Chapter two hundred and sixty-ninth
In the end, Liu Momo decided to only tell her mother. It was probably best for her mother to tell no one, but she thought it was obviously impossible.
After Liu Yu'an returned, he tidied up and had a simple lunch. He still had to go to school in the afternoon. He had already wasted a whole day, which was not good for the children.
He looked at the mask in his hand and touched the mechanism again. He didn't have the curiosity to open it. For a cautious person like Wang Xiaoda, maybe he would know if you touched his mechanism.
Anyway, he has already stayed away from officialdom and doesn't want to care about the rights and wrongs of these things. However, Yang Xu seems to have a very good relationship with Wang Xiaoda. He only hopes that Wang Xiaoda will know his own propriety so as not to drag others down!
He went to school first in the afternoon and then sent her there after school in the evening. Maybe there was no rush. After all, she would go to Yipinxiang for dinner with those people tonight.
Then just delay it for a few more days. Anyway, since the mask is in his hand, he can finally see her alone again.
In the school, Liu Yu'an didn't go for a day in total, and no one said anything when he asked for leave. It was just human nature. So the children in the school didn't know what their Mr. Liu had done.
Tianbao knew about this. Liu Yu'an just went to their house for dinner yesterday, so only the three children knew about it. However, they were all sensible people and would never talk about it with others.
"It's a pity that we don't have a holiday today. Otherwise, I would also like to have a look. My sister's shop only holds such an exhibition. I won't be able to see it in the future. And it's only this one in town. Other people's houses
I guess I can't do it, hey! What a pity." Zhou Tao sighed.
The same was true for Zhou Sheng. His parents had gone there and said they would come back and describe it to him, but what's the use? It was always a pity that he didn't see it with his own eyes.
"It's okay. I heard that if the business of the shop is good, it will be opened once a year and it will be celebrated as a few years after opening. There is still a chance." Tianbao said with a smile.
He also wanted to go because he had never seen such a scene, but the school was not on holiday today, and Mr. Liu was there. If everyone went, they would definitely recognize Mr. Liu, who was so talkative.
, and there are a few others who don’t know how to behave. If they speak out, it will definitely be detrimental to Mr. Liu.
Later, my sister said that if I do well in the future, I might do it once a year. I have no regrets. After all, there is still a chance.
"It will take another year!" Zhou Tao still complained a little.
"There's nothing you can do about it, it's better than nothing."
There is no other way for the three of them. We can only look forward to the next time!
In the afternoon, Liu Yu'an went to school according to the normal time. He hadn't seen him all day and there were no changes. He would start from yesterday's content.
When going back in the evening, Liu Yu'an originally went home directly, but he met Zhenniang on the way.
"Mr. Liu, are you back?" Zhen Niang greeted.
"Yeah." Liu Yu'an also smiled and nodded.
"I, I was reading a book recently, and I don't understand some sentences. Can I ask Mr. Liu later?" Zhenniang asked cautiously.
She really had no chance to talk to Mr. Liu. When buying steamed buns every day, Mr. Liu would only buy them every few days, and her mother was still nearby. She couldn't talk to Mr. Liu in front of so many people.
Moreover, she was very busy at that time of the morning every day. She would only smile at Liu Yuan and have nothing else to say. But this was not enough. They were not even familiar with each other now, so what?
How to talk about other things.
She thought about it, but she didn't know how to talk to Mr. Liu more. Her knowledge was shallow and had no merit. She did know some needlework at her daughter's house, but it was impossible to talk to Mr. Liu!
After thinking about it again, she felt that she had to go with him. It happened that Mr. Liu was a teacher and very knowledgeable. He must also like people who had common topics with him, such as the girl who was well-informed and polite, but she couldn't recognize all the words.
of.
If she asks Mr. Liu questions, he will definitely be willing to teach her, and he must also like people who are eager to learn and make progress. She can talk to him more by asking questions.
After she has been asking for a while and has learned well, she can make a pair of shoes or clothes for Mr. Liu as a thank you gift, so that she can continue to ask in the future.
