C16 A first-class girl is illiterate (1)

Xu Mingwei ignored them and continued to instruct, "This is the end of the matters with fourth wife, who else is secretly discussing about spreading the news behind the scenes.

Wan Rou and the others knew that although their young mistress was only five years old and had very little to say, she spoke with authority. They had no choice but to lower their heads and bow, "I understand."

Xu Mingwei put her hands behind her back and returned to her room, the look of a small adult in the eyes of all the servants of moon-nesting, was indescribably comical and cute. However, no one had the courage to laugh behind her back. They respectfully bowed and sent his off with their gazes, only daring to straighten up after he had walked far away.

Wan Ting patted her chest and sighed, "Aiyo, seven girls has this kind of expression I saw the last time I saw you chasing the wet nurse away, it almost scared my soul out of my body."

Wan Yi turned and asked Wan Rong, "Sister Wan Rong, what is Miss getting angry about?"

Wan Rong poked her finger at Wan Ting's head, "Are you really so stupid that you didn't even know you had been tricked, or did you just take Nanny Xu's money?"

Wan Ting cried out in injustice and tried to defend himself, "What does Sister Wan Rong think of me? Those few coins are things that I can take a liking to, I saw that six girls was also there yesterday and it is understandable for the dishes to be better, but who would have known that the size of the five girls's heart is smaller than a sesame seed needle, and things could even go wrong like that. "I truly died from injustice."

"The things that the girl told you to do, hurry up and do it. Also, don't let that Nanny Xu send her to the main house again. She will be annoying if she has too many eyes, so that the girl won't get angry again if she sees her. We are watching the joke of the fourth wife here, and we are still watching the joke of our Xu Family outside. You must know that this joke does not have two words on it. "

Wan Rou finally understood Xu Mingwei's intentions, and thought that she had almost brought disaster upon herself by implicating her own name as a lady for the fourth wife's five girls, what kind of trouble was that! Besides, their young lady was currently in the middle of entering the palace as a reading companion. If something went wrong, they wouldn't be able to afford to pay even if they sold them.

Wan Rou quickly retorted. Everyone looked at him for a bit, then dispersed.

Wan Ting received Wan Rong's orders, and was afraid that her actions would be disliked by Xu Mingwei, so she took the silver and immediately headed towards the big kitchen.

The movements that fourth wife had made this morning, the Nanny Xu had sharp and clear eyes, and naturally, the little girls and the married women who were familiar with each other came over to talk to him, and cried out in their hearts, thinking that this time, she really was doomed to fail at stealing chickens. They did not know what attitude the main house and the second house had, and might even use him as a gavel to restrain their family's arrogance.

Nanny Xu had been waiting all morning for the blade above her head to fall. She did not have the mood to make breakfast, so she gave it to the stove below. The servants in the big kitchen had made a ruckus last night, drunk to the point of drunkenness. After waking up to listen to the affairs of the fourth wife, how could they dare to hide and take time off?

This time, Nanny Xu did not dare cheat, as the three girls' courtyards were filled with the same kind of purple rice porridge, six different dishes and one type of green bean horseshoe cake. On the other hand, of the second house added another cup of Lotus Seed Soup. She wondered if Nanny Xu had carried the hope that this cup of Lotus Seed Soup could strike down the fire in her heart.

Who would have thought that before the blade had even landed, Nanny Xu would come to the courtyard of the mansion with Wan Ting and the silver she got yesterday.

"Here, seven girls has given it to you. Momo, take it. Last night, even though the restaurant girl didn't eat well, the mama still spent money to make this exception. The silver girl shouldn't be far from dragging you down. "It's just that there are a lot of things to do in the kitchen, so I don't have to do anything else to personally deliver it in the future. Since young, I've never been picky. I just have to follow Second Branch fourth wife to have the little girls deliver it …" Wan Ting's words were polite, but there was scorn written all over her eyes, without waiting for Nanny Xu to reply, she sneered and stuffed the silver bag into her hands.

Nanny Xu knew that the seven girls was not willing to fight directly with him, so she wanted to flatter him. In the end, however, she ended up in the wrong, as the master of the house, she was afraid that she would lose her way.

With a sullen face, she took the bag over, and apologized, "It's all my fault. Just a small matter and I've caused trouble for the seven girls, I hope that Miss Wan Ting can consider the fact that we are from the same house, and say some good words for my wife in front of Miss, don't piss me off."

Seeing her so old and even being so respectful to him, Wan Ting couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in his heart. He was wary of Xu Mingwei in his heart, so he dared not say anything more. After exchanging a few words with the Nanny Xu, he retreated back to the moon-nesting.

When Wan Ting returned to the courtyard, she found Xu Mingwei practicing calligraphy in her small study. She was still young and had no strength left in her wrists, but she had to put a sandbag around her wrists. In the first few days, the hands that tied the sandbag were swollen, causing the girls' hearts to ache.

