Chapter 67: Three Tasks
What Zhou Wenyong, who is full of confidence in Yu Zizhen, doesn't know is that Yu Zizhen didn't plan to be in the limelight.
On the way out of the palace with her classmates, she had already figured out how to set up a character for herself in the future and how to act well in this part of the capital.
On the surface, she is the prince of Zhenbei, if she is too outstanding, I am afraid that many people in this capital will have to sleep at night. But her personality is dictated, and she can't take the route of being timid, cowardly, and assertive, or honestly being bullied.
So, what does she have to do to not let herself live aggrieved, and at the same time not let herself become a thorn in the side of others who can't get rid of it?
In between, she needed a balance.
Thinking about these things, Yu Zizhen got into the carriage and returned to the Zhenbei Mansion with Yaoguang.
According to Zhou Wenyong, they not only had to follow Zhou Wenyong to read and write and practice calligraphy in the palace, but also to learn etiquette, music theory and arithmetic from other gentlemen.
It is worth mentioning that if it weren't for the great prince's poor behavior, they should actually learn archery and horseback riding.
There are so many things to learn, and they have to take a break every ten days, which also leads to the fact that Yu Zizhen can't leave the palace at noon every day and go back to the house to do his own thing.
According to the class schedule given to her by Zhou Wenyong, she has to spare six afternoons every ten days to study etiquette, music theory and arithmetic.
That is, she had lunch at the palace six out of ten days.
emmm......
Yu Zizhen touched her chin, would she eat the food that others had added? With her limited experience from novels and TV series, Gong Dou or something, isn't that just a secret trick? It's not in her guard.
Thinking so, Yu Zizhen immediately gave his thoughts to the little milk sound system with his mind, "It seems that I have to study Chinese medicine carefully." ”
The little milk voice system replied one by one, "Then does the host need to exchange for related books?" ”
Yu Zizhen stretched, "Don't use it yet, wait until I finish reading the existing medical books and classics of this dynasty." But, Tongzi, is there anything else you can do to keep me from being poisoned before I become a miracle doctor? ”
When the system heard this, it immediately recommended a pile of outrageously high mall goods to her, "Yes." Host, please see, these are all products that can eliminate negative status. There are skills, medicines, you can choose according to your needs. ”
Yu Zizhen: ...... Alas!!!
It's not easy to save points, Zhenzhen sighed.
She asked the system earnestly, "Tongzi, look at the points on my account, do you think I can afford to exchange these things in your mall?" ”
The system had already prepared, and before Yu Zizhen's words fell, it immediately launched three new cannon fodder rescue missions for Yu Zizhen.
"Host, you can get points as long as you do tasks~"
Yu Zizhen: ...... So, the dog system is going around in a circle to urge her to do the task.
But she doesn't care, anyway, as the power center of Daqi, the last thing that this capital lacks is cannon fodder.
In order to achieve point freedom as soon as possible, she doesn't mind keeping herself a little busier in the rest of the time.
After reviewing the content of the task, Yu Zizhen happily took over the three tasks released by the system.
Of course, the speed at which she takes on the task will not affect her complaining about the small milk sound system, "Straighten her tongue and speak well." ”
She had goosebumps, and she didn't know why this guy suddenly had a whim and imitated this strange tone.
Small Milk Tone System: ...... It's not trying to fool her into doing the task!
secretly scolded the "dog host", and the small milk voice system simply ignored Yu Zizhen.
Yu Zizhen laughed secretly, leaned back on the carriage, and began to check the content of the task under the banner of closing his eyes and resting his mind.
The tasks are not very difficult, and all that is involved is the target person she can reach right now.
Yu Zizhen silently memorized the content of the task and the introduction of the target person, and when she remembered it, the carriage they took also returned to the Zhenbei Palace.
The small class in Zhenbei Wangfu also started today, except for Yaoguang, who followed Yu Zizhen out, the other young male and female servants under her name were all divided into two groups by Jiang Yunshan according to gender, and they started classes in a race against time.
Yu Zizhen was very satisfied with Jiang Yunshan's efficiency, and after lunch, she threw Yaoguang to Jiang Yunshan and asked him to open a small stove for Yaoguang to make up for the class she missed this morning, and she went out in a carriage to do tasks under the banner of going out for a walk.
One of the three tasks she just took on was a merchant girl who owned a spice shop at home.
The merchant's daughter's surname is Ji Yinghui, and she is the only child of her father Ji Haoyang who is alive and has grown to be more than ten years old.
Unlike other people's heirs who lost their children and died because of the wives and concubines of the Hou House, none of the children of the Ji family died at the hands of Ji Haoyang's wives and concubines.
Unlike his shrewd and capable father and grandfather, Ji Haoyang is a person who has little talent in perfumery, and has a simple personality, and it is easy to trust relatives and friends.
When Ji Haoyang's grandfather was alive, he worked tirelessly for more than ten years to try to teach (reform) and guide (create) his eldest grandson.
However, although Ji Haoyang is very diligent and obedient, he can always be mediocre because of his limited talent and temperament.
Although Ji Haoyang's father is very capable of doing business and blending fragrances, he inherited Ji Haoyang's grandfather's many daughters and few sons in the matter of giving birth.
Ji Haoyang's grandfather only got him one son in his life, and he only got Ji Haoyang one son in his life, which made the father and son even want to change the heir and let Ji Haoyang be a rich idler under the protection of his own brother.
In the end, they took precautions to marry a shrewd and capable virtuous wife to Ji Haoyang, hoping that she would be able to help Ji Haoyang control the family property in the future, so as not to prevent Ji Haoyang from being deceived by someone who didn't know who would live on the street after the two old ones passed away one after another.
However, what they didn't expect was that Ji Haoyang not only did not inherit their talent for perfume and business, but he also did not inherit their ability to have and raise children.
In addition to Ji Yinghui, the eldest daughter, who stumbled and grew up, Ji Haoyang and his wife have lost their eldest son and second daughter in the past ten years.
Ji Haoyang's wife was depressed because of the child's death, and her body was getting weaker and weaker year by year, and she was also afraid that Ji Haoyang would cut off the incense, so she bought two concubines for Ji Haoyang and asked them to help give birth to children.
However, the concubine also experienced something similar to Ji Haoyang's wife, they either miscarried or the child died, and the three women have spent many sad days in tears until dawn in the past ten years.
