[Chapter 4, Volume 4]

470 Chapter 131: The Little Girls (I)

Wei Changying said that Cao Yiren never agreed to change her words, and it was not good for her to be the mother-in-law of others to discipline her immediately, so she said after a moment of silence: "According to what you say, you don't want to suffer." Just have you thought about it? What you think is not a loss, but in fact you are suffering a big loss. ”

Cao Yiren looked at her suspiciously.

"I said, if you call your grandfather like this, when others hear it, they will probably think that you are unfilial. Anyway, it's also your elders, and it's all right for the younger generations to let the elders be. If you don't give in an inch like this, when the time comes, everyone will say that you are not good, your reputation is bad, and you will be excluded everywhere, can you not suffer losses and be wronged? Wei Changying took a sip of tea and said slowly.

Cao Yiren was quite aggrieved: "Why! ”

"Just because he is your grandfather, without him there would be no mother, let alone you. You won't even let him in this little verbal dispute, who can not think that you are bad? Wei Changying touched her little head and said, "On the other hand, if you let him in this matter, others will have to give in for you when they see it!" At that time, it may not be the fulfillment of your name. ”

"Why do you need others to give me grievances?" Cao Yiren raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course, the grievances I suffered myself have to find the field by myself!" ”

Wei Changying laughed when she heard this, and secretly thought: "This kid's thoughts are similar to those when I was a child, I practiced martial arts hard at that time, but I also thought that after leaving the cabinet, if my husband dares to wronged me, I will personally teach him a hard lesson!" Don't just cry and go back to your parents' house to complain! ”

Thinking of when she was young, her disgust for Cao Yiren's stubbornness faded a little, and she smiled and said, "What's wrong with others holding up for you?" Save yourself a lot of effort! Besides, you must be able to find any grievances by yourself? ”

Cao Yiren bit his lip and was silent.

Wei Changying said: "You are also eight years old, even if you are late in enlightenment, but you can understand the truth." This time, I accepted you as a righteous daughter, in the final analysis, because your parents hoped to be able to give you a good future in this way, but they paved the way for you, but you did not go well, not only failed them, but also harmed yourself. I see you're a smart kid, it's impossible not to understand this, why are you so stubborn? ”

After such persuasion, Cao Yiren reluctantly agreed not to call Ji Gu so in the future.

Wei Changying reminded her a few more words of etiquette and rules, and when she saw that the hour was not early, she said, "You already knew it before you came today, right?" From now on, you will live in this Ming Pei Hall. ”

Cao Yiren nodded: "Uncle told me." ”

"Your handmaidens are with you." The handmaiden Wei Changying said was actually the previous meeting when Ji Gu proposed to let Cao Yiren be a handmaid or playmate for Shen Shuyan, Wei Changying was unwilling to let Cao Yiren be with Shen Shuyan, so he used Cao Yiren's lack of playmates as an excuse to find a step to send Ji Gu down, and then sent a batch of small maids to Ji Yuan for two of the pickouts.

Considering that these two little maids were not very familiar with Ming Peitang, Wei Changying sent a few servants to serve Cao Yiren.

Called everyone to the front and let Cao Yiren recognize her, and after beating, Wei Chang Yingfang personally sent her to the prepared courtyard.

This courtyard is not far from the courtyard where Wei Changying lives, but it is not far from the place where Shen Zangzhu and his two nieces live.

Because Wei Changying said before that the arrangement was a little farther, but when he really arranged it, he thought that Ming Peitang was basically empty now. Since Cao Yiren was taken over to live, but it was arranged far away, it was definitely not happy to call Ji to get sick. What's more, the little girl who is only eight years old lives in an unfamiliar place, and she has to be obviously separated, which is really pitiful.

So Wei Changying thought about it for a while and dialed the nearby yard.

This small courtyard is only two entrances and two entrances, but it is enough for a few people to live in Cao Yi. Wei Changying asked people to clean up a lot, planted a lot of flowers and plants that the little girl's family liked, and also set up a swing frame in the yard, hanging parrots under the corridor, and raising colorful koi fish in a tank outside the column.

There are also a lot of toys in the house, such as glass horses and nine rings.

Ji Gu, Ji Chunmian, and Ji Quzhi are not good at gently pampering their juniors, even if they love Cao Yiren, they are definitely not as thoughtful as the servants who have served people for generations in Ming Peitang. Cao Yiren looked at the past and showed a clear look of joy. When Wei Changying led her into the courtyard after watching the two, and when she finished telling her to leave, she shouted to her stepmother and shouted a lot of affection.

