Chapter 61 Tempting Suggestions (Part 2)Seeing that the young master suddenly seemed to have a flash of insight, the teacher felt greatly relieved and praised him for being filial. He agreed to his request.
Xiao Yushuang's eyes rolled around, but she couldn't see any flaws in Lin Wanrong's performance. She asked the young master, "Cousin, did you really write this poem?"
Guo Wuchang, for the first time, felt proud in front of his cousin, and confidently replied, "Of course. Cousin, what do you think?"
Xiao Yushuang smiled and said, "If you had this talent during the imperial examination, you would not only become a jinshi, but also become the top scorer."
After hearing the praises from the teacher, the young master, and the second miss, Lin Wanrong suddenly remembered his conversation with Xiao Qingxuan by the Xuanwu Lake that day.
The Chinese nation has a long history, is hardworking, brave, and naturally intelligent. However, why were they repeatedly bullied in modern times? It's because they placed too much emphasis on liberal arts and not enough on science and engineering. Although Xiao Qingxuan was a bit arrogant, she had rare insight into this point. If it weren't for some misunderstandings, the two of them could have been good friends. It's just that he didn't like the fact that she would resort to violence at the slightest provocation.
The young master, who received praise from his cousin, was full of energy and didn't fall asleep during the teacher's lecture for the first time. The second miss also stayed to listen to the lecture and sat not far from Lin Wanrong.
Lin Wanrong was a servant, so while the young masters and misses sat down, he had to stand. Moreover, the teacher used many complicated terms, making him drowsy, and he ended up falling asleep while standing.
He was in a daze, but felt someone tugging at his clothes. When he opened his eyes, he saw that Xiao Yushuang had already sat down next to him and was pulling his clothes, saying, "Lin San, come and sit down."
"How can I sit in front of the young masters and misses?" Lin Wanrong quickly declined.
Xiao Yushuang saw through his false modesty and couldn't help but snort, "How come you didn't remember the young masters and misses when you misbehaved yesterday? If I tell you to sit down, then sit down. Don't you feel tired standing there?"
Lin Wanrong grinned and said, "Since Second Miss cares about me, I will obey your command."
Xiao Yushuang glared at him and said fiercely, "Who cares about you? Don't talk nonsense, you scoundrel."
Her face had a blush of shyness, unlike her stubbornness yesterday, as if Lin Wanrong's beating had tamed her temper. Although she was young, she was already extremely beautiful. Lin Wanrong was even stunned by her coyness. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ɴøvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
Seeing her leaning to one side, Lin Wanrong didn't dare to sit down properly and asked, "Does it still hurt there?"
Second Miss Xiao softly murmured, "Fortunately, I went to bed early yesterday, or else mother would have found out, and you would have been in trouble. But even if mother found out, I wouldn't say it was you who hit me."
"So, Second Miss is defending me like this? Thank you in advance." Lin Wanrong said carelessly.
Xiao Yushuang sighed, "Mother and sister don't have time to talk to me, and I don't have many friends. You can talk to me for a while. If mother punishes you, then I won't even have the last person to talk to."
Second Miss Xiao bit her lip, her eyebrows furrowed, with a hint of sadness on her delicate face, which made people feel sorry for her.
It turned out that this little girl considered him a friend. Lin Wanrong felt ashamed and said hurriedly, "Second Miss, since you consider me a friend, I won't decline. If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me. I am a righteous and loyal person and will definitely help if I can."
Xiao Yushuang covered her mouth and chuckled, "You have thick skin. How could I dare to ask anything of you? As long as you don't hit me again, I will be satisfied."
Speaking of hitting there, Second Miss Xiao subconsciously touched her buttocks, as if yesterday's hot feeling had returned.
Lin Wanrong looked at her small butt and chuckled inwardly, thinking, as long as this little girl doesn't provoke me, how could I hit her? I don't have a habit of bullying little girls.
The day passed in the study. Xiao Yushuang spoke more to Lin Wanrong after seeing him less fierce towards her. Fortunately, the teacher didn't expect much from the young ladies' studies, so he turned a blind eye to it and was even stricter towards the young master.
The young master heard his cousin chatting with Lin San behind him and felt itchy, but since he had been a good student today and had finally established a new image, he naturally didn't want to ruin it. So, he endured it all day.
Finally, in the evening, when the teacher went to the restroom, the young master quickly turned to Xiao Yushuang and asked, "Cousin, where are we going to play later?"
Xiao Yushuang shook her head and said, "Mother said that sister will be back tonight, so I have to wait for her to come back."
Young Master Guo's spirits lifted as he said, "Is Cousin Yuruo coming back tonight? Why don't I go with you to wait for her?"
Xiao Yushuang nodded and said with a smile, "No problem. However, Sister said last time that when she came back, she wanted to see how much of the Book of Poetry you could recite. Since Cousin is saying this, you must be confident."
Young Master Guo's face changed suddenly and he hastily laughed, "Ah, I just remembered. I made an appointment with Prince Wang and Prince Li to study some poetry tonight. So I won't go to meet Cousin Yuruo. Please apologize to her for me."
Xiao Yushuang nodded and rose from her seat, saying with a charming smile, "Then I'll leave first."
Young Master Guo was about to reply, but he saw that Xiao Yushuang was looking at Lin Wanrong. She had actually said that sentence to Lin Wanrong.
"Is she talking about me?" Lin Wanrong felt a little surprised by the attention from his mistress. It was not common for a master to take the initiative to say goodbye to a servant. The fact that he had reached this level as a house servant showed that he had some power in Second Miss Xiao's heart.
After Xiao Yushuang left, Young Master Guo's excitement disappeared. Lin Wanrong knew what was on his mind and asked in surprise, "Young Master, Cousin's return is a big event. How could you not go to meet her?"
Young Master Guo cried, "Lin San, do you think I don't want to go? It's just that Cousin Yuruo is intelligent and capable. She wants me to read more books and always makes me recite poetry whenever she sees me. But until now, I can only recite four lines from the Book of Poetry. How can I dare to see her? I'd rather stay here and listen to the teacher's lecture."
Guo Wu Chang had probably suffered from this kind of torture many times. Looking at his distressed expression, Lin Wanrong couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. He was tired of studying to this extent. This young master was quite fierce.
"Sister is doing this for your own good. As long as you study hard and obtain a degree, if you have any requests in the future, you can ask Madam for help, and she will naturally agree." Lin Wanrong said.
"Lin San, you're a good guy. I won't hide it from you. I really don't have much interest in these books. However, those two lines of poetry you taught me just now are really good. Can you teach me a few more?" Young Master Guo tried to please Lin Wanrong.
"No problem. Your business is my business, Young Master." Lin Wanrong patted his chest and said, "I will do my best to help you achieve your wish."
Young Master Guo smiled with joy. Seeing that Second Miss had already left, he had no intention of pretending to be a good student anymore. He walked back and forth in the room, looking out the window from time to time.
Lin Wanrong knew that Young Master Guo's mind was no longer there and said, "Young Master, listening to this teacher's lecture is really boring. Why don't we go out and look for some inspiration?"
