Chapter 9(2/2)
Xu Miaoyin looked at Xu Jiaoyue. The strange feeling disappeared in a flash, but an inexplicable panic quickly rose in her heart. She quickly grabbed Xu Jiaoyue's hand, trying to calm her heart down, but found that she was in a tight grip.
The skin was a little rough, and when she was about to look through it, Xu Jiaoyue withdrew her hand.
"Sister, can you tell Qin Zhan for me?" Xu Jiaoyue's face turned a little red, and her voice seemed a little soft due to shyness.
"Hasn't he come to see you recently?" Xu Miaoyin asked as if she didn't care when she changed the topic.
"Well, he hasn't come to see me since you lost your temper last time." She said hesitantly.
"Okay, tell me, what do you want to say?" Xu Miaoyin asked with a smile. If you look carefully, you will find that her smile does not reach her eyes.
Xu Jiaoyue's eyes lit up, and she picked up the pen on the small table and started writing. After writing, she blew it, folded it carefully, and handed it to Xu Miaoyin.
Xu Miaoyin saw Xu Jiaoyue's handwriting and found that it was indeed Jiaojiao's handwriting. This made her doubtful mind feel at ease a little.
Seeing that there was nothing excessive in the letter, she just asked Qin Zhan to make her a riding whip, so she didn't say anything.
"Okay, you have a good rest, I'll go back first."
After saying that, he smiled at Xu Jiaoyue, as if to appease her, and left the room.
Yunxiang sent the master and servant to the door of Ling Yuexuan, but saw Xu Miaoyin slowly stopped, turned around and asked: "Yunxiang, why is your mistress's hand calloused? What has she been doing recently?"
Yunxiang lowered her head and said respectfully: "The girl has been playing with the whip recently. It is probably because of this that her hands have developed calluses."
Xu Miaoyin lowered her eyes and didn't ask any more questions. She just glanced at Yunxiang again before turning around and leaving Lingyuexuan.
Seeing that the person had gone away, Yunxiang breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and entered the room. Seeing that Xu Jiaoyue was still practicing calligraphy, she said: "You should be more careful next time, so as not to be suspected by Madam again!"
Xu Jiaoyue looked at Yunxiang expressionlessly, said "I know", then lowered her head to practice calligraphy again.
Xu Miaoyin stopped at the flower wall in the yard, looked at the most beautiful rose on the wall and said: "Yuchun, go and tell Uncle Song and invite a female teacher who teaches six arts to come to your house.
Give the second girl a lesson."
Yuchun said hesitantly: "But, girl, you are alone..."
"It's okay, you go ahead, I'll go back to Lanyin Courtyard." Xu Miaoyin still said gently and authentically.
Yuchun thought for a moment that this place was just around the corner from Lanyinyuan through the corridor, and then took the order.
After Yuchun left, Xu Miaoyin stood here for a long time before moving back to Lanyin Courtyard.
But when he returned to Lanyinyuan, he saw a person who should have been sent away.
Xiao Duo changed into clean boy's clothes, which he probably found temporarily. They were a bit too big. The sleeves and trouser legs were rolled up several times, making him look even thinner standing next to Qin Zhan.
The two of them stood on the corridor and saw Xu Miaoyin entering the courtyard with a graceful voice. They both saluted each other.
Seeing Xiao Duo salute gracefully, Xu Miaoyin asked Qin Zhan who was standing aside.
"Why is this boy following you?"
Qin Zhan looked at Xiao Duo and saw that he looked excited. He had a headache, but he still replied expressionlessly: "This young man didn't want to leave. He said he wanted to be an upright man, so he kept him.
Let him learn some boxing and kicking from me in the future."
So it turns out that this is a way to correct his evil ways. Fortunately, this young man is kind-hearted. As long as he is sincere, she is willing to give him a chance.
She looked at Xiao Duo. This young man was very thin, but only half a head shorter than her. Her words were gentle but solemn, "Xiao Duo, since you want to stay, you must study hard. If you are not sincere, you will be kicked out."
He’s out, you know?”
Seeing him nodding blankly, he returned to the room with a smile.
At the same time, in Yujing, inside the Rongguo Duke's mansion.
Zhang Yan held the secret letter he had just received in his hand and hurried to the study.
Zhang Yan entered the study and respectfully handed the secret letter to Fang Zhiyuan with both hands.
Fang Zhiyuan read the secret letter and burned it with a candle nearby. With an incomprehensible expression, he told Zhang Yan: "People have been put in, let them prepare!"
