Not only did Shen Wan stop teasing Jing Lan when she was writing, she also stopped letting Jing Lan wait for her to take a bath. Lan went back to the small study to sleep.She said that she didn't need Jing Lan to serve her all night, and she could handle things like drinking water at night.

Jing Lan didn't understand why Shen Damei was suddenly alienated from him, at least farther than when she was in Shen's other courtyard.

She couldn't figure it out, but Shen Wan understood it too well.

Ever since she was teaching Jinglan to write in the small study in the south building, and teased Jinglan, she had an impulse towards Jinglan. After resisting this impulse, it was very hard for her, and she warned herself never to do that again.Jinglan is still young, so she shouldn't have some kind of desire for Jinglan. If she doesn't control this desire, she might want Jinglan before Jinglan turns 15.

And she, didn't want to do that.

She hopes that when that day comes, Jing Lan will not be as young as she is now, no matter in terms of age or mentality.She also hoped that when she wanted Jinglan one day, the two of them would be in love with each other and couldn't help doing that kind of thing.

Thus, Jing Lan lived together with Shen Wanruo in the south building.

It is said that they live together because she and Shen Wan are the only ones living in the south building.

Shen Wan usually wakes up in the morning and goes to the Fuguitang to greet the Tang family, and when she comes back to the Yuanyanglou, she will spend two or three hours in the small study with Jinglan.

After lunch and taking a nap at noon, she would come to the small study again to kill time with Jing Lan.

In the morning, she would read and write. In the afternoon, Shen Wan would teach Jing Lan how to settle accounts and play chess. Sometimes she would also draw and play the piano, and Jing Lan would be on the sidelines as a crowd watching.

In the evening, Shen Wan would go to Fuguitang again, and then come back to take a shower and change clothes.

Every night after Jing Lan bathed in Shen Wan, she would be called to watch the night.Since she went to study in the small study in the south building, Shen Wan never asked An Chun and An Dong to stay overnight.

This gave Jing Lan the idea that she was living with Shen Wan.

However, this kind of cohabitation is different from cohabitation in the general sense, after all, she did not eat and sleep with Shen Wan.

This kind of life lasted for seven or eight days, and Jing Lan hadn't felt bored yet, nor had she thought of going downstairs for a walk.

Probably because she was accompanied by such a gentle, considerate and beautiful young lady like Shen Wan all day long, which made Jing Lan, who is greedy for beauty, very satisfied, so she was willing to stay in the small study on the south floor, where she was everywhere. don't want to go.

During this period, Cui Zhu asked An Chun if Jing Lan was haggard, if she felt that reading and writing in the south tower was like a year, and if she begged the master to let her go downstairs.

Because An Chun wanted to accompany Shen Wan to the Fugui Hall with An Dong to pay her respects, serve Shen Wan to eat and bathe, the two of them would go to the South Tower every day, so they would naturally meet Jing Lan, and they knew Jing Lan's situation quite well.Cuizhu is different, since she said goodbye to Jinglan in the south building, she never went up there again, of course she couldn't see Jinglan, and she didn't know how Jinglan was doing.

After hearing Cui Zhu's question, An Chun sneered: "An Lan is doing well, not only is she not haggard, but I also feel that she is very energetic, and seems to have gained weight. Therefore, what do you mean by living like a year, it must be No, she didn't ask the young mistress to let her go downstairs. I heard from the young mistress that An Lan is very smart, and she can read, memorize and write in half an hour after teaching her words every day. The young mistress is very satisfied with this. An Lan has already learned sixteen characters a day..."

Cuizhu said "ah", very surprised, her round eyes widened, her mouth opened wide, and she didn't speak for a long time.

An Chun muttered softly: "It seems that An Lan is going to lift Auntie up first..."

"What did you say? What auntie?" Cui Zhu's ears were sharp, hearing such words in a daze, she hurriedly asked An Chun.

An Chun immediately said that she didn't say anything, but that Cui Zhu had listened to her, and she asked An Chun to comb her peony hair to test whether she had learned it.

"Oh, okay, I'm here to comb it for my sister. If I don't comb well, please give me some advice."

"Okay, come and comb it for me."

……

A newcomer named An Lan, a maid brought back from Shen's other courtyard by the young lady, studied hard in the small study in the south building, and the news that she didn't go downstairs for seven or eight days soon spread throughout the Xiao family.

When everyone heard this, some praised it, some hated it, and some even got angry.

The one who praised was of course Tang. She said that she was right in seeing the person, and the children born by Aunt Lan in the future must be good, because Aunt Lan is so smart and eager to learn.

Tang already regarded Jing Lan as her son's future aunt.

Of course, Wu and Tang Duanshu are the ones who are jealous. They feel that Jinglan is a stumbling block to realize their plan.Since Jing Lan was always on the south tower and by Shen Wan's side, they had no way to harm Jing Lan.Hearing Tang's praise of Jing Lan and what Aunt Lan said, the hearts of the two of them were bleeding.

As for the angry one, it was Xiao Ruyu.

She always thought that only she was qualified to accompany her sister-in-law to read, write, play chess and play the piano all day long.

What happened to that maid named An Lan? How could she accompany her sister-in-law to do those things.

She also heard that An Lan's maid hadn't gone downstairs for seven or eight days, and had been in the small study in the south building. Except for coming to the mother's room in the morning and evening, sister-in-law was always with that maid.

The most unbelievable thing is that everyone said that the maid will be taken over by the eldest brother and become an aunt in the future.

Since she is going to be the eldest brother's aunt, shouldn't she be someone that sister-in-law doesn't like? Why does sister-in-law teach her to read and write, and get tired of being with her.

