The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine
Chapter 5 Reading
Lu Lingxi was still a little weak, so after breakfast he lay back down on the bed to rest for a while. He was not called up until lunchtime by Chunhong.
The lunch was better than the morning meal, with meat. It was only slightly better, and they still had porridge, but with a little minced meat. But this time they changed to a big bowl as Lu Lingxi requested. Fortunately, Chunhong and Liulu did not limit Lu Lingxi's food intake at noon, so Lu Lingxi was finally full, but porridge was not enough to satisfy his hunger.
Lu Lingxi had a good rest in the morning and didn't feel sleepy after lunch, so he said to Chunhong and Liulu, "I suddenly want to read a storybook. Can you help me find one?"
Chunhong and Liulu looked incredulous. The young lady always thought that she had to be as mighty and domineering as the master and kill the enemy in battle to be a capable person. She looked down on the behavior of the sour Confucian scholars, so she always hated books the most and would fall asleep as soon as she read. Every time the master asked her to recite a book, she would secretly ask the servant to read it to her. How come after she lost her memory, she wanted to read books instead.
Seeing Chunhong and Liulv standing there motionless, Lu Lingxi asked in confusion, "Why? Isn't it because Daddy is a military commander that there are no books in the house?"
Chunhong and Liulu came back to their senses, and Liulu hurried out to the study to get a book for Lu Lingxi. Chunhong quickly explained, "We were in a daze before because the young lady didn't like reading before she lost her memory, and she never took the initiative to ask for reading. Every time the teacher in the mansion gave the young lady a lesson, she would fall asleep within a quarter of an hour after reading."
"Hehe! Actually, I'm not reading for learning now, I just want to have fun." As Lu Lingxi said this, he embarrassedly hung the hair behind his ears to hide his embarrassment.
"Even if it's just for entertainment, Miss didn't like reading before. You once said, 'It's more interesting to listen to storytellers, with rich voice and emotions. It's too boring to have only words on the book.'" Chunhong actually imitated Lu Lingxi's confident and convincing look when she said this before.
It is not difficult to imagine that the original owner was a spoiled young lady, arrogant and willful, who only looked at the present when doing anything and could not suffer any loss.
While Lu Lingxi was talking to Chunhong, Liu Lu came back with the storybook.
Fortunately, Lu Lingxi could guess the name of the storybook as "Fox Demon's Return of Gratitude". However, when Lu Lingxi read the text carefully, he found more and more words he didn't recognize, and then he couldn't read the sentences and understand the meaning.
In the eyes of Chunhong and Liulu, their young lady looked at the first page carefully and frowned slightly. On the second page, her frown became even tighter. On the third page, Lu Lingxi unconsciously took a deep breath with her nostrils dilated. Then she quickly flipped a few pages. Finally, with a "pop" sound, Lu Lingxi closed the book a little impatiently.
"Haha! Haha! Maybe it's because I lost my memory, I don't know many words." This is really a large-scale social death scene. I asked to read books, but I can't read many words. Lu Lingxi felt that he might have to study hard for a while, otherwise he would not be able to read the storybooks in the future.
Chunhong and Liulu thought, Miss, you don’t know many words, maybe it has nothing to do with amnesia. Maybe you have never seriously learned to read?
But Chunhong and Liulu didn't dare to say it directly. Chunhong smiled and said, "Miss, don't worry. If you really feel bored, you can find a literate servant to read to you as usual."
Hearing this, Lu Lingxi was about to retort, "I don't want to be illiterate!"
But a strong and powerful male voice came from outside the door: "What's wrong with you, girl? The young lady is not well-educated, and you should persuade her to work hard to make progress. Why are you encouraging her to cheat? No wonder Xiniu's academic performance was so poor before, it turns out that it was you little girls who were doing bad things behind her back?" It turned out that Lu Yi had finished his work and came to see his daughter again.
When Chunhong heard Lu Yi's rebuke, she was about to kneel down and apologize, but Lu Yi waved his hand and asked her to stand aside.
As Lu Yi spoke, he walked quickly to Lu Lingxi's bedside, held Lu Lingxi's hand, and said earnestly: "Xi Niu, you can't listen to this girl's nonsense. Although Daddy is a military general, he doesn't look down on those sour Confucian scholars who quibble about words all day long. If something really happens, it's us, the reckless men, who have to rush to the front. But you are a girl, you should be well-educated and well-mannered, so that people will love you, and you won't be laughed at for being ignorant in your husband's family in the future."
It can be seen that Lu Yi really cares about Lu Lingxi, which is exactly what Lu Lingxi wants. So he said obediently: "Okay! Dad, I will study hard from tomorrow. Dad, please help me find a better teacher."
Lu Yi was very pleased to hear this and nodded quickly: "Okay, Daddy will go and find you the best teacher in the capital right away."
"But then again, Daddy mentioned my husband's family just now? Am I already betrothed to one? How old am I?" Lu Lingxi asked in confusion.
"You are already fifteen this year, not young anymore! As for your husband's family..." Lu Yi said with a guilty look on his face, supporting his forehead with his left hand. "As for your husband's family, Daddy is just making an analogy. Daddy still wants you to stay with Daddy for a few more years."
Lu Lingxi was finally relieved after hearing this. She didn't want to get married just a few days after traveling through time. Moreover, when she was in modern times, she was already 21 years old and had never been in a relationship. She didn't know how to get along with the opposite sex.
Thinking of this, Lu Lingxi showed Lu Yi two cute little canine teeth, smiled sweetly and said: "I also want to stay with Daddy for a few more years. When I get married in the future, I want to find someone as brave and decisive as Daddy, and also as loyal as Daddy. I admire Daddy the most."
Lu Lingxi is almost vomiting from this wave of flattery. It is unlikely that Lu Yi, the original owner's father, will marry her off so easily.
Except for Lu Lingxi, the other three people felt nervous when they heard this. What if their precious daughter (their own lady) knew that her future husband was the prince, that playboy, would she try to commit suicide again?
Seeing the three people in a daze, with ugly expressions, Lu Lingxi couldn't help wondering, wasn't the original owner cute? He finally mustered up the courage to act cute, thinking that he could make them cute, and even if they didn't obey him, they wouldn't be embarrassed, right?
"What's wrong? Why do you all look like that? Did I say something wrong?" He couldn't help but raise his hand to touch his face. Could it be that the original owner's face was not cute in the eyes of people of their time?
Lu Yi coughed awkwardly, "No, Xiniu didn't say anything wrong, it's just that Daddy suddenly remembered that there is something very important that has not been dealt with, and I have to deal with it now. And there is also the matter of finding a teacher for you, I have to do it quickly, otherwise you won't be able to see your teacher on time tomorrow. I'm going to be busy first, you have a good rest."
After saying that, he turned around and said to Chunhong and Liulu who were standing beside the bed: "Don't let me hear you encouraging our young lady to cheat and not learn to read again! This time I will treat it as your first offense. If you do it again, I will sell you out. Do you understand?"
Chunhong and Liulu knelt down together and said, "Slaves, remember this, there won't be a next time!"
Hearing the maids' answer, Lu Yi stood up and strode out of the room.