Early the next morning, Cao Yiren was called up by the maid, put on a new dress, wore neat jewelry, and led him to the back hall to greet Wei Changying.

The greeting on this day is still to recognize people.

Although it is said that when I received the righteous girl yesterday, I saw everything I should have seen, but yesterday I had a lot of mouths, and I am afraid that the children did not remember it. So on this day, Wei Changying invited Shen Zangzhu and her two nieces to meet again, and also told them to live in harmony.

Cao Yiren was called early because of the maid, and she was the only one, so she was also early. Wei Changying told her a few words about the rules of the family, and Shen Zangzhu led the two nieces in. Cao Yiren followed the instructions of Wei Chang Yingcai, and got up to greet her.

Shen Zangzhu said with a smile: "Hurry up, it's all your own family, you don't have to be so polite." ”

After inviting Shen Zangzhu, he and Shen Shuyan greeted each other - the two little girls were the same age, and Shen Shuyan was a month older than Cao Ya, so she was a sister. Therefore, Cao Yiren saluted first, and Shen Shuyan returned the salute. Seeing that the two of them said politely in the hall, each of them returned to everyone, Wei Changying and Shen Zangzhu were secretly relieved, and told Shen Shuxi, who was still young: "Go and give you a gift to Sister Cao." ”

When he decided to accept Cao Yiren as a righteous daughter and take her to Mingpeitang to teach, Wei Changying was worried that his jealous niece Shen Shuyan would not make any trouble, so he began to coax Shen Shuyan several days in advance. At that time, Shen Shuyan heard that there was going to be an extra Sister Cao to live in Mingpeitang, and that her aunt would teach herself, so she asked, "Is this Sister Cao as good-looking as me?" ”

Shen Zangzhu and Wei Changying said together: "Your sister Cao is also beautiful and lovely, but her background is not as good as yours, and her temperament is definitely inferior to you." Even in terms of appearance, a good-looking little girl like you is rare. ”

Shen Shuyan asked again: "Is this Sister Cao as smart as me?" ”

This time, both the aunt and the aunt laughed: "You are a wild vegetable with your qualifications, and you can grab a handful of them on the side of the road." Our family doesn't know how much virtue it has accumulated to get such a little prodigy as you, I'm afraid I won't be able to meet a second one in my life. ”

So Shen Shuyan was satisfied: "Since this is the case, then she can come to live at home, but don't keep dangling in front of me, I don't like this kind of stupid and good-looking person!" ”

Shen Zangzhu and Wei Changying heard her say this, although they immediately corrected her that Cao Yi was not very stupid and was a good-looking little girl, and said that this Sister Cao always called her sister when she came, how could she say that about her sister? But Shen Shuyan is used to his beauty and talent, and he has always been dustless, and he still looks down on Cao Yiren very much. Wei Changying was really worried that Cao Yiren would not be able to get off the stage as soon as she saw her face.

Fortunately, I don't know if it was because I listened to the advice of the elders that it worked, or if Shen Shuyan didn't care about Cao Yiren. Although the two little girls of the same age seemed a little cold and faintly hostile when they met, there was no contradiction. Listen to a few words of instruction from Wei Changying and Shen Zangzhu, assign homework, and take it down separately.

Next, Cao Yiren went to Wei Changying every day to learn the rules and etiquette of the scholars, and also learned literacy. However, although he is in front of Wei Changying every day, he is not taught by Wei Changying himself every time.

For example, on this day, the people below came over with the account book to report, saying that they found that someone had filled their pockets, and Wei Changying led the He family, who was the best at this item, to reconcile the accounts. Cao Yiren was handed over to Zhu Yi and taken to the small room next to the account room to learn to read and write.

Wei Changying and the He family have been busy for two days, and they also handed over Cao Yiren to Zhu Yi for two days before they finished disposing of the matter.

