The lady of Chongxi has supernatural powers and is favored by the powerful official
Chapter 87: An Invitation with Bad Intentions
"Ah! Do you mean I'm rich?"
Gu Ruoxi didn't even know about the imperial edict because she went to see her mother at that time.
"The emperor is very considerate. He knows that what I need is silver, so he sent it to me."
Xie Qingrou said seriously:
"Xi'er, don't be too casual when talking to the emperor. You will be accused of being disrespectful."
When Xie Qingrou said this, she thought of something else:
"When Xi'er's leg is healed, I think we should find a maid from the palace to teach Xi'er etiquette and some rules."
When the word "rules" was mentioned, Gu Ruoxi's eyes changed. Xie Qingrou hurriedly said:
"Xi'er, it's not that mother is asking you to do this, but you have to learn to avoid making mistakes. You can be casual at home, and I won't force you to be like that young lady. But if you go out and meet other people, or enter the palace, you have to be more particular in the palace."
"So, you should learn these things about etiquette."
Gu Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Xie Qingrou say that she would not force her to follow those rules at home.
She is not an active person, so generally speaking she spends more time at home, and in this way she can live a happy life.
Forget it, now that I have come to this world, I still have to live according to the laws of survival of this world.
I think Nangong Yu and Madam Xie would not do anything to me.
Gu Ruoxi pouted and said:
"Then don't be mad at me, Mom, for being a slow learner. I'm very stupid."
How smart! You set a precedent for yourself so that you won’t be afraid of being accused of being slow in the future.
"It's okay, take your time."
As he was talking, Qingfeng ran over with an invitation in his hand:
"Madam, this is an invitation from Princess Nanliang."
Xie Qingrou took it and looked at it, then frowned slightly.
Princess Nanliang is in a high position, but she is indeed the emperor's sister. Although she is only the daughter of a concubine, she is a member of the royal family after all.
As for her low status, it is true. She was a royal daughter, but she married Liu Chengdong, the second son of Liu Yaling, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
Liu Chengdong has no achievements, I heard he is just good-looking.
The Liu family asked him to take care of some clan affairs at home.
Princess Nanliang is a prominent figure in the capital.
Anyway, she is always there wherever there is excitement.
And if Xie Qingrou remembered correctly, Princess Nanliang had a good relationship with Gu Ruolan.
This invitation was sent to invite Madam Xie and the young lady to attend. The Marquis and the Crown Prince were also invited.
This means that he wants to hold a flower viewing party, and he also left a message for Xie Qingrou, meaning that Xie Qingrou is a member of the Xie family and he would like to ask Xie Qingrou to be the judge.
Xie Qingrou doesn't really like attending such gatherings with young people.
And it can be seen from some of the words above that they are directed at Gu Ruoxi.
I don’t know if he wanted to see who Gu Ruoxi was or what.
Xie Qingrou said nothing and handed the invitation to her son.
Nangong Yu opened it and looked at it and said softly:
"Mom, please reply to the post and tell her that Ruoxi is sick and can't attend."
"No, it's not that she can't, it's that none of us will participate."
Nangong Yu naturally knew that Gu Ruolan and the princess were good friends, so this invitation was probably sent with bad intentions.
Xie Qingrou asked someone to prepare paper and pen, and then wrote the reply herself. Since she was a princess of the royal family, she had to give her some face.
It was made clear that the young lady could not attend due to illness, so she would not go either. If the two hostesses did not go, the host would naturally not go either.
Nangong Yu also specifically asked Shuqi to inform the Marquis about this matter.
The Marquis has been hit hard recently and has no mood to attend various parties.
While Xie Qingrou was writing her reply, Gu Ruoxi was lying there watching her seriously.
Looking at the handwriting of Xie Qingrou, it is really beautiful. Every character seems to be the same size. With a wave of her hand, she can write a paragraph smoothly.
After piecing together some words, I could still recognize a few.
But... Nangong Yu, who was sitting on the other side of the table, could only sigh and smile.
Because Gu Ruoxi's current look was really... really one foot standing on the ground, one foot kneeling on the stool, her upper body lying on the table, and her butt... uh... raised up.
It seemed that everyone in the room was watching Madam Hou write seriously, and no one cared whether her behavior was wrong.
Nangong Yu couldn't stand it anymore, he raised his hand and patted Gu Ruoxi on the waist:
"Sit down and watch."
Gu Ruoxi turned her head and glared at him, rolled her eyes and stuck out her tongue...slightly...then shook her butt left and right and snorted softly:
"Humph!"
He didn't listen at all and continued to read the reply written by Xie Qingrou.
"Mother, I recognize this word. The prince taught me last night. This word is pronounced dong, right? It's the dong in the east where the sun rises."
"Ah, there is this word, this word, I also recognize it."
Gu Ruoxi pointed at a few words and shouted like an excited child.
Xie Qingrou smiled gently:
"Really? This is very good. These characters are a little difficult. Yuer should teach from the simple to the difficult."
All Nangong Yu had in his mind was that swaying little waist and that pink little tongue.
This girl, is she teasing me again?
Nangong Yu was distracted! With a confused look in his eyes and a slightly flushed face, he was caught by Xie Qingrou.
Reach out and pat the table:
"Yu'er, mother is talking to you, what are you thinking about?"
"Ah? Ah! Ah, what did mother say? I...I'm thinking about other things."
Nangong Yu responded immediately.
Gu Ruoxi turned around and smiled with disdain and complacency.
Xie Qingrou smiled and said:
"Xi'er said that she recognized all the characters you taught her last night. I said you can't start with the difficult characters, you have to start from the simple to the complex."
Nangong Yu knew why Gu Ruoxi was smiling so proudly just now.
Immediately interface:
"Yes, mother is right. Huaqi, you should go out right now and buy two sets of enlightenment books. Put one set in Wutong Courtyard and one set here, so that the young lady will have the opportunity to learn in the future."
Huaqi immediately took the order and ran out. Gu Ruoxi did not refuse either, as she also wanted to see what the enlightenment book looked like.
Nangong Yu said again:
"Mom, I teach her about reading and writing when I'm at home, and you teach her when I'm not around. You have to teach her about the ways of the world."
Xie Qingrou happily agreed.
When she got married, she fantasized that if she had a daughter, she would teach her all the knowledge she had learned.
Later, she had only one son, and she gave him some enlightenment, teaching him some basic knowledge and some principles of life. After that, the child learned all his knowledge from the imperial tutor in the palace.
When he was older, he knew how to read. When he encountered a problem, he would write directly to his grandfather, a great scholar. The letters he exchanged with his grandfather's family were all about his study experience.
I can't teach him anymore, and I have felt a little regretful over the years. I have learned a lot at my mother's house, but it's a pity that I don't have a daughter.
Now is the chance.
