Chapter 8 Substitution
Qiu Heng had to learn a lot in those ten years, and the hardest part was practicing martial arts. It was easy for her to stand for an hour, but she still had five people to kill, so she really didn't have time to enjoy this relaxation.
"Miss Six, you can start." Qiu Heng's momentary silence seemed to Mammy Zhu to be unwilling, and she sneered in her heart.
It doesn't matter if she can walk, stand, sit or lie impeccably. She has the final say when she learns it well.
"Aunt Zhu, please tell me clearly what I want to learn. Is it based on a few sisters, or are there other requirements?"
After hearing this, Aunt Zhu immediately darkened her face: "Sixth Miss, just do as the slave says. I will let you know when it is ready."
Qiu Heng shook his head: "Without a clear goal, I won't be able to eat or sleep."
What kind of ridiculous excuse is this?
The shock of seeing Qiu Heng behave as well as any noble girl just now turned into anger at being provoked.
"If Miss Six has this attitude, please forgive me for my incompetence, so I have to ask the old lady to find someone else to teach me."
"Then I'll ask grandma." Qiu Heng walked out.
Aunt Zhu was stunned for a moment before chasing after her.
What's going on with these six girls? Are they not afraid of threats?
After walking out of Lengxiangju, Qiu Heng glanced at the left side calmly.
The flower branches there swayed slightly, and a boy ran away quickly.
"Sir, Miss Six has come out. It looks like she is going to Qiansong Hall."
"Okay!" Qiu Song clapped his hands, grabbed the slingshot and ran out.
Here, Aunt Zhu caught up with Qiu Heng and warned in a low voice: "The old lady arranged for the sixth girl to learn the rules. The sixth girl went to the old lady to make trouble. Aren't you afraid of the old lady's punishment?"
Qiu Heng walked slowly, looking innocent: "I'm going to reason with my grandmother."
Reasonable? The uneducated little girl is really stupid and ridiculous.
"Sixth Miss, please think carefully. If you offend the old lady, I will have to be stricter with you."
Qiu Heng tilted his head: "If Aunt Zhu doesn't want to disturb the old lady, we will go back to Lengxiangju. From now on, I will learn easily, and Aunt Zhu will teach easily."
"A servant like me doesn't have any ideas." Aunt Zhu was expressionless, rejecting the suggestion that she should take advantage of the situation.
It turns out that none of the five girls in the uncle's house, including the eldest girl who entered the palace, was so disobedient to discipline. She wanted to see what the sixth girl could do with the old lady. It's true that the ignorant are fearless!
"Mother Zhu is so upright, no wonder grandma chose you to teach me -" Qiu Heng said, her feet suddenly slipped.
There was a sound of breaking through the air, and something hit Nanny Zhu right on the cheek.
Aunt Zhu screamed, causing the birds that landed on the flowers and trees to huff and fly away. The boy who was hiding behind the flowers and trees didn't feel proud when he realized that he had hit the wrong person and ran away.
Qiu Heng leaned over to pick up the object that hit Grandma Zhu and put it into his sleeve: "Is Grandma Zhu okay?"
Aunt Zhu's cheeks were numb, and she spat blood out of her mouth. She stared at the bloody spit for a moment, then her eyes darkened and she fainted.
One of the maids and servants who rushed over after hearing the sound shouted: "Oh, Grandma Zhu is bleeding!"
After all the fuss, Qiu Heng and the unconscious Nanny Zhu arrived in front of the old lady.
The old lady's face turned pale: "What's going on?"
"Aunt Zhu and I were talking in the garden when suddenly something flew and hit Aunt Zhu on the cheek." Qiu Heng spread his palms and said, "It was this mud ball that hit Aunt Zhu."
The old lady took a closer look and knew who made the clay balls - that kid Song'er was acting up again.
In the old lady's opinion, it was normal for her ten-year-old grandson to be naughty, so she changed the subject: "Wake up Grandma Zhu first."
As the maid pinched her, Aunt Zhu slowly woke up. As soon as she saw the old lady, she turned over and knelt down. She complained incoherently: "Please old lady, please make the decision for me. I just walked on the road with Miss Six when I was hit by something unknown." Hit in the face, it must have been——”
Aunt Zhu wanted to make sure it was arranged by Miss Six, but she was interrupted by the old lady coldly: "It's a little accident, just take good care of it. Chun Cao, go get two taels of silver and give it to Aunt Zhu." What Lord? Do you still want her to punish Song'er? It seems that it is not unreasonable to say that slaves bully their masters.
Aunt Zhu noticed the old lady's coldness and held back her words.
What happened in the short time she was unconscious?
Aunt Zhu ignored the difference between master and servant and spoke sharply in front of Qiu Heng. This was because she was taking advantage of her status as a nanny. She did not dare to be presumptuous in front of the old lady, so she secretly decided to find out the situation first.
Qiu Heng spoke at the right time: "The granddaughter's upbringing mama——"
The old lady took a look at Nanny Zhu, who had a swollen cheek and bloodshot eyes at the corner of her mouth. She took a deep breath and said, "This stubborn girl is really a deceit. It's the right thing to send her away quickly."
"You go back first, and the new upbringing mama will come over later."
"Granddaughter resigned."
When Qiu Heng returned to Lengxiangju, Wang's mother came up to her worriedly: "Is the girl okay?"
"It's okay. Grandma is going to send me a new nanny. Which nun does Mrs. Wang think it will be?"
Mother Wang thought for a while: "There are three nuns who are still in the house today, of which Aunt Zhu is the strictest. There is one left, Aunt Yu, and one Aunt Li. I feel that Aunt Yu has a big face. .”
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"What kind of person is this Aunt Fish?"
"Grandma Yu has a sweet temperament and speaks nicely..."
Qiu Heng almost understood it, and the new upbringing nanny also arrived, and it turned out to be Aunt Yu.
Unlike Aunt Zhu who has slightly high cheekbones, Aunt Yu has a round face. She looks kind and her words are much more polite: "Everyone's gait is different. Miss Six takes two steps first to show me. If there are any inappropriate areas, we will adjust them.”
After Qiu Heng did as he was told, Grandma Yu fell silent.
She knew Aunt Zhu's temperament. Seeing that Miss Six was doing well, she would probably be more harsh in order to temper her temper.
Then... was it really an accident that Nanny Zhu was injured and had to be replaced?
"Please give me some advice, Aunt Yu."
"In my opinion, Miss Six has done a very good job. Have you been taught before?" Aunt Yu said in a chatting tone, thinking about what to do.
The old lady's intention was clearly to let the sixth girl stay peacefully in Lengxiangju, not just to learn the rules and etiquette.
"I want to discuss something with Grandma Yu."
"Miss Six, please speak."
"Mother Yu, sit down. Fangzhou, bring some tea."
Soon Fangzhou came over and put down a pot of tea and a plate of snacks.
There are four square pieces of dim sum on the porcelain white plate. They are ordinary in style. They are white and rosy, and they have a soft and glutinous texture.
Aunt Yu thought to herself: This snack shouldn’t be unpalatable.
"Mama Yu first drinks tea to moisten her throat and eats a piece of red bean cake."
Aunt Yu hadn't figured out how to treat this seemingly extraordinary sixth girl, so she just wanted to waste some time, so she took a sip of tea, picked up a snack and put it in her mouth.
Sweet, soft and glutinous, the wonderful texture stunned Grandma Fish.
How could there be such delicious red bean cake!