"Is it done? Have you brought the Nanny Xu's words yet? " When Xu Mingwei heard the footsteps, he did not even turn her head around as she said this.

Wan Ting secretly cried out in her heart, but this lady's ears were off. No matter how light the footsteps in the room were, she could hear who they were, and immediately kept her expression and said in a deep voice, "Reporting to the miss, the silver has already been given to Nanny Xu, she is not a fool. She understood what the lady meant, and is afraid that the miss will blame her, so she asked this servant to say some good words in front of the lady."

As he spoke, Xu Mingwei's big word had already been written. Wan Ting hurriedly rolled up his sleeves and took it, drying the ink at the window and complimented, "The young lady's writing is getting better and better."

Xu Mingwei turned her head and laughed: "This is not a horizontal line, this is not a vertical line, what's there to look at?"

Wan Ting said anxiously, "Although this servant does not know how to read, but I truly think that the young lady's calligraphy is very good."

Xu Mingwei smiled and shook her head, she did not want to argue with her. She could only give up listening to the flattery of the servants. She knew clearly in her heart that writing was a child's skill, and she had only been practicing seriously for two months. However, she had barely managed to write the entire calligraphy, and was still far from reaching the bone of wind.

Seeing that she did not make a sound, Wan Ting raised his wrist to write on the xuan paper and obediently stood aside. After Xu Mingwei finished writing one, he swiftly took the paper and blew on it to dry.

After practicing the set twenty large characters, Xu Mingwei finally changed to a smaller piece, then buried her head in the written invitation once again.

Previously, when she looked at the girls in the room and saw that they couldn't read at all, she was so annoyed by copying her words that she started writing whatever she wanted. In the end, she was seen by Xu Mingmei yesterday. Fortunately, everyone was still young and did not have any good poems. Otherwise, that 'Ming Mei' song from yesterday would have definitely caused trouble.

It was easy to plagiarize a poem or two from the ancients, but if this tree was given a name and was not his own, there would always be a time when something was exposed. Moreover, Xu Mingwei had only recited a few poems in school. She had already been out of the society for so many years, how could she remember clearly that there were not many poems that could be recited in one go?

Originally, her status and position were all here, there was no need to rely on this to add to her reputation. All she asked of her was that she could escape the liquor when she was playing with the other ladies.

From now on, I can't write random things anymore. Xu Mingwei made a note in his heart, and when he turned around, he saw Wan Ting tilting her head to look at her side, her eyes shining with a strange light, as if what she had written on the xuan paper was not a word, but a piece of gold.

"What, you want to learn?" Xu Mingwei laughed.

"No, no, no …" Wan Ting immediately denied and denied. Reading and recognizing words wasn't something that they, the servants, could think of.

"It's not that hard of a task. If you serve in the yard, it's good to be able to recognize a few words. At the very least, you'll be able to find the lesson I want to hand in in in the future." Xu Mingwei thought back to the last time. She didn't know whether it was Wan Ting or Wan Yi, but she had placed her lesson on the table that she wanted to give to Master Fang together with the other paper. In the end, she couldn't find it when she was going to hand it over, but she had spent a lot of effort to save it from burning a pile of paper.

From that time on, there was a new rule in the study: you didn't have to pack up the things that the girl had pressed down on the paperweight, instead of doing the same as that time.

Hearing her talk about this, Wan Ting blushed a little, the ones who were on duty that day were her and Wan Yi, the one who was cleaning up the ink was Wan Yi, she was the one who was doing the wrong thing. Fortunately, the girl was magnanimous and gave up when she found them. She did not investigate who had committed the crime. If he were to meet someone like the fourth wife in another courtyard, even a few punches and curses would be considered light.

found an excuse for himself, it was good to be able to learn a few words, but the next time the young lady wanted to find something, she would not need to point at the size of the words for a long time, and happily said: "Is the young lady really willing to teach the servants how to read?"

"How could I lie to you?" Xu Mingwei kept his brush and said indifferently.

Wan Ting was elated, she knew that his young mistress had always kept her word, and since she had already said it out loud, this matter could be considered as halfway done. She did not even bother to clean up and ran out to tell Wan Rou and the others the good news.

When he saw her slip away like a wisp of smoke, he let out a light laugh. No one knew who was younger, but this year, Wan Ting's birthday was held in February, and he was older than her by seven years. However, his temper was even worse than hers, and he could not calm down for even a moment.

But it was also true that Wan Ting was actually 12 years old, how could she be like that? She had aged from the bottom of her heart, and did not look like a 5 year old, but it was hard for even the people of the Xu family to not find it strange, and calmly accepted it, as if she was born to be like this.
