She was too lazy to clean up after dressing up as a villain heroine
Chapter 69: Tiger Father and Dog Son
It was a day off the next day.
Qiao Zhenzhen asked Xia Xiang to hold the lyre in the study and went to Mingde Hall together.
Today was also Mo Qingyang's holiday, so she went there deliberately late to give the couple some private space.
After entering the door, she asked Xia Xiang to put the piano on the round table outside.
After opening the curtain and entering the inner room, I saw Mrs. Wu and Nanny Xin dividing embroidery thread.
Qiao Zhenzhen stepped forward to greet Wu.
Aunt Xin stood up to salute her, but she turned sideways and only received half a salute.
Qiao Zhenzhen sat in the seat given to her by Aunt Xin, dividing the line for Wu.
Aunt Xin went outside. After a while, Hu Hue came in, served Qiao Zhenzhen tea and then left.
"Where's dad?"
Qiao Zhenzhen wrapped the separated cyan embroidery thread around the embroidery board.
"I'm in the study. I have some official business. Do you have anything to do with him?"
"I have something to do, but there's no rush." Qiao Zhenzhen said, "Mom, dad can play the piano, right?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"That's good...it's something about schoolwork." Qiao Zhenzhen asked about other things, "Why haven't you seen your second brother coming recently?"
Wu carefully separated the embroidery thread in her hand and said, "Let your father send it to Qing'an Academy."
Qiao Zhenzhen blinked: "What's going on?"
"Didn't your second brother get persuaded to quit by the Imperial College before?" Wu handed some of the pieces she had divided to Qiao Zhenzhen, "Your father has been completely embarrassed."
In the various major and minor exams of the Imperial College for Boys, if you are ranked last in a row, you will be asked to leave.
Qiao Zhenzhen secretly clicked her tongue, Mo Qingyang also served as the Imperial College's proxy wine, his son's academic performance was so poor that he was dismissed, and just thinking about it was so embarrassing that he could dig out a Hogwarts.
Others must be laughing at Mo's tiger father and son behind his back.
And the higher Mo Qingyang stood, the more eyes she stared at him.
If someone lets people loosen their grip and maybe follow his instructions, the royal table can be filled up in no time.
"Your father originally thought that he would simply let him study at home. We don't ask for Jinshi. At least he can become a scholar."
"Xiucai... second brother should be fine, right?"
Qiao Zhenzhen said while twisting the thread.
In the novel, scholars are basically worthless.
The male protagonist in liberal arts must start out as a top talent.
For a less important supporting role, a scholar is useless.
"God knows." Wu's expression was hard to describe. "After the last fight, two families came to the door."
"That's not the second brother's fault." Qiao Zhenzhen said, "Dad didn't blame the second brother, right?"
"I don't blame your second brother. Anyone who dared to come to the door was dismissed by your father, and he turned to them to ask for an explanation. He was talking nonsense, how could he be a gentleman?"
Wu's face showed pride when she said this.
Qiao Zhenzhen had long expected that Mo Qingyang was a man who could make people half-dead in front of the emperor and finally get a reward.
"Then how..."
"Your father said that your second brother is stupid and doesn't make any decent friends. But he likes to run out and make friends with people."
Qiao Zhenzhen thought to herself, he is a bit like a Leo, he likes to run around and make friends when he has nothing to do.
Wu sighed, "He is a man, and it is hard to keep him at home all the time. He can't develop a woman's character."
"Dad is right. It's very shameful for me to look at my second brother's friends." Qiao Zhenzhen took the embroidery thread Wu handed her, "Although I haven't seen any of his other friends, I'm afraid none of them are good."
"Originally we thought that with your second brother's qualifications, it would not be easy to cause big trouble, but look at his friends..." Wu shook her head, "Your father sent a letter to his friends in Qing'an Academy ."
"Is Qing'an Academy far away?"
"It's not far, the carriage can arrive in a day." Wu said, "I don't dare to send it too far, for fear that your second brother will get into trouble outside and the news will not be delivered in time."
Qiao Zhenzhen nodded, this distance was just right.
If you need to ride a horse, you can get there in less than half a day.
"We don't expect your second brother to be very promising. Just don't become a playboy."
"Mother, if you give him some money, he won't become a dandy."
"With your father's status, I don't need to give him money. I'm afraid someone outside will give him money."
"No, he doesn't have the courage." Qiao Zhenzhen said, "If the second brother had money, why would he ask me to borrow money."
Wu's eyes widened, "He asked you to borrow money?"
"It can't be said that it was borrowed. My second brother has never paid it back." Qiao Zhenzhen smiled.
"You are used to living a good life. How can you imagine that in the past, two taels of silver cost a whole family a month." Wu sighed helplessly, "Now it is not enough to give him two taels to himself."
In fact, the two taels of silver would not be enough to grow vegetables in the countryside. At first, the main purpose was to support my husband’s education.
Qiao Zhenzhen thought of her twenty taels of silver...
But it would be good for Mo Tingjin to be sent to the academy.
She was worried before that Hu Yujiao obviously had the idea of taking second place.
"It will be fine when the second brother gets married in the future."
"hope so……"
"How is cousin Yujiao lately? I see that every time I come to say hello, she hasn't come yet."
"It's still the same, she came late." Wu said nonchalantly, "Your father doesn't like her very much, so he has a cold attitude towards her. Yujiao may have felt it. She always avoids your father."
"Daddy doesn't like her?" Qiao Zhenzhen was surprised.
She thought Hu Yujiao was a person who was very good at pleasing the elders.
Mo Qingyang didn't know, but at least Wu was nice to her.
Wu shook her head, leaned closer and whispered, "Don't look at your dad smiling all day long, but he doesn't really like many people in his heart."
Isn’t that what adults should do?
Qiao Zhenzhen felt that Wu was more silly and sweet.
If you see too much human nature, you may even dislike people.
"I don't like my cousin either." Qiao Zhenzhen said, "It's just that my mother was fooled by her and gave her so many good things. Her trip to our house was really not in vain."
She is deliberately eccentric.
Mrs. Wu tapped her forehead with her fingertips, "Why don't you bully her all day long? Your cousin left home alone..."
Qiao Zhenzhen found it funny, "Did we invite her here? It's not that my aunt wants to come to our house to take advantage of her."
Mo Yuying used to have quarrels and talk that was unpleasant and unfocused.
Don't blame Wu for not taking her side.
Qiao Zhenzhen continued without waiting for Wu to speak, "Have you lived here for so long? Didn't my aunt even give you a tael of silver?"
"...You kid." Wu said helplessly, "Don't be so stingy."
"Now I'm being called stingy again. I just said that we are used to living a good life. I don't know how hard it was for a big family of you to have to spend only two taels a month. Mother, you are really difficult to take care of."
"Okay, okay, mom can't beat you." Mrs. Wu rolled her eyes, "Just like your father, he talks loudly, but no one is as powerful as you."
"Amber." Wu called out to the outside.
Amber came in quickly, "Mrs."
"Go to the study and ask if the master is done with his work. Then tell him that the girl has something to ask him."
When Hu Hue went out, Qiao Zhenzhen said, "Mom, you can't convince me, so you want to drive me away?"
"I think you're in my way." Mrs. Wu took the winding board in Qiao Zhenzhen's hand, "Look what you made for me."
"Isn't that good?"
It's just not as tidy as Aunt Xin.
After a while, Amber came back, "The master said to let the girl pass."
Qiao Zhenzhen stood up, "Then I'll go there first."
"Go ahead." Wu said with a smile.
