Chapter 543: Misunderstood again?
Chapter 543: Misunderstood again?
Leng Mengwan's words may have made the little sister doubtful, but Xiao Yining's words were like a bombshell, forcing them to take it seriously. Born in an official family, almost every family has people who study hard for the imperial examination.
Three years after three years, three years seem not long. However, every additional scientific examination means one more chance to make the leap from a carp to a dragon.
Enke is undoubtedly the event that all scholars dream of!
However, just when everyone was about to ask the little kid in detail, Zhang Nishang came back strolling back.
In view of the fact that she had harmed everyone before, they exchanged a knowing look and chose to remain silent.
Zhang Nishang also keenly noticed the strange atmosphere. She pursed her lips slightly, sat quietly in her seat, and said nothing.
Xiao Yining had felt the rejection of Zhang Nishang by the other girls for two days in a row. Although she was curious about how many complaints this person had made to offend so many people, she had to admire her for isolating everyone with her strength.
Just as she was thinking, the little girl noticed the gaze coming from behind her again. She turned her head slightly and looked back, and met Zhang Nishang's slightly resentful gaze.
Xiao Yining: ..., well! This guy just didn't learn a single skill from Zhang Liangchuan.
Class B was filled with a rare quiet learning atmosphere where everyone undisturbed each other. However, if one paid a little attention, they would find that on that day, except for Zhang Nishang, everyone else had sent letters home. But this was not unusual in the entire girls' school, because due to Xiao Yining's change in identity, countless female students sent messages back home.
After school, little Yining once again experienced the convenience of being a princess. Almost every person she met would bow and see her off. With the advice of her sister, she knew that she didn't need to return the greeting, but just walked past those people with proper manners.
Just like that, the little boy returned to Linglong Courtyard with his head held high and his chest puffed out, looking very domineering.
Then waiting for her were Lin Yuzan and Wang Cheng, who were ready to give her a slight beating.
Little Yining glanced at the still bright sky outside, then turned to look at the two people who were leisurely drinking tea in the house, and reminded: "Dad, uncle, you all came to see Sister Qing, aren't you afraid of being discovered?"
Wang and Lin looked at each other and smiled meaningfully at the same time.
Lin Yuzan glanced at his daughter lightly: "How rare, Sister Qing is actually chasing away the elders?"
Xiao Yining: ..., you are so sarcastic, are you jealous of me?
Wang Cheng explained in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, Sister Qing. There is no one in Hanqiu Courtyard now. It's okay for your uncle and your father to come here temporarily."
The kid nodded in understanding, then looked at the empty seat between the two old men. His heart tightened, because these two old men rarely sat so close to each other.
Such abnormal behavior made the little kid instantly alert - they must have come with bad intentions!
This wasn't a knock at all, it was clearly an attempt to hit her!
Wang Cheng took a sip of tea and saw that the little girl didn't move. He couldn't help but ask, "Qing Jie'er, why don't you come and sit down?"
Little Yining's eyes immediately flashed with a gleam of light, her legs softened, she sat down on the ground without any image, and wiped away her fake tears, howling dryly: "Qingjie, I'm so sad, sister Yu Ke's father has the opportunity to become an official, but my father and uncle can't even pass the imperial examination."
Wang, Lin: …
Lin Yuzan was so angry that he laughed: "You are so young and yet you are so ungrateful that you helped your uncle to bully your father. Lin Yining, if your father cannot become an official in the next three years, what will you do?"
Little Yining was startled when he heard that, and quickly stood up from the ground, patting his chest and saying, "Dad, don't worry, Sister Qing will protect you. The sisters said that if there is anything you don't understand, their dad will teach you!"
When Lin Yuzan heard this, he looked at his daughter speechlessly and complained to Wang Cheng helplessly: "Look, she just became a princess and she's already owing favors everywhere. I don't know how much she will owe in the future."
Wang Cheng also shook his head in pain, looking like he was helpless with the kid.
Seeing this, the little girl ran to them, raised her head, and opened her big eyes to ask for praise: "Dad, uncle, Qingjie doesn't owe you any favors. Qingjie exchanged the news of the Enke with my sisters."
Wang Cheng smiled and gently touched the kid's forehead with his fan: "Qing Jie'er, do you know why Pei Dafu specifically said those words to you?"
"Uncle, Grandpa Pei wanted Sister Qing to tell others, and Sister Qing did it!" Little Yining replied without knowing why.
Wang Cheng patiently explained: "The emperor has kept your rewards simple. No matter what the reason is, others will look down on you. But you are able to know the emperor's intention in advance, which will make others re-evaluate your importance in the emperor's heart. You need to publicize this matter well."
Promote it well?
Little Yining frowned and asked in confusion, "Uncle, isn't what Qingjie and the sisters said a favor?"
"This is news that will be known sooner or later. If we exchange it for everyone's advice, it will not be enough. Their gift will offset it." Wang Cheng replied.
Xiao Yining: ...This algorithm of human relations is too complicated, she still can't learn it.
"But fortunately, your father and I are both confident in the scientific examination, so we don't need any guidance from others." Wang Cheng said again confidently.
"Hmph, you're very smart at noon and run very fast. But if you don't tell yourself a lesson one day, you'll make trouble." Lin Yuzan glanced at the kid with disdain and couldn't help scolding him.
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Yining pouted in dissatisfaction. When it came to making trouble, the heroine was countless times better than her.
She put her hands on her hips and defended herself, "Sister Qing would never cause trouble! The one who really caused trouble was Miss Leng. She wanted to buy an official position for Yu Ke's father, which is illegal."
Wang Lin: ..., this is not just causing trouble, this is seeking death.
