Her parents had already tried their best to raise her and her younger brother, how could they ask them to let her learn music, chess, calligraphy and painting?
For so many years, she only knew how to cook, wash, weave, and work in the fields. How could she have any talents?
It's a beauty pageant. Isn't appearance enough alone? What more talent is needed?
Thinking of this, Huang Yuzhu angrily carried the bucket and went out to fetch water.
I happened to meet Liu Wenjie who was looking for the address.
Liu Wenjie couldn't help but blush when he saw it was Huang Yuzhu. He didn't know what to say for a moment.
Huang Yuzhu didn't pay attention to this person at all. He just felt that he looked familiar and passed him by without much thought.
Seeing Huang Yuzhu passing by, Liu Wenjie felt anxious and regretful. Why didn't he say hello to her just now?
Liu Wenjie turned around and looked at Huang Yuzhu's retreating back. He followed her carefully, wanting to take the initiative to say hello, but he was a little afraid of being rejected by her.
He took a deep breath and was just about to follow when a boy suddenly came out of the alley, whistled and walked side by side next to Huang Yuzhu.
But Huang Yuzhu had no intention of resisting.
Liu Wenjie's heart sank, who is he?
Huang Yuzhu and the boy walked to the well talking and laughing. The boy fetched water, carried the bucket and went home with Huang Yuzhu.
"Could it be that...she is already married?" Liu Wenjie speculated in his heart, but if he gave up without clarifying this matter, what a pity it would be if it wasn't the case!
Liu Wenjie waited for a long time, waiting for the family to finish their meal, but they never came out again. What should I do?
"Ahem." Liu Wenjie coughed twice to embolden himself, then walked over and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" The boy just answered and came out to open the door. When he saw a stranger, he looked at him doubtfully.
Liu Wenjie saw that he looked a little more childish than Huang Yuzhu, so he immediately relaxed a lot and asked, "Is this Miss Yuzhu's house?"
"What do you want from her?" the boy asked.
Huang Yuzhu heard someone looking for her, so she walked out of the living room and asked: "Xiaoyan, who is looking for me?"
"Sister," the boy turned around and said to Huang Yuzhu, "I don't know you."
Hearing him call her sister, Liu Wenjie was completely relieved and said with a smile: "I am Liu Wenjie who is in charge of registration in Su Mansion. You met me once this afternoon when you went to register."
Huang Yuzhu stared at him for a few seconds, thinking about what happened in the afternoon, and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. She lowered her head and said "Oh" and said nothing more.
"Zhu'er, who is looking for you? Invite him to sit in the room." Huang's father's voice sounded from the back room.
Huang Yuzhu raised her head and asked, "What do you want from me?"
Liu Wenjie said: "Why did you suddenly stop signing up this afternoon? Is there any difficulty?"
Huang Yuzhu paused, shook his head, and said: "You still want to be special, but I don't have any talents and I don't meet your requirements."
When Liu Wenjie heard this reason, he immediately smiled and said, "Everyone has their own specialties. Can you cook? Do you know how to do laundry? Do you know how to work in the fields? These are your specialties!"
Huang Yuzhu was a little surprised. She raised her head and looked at Liu Wenjie and said, "These are considered specialties? Isn't this something every girl can do?"
Liu Wenjie smiled and said: "That's not necessarily true! There are three, six, and nine levels of cooking, and there are also different levels of work. Who does it better will only be known after others evaluate it!"
"But my food is mediocre, and it's just the most ordinary food, not big fish or meat." Huang Yuzhu still looked worried.
"Oh, Miss Yuzhu, don't think too much. Specialties are better if you have them, but it doesn't matter if you don't have them. What specialties do you want to learn? I can teach you!" Liu Wenjie couldn't help but feel anxious when he saw that he actually persuaded her to quit.
.
Huang Yuzhu looked at him and asked: "You teach me? But I have no money! Besides, what can you teach me?"
Liu Wenjie said: "I don't charge money! I can write, draw, write poetry, and write articles. You can learn whatever you want. Even if you want to learn to play piano or chess, I can find someone to teach you!"
