Chapter 27: A Good Student With a Disability
On the way back, Qiu asked strangely: "What does Yu Xi mean? Why do you have to buy a maid from outside?"
Mother Li said with a smile: "The maidservants in the mansion have a complicated relationship. Why don't you go outside and find a maidservant with a clean background, who will be easy to use later on." The girl must have hated Aunt Rong and Yu Jing. The fourth girl is no longer the submissive child she used to be, and she doesn't know what she will do. Mother Li sometimes finds it unbelievable, but she has changed so much after being ill.
The doctor's medicine was very good, and the swelling in Yuxi's feet subsided the next day, but because the doctor said that she would need to lie in bed for a few days to recover, so the maids around her wouldn't let her get out of bed. Yuxi thought about going to school tomorrow, so she ordered Shen's mother to find four rough envoys to take her to Yulanyuan tomorrow.
Shen's mother persuaded Yuxi and said: "Girl, studying is important, but legs are more important. It's not too late to go when the legs are better."
Yuxi said: "Mr. Song's one day of teaching is equivalent to four or five days for other teachers. Do you think I can keep up with my legs?" I can't keep up with my homework after a day, let alone a few days. She won't give up the opportunity she has come so easily.
Mo Ju said anxiously, "Girl, but your legs can't walk, and you won't be able to attend the class even if you go to class!"
Yuxi laughed and said: "I hurt my leg, not my head and hands, so why can't I attend class?" She can't walk or hug her, and lying on a soft couch is the safest thing to do.
Mrs. Han and Qiu Shi have no objection to Yuxi's decision. It is a good thing that the child is willing to make progress, and the adults will stop it.
On the second day, Yuxi was carried to Yulan Garden.
Mr. Song came back in the morning and didn't know about Yuxi's leg injury. Hearing that Yu Xi was being carried over, she immediately walked out. Just in time to see Yuxi being carried by Mother Shen and put on a chair, she stepped forward and asked, "Miss Si, what's wrong with your leg?"
Yuxi explained with some embarrassment: "Sir, I accidentally sprained my foot yesterday. The doctor said that I can't move, and I can't salute my husband. Please forgive me." The reason for her injury, Mr. Song, can be inquired from other channels, but Can't get it out of her mouth.
Mr. Song glanced at Yu Xi unexpectedly. She has been teaching for so many years, and many girls can't stand her teaching method and introduce it for various reasons, such as illness or injury, but it is the first time to bring an injury to the class: "In that case, you should take good care of her." , why do you still come to school?"
Yuxi said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up with my homework. Besides, I just hurt my leg, which doesn't hinder the class, but I can't finish the homework assigned by my husband. However, when my leg gets better, I will definitely make it up. "It's okay to endorse or something, but it's not enough to write so many words.
Mr. Song looked very good and said, "It's okay."
In class, Mr. Song didn't stop Yuxi from reciting the text because of her leg injury. Fortunately, Yuxi didn't get lazy because of her leg injury, otherwise she would have to be beaten. It's embarrassing to say, Yuxi has already been slapped once.
During the break, Mo Ju saw Mr. Song walk out of the classroom and rushed into the classroom like an arrow. Looking at Yuxi who was packing up her things, she hurriedly asked, "Girl, does your leg hurt?"
Yuxi smiled and said: "I'm fine." Except for writing slower, it's the same as usual.
Thinking of this, Yuxi said to Yuchen: "Sister San, can I borrow your notes to read?" The writing was slow and couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the husband.
Yuchen smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll give it to you after class is over." Because Yuxi went to school with injuries, Yuchen was very satisfied with her, and Yuxi's behavior proved that the girls in the Duke's Mansion are not that weak.
After class, Mr. Song said to Yuxi: "You can rest in the next room at noon, so you don't have to go back and forth."
Yuxi knew that although the room next to her was simple and crude,
But there is a kang in the house, so just spread the bedding and say, "Thank you, sir." Mr. Song still has some human touch.
Not long after lunch, Mrs. Ding told Mr. Song what she had heard: "The fourth girl didn't fall and hurt her leg, but the second girl pushed her on the ground and sprained it."
Mr. Song let out a cold snort, there was really no cure. Mr. Song thought of one thing and asked, "Why did the fourth girl change her temperament so much?" What he heard and what he saw was so different, Mr. Song couldn't help but become suspicious.
Mrs. Ding hesitated for a moment, and whispered to Mr. Song: "Miss Si had smallpox on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Mrs. Han called away the doctor who saw Miss Si on the way. People in the Duke's Mansion said that Miss Si had a hard life, and she would die no matter what. No."
Mr. Song asked: "Tell me clearly, what's going on?"
