Chapter 815: Cinderella III
Xing's father and Xing's mother left happily with the money, and they had no nostalgia for the eldest daughter who was left behind.
Yang Lu said sympathetically to Xing Rui'an: "No wonder you are cold to them, they don't seem to treat you as their own daughter." ”
Xing Ruian said: "They have other daughters and sons, compared to the sons and daughters who have been with them, I am just a dispensable stranger, and naturally I don't have deep feelings." You don't have to sympathize with me, I'm not a child who longs for the love of my parents. ”
Yang Lu: "Now I'm sure. Let's go, I'll take you to Mr. Xing. ”
Mr. Xing Xing Zhengqi is an old man about 60 years old, his wife, son and daughter-in-law have all died, and only he and his grandson Xing Yingzhe are left to rely on each other. His grandson was sixteen years old, and he went abroad to study some time ago, and there was only one master left in the entire Earl's Palace. Most people thought that Mr. Xing was too lonely and wanted to find someone to accompany him before adopting three girls as granddaughters. But Xing Rui'an's intuitive reason will not be so simple, according to the conclusion she came to after seeing Mr. Xing, this gentleman is a strong-willed person, it is impossible to be lonely, and it is impossible to be so lonely that she needs to find someone to accompany her.
Xing Ruian looked at Mr. Xing, and Mr. Xing also looked at Xing Ruian, and after a while, he said, "You are very good, I am the most satisfied granddaughter." ”
"Thank you, grandpa, for exaggerating." Xing Ruian smiled and said sweetly.
Mr. Xing was more satisfied: "Very good. ”
At this time, two other girls were also brought over.
One of these two girls is called Xing Shuqin, and the other is called Xing Qiaoyan. Both of them answered a little bit more than Xing Ruian, Xing Shuqin is seven years old, and Xing Qiaoyan is six and a half years old. The appearance of the two is more outstanding than Xing Rui'an, Xing Shuqin's facial features are classical, she is a typical beauty, and Xing Qiaoyan's facial features are delicate and bright, like a doll. Xing Ruian is not as good as the two, but his temperament is better than the two.
Mr. Xing was very satisfied with the three children he selected, and said to the three: "In the future, you will be my granddaughter, I will give you the best education and training, give you the best enjoyment of life, and train you to be like a princess." ”
"Wow-" Xing Shuqin and Xing Qiaoyan's eyes lit up, every girl has a princess dream.
Mr. Xing asked his subordinates to take the three girls to their own territory. The Earl's Court is an old-fashioned mansion with a large area and three girls owning a small courtyard each. The room in the courtyard is very dreamy, very in line with the preferences of the little girls, Xing Shuqin and Xing Qiaoyan immediately fell in love with their room, and even Xing Ruian also felt that her girl's heart was provoked.
Since then, the three girls have been studying at the Earl's Court.
During the day, they go to school like ordinary children. It is not an ordinary elementary school, but an aristocratic school, and the students in it are either the descendants of the nobility or the children of rich and noble families. After returning home from school, the three of them had to learn more knowledge under the guidance of the tutor: etiquette of the upper class, skills such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, dancing skills, horseback riding skills, housekeeping skills, foreign languages of various countries, and basic financial knowledge...... The three of them were very busy. And Xing Rui'an came out of these studies, and in the dead of night, he had to continue to practice qi and qi techniques, and learn the more advanced knowledge in the space.
After living in the Earl's Court for two or three months, Xing Ruian figured out the purpose of Mr. Xing's adoption of them. The Xing family made a deal with the royal family, the Xing family would support the royal family, and the royal family would marry the daughter of the Xing family as the crown princess, the future queen. The Xing family did not have daughters, so Mr. Xing selected three girls from the side branch to cultivate. When they grow up, they will be selected, and the best one will be the wife of the crown prince, and the other two will be married to other families for marriage - no wonder she thinks that some of the energy and knowledge she has learned coincides with the curriculum of the bride's school!
Xing Ruian: "......"
Should she run away from Xing's house and go to an orphanage?
In the end, Xing Ruian still dismissed this idea. The power of the Xing family is not small, and Mr. Xing is the richest man in this country, unless he escapes from the country, no matter where Xing Ruian flees, he will be found by Mr. Xing. Even if he goes abroad, there is a high chance that he will be found by the forces of the Xing family. So, the idea doesn't work.
Then stay in the Xing family, you can also learn all kinds of skills and improve yourself in the Xing family. When it's time to get married, he behaves slightly worse than the other two, so he doesn't have to be the crown princess. At that time, even if you marry someone else, you will be able to live well.
That's the same thing about the marriage of the upper class, and it's normal for the husband and wife to play their own games. Xing Ruian doesn't mind her future husband having an illegitimate child, anyway, she doesn't plan to live a married life with her future husband, just be a nominal husband and wife. In this way, it is necessary to use some thought to find a nominal husband, and it is best to find the kind of man who has true love in his heart but cannot marry true love. I believe that this kind of man will tail his true love and guard himself like jade.
made a decision, Xing Ruian stayed in Xing's house and studied various skills seriously, but every time she was tested, her grades were not as good as the other two girls.
"Tell me, what's going on?" Mr. Xing asked Mrs. Rou, the housekeeper who was in charge of all the affairs of the three girls.
Mrs. Rou looked at Xing Rui'an's results, thought for a while, and said, "This kid is hiding his clumsiness. ”
Mr. Xing: "Then are you sure that she is hiding her clumsiness, not her own ability?" ”
Mrs. Rou: "I'm sure. This child is actually a very good learner, and it can be seen from her usual reaction when she studies that she comprehends faster than the other two, comprehends deeper than them, and learns better than the other two. ”
"Is that so, then why do you say she's hiding it?" Mr. Xing asked.
Mrs. Rou: "Perhaps...... Miss Ryan knew what Mr. was going to do. ”
Mr. Xing: "I didn't have anyone to hide, but the fact that she knew my intentions to adopt them so quickly shows that she is better than the other two." Sure enough, as you said, it is hidden. It's just that why is she hiding it? ”
Mrs. Rou guessed: "Maybe it's because you don't want to join the royal family, you don't want to become the crown princess." ”
"Oh, I thought it was every girl's dream to become a crown princess." Mr. Xing said.
"That's an ordinary girl, well, and a more vain aristocratic girl." Mrs. Rou said, "Being the crown princess and queen is too tiring, and she has many responsibilities, and she is always exposed to the eyes of the people of the whole country." A smart and privacy-conscious girl wouldn't want to marry into the royal family. ”
"Hehe, it's really smart." Mr. Xing said, "Such an excellent child is more suitable for marrying into the royal family." ”
