After that, there were no more incidents, and the ladies had to listen to another play before they dispersed. Shen Lian was left behind by Old Lady Shen and she even sent someone to call for Aunt Cui. Xiu Ying knew that Old Madam Shen was probably scolding Aunt Cui. She smiled leisurely as she prepared to return to the courtyard with her mother.

At this time, the little girl came to report that the third master wanted to call Xiu Ying over.

When Xiu Ying heard this, she knew that her third uncle wanted her to practice. A guest had come to her house in the morning, so he would not let her go after he had left.

Xiu Ying's small face was scrunched up. Yesterday, because she wasn't able to get out her poem, her third uncle had knocked her out. Was he unable to escape today?

Madam Feng looked at her daughter's worried face and laughed. She felt her daughter was very cute, so she gave a few instructions to the screen and urged her to leave quickly.

Unexpectedly, as Xiu Ying walked out to the veranda, she saw Du Yicheng following behind a tall man, while her father was talking to a man wearing a jade crown.

That was Crown Prince Yongping …

Xiu Ying immediately recognized the person. She pursed her lips and wondered if she should go after them. Master Shen had already seen her and even called out to her, "Little girl Ying Ying, why are you here?"

Xiu Ying had no choice but to step forward and bow gracefully towards Master Shen. She was introduced to saluting the son of the Marquis of Yongping, as well as to saluting the little overlord who had pinched her not long ago.

Du Yicheng grinned at her.

Xiu Ying could feel the malicious intent in his smile, and his white teeth also became gloomy.

Why was this person so dangerous?!

Xiu Ying hid behind Master Shen, she subconsciously felt that it would be better to stay away from him.

Great Master Shen did not notice that her third brother had called for someone to come over. However, his expression became slightly indifferent and he waved his hand for her to leave.

Before Xiu Ying turned around, Du Yicheng also waved at her with a smile, making her turn around and walk even faster. Du Yicheng's smile remained on his face, and his gaze continued on her until she disappeared. Grand Master Shen seemed to have sensed this and was secretly astonished.

Why did it seem like the son of the Marquis of Yongping was different to his daughter?

In the end, he decided to ask his daughter later. If he could get closer to Crown Prince Yongping, it would be for the best. However, just as this thought flashed through his mind, he felt that it was absurd. His daughter was only so young, and even the son of the Marquis of Yongping was only so young. He was truly in a hurry to achieve success, and was a bit muddle-headed.

"The Min family must be following the path of Elder Xu. I'm not too sure about what happened that year either. But it should not be a conflict with your Shen family, just tell your second brother to act steadily first. " The Marquis of Yongping spoke to Master Shen in a leisurely manner.

Only then did Old Master Shen collect his thoughts and concentrate on saying a few words of thanks. The Marquis Yongping smiled and patted his shoulder. "No need to thank me. It's just a matter of a few words, it's worth your thanks. Oh, that's right. For today's poetry meet, remember to give me a copy of the entire book. "

"Definitely." Old Master Shen bowed towards him, then escorted him to the door.

Xiu Ying had already arrived at Shen Jun's courtyard. When she saw that he was sitting on the brick bed, which was completely empty, she was a little surprised. What about the table?

Shen Jun smiled indifferently and beckoned to her. She obediently stepped forward and sat down opposite him. For some reason, when she was eight years old, she was afraid that her third uncle would teach her. Why was it that when she was eighteen, she was still so afraid?

Perhaps when facing him, she really had the pressure of facing a teacher. Slapping her palm or whatever, it was really …

"Does it hurt?"

Shen Junxiao's slightly hoarse voice rang out. Perhaps he was about to reach adulthood, but his voice also changed a little. Xiu Ying's imagination ran wild after being beaten. It was only after a moment did she finally understand what he meant.

"It doesn't hurt, but it's been a while since I've been pinched like this. I'm a bit angry." In her memory, it had indeed been a long time.

She was outspoken and rational. Shen Jun laughed as he recalled the scene of her ruthlessly stomping Du Yicheng. He felt like laughing again. 'This little girl, at her age, is she a person who doesn't fear the heavens or the earth? '

Shen Jun smiled as he couldn't remember. Right now, he could remember a lot of things about her even after she turned 15. At that time, her personality was very reserved, just like her mother. She was very dignified, but no matter what, she still met an animal just like her elder brother!

Shen Jun smiled as he thought of the past, and when he thought of the news of her death, his entire aura turned sharp.

Xiu Ying didn't know that her Third Uncle was the same as her, someone who had lived once before. She only felt that he had become unhappy, and thought that she had said something wrong as she looked at her nervously.

The half-grown girl's eyes were as round as a frightened fawn's, and Shen realized that he had scared her. "If anyone dares to bully you in the future, just hit them back," he said, with a soothing smile. If you cannot defeat him, stay away from him. If you tell me, I will support you.

Xiu Ying opened her mouth in surprise. Why did her third uncle feel that something wasn't quite right?

Is this something you should teach a girl?

The girl's thoughts were too easy to guess, and everything was written on her face in front of him. Shen Jun smiled and caressed her head, "Uncle, I hope you won't feel wronged."

Xiu Ying nodded.

She also felt that sometimes, having a strong fist was also reasonable! Just like last time when she beat Shen Lian up.

He had to protect them in this life no matter what. Even though his sister-in-law had suffered a lot, the Shen family's development today and in the future was all thanks to her. Otherwise, with his big brother's utilitarian character, he would have long been harmed by others, and when he becomes a third grade official in the future!

The two of them came to a consensus, and Shen sent someone to move the table.

Xiu Ying wanted to cry, but there were no tears.

Shen acted like he didn't see her pitiful face and just leaned back against the pillow with his eyes closed. The wound on the back of his head had not completely healed, and the bruise had become the size of a fingernail. However, today, he had spent quite a bit of his energy in taking care of other people, so he felt a bit of pain.

For the sake of not getting hit again, Xiu Ying used all of her strength. All she wanted was her wrist to be strong enough to write steadily. If she was beaten up again, she would lose all face.

His hard work was not a waste of his time. Normally, he would slap her on the palm three times, but today … He was hit.

After Xiu Ying left, Shen Junxiao stood by the window with the still tender handwriting. The sunlight shone on his face, dispelling much of the coldness of the evening sun, revealing a rare warm look on his face.

He watched in silence, the corners of his lips curving into a faint curve. This little girl, her improvement was really fast. It was because she didn't put her heart into it. Her calligraphy was two times better than the one from before.

Xiu Ying walked with the multicolored light back to Feng's courtyard. Inside the house, there was a little girl kneeling on the ground. Her face was light, and for a moment, no one could tell what she was thinking.

What happened?

"Mother, daughter is back." Puzzled, Xiu Ying entered the house and sat beside Madam Feng. He could clearly see the person kneeling on the ground.

The girl kneeling on the ground turned out to be someone from Aunt Cui's courtyard. She remembered her name was Sue'er, and just like her name, she had caught Aunt Cui's eye.

"If that's the case, then it's indeed your fault. Then everyone will be given five slates." Madam Feng patted her daughter's hand and spoke.

"Madam!" Soo'er's face paled as she cried out in grief. "It's not that this servant wants to excuse himself, but that this auntie needs someone to serve her at this very moment …"
