Chapter 7: I Met My Brother
Gu looked at her with a smile, "It turns out that Shen Yatou has read so many books, she is really talented and beautiful." ”
Shen Yatou shouted very intimately, Shen Qiao Anxin didn't like it, and lowered his head slightly, "The eldest lady praised it falsely, Qiao An is just a country girl, and she can't afford the praise of the eldest lady, just call me Qiao An." ”
Gu Shi twisted his eyebrows slightly, and felt wrong about this sentence, but he saw that she was very ashamed, and only thought that she was a daughter's thin-skinned family, so he let go of his suspicions again.
Li on the side took over, "Mrs. Shen's age is similar to that of sister-in-law Qingliu, why don't you go to school with Qingliu?" ”
The Great Zhao Dynasty was heavy on martial arts, but the first emperor's punishment of the clan was too brutal, which made the scholars afraid of entering the court as officials, resulting in a lack of talents in the court in those years, so the emperor attached great importance to literati after ascending the throne. Any family with children will grit their teeth and send their children to private schools, not to mention the children of powerful officials.
Nowadays, the nobles have very high requirements for their daughters, and they must be proficient in at least one subject, and have talents, so that they will have the opportunity to shine at various banquets in the future and broaden their social circle.
In addition, poetry and books are indispensable, such as the "Female Commandment", the Four Books and the Five Classics, etc., which must be more or less dabbled in. Those with higher attainments will read more obscure books such as the Tao Te Ching.
When Shen Qiaoan mentioned that the book he read had "Tao Te Ching", Gu and Li felt that this girl was extremely talented in talent, so Li proposed to send her to school.
The Gu family naturally would not refuse, if Shen Qiaoan was cultivated well, marrying a good family in the future would also be beneficial and harmless to the Changning Hou Mansion.
Without waiting for Shen Qiaoan to reply, Ji Qingliu rushed to reply for her, "Mother, Sister Shen is so smart, how can she not go to school?" ”
Shen Qiao'an was puzzled by her inexplicable enthusiasm at the moment and glanced at her.
I saw Ji Qingliu's eyebrows raised, and the corners of his eyes were cunning.
Recalling that in her previous life, Ji Qingliu excluded and suppressed her in the school, sowing discord between her and other noble girls, and even secretly tearing up her homework in private, Shen Qiaoan understood.
The weasel greets the chickens for the New Year - uneasy and kind.
Seeing that the youngest daughter was so knowledgeable, Gu Shi also nodded in agreement, smiled and looked at Shen Qiao'an again, "What does Shen girl think?" ”
Shen Qiaoan naturally would not refuse, the school is the best shortcut to meet the nobles, and it is also the best place to shine.
"Qiao Ann listens to Mrs., and it is Qiao An's blessing to be able to go to school with her fourth sister."
Gu Shi smiled back, "Where, where." Shen Niangzi's knowledge and knowledge are much stronger than Qingliu's, and it is her blessing to be able to enroll with you. ”
Shen Qiaoan pursed her lips, "Madame praised it, Qiao An is new to the city, so she should learn more from the fourth sister." ”
After that, she glanced at Ji Qingliu meaningfully.
Ji Qingliu did not dodge, but boldly looked at her, and the provocation in his eyes was obvious.
She is the youngest daughter of the Gu family, and the Gu family loves her the most on weekdays, but today they belittle her for Shen Qiaoan, Ji Qingliu is both aggrieved and resentful in her heart.
In the mansion, Shen Qiaoan has the protection of the Gu family and others, and she can't face to face, but when she arrives at the school, she is alone.
Thinking of this, Ji Qingliu suddenly felt a lot better, and his eyes became more and more smug when he looked at Shen Qiaoan.
"When you get to the school, Qingliu will have to learn from Shen Yatou and change your arrogant temperament." Gu's words were said to Ji Qingliu, but his eyes were on Shen Qiaoan.
Everyone knows what it means.
Shen Qiaoan naturally knew that this was Gu's warning to her, and the meaning of asking her to take care of Ji Qingliu.
She pretended not to know what she meant, and smiled, "What did Madam say, if there is really anything bad about the fourth sister's temperament, it is also a matter for the masters, how can Qiao An interfere?" ”
Gu's smile froze slightly, and then returned to his normal color, "What Shen Yatou said is that I was negligent." ”
The corners of Shen Qiao'an's lips were curved, and his smile was shallow, as if he recognized Gu's words.
Li glanced at Shen Qiao'an as if unintentionally, and saw that she pursed her lips and was silent, as if she didn't smell the smell of cannonballs.
"Okay, sister-in-law, Qingliu girl is just a little innocent and lively in front of us, who let us spoil it." Li pinched his handkerchief and covered his mouth and snickered, breaking the stiff atmosphere.
"Not long ago, I heard that Qingliu's paintings in the school were appreciated by the master, which shows that Qingliu is still very well-behaved and studious in the school."
Li handed over the steps, and Gu's face eased slightly.
Ji Qingliu was also very embarrassed at this time, although she knew that the Gu family was towards her, but Shen Qiaoan's appearance of not being salty or salty made her hate itchy.
"Mother rest assured, my daughter knows the measure, as for Sister Shen, she only needs to take care of herself, and it would be good not to lose face to our Changning Hou Mansion."
The words were very arrogant, Gu coughed, don't look over her head and glance at her, "I just said you, why did you start to get carried away at this time?" ”
Ji Qingliu was slightly smiling, pulling Gu's arm, and said coquettishly, "Mother, I'm just joking with Sister Shen." ”
After that, she looked at Shen Qiao'an, "Sister Shen is so generous, she must not be angry." ”
