Early the next morning, Xiao Man recovered his vitality and took Lu Wangshu to the Wei Mansion.

Wei Xiuyuan, who was about to go out, happened to bump into Xiao Man with a child, he squatted down and said hello to Lu Wangshu, then scratched the other party's chin, and said with a smile: "Wangshu, what are you doing at my house so early?" ”

He thought that Lu Wangshu would answer a straightforward and boring answer as before, but Lu Wangshu replied with the same hooked smile, "Uncle Wei, let's come to your house to play." ”

"Huh?" Wei Xiuyuan was a little surprised by the other party's answer, and couldn't help but continue to ask, "What are you doing at my house?" ”

Lu Wangshu didn't respond, but raised his head to look at Su Xiaoman, his eyes purring, obviously asking the other party to help him answer.

Seeing this, Xiao Man covered his lips and chuckled, and said, "Brother Wei, I heard Lu Li say that a few days ago, Old Man Xia invited a teacher for Zijin, and he lived in this Wei Mansion, right?" ”

"Oh." Wei Xiuyuan got up, dragged out his tone and said with a smile: "I still wonder why this little Wangshu is suddenly so polite, it turns out that he wants to come to class." Don't worry, I've already mentioned it to my husband, but my husband is a person who pays attention to etiquette, and if you want to be a student of your husband, you have to pass his exams. ”

After speaking, he leaned over to look at Lu Wangshu, stretched out his hand and scraped the tip of the other party's nose with a smile, and said with a smile: "Mr. has gotten up, come in!" Don't be late. ”

"Thank you, Brother Wei, then we'll go in first."

The three of them said goodbye, and the subordinates of the Wei Mansion took Xiaoman and Wangshu to the main hall to wait for Xia Wanrou, and after she came out, they led the guests to the other courtyard where Mr. taught.

Because this gentleman was invited by Old Man Xia, Wei Xiuyuan's family naturally did not dare to slack off, and specially vacated a separate courtyard on the side of the backyard. This courtyard is clean and elegant, the environment is good, and there is a separate entrance and exit gate, which is also more convenient to move and is not bound by the Wei Mansion.

When she arrived at the gate of this courtyard, Xia Wanrou specially stopped, turned around and said a few words, and then led everyone in.

Wei Zijin was called to wake up early for morning class, so when everyone entered the courtyard, they happened to be able to see Wei Zijin sitting on the bench from the window, listening carefully to the lecture and nodding, looking many times more well-behaved than before.

Xiao Man was a little surprised, it seems that this gentleman is indeed powerful, and he can actually subdue Wei Zijin.

"Knock knock—"

The servant came up and knocked on the door, and when he entered, he explained his intention to the scholar who was with him, and only after obtaining his permission did they enter the room.

is different from the image of the gentleman expected by Xiaoman, the gentleman in front of him is about thirty years old, dressed in a plain robe, and his hair is pulled up with an unadorned jasper hairpin, looking like a fairy wind and bones. However, although the other party looks extremely kind, he naturally has a sense of majesty, which makes people dare not get too close.

But no matter what, it is still very different from the image of the stern and old-fashioned old master in Xiaoman's imagination.

However, now is not a good time to take a look at each other. Xiaoman took Lu Wangshu forward, saluted very respectfully, explained his intention, and then asked Lu Wangshu to introduce himself to Mr.

Fortunately, Lu Wangshu has always been calm and steady, and he has not been cowardly in the face of this stranger he has never seen. He bowed to the other party very solemnly, and immediately introduced himself, and by the way, he also said basically the books he had read recently and his thoughts on books, etc.

All the people present, not only Xia Wanrou and others, but even Xiaoman were a little surprised, surprised that this child had grown up so much unconsciously, and surprised that he was far better than he imagined.

"Yes, a good seedling." Mr. really showed a little smile, he reached out and rubbed the top of Lu Wangshu's head, his eyes were a little lovely, and he raised his eyes to look at Xiao Man, "I accepted this child, and I will definitely discipline it well in the future, Mrs. Wanwang rest assured." ”

"Thank you, sir." Xiaoman was both happy and proud, she was too busy to bow and salute, and the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't be hidden.

Wei Zijin was very excited when he saw Lu Wangshu, and kept making all kinds of funny expressions towards Lu Wangshu, and waved his hand at Lu Wangshu when Mr. was not paying attention, signaling the other party to sit next to him, but all this was deliberately ignored by Lu Wangshu, obviously he saw it, but he just didn't respond.

The other party did not respond, Wei Zijin was naturally angry and a little lonely, she bit her lip and sat on the small bench and muttered a few words. Then he sighed matter-of-factly, pouted and lowered his shoulders, looked up at the beams, let his hair hang down, and looked at the top of his head in a daze.

What is the difference between one more person and one less? This person doesn't like to talk, he obviously sees it but doesn't care about himself, so it's better not to come! Boring! Wei Zijin thought silently in his heart.

Just thinking about it, there was suddenly a figure around him. Due to the conditioned reflex, Wei Zijin, who had been taught several times in the past few days to sit in a sitting position, hurriedly straightened his body and looked to the side.