The little maid Shi Yu ran back and said cautiously: "Miss Sisun is over there, what is Miss Cao!" ”

"When did Yan'er come over?" Wei Changying was stunned for a moment and said, "What is she teaching the Yiren?" ”

Shi Yu said: "The maid doesn't understand much, it seems to be talking poetry." ”

Poetry is Shen Shuyan's forte, but Cao Yiren's foundation is weak, and now he is still in the stage of recognizing words and breaking sentences, and Wei Changying has not yet taught poetry to the point of being right. At this moment, after listening to Shi Yu's words, Wei Changying, who knew her niece well, suddenly had a headache, and sure enough, she walked next door in three steps and two steps, and heard Shen Shuyan shouting angrily: "You don't know the allusion of 'red deer alien', you don't know the allusion of 'Ran Di reading', you don't know the allusion of 'smelling the chicken and dancing' - you don't even understand the meaning of 'Lan Gui Qifang'!" You still dare to read my poems! You say what you see! ”

Well, don't ask, you know what happened. It must have been Shen Shuyan's new work that he wrote and wanted to show his aunt, but after he came, he heard that his aunt was busy with things, so he went to wait next door. happened to see Cao Yiren here, I thought it was with her, and Cao Yiren asked to see it after hearing about it - it's also that Cao Yiren doesn't know the inside and the inside, and he has to give an evaluation when he sees this new work. And Cao Yiren hasn't recognized a few words now, what can she evaluate?

Shen Shuyan is already picky, and she can't fool her when she says good things, but she doesn't find that Cao Yiren is not a person who can judge at all, and she immediately has a seizure?

Wei Changying first heard Shi Yu say that Shen Shuyan felt something was wrong when she was teaching Cao Yiren, but her niece looked down on Cao Yiren very much, how could she put down her shelf and teach her? What's more, Shen Shuyan now has a student of Shen Shuxi.

She sighed and was about to walk in to relieve Cao Yiren. But I heard Cao Yiren also speak crisply, and said casually: "I see that your handwriting is good." ”

"You know how good the words are?!" Shen Shuyan said angrily, "This is your depiction on the case, right?" It's only at such an age that I started to learn to paint red! Worthy to speak my word, too! My fifth sister is only four years old now, and she writes better than you! ”

"Hey, your fifth sister's writing is better than mine, do you mean that your writing is not as good as mine?" Cao Yiren was actually also articulate, and he didn't give Shen Shuyan a chance to argue, so he immediately said, "Otherwise, why do you compare your fifth sister to yourself?" I thought you didn't know any etiquette, and you wouldn't say a word of politeness. So you're turning around and praising me, thank you so much. ”

Shen Shuyan was stunned for a moment, obviously this fourth miss has always been angry, everyone held her, she had never met Cao Yiren so sneering, it took a few breaths to wake up, and said angrily: "Nonsense!" My words are also comparable to you? You don't know how many country girls you haven't known until now, it's really shameless, and you can say such shameless words! ”

Cao Yiren was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "I am a little girl in the countryside, you are a famous little girl, everyone is a little girl, what are you doing so fiercely?" ”

"Phew, you're the little girl!" Shen Shuyan scolded, "I am Miss Ming Peitang's fourth grandson, how can I be the same as you?" ”

"I said earlier that I shouldn't come here, but my uncle has to ask me to come!" Listening to the bang, I don't know if Cao Yiren fell or kicked something, it seemed that a little maid screamed, Cao Yiren suddenly turned his face, and sneered, "It's annoying to see a nine-span kid like you!" I don't have any use for myself, I will rely on reincarnation to cast well, and show off my might! If you leave your home and shelter, what are you? Don't think I'm scared of you because I'm here! My uncle said that I live here because of your third aunt's favor, and if you dare to bully me, it will be to slap your third aunt in the face! When I go back, my uncle is going to find your third aunt's theory - co-authored her to take the initiative to recognize me as a righteous daughter, just to find someone to vent your anger?! I really can't do it, I just don't want to stay! Amazing to go back to my uncle! If you have the ability, don't get sick for the rest of your life, and don't ask my uncle for three relatives and four relatives! ”

Shen Shuyan was furious: "You are the waste!" I wrote it well, didn't I write it myself? Uncle uncle, you will rely on your uncle, and you will have the face to say that I am relying on the family-and, what a nine-cross child! You don't even know those two words! Who do you say is useless! You said! ”

Cao Yiren sneered and said, "It's great to recognize two words? When the Di people come, will they get off the horse and compare them with you one by one? It's Xiliang's daughter, don't talk nonsense! Let's go out and find a secluded place! Don't say that I bullied you, I let you have one hand, and you will still cry! ”

Shen Shuyan almost jumped up and shouted, "Just go, I'm afraid of you?!" ”

Overhearing this, Wei Changying couldn't go on, so he hurriedly walked in and shouted, "What are you arguing about!" ”
