her grandmother's somewhat depressed thoughts, and stepped forward to hold her grandmother's arm and gag.

"Where is grandmother old, in Nian'er's heart, grandmother has always been the most powerful, Nian'er also wants to be like grandmother, and when she grows up, she will be a heroine who does not let her eyebrows go!"

The old lady was amused by Ran Qiunian's childish "bold words", and the gloom of recalling the past was swept away, and she couldn't cry or laugh at Ran Qiunian's nose.

"I've discussed it with your Mama Jin, she's old, and it's a little lacking in energy to take a disciple alone, so let your Xiu Gu follow you and teach you personally, you have to study hard, don't embarrass your Xiu Gu, you know?"

I didn't expect Ran Susu to really say it, the old lady has such a connection, so naturally she has to follow Ran Qiu's thoughts first, and the meaning of opening a small stove is very straightforward.

Ran Qiunian was moved by her grandmother's intentions, and thought that she had learned all the things that Aunt Xiu taught her in her previous life anyway, so she responded with joy.

"Nian'er greets Master Xiugu. In the future, Master Xiugu will have to take care of it more, and Nian'er will definitely learn etiquette from Master Xiugu. ”

Ran Qiunian was still silently lamenting the master-apprentice fate that she and Xiu Gu couldn't erase in their lives, but she didn't know that she would have to be pressed to learn this and that for a long time.

The old lady and Mama Jin were also happy when they saw that Ran Qiunian was very accepting of Aunt Xiu.

Because the old lady attaches great importance to Xiu Nian's skills, she sent her to Ran Qiu Nian so solemnly, in addition to wanting Ran Qiu Nian to learn some skills, she also has the intention of letting Xiu Gu follow Ran Qiu Nian and escort her all the way.

Among the four people present, only Ran Qiunian didn't expect this, and was only full of joy that he was reborn in a lifetime, and he was happy that he had inadvertently avoided the future tragedy of Master Xiugu and Mama Jin.

When Ran Qiunian came, there were two people, and when she went back, she became three people, but she didn't feel any discomfort, and happily took Xiu Gu back to her yard, and ordered someone to clean up the west wing where Liu Yunyao lived before, and arrange for Xiu Gu to live in.

"Master Xiugu will live in the West Wing in the future, although it is a little far from my house, it is the best room except for my main house."

Ran Qiunian knows Xiugu's temperament very well, although she doesn't talk much, she is resourceful, once she identifies a person, she will never betray easily, and she is a very reassuring person.

Although Xiu Gu was a little puzzled about why Ran Qiunian was so attentive to herself, and even a little unconsciously dependent on closeness, she didn't ask too much, but she was already determined to teach and support Ran Qiunian well for all kinds of courtesies from Ran Qiunian.

"Tomorrow when the girls' school is over, we will start teaching in this courtyard. You're just the right age now, and you won't have such good results in a few years. ”

Ran Qiunian nodded, she knew, pot throwing, a social game in the aristocratic circle in Beijing, she also learned it from this in her previous life, and then there were polo, wood shooting, and fighting grass...... That's all there is to the gathering of the nobles in Beijing, and there has been no major change in hundreds of years.

It's boring, but it's been a long time since the boring days in the capital, and the boring games have become interesting.

Ran Qiunian has already made up his mind, and when the time comes, he will unexpectedly reveal his "one-point understanding" in these, so as to end the teaching as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, when she came back from school on the second day, Ran Qiunian changed into narrow-sleeved clothes and was about to show off her skills in the courtyard, when she saw Master Xiugu throw a bow and arrow into her hand.

"It turns out that today is to learn archery first, Master Xiugu, your slingshot looks like a real bow and arrow......

Ran Qiunian smiled dryly and touched the thing in his hand, which was a bow and arrow, no matter how he looked at it, trying to fight for himself again, Clinker Xiugu glanced at her strangely, and directly broke Ran Qiunian's luck psychology.

"This is the bow and arrow, if you want to learn it, you can learn it best, and you will use it in the future."

Xiu Gu didn't notice Ran Qiunian's abnormality, and she seriously planned to hand over all her skills to Ran Qiunian, what she was best at was riding and archery and identifying herbs, and these were all useful skills for Ran Qiunian, she didn't plan to hide her secrets at all.

Ran Qiu swallowed her saliva, coughed lightly, and looked at Xiu Gu's serious appearance, only then did she realize that she was still naΓ―ve in what she thought before.

The time to meet Xiu Gu in this life has been advanced, and the circumstances of the two are different, which will naturally lead to changes in what Xiu Gu taught her.

In her previous life, she lived in a back house and was eager to integrate into the circle in Beijing, but Xiu Gu suffered a big change and was exhausted, so naturally she could only teach her some quick fur.

After thinking about this, Ran Qiunian also dispelled her previous plan, and decided to learn from Aunt Xiu well, which was also the regret of Master Xiugu in her previous life.

In the midst of such falls, Ran Qiunian's growth is getting faster and faster, and the temperament on his body has also undergone subtle changes.

The open and secret battles between the girls in the girls' school gradually became boring, but they didn't know that their changes made the jealousy in Ran Susu's eyes deeper and deeper.

On this day, Ran Qiunian went to the women's school to listen to the lecture as usual, and only then did she step into the courtyard, and saw a girl walking in a hurry under the eaves, looked around, and saw that no one was paying attention, so she walked quickly to Ran Qiunian's side and pulled the person to a hidden place.

Ran Qiu Nian looked at it and was suddenly a little surprised, isn't this Ran Yu'er?
