At this moment, Nangong Mu and Madame Lin only felt that their daughter was childish. The two of them looked at each other with smiles on their faces. Nangong Mu said, "Yes, father believes in you."
"Then Daddy …" Nangong Yue's smile suddenly disappeared.
She stared at Nangong Mu without blinking and said seriously, "Daddy, you won't disappoint mother, Yue'er, and elder brother. You will also become our pride, right?"
She knew that her father didn't understand what she meant, but she still couldn't help but look for that illusory promise.
Nangong Mu was stunned for a moment. He felt that his daughter was a little strange. However, when he looked at his daughter's innocent eyes, he felt that he was overthinking it.
He rubbed her head and said with a smile, "Of course, I will definitely become the father that Yue'er and Xin'er will be proud of."
After the three of them chatted about their family's matters for a while, Nangong Mu and his wife left together.
Nangong Yue watched as they left. In her previous life, she had seen many things flash by and her gaze remained on her mother. If mother could be this happy forever, how great would that be!
It definitely could! Since the heavens allowed her to be reborn, she had to change her mother, brother, and the fate of the entire family! The first thing she had to do was cure her brother.
In her previous life, even though his older brother had disappeared, his grandfather still hadn't given up on searching for a cure. In the end, his grandfather did find one!
Grandfather told her about the treatment, and he also ended a wish. She still remembered the treatment method. The reason why her brother's mind was so low was because when he hit his head, blood clots formed in his brain, blocking the blood vessels in his brain.
All she needed to do was to use acupuncture and a drug to disperse the blood clots in his brain, and her brother would be able to recover.
To her, this acupuncture technique was not that difficult. The difficulty lay in the fact that it required several types of rare medicinal herbs …
Glimmers danced in Nangong Yue's eyes. She suddenly thought of something. Based on her calculations, it should still be a little more than ten days away. She had to get the medicine!
She secretly swore in her heart and made up her mind in the blink of an eye.
The next day, Nangong Xin stayed in his room to recuperate. Nangong Mu and his wife had already arrived at Nangong Yue's Black Bamboo Courtyard.
They accompanied Nangong Yue to Rong An Hall to pay their respects to the Old Madame. However, they found out that almost all of their families were here — the first branch, the third branch, their unmarried fourth uncle … The entire family was almost all here, and more than half of the hall was occupied.
"Greetings to Grandmother from your granddaughter!"
"This son/daughter-in-law pays respects to mother!"
Old Madame waved her hands, indicating that they did not need to be overly courteous. "Quickly, sit down."
After a pause, she continued solemnly, "I have something to say today."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone instantly raised their heads and looked at the Old Madame with puzzled gazes. Only the people from the Zhao family that were already aware of the matter had calm expressions.
"Now that the young ladies in the rooms have grown up, the young misses of the other residences have started to learn zither, calligraphy, painting, and etiquette at this age".
"Our Nangong family cannot be left behind either. I plan to open up a school at home." A few days ago, I specially went to the capital to ask the famous female teacher — Fang Ru's residence to teach. Cheng'er, Yan'er, Yue'er and Shun'er, I hope that you can follow Master Fang and learn from her in the future. "
Cheng'er was the first daughter of Nangong Qin and Madam Zhao — Nangong Cheng. She was twelve years old this year, and was the oldest amongst the girls.
The Old Madame had carefully nurtured her, and had always been fond of her.
Yan'er was the second daughter of Nangong Qin. She was not very popular among the ladies. Usually, because she was born from a concubine, she would rarely talk to anyone. She did not even have a sense of existence at home.
Shun'er was the first daughter of the Third branch. She was one of the best among the girls, and her personality was similar to her mother's. She usually liked to be sharp and strong.
"Shun'er," a somewhat high-pitched female voice suddenly sounded out, "Why aren't you thanking your grandmother and aunt!" She was in her early twenties, and her body was slightly chubby. As she spoke, she gently pushed the little girl beside her.
The one who spoke was Nangong Yue's third aunt, Madam Huang. She was the wife of her third uncle, Nangong Ran. Because her third uncle was a b*stard, he was inferior to the Nangong family.
The girls lined up in a row and said in unison, "Thank you, Grandmother! Mother (Aunt)!" Their faces could not hide their joy.
Master Fang Ru! The most famous female teacher in the capital! She specifically teaches a lady who had yet to leave the pavilion.
It was said that the etiquette of the students she had taught were the most thorough, and they were all extraordinary. If they weren't selected to marry into a noble family, or into a noble family, then they would be chosen to serve the emperor.
At this moment, even someone as sharp as Madam Huang could not conceal the joy in her heart. She was glad that her daughter was able to have such an opportunity.
Nangong Yue was the only one who did not laugh. She quietly stood there, coldly watching everything that was happening, completely at odds with the excited atmosphere in the surroundings.
It was the same in her previous life. The reason why the Zhao Family invited Fang Ru as a lecturer was so that all the ladies in the clan could have a better lecturer, but in reality, it was just for Nangong Cheng alone!
Only Nangong Cheng had received the Successor Disciple, while the others were merely listening in on the side!
However, this had nothing to do with Nangong Yue. In her previous life, when she had been chosen as the third prince's consort, she had long since learned everything that needed to be learned.
As a result, she didn't care about this so-called best female teacher in the capital.
"Cheng'er, Yan'er, Yue'er, Shun'er," Madame Zhao curled the corner of her lips, unable to conceal the pleased expression in her eyes, "Our daughter's studies will officially begin in three days time".
At that time, we will be teaching Qin, Chess, Painting, Female Etiquette. You must all prepare yourself. "In the future, after the sisters have eaten breakfast in their own courtyard, they will come over to Rongan Hall to pay their respects."
"Grandmother, granddaughters thank you for your concern." the girls said in unison.
"Mother," Nangong Mu suddenly took a step forward, attracting everyone's gaze. "Yue'er has just recovered from a serious illness and is still weak. Please forgive me for caring for my daughter as a father. Let Yue'er rest for another half a month."
"Uncle, you're right." The Huang Family's daughter, Nangong Shun, who was ranked fourth, immediately responded, "Looking at how pale third sister is, she should be resting more.
She had a dignified and loving appearance, but in her heart, she thought that if Nangong Yue left half a month of lessons, she would definitely not be able to catch up to her.
Thinking up to here, her eyes flashed with a eagerness look, but she didn't know that her little thoughts couldn't escape the eyes of the people who wanted to see it.
The Old Madame quickly cast a glance at Nangong Shun before turning to Nangong Yue, "Yue'er, what do you think?"
