Chapter 391 It’s really strange that Duke Shun Guo takes charge of the rear house.
I heard Zhou Pinqing talk about it when I was just having dinner, and I also knew that the Shunguo Palace was not to blame for falling into the water. Apart from the poor care of the maid Lanzhi who came with him, the biggest problem was that the child couldn't stop, so he ran around irritably. If you run, you will fall down.
"Mom, aunt, why don't you let Mingming stay at our house for a few days? Didn't Mr. Lanchuan say that he would wait until the results are released before going?"
For no reason, Chu Chu suddenly said this sentence, which even made her feel a little strange.
I just met Zhou Pinming today, and it was Mingming who stuck to her. It's just that Mingming is young and cute, and Chu Chu really likes her. Now she suddenly has such emotions, as if she really can't bear to leave her.
A child's feelings come so quickly that he can't even explain them clearly.
"This~"
Li Yan was also undecided. After all, he was shocked by the incident of falling into the water. Now that he had been rescued, it would be best to take the child back. He was worried about something going wrong again if he stayed in the house.
Webster is also used to looking at people's faces. He can tell how difficult someone is by looking at the expression of the Duke's wife. There is no reason for someone to help you take care of your child.
"Obey Mingming, you should go back. You see, Sister Chu Chu is less than a year older than you. She has become a disciple of Mr. Lan Chuan, and she also knows the medical skills of treating diseases and saving people. How can she have time to play with a monkey like you?"
"Well, then, Mingming also wants to learn. Whatever Chu Chu learns, I also want to learn. I can definitely learn it well."
Mingming's words made Qingqing laugh angrily: "How long have you been asked to write if I can win you? You haven't even written your name yet. How dare you compare with the legitimate daughter of Duke Shun, who is one of the best."
If Wei Shi was being polite, then what Zhou Pinqing said was a bit different. It sounded like they were looking down on people, but they were unwilling to keep people.
"You kid, you have no right to speak. Hurry and go to the front and ask your father to come over and persuade me."
Wei Shi looked at his eldest daughter, his eyes a little burning. He knew that Zhou Pinqing was not a bad character, but he always had a strong nature and always spoke without thinking. It happened that her husband had gone somewhere at this time. Maybe it was because he was a female family member. Sorry, I didn't follow up.
But she couldn't bear to get angry in front of Li Yan, she just wanted to send Zhou Pinqing away as soon as possible.
In fact, Li Yan could also tell that Zhou Pinqing's words were blurted out without thinking. He also knew that the seven-year-old child had no bad intentions, but he still had a competitive spirit, so he didn't care.
"Mom, if Mingming is really obedient and calms down, can I study with my sister and Lan Hui?"
Hearing that there was room for retention in Chu Chu's words, Li Yan refused directly: "How can that be done!"
Li Yan felt relieved that his twin sons would be able to study in the Imperial College after the new year! From now on, she just wants to be filial to her mother-in-law and take care of Chu Chu, but she doesn't want to cause any more trouble.
She took Lan Hui in out of morality and was entrusted by others. She was not so kind to other people.
She likes Mingming very much, she is lively and cute, mainly Chuchu also likes to play with her.
But as soon as this was opened, and Zhou Pinming was involved, looking at Zhou Pinqing's behavior, he might make trouble again, and it would be difficult to deal with it.
"If Mingming likes sister, she can play here for a few days, but she must go back after the ranking is opened. Sister Xiumu can also come over to play in the future, but girls still have to go back at night."
Li Yan's words calmed down the atmosphere, and Mingming exposed her little head on the bed. She didn't make any fuss and said she wasn't going home, but she also found a reason for her stay: "My aunt said I can stay for a few days. Mother will pick me up in a few days."
Wei Shi looked at Li Yan apologetically: "Madam, I'm sorry for bothering you. I'll sell the little maid when I get back later, and replace her with a more dedicated woman to keep this skinny monkey safe."
After all, Wei Shi was still a little selfish. There was a gap between the Shunguo Duke's Palace and the Guangluqing Palace, and the father-in-law had no real power, so the Guangluqing Palace was just an empty show.
Her sister, Mrs. Xiao Qi, married into the famous General Qi Palace, but her brother-in-law’s official position was much lower than that of the General. There was no way for her to gain a foothold in the court. The actual situation was similar to theirs, so she naturally I want to have some relationship with Duke Shunguo.
It's okay to take shelter under the big tree. It would be best if Zhou Zhi could lift it up again if there was a chance.
"But Chu Chu still wants Mingming to come to our house to study!"
Li Yan was speechless at what Chu Chu said again. He finally agreed that he was just here to play, but why did he go to study in the mansion again?
"If Chuchu likes it, let Mingming and the others come over to play often! It doesn't hurt for the female teacher to teach one or two more. Children learn quickly when they have company, so the house will be lively."
Unexpectedly, Zhou Pinqing went over to call her father, and Duke Shun just came over after seeing off the guests. Hearing Chu Chu's words at the door, he actually agreed without Li Yan's discussion.
This made Li Yan very unhappy. Normally, the Duke rarely cares about the affairs of the back house. I don't know what happened this time.
Zhou Zhiye was just a small fifth-grade civil servant, and he had no benefit to the Shunguo Duke's government. He didn't need to make friends at all. What else could he not control?
But she didn't show it in the end. She still had to give this bit of face to her husband, mainly because she listened to what Duke Shun Guo said: "Chu Chu likes it."
Although the husband is now a slave to his daughter, his daughter's ideas are never wrong, but her mind can't think about it in detail.
It turns out that she didn't agree because she was afraid of trouble. If it was nothing serious and would benefit her daughter and husband, she wouldn't be able to accept it. Anyway, there weren't many troubles in the house, and there wasn't anything she couldn't solve now.
Zhou Zhi was naturally very happy that his two daughters could study in Shunguo Duke's Mansion, and he also knew that it was equivalent to allowing his daughters to enter a circle with a higher threshold.
He quickly saluted and thanked Duke Shun and his wife.
It took Mingming a while to understand that their conversation was that she agreed to come into the mansion to study, and then she could see Chu Chu every day.
Zhou Pinqing was naturally happy as well. She envied her cousin Hongying for being able to frequently enter and leave Shun Guo Gongfu and several aristocratic families. Naturally, she knew that she would be able to learn more in the future by getting involved with Shun Guo Gongfu. It was quite a treat to have such contact with Shun Guo Gongfu. There are also more opportunities for family status.
She has a lot to think about at a young age, but Li Yan knows that it is better for her daughter to grow up if she is exposed to peers with different personalities.
The Zhou family's background is not too low, they just want to take one or two steps forward, and there is no deliberate intention.
