Chapter 17: It's too slow

Jiaoyue returned home with a heavy heart, and after walking all the way, she couldn't understand why Ye Ke had feelings for her. She thought that the person Ye Ke liked was her good friend Huilan, wouldn't everyone be happy.

And although she didn't say Huilan's name in front of Ye Ke in the end, Ye Ke must have understood who she was going for, otherwise she wouldn't have been stunned after a moment of sudden enlightenment at the last moment.

Because when she got home, it was already late, and as soon as Jiaoyue walked into the house, Wang's mother anxiously told her that her father had been waiting for her for a long time and had a fire.

She knew that she had been out for a longer time today, and she happened to have something to look for her father, so she nodded and went to the study to find her father.

Their family now lives in a fashionable small western-style building, which was given to them by the Overseers at the beginning of the year.

At that time, her father had mortgaged all the family houses in his hometown for business losses, so he had to cheekily go to the city to join the Overseers, and when the Overseers heard about it, they gave the small western-style house to her father without saying a word.

Kyaukyue was actually completely unaware at the time, and if she knew, she would definitely stop her father.

But the father was bewitched by the mother and daughter in the family, and actually did such a thing, but it was a foregone conclusion, so she always felt very ashamed of it, and her stepmother and stepsister took it calmly and took it for granted.

Since coming here, the Overseer has also found a famous gentleman in Jinling City for her, and taught her two hours a day, but then the gentleman was ill, so he let his protégé Ye Ke teach her for him, and it was at that time that she knew Ye Ke.

But Ye Ke only taught her for two months, Hui Lan was the Ye Ke she met when she came to play with her at that time, she couldn't remember when Hui Lan saw Ye Ke, but she remembered that Hui Lan loved to come to her to play with later, especially when Mr. Ye Ke was still there.

However, because the old gentleman recovered, Ye Ke did not come to teach him anymore.

Later, due to the government's promulgation of the new school system, boys and girls in the country can go to the same school, and they no longer have to worry about the previous worldliness, so Hui Lan decisively went to the school where Mr. Ye Ke taught.

This is what she remembers, and she has never thought too much about it, but today she realizes that she is too slow.

Jiaoyue entered the study, saying that it was a study, but in fact, it was just a room originally set up in this western-style building to make a study, and the bookcases in it were all the same, but the few books were pitiful, and the calligraphy and paintings were just decorations.

He was holding an abacus with the bookkeeper to calculate some accounts, and it could be seen that his father's face was not good-looking, and he suddenly remembered that it was the end of the month again, presumably not much profit in this month.

"Bright Moon, you're back!" As soon as the security guard saw her, he immediately put down the abacus and asked with concern: "Where have you been, why are you silent?" ”

"Dad, I'm going out to do something. What happened to the accounts? Is business not improving again? Kyaukyue frowned slightly, her father had taken five thousand taels of silver from the Overseers last month for business to prop up the portal, which made her angry and helpless to learn later.
