The maid also said it, it can be seen that Zheng Wanxia and her grandmother have a very good relationship, but she didn't expect that a topic she casually diverged actually mentioned Zheng Wanying's sadness, Xu Shu suddenly became embarrassed, and secretly thought that she was better not to speak, to be honest, she is really not good at greeting people, revealing her shortcomings is what she is good at!

Fortunately, Mrs. Zheng Si soon rescued her, and Mrs. Zheng Si finished talking to Chen, and estimated that Xu Shu had almost said it here, so she called Xu Shu back.

On the way, Mrs. Zheng Si explained the reason to Xu Shu, "This spring, Sister Ying's mother had a serious illness, and this illness is strange!" ”

"What's that weird method?"

Mrs. Zheng Si said in a low voice, "At first, I thought it was smallpox!" ”

Smallpox! Xu Shu was taken aback, it was really a serious illness, people with smallpox, there is almost no possibility of survival, even if they are lucky enough to recover, they will leave pitted spots on their faces, but just now they saw that although Chen's face was sallow, it was also smooth and clean, and there were no traces, and Mrs. Zheng Si also said that she thought it was smallpox at first, but it seems that it should not actually be......

"Yes! At first, Sister Ying's mother had a high fever, fatigue, headache, soreness, and even convulsions, all of which were exactly the same as when smallpox occurred! In this peaceful and prosperous world, there was smallpox, no one dared to go out, even the imperial doctor did not let him invite, the old lady felt that it was a bad omen that she was infected with the epidemic for no reason, and refused to lend a hand...... She was able to survive because of her great fortune! Mrs. Zheng sighed, her eyes full of emotion.

"What is the illness of the eldest lady?"

Mrs. Zheng Si shook her head, "I don't know, even she doesn't know about herself, she suddenly got better, and Xifu began to prepare for her afterlife!" ”

"Your relationship with the eldest lady seems to be very good!" As far as Xu Shu can see, he feels that Mrs. Zheng Si's relationship with the Chen family is far better than that with Mrs. Zheng San.

"Sort of! Like her, I am thousands of miles away from home, married to the capital, sympathy for the same disease, naturally closer than with others, and her temperament is really soft, and she is more comfortable getting along, although the two provinces are separated, there are occasional contacts! ”

Mrs. Zheng Si deliberately emphasized the "really" softness, which shows that Mrs. Zheng Si also knows Mrs. Zheng San's true temperament, even if she looks simple and idle like Mrs. Zheng Si on the surface, her heart is as transparent as a mirror.

"What do you think of Sister Ying?" Mrs. Zheng asked.

Xu Shu replied, "She has the same temperament as her mother, and she is also extremely supple!" ”

Mrs. Zheng Si said with a smile, "The population of Xifu is simple, and there is less intrigue, that child's personality is indeed simpler than ours, I think that if you are bored in the future, you can also go to play with her!" ”

"I'm not bored!"

The smile on Mrs. Zhengsi's face froze, and she sighed in her heart, but she was not reluctant, "It's good if you don't feel bored!" I'm afraid of smothering you, too! ”

"With my mother by my side, I don't feel bored!" Xu Shu coquettishly hugged Mrs. Zheng's arm.

Mrs. Zheng Si glanced at Xu Shu helplessly, and suddenly remembered something, "While your sixth and seventh brothers are at home now, let them teach you to read, I know that although you used to be literate and hyphenated, it always doesn't hurt to read more, so as not to let you be bored in the house all day!" ”

"Didn't my mother praise me for my good handwriting last time?"

"That's another story!" Mrs. Zheng Si has made up her mind, "From tomorrow, I will let your sixth brother and seventh brother take turns to teach you, and they can also take this opportunity to warm up the book, so it is cheaper to kill two birds with one stone!" ”

Xu Shu saw that it was useless to be coquettish, so she honestly endured it, thinking about the preoccupied appearance of Young Master Zheng Liu, who was obsessed by Cai Zhenzhen, she had no way out and refused to sue, she would not say it when she learned or not, as for Young Master Zheng Qi, he was playful, it would be good not to stab Lou Zi with himself, and he ...... Forget it!

Sure enough, the next day, Young Master Zheng Liu came to the Begonia Pavilion with a book.

Yinzhi greeted him all the way from the gate of the courtyard to the house, and took the initiative to make the tea that Young Master Zheng Liu's favorite drank without waiting for instructions, and Xu Shu only thought that he didn't see Yinzhi's diligence, and glanced at the book that Young Master Zheng Liu casually rested on the desk, and his eyes were about to pop out of his sockets.

Young Master Zheng Liu actually brought a thousand-character text over!

The thousand-character text is a child's enlightened book, and Young Master Zheng Liu actually brought such a book, I don't know if he is really pedantic enough to think that teaching people to read should start from the most basic teaching, or take this opportunity to satirize Xu Shu's lack of ink on his chest?

Compared with Young Master Zheng Qi's self-cooking, Young Master Zheng Liu is much more restrained, and after drinking tea and moistening his throat, he opened his mouth with a straight look, "Mother ordered me to teach you...... Nine sisters read and read! One hour a day, no slack! ”

"There's Sixth Brother Lao!" Xu Shuyou put out the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone in a decent manner, waiting to listen to the teachings of Young Master Zheng Liu.

Xu Shu was so formal, Young Master Zheng Liu was about to speak, when he suddenly saw a half-new and not old complete collection of general history in Xu Shu's hand, but the thousand-character text in his hand suddenly couldn't hold it, and coughed uncomfortably, "What books are the ninth sisters reading now?" ”

Sure enough, I saw Xu Shu pointing to the complete collection of general history on the side, "I've read a little half!" ”

Young Master Zheng Liu pinched the thousand-character text in his hand and felt that his hands were hot, and after a long time, he finally took it out, "This is the first book my father gave me when I was enlightened, and today I will give it to the ninth sister!" ”

"Thank you, Brother Six!" Xu Shu took it with a smile.

The book was sent out, Young Master Zheng Liu took a long breath, the whole person relaxed, his expression became natural, and he picked up half of the complete works of general history that Xu Shu had read, and explained it like a river.

Young Master Zheng Liu's book is very good, and this kind of thing is naturally difficult for him, an hour passed quickly, and Young Master Zheng Liu didn't stay long, and he took the initiative to leave when he got to a point.

Xu Shu glanced at Yinzhi, who had been staring at Young Master Zheng Liu, who had been staring at him through the door curtain, and said loudly, "Yinzhi, send the sixth brother back for me, and when you come back, go to the plum garden to fold a few plum blossoms and come back to insert a bottle!" ”

The plum garden is a long distance away from the Begonia Pavilion, which means that Yinzhi sent the sixth young master Zheng a long way, and Yinzhi happily agreed, "Sixth young master, please!" ”

Yuzhu watched Yinzhi thoughtfully put on the cloak for Young Master Zheng Liu, carefully smoothing every fold on the placket, not even letting go of a speck of dust on his boots, Yinzhi didn't care so carefully about Xu Shu......

The words that Xu Shu said to her that day still echoed in Yuzhu's mind, and being a concubine for people like them was definitely not the best way out. No, for all women, being a concubine is the next choice, Miss Zheng Ba prides herself on her deep affection, only seeking affection, not fame, but in this world, fame is much more important than affection.

Yinzhi's mind is only afraid that it will be a mistake after all.
