The children have been studying in the academy for more than a month. As a mother, I am also very concerned about the results of the first monthly exam.
Xie Mingxi was not surprised when Ah Luo came back with the first prize and smiled and encouraged her with a few words.
A Luo was a little surprised: "I was deducted one point. Does your mother really not blame me?"
Xie Mingxi laughed and asked: "In your heart, am I so harsh and unkind?"
Ah Luo reacted very quickly and immediately smiled sweetly: "Of course not. In my daughter's heart, the queen mother is the most gentle and loving mother in the world."
Xie Mingxi glanced at the flattering A Luo with a smile but not a smile: "You are serious about what you said!"
A Luo nodded vigorously: "It's absolutely true and absolutely not false."
Mother and daughter were both handsome and funny, while Gu Shanchang on the side chuckled.
A'luo is talented and intelligent. She was carefully and strictly educated since she was a child. She started reading at the age of four. She just entered the Lotus Pond Academy this year. Among all the outstanding freshmen, she is still the most outstanding and dazzling one.
Of course, compared to Xie Mingxi back then, she is still a little behind.
Shan Chang Gu has been a mountain superintendent for decades and has only met one person, Xie Mingxi.
Xie Mingxi smiled and asked about the monthly exam results of Brother You and others. Ah Luo answered them one by one: "...Brother You took the first place in the exam, and cousin Lin took the second place. By the way, cousin Ting took the exam again.
the last one."
Speaking of Brother Ting, I have to tell you something interesting today.
"Cousin Ting is very funny. Sister Yan encouraged him a few words out of good intentions, and he was so excited that he didn't know what to do. He clenched his fists and vowed to study hard. He looked fierce, as if he wanted to beat someone, and Sister Yan was so excited.
I was scared by him..."
Ah Luo imitated the silly way Ting Geer acted when talking to Liu Yan, which made Gu Shanchang laugh heartily.
Xie Mingxi also smiled slightly and glanced at A Luo meaningfully.
Ah Luo is not very emotionally delicate, even a little slow, just like her father back then...
"You haven't finished your homework today, so go to the study by yourself. I'll order someone to call you when you're ready for dinner." The ruthless mother quickly opened her mouth to chase people away.
Ah Luo has long been accustomed to heavy schoolwork and busy study life. Hearing this, he nodded and went to the study room.
Gu Shanchang smiled and scolded: "That's true of you. It's rare that Ah Luo is in such a high mood today that she wants to pester you to talk. What's the harm in staying with her for a while longer?"
Xie Mingxi never argued with Gu Shanchang, and responded with a smile: "Master said yes. How about I ask someone to call A Luo back?"
Sure enough, Gu Shanchang changed his mind immediately: "That's all, it's all done, so don't go back and forth. You, my dear mother, are good at everything, but you are a little too strict with A Luo."
When people grow old, they will always dote on their younger generation and love to nag.
Chief Gu Shan was not exempt from the vulgarity. After scolding for a moment, he felt sorry for Xie Mingxi again: "You are the Queen of the Central Palace, and you take care of everything in the palace. You also have to take charge of the women's workshops in the schools and good halls outside the palace.
.You are so busy all day long, so you have to take good care of yourself..."
Xie Mingxi was very patient. She listened to Gu Shanchang's nagging with a smile and did not argue. She only responded softly.
This was the warm family affection that I had hoped for but could not get in my previous life.
The tender care and love that her biological father and mother did not give her, Master now gave her.
Life is long and the years are quiet, that's how it is.
…
Yin Xiaoxiao is also in a good mood today.
Brother Lin passed the monthly exam for the second time in one fell swoop. Yin Xiaoxiao was very happy and praised Brother Lin profusely. However, her eyes fell on Brother Ting.
Before Yin Xiaoxiao could ask, Brother Ting whispered, "I'm sorry, fifth aunt, I came last in the exam."
Yin Xiaoxiao: “…”
Don’t be angry! Don’t take action!
Yin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, suppressed the anger surging in her heart, and forced out a slightly stiff smile: "When the fifth aunt was studying, her academic performance was not outstanding. You just have to work hard in the future."
In the past, when it came to studying, Brother Ting would always be a little perfunctory and just respond casually. Today, it was as if he had been given a shot of blood. He held his head high and vowed: "Don't worry, fifth aunt! From today on, I will study hard. Part 2
One monthly exam, try to come back a third time."
After saying that, he couldn't wait to take Brother Lin to the study: "Cousin Lin, let's finish our homework first."
Yin Xiaoxiao: “…”
It is a good thing for children to be diligent and motivated, and they should be happy.
But why does she always have some weird feelings in her heart?
Needless to say, Yin Xiaoxiao was concerned about her biological son Brother Lin, and she had never neglected Brother Ting. At that moment, she had doubts in her heart. However, Brother Ting and Brother Lin were always together, and she could not find a chance to talk to him in private.
Ask Brother Lin what's going on.
A few days later, Yin Xiaoxiao went to Jiaofang Hall to talk to Xie Mingxi.
Xiao Yuhan would come to Jiaofang Hall to sit there every day.
There are fewer and fewer elderly faces in the palace, and young female officials are entering the palace one after another. These young and talented female officials are all loyal to Xie Mingxi. Now, the harem is completely under the control of Xie Mingxi.
Except for a few elderly concubines, there is not even a single concubine in the palace. Xiao Yuhan, Yin Xiaoxiao, and Zhao Changqing each lead their children to live in the palace. They are all widowed and are very cautious in their words and actions.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to describe the current harem as peaceful.
Yin Xiaoxiao couldn't hide her words and quickly said worriedly: "I always feel that something is wrong with Brother Ting these days. He likes to go to the martial arts studio on weekdays and is a bit lazy about his studies. These days, he always studies until midnight.
I'm sleeping. I don't know what's going on."
Xiao Yuhan laughed dumbly: "It's a good thing that you study hard. You have nothing to worry about."
Yin Xiaoxiao sighed: "It's a good thing. But it's really strange that brother Ting suddenly changed like this."
Xie Mingxi, who had been silent until now, suddenly smiled and said: "You have also been here since you were young. Can't you think of what makes a young man strive for progress?"
Yin Xiaoxiao: “…”
Xie Mingxi didn't imply this, she made it clear.
Yin Xiaoxiao was not a fool. She knew everything. She opened her mouth in shock: "You mean, Brother Ting, he has just started to fall in love and has a girl he likes?"
Xie Mingxi smiled and said nothing.
Xiao Yuhan was also a little surprised and quickly laughed: "Speaking of which, Brother Ting is also ten years old. He is very tall and strong, and he looks like he is twelve or thirteen years old. He would have been in love earlier.
Strange."
Yin Xiaoxiao finally came to her senses, and the more she thought about it, the more funny she felt: "So that's what happened. I said what's going on, this brat, his blood has been boiling over these days, it turns out to be young Fang Mu Shaoai."
"Wait, how do you know? Do you know that girl too?"
Xie Mingxi refused to say any more: "I'm just making assumptions. Ask Brother Ting yourself and you'll know better."
