In the evening, Zhen Niang began to get nervous, and she hadn't decided whether to wait for Mr. Liu on the road, or wait until Mr. Liu went back to eat first, and then she went over.

Talking on the road, she was afraid of delaying Mr. Liu's meal, he had been teaching in the school for an afternoon, he must be very tired, she didn't want to be tired of him.

But when you wait until you have dinner and then go to his house to look for him, if you are seen by others, you will definitely not be able to tell.

After being entangled, she still decided to wait until after dinner, and she went directly to Liu Yu'an's house, firstly, she had plenty of time, and secondly, she could talk to him for a while.

And she is not afraid of being seen, at most she has no reputation, but she is willing to spread the word for Mr. Liu to have no reputation! She can have something to do with him, too.

After Zhen Niang thought about it herself, she planned to clean up herself. She has an average appearance, and she looks more than delicate at most, but she is not beautiful enough.

If there is no foil from others, Zhen Niang can still say that she is good, but Sister Yang is in front, and she can still look good! There is also Miss Zhou, who is also very beautiful, she stands in front of them, and she has no color at all.

They all live around, and Mr. Liu and Sister Yang are also familiar with each other, no matter how good-looking she is, Mr. Liu must feel average.

Zhen Niang thought about it and felt discouraged, she admired Sister Yang, but there was envy in it, but there was also jealousy, every time she saw Sister Yang so powerful, she could do anything, and she felt that her heart was sour.

Why did Sister Yang choose to live near their home? If she weren't there, she would be envied by others, she was also capable and well-behaved, her appearance was not bad, and her family was not poor. What's the matter, other girls are also a little envious of her.

If there was no Sister Yang, maybe Mr. Liu would have been able to see her, but she would have been as ordinary as she is now. Where can Mr. Liu still see her strengths?

Fortunately, Sister Yang has already married, and Mr. Liu will not think of other ideas, then she has a good chance, although Mr. Liu is unwilling to marry now, but if one day, he is willing to marry, among the girls around, she is the most suitable.

She knows that she is not worthy of Mr. Liu, whether it is family background or appearance, or even status, she is a girl from an ordinary family, although Mr. Liu does not know the specific family background, but he reads poetry and books, even if he reads, he is not like an ordinary child.

Besides, she looks average, but Mr. Liu is a fairy-like character, she has looked tempted more than once, and there must be reasons for her appearance in so much admiration.

In terms of status, she is very ordinary and nothing, but Mr. Liu has a school, teaches and educates people, and is always admired. And she heard Aunt Tang talk to her mother before, Mr. Liu originally obtained fame and went to the capital to become an official, but later he didn't like it before he came back to be a teacher.

When she first heard this, Zhen Niang felt pity and happiness, but it was a pity that many people studied hard in the cold window, just to gain fame and fame, and then become an official. That's a position of power or something, it's all there.

And even if you get fame, you may not be able to go to the capital to be an official, it is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, what a desirable place. But Mr. Liu gave up, even a boudoir girl like Zhen Niang, who didn't understand anything, also felt that it was a pity.

But she was glad that if Mr. Liu had been an official in the capital, he would definitely marry a young lady in the future, and an ordinary person like her would not even be able to see each other, and it would be impossible for her to have a chance to think about it.

Now it's unworthy, but isn't there no other choice? She always feels that she still has a chance, as long as there is no one else by Mr. Liu's side, she gets along every day and can always deal with feelings.

Zhen Niang thought about it for a long time, and it was not too early to look at the time, but when she looked at herself in the mirror, she was still not good-looking, not enough.

She sighed, but picked up the rouge gouache and drew some! It can almost add a few colors, so as not to make Mr. Liu uncomfortable.

The meal was ready, and Jane waited until her father and mother came back and then started the meal.

No matter how Aunt Zhang looked, she felt that Zhenniang was a little different from usual today, and she seemed to be a little more beautiful, and after a closer look, she found that she was wearing makeup.

