Not following the expected path? Reborn and unexpectedly married to a demon.

As soon as she opened her mouth, Shen Wei knew what she was going to say.

Even though there are ways to suppress her heart ailment now, Shen Wei took her pulse as soon as he arrived. If her heart ailment doesn't get better, as she said, she's afraid...

Shen Wei was unwilling to believe it, nor did she want her to accept her fate.

If this is truly the case, then it is a case of heaven being jealous of talent and fate being unfair.

Why should he submit to fate? He had to fight for her no matter what.

She has suffered so much, yet she has saved so many lives.

Her existence is like the sun and moon in the sky, giving people hope and light.

He didn't want his light to go out, nor did he want many people who shared his thoughts to lose the only light in their darkest lives.

This is far more serious than taking his life.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. I won't say anything more. Let's have a good New Year together."

Chu Luo realized that she couldn't persuade him no matter what she did, so she stopped going against his wishes.

She walked around to the table and saw the couplet written by Shen Wei. She sincerely praised it, saying, "Mr. Shen, this couplet is really well written. It's just a pity that it's not finished yet. Mr. Shen, please finish it quickly."

As she spoke, Chu Luo picked up a calligraphy brush from the table, dipped it in ink, and handed it to Shen Wei.

Under her smiling gaze, Shen Wei took the pen and began to write.

Chu Luo simply let the matter drop.

"Young master, why don't you write a couplet as well?"

Shen Wei laid out the paper and handed her a pen.

Chu Luo glanced at Shen Wei's neat and vigorous handwriting, and quickly shook her head with a smile, "Mr. Shen, please don't embarrass me. My handwriting is really not worthy of being presented in a refined setting."

Shen Wei laughed and said, "So, I've actually never seen your handwriting before. It's Chinese New Year, everyone should participate, so why don't you try writing something?"

Seeing Chu Luo's refusal and troubled expression, Shu Tong became curious.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chu Luo found it difficult to refuse their hospitality and was caught in a dilemma.

Everyone was persistent, so she took the pen with some embarrassment and wrote it down on the paper.

Every stroke was taken very seriously.

She wrote two couplets, and the calligraphy on the two couplets was quite different.

The first piece has neat and rounded characters, with no sharp strokes or angles. It's hard to say what kind of font it is, but it gives people a sense of neatness and distance.

The second piece has much sharper edges, and the characters are powerful, casual, and natural, like semi-cursive script, but without a very obvious composition.

Overall, although it's not very neat and orderly, it still has its own style.

Upon seeing these two pieces of calligraphy, Shen Wei immediately understood why she was unwilling to write them or let anyone see them.

"These two pieces of calligraphy have their own style, and there's no way you could call them ugly. It's just that you haven't systematically studied calligraphy, so you lack confidence and assurance."

Shen Wei commented.

Looking at the two calligraphy pieces, Shu Tong also felt that they were unique in themselves.

Judging from Chu Luo's expression just now, she originally thought it would look bad, but now it seems that Chu Luo is indeed not confident enough.

But why didn't Chu Luo learn to write properly?

She was clearly quite good at poetry, songs, and military strategy, but writing is supposed to be the most basic thing in early childhood education.

She is intelligent, studious, and hardworking. Since she is good at everything else, it's unlikely that she hasn't studied her handwriting properly.

Both Shen Wei and Shu Tong had this question.

"Sir, you have such discerning eyes! You can tell at a glance that I haven't practiced my calligraphy properly."

Chu Luo said with a smile.

"It's not that you haven't practiced properly, it's that you haven't learned from a teacher. It's precisely because you've practiced a lot that you've developed your own style."

Shu Tong hit the nail on the head, expressing what she and Shen Wei were thinking. Chu Luo blamed herself for the situation and then tried to gloss over it with a single sentence.

"It's all because I didn't listen carefully in class and practiced blindly, that's why it's like this," Chu Luo responded to this kind of question before.

In his previous life, Chen Shu was also stunned when he saw her handwriting.

I also asked her, and she said that her lie was taken as fact.

So he told her an easy word, the one that Chu Luo wrote on the first picture.

