Now that the Xu family is in charge, Ye Jingzhi, mother and son, are going to settle down in the Xie Mansion, so they must inform the Xu family in advance.
Xie Mingxi went to see Xu in person.
He didn't mention the whole story, only that he wanted to settle down Ye Qiuniang's family.
There was no reason why Mrs. Xu should not respond to such a trivial matter. She immediately smiled and said: "There are still a few vacant rooms for the servants. Just pick two quieter ones and let them stay."
"For food and clothing, just like the servants in the house, they will be given a share as usual. There will be no monthly payment. If you pay attention to the benefits of rice, you should not raise a white-eyed wolf who does not know what is good or bad."
Speaking of the white-eyed wolf, Mrs. Xu felt deeply.
Then I thought about it, now I have brought my children and grandchildren to live in the Xie Mansion, I am in charge of the family, and I have saved a lot of money in my private house. I can be considered a blessing in my old age.
Xie Mingxi smiled and thanked: "Grandma, thank you for taking the trouble."
Mrs. Xu was particularly kind to Xie Mingxi. Even her direct grandchildren were not as good as her: "This trivial matter is nothing to worry about. You really put a lot of effort into studying for Lan Niang and Yuan Zhou."
Xie Lanxi and Xie Yuanzhou studied the Four Books and Five Classics while studying music with Master Yang.
Master Yang was a serious master in Lianchi Academy. He had to attend classes in Lianchi Academy on one day out of three days, and taught private students on the other two days.
However, Master Yang only agreed to Xie Mingxi's request, and also taught Xie Lanxi's sister and brother to study. Shu Xiu also accepted only a token amount.
This favor must fall on Xie Mingxi.
Xie Mingxi smiled casually: "Grandma always expresses her gratitude for small things, but this is not the case." She paused and smiled again: "Speaking of which, I have never been to Lan Xi's cousin Yuanzhou Hall.
This is where my brother has class. I have a good day off tomorrow, so I just want to go and have a look."
Before Xu could say anything, Xie Yuanzhou rushed over with joy on his face and grabbed Xie Mingxi's sleeve: "Cousin Mingxi, do you really want to accompany us to class?"
Xie Mingxi responded with a smile.
Xie Yuanzhou shouted happily.
Mrs. Xu laughed and scolded: "I haven't stopped for a moment, I'm just like a living monkey! Go back and review your books quickly."
Although his mouth was full of curses, his eyes were full of love and compassion.
…
Xie Mingxi saw it in her eyes, and a hint of regret and desolation flashed through her heart.
After her rebirth, she suppressed Princess Yongning and her daughter in every way, and Aunt Ding and her son could not make any trouble. They shone brightly in the academy and no one could match them. It was smooth sailing and very satisfying.
However, some regrets can never be made up for.
For example, the warmth and affection in front of you.
Xie Jun's "love" for her was mixed with too much utilitarianism. Once she fell into the dust, Xie Jun would probably fall out of love faster than turning over a book. Mr. Xie was just like Xie Jun, both because of her time
Only when Hua shows his unstoppable strength will he be nice to her.
Who in this world would look at her with such love and pity?
This thought lasted forever, and the face of the Sixth Princess suddenly flashed across my mind.
In the past month, she no longer inquired about the truth, and had a new tacit understanding with the Sixth Princess. During the day, she urged the Sixth Princess to study and practice calligraphy, and at night they practiced martial arts together. Then, the Sixth Princess would always send her back to her home.
The carriage of the Sixth Princess was filled with all kinds of pastries carefully made by the royal chef in the palace, as well as honey-water scented tea of different flavors. The Sixth Princess did not like sweets, so all these were naturally prepared for her.
This quiet consideration was never spoken by the Sixth Princess, and she never made it clear.
It seems that opening one's mouth will break this delicate peace and tranquility.
Lin Weiwei is her good friend and has the same temperament as her. Yin Xiaoxiao has a bright temperament, but Fang Ruomeng is a little timid and admires her wholeheartedly.
The sixth princess was different from the three of them...she couldn't describe how different they were.
But she knew very clearly that the Sixth Princess was different.
"Cousin Mingxi," Xie Lanxi's gentle voice interrupted Xie Mingxi's moment of confusion: "I learned new piano music today, and I have memorized all the fingerings, but it's always a bit obscure when I practice. Please give me some advice, cousin. .”
Xie Mingxi quickly came to her senses and responded with a smile.
…
The next day, Xie Mingxi accompanied Xie Lanxi and her brother and sister to Mrs. Yang's "little private school".
Literary style prevailed in the capital, and even ordinary people wanted to let their children learn some writing. Since they couldn't afford to go to an expensive academy, they looked for a small private school.
Master Yang rented a courtyard with two entrances and taught about ** students. It was considered a small private school.
Master Yang was good at temperament and taught attentively. The students who came to learn temperament all liked Master Yang. Even though the price of the training was a little more expensive, no family members of the students complained.
The Xie family brothers came quite early and saluted respectfully: "I have met the Master."
Xie Mingxi also smiled and saluted.
Master Yang did not expect Xie Mingxi to appear here. He was both happy and a little embarrassed: "Xie Mingxi, why are you here today?"
Xie Mingxi said with a smile: "Today the academy is closed for bathing. I rarely have free time, so I accompanied cousin Lan Xi and cousin Yuan Zhou here. These two days, thanks to Master Lao's careful teaching, the two of them have made great progress."
While she was chatting, people often forgot that she was only a ten-year-old girl.
Master Yang secretly laughed, and the embarrassment disappeared, and he said with a smile: "Xie Lanxi is careful and conscientious, and Xie Yuanzhou is smart and lively. They are both potential talents."
Of course it is far inferior to Xie Mingxi.
But, how many people are as talented as Xie Mingxi in the world?
Both Xie Lanxi and her brother have average or above-average qualifications. As long as they study hard and study hard, it is natural that they will make progress.
…
Master Yang casually ordered Xie Lanxi and her brother to practice the piano and drums respectively. Then, he whispered to Xie Mingxi: "In fact, the mountain chief has already known about my setting up a small private school here. The mountain chief is considerate of my difficulties, but I don't know. .”
Then, he showed a wry smile: "Actually, I also know that this kind of behavior is inappropriate. I am no longer worthy of staying at Lianchi Academy."
Xie Mingxi looked at Master Yang steadily: "So, Master Yang plans to resign and leave Lianchi Academy?"
Master Yang's whole body trembled when his thoughts were revealed. He wanted to nod, but he couldn't do it. His eyes quietly flashed with water.
Leaving Lotus Pond Academy?
How could she give up?
At that time, she was a widow in the Jiang family. Her mother-in-law was mean and her aunt was harsh, and her life was difficult. It was Chief Gu who personally came to the house and invited her to be a concubine at Lianchi Academy, which solved her dilemma.
She has been a concubine at Lianchi Academy for several years and has long regarded Lianchi Academy as her home. How could she be willing to leave?
However, the Jiang family was greedy and shameless, and used their daughter to force her. She was forced to have no choice but to earn money in this way. Last month, she sent twenty taels of silver back to the Jiang family.
How could she be qualified to be the wife of Lotus Pond Academy?
The thought of leaving Lianchi Academy made Master Yang's heart feel like a knife.
Xie Mingxi's voice rang in Master Yang's ears: "Master, do you really want to continue like this?" (To be continued)
