Chapter 42

Before Rong Lanxue could answer, Sister Zhu yelled loudly, "Zhiyuan!"

"Not big or small!" Rong Lanxue glared at her.

Sister Zhu quickly changed her words: "Brother Zhiyuan!"

Rong Lanxue vaguely felt that this title was too affectionate and a little inappropriate, but thinking that sister Zhu was only six years old and didn't know anything about the world, she didn't make a sound and let her go.

Jiang Zhiyuan joked, "Since you call me brother, then Xue'er should call me brother too."

"Brother Jiang." The corners of Rong Lanxue's lips were smiling, but her voice was flat and without waves, unlike sister Zhu's melodious and long cry, which still lingered.

Jiang Zhiyuan was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head and laughed at himself.When he raised his head again, Rong Lanxue had already moved forward, but sister Zhu was still holding his arm and waiting for him.He quickly regained his senses and chased after him.

In Lanyuan, Lianxiang was anxiously waiting under the eaves, and Lanxue didn't bother to pursue her past mistakes, so she just said: "You go back, and change to Qiuli and Yupan to serve."

Yupan is a newly bought maidservant who has just finished training.There were so many things Lianxiang wanted to say to her, but she didn't expect to wait for this sentence before she opened her mouth, so she stomped her feet angrily, and went back to Zhiyuan to call for someone.

Rong Lanxue called a little servant girl from the Rong residence and told her to get the ointment for bruises. Probably Rong Tiancheng had specially ordered her to do so. The little girl ran very fast, took the medicine in a short while, and told Rong Lanxue flatteringly , this is the best medicine in Fuchu.

Rong Lanxue took it over and took a look. The medicine was contained in a porcelain box, and it was piece by piece. It was very convenient to take it out and stick it directly on the wound.She held the medicine box in her hand, and was about to ask the little maid who fetched the medicine to help Jiang Zhiyuan paste it, but Sister Zhu snatched the medicine box over and said with a smile, "I'll help brother Zhiyuan paste it."

Men and women can't kiss each other!This is a job to undress, not like climbing an arm.Rong Lanxue's face darkened, and she was about to blame her.Jiang Zhiyuan smiled, and said: "My injury is on my shoulder, if I can fix it myself, I won't bother Miss Zhu."

Luckily, he was sensible and didn't let Sister Zhu mess around at a young age. Rong Lanxue breathed a sigh of relief, snatched the medicine box without reason, handed it to Jiang Zhiyuan, and asked the maid to lead him to the front yard to apply the medicine.

Sister Zhu saw Rong Lanxue's uneasy expression, she was very aggrieved, she held her mouth and said, "Eldest sister, I'm still young, what can I do for brother Zhiyuan to apply the medicine?"

Probably she always said the words "I'm still young" to make everyone let her go, so she developed a temper that is not afraid of anything.Rong Lanxue couldn't help laughing: "I didn't think it was a big deal at first, but it's because you reminded me?"

"Because of me?" Sister Zhu's eyes widened.

Rong Lanxue nodded, and said: "Fortunately, when you talked about Sister Jiang and her cousin in the private school just now, I was alerted to it. My behavior when I was young will also affect me when I grow up. You If you protect me like this, how can I let you go and let you be criticized in the future?"

Although Sister Zhu was a bit arrogant, but her mind was right, she understood that Rong Lanxue was treating her well, her eyes turned red immediately, and she threw herself into her arms, saying: "Eldest sister, besides my aunt, you are the only one who is willing You have said these things to me, and this must be the honest advice you have spoken to me.”

Rong Lanxue laughed again, patted her on the back, and said, "Yes, that's honest advice, it's hard for you to understand."

Jiang Zhiyuan only looked at Lanxue with a smile, and said, "I promised your eldest sister that if I want to teach her to read and write, I can't say nothing."

Seeing that he didn't go, sister Zhu was extremely disappointed and ran away pouting.

Rong Lanxue shook her head with a smile, opened the copybook, and dipped the pen into the ink. She had also learned brush calligraphy for two years before time travel, so she held the pen decently.

Jiang Zhiyuan stood behind her, watching intently, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but his brows wrinkled as he watched.