"Why did you put on makeup today?" Aunt Zhang asked casually.

Zhen Niang's heart was weak for a moment, and then she calmed down again.

"Today's is the new rouge I bought last time, I'll see if it's good-looking. What do you think? "

"That's naturally good-looking, you're still young, you should dress up more, and don't always stay at home, if the things in the shop are almost busy, you go outside more, talk to the girls, and go out to play." Aunt Zhang said.

She used to think that her family Zhenniang was really well-behaved, helping to work at home every day, but it saved her a lot of time, and then she had a small one, and she took her younger brother to clean up the house.

The people around them don't say anything, their family Zhenniang is well-behaved, sensible and capable, and others are envious.

Now that she has some money at home, she wants her daughter to buy more clothes and buy some rouge gouache, she has reached the age of marriage, and she should dress up.

"yes, I see." Jane replied.

The better her mother treats her, the more guilty she is, but she has to hide this matter from others, even her mother can't say it, this kind of wishful thinking, she doesn't want anyone to know.

I'm going to set up a stall at night, her father is at home, and she doesn't go occasionally, so she told her mother today that she will be at home tonight, and she will go out tomorrow.

Her mother naturally agreed, so she instructed her to brush the dishes and chopsticks, and then lock the courtyard door, because her girl's house was not safe at night.

Zhen Niang answered, and Aunt Zhang left.

Zhen Niang exhaled, quickly washed the dishes and chopsticks, and then reapplied the grease, seeing that she was indeed better than usual in the mirror, and felt a little more comforted.

She took the book with her, and then secretly went out of the house and went to Mr. Liu's house.

After Liu Yu'an returned home, he closed the courtyard door, he didn't go out much, and few people came to look for him, only sometimes Tianbao was close, and when he read at night, he had some questions that he didn't understand, and he would run over to ask.

When Liu Yu'an heard someone knocking on the door, he came directly to open the door, and when he saw that it was Zhenniang, he was really surprised.

"Miss Zhang?"

"Mr. Liu, I'm really sorry, it's so late, I still have to trouble you, it's just that I'm a little busy during the day, and I only have time now, I don't know if Mr. Liu is free at this time, I said last time I have some questions to ask you......" Zhen Niang said with a shy smile.

"I see, Miss Zhang, come in! I'm free right now. Liu Yu'an said with a smile.

He did think of this time, it was not good for lonely men and widows to speak during the day, if they were seen by others at this time, it would definitely be bad for Miss Zhang's reputation.

But the girls have already come, and she also said that he is a little busy during the day, and he himself is usually in the school, so it is understandable that he has only found time now.

This is not the first time that Zhen Niang has entered this courtyard, when Aunt Tang lived here in the past, she and her mother also came to visit the door, but after Mr. Liu moved in, she never came in again.

It seems that nothing has changed, there is nothing in the yard in the first place, and now that Mr. Liu lives alone, there is nothing left.

It's just that Zhen Niang still feels that there is something different in her heart, it is a feeling, that is, this is Mr. Liu's home, and she came in as if she was stepping into Mr. Liu's heart for the first time.

"The humble house is simple, Miss Zhang can sit casually! I'll pour you a glass of water. "

"Mr. Liu lives alone and has already cleaned up very well. I'm not thirsty, sir, don't be busy. Zhen Niang hurriedly said.

"I didn't clean it up much, Aunt Tang and they cleaned up very well when they were here, and then I didn't get much of it, and I didn't have much to do, so I put it away by the way." Liu Yu'an explained with a smile.

"Yes, Aunt Tang loves to be clean and tidy up the house. When my mother and I came here before, my mother also said that Aunt Tang was the best at tidying up the house. I have seen so many houses, and I think that Aunt Tang and Sister Yang's house are the most elegant. Jane said.

"It's true."