Mrs. Ding told the news back and forth: "The fourth girl used to be cowardly and cowardly, and she didn't say anything when she was bullied. But after she got smallpox, her temperament changed drastically. That's why the news we got was so different from the reality. access."
Mr. Song's face was not very good-looking: "There is still such a partiality." For the sake of his grandson, he can ignore his granddaughter's life. Such an elder is really chilling. After going through such a thing, it is normal for the fourth girl's temperament to change drastically.
Mrs. Ding is actually a little worried. The third girl grew up in front of the old lady. If she also learns from the old lady Han in how she behaves, she will not be beautiful: "Sir, the third girl is one in a million in appearance and talent. There is only such a grandmother. I'm afraid that the third girl will also be affected."
Mr. Song shook his head and said, "Third Miss is still young, even if she is influenced by Mrs. Han, she will have limited influence. As long as I teach her well, there will be no problem. But Fourth Miss..." After a pause, Mr. Song asked softly "Does the fourth girl know about the doctor's matter or not?" Mr. Song asked this question because servants would help to conceal some things.
Mrs. Ding said: "I must know. I heard from my mother-in-law that the day the doctor didn't come was the day the fourth girl woke up." Even if the fourth girl was so ill at that time, someone would have told her afterwards.
Mr. Song fell into deep thought.
Mrs. Ding said again: "Sir, after the fourth girl recovered from her illness, the old madam sent away the mother in charge left by her biological mother. Now the mother in charge and a personal maid of the Rose House belong to the old lady."
Mr. Song's complexion changed slightly, Mrs. Han's behavior was too much: "How did the fourth girl settle down with her mother in charge?" Looking at Yuxi's behavior, she should not ignore the mother in charge.
Mrs. Ding said with some emotion: "The buns made by this mother are delicious, and the fourth girl opened a bun shop for her. I heard that the business is very good, and now I can earn thirty or forty taels of silver a month! I heard that All the money was given to the fourth girl." In name, it was a steamed stuffed bun shop for the mother in charge, but in fact it was to earn private money for herself.
Mr. Song said in a low voice: "When you say that, I don't see Miss Four well."
Mrs. Ding also felt that Yuxi made her a little scared: "Yeah, it's really not easy for a child who just became governor to behave so calmly when he encountered such an unfair thing." Her master is also precocious, but Not as scary as the fourth girl,
Mr. Song also felt that Yuxi was a little too precocious, but thinking about what happened to her, it was not difficult to understand: "Judging from the fact that she is in charge of her mother, Miss Si is quite good-natured."
Yuxi didn't know that Mr. Song and Mrs. Ding were talking about her at this time. At this time she just woke up, Yuxi didn't take a long nap, she only slept for a quarter of an hour, and woke up at that time.
Yuxi used to write big characters when she had time after nap, but today she couldn't write big characters, so she endorsed it instead. Because it was not in my yard, the voice of the endorsement was lowered. But no matter how low the voice was, it could not escape the eyes and ears of the maids in the yard.
When Mrs. Ding heard Yuxi's voice of endorsement, she asked Mr. Song: "Will Mr. Si take Miss Four as a student?" Although Yuxi behaved very well, Mrs. Ding felt that Yuxi was thinking too much.
Mr. Song did not answer the question. Yuxi's talent is not bad, and she is also very hardworking, but there is still a big gap compared with Yuchen.
Yuxi's legs took ten days to heal.
After class was over that day, Mr. Song did not leave immediately, but asked Yuchen and Yuxi to stay and gave them a schedule.
Yuxi looked at the schedule, which read: learning musical instruments in the morning; learning calligraphy and listening to lectures in the morning; learning chess and painting in the afternoon.
Mr. Song looked at Yuxi and said, "Fourth girl, which musical instrument are you going to learn?" The third girl has already learned the piano and there is no need to choose any more, but Yuxi has never touched a musical instrument.
Yuxi shook her head and said, "Sir, I don't know which musical instrument to choose?" She had never touched a musical instrument in her previous life, so she chose it randomly, so why not ask Mr. Song to help her choose.
Mr. Song thought for a while and said, "Then you choose Guzheng!"
Yuxi is not very interested in musical instruments, but since her husband wants to teach her, she will definitely not refuse. People like them, even if they are not proficient in music theory, they still have to understand.
Yuchen said: "Sir, I still want to learn the flute again." It's too monotonous to only learn the piano art, and you have to learn at least two to be able to do it.
Mr. Song shook his head and said, "First master the art of piano, and then learn other instruments." There are many arts, but there must be one who is proficient in one.
Yuchen nodded.
Mr. Song said before leaving: "Starting today, you insist on writing one hundred characters every day. You don't have to hand it over to me after you finish writing." This means that whether you write or not is entirely up to you, but Mr. Song is not worried. The two are lazy.