Seeing that there was no movement behind, Rong Lanxue looked back and saw him like this, she couldn't help laughing: "Since you want to teach me how to write, just say it doesn't look good, what's the point of frowning?"

"Where, you wrote..." Jiang Zhiyuan originally wanted to give a few words of encouragement, but after thinking for a long time, he didn't know what words to use to describe it.Rong Lanxue's handwriting looks almost like a caterpillar.

Rong Lanxue couldn't help laughing again, she was extremely calm and showed no sign of embarrassment, but the teacher Jiang Zhiyuan blushed and was embarrassed, so she quickly took a wolf hair, dipped it in thick ink, raised the pen and hung her wrist, and looked at Rong Lanxue. A few words were written on the piece of paper in front of Lan Xue.

When Rong Lanxue saw that his writing was as smooth as flowing clouds and flowing water, she knew that he had extraordinary skills. When she waited to see it, she saw a few elegant and elegant lowercase characters jumping out of the paper, just like his handsome and upright appearance.How many years does it take to reach this level?Rong Lanxue was envious, and urged Jiang Zhiyuan to teach her quickly.

Jiang Zhiyuan patiently explained the structure of the pen holder to her, which was much better than her own writing.One of the two was willing to learn, the other was happy to teach, and the morning passed without knowing it.

At noon, Rong Lanxue expressed his gratitude and stayed with Jiang Zhiyuan for lunch in Lanyuan, Jiang Zhiyuan did not refuse.In the afternoon, the boys will continue to study with Mr. Liu, while the girls will learn needlework from the embroiderer.The two arrived at the private school together, one went to the downstairs classroom, and the other went upstairs to the embroidery room.

In the embroidery room, as soon as the ladies saw Rong Lanxue enter, they began to wink and whisper.Rong Lanxue ignored them lazily, and only went to look for Sister Zhu, but she didn't expect that Sister Zhu was not there, so she asked Xiu Niang, and it turned out that she was still going to study after arguing, and she was downstairs with the young masters.

When did she love reading so much?Surprised, Rong Lanxue found the embroidery frame with her name engraved on it, and sat down.Compared with reading and writing, needlework girls are what Rong Lanxue relies on for survival, so she listens very carefully and treats her mother with respect.

These young ladies are masters who don't even look down on their husbands, who has ever treated Xiu Niang like this, so that Xiu Niang taught Rong Lanxue with all her heart, from time to time she gave some pointers to Rong Lanxue alone.

After half a day, Rong Lanxue gained a lot. She felt that she was really a frog in a well. As long as she learned a few times systematically from Xiu Niang, she would definitely be able to make better shoes. The 100 taels of silver from the Jinxiu shoe store , she earned it.

After school, Fu Rong waited downstairs in the private school, waiting for Rong Lanxue, saying that Rong Tiancheng was welcome.Everyone knew that it was because of the second aunt being smashed, and everyone showed gloating expressions, only sister Zhu was indignant.Jiang Zhiyuan proposed to go with Rong Lanxue to testify, but Fu Rong refused.

Rong Lanxue smiled at him and sister Zhu, indicating that she would be fine, and then followed Fu Rong to Rong Tiancheng's study.

Walking into the fortified study room of the suite room again, Rong Lanxue felt very funny. As Rong Tiancheng's biological daughter, every time she saw her father, she would always be in this secret room. If you want to, you have to hide and say it.

After interacting with Rong Lanxue a few times, Rong Tiancheng also gradually understood her temper. As soon as she sat down, he asked straight to the point about Second Aunt's injury.Rong Lanxue told the truth without embellishment at all, and finally emphasized that she was right in hitting someone, but she was wrong in not holding the heavy inkstone.

Unexpectedly, Rong Tiancheng laughed after hearing this, and said: "You are the eldest daughter of my Rong family, and the second aunt is just a concubine. How can you compare her status to your dignity? Let alone the inkstone, even if you hit her with a stool, There's nothing wrong with it either. I'm just worried that your behavior will spread to the outside world, and it will be bad for your reputation, after all, everyone still prefers more docile and well-behaved girls."

