When I looked, it was my little grandson crying!
The Minister of Rites glanced at Ming Yiqian and Ming Xin, not wanting to offend them, and said gently, "Xu'er, why are you crying?"
He only has this one grandson, and he treasures him very much.
Ming Yiqian snorted silently and explained for his younger sister, "Lord Hua, I ordered Sun to teach my younger sister the Thousand Character Classic, but she ended up surpassing me."
"Your grandson seems to be a little broken, please comfort him."
He felt that this must have left a big shadow in the little kid's heart.
Mingxin looked embarrassed. This was the first friend she met in Beichen Country.
Just cried like that.
The Minister of Rites thought it was something serious, so he picked up his grandson and comforted him kindly: "Xu'er, don't cry."
"Grandfather will teach you other books tomorrow so that you can surpass the fourth princess."
His grandson was smart since childhood, knew a lot of words, and was always the best among all the students in the school.
My grandson just learned the Thousand Character Classic yesterday and he has already memorized more than half of it.
But when he met the Fourth Princess, it was as if he had forgotten everything.
"Hic~ Really? Grandfather."
"Xu Xu must learn a lot and grow up to be a good official like his grandfather."
Hua Wenxu burped softly.
The Minister of Rites nodded repeatedly, "It's true, it's true."
His old eyes flashed with brilliance and he looked at Ming Xin with a fiery look. "Your Highness, you just said that the Fourth Princess read the Thousand Character Classic directly to the end. Is that true?"
"Lord Hua, it's true."
Ming Yiqian suddenly became proud.
The Minister of Rites was even more excited. "The Fourth Princess is young and intelligent, blessed by heaven. She is a good student."
"I wonder if the Fourth Princess has any thoughts about studying at the Imperial Academy?"
"Don't let this talent go to waste!"
That gleam of light frightened Mingxin.
She hugged Ming Yiqian's legs and hid behind him. She didn't want to study.
Reading is not fun at all.
Ming Yiqian coughed and said, "Lord Hua, the imperial sister is still young. There is no rush for her studies. Let's talk about it next year."
He heard from his mother that when he was in Yunle County, he hired a tutor for his younger sister.
result!
The little sister teased the teacher with a frog and scared him away.
He could tell at a glance that his little sister loved freedom by nature and disliked being restricted. She was a good student, but she just didn't like reading.
If she doesn't like reading, then don't force her.
It’s not too late to send your child to school when he is five years old.
After hearing this, the Minister of Rites looked disappointed. How could such a good talent be wasted?
No, he has to talk to the emperor during the morning court tomorrow.
The emperor is the father of the fourth princess. He can't just ignore his daughter's good talents, right?
Thinking of this, he glanced at his little grandson, who had the habit of hiccups when he cried. Forget it, it’s better not to poke him and the fourth princess.
He said cheerfully, "It's noon now. I wonder if the Second Prince and the Fourth Princess are hungry?"
"I will have my servants bring lunch up."
"Uncle Hua, I'm hungry."
"Hurry up and serve the food, Brother Xuxu is burping from hunger."
Mingxin said, patting her belly.
If Uncle Hua talks about her studies again, she will not come again.
"well."
"Butler, hurry up and prepare the food."
"Xiaohua Xiaocao, go and invite the old lady over."
The Minister of Rites gave orders.
The servants pulled out the round table and prepared a clean basin.
The maids brought the delicious lunch to the round table, and the old lady, who was walking with difficulty, came over with the help of the nanny.
"Your Highness, this is my old wife."
"I had some problems when I was young, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
Introduction by the Minister of Rites.
Old Madam Hua is about the same age as the Minister of Rites (around sixty), but she looks much older than her peers.
Just like being in your seventies or eighties.
"Your Highness greets the Second Prince and the Fourth Princess."
Old Madam Hua was trembling and wanted to salute, but was stopped by Ming Yiqian.
"Madam Hua, please sit down. You're welcome."
The Minister of Rites smiled and talked about his family affairs. "Your Highness, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me."
"When I was young, I was injured and had only one son."
"After my son got married and had a grandson, he took his daughter-in-law to work as an official in the local area. It was just the old couple of us and our grandson left at home."
"From now on, if the Fourth Princess wants to come and play, she can just come and play."
He suddenly felt a little emotional.
In the court, apart from Censor Sun's family, his family was the only one so deserted.
It's really boring to guard such a huge Shangshu Mansion.
"good!"
"I promised Uncle Hua that I would come play with you later."
Mingxin patted her chest and poked Hua Wenxu beside her with her chopsticks.
Hua Wenxu showed his little fangs and smiled happily.
Madam Hua smiled kindly, "Eat quickly, or it will get cold."
The five of them picked up their chopsticks and ate lunch in silence.
Afterwards.
Old Madam Hua couldn't hold on any longer and went back to rest first.
After playing in Huafu for a while, Ming Xin asked Ming Yiqian to take her away from Huafu.
The Minister of Rites is a good man and doesn't have any explosive secrets, so Mingxin is willing to be a good child.
It’s fun to reveal secrets mainly when they are used on bad guys.
"Second brother, where are we going next?"
Ming Xin was eating candied haws and running happily beside Ming Yiqian.
Ming Yiqian was eating fried chestnuts. As the weather got cooler, more and more people were selling baked snacks on the street.
"Xinbao, digest your food before going."
"There are a lot of snacks on the street, don't you want to eat some?"
Behind him, Su Ye and An Qi were eating fried chestnuts and roasted sweet potatoes.
"oh."
"Then eat a little."
Ming Xin ran to a stall selling candy figures and stopped, looking at Ming Yiqian eagerly.
