In the intervening years, Chen Changsheng arrived at the Tang Mansion.

The Tang Mansion is worthy of being the home of the wealthy merchants in Yan County, and the mansion alone is a big mansion with three entrances and three exits, and there are housekeepers to greet you after entering the door.

Later, he was taken to the guest room by the maid.

Chen Changsheng felt a little unaccustomed to it.

Tang Mingjing followed all the way, and after arranging everything, he said: "Sir, let's stay here first, if there is anything you are not used to, Mingjing will order your subordinates to arrange it." ”

Chen Changsheng opened his mouth and said: "There's nothing unaccustomed, it's just that Chen doesn't like to be served by someone very much, so let these maids step down." ”

"Sir, you still have to keep one, you have to take care of your daily life and food, if you don't entertain well, my father will have to teach me a lesson again." Tang Mingjing said helplessly.

Chen Changsheng turned his head to look at the maid standing at the door, and said, "This ......"

Tang Mingjing looked at the maid at the door and said, "Hexiang, you go down first, Rue Xiang will stay to take care of Mr." ”

"Yes, young master."

Seeing this, Chen Changsheng didn't say anything more.

Then I heard Tang Mingjing say: "If it's too late today, if there is anything to discuss tomorrow, Mr. can sleep in peace." ”

After Tang Mingjing left, Chen Changsheng went back to the room.

Tang Shijie wanted to keep him in the Tang family for a few more days, so he took him over overnight, Chen Changsheng didn't feel anything bad, he was really curious about the jade pendant, and he was reluctant to leave if he didn't understand.

Rue Xiang stood at the door and asked, "Is the gentleman going to rest?" ”

Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, "I can read books, you can do yours." ”

Rue Xiang pursed her lips after hearing this, and said, "If Mr. has any instructions, please inform Rue Xiang." ”

"Hmm."

Chen Changsheng agreed, and then looked down at the book.

It's half an hour at first glance.

During this time, Rue Xiang has been standing aside and waiting, not saying a word, just staying.

Chen Changsheng glanced at the rest of his eyes and saw that Rue Xiang was still standing there, so he said: "You can sit, or you can go back to rest first, Chen will read a book and see it very late, so no one needs to wait." ”

Rue Xiang shook her head and said, "Mr. has not rested, Rue Xiang will always stay by Mr.'s side." ”

Chen Changsheng sighed and beckoned her, "You go and move a chair to sit down." ”

After hearing this, Rue Xiang hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, sir, Rue Xiang is a subordinate and can't sit." ”

Chen Changsheng smiled helplessly and said, "If I let you sit, you can sit, there are so many rules." ”

Rue Xiang thought that Mr. was a little displeased, so she quickly moved the chair and sat down honestly.

She rested her hands on her lap and sat motionless.

Chen Changsheng asked while reading a book, "How old are you?" ”

"Sixteen." Rue replied.

Chen Changsheng said: "It looks a little small, have you read before?" ”

"I know how to read, but I haven't read a book." Rue said.

"How much do you recognize?"

Rue Xiang thought for a moment and said, "About a thousand words......

After hearing this, Chen Changsheng said: "It's not easy to know so many words. ”

Rue Xiang said: "The maid in the house doesn't know many words, Rue Xiang only knows more than 1,000 words, the young master's companion Yu Qiu Mo knows the most words, and there are no words in the book that she doesn't know." ”

Chen Changsheng thought for a moment and asked, "Want to recognize more words?" ”

Rue Xiang nodded, "Yes." ”

"Tell me why?" Chen Changsheng asked.

Rue Xiang said: "You can live better if you know more words." ”

"Where does this start?"

"The maid who knows a lot of words has the opportunity to enter the room to serve the master or the young master, and the living will be much better, and the monthly money will be more."

Rue Xiang is outspoken, and her eyes are especially clean when she speaks, as if she doesn't think so much at all.

Chen Changsheng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart after hearing this.

Who made this world like this?

I don't know how many more people in this world like Rue Xiang.

Chen Changsheng thought for a moment, handed over the book in his hand, and said, "You read, I'll listen." ”

Rue Xiang was stunned for a moment, then took the book and looked at it.

She pursed her lips and said, "Sir, there are some words in the book that Rue Xiang doesn't recognize." ”

Chen Changsheng said: "Just read it." ”

Rue Xiang was a little flustered for a while, she was afraid that she would make a mistake and displease her husband.

"The predicate of the Mandate of Heaven is sexuality, the recklessness is the Tao, the cultivation of the Tao is the teaching, and the Tao is also necessary, not necessary, must be ......"

Rue Xiang's face was embarrassed, and she didn't recognize the next word.

Chen Changsheng opened his mouth and said, "You don't have to leave for a while. ”

"Don't leave it."

Rue Xiang opened his mouth and said: "Mr. Rue Xiang will mispronounce it, otherwise it will still be ......"

"Keep reading." Chen Changsheng said.

Rue Xiang lowered her head, she gritted her teeth and picked up the book again and began to read.

"Don't see it, don't show it, so the gentleman is really unique."

"A gentleman is cautious."

"Therefore, the gentleman is cautious."

The more she read it, the more timid she became, and after making a few mistakes in a row, her reading voice became smaller and smaller.

I didn't dare to read it any longer.

Chen Changsheng asked, "Why don't you read it?" ”

"Rue ......"

Rue Xiang spoke, her eyes were a little ruddy, but she didn't cry, she was just a little scared.

"Sir, punish me." Rue said.

Chen Changsheng said: "How can you know if you don't see it? ”

Rue Xiang was stunned for a moment.

Then I heard the gentleman say: "Start again from the beginning, and if you miss something wrong, I will punish you." ”

Rue lowered her head, picked up the book, and began to read it from the beginning.

She didn't miss the place before.

It's just that there are a few more other mistakes, and Chen Changsheng corrects her word by word.

I read it for nearly half an hour.

There are nearly more than 100 mistakes, but every time she finishes reading an article, Mr. will ask her to read it again, but fortunately, she is smart, and she will not be wrong in the same place for the second time, and Mr. did not scold her.

It's getting late.

"Sincerity is the beginning of things, and there is nothing if there is no sincerity. It is the ...... of the gentleman's sincerity."

Chen Changsheng said: "Let's read it here." ”

Rue Xiang put away the book and asked, "Is the gentleman going to rest?" ”

Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "You go back and continue to read tomorrow." ”

Rue agreed, and then got up and walked to her husband's side.

"Rue Xiang waits for Mr. to change his clothes."

"Huh?"

Chen Changsheng paused, hid to the side, and said: "You don't need to wait for a change of clothes, Chen doesn't have this habit, you go down to rest first, and besides, remember to bring the door shut." ”

Rue Xiang paused slightly, and then her expression suddenly became lonely, but she quickly returned to normal.

“…… Rue got it. ”

With that, she turned and walked out of the room.

She carefully closed the door and glanced back.

Rue Xiang took a deep breath and raised her head to look at the bright moon hanging high in the sky.

She thought to herself......

Mr. probably doesn't like her.

Come to think of it, she's just an ordinary maid.

Rue reached out and wiped away a handful of tears, glanced back at the room and retreated.
