"Miss, try this steamed cake. Although it's a little rough, it's clean!"
Mammy suppressed her anger and spoke softly to the little girl.
She was thinking in her heart that the little girl named Yuanyi said that the Gu family next door was a sickly person.
She has a gentle personality, so she should be easy to approach.
If possible, you can let your young lady get in touch with the Gu family.
This child is too timid, but fortunately he is young and can still be turned around.
However, the nanny felt sorry for her and didn't want to follow the rules right away, so she wanted to take it slow.
Next door, maybe it's an opportunity.
…
After visiting the neighbors and roughly confirming that they were not competitive, sarcastic or mean, Gu Qingcheng felt relieved.
After Zhao Qingyun settled his family, he went to report to the academy.
My cousin Goudan followed Zhao Qingyun as a servant, helping with errands, carrying schoolbags and other chores.
Zhao Qingsong set up a small training ground at home, where he practiced horse stance and wooden stakes seriously every day.
As for Gu Qingcheng, she would occasionally visit Mrs. Cui and spend the rest of her time resting at home.
Zhao Yuanyi was busy running around, but he would also go out of the house and interact with the neighbors on the east and west sides.
Gradually, Gu Qingcheng gained a deeper understanding of her neighbors——
On the east side is Mr. Zheng's house. Mr. Zheng is sick and cannot work too hard, so the virtuous and capable Mrs. Wan takes care of everything at home and outside.
Wan's eldest son is thirteen years old this year. He has passed the imperial examination and is the youngest scholar in the county.
My second son and daughter are twins, a boy and a girl, both seven years old this year.
The second son studies in academy, and the daughter studies with her mother and rarely goes out on weekdays.
However, through the wall, Gu Qingcheng could always hear the girl's laughter and reciting, and knew that the little girl next door was a lively and smart child.
The neighbors on the west side are a grandparent and grandchild.
My grandmother, Liang, was an embroiderer when she was young.
After his daughter-in-law died, he took his only granddaughter to Beijing to live with relatives.
But when we passed by the county town, our little granddaughter fell ill and her condition was not very good.
Liang had no choice but to rent a house and stay in the county town to take care of her granddaughter.
Without money, Liang had to go back to her old job and make money by embroidery.
Gu Qingcheng looked at Zhao Yuanyi's fear and admiration when she mentioned Liang, and her heart moved: "Yuanyi, do you want to learn embroidery?"
Ahem, she doesn't want to train a cheap niece.
She really didn't want to buy ready-made clothes anymore, and Zhao Yuanyi's needlework was just average.
Gu Qingcheng is used to being particular and wants to create conditions even if there are none.
By training Zhao Yuanyi, she will be able to wear exquisite clothes that suit her taste in a reasonable way.
"think!"
Zhao Yuanyi was well aware of the saying that "even in times of disaster, craftsmen will never starve to death." She didn't have the opportunity in the past, but now that the opportunity was right in front of her, there was no reason for her to refuse it.
Without Zhao Qingyun's knowledge, his mother had already had deeper contact with the neighbors on the west side.
And he won the favor of Mr. Zheng with his extraordinary talent.
"Oh? You also live in the back street of the academy? We are neighbors."
Mr. Zheng was a little surprised. After school, he took the initiative to invite Zhao Qingyun to his home.
Sitting under the porch, Zheng Wanjun held his face with his hands, thinking about how to use what he had learned to create a source of income for his family. When he looked up, he saw a fair, delicate little handsome boy!