It seems like anyone can write it, blending into the crowd, lacking style, skill, and time.

Chen Shu explained that after seeing her handwriting, he was afraid she wouldn't be able to learn it, so he taught her these very simple characters.

Although, he was unable to properly learn to write from Chen Shu, who had beautiful handwriting.

Knowing this kind of word is actually a good thing for her.

It is often said that one's handwriting reflects one's personality. If someone can write this kind of handwriting, very few people will be able to recognize who she is by her handwriting.

But as time goes by and things change, Chu Luo has written more and more, and somehow a sense of detachment has developed.

Chu Luo knew that Shen Wei thought everything about her was good, and even her handwriting had a unique beauty to it.

She didn't think her handwriting was beautiful.

If we're talking about beautiful handwriting, among all the people she's known across her lifetimes, Jin Wuchen's handwriting is so beautiful it's enviable.

His calligraphy seems to have come to life; every stroke seems to entice the viewer.

Just like him.

I really don't know where he learned his calligraphy from, or which teacher he studied under.

As for her, the Chu family never hired a tutor for her.

In their first life, they hired a tutor for Chu Yinmei, and she secretly followed along outside the window for a few days.

The schoolteacher noticed, but didn't say anything, only raised his voice a little.

Not long after, Chu Yinmei developed a strong aversion to reading, and despite repeated admonitions from her teacher, she could not be persuaded to study.

Despite trying various methods, Chu Luo was unable to persuade Chu Yinmei and her daughter to keep the schoolteacher.

Chu Luo's early education came from her mother singing poems while playing the pipa in a restaurant.

After the teacher arrived, he secretly learned some things thanks to Chu Yinmei.

But the schoolteacher was about to be sent away, so she had no choice but to ask Chu Songyuan for help.

She knelt for a day and a night in order to get Chu Songyuan to agree to her request.

She really, really wanted to study.

But Chu Songyuan kicked her over and told her, "A woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent. Now you dare to kneel down and threaten to disobey your elders' decisions. I think you've been bewitched by that schoolteacher."

She was at a loss at that time.

Before leaving, the poor but book-loving schoolteacher specially gave her several books.

He earnestly told her, "The idea that 'a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent' is a lie. Reading more and studying more will definitely benefit you in the future, so you must not waste your time."

She always kept that in mind.

Later, she saved up some money, and the first thing she bought for herself was a book.

After her rebirth, she longed to meet her former schoolteacher again.

Even though she no longer needed to learn anything more from that gentleman.

But she could provide a better place for her poor but passionate teacher, so he wouldn't have to struggle so much anymore.

However, even though the Chu family would hire a tutor every time they were reborn, none of the tutors were the same one from before.

The teachers who came after them were all more perfunctory and harsh than the last.

Not every teacher is a good person.

There was something disgusting about him: when Chu Luo went to confirm if he was the same schoolteacher from her first life, he developed lustful thoughts towards Chu Luo, who was still a child at the time.

When no one was around, he tried to make a move on Chu Luo.

But at this time, Chu Luo was not an innocent child.

He did not succeed.

Chu Songyuan kept praising her for her talent and intelligence, saying she was destined to become a woman of great talent.

His original intention was to get Chu Songyuan to agree to let Chu Luo go to his class so that he could make his move again.

Chu Luo devised a plan to have his embellished version of events reach the ears of Chu Yinmei and her daughter.

The mother and daughter couldn't wait to kick out the teacher who favored Chu Luo.

This was not Chu Luo's ultimate goal, but rather to prevent more people from being harmed by him.

Chu Luo meticulously planned to lure this hypocritical old lecher to the foot of a mountain outside the Chu family's residence, where she used rolling stones to cripple his hand.

Later, this old lecher got drunk and accidentally fell into a ditch by the roadside at night, where he died because no one found him.

This can be considered karma, and the cycle of fate is inevitable.

Later, wherever there was a Siyuan Grain Shop, no matter the conditions, she would ensure that there was a school there.

Seeing those children who are eager to learn have books to read, my own regret of not being able to study properly when I was a child has lessened somewhat.