I saw Lu Wangshu, who was dressed in white, standing to the side expressionlessly, and when he saw her turn sideways, he said, "Move to the side, I want to sit here." ”

"Huh?" Wei Zijin was stunned for a moment, then immediately overjoyed, hurriedly packed up the things on the table, and moved happily to the left and right. After doing this series of dodong, she also leaned down and wiped the bench she had made before with her sleeve, and then she smiled and raised her little face, "Brother Wangshu, you sit!" ”

Lu Wangshu coughed lightly, didn't speak, and sat down straight.

After all, it was introduced by Mr. Xia, and Xiaoman was also very relieved, so after everything was done, he didn't dare to disturb Mr. Xia's teaching. Instead, he returned to the main hall of the inner court, ready to continue discussing other matters.

After walking out of the courtyard, Xiao Man sighed: "This gentleman can be appreciated by Master Xia at a young age, it seems that it is not simple. ”

"He had participated in the imperial examination before and won the top spot, but instead of becoming an official, he went to open a private school, but had to close it because of poor management. My father felt that it was a pity, so he helped him from time to time, and now he saw that Zijin was too stubborn, so he recommended him. Xia Wanrou introduced.

"Although he is young, his academic attainments are not inferior to my father's, but because he insists on not being an official, he can only do something else. Fortunately, he still has the title of the top of the imperial examination, and his life is not too rough. ”

After listening to Xia Wanrou's words, Xiao Man nodded thoughtfully, thinking: Aren't these gentlemen much more powerful than the gentlemen in ordinary private schools! To be appreciated by Master Xia at this age will definitely be unacceptable in the future.

As they spoke, the two of them also arrived at the door of the main hall.

After sitting down, the next person served tea, and the two talked about some trivial things in the family, and laughed from time to time, which was also interesting.

Xia Wanrou didn't ask Wang Youhe about it again from beginning to end, and after laughing with Xiaoman, she talked about the store, "Seeing that it is the end of the year again, various stores have also begun to prepare new styles and patterns, Xiaoman, do you have any preparations or proposals, so that they can refer to it." ”

"You know, I've been busy with the game these days, and I don't care about that." Speaking of these, Xiaoman felt a little guilty, "Until the end of the competition next year, I'm afraid the business of the store will have to trouble you a lot, Sister Wanrou." ”

"Don't worry, Qin Chun and Lao Zhou are doing very well, I don't have much effort, but it's you, how are the preparations for the competition?" Xia Wanrou asked.

Speaking of the competition, Xiaoman is actually still a little less confident, after all, she has no experience in this area, for fear that there will be too few people to come, or there will be no embroidery girl with exquisite embroidery to support the scene, not to mention, her own embroidery has also regressed a lot, in case someone doubts it......

Looking at Xiao Man's slightly worried eyes, Xia Wanrou asked, "Xiao Man, what's wrong?" ”

"No, it's fine." Xiao Man raised his head and smiled at the other party, "Actually, the preparations are almost the same, but there are many places where I still have to consult Master Jiang, so I don't know exactly how to do this game in the end." ”

"Don't worry, as long as it's something you do, there's absolutely nothing you can't do, isn't it?" Regarding this aspect, Xia Wanrou has a lot of confidence in Xiaoman.

She said: "Think about the time when you first came to Beijing, when you went to participate in the competition and won the top spot, and the opening of the store was smooth and successful, Xiaoman, I believe that as long as you work hard, things can definitely be very successful and successful." ”

Xia Wanrou's encouragement gave Xiao Man a lot of confidence, she got up and took a deep breath, "Okay! I will definitely work hard and definitely live up to your trust in me! ”

"That's what it looks like." Xia Wanrou also got up, stepped forward and said with a smile, her eyebrows full of appreciation.

The two have known each other for several years, seeing Xiao Man change from a timid country girl to what she is today, Xia Wanrou is very proud and proud in her heart, she thinks: Lu Li did not see the wrong person, Xiao Man did not live up to Lu Li's trust, she has the momentum as a housewife, and also has the talent as a store manager.

As for herself, although she is also the shopkeeper of Manrou Garment Workshop on the surface, Xia Wanrou thinks that she is far inferior to Xiaoman, after all, these things she makes can be completed by anyone else.

But this is just Xia Wanrou's overly humble idea, after all, the two of them are indispensable for Manrou Garment Workshop to get to this point.

Seeing that Mr.'s morning class was about to end, Xia Wanrou said again: "Mr. doesn't have the habit of having evening classes, so the lunch class will be early, don't be late at that time, these gentlemen are very strict in these things, don't make mistakes in these trivial things." ”

Xiao Man hurriedly asked, "When is the right time for Wangshu?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Wangshu's voice calling himself came from the door, Xiaoman looked back, but saw Wangshu walking in alone without hurrying and dissatisfied, until he walked in front of Xiaoman, he frowned slightly and said, "Mother, Mr. said that I don't have to come in the future." ”
