During the famine, a sack of grain was traded for a little girl. Everyone thought the family had lost their minds.
But ever since they adopted little Qingtian, it was as if their lives had be...
Birui's father also reminded the children: "Now that your mother and I have returned to the village, it is not appropriate for you to stay here.
"After we leave, you should all hurry up and pack up your things and move back to where you originally lived. Return the yard to Shopkeeper Xue. Don't let people think we're ignorant. It would be embarrassing if we get chased away later."
Several children quickly agreed.
After seeing the old couple off, he began to pack his things.
Fortunately, they had just moved in not long ago and didn't have a lot of stuff.
Birui also reminded them: "When you move back home this time, people will inevitably ask you about it.
"Dad has told you everything I should say. If someone is sarcastic or laughs at you, just bear with it.
"Don't confront others, okay?"
The brothers all said they remembered it, and then they all carried their things back to their residences.
Birui didn't know what was going on with her brothers, but as soon as she came back, she heard other maids talking about her behind her back.
"I heard that Birui's parents had just returned a few days ago, and they were sent back to the farm by Manager Xue."
"That's right, he looks like he's not presentable. I heard that the day he first arrived, he started showing off and shouting in the kitchen.
"Those who know her think she's a small manager in the kitchen, but those who don't know her would think the whole kitchen belongs to her!"
"I'm telling you, don't tell anyone else.
"Those people in the kitchen had already planned to make her mother suffer a terrible defeat.
"Who knew they'd be chased away so quickly? These people planned for days, but it was never put to use."
The people who were talking in the room burst into laughter instantly.
Birui, who was outside, broke out in a cold sweat when she heard this.
Fortunately, I reminded him early, otherwise who knows what big trouble would have happened!
Although my parents have returned to the farm now, at least our home is saved.
Listening to the people in the room still talking endlessly, Birui did not go in to interrupt them.
After all, there is no point in going in at this time.
She listened silently for a while and found that the more these people talked, the more outrageous their words became and they had gone completely off the track. Then she turned around and headed straight for Qingtian's residence.
At this time, Qingtian had been picked up from Qin's house by the servants.
Prince Rui has been very envious of his wife for being able to sleep with their daughter these days, so he has been coming here more frequently.
Every time Qingtian came back, she would see them both sitting in the house waiting for her.
"Father, Mother." Qingtian greeted the two of them very politely after entering the house, but he didn't know what to say extra.
Upon seeing this, Prince Rui quickly took out a set of small bows and arrows, quivers and other items, and said to Qingtian as if presenting a treasure: "Look what good things Daddy got you."
Qingtian was not unfamiliar with this set of things. Boss Ye often brought these with him when he went hunting in the mountains.
"Dad, why are you giving this to me?" Qingtian asked curiously.
"The beginning of autumn is almost here. After the beginning of autumn, we can go hunting in the royal hunting grounds. Then daddy will take you there to practice, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Princess Rui quickly said, "If Qingtian wants to go, I'll arrange for someone to take your measurements and make you two sets of nice-looking riding and archery outfits, okay?"
"Mom, I already have enough clothes, for all seasons..."
Before Qingtian finished speaking, Princess Rui said, "Mother has saved up so many fine materials, isn't it just for you?
“What is there to worry about and feel sad about?
“When something is just there, it’s just an object. Only when you eat it, drink it, wear it, or step on it, does it truly belong to you.”
I have to say that what Princess Rui said was indeed very reasonable, at least it was enough to convince Qingtian.
Moreover, after arriving at the palace, Qingtian gradually realized that the speed at which money was spent here was completely different from where she had lived before.
So she no longer rejected the kindness of Prince Rui and his wife, and tried to accept their love for her in their own way.
After showing off the gifts he had brought back for his daughter, Prince Rui casually asked, "What did Qingtian learn from Mr. Wei today?"
Because Qingtian has the same photographic memory as him, Prince Rui always wants to ask these questions to show off that his daughter has inherited his good abilities.
Even if the only audience was Princess Rui, he never got tired of it.
In the past, when asked this question, Qingtian would usually write down the historical story he had heard and then retell it to them.
And they are really easy to satisfy, and they think it is enough just to hear Qingtian talking.
But today, Qingtian couldn't help but ask, "Father, Mother, did you know there's actually a girls' school in the capital? What's it like there?"
In fact, Mr. Wei did not talk specifically about women's studies today, but talked about a female poet from the previous dynasty. He mentioned in passing that she had been studying in a women's school in Beijing since she was a child. Unexpectedly, Qingtian remembered it.
It was probably because Mrs. Ye had always wanted Qingtian to go to a girls' school, so even though she had become Mr. Wei's apprentice, Qingtian was still obsessed with the girls' school.
"Girls' school?" After hearing his daughter's question, Prince Rui scratched his head and looked at his wife for help.
He really didn't understand this, but his wife often came into contact with noble ladies from other families, so maybe she would know something about it.
"Why did Qingtian think of asking about female studies?" Princess Rui frowned slightly.
"Today, Mr. Wei talked about a female poet from the previous dynasty who attended a women's school and said that there are women's schools in this dynasty as well.