Huang Yuzhu looked at Liu Wenjie's eager eyes, and she seemed to understand something, but... he was too enthusiastic, which made her feel annoying, so her eyes changed and she said coldly: "I'm sorry, I don't want to learn anything, and I don't want to learn anything."
I don’t want to sign up anymore, thank you for your kindness, please go ahead.” After saying that, he closed the door.
Liu Wenjie said "Hey" and was pushed out of the door before he could react.
"It's over, it's over, I didn't leave a good impression on her the first time, Yuzhu, Huang Yuzhu, what should I do to attract your attention?" Liu Wenjie walked home gloomily.
After dinner, Su Yining helped Zhao Ling'er walk in the garden, while Mrs. Su and Master Su used small shovels to loosen the soil and fertilize the flowers.
I just heard Master Su say: "Hey, I have to water the flowers tomorrow morning. It hasn't rained for almost a month."
Mrs. Su said: "Yes, I remember it hasn't rained since the New Year."
"Could it be that this year... Bah! What a mouth! This year will definitely be smooth sailing." Master Su said to himself.
"Old man, since you are free at home, don't think so much. Everything is God's will. Let's just do our own thing well." Mrs. Su comforted her.
Zhao Ling'er was in a good mood at the moment.
There have been many people signing up in the past two days, and many sponsors have also been attracted. Raising 5,000 taels is no longer a problem. The key is how to make the beauty pageant more influential and how to use it to contribute to Yunzhou.
It can bring a positive impact to the city and help the people of Yunzhou do some practical things. This is the most troublesome part at the moment.
And Su Yining, since the Chinese New Year, he has been busy doing business and making money. He hasn't studied hard for a long time. He will take the exam soon, so he can't lose the big for the small!
Zhao Ling'er looked up at Su Yining and asked, "Have you studied hard these days?"
Su Yi Ning was stunned for a moment, blushed a little, and said, "I'll memorize it carefully tomorrow."
Zhao Ling'er sighed, it can't go on like this!
If you hold activities at home, it will definitely affect him.
How to think of a way to keep him away from this yard and go to a secluded place to study peacefully?
Governor Wang!
Zhao Ling'er suddenly thought of Wang Ruoxi's father.
He happened to be idle at home, and he was a serious scholar who successfully passed the imperial examination and became an official. It would be perfect for him to supervise the study and study of these people who are taking the examination!
Thinking of this, Zhao Ling'er smiled and said to Su Yining: "Do you think Li Heng can pass the exam this time?"
Su Yi Ning shook his head and said: "It's a bit confusing. His foundation is too weak. He is not even a little bit behind us."
"Then you have to find a way to help him!"
Su Yi Ning frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "How can I help him? I can't take care of myself!"
Zhao Ling'er smiled and asked: "You said that if Governor Wang personally tutors him and he still fails to pass the exam, then Governor Wang will have nothing to say, right?"
"Then...hahaha, then he must have nothing to say." Su Yi Ning smiled.
"But to be honest, if Governor Wang is willing to help him, then he may really pass the exam!" Su Yining thought about it carefully and said seriously.
"Yes, it just so happens that Governor Wang is idle at home during this period, and Li Heng is his son-in-law. Isn't this the right time, the right place, and the right people!" Zhao Ling'er said.
"However, Li Heng has always been a little afraid of Governor Wang. I guess... he is unwilling to ask him for advice!" Su Yining said.
"In that case, just drag him along! With you around, he will definitely relax a lot. Besides, Governor Wang is not only knowledgeable, but more importantly, he has practiced it personally for so many years, and must have accumulated a lot of practical and concrete knowledge.
Methods, these can be put into your argument section."
Su Yi Ning lowered his head and said nothing, thought for a moment, and said, "That's right. He is afraid of Governor Wang, but I am not. Besides, we are here to study, and our purpose is pure. He probably won't reject us."
"In this case, I will first ask Wang Ruoxi to write a letter to her father to test her feelings. If her father agrees, you can go again, so that you can be mentally prepared."
Su Yining thought for a moment, nodded and said: "Well, that's good too."
After returning from a walk, Zhao Ling'er walked into the study and told Wang Ruoxi her thoughts. At the same time, she mentioned that she might disturb Su Yining by holding activities.