Although she was surprised by Rong Tiancheng's partiality, the words were indeed to the point. As long as she still chose to live in the world of mortals, she would inevitably care about other people's opinions, but the situation was critical at that time, so how could she care so much.Rong Lanxue thought for a while and said, "My reputation is certainly important, but compared to Miss Zhu's appearance, it's still inferior."

Rong Tiancheng also heard about the fact that Second Concubine wanted to grab Sister Zhu's face at that time, but now seeing Rong Lanxue mentioning it again, his expression darkened, and he said, "I will punish Second Concubine."

Rong Lanxue squatted down and wanted to leave.But Rong Tiancheng called her to stop, and said in a very embarrassed way: "Xue'er, I beg you to do something, can you go to Jiang's house with your mother, apologize to the wife, and persuade her to go home?"

Rong Lanxue couldn't believe that Rong Tiancheng would make such a request, and was momentarily stunned.

Rong Tiancheng thought she was seriously thinking about it, and continued to insist: "Look, since the wife left, the house has been in a mess, Second Aunt dared to rush into the private school to beat people, if she doesn't come back, there will be chaos What is it like? There is also our family's business. Without the relationship of my wife, the cooperation with the Jiang family will be extremely weak, and the Jiang family may withdraw their shares at any time. They are the local snakes in Linjiang County, without their support , our family’s business can’t go on at all, how can we support this big family? Xue’er, you should just do your father’s favor and go to accompany your wife and let her come back.” Rong Tiancheng knew very well that Ye Shi is soft-hearted, as long as Rong Lanxue let go, Ye Shi will naturally do what he wants, so he only called Rong Lanxue here to persuade her.

How thick-skinned it must be to make such a request, Rong Lanxue laughed back angrily: "Father, we have been abandoned for more than ten years, and we don't know that we still have mistakes! I admit that I don't hate the Jiang family, Because she is also a victim, the only one at fault in this matter is you! If you want to say an apology, the person who should go is you, not me and my mother. If you want to bring Jiang back, I have no problem, and you can even call She said Ma'am, but I will never say this unwarranted apology!"

Almost every time Rong Tiancheng asked Rong Lanxue to come to the study, he would have an unpleasant fight with her. Now seeing her making unfilial and disobedient remarks, he was very annoyed. As if suddenly remembering something, he put his hand down.

Rong Lanxue took the opportunity to leave, but Rong Tiancheng turned his face and asked gently: "It's the first time I went to school today, what did you do? How do you get along with your brothers and sisters?"

Rong Lanxue still wanted to learn embroidery from that embroiderer, but she didn't want to have a complete quarrel with Rong Tiancheng, so she stopped and answered truthfully.

When Rong Tiancheng heard that she was learning to write from Jiang Zhiyuan, he smiled with satisfaction, waved her to go back, and never asked her to apologize to Jiang.

Rong Lanxue returned to Zhiyuan, angrily told Ye Shi about Rong Tiancheng's plan, and forced her to swear that she would not be soft-hearted for a moment and apologize to Jiang Shi.It is true that Mrs. Ye is in love with Rong Tiancheng, but she does not have a good impression of Mrs. Jiang. Besides, because she is in love with Rong Tiancheng, she does not want to have a wife by his side. She will be happy if Mrs. Jiang does not come back, so she is very happy. He readily swore an oath.

The next day, Rong Lanxue went to the Rongfu Private School as before, sitting with Jiang Zhiyuan just like the day before, but to her surprise, all the gossip and winking disappeared overnight. Sister Jiang and Sister Fei looked as usual, but they turned their heads to look at Jiang Zhiyuan from time to time, with shy expressions.

Could this be the credit of Rong Tiancheng?Rong Lanxue was very surprised, so she took the time between classes to ask Sister Zhu, but Sister Zhu told her quietly that it was because Sister Qing sent someone to beat them in private.

Sister Qing is now the Jiang family's representative in Rong's residence, and everyone will naturally try to save face if she says so.Rong Lanxue was very clear about the reasoning, but Sister Qing's purpose made her very suspicious, but Sister Zhu was not very clear about this matter, so she had to go back to her seat and make another plan.
