"Mr. Chen ate too many zongzi yesterday, must his stomach be uncomfortable?" Meiya asked Chen Qingxuan while putting the millet porridge on the table. "Let's eat something lighter today, millet porridge is the most nourishing for the stomach."
Looking at the steaming bowl of millet porridge, Chen Qingxuan's heart was so soft that he couldn't bear it. He sat at the dining table and watched Meiya enter the kitchen again. This time, a plate of paste was brought out and placed in front of him. He said with a smile: "Eat it quickly, there are four eggs in it, it must be delicious."
Chen Qingxuan looked at the oily and limp mess on the plate. He, who has always been full of economics, couldn't find the right words to describe his mood at the moment. He only knew that he was a little dizzy, happy and at ease.
"Why are you going?" Chen Qingxuan stared at the steaming hot paste and millet porridge in front of him. He heard Mei Ya's footsteps. Only then did he suddenly come to his senses, seeing Meiya standing up to leave, he was too busy to stop her. "You...you eat with me?"
"I'm not hungry. Wait a while to eat with Grandma Chen." Meiya said, turning around and walking into the room. When she is free, Meiya usually stays in her room and won't come out easily. But before she took two steps, Meiya stopped her feet, she turned around with some embarrassment and walked in front of Chen Qingxuan again. Then he asked in a low voice, "Mr. Chen, you will teach the children later, can I sit and listen?"
Meiya wanted to learn how to read for a long time. She thought about it when she was in the capital, but no one was willing to teach a rough court lady how to read, so she looked for opportunities to learn by herself, but she couldn't know a few words. Later, she went to Ninggu Pagoda After getting to know Zhong Mingwei, she wanted to read more and more, especially when she didn't even know how to choose books when she went to buy books for Zhong Mingwei, but she was too embarrassed to ask Zhong Mingwei to teach her. At first, she was afraid that Zhong Mingwei would look down on her. Later, it was Zhong Mingwei who didn't teach her well, and always used Meiya's tofu by teaching her to read. After so many times, Meiya didn't learn a few more words, but she knew the three words "Zhong Mingwei" more than before. Well, now that she has the opportunity, she wants to learn how to read and write with Chen Qingxuan.
"Then what's wrong?" Chen Qingxuan immediately agreed, seeing Meiya's embarrassing appearance, Chen Qingxuan felt unspeakable joy in his heart, and then hurriedly added, "If there is something you don't understand, you can come and ask anytime. Me, anytime."
"Then I would like to thank Mr. Chen first," Meiya hurriedly thanked Chen Qingxuan, turned around and walked into the room, suddenly remembered that there was not much firewood in the kitchen, so Meiya turned around and walked out the door, and then After going out the gate, I bumped into Pang Yi who hurried over with two men, "Pang Yi, where have you been so early in the morning?"
Pang Yi was really taken aback. He was ordered by Zhong Mingwei to go down the mountain to find a carpenter to make doors and repair windows, but he was worried that Meiya would be sad when he saw it, so he got up early and went down before dawn. Shan, hurriedly found the hands and came back, but Meiya still bumped into him.
Pang Yi's face froze immediately, and then he was so busy that he forced a dry smile to Meiya: "The kang at home is broken, the master asked me to find someone to repair the kang, there is nothing else to do, ma'am..."
"Brother, didn't you just talk about repairing doors and windows?" The carpenter behind him quit, frowning and cutting off Pang Yi's words, "We don't care about repairing the kang."
"Yes, yes, you don't need to worry about it. I have to go down the mountain to find someone later. Why are there so many nonsense?" Pang Yi stared angrily, and at the same time he was too busy to talk to Meiya with a smile, "I still have things to do at home. , I won’t tell Madam any more, I’ll go up first.”
"Go." Meiya nodded, watching Pang Yi lead the people away in a hurry, Meiya picked up a bundle of firewood from the shed, frowned and moved into the room.
…
Today, I will not teach new lessons, but review the "Hundred Surnames" I learned before. Chen Qingxuan led the first ten or so children in the private school to shake their heads and recite "Zhao Qian, Sun Li, Zhou Wu, King Zheng", and Meiya sat at the end This is the "Hundred Surnames" that Chen Qingxuan gave her this morning, saying that all the surnames in this world can be found here.
