Mwah.
Perhaps it was because he was worried that he had to check Li Yue's homework.
Li Xunhuan was not as drunk as before, but he did not drink much either.
When Li Yue finished practicing her calligraphy for four hours and handed in her homework to Li Tanhua,
Li Xunhuan, who was still a little drunk, saw Li Yue's incomplete dog-style traditional characters, and his drunkenness instantly disappeared. His gaze moved back and forth between Li Yue's beautiful face and the twisted and ugly characters on the rice paper.
After a long while, he asked a few questions with difficulty.
"Xiao Yue... have you... been to a primary school before?
Has anyone... opened it for you? "
A primary school was almost equivalent to a kindergarten or primary school in modern society. Asking a child if they had opened it was equivalent to asking the child if they could read and write.
Li Yue had worked hard in society for many years after graduating from her undergraduate degree.
She could answer Li Xunhuan's question confidently.
However, before she could say anything, fragments of memories about the original owner of this body appeared in her mind.
They appeared bit by bit.
In a low and neat old house, a couple with blurry faces were smiling and talking to a child in their arms.
The wife was humming a lullaby.
The husband held the child's hand and taught him how to read stroke by stroke. The family of three lived a very poor but happy life.
These images flashed back and forth like a merry-go-round.
However, the last image that appeared.
It was the strong reluctance in the eyes of the couple with ashen faces, as well as their quietly drooping arms.
Li Yue stood there in a daze. Tears flowed uncontrollably.
Before she could raise her hand to wipe away her tears,
Li Xunhuan had already taken the little girl into his arms.
He gently stroked her head.
"Sorry, it's my fault."
"No... it's not your fault. It's my... problem..."
Li Yue sobbed as she explained to Li Xunhuan. However, a child's self-control was too poor. She finally held back her tears. Li Xunhuan hugged and patted her, and the original owner of the body and her own negative emotions gushed out like a flood. Li Yue had no choice but to grab Li Xunhuan's clothes and cry.
Tanhua Lang's body always had the fragrance of plum blossoms. It usually smelled cold and quiet, but now it was mixed with the smell of old wine. It was especially intoxicating.
Li Yue's physical strength was low to begin with. After crying for a while, she fell asleep while smelling the smell.
Li Xunhuan, whose internal strength was far superior to that of ordinary people, naturally noticed that the little girl's breathing had calmed down. However, he was not only a martial arts expert, but also a level ten person with a disability in life. He did not know what to do with the sleeping Li Yue. On the other hand, the golden nanny, Tie Chuanjia, could not stand it. She took the little girl and brought her back to her room.
Li Xunhuan could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
Tie Chuanjia had just left the study when Uncle Fu pushed the door open and entered. He looked at the adult and child in the distance, and a smile appeared on his weather-beaten face. Then, he turned to Li Xunhuan and asked softly,
"Young master, allow this old man to take the liberty to ask … what are you planning to do?"
Li Xunhuan was a smart person. He naturally understood the meaning behind Uncle Fu's words. Half a year ago, when he had just arrived at the courtyard, he did not care about anything. Everything, no matter how big or small, was thrown to Tie Chuanjia and Uncle Fu. Every day, he only cared about his life in a drunken stupor. It seemed that as long as there was wine, he could isolate himself from the world.
If he wanted to muddle through his life, that was Li Xunhuan's own business. Uncle Fu had no right to interfere. However, Li Xunhuan had never revealed what Li Yue's identity was.
The child had been in an awkward situation ever since she arrived at the courtyard. She had come with Li Xunhuan and had been living in the servant's room. She was treated like a guest, and the servants in the courtyard did not know how to address her.
Fortunately, the child was not like other children. She enjoyed herself every day and never complained about how she was treated.
Uncle Fu had seen all these trivial matters. He knew that Li Yue was a good child. It just so happened that Li Xunhuan's mood was not so bad and his mind was also clear. He could not help but ask a few more questions.
Li Xunhuan muttered to himself for a moment and then shook his head with a bitter smile.
"I … am really a terrible person. Naturally, I should not implicate others.
As for Xiao Yue, although she is young, she has her own way of doing things … whatever she wants to do, she can do it. "
As soon as Li Xunhuan finished speaking, Uncle Fu immediately followed his advice. "Young master, regarding Little Miss, do you plan to personally teach Little Miss how to read, or do you plan to invite a teacher to teach Little Miss in the courtyard? Or do you plan to find a school for Little Miss in Shuo Province?"
"School?"
"Young master, the outside of the Great Wall is not like the Central Plains. Since ancient times, people have been valiant.
Little Miss is at the age where she likes to play. Because you like peace and quiet, there are not many people in the courtyard. Naturally, Little Miss is not around the same age as Little Miss, so Little Miss is usually alone. No one wants to play with her. "
"Alright … let Xiao Yue go to school in Shuo Province."
