Chapter 276: Why did you suddenly come to the capital
The next morning, when Zhong Xiaoshu woke up, Yin Zhige had already gone to the court.
No matter how the situation changes on the side of the court, which prince goes down, which prince comes up again, the people are discussing, and life still has to go on.
Zhong Xiaoshu called Sakura over and talked to Sakura, and suddenly thought that Sakura will be 6 years old this year, and the 6-year-old female doll should also find a gentleman to enlighten or something.
Although it was just a whim, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she should do it.
However, she didn't know how the nobles in the capital enlightened their own girls, and they couldn't go to school together like boys, so she called Nianwu over and asked.
"Nianwu, I think Sakura should also read some books and recognize some words, you know more about the capital than I do, do you know if there is a person or institution that specializes in teaching girls to read and write?"
Nian Wu tilted his head and thought for a while: "Generally, aristocratic women are taught by the old grandmother in the palace, but over the years, the concept has also opened up a bit, and there are also some schools dedicated to women's reading, and there are also female gentlemen who can invite one-on-one teaching at home." The slave maid felt that Miss Sakura had a shy personality and was the niece of the dignified general of the third grade, so Mrs. could go to the palace and invite an old lady to teach, which was not only literate and polite, but also safer. ”
Zhong Xiaoshu shook his head, not quite agreeing with Nian Wu's statement: "What the old grandmother in the palace can teach, it is nothing more than some old-fashioned old rules, my Sakura Sakura can't be taught to be a feudal boudoir weak girl." ”
is like Ning Shuya, who is obviously the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion, but because of the mistakes made by her biological mother and the pedantic ideological education she was exposed to since childhood, she ended up living so miserably, she was not even as good as a maid.
If you hadn't met yourself......
Speaking of Ning Shuya, Zhong Xiaoshu also felt that she hadn't seen her for a long time, counting the days, the child in her belly should also be unloaded, right?
There have been too many things lately, and I don't have time to ask her out again.
Zhong Xiaoshu got up and stood up, and said to Nianwu: "You go to the small kitchen to pack a few snacks, come with me to see Shu Ya, and by the way, I will also ask her about the girls' school." ”
"Yes, ma'am." Nian Wu took the order and turned away, and after a while, he came back with the packed snacks.
At this time, Xiao Shu had already changed his clothes and tidied up himself, and the master and servant went out together.
When I saw her at Ning Shuya's house, sure enough, Ning Shuya's belly was already big to the extreme.
Zhong Xiaoshu walked over and looked at her in surprise, "Shu Ya, your belly is too big, right?" ”
She had never had the opportunity to see a pregnant woman's big belly so closely!
Ning Shuya's thin little face now has a little more meat, her cheeks are slightly red, it is a very healthy color, and even her smile has a maternal brilliance: "Pregnant women have such big bellies, Xiao Shu, why are you free?" ”
As he spoke, he was about to get up to greet Zhong Xiaoshu.
Zhong Xiaoshu hurriedly gestured to her, "Don't move, sit down, you're about to give birth, right?" ”
Ning Shuya didn't see Zhong Xiaoshu as much as before, and when she heard this, she really sat still, and replied: "The doctor said that it was just the last few days, and it should be born in only half a month at the latest." ”
"Wow, when the time comes, when your child is born, I must recognize a godmother to be a godmother!"
Zhong Xiaoshu also sat down and asked Nianwu to bring the packaged dim sum, "This is newly made in the kitchen this morning, it tastes good, you can try it." ”
Ning Shuya nodded: "Okay, it just so happens that my appetite has increased a lot these days, and I always want to eat, and my mouth can't be idle." ”
She quickly tasted a piece, and asked the maid to make tea, and the two chatted while tasting the tea.
Halfway through the conversation, Zhong Xiaoshu remembered his intentions, and hurriedly straightened his face and asked: "Shu Ya, do you know any more reliable women's schools in the capital, my eldest brother's daughter Yingying has also reached the age of enlightenment." ”
It's really right to ask Ning Shuya about this, although she was not favored at home before, she is also an authentic local who grew up in the capital.
"There is a place called Shanshui School, I think about it, it is just across the street from your Wuxiang Building, which is specially opened for wealthy girls, and my sister Shu Yan has studied in that school for a few years, so it should be reliable."
"Good Water Academy. Okay, I remember. ”
Because Ning Shuya's body was getting heavier and heavier, Zhong Xiaoshu was not convenient to disturb her too much, for fear of tiring her, so after chatting for a while, he got up and said goodbye.
When she went back, she specially asked the sedan chair man to take a detour, wanting to go to the Shanshui School to see, if it was really suitable, she would send Sakura over another day.
This Shanshui School is also close to home, unlike Zhiyuan's Academy, Sakura Sakura, a girl, can live at home every day, and the safety factor will be much higher.
She was thinking about these things in her mind, and the sedan chair stopped, and Nianwu said it outside.
She lifted the curtain and got out of the sedan chair, and as soon as she came, she suddenly saw two familiar figures, which made her stunned.
"Nianwu, look, I'm not mistaken, those two people, are they my eldest brother and my late mother?" Zhong Xiaoshu nervously grabbed Nianwu's wrist and asked her for confirmation.
Nian Wu looked in the direction of Zhong Xiaoshu's gaze and sighed, "Madam, you read it right, it is indeed Miss Rong and them!" ”
"Why did they come to the capital, could it be that something happened at home?" Saying this, Zhong Xiaoshu didn't delay any longer, and hurriedly chased after them and stopped them, "Big brother! Late Mother! Why did you come to the capital! ”
Yin Huairen and Rong Wanxia just arrived in the capital today.
Entering this bustling city, the two of them were dizzy and couldn't recognize the direction, and were about to ask someone for directions, when they suddenly heard Zhong Xiaoshu's voice, and turned their faces in surprise.
"Xiao Shu!"
Zhong Xiaoshu saw his family, and he was excited and puzzled: "Why did you suddenly come to the capital, why didn't you write a letter before coming?" I'm going to pick you up myself! ”
Rong Wanxia opened her mouth and was about to say something, but Yin Huairen's eyes were vigilant and lowered his voice: "This is not the place to talk, go back and talk about it." ”
Zhong Xiaoshu chuckled in his heart, and his intuition was that something bad had happened.
Immediately, he didn't delay any longer, and directly took Yin Huairen and Rong Wanxia back to the general's mansion.
At this time, Yin Zhige had not returned home, and it was estimated that he would go directly to the barracks after the next dynasty.
Zhong Xiaoshu couldn't wait for him to come back, and when he got home, he couldn't help but ask again: "Big brother, is there something wrong at home?" ”
Yin Huairen saw the General's Mansion, so he was relieved, "Xiao Shu, I sent you several letters at home, why didn't you reply to any of them, I thought something happened to you." ”
Letter?
Zhong Xiaoshu was a little puzzled at first, but suddenly remembered that she went to Cangzhou with Yin Zhige some time ago, and after she came back, she didn't have time to ask if there was a letter sent from home, which happened to be missed!
