Jia Baoyu saw Daiyu coming here every day to teach Xiangling how to read and write, and she always followed him when there was nothing wrong.
But Xiangling can only be regarded as a beginner. Daiyu can just teach her how to read. Why does Jia Baoyu need to help her?
It would be boring to have him around like this.
Seeing Qingwen sewing gloves inside, he ran to Qingwen and suggested, "How about I teach you how to read?"
"unnecessary."
The simple and direct rejection made Jia Baoyu stunned on the spot.
He never thought that, as his master, he would deign to teach Qingwen how to read. It should be an honor for Qingwen.
Even if she doesn't like studying in her heart, she should always decline in a more tactful way.
It's so embarrassing to look like this... Fortunately, there is no one else in the room.
He looked up and saw Qingwen turning sideways, immersed in her work as a female worker. She had no intention of paying attention to him at all, so she could only walk out with a lonely look. Seeing that Daiyu was still at the table and Professor Xiangling was serious, she was not in the mood to get close to her.
I went forward and sat on a stool aside in a daze.
"Okay, you can copy all these groups of words ten times."
After Xiangling was taught how to read and write more than ten characters, Daiyu turned around and glanced at Jia Baoyu, who was disappointed. Without saying anything, she picked up the book beside her and started reading.
Suddenly I felt a shadow passing by, and I raised my head. It turned out that it was Jia Lian, a tall man, who had walked in and blocked the light at the door.
Daiyu stood up and said softly: "Second brother Lian."
Jia Lian nodded, walked to the table, put a hand on Xiang Ling's shoulder, and held down Xiang Ling who was about to get up, then looked at her homework and said with a smile: "Yes, my handwriting is getting better and better.
Your writing is better than mine. As expected, only famous teachers can produce great disciples. It seems that it won’t be long before you can become a teacher.”
Daiyu curled her lips and thought, "Is it difficult to write better than you? If you just find a few people who are not too stupid and teach them for a few days, I'm afraid they can write better than you."
After all, she respected Jia Lian and was too embarrassed to hit him.
Jia Baoyu also wanted to come over to say hello, but suddenly a figure rushed out of the back room quickly.
"Second Master, you are back..."
Qingwen ran to Jia Lian, threw herself on the table, raised her head, and greeted Jia Lian with a smile.
Jia Lian casually flicked her forehead and said, "Open more, it will erase all the words Xiang Ling worked hard to write."
Qingwen quickly stood up, covering her head and pouting, but she quickly came forward with a smile and read the words written by Xiangling with Jia Lian.
For a moment, Jia Lian and Dai Yu said a few words, then said goodbye and went out. She immediately chased him out, and her voice came from the corridor, "Second Master, wait for me. I have something to say to Second Master..."
In the room, Jia Baoyu stood blankly, feeling that he had suffered the most ruthless blow to him in the world.
…
Qingwen chased Jia Lian to the main house.
Since there was no one else in the room, Jia Lian called Qingwen forward, asked her to sit on his lap, and then asked: "Where is your second grandma?"
Qingwen replied casually and looked at Jia Lian with great resentment.
"What's wrong?"
"Second Master is a liar."
Jia Lian chuckled and pinched her red cheeks.
Qingwen twisted a bit, adjusted her seat, faced Jia Lian, and said unhappily: "Don't try to hide it from me, you must have taken Ping'er away last night!"
"How did you know..."
"Hmph, how do I know? Xiangling was kicked out by you so late, and you called Ping'er in again. I know all this.
This morning I saw Ping'er quietly washing clothes and mattresses at the back..."
Qingwen acted like you don’t even try to hide it from me, I’ve already seen through everything.
Jia Lian looked at it and found it funny, so he slapped her again and said sternly: "There are no rules. Regardless of seniority, Ping'er is still a few years older than you. She doesn't even call her sister. She's just Ping'er."
Qingwen snorted softly.
In the past, of course she was called "Sister Ping'er", but now that Ping'er has taken the position that should have belonged to her, she is naturally unhappy.
Who will be the second best in this courtyard from now on?
"Second Master is hateful. If you don't like me, just say so and let me just be a maid in peace."
It's really annoying to say you like someone and yet dislike them at the same time."
Qingwen had reason to be unhappy.
She was the aunt given by Jia Mu. Jia Lian did not accept her, but instead adopted Ping'er first.
This will cause her status to be unstable!