Moreover, she was only good at embroidery work. If she did well, Mr. Liu would think that she was very clever.
After thinking about it again and again, she felt that there was nothing wrong with it, and she went to buy a book. It was full of poems and essays, but she couldn't even recognize all the words, let alone read them.
After she studied for several days and had a certain score, she came to see Mr. Liu.
After hearing this, Liu Yuan still smiled gently.
"Yes, it's a good thing to read more. If there's anything Miss Zhang doesn't understand, you can ask me." Liu Yu'an said with a smile.
To be fair, he didn't hate this girl, but he just had no feelings for her. He only knew that she was a neighbor's daughter, and when Aunt Tang was here before, she was on good terms with Aunt Zhang.
Now that Aunt Zhang has gone to Yang Xu's shop to help, he will meet this girl when he goes to buy buns.
He could only remember that this girl seemed to be named Zhenniang, a girl who was quite shy but also loved to smile. Whenever he went to buy buns, she would smile at him.
In fact, he moved here a long time ago, but he is used to being independent and spends most of his time in the school every day, so naturally he has no contact with the surrounding neighbors.
He and Miss Zhang didn't exchange a few words in total, but as a teacher, it was naturally a good thing that the girl wanted to study. If there was something he didn't understand, even as a neighbor, he couldn't ignore it.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu. It's very late now. Mr. Liu, please go back to eat quickly! I'll ask you tomorrow." Zhenniang's face turned red with excitement.
He agreed! Since he has agreed, starting from tomorrow, she will ask if there is anything she doesn’t understand. In this way, except for Mr. Liu’s time in the school, the person he talks to the most every day is himself!
"Okay, then I'm going back. It's a little cold outside now. Miss Zhang, please go home too!" Liu Yu'an ordered.
"Um."
Zhenniang quickly lowered her head and responded, not daring to let Liu Yu'an see her eyes. He was so gentle and caring about others, and her heart was beating.
She didn't talk to him, feeling anxious and uncomfortable. But if she did talk to him, after a few words, she was afraid that she would no longer be able to hide the admiration in her eyes.
Zhenniang returned home in a daze. Aunt Zhang called her, but she didn't even hear her.
"Zhen Niang? What's wrong with you? I called you several times, but you didn't say anything? What were you doing? You've been out for a long time." Aunt Zhang asked.
Only then did Zhenniang react. When her mother asked her, she didn't know how to answer.
There is no problem if she doesn't tell the truth now, but if she asks Mr. Liu questions in the future, it will definitely take more than one or two days, and it will be impossible to hide it from her mother.
"I just had a few words with Mr. Liu outside and came back after I finished speaking." Zhenniang answered honestly.
Aunt Zhang was even more confused when she heard this. Her Zhenniang was not familiar with Mr. Liu either! Why did she go out to talk to Mr. Liu?
"When did you and Mr. Liu become so familiar? Why did you go out to talk? What did you say?" Aunt Zhang asked several times.
"I'm not familiar with it. I did wait for Mr. Liu when he came back from school. I read a book a few days ago and I didn't understand some parts, so I wanted to ask him." Zhenniang said honestly.
replied.
Aunt Zhang became even more confused. She even stopped what she was doing and walked up to Zhenniang to observe her carefully.
"What books are you reading? Why didn't I know when you started to love reading? Are you a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking?" Aunt Zhang said suspiciously.
How could she not know about her own daughter? When it comes to reading and literacy, she really didn't treat her badly, even when she was seven or eight years old, but she didn't have this talent herself, and later she could only read and not look down upon her.
That's it for being blind.
This girl in her family loves embroidery the most, and she is indeed very good at it, but her embroidery skills are nothing to say. She has never taken the initiative to read books, and she doesn't even like to read books if the girl likes to read them.
Now she told herself that if she read a book a few days ago, she still had any questions that she didn't know. She even went outside to wait for Mr. Liu, just waiting to ask questions. After saying this, Mr. Liu might believe it, but she would definitely not believe it.