For some reason, Xiao Ruyu just felt that the sister-in-law and that maid were a little tired.

And that maid took her place in sister-in-law's heart.

No wonder in the past few days, I ran into my sister-in-law at my mother's place by chance. After greeting my mother, she said goodbye and left.

It turned out that she was worried about that maid, so she left in a hurry without talking to herself.

Because some time ago, after Shen Wan came back from worshiping Buddha in Qixia Temple, she stayed with her sister-in-law for two days, and was dragged back by her mother and scolded her.She was honest for seven or eight days and didn't go to see her sister-in-law, so she was the last to hear about Shen Wan teaching Jing Lan to study and Jing Lan didn't go downstairs for seven or eight days.

After hearing about it, she couldn't sit still anymore, she wanted to see what was so great about that maid named An Lan, that she was favored like her sister-in-law.

She recalled that when her sister-in-law had just come back from Qixia Temple, she went to see her, but there was a little maid who was pleasing to the eye sitting in front of her, beating her legs. orchid.

At that time, she only had her sister-in-law in her eyes, and she didn't pay much attention to An Lan.

Unexpectedly, seven or eight days later, An Lan would become a celebrity in front of her sister-in-law, and her sister-in-law and An Lan would do things together that only her sister-in-law did with her before.

Isn't An Lan loved by her sister-in-law? She wanted to slap An Lan in the face to let An Lan know her identity.

So the next morning, Xiao Ruyu skipped class. She told the female teacher that she had a stomachache and needed to go to the toilet, but she skipped.

At that time, Shen Wan went to the Fuguitang where the Tang family lived to say hello, but she was not in the south building.

Xiao Ruyu slipped to the Mandarin Duck Building familiarly, and when she was about to go up to the south building, two maids came up to stop her timidly at the stairs and told her: "Young Mistress ordered that no one is allowed to go up when she is not in the Mandarin Duck Building." downstairs, and no one is allowed to go downstairs."

"Presumptuous, don't you two have eyes? You don't know who I am? In Xiao's house, there is no place I can't go, get out of the way!"

Xiao Ruyu is a person spoiled by her parents and elder brothers, how could she be stopped by two maids.Besides, she sneaked here this time while her sister-in-law was away, just to make a face of that maid named An Lan. If she didn't achieve her goal, how could she go back.

While coddling the two maids who stopped her at the stairs, she pushed them away and went upstairs arbitrarily.

The two maids who guarded the stairs according to Shen Wan's order knew Xiao Ruyu's strength, hesitated for a while, and finally dared not stop her, let her run up the stairs.

Xiao Ruyu was very familiar with the small study room in the south building, so she walked over and pushed open the door of the study room.

At that time, Jing Lan was seriously writing in the study, Shen Wan assigned her homework before going out, writing more than 100 words taught recently, three for each word.

It has been more than half an hour since Shen Wan left, and she has only written less than half of it.

Hearing that the study door was pushed open, Jing Lan raised her head to see who it was, the footsteps of the person coming did not sound like Shen Wan's.

After seeing Xiao Ruyu, Jing Lan put down the brush in her hand. She still remembered that the girl in front of her, who was about the same age as herself, was the young lady of Xiao's family, Shen Wan's sister-in-law. Zhiyuan also said a few words.

Jing Lan didn't forget her identity. When she saw the young lady of the Xiao family, of course she wanted to come out from behind the red sandalwood book case and salute Xiao Ruyu.

Xiao Ruyu didn't cry out immediately, she paced around Jing Lan who was kneeling, putting her hands on her side and doing a blessing ceremony.

After a while she said: "You are really lucky to be brought into Xiao's house by my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law has favored me and taught you this and that. My sister-in-law treats you so well. When you become my elder brother's concubine After you get married, you have to remember my sister-in-law's kindness to you, and don't use dirty methods to deal with her."

Jing Lan originally bent her knees and lowered her head, but when she heard what Xiao Ruyu said, she immediately raised her head, straightened her body, looked at her and asked, "What did you say?"

However, Xiao Ruyu seemed to disdain to answer Jing Lan's words, and continued to say: "According to me, slaves and maidservants of your background are lowly. Is it useful to learn how to read and write? When my elder brother comes back, you will be confiscated. Take good care of my elder brother in the room, get pregnant earlier, give birth to a son and a half daughter, and take care of your aunt, this is your life. In other words, what you should learn is how to serve a good man in the room..."

Before Xiao Ruyu finished speaking, Jing Lan's face was ashen, and she shouted: "Shut up!"

Xiao Ruyu sneered, and said, "Yo, are you annoyed? Hearing me tell the truth, he was so angry that his brain was burnt to a pulp. How dare you speak to me like this?"

Jing Lan was indeed very angry at this time, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was angry.

Anger surged back and forth in her chest, her body turned cold, and her blood flowed upwards, making her face and hair hot again.

Xiao Ruyu was indeed telling the truth, and she exposed the lies that Shen Wan had told her.

Jing Lan thought, no wonder Shen Wan wanted to let herself stay in the south building study to read and write, not letting herself go downstairs, and not letting others go upstairs, so she just didn't want what Xiao Ruyu said to be heard in her ears.What she once promised to herself doesn't count. She changed as she said, and pretended to be a good person. She was cheated miserably by her.

Thinking of this, Jing Lan didn't know how sad and painful she was, and she finally held back the tears from rolling down her eyes.

"Ruyu, what are you doing here? At this moment, shouldn't you be in the ethnology?" Suddenly, Shen Wan's voice came from the door of the study, and she could hear that she was a little surprised and a little unhappy.
