Skillful Wife of Military - C78 Only know "ugly"
“Tsk.” Xu Hui felt that this matter was too disgusting and could not help but interject, “Didn’t you agree when Xiu Er left? Besides, as a parent and relative, shouldn’t you think about your own juniors? Now that Xiu Er is doing quite well, why are you scolding him like that? ”
This matter was not Xiao Xiuer’s fault in the first place, the reason they were so angry at Xiao Xiuer was actually because their hearts were unbalanced and not willing to accept the fact. Xu Hui could now see clearly that the Imperial Examinations were mainly about writing. If one could write a good article, he would be able to reach the peak in one fell swoop.
However, writing something that could make one’s eyes shine required a certain amount of foundation. In addition to those fixed four books and five scriptures, one also had to have their own insight into them. In this aspect, it was very easy to reflect one’s character.
And their Third Uncle’s character …
Just thinking about it made Xu Hui want to laugh. She always remembered the first time he saw him, he was eating by herself on the table, leaving the kids to the side. Not to mention the dirty things she did later, just by this point, Xu Hui could already conclude that he would never be able to pass the exam in her entire lifetime.
Xiao Li’s disease and He’s also stopped talking. It was unknown what the two of them were thinking as they sat on stools. However, Xu Hui thought that he would be fine this time.
Xiao Xiuer left the place with red eyes. Xu Hui felt bored and was too lazy to continue interacting with the two people she hated so she turned around to leave. Just as she reached the door, she saw Niuniu running out.
Xu Hui felt that Niu Niu was very obedient and had already washed up quietly. Xu Hui originally wanted to take Niu Niu to eat something so he could teach her how to write, but when she arrived in front of He’s, he heard him say, “Truly laughing to death, I really think of this as my own sister. And she’s raised to be so white and fat. ”
Looking at He’s, Xu Hui was annoyed. She held Niu Niu’s hand and said without looking back, “I think this child is pitiful. It’s better to be fat than skinny.”
With that, Xu Hui left without a care for He’s’s expression. Niu Niu was also a smart girl. She only asked Xu Hui after they arrived at the kitchen, “Sister-in-law, why are they here again?”
In fact, Xu Hui wanted to know as well. Although Third Uncle failed in his Imperial examinations, it was not as if they could not even stay at home. They did not come with a request, and other than making a ruckus, they did not have anything else.
After thinking of a more suitable explanation, Xu Hui pinched Niu Niu’s face and said, “Since bad people can’t die, they will come back every once in a while.”
Xu Hui took her to the lobby to practice writing after dinner. In Xu Hui’s eyes, no matter who it was, there was a need to learn. Niuniu was still young, so he had to hurry. Plus, Niu Niu liked him too, so Xu Hui felt it was fine to teach her a little.
It just so happened that someone was about to show off in front of him. After writing for a while, He’s walked over, her eyes staring at what Niu Niu wrote and her mouth not sparing anyone, “What a terrible writing.”
As he said this, he used his dirty hands to rub the paper Niuniu wrote him on. As he wiped the paper with his hand, he caught a black streak on it. It looked like a beautiful woman with a black scar on her face.
Xu Hui was slightly unhappy. Just as she was about to tell He’s to stay away from him, Niu Niu had already opened her mouth and said, “Third Aunt, you don’t know how to write this. Do you know what this character is?” After saying that, Niuniu pointed at the words on her paper.
Niu Niu practiced four words today, ‘Worry, smelly, ugly, and worry.’
The word “ugly” could be seen frequently in the Twelve Life Codex. In the previous village, there was still someone called “Li Chou”. Later on, that person died, so basically everyone in the village recognized the word “ugly”.
Niu Niu placed her finger under “Worry”. He’s looked at it for a long time but still couldn’t understand it, so Niu Niu happily laughed, “Look at Third Aunt, do you know anyone other than ugly?”
He’s knew that Ugly was scolding, and his face was burning. He initially wanted to slap Xu Hui angrily, but he found out that Xu Hui was still staring at him with her eyes wide open. He’s was a little afraid, so she quickly got up and left.
When he could no longer see the back of He’s, Xu Hui smiled. Niuniu could laugh under the guise of a child, but Xu Hui had to pretend. He had been holding it in for so long that it had made him uncomfortable.
Niuniu smiled and looked up at Xu Hui. “You think I’m good?” Xu Hui smiled and nodded, praising Niuniu. Niu Niu curled her lips and said unhappily, “What do we do? We don’t want them to come at all. I heard you guys arguing in the morning. ”
Xu Hui sighed. He could not stop them from coming over. Luckily, Niuniu had been taken away by him. Otherwise, if she were to say it more seriously in such a family, she might end up suffering from mental distortions.
“But they are also our grandparents and aunts. We shouldn’t even think of bullying them; all we need to do is to think of a way to protect ourselves from being taken advantage of.” Xu Hui comforted Niuniu softly.
Niuniu was still a child after all, so Xu Hui stopped thinking about it and continued writing with her head down.
Seeing that there was probably no more trouble, Xu Hui stood up and went to the warehouse to check on her loom. However, she still needed some silk and clothes. Xu Hui had had these before, but she did not bring them with him when she came. Therefore, it was difficult to make a move now.
Since things had to be resolved, Xu Hui decided to ask Cheng Yan. Thinking about this, Xu Hui went out of her house to look for Cheng Yan after talking to Niu Niu.
Today, Cheng Yan’s store was opened as usual, but of course, there were also very few customers. Cheng Yan had been bored guarding this shop all day, so she was very happy to see Xu Hui. After bringing Xu Hui inside, Cheng Yan said with a smile, “Why did you remember it again today?”
Xu Hui felt that it was not good for him to ask others for things, but Cheng Yan was the only one in this place that needed something. Cheng Yan was also a smart person. Seeing Xu Hui’s expression, she knew that Xu Hui had something that she needed her help with, but was embarrassed.
Cheng Yan laughed: “Did something happen? As long as it’s within my ability, you can say it directly. ”
Xu Hui pinched his fingers and said, “I just want to ask if you have the material you need for weaving and the pattern for making clothes.”