At that time, Li Yue did not know that she was going to the city to learn. When she woke up, she practiced her writing as usual. After four hours, she immediately threw down her brush and quit.
A week later, a carriage was brought in front of her. When the little girl got on the carriage, her face was full of excitement. She thought that the people in the courtyard were taking her to Shuo Province to play, but the reality was not as she imagined.
The carriage really did stop in Shuo Province. Uncle Fu brought the little girl dressed as a boy to the entrance of a small courtyard.
Before they entered, Li Yue had an ominous premonition in her heart. When they really crossed the stairs, Li Yue saw a group of little people sitting in the classroom shaking their heads. Among them, there were a few who looked younger than her.
Li Yue looked at Uncle Fu in disbelief. Uncle Fu's face had a kind smile that she was very familiar with. It made Li Yue think of the group of old men and old women with their grandsons and granddaughters that she met during rush hour. She silently prepared to step back, but Uncle Fu firmly held her hand. Li Yue looked at the gate again. The big brother who drove the carriage blocked the gate with a simple and honest face.
At this moment, Li Yue knew that she was going to attend this ancient kindergarten.
In order to make it easier for Li Yue to go to school, Uncle Fu specially bought a large courtyard near the inner school of Shuo Province. He also hired more than ten servants and guards. The expenses could not be said to be small.
At first, Li Yue was curious as to why Li Xunhuan would agree with Uncle Fu. But a few days later, she saw Tie Chuanjia helping the drunk Li Xunhuan into the courtyard. Tanhua Lang's valuable jade pendant was still missing. When Tie Chuanjia went out again to find the jade pendant, Li Yue learned that Tanhua Lang had pawned the jade pendant at the restaurant.
Li Yue: I'm so angry. I also want to be a rich person who doesn't have any concept of spending money.
The (young) Mongolian (kindergarten) was more boring than Li Yue imagined. Other than studying, it was also practicing calligraphy. The teachers were even less likely to play games with the children like modern kindergarten teachers. Therefore, during recess, Li Yue would usually lie on the table and sleep.
Li Yue didn't pay much attention to the little ones in her class, but the little ones in her class were very curious about her.
In terms of appearance, no one in the school was more outstanding than Li Yue. In terms of studying, although she came late, her learning speed was the fastest in the school. In terms of practicing calligraphy, her handwriting was also the worst in the school. Therefore, among the children, Li Yue was a very cold and aloof person.
In the school, there were excellent students, but of course, there were also bad students. There were cold and aloof people, but there were also mischievous children and naughty children who thought they were the school boss.
When these two attributes were combined, it was natural that there would be conflicts. Therefore, a few days later, Li Yue encountered her first (one-sided) school "bullying" incident after she transmigrated.
That day, it was the school teacher's lunch break, and the children in the school were very noisy. Li Yue was lying on the table with her eyes closed as usual. Suddenly, someone slammed her table.
Li Yue, who was shocked, slowly raised her head and glanced at the initiator. Then, she calmly lowered her head and continued to sleep.
The child who slammed the table obviously felt that he had lost face. He shook Li Yue's table heavily again. The latter yawned and forced herself to sit up straight. She stared at the child without moving. In fact, her eyes were not focused at all.
The other party did not say anything. The child was stared at until his face turned red. He had no choice but to find a way out. He put his hands on his hips, cleared his throat, and said to Li Yue aggressively, "Where are you from?
"Where are you from? Why didn't you come here and pay your respects?"
Li Yue was speechless.
"I don't want you to give me anything valuable. You just need to give me three pieces of caramel candy every day and call me boss. Do you hear me, newcomer?"
Li Yue was speechless.
The little girl's gaze swept past the leading brat and stopped for a moment on the three little followers behind him. Then, she retracted her gaze and said, "Are you very good?"
"Of course!"
"But seeing is believing. You have to at least prove it."
"How do I prove it?"
"How about this? You put your inkstone on the beam at the front. The ink in the inkstone can't spill. If you can do it, then you're good."
"Hmph, what's so difficult about that?"
The little wimp and his little sidekicks whispered to each other for a long time. Together, they brought over a ladder from somewhere. He climbed up to the beam and placed the inkstone there. Just as he was about to show it off to Li Yue, someone shouted, "Mister is here." The little wimp's hand trembled and the inkstone was stuck on his body. With ink all over his body, he rolled down the ladder.
Along the way, the three of them stayed in about twenty inns, big and small. More than half of them were legendary black inns. Some of them were ready to rob them on the night they checked in. Unfortunately, most of them were killed by Tie Chuanjia. The moment Tie Chuanjia rolled up his sleeves, the rest of them decisively put down their weapons and obediently did business in the inn.
