Chapter 169 Private School Life
Just as they were making soup, Huang Xue Ning and Wen Ru Yu finally arrived. Jiang You Zhen was carrying her bowl back to the table when the two men looked at the bowl in her hand. She smiled sheepishly but walked over without any hesitation.
It’s not her fault that I came late. After all, we are just casual acquaintances, so I just need to keep face.
"Let's go!" Wen Ruyu looked at the empty bottom of the bucket. It wouldn't matter if he went hungry for a meal. He was used to it anyway.
"Okay! My servant has already brought it, so let's just eat it."
Huang Xue Ning didn't care at all, he was even secretly happy. He was really tired of the bland soup here. After all, he was a young master, if it wasn't for Wen Ruyu's face, he wouldn't even look at this pig food.
"No need! I'm not hungry!" Wen Ruyu shook his head.
"No way. I'll just throw it away if I can't finish it." As the two were talking, Wen Ruyu suddenly turned around and smiled at Jiang Youzhen.
Jiang Youzhen was startled. What happened? You can't blame me for not having a meal! I can't give you this little bit, can I?
Jiang Youzhen grinned at Wen Ruyu and then looked down at Jiang Jiawang.
"Eat quickly! I brought some bread with me. I'll get some to eat later when I get back."
Jiang Jiawang smiled brightly, and his depressed mood suddenly improved. He didn't have enough to eat in the cafeteria every day, and he was so hungry when he went home.
"Why are you here this morning? Why didn't you take the bus with me?" Jiang Youzhen forgot to call Jiang Jiawang in the morning.
"My great-grandfather said that we have to come to the private school every day, and it's not good to always use Uncle Sixteen's car. We used to take the ox cart, and it was okay."
Jiang Youzhen didn't expect Jiang Jiawang to be so sensible, which made him feel a little pity for him.
Jiang Youzhen suddenly thought of Gao Shan and his son. They were sent to the farm because spring planting was about to begin. Gao Shuisheng could drive an ox cart, so it would be better to let him learn to drive a horse cart, so that Jiang Fugui would not have to pick her up every day.
"Just go to school with me in the future. If I have anything to do, I will tell you in advance."
Wen Ruyu and Huang Xue Ning, who had returned to the study, were also eating. Huang Xue Ning was eating voraciously, but Wen Ruyu was absent-minded.
"Do you feel that Jiang Youzhen suddenly became cold after hearing our names?"
"Ah? Really? No? We are not familiar with her, isn't it normal for her to be a little distant towards us?" Huang Xue Ning took his greasy mouth away from the chicken leg, looking confused.
"No! I think her attitude has changed significantly." Wen Ruyu has always been very meticulous, and the change in Jiang Youzhen's attitude could not be hidden from his eyes.
"Brother, he is just a new junior fellow student. We didn't know each other before. Are you being too suspicious?"
Huang Xue Ning didn't take it seriously. His senior brother was good in every way except that he was a little too pretentious like a scholar sometimes. He also had a very complicated mind and liked to guess what other people were thinking.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it?" Wen Ruyu shook her head.
When Jiang Youzhen and his friends returned to the study, many of them had already returned to their seats. Jiang Youzhen took a look and found that these students were very hardworking and diligent. They did not rest after dinner, but took the time to review their lessons. There was no fighting at all.
Wow! He is indeed a Rockets seed player. Look at him! He is not only talented but also hardworking.
Turning around, Jiang Youzhen waved to Jiang Jiawang, "Jiawang, lend me your book so I can copy the notes."
"Junior brother! Do you want the copy of The Analects? I happened to have it with me today, I can lend it to you. Junior brother Jiang Jiawang is also studying this copy, I'm afraid it's not convenient."
At this moment, a slender hand with distinct joints stretched out from the side. Jiang Youzhen turned around and looked. Who else could it be but Wen Ruyu?
The hands of scholars are indeed beautiful. It would be a pity if they are not used to play the piano. Jiang Youzhen looked down at his own hands. Hmm! Not bad! After the systematic transformation, his fingers are also thin, long, and very white.
Huh? I didn't notice it before, but my hands are no longer the same pair of cracked and frostbitten claws.
"Thank you for your kindness, senior brother. However, my nephew and I live in the same village, so it is very convenient for me to borrow books. He learns faster than me and is almost done with this book. I will just lend it to him." Jiang Youzhen refused. Who would dare to take yours?
Wen Ruyu smiled and retracted her hand.
"Uncle Sixteen, why don't you use Senior Brother Wen's? My handwriting is not good." Jiang Jiawang scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and turned a page to Jiang Youzhen.
Jiang Youzhen quickly turned around and snatched the book that Wen Ruyu hadn't completely retracted, "Hehe! Thank you very much, Senior Brother Wen. I promise to return it to you as soon as possible."
"You kid, how can your handwriting be so ugly? Do your parents and great-grandfather know about it?" Jiang Youzhen was not being pretentious. There were clumps of ink on the book, the writing was very dirty, and the words were written in different sizes.
I heard from Jiang Heng that this kid started learning at the age of five, and it has been three years already. His handwriting is still so ugly, he must be a genius!
Jiang Jiawang frowned and said, "Of course I know. Haven't I been practicing calligraphy? I practice two extra large characters every day when I go home!"
"I think two may not be enough, maybe we need a few more." Jiang Youzhen said without raising his head, and began to copy quickly.
Jiang Jiawang quickly approached Jiang Youzhen and smiled flatteringly, "Uncle Sixteen, don't tell my grandfather when you go back. He hasn't checked my homework in the past few days."
"Then go back today and add another piece of big characters. You have to write it well and show it to me tomorrow morning."
Jiang Youzhen patted the boy on the shoulder and said that it was necessary to have good handwriting for the imperial examination. Otherwise, the examiner would have a bad first impression of your paper and the score would not be high, or even fail.
"Ah?" Jiang Jiawang was very frustrated. Who would understand? It was hard enough to be controlled by his great-grandfather and his master, and now he had to add his sixteenth uncle.
"If you write well, I will bring you a big meat-filled bun tomorrow."
Jiang Jiawang smiled brightly, "Thank you, Uncle Sixteen!"
So easy to be bribed? Jiang Youzhen smiled. She looked at the hairless brush in Jiang Jiawang's hand, thinking.
Her identity might be discovered in the future, so it would be better to build a good relationship with the clan leader. She should be nicer to the clan leader's grandson, so that the clan leader would not embarrass her in the future.
Wen Ruyu looked at Jiang Youzhen's serious profile and suddenly found that her eyebrows and eyes were really beautiful. She didn't know what a boy or girl looked like before, but now she has some experience.
Wen Ruyu was not the only one looking at Jiang Youzhen, her classmates were also secretly glancing at her. First, Jiang Youzhen was outstanding in appearance, and second, Jiang Youzhen was dressed richly and looked a bit distant, so many people were embarrassed to talk to Jiang Youzhen.
Jiang Youzhen adapted to the life in the private school in a short time and was immersed in reading and practicing calligraphy. She did not feel as uncomfortable as she had imagined. Instead, she felt that time passed very quickly.
When everyone saw that Jiang Youzhen was so smart and hardworking, they immediately picked up their books and pens to study.
