The old lady who came behind also saw that her grandson had been wronged, and she felt very distressed. What was Li Qingwan doing here? Why didn’t she hug her grandson?

"My dear grandson, what's wrong with you?"

"Grandma, mother doesn't love me anymore!"

Runer hugged the old woman and kept complaining.

"Run'er, stop talking nonsense!"

Li Qingwan didn't expect the old woman to bring the child with her. She pretended to be uncomfortable and coughed, "Mom, I have a contagious cold and don't want to pass it on to the child."

"Qingwan, is it serious?"

The old woman didn't quite believe what she said, but seeing that she didn't look very good, she glanced around and finally set her eyes on the handwriting copied by Li Qingwan.

"Ayue didn't come?"

"Madam, the young master has gone to find a doctor for Madam. Madam has caught a cold and is feeling very uncomfortable."

Zi'er's words finally convinced the old woman. She quickly put Run'er down and said, "Run'er, did you hear that? Your mother couldn't hold you because she was sick. You are her own son, her darling. How could she not like you?"

Run'er was relieved when he heard this, "Mother, are you feeling uncomfortable? Run'er will pour you some water!"

"No need, Run'er is such a good child, mother will be fine after taking the medicine."

The old woman finally let go of her worries. At this moment, Xiuzhu, Run'er's biological mother, came in with tea. "Old lady, Madam, have some tea."

"Little Master, pour a cup for the young master as well."

When Li Qingwan saw San'er coming, she naturally wanted to make a fool of herself. Xiuzhu, who hadn't seen her son for several days, stared at her. This look made the old woman very dissatisfied.

"Little Master, just pour the tea and leave!"

Xiuzhu didn't expect that the old lady would deprive her of the right to look at the child a few more times, which made her bow slightly, "Yes!"

Run'er wanted her mother to stay, but the old woman's eyes warned her. After she drank her tea, she looked up at Qingwan and said, "Qingwan, mother has heard about your victory in the first battle. With such a capable daughter-in-law like you, our Sima family will surely achieve greater success!"

Li Qingwan knew that the old woman was deliberately flattering her, so she followed her words and said, "This must be the blessing of our ancestors. I didn't expect it to be so smooth and I was chosen by accident."

"What does the palace say?"

The old woman seemed unable to wait any longer. She wanted to announce the good news to all the relatives of the Sima family immediately. By the way, she also wanted to invite those relatives to visit the Sima family and announce the good news!

"This……"

"Why, wasn't he chosen?"

The old woman was very anxious, but Li Qingwan was not anxious at all. The old woman didn't know that she was just using the Sima family's shell to do her own business.

Even if we succeed with the palace this time, it has nothing to do with the Sima family!

"That's what Eunuch Li said. He told me to wait for news!"

"Great! Our Sima family is finally going to make it!"

The old woman was still smug, and Li Qingwan didn't say anything. Well, let the old woman be happy for nothing.

At this time, Run'er whispered something beside the old woman. The old woman paused and looked up at Li Qingwan, "Qingwan, is there really no way to deal with the Master's matter?"

Li Qingwan pretended to sit down awkwardly, "Master Zhuang may not be invited."

"Humph, he is not the only one in this world!"

The old woman was unhappy, which made Li Qingwan feel that she was hypocritical. It was she who had been urging her to invite Master Zhuang. Now his son failed to be invited, and she failed to be invited either. The old woman couldn't eat the grapes and said they were sour?

What a double standard!

"What do you mean..."

"Qingwan, this is what you wrote, right?"

Li Qingwan: “…”

She immediately realized what the old woman was thinking, "I wrote it, what's wrong?"

"Mom, it's good for you to teach them calligraphy."

What? The old woman is planning to take advantage of her?

Seeing that she didn't say anything, the old woman put Run'er down and walked to Li Qingwan. She admired her handwriting very much. It was vigorous and powerful. It was enough to teach children!

"You have always written beautifully. In my opinion, there is no need to hire a teacher. Why don't you teach Run'er and your brother? What do you think?"

"I'll teach you?"

Li Qingwan was speechless. The old woman was really desperate and tried every possible means. Her handwriting was indeed very good, and even her father had praised her when he was alive, but she only wanted to teach Hu'er well. As for the bastard child of a scumbag and a bitch, he was not worthy!

"Before you find a teacher, why don't you teach them to write first? Otherwise, if the teacher is not found, the two children will play all day long, which is not a good thing in the long run. What do you think?"

"But you have to know that being able to write and being able to teach are two different things. I'm worried..."

"Don't worry, I believe in your ability."

Li Qingwan: “…”

"Qingwan, I'm old now, and I don't have much to look forward to. I just hope that Run'er can get the top spot in the imperial examination and bring honor to the family. Then, when I go to the underworld, I can explain it to your father-in-law!"

These words completely changed Li Qingwan's mind. She would not agree to it at first, but now...

"In that case, I'll give it a try, but I have to be clear about this."

"you say!"

"The master can only lead you to the door, but the practice depends on the individual. I am only responsible for teaching, but as for how well they learn, that depends on their luck."

The old woman was not very happy at first, but she had no other good solution at the moment. A Yue couldn't teach her, and a teacher couldn't be hired for the time being. Run'er was already eight years old, and he couldn't go on playing like this every day.

"That's natural, that's it!"

After the old woman left with the illegitimate child born to her scumbag husband, Li Qingwan called Hu'er and wanted to prepare a special meal for her. Under the bright candlelight, Li Qingwan taught Hu'er step by step to write the word "filial piety".

"You need to write steadily and quickly, so that you can write beautiful characters. Do you understand, Tiger?"

Hu Er was very happy and wanted to practice on his own immediately, "Thank you, elder sister. Elder sister, what does filial piety mean?"

"filial piety?"

Li Qingwan frowned and paused, "The word 'filial piety' means respecting one's parents, do you understand, Tiger?"

Hu'er was still a beginner, so he was confused. He blinked his eyes and said, "Hu'er understands. When Hu'er grows up, he will also respect his elder sister!"

He was quite good at applying what he had learned, which made Li Qingwan very happy. "Be good, keep practicing."

Hu Er thought about it and wanted to ask him, "Eldest sister, I heard from the old woman..."

"Mother-in-law, what mother-in-law, what did you say?"

Li Qingwan knew that there were many gossipy people in this wealthy family's mansion, and Hu'er was probably influenced by him again. After all, children are still children, and they say whatever they think.

She touched Hu'er's little head with heartache, and Hu'er said, "It was the nanny beside the old lady. I heard her say the other day that the eldest sister wanted to train Run'er to become the top scholar, and Run'er is the eldest sister's son. She said that I..."

"What did you say?"
