Chapter 20 Thank You



Listening to the tone of Wei Bosheng's words, Liu Tangxi encouraged him quietly: "Go quickly, don't be afraid, your third uncle will not eat people."

When Wei Hanzhou heard this, he clenched his fists a little tighter.

The problem was, when he turned around, he found that his usually timid nephew actually nodded at her seriously.

Wei Hanzhou's face turned slightly cold and he glared at his nephew.

After Wei Hanzhou and Wei Bosheng went to the study, Wei Shulan held up her chin and said with a puzzled look on her face: "Why is Big Brother afraid of Third Uncle? Third Uncle is obviously a very good person and has never been vicious to anyone."

Wei Fuyao was about the same age as Wei Bosheng and they liked to play together, so he knew a lot more.

Hearing Wei Shulan's question, Wei Fuyao explained: "Third uncle must have gone to teach big brother to read. If he can't remember, third uncle will scold him again."

"Can you read?" Wei Shulan turned and looked at Wei Fuyao.

Wei Fuyao looked at the crooked pattern in her hands, frowned, and said, "Well, learning to read is something that only boys need to learn to read, not girls."

Hey, why does this needle never listen to her and always moves crookedly?

"Why?" Wei Shulan seemed to be the embodiment of a hundred thousand whys, and she would ask a question for every question Wei Fuyao asked.

Wei Fuyao was already a little irritable, and after hearing this, he said impatiently: "Who knows why? Everyone is like this. Look at your grandma, your mother, and my mother. How can they read?"

Wei Shulan seemed to be still confused about the matter of literacy, and wanted to continue asking Wei Fuyao, but she was sensitive to Wei Fuyao's impatience and did not dare to ask anymore. But she was still curious, so she looked at Liu Tangxi who seemed to be thinking about something.

"Auntie, you can't read either?" Wei Shulan asked.

Liu Tangxi said: "Of course I know how to read."

Wei Shulan looked at Liu Tangxi in surprise, then looked at Wei Fuyao who had just said that women could not read.

"Sister, Third Aunt can read!" Wei Shulan said loudly.

This time, the person with the frown turned out to be Wei Fuyao. She was only five years old and couldn't figure out why.

Liu Tangxi seemed to have figured something out. She put down the handkerchief in her hand and said with a smile, "Why can't girls learn to read? That's because some families don't have money, so they can't read."

"So, is Third Aunt's family very rich?" Wei Shulan asked.

Liu Tangxi was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses.

She has been with children for a long time these days and has learned how to deal with them.

"Have you forgotten? Third Auntie has lost her memory and can't remember anything." Liu Tangxi explained smoothly.

"Since you have lost your memory, why do you still remember how to read?" Wei Fuyao continued to ask with his eyes wide open.

Liu Tangxi: "… maybe it's selective amnesia?"

"What is selective amnesia?" Wei Shulan asked.

Liu Tangxi smiled, stretched out her hands, pinched Wei Shulan's face with her left hand, pinched Wei Fuyao's face with her right hand, and changed the subject: "Anyway, starting tomorrow, Third Auntie will start teaching you to read."

"I don't want to learn." Wei Fuyao quickly refused.

"You have to learn it even if you don't want to." Liu Tangxi was very firm. Compared with literacy and reading, embroidery seemed less important.

As children, they should learn more words, read more books, and understand more principles.

Wei Fuyao looked at Liu Tangxi, then glanced in the direction of the study. His face was very confused and even a little scared.

"...Then will you hurt me?" Wei Fuyao asked in a low voice.

"Of course not. Your Third Uncle is so vicious because he doesn't know how to teach. He thinks that everyone in the world is a genius like him, and we are just ordinary people. Besides, Third Aunt is usually so gentle, I won't be vicious to you." Liu Tangxi began to discredit Wei Hanzhou.

Wei Hanzhou: “…”

"Uncle...Uncle San, how do you pronounce...how do you pronounce this word? I...I forgot." Wei Bosheng asked cautiously.

Wei Hanzhou was about to scold his nephew when he suddenly remembered what Liu Tangxi had just said. He sighed deeply and explained in a rare gentle manner.

Unexpectedly, Wei Bosheng became even more afraid.

Wei Hanzhou suddenly realized that there were indeed some problems with his own educational methods.

"Auntie, what is a genius?" Wei Shulan kept asking questions.