Those maids and women would not say that the second master was pitying her for being so young, they would only say that she was not liked enough by Jia Lian.
But she herself knows that Jia Lian likes her very much, but if Jia Lian doesn't accept her for a day, those people will keep gossiping behind her back. She can't catch everyone and argue with her.
In order to dispel Qingwen's random thoughts, Jia Lian planned to scare her, so he said: "You are so beautiful, you think I don't want to take you in? But there is another reason, do you want to hear it?"
"what?"
"You have been in the house for almost a year. You should know that in a family like ours, the masters and young masters have many concubines and maidens, but in the end, there are only a few who are granted the title of aunt. Do you know why?
?”
Qingwen had never thought about this problem before. When Jia Lian said it, she immediately thought, yes, seriously, there are really not many aunts in the house!
Just like the master, I heard that there are only two aunts in these years...
Everyone says that my wife is virtuous, but she is not jealous like Second Grandma Lian, so why do you only have two aunts?
Jia Lian didn't wait for Qingwen to think clearly, then said: "Let me tell you, because most of those concubines who had sex with each other are dead."
"ah?"
Qingwen was startled and asked quickly: "Why did you die?"
This news is so terrible, I now belong to this sequence!
"Why, there are many reasons, but the most important one is that they died of dystocia... Do you know why they had dystocia?"
Qingwen shook her head, completely believing Jia Lian's words.
She seemed to have also heard that giving birth to a child was a life-and-death moment for a woman. Even the second master said so, and it seemed to be true.
She was also a woman and would definitely give birth to children. She didn't want to die, so she looked at Jia Lian eagerly, hoping that Jia Lian would help her clarify her doubts so that she could avoid it in the future.
"One is because of being thin. If a woman wants to look good, most of her will be thin. Since she is thin, she is naturally weak.
The second reason is that girls who are young and good-looking are most likely to be attracted by men very early and are taken into the room before their bodies have fully grown.
Think about it, don’t you have all of these two items?
So if you want me to accept you now, it's not impossible, but I'm just afraid that you will probably follow in their footsteps..."
When Qingwen heard this, her face turned pale.
Although she does not feel that she is thin, but with her slim figure, slim waist and narrow shoulders, she is naturally not a strong woman.
Jia Lian could lift her up with one hand.
As for her age, she has just turned twelve, so naturally she is considered that.
Jia Lian just didn't want Qingwen to think about her sacrifice all the time. Seeing that her face turned pale with fear, he felt a little distressed.
So he hurriedly comforted him: "Okay, your second master is not that kind of person who doesn't care about others, so naturally he won't put you in danger.
Your sister Ping'er will be seventeen soon and is in good health, so I took her in first.
You don't say you're grateful that I pity you so much, and you come here to complain about me. Think about it, isn't that right?"
Qingwen nodded immediately, she had never been so serious before.
She was so touched and touched, "Thank you...Thank you, sir. I will never bother you about this again. I am so kind to you!"
Qingwen immediately gave Jia Lian a sweet kiss as a reward.
Jia Lian accepted it with a polite smile, then slapped her on the butt and asked her to get a cup of tea.
As expected, Qingwen jumped down immediately and poured a cup of warm tea very neatly. While Jia Lian was drinking tea, she very wisely stood behind Jia Lian and pinched his shoulders.
Thinking that Jia Lian was so kind to her, she hesitated for a moment and decided to tell Jia Lian the information she had gleaned.
"Second Master, let me tell you something. In the morning, I saw Sister Ping'er sneaking around, so I deliberately paid attention to her.
It turned out that Sister Ping'er asked Ma Liu to buy a pack of medicine from outside, and she fried it and ate it alone in the house.
Second Master, you definitely don’t understand, but I do!”
Jia Lian frowned when he heard this, but seeing Qingwen's showoff, he still gave her face: "What do you know?"
"Hmph, Sister Ping'er must have eaten the Bizi Soup!"
Hearing Qingwen's determination, Jia Lian was a little surprised, "How do you know it must be Bizitang?"
Qingwen pouted.
Did the Second Master forget that she was sent here by Jia Mu as his aunt?
In those few months in Jia Mu's house, the upbringing nuns gave her all the rules on how to be a good aunt, so she knew all these things.
But she didn't explain, "I just know."
Jia Lian put down his tea cup, stood up, asked Ping'er, who was probably still in the house, and went to Ping'er's room.
