Chapter 269 Unaware

 "Cousin, is Mr. Shen strict?"

On the way to the classroom, Li Zixin looked a little worried, and even the calm Li Zixuan also looked tense.

Both of them knew that some masters had very noble temperaments and looked down upon merchant families.

Daohua comforted her: "Don't worry, Mrs. Shen is a very nice person."

When the three of them came to the classroom, Yan Yihuan, Yan Yishuang, and Yan Yile had already arrived, and they were all sitting in their seats sorting out their books.

"Cousin Yihuan, cousin Yishuang, cousin Yile!"

"Hello, three sisters!"

Li Zixuan and Li Zixin took the lead in saluting the three of them.

Yan Yihuan immediately stood up and returned the greeting: "Hello, cousins!"

Yan Yile hesitated, stood up slowly, and returned the gift in a perfunctory manner.

Yan Yishuang, on the other hand, sat motionless, flipping through the book.

Seeing this, Daohua frowned: "Third sister, are the two cousins ​​greeting you?"

Yan Yishuang raised her eyes and looked at Daohua. She hated Aunt Lin in her heart because she was still grounded. She glanced at the sisters of the Li family with disdain. Is the merchant's home worthy of her return gift? She said a faint 'hmm' and stopped. Got it.

Daohua frowned even more tightly, and Sister Li Zixuan looked a little uncomfortable, but the two of them quickly put the matter aside.

They don't want to make their cousin and the concubine at home unhappy when they come to the Yan family.

Daohua didn't want to be unhappy because of such a trivial matter early in the morning, and she didn't want to make her two cousins ​​feel uncomfortable. She looked away, looked at the two desks placed next to her, and walked over with sisters Li Zixuan.

"You just sit here."

The classroom is very spacious. There were two rows of desks before, but now two more are added to make it three rows.

Li Zixuan asked his younger sister Li Zixin to sit in front, while he sat in the back while the maid placed the pens, inks, paper and inkstones that had been prepared.

Seeing that the two of them were seated, Daohua returned to her seat.

After a while, Master Shen came over.

Yan Yishuang was feeling proud of Daohua's concession. When she saw Master Shen glance at her, she quickly put away the smile on her face and began to read the book seriously.

Master Shen saw everything that happened in class just now. Seeing that Yan Yishuang was still so unaware, he shook his head in disappointment.

The third girl of the Yan family is somewhat talented and a little clever. Although she is not as good looking as the eldest girl, she is still pretty. With the support of the Yan family, she will have a good future when she marries into a small official's family.

It's a pity that this person is completely unclear about important matters.

Mrs. Li of the Yan family is not a ruthless person who does not tolerate concubine children, and the eldest daughter who is a legitimate daughter does not suppress the concubine sister or let the concubine sister take the lead.

It can be said that Miss Yan San is very lucky to be born into such a family.

However, this Miss Yan San, as a concubine, did not follow her own rules and always opposed her legitimate daughter. Now when the girls from her legitimate mother's family came over, she gave them a shameless appearance.

Such behavior is stupid and rude.

But this person was still secretly happy in his heart. He was really ignorant to the extreme.

If Mrs. Li really wants to make things difficult for a concubine, there are not many ways to do it. Even if she has Lord Yan to protect her, Mrs. Li can make her miserable.

What's more, Master Yan no longer loves this concubine's daughter as much as before.

Yes, Miss Youyan is so beautiful in front of her that her daughter behind her is indeed dwarfed by her.

Master Shen glanced at Daohua, who was lowering his head to tidy up the books, and sighed in his heart. It's no wonder that Mr. Yan values ​​this daughter more and more.

She can respect her elders at home, help her in her career, take her out to socialize, and give face to Mr. Yan. How could Mr. Yan not like such a daughter?

Why do aristocratic families value their legitimate daughters?