Mentioning Yang Xu, Liu Yu'an was in a trance for a moment, and then smiled, it is true, he has also been to her house, and obviously there are no very luxurious things, but they are very beautiful and elegant.

He doesn't know why, when he likes someone, others mention it, and he feels honored.

"Miss Zhang, what are the problems? I'll take a look! Liu Yu'an asked.

At this time, it is really not early, and they can't chat here, and after a long delay in turning back, others will see it, and the explanation will not be clear. It's better to solve the problem quickly and let Miss Zhang go home early.

Jane Niang really wanted to delay a little longer, she was really bubbling in her heart, although she couldn't see it on the surface, but her palms were sweaty.

She had never spoken to Mr. Liu so closely, even if she hadn't said it for so long, she didn't know what to say, and even if she only said homely things, she was very happy.

"Ah, I forgot to say I forgot, I'm going to ask a question! That's it, I don't read much, the last time I went to buy a book, I also bought a book of poetry, I read some, I read slowly, and now I also read a few, there are some sentences that I can't understand......" Jane Niang said shyly.

"It's good, it's okay to read slowly, we shouldn't be in a hurry, reading is a good thing, you have to read slowly, you have to read a little more finely, you can understand it, and it's good to digest it. I think this poetry book is also good, it is very suitable for beginners, Miss Zhang just take her time. Liu Yu'an comforted.

He used to study and encountered a situation in a hurry, and his father at home was strict, so he would ask him to study more and rush to get famous. He is sometimes very anxious, so many books, does he have to see the Year of the Monkey and the month of the horse.

So when he was ignorant, he read quickly, relying on his good memory, he directly memorized the article, thinking that this was the mastery.

Actually, when the gentleman asked again, he found that he couldn't do anything but memorize. I don't understand what it means, let alone understand it.

Later, I was not in a hurry to read, but very quickly, after reading through, I felt that I liked it very much, reading is not for fame, I have learned a lot from reading, that is, those truths and methods, are more and more known.

"Yes, I listen to my husband, but I'm stupid! I guess I've been reading this book for a long time. Jane said embarrassedly.

This is true, she has no talent for reading, and her family has not taught her before, but she doesn't want to learn anymore, she really has no interest, and she feels that she understands too slowly, so she slowly loses interest at all.

Zhen Niang was still thinking that if Mr. Liu taught her, she would definitely be interested in learning, Mr. Liu spoke so gently, and even when he comforted her, his tone was so gentle and patient.

"No one is stupid, Miss Zhang may understand more slowly, it doesn't matter, reading is expensive, you must feel boring at first, but after understanding, you will feel endless. Especially after reading a lot of books, you will learn a lot, and you will not feel that reading is a painful thing. The most important thing is that it's never too late to read, it can be a lifelong thing, and when you read, you can learn something, so why not? "

Zhen Niang sneered and laughed, she didn't think it was funny, she just thought, Mr. Liu is really a gentleman, he likes to teach others to read, and she has never seen Mr. Liu say so much.

The words they said together were not as much as they are today, and sure enough, when it came to reading, Mr. Liu would say more.

"I'm sorry, I don't mean to joke Mr., it's just that I've known Mr. Liu for a long time, and I've never heard Mr. say so much, Mr. Liu is really a book lover, only when he talks about reading, he will say so much."

Zhen Niang was afraid that Liu Yu'an would misunderstand her and laugh at him, so she hurriedly explained.

"It's okay, it's really my habit, I don't know how to speak, so I don't talk much every day, I just love to read, and I hope everyone reads more, when I encounter this time, it is inevitable to talk a little more, so that the girl can see the joke." Liu Yu'an said with a smile.

This is indeed the problem of being a teacher, and after a long time, he really takes this as a habit. When he encounters students who don't like to read, he always has to educate them.

Now I forgot that Miss Zhang was not his student, but just came to ask questions, and he accidentally said a little too much.

It's better to answer the questions quickly, so as not to make a mistake late.
