Chapter 274 Enlightenment Class
The imperial physicians in the palace once said that Gu Qinghuai was deeply afflicted by the Gu poison, and even though the Gu worms had been drawn out of his body, he still needed to rest and recuperate.
At the repeated requests of the Crown Princess, Gu Qinghuai has restrained his temper and become a calm person.
But he really couldn't stay calm today!
Gu Ling was clearly stunned by Gu Qinghuai's slap. At only four or five years old, she stood there, speechless, forgetting to cry. Gu Wen, however, had no such reservations. She stepped forward and shoved him, shouting, "You're a bad person! Get out of my house! I'll have my father kick you out!"
Gu Qinghuai took a half step back to steady himself, his voice indifferent: "Of course I'll leave. I only went back because of Aunt Jin. Gu Qiuheng never raised me, so there's no need for him to pretend to be a strict father in front of me!"
In Gu Ling's heart, Gu Qinghuai was not a member of this family. As long as she threatened him as the wet nurse said, he would fawn over her. How come the relationship between the two has been reversed now?
Master Song finally stepped in to interrupt the farce: "Gu Ling and Gu Wen are disrespectful to their elder brother and have no respect for others. Guards, take them back to the Prince of Zhennan's mansion."
These two siblings were taken in by the dean, so his actions could only serve as a slight deterrent. Only the Prince of Zhennan could resolve his family affairs. Fortunately, Gu Qinghuai was a strong-willed child and was not affected.
"DouDou!"
"Hmm?" Gu Ling, her eyes still blurry with tears, turned to look at Qiu Qiu. "Little chubby girl?"
A huge question mark appeared on Chuchu's little head: [You're so chubby, who do you call "little fatty"?]
Chiu Chiu was so angry that she put her hands on her hips and said fiercely, "Brother, come with Chiu Chiu!"
"You're so naughty! Daddy's going to spank you!"
What Qiuqiu originally meant could be understood as her wanting her father to beat up this bad boy, but from Gu Ling's perspective, she couldn't hold back on the spot.
"Waaaah, that little chubby girl is so mean! She actually said she's my dad!"
When Gu Wen saw that her brother was crying, she also burst into tears. The entire Qingyang Academy was filled with the sound of the brother and sister crying, making everyone's head feel like it was going to explode.
Chirp chirped proudly, "Brother, come with me... home!"
With so many older brothers, Chiu Chiu could easily afford to raise one more.
Lu Diandian thought for a moment and said, "Come back with me. I'll take care of my uncle in his old age and see him off when he passes away."
She's a junior; this is what she should do.
Everyone: "???"
Gu Qinghuai: "That won't be necessary."
Lu Diandian nodded frantically: "Yes, yes!"
Master Song sighed. Lu Diandian was probably beyond saving. Luckily, he wasn't the one teaching her.
“Dian Dian, I’ll take you to see your future teacher. Qiu Qiu, right? The Marquis has already spoken to the Dean, and you will be auditing classes in the Elementary Class A from now on.”
At home, Chiu Chiu is a little tyrant, but she's incredibly well-behaved when she goes out. With her arms crossed over her stomach, she bowed to Master Song and said in a sweet, childish voice, "Thank you, thank you, Master~"
Although the little girl, Dudu, spoke unclearly, she was beautiful, adorable, and very polite. Master Song, having seen many mischievous boys and wild monkeys, initially found Dudu quite endearing.
"Hmm, get up. You know the new teacher too, so behave yourself." He glanced at Lu Diandian, who was trying to persuade Princess Fu Ning to stay, and felt a headache coming on. "Lu Diandian, behave yourself!"
Chiu Chiu was almost asleep while waiting in the beginner's class when the new teacher finally arrived.
She stared blankly at the person who had arrived; it was Gao Wenyan, whom she hadn't seen for several months since returning from the southwest!
[My future brother-in-law!]
When Gao Wenyan saw Qiuqiu, his expression deepened. He really wanted to be Qiuqiu's cousin-in-law, but he came from a poor family and wanted to become the Yun family's son-in-law, so he would have to pay a price.