Liu Tangxi: “…”

Liu Tangxi felt that he could no longer speak casually just because the other party was a child, and quickly explained the problem: "Genius is a very smart person. For example, our Shulan can hold the needle steadily at the age of three. Great!"

Hearing this, Wei Shulan smiled.

Wei Fuyao looked down at the messy thing she had embroidered and felt depressed.

Half an hour later, Wei Bosheng came out of the study with a wrinkled face.

After dinner, Wei Hanzhou went to the study to read. He was supposed to come back at 12:00 p.m., but for some reason, Liu Tangxi waited for a quarter of an hour but still didn't see him come back. Because this was her usual rest time, she didn't wait for Wei Hanzhou, blew out the candles, and fell asleep.

Wei Hanzhou studied until midnight before closing the book.

As I calculated the time, I also felt a little surprised.

Somehow, although it took me an hour to get home today and I was hot and tired on the way, I felt very clear-headed after returning home and didn't feel particularly tired. So, I read a few more pages of the book without realizing it at night.

It seemed to be the same the last time I went home.

When I came out of the study, the whole house was pitch black, with only the faint moonlight illuminating the road.

Wei Hanzhou walked towards the room with light steps. After reaching the room, he gently took out the bedding from the cupboard, arranged the chair in the cupboard, and lay down to sleep.

The next morning, Liu Tangxi woke up early. After waking up, he sat up from the bed, stretched, and yawned loudly.

However, before she could finish her yawn, she noticed a burning gaze.

Liu Tangxi immediately widened his eyes, covered his mouth with both hands, and then quickly tightened his collar.

After doing all this, seeing that Wei Hanzhou didn't say anything and was still staring at her, Liu Tangxi asked: "Why are you still here?"

Wei Hanzhou pursed his lips.

Because he slept too late last night, he got up late this morning.

Wei Hanzhou raised his hand to lift the quilt, but saw Liu Tangxi staring at him with wide eyes.

Wei Hanzhou paused, raised his head and looked at Liu Tangxi, his eyes full of suggestion.

He is a man and he is about to lift the quilt. As a girl, should you avoid suspicion?

The girl, who usually looked very smart, seemed not to understand his hint at this moment. She was still staring at him, with no intention of avoiding suspicion at all.

Or maybe the other party understood it but did it on purpose?

After the two looked at each other for a moment, they heard Li's voice coming from outside.

"Old Third Wife, are you awake?"

Liu Tangxi finally turned his gaze away and said to the outside, "Mom, I'm awake. I'll go cook right away."

Li said, "Oh, no hurry, mother just wanted to ask, is the third son still in the house? He is not in the study, and I didn't meet him when your father and I went to the mountain just now."

Liu Tangxi did not answer this question, but turned to look at Wei Hanzhou.

Wei Hanzhou looked a little embarrassed and said, "Ahem, mother, my son is here."

"Ah? Oh, that's good, that's good. No rush, no rush. You guys can sleep a little longer." Li said with a smile.

Wei Hanzhou's face became even more embarrassed, and he looked up at Liu Tangxi who was sitting on the bed.

Unexpectedly, Liu Tangxi didn't look embarrassed at all. Instead, she stared at him with interest, as if she was laughing at him.

Seeing her like this, Wei Hanzhou calmed down a little and lifted the quilt on his body.

However, the other party didn't feel embarrassed at all and continued to stare at him for a long time, which made Wei Hanzhou feel suffocated.

What happened to the promise of not looking at what is inappropriate?

Liu Tangxi saw that Wei Hanzhou's face darkened again and thought that he was embarrassed by what Li had just said.

"So you got up late today? It's okay. Everyone feels lazy and it's normal." Liu Tangxi explained to him with a smile.

Wei Hanzhou didn't answer. After putting on his clothes, he walked towards the door.

Before leaving, Wei Hanzhou said two words: "Thank you."

"Thank you for what?" Liu Tangxi asked in surprise.

Thank her for speaking up for him?

"Thank you for teaching Fuyao and Shulan."

Liu Tangxi was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Wei Hanzhou.

Many people have thanked her for teaching Fuyao and Shulan. Zhou, Li, Zhang, etc. She believes that if the distinction between men and women is not so strict here, Wei Laosan, Wei Daniu, and Wei Erhu would also thank her.

However, she didn't expect Wei Hanzhou to thank her in person.

According to Wei Hanzhou's sinister nature, this shouldn't be the case.

This is truly a sentimental villain, subverting her perception step by step. ,,