In addition to the noble status of the mother's family, it is also because most legitimate daughters are sensible and generous, while concubine daughters can't hide their petty ambitions even if they receive the same education.

Of course, the eldest girl of the Yan family is not without any shortcomings.

He doesn't know how to be tactful when doing things, and he is straightforward.

When it came to punishing Aunt Lin, she confronted her father in front of so many servants.

After that, she went to Xingyun Mansion, otherwise, she would have had a good talk with her.

You know, in this world, you can’t just do whatever you want regardless of your rationality.

But then again, in this regard, she is really a bit like the Guo family. No wonder he sent her several letters and asked her to teach this young girl.

Master Shen was thinking about this in his mind, but he didn't show it on his face at all. He called the two girls from the Li family up with a smile and asked them in detail about their homework at home.

After listening to Sister Li Zixuan’s answer, Master Shen pondered for a moment.

The futures of merchants' daughters and officials' daughters are different, so naturally they cannot be taught the same thing.

After thinking about it, Master Shen said with a smile: "I think you are still lacking in rules and etiquette. I will teach you more in this area in the future. The rest of the time, you can choose what you like to learn. Whether it’s red, music, chess, calligraphy or painting, if you don’t understand anything, you can come and ask me.”

Li Zixuan and Li Zixin were overjoyed, and they both knelt down and saluted Master Shen: "Thank you, Master."

Master Shen waved the two of them to sit down, and then started class.

......

Li Xingnian stayed at the Yan family for a few days before leaving this time, because Yan Wenxiu and Yan Wenkai were both going to the academy to study. When they left, they took the three brothers from the Li family away, leaving only sister Li Zixuan.

"Dad..."

Li Zixuan looked at Li Xingnian with some reluctance.

Li Zixin is also a little depressed.

Li Xingnian glanced at Daohua who was standing in the distance saying goodbye to the three brothers of the Yan family, and said to sister Li Zixuan: "You two should learn from Master Shen in the Yan family. Our family can't find such a master. You can't." Missed opportunity, you know?"

The two sisters nodded.

Li Zixuan: "Dad, don't worry, we will learn hard."

Li Xingnian: "...there are quite a lot of people in the third room of the Yan family. If you are wronged, please be more considerate and don't cause any trouble to your aunt."

Li Zixuan and Li Zixin both nodded.

Li Xingnian was silent for a while: "If there are no adults involved, don't be too patient. Go to Daohua, she will protect you."

Li Zixuan was hesitant to speak: "Dad, isn't this going to cause trouble for my cousin?"

Li Xingnian smiled: "Adults value face, and conflicts are difficult to resolve, but the fights between children are harmless and will be over as they happen. Daohua does things in a measured way. Besides, she is a grown-up. Sister, you can teach your younger brothers and sisters."

Li Zixin responded with a smile.

Li Xingnian glanced at Li Chenyi and others: "It's a pity that Wen Xiu and Wen Kai are going to the academy, otherwise you can stay here and study for a few more days."

Hearing this, Li Chenyi and the others also felt a little regretful.

I've spent some time with the Yan family's cousins ​​these past few days, and found that they know a lot.

Even cousin Wen Kai, who doesn't like to read, talks about things outside with great clarity.

On the other side, Daohua handed a food box to Yan Wenkai: "Fourth brother, this is the medicinal diet I prepared for Xiao Yeyang. When you see him, remember to give it to him."

Yan Wenkai looked around and found that there was only one food box, and immediately asked: "Why didn't you prepare it for us?"

Daohua rolled her eyes at him: "What are you eating at home these days? It's not advisable to eat too much medicinal food. I'll just make it for you after you come back from vacation."

Yan Wenkai nodded and asked, "Why didn't you prepare anything for Brother Dong and the others?"

Daohua asked back: "Why should I prepare for them? They are all watched by their family elders, why do I need to worry about them? Xiao Yeyang is different. He stays alone in Zhongzhou, so I don't have to care more. Do you care?"