.
Now she only wonders whether her daughter is too big-hearted to fall in love with Mr. Liu? No wonder she didn't say anything about other people. It turned out that she had a small idea.
How could Zhenniang dare to admit it? She didn't expect that her mother would be so keen and notice it so quickly, but she would never dare to say anything.
"No, there is no such thing. I really read a book a few days ago, and the book is still in my room! Why can't I ask questions?" Zhen Niang said harshly.
"I don't know you yet? When did you like reading?" Aunt Zhang curled her lips.
"I really do. Don't you also like Sister Yang? She is knowledgeable and courteous, and she also said that it is important for girls to read and write more books, and there will be more reading skills. I also want to
Become someone like Sister Yang, smart and wise." Zhen Niang argued.
She didn't feel guilty at all when she said this. She really admired Yang Xu. It seemed that she could do everything. She cooked delicious food, was good-looking, and knew how to do business. The most important thing was that she knew everything, including talking to men.
We can also talk about it together.
She had been to Yang Xu's house before, and the house in her house was more beautiful than other people's houses. She couldn't say what looked good, but it made people feel comfortable and elegant.
She couldn't learn it. She also envied that Yang Xu had many friends, not only girls but also men, who could talk to her happily. Moreover, she also saw them talking, and Yang Xu was always talkative.
Not shy or inferior.
She has always been calm and orderly, and those men sometimes listen to her opinions.
She is really good at everything. As far as she knows, when it comes to business, before Miss Zhou's shop opened, she often came over, always trying to make up her mind and asking Sister Yang.
As for the clothes in the shop, Sister Yang can also design them. You can see from today's exhibition that Sister Yang is also very good at designing clothes. She can think of things that others can't think of and make them.
When she didn't understand before, she also thought for a long time about what made Sister Yang better than her? It seemed that apart from her natural beauty, Sister Yang's family used to be from the countryside.
It seems that she just recognizes some words, and then she has read a lot of books. She is only twenty years old, and she is so good. It seems that the bottom line is that she has read a lot of books, or else she is very smart.
Zhenniang doesn't like reading, because she doesn't like it very much from the bottom of her heart. She thinks it's a bit boring. She would rather embroider and make a dress by herself, which is much more comfortable than holding a book.
Even those story books that many girls like, she doesn't like very much, she just doesn't like to read articles by nature.
But she also envied people like Sister Yang. Everyone thought she was timid and shy, but that was not the case. She just had a low self-esteem and didn't know what to say when talking to others. The woman was better and could talk.
Some needlework or something, but she didn’t know anything about the man, so how could she talk to him?
Now she is reading, not just to talk to Mr. Liu, she also really wants to read more books. If she can read well and read and write more, she can be like Sister Yang. She doesn't want to be like Yang.
My sister is so awesome. As long as she knows more, she will be able to talk more with others in the future.
Aunt Zhang saw that Zhenniang seemed to be serious, so she believed it. But she still couldn't help but hit her daughter.
"If you are studying now, if you work hard for more than ten years, you probably won't be able to catch up with Yang Yatou."
"I know, I don't want to be as powerful as Sister Yang. I just want to read and write more books and know more in the future. I can't be like now where I can't say a few words to others and don't understand at all.
"Zhen Niang said softly.
Aunt Zhang was just such a daughter, so she naturally felt distressed. When she saw Zhenniang feeling sad, she thought she had spoken too harshly, making her daughter less confident.
"You don't understand anything at all. You can't just compare with Yang Yatou. There is no one in the ten miles and eight villages who can compare with her. We should compare with ordinary people. You still compare
They are much better. You don't like reading, but few of those girls can read, let alone read. And your embroidery skills, I'm afraid there are no girls in this town who can match you.
Not many." Aunt Zhang praised.
She really felt that Zhenniang was already a very good child. Compared with most girls, she knew more things than others! She didn’t know that even if a matchmaker came to the house, she wouldn’t dare to do it unless he was a very good boy.