Why is he a tutor? Does His Majesty dislike him? Chiu Chiu was a little conflicted. "Will he be able to support my cousin?"
Girls need to be pampered!
Gao Wenyan's smile vanished, and he stepped forward to tap Qiuqiu's forehead. "I am here on His Majesty's orders to enlighten you."
Chiu Chiu gave Gao Wenyan a meaningful look, "Oh~"
[If you want to be the emperor's son-in-law, you should try to please your sister-in-law beforehand!]
Who brought Fu Ning here?! How dare they do it but not admit it?!
He really wanted to please his sister-in-law, but this sister-in-law...
"Su Qiuqiu!"
Gao Wenyan kept reminding himself to stay calm. He couldn't hit Qiuqiu; if he did, Qiuqiu probably wouldn't even be able to get into the Yun family's house.
He forced a smile: "Chirp chirp, this is the prodigy class. In two months, the Great Zhou and the Turks will have a big competition. We absolutely cannot lose to them!"
He wondered why the Turks in his dream weren't so stupid; why did they have to hold some kind of child prodigy competition to make themselves look good?
Their Great Zhou is full of talented people; even one clever little chick could wipe them out!
"Chirp, you have to be strong!"
Chuchu: "Huh?"
What are you arguing about? I can't even steam a bun!
Is she a child prodigy?
How did I suddenly become so confident?
There are actually only three students in Class A of the Enlightenment program. Qiuqiu and Fu Ning are the exceptions, and they are currently considered exceptions.
Lu Diandian, with his chubby face, leaned to the side, propping his chin up as he sized up Gao Wenyan. "Master Gao, who are those two?"
Gao Wenyan introduced the other two children to them: "Jin Xiaoming, the son of the Imperial Academy Chancellor Jin, and Geng Siru, the son of Fuling Academy. Xiaoming and Siru, this is Princess Funing, Lu Diandian, and Qiujiu."
The two sides had a friendly meeting, and everything was fine except that Qiuqiu and Princess Funing stuttered a little when they spoke.
Chiu Chiu was very happy to have met her new friends. She kept wiggling her body and sneaking peeks at them out of the corner of her eye. [Hehe, Little Lantern Brother and Pickled Mustard Brother!]
The book Gao Wenyan had just picked up fell to the ground. From Qiuqiu's expression, he knew what kind of mischievous idea she was thinking of.
"I'll say it again, no one is allowed to give other classmates nicknames in my class, understand?"
A few scattered voices broke the silence: "We know!"
Gao Wenyan seized on the person he was observing: "Does Qiuqiu know?"
Chiu Chiu nodded: "I understand!"
She's not stupid!
[Little Lantern Brother and Pickled Mustard Tuber Brother are affectionate nicknames; how can affectionate nicknames be considered pet names?]
Gao Wenyan added, "And they're not allowed to use nicknames either."
Chiu Chiu raised her little hand high, wanting to tell the teacher about the problem, "I, Yu... He."
"Healed? Where did you get hurt?" Gao Wenyan was startled. He held Qiuqiu's little hand and looked at it three or four times. After a flurry of activity, Gao Wenyan finally learned Qiuqiu's real name.
"You mean the Marquis named you Hemo?" Gao Wenyan's lips twitched, he really couldn't believe that this was the name that Marquis Wenyang had carefully chosen for Qiuqiu.
Could it be that he got the name from the three copper coins he found at a fortune teller on the street?
Chuchu has always been very confident in her reputation. Healing means she's...in great shape!
What are you laughing at! Why are they looking at me like that?
He speaks with a tough exterior, but is actually quite cowardly.
She looked at it again last night: "Hey guys, what's up?"
Let everyone showcase their talents!
Men, it's time to show you who the real child prodigy is!
I wasn't feeling well and went to the hospital for an IV drip last night. I couldn't stay awake any longer, so I'm only posting one chapter today with a leave notice. I'll make up for it over the May Day holiday. Yesterday it was so hot I wanted to wear short sleeves, but today my face is freezing! I'm so fed up with this awful weather!
