Ms. Zheng repeated, “Wouldn’t anybody like to sit by her? Come on! Anyone?” Some female students sneered, some knew the reason didn’t say anything, some were confused. All in all, no one wanted to sit by her.
It was not supposed to be a big problem to sit without order. But Ms. Zheng felt awkward for getting no response. Therefore, she repeated her question again and again. She asked every line of girls to sit there. However, it seemed that they were all against her on purpose. Eventually, no one moved to there.
Luo Baiqiong and her cousin laughed out low, and then more girls followed to laugh with handkerchiefs coving their mouths. Even someone made catcalls. It was obvious that the catcalls didn’t aim at Ms. Zheng because the first rule of Chengxu Academy was “respecting the teachers and teaching.”
Peng Jian had looked at the girl with over-painted red cheeks for many times, and he suddenly recognized that she was his Third Sister. They hadn’
“December, 17th; 30th year of Hongwu Period; it is not suitable for people who was born in the Year of the Ox (in Chinese zodiac) to handle affairs in the west. Today is the sunniest day of this month. The sun is like gold on the ground and makes people feel warm. One side adjoins mountains and rivers; the nature is quiet and beautiful. Another side has the murmuring of running water and bamboo grove; it’s elegant and fresh. Ah! The water is as clear as a mirror and the green grass look as if it has just been washed. The birds on the shore are pecking. All this is surrounded by green hills in the distance. This peaceful scene is as poetic as a first love. When you look up, you are watching the lake; when you look down, you are missing Meng Xuan. What a good poem! And it is written on the back hill of Chengxu Academy and named Qing Dairy of having Time Travel to the Ming Dynasty. What do you think? Is my classical Chinese very good? Does it go even farther than The Orchid Pavilion? O
“Left hand.” He Danggui smiled and said the answer. Then she poured a glass of wine directly and handed it to Liao Qing’er. It seemed that she was confident with her judgment.Liao Qing’er spread out her left hand incredibly. A small porcelain man with the size of a broad bean lay in her palm. She couldn’t help pouting. She said, “What’s the matter? Why do you always guess right? Do you have super power? Is it clairvoyance or something? Eh, if you really have super power, let’s go to the gambling house!”He Danggui picked up the small porcelain man with her fingers gracefully and played it with her fingertips. She explained to Liao Qing’er, “It’s because you can’t hide it. Every time you hide it in your left hand, your eyes will incline slightly to your right hand. The middle finger of your left fist has a little more concave than that of right fist, as if you are afraid of the small man flying away. Clairvoyance? You mean I can guess what’s behind the boar
“Damn it!” Liao Qing’er kept her eyes open and said, “How could it be? Even if your stepmother dislikes you, as long as your biological father meets you, he definitely likes you!”He Danggui still shook her head with a sense of alienation and obstinacy in her eyes. Liao Qing’er lovingly gave her a big hug, which made the people gulp on the other side of the river. Liao Qing’er said sincerely, “Your personality, temper, appearance and ability are all preeminent. Even Zhu’s Family could not teach such a princess like you. Now the only regret is your family background. Why not try to change it?”“Would you like some wine, Miss?” A boy of academy who took charge of boiling plum wine carried a basket and stood behind them. He Danggui took a pot of wine, a dish of sour plum and peanut with sauce. And she gave that boy 500 qian as gratuity. Then he happily received and ran away.They had a drink together, and Liao Qing’er still persuaded, “Your biolog
“Live version of live sex? Uh… Xiaoyi, are you alright?” Liao Qing’er asked carefully, “Speaking of these things, you must be very upset. I’m sorry. I just asked for curiosity, and you’ve been answering it all the time. You’ve also told me about your father abusing your mother. Forget it, I’m not curious anymore. The thing of changing the identity of the legitimate daughter can be considered later. If this is not possible, I will ask my parents accept you as an adoptive daughter, and you can get married better than now.”He Danggui smiled and said, “Qing, your family doesn’t have issues like this, so you don’t know much about the struggle of these wives and concubines. And you can’t accept the basic common sense that women are inferior to men. Actually, the status of some concubines is not much higher than maids. To be specific, the masters of the whole family are only the Lord and the Madam. It is also a duty for the concubines to serve them. Many madams like to use th
Mr. Bao, a pupil of President Wei, was about 30 years old. He became a Jinshi in the 22th year of Hongwu Period. He became an inferior official when he was young, but he was dismissed because he offended the superior official. He knew that being upright was impractical in officialdom, so he stayed in Chengxu Academy and became a teacher.Compared with the officialdom, the air of the academy was fresh and it was really like a paradise. The nepotism existed in the academy, because the students’ family pulled the strings in order to make sure their children were taken good care of. For example, President Wei had asked Mr. Bao to take good care of Luo Baiqian several years ago, because Senior Lord Luo Maitong had helped him in his early age. The benefactor of the teacher was his, so Mr. Bao genuinely cared about Luo Baiqian, especially in his studies, and then they established a very close relationship.After a hot topic of “the public denunciation of The First
Their breathing was gently and intertwined. Then they saw what their most concerned things from each other’s eyes. When they found the exact feeling, they closed their eyes and kissed at the same time.Their hearts were so warm that they didn’t want to move or have further actions. It was better to snuggle up to each other like this all the time and feel each other from the soft lips. In the past three years, they must have experienced a lot. Now they stood in front of each other undamaged, so they enjoyed the chest closed to each other. And their hearts must be melted. Everything could be forgiven.It had better be dark, so that he could hug her all the time, and not go anywhere.Suddenly, his hands moved on her, from the neckline to the shoulder, to the chest, to the girdle, and then to the skirt. When his hands tried to continue moving down, it was out of reach. So, he had to leave her lips and gentle eyes for a while, and then he leaned ove
He Danggui covered her mouth, shaking her head like a rattle-drum to refuse his approach, “Those 2 times just now were accidents. Don’t do that to me anymore. I will be 14 years old after the lunar new year. Don’t hold me as I was a child, and don’t treat me well. Emm… I already have an engagement.”“What did you say?” Meng Xuan forced her hand apart hardly and asked nervously, “Who is he?”He Danggui shook her head and didn’t want to say anything more. He had been gone for 3 years. There was nothing strange about her engagement. Therefore, she covered her mouth and closed her eyes again, as if she was a clay figure that could not speak or see.Meng Xuan rocked her several times and said anxiously, “Go to ask Madam Luo to break off the engagement. I’ll ask my father to propose marriage for me. Actually, I… I’ve seen you take a bath and... I’ve wiped your back, so you’re mine, and you can’t marry anyone else.”He Danggui was surpris
“No way!” The voice of Qian Shuixian was not as loud as before, but she still said uncompromisingly, “Mr. Bao, now my sister has not died, and that love letter is not her suicide paper, so you can’t read it. Chengxu Academy is an elegant place full of scholarliness. I don’t believe that you dare to open and read the love letter of a young girl in public! He Danggui, why do you bully my sister and me like this? Are there any grudges between us? If you have a grudge just because of one string, you are too narrow-minded!”Mr. Bao and Ms. Zheng looked at each other, and then asked Zong Qiao, “Zong Qiao, does the letter mention the reason why Qian Mudan drowned herself? Where do you put that letter?”Zong Qiao could not answer at first, and then said with a painful look, “In fact, I have not opened the letter, and I intend to return it as soon as I have a chance. Please see. The double seals of the sealing-wax and wax oil on it are intact.” He handed a light-yel
