Your Highness, the Empress Runs Away Again - C225 steeled heart
“If Madam doesn’t believe me, come, Du Ying, recite the ‘Ode of Mulan’ for your mother.” Teacher Li looked expectantly at Du Ying.
Du Ying thought about it for a moment. ‘Fine, I’ll carry it then. I can’t carry it in the academy, it won’t happen once I get home. That would be too scary.
When the Li family’s couple heard their daughter recite every word correctly, they were astonished. Why? Was it smoke coming from the grave of their ancestors? How could this child carry this?
Teacher Li was exceptionally pleased. “How is it?” Do you two have anything else to say? This old man knows that sending a child to study in the city requires some money, but you only have this one daughter after all. You still need to count on her to come and give you your life in the future.
In short, Teacher Li was determined to let Du Ying succeed, but the soul of the red tassel in Du Ying’s body was a little hesitant. After all, it was only temporary that she could keep her body. When she comes out of her body, what would Du Ying do if she wasn’t as smart as before? Isn’t this harming someone else?
Du Ying’s father was overjoyed to see her daughter like this. “Teacher’s words are too serious. We were blind in the past, so we didn’t realize that this child is a piece of unpolished jade. Now, with Teacher’s advice, we will definitely remember your teachings and properly nurture her.”
If their own daughter could become a talented girl, then their Du Family would also be extremely famous, wouldn’t they have a great reputation?
This kind of feeling was comparable to the feeling of a pie falling from the sky.
“That’s right.” Upon hearing Du Ying’s father’s promise, Teacher Li relaxed. “You don’t need to worry about anything else. You two just prepare yourselves. In a few days, I’ll personally send her to the city.”
Madam Du quickly declined. “How can I inconvenience Teacher? You’re still too old, so it’s better if you don’t suffer too much. We’ll send you off.”
It was likely that Teacher Li was a man of his nature and wanted to become a genius.
“Madam, don’t say it like that. Du Ying is this old man’s student after all. This is called the beginning and the end.” Teacher Li was elated. With Du Ying’s talent, she would definitely become something great in the future. She, a former teacher, would also be able to bask in her glory. It was truly wonderful.
The couple saw that the old man had made up their minds, so they did not stop him. “Then I’ll have to trouble Teacher.”
It was their fortune to meet such a dutiful teacher. This Teacher Li was simply an exemplary representative of the world of teachers.
“It’s fine.” Teacher Li stood up and walked out of the room. “The purpose of our visit tonight is to explain this. You should prepare yourselves. After a few days, this old man will arrange for her to enter the city.”
“Yes, yes, yes. Teacher, take care.”
The old man’s figure disappeared into the boundless night. He was still humming along the way, and his mood could no longer be described with the word “good”. It should be described with the word “good”.
This is called looking for broken iron shoes without any trouble. Du Ying, Du Ying, the teacher will hand over his reputation to you for the rest of his life.
The Du Family turned around and stared at their daughter.
“I say, boss, are we really that smart? It’s a complete mess for her to recite an ancient poem like this, so a single wrong word is wrong. ” Madam Du was still doubtful and deeply suspected that the ‘Ode of Mulan’ that Du Ying was reciting was an illusion.
Du Ying’s father also frowned, “I think it’s because this child suddenly awakened. Do you remember that the son of Wild Boar Village’s Ergou can’t even speak when he’s five years old? When he’s nine years old, it’s really strange that he can recite Gu Shiwen like a dragon and dance when he writes. The teacher was ashamed of himself and didn’t dare to become his teacher.”
“I remember, I’ve seen that kid. He was pretty ugly, but he was really smart. He was so young, yet his speech was so gentle.” Back then, Madame Du was rather envious of him. She thought to herself, if her daughter had half of someone else’s, she would have burnt incense. Now, her dreams have come true.
“Yingying ah, dad and mom sent you to the city to study, are you willing?” Du Ying’s father asked with a smile.
This was not a request for her opinion at all, because no matter what she said, he would be sent to the city.
It was evident how persistent parents were towards their children.
Du Ying could only bitterly smile, “Since all of you have already decided, what else can I say?”
Fate made fools of people. He hoped that the real Du Ying wouldn’t blame him in the future.
After all, getting a better education in the city was not a bad thing for her.
When he went to sleep at night, Yun Luo this vixen walked in lightly like a ghost.
“How is it, my red tassel girl? Isn’t it good to be a child prodigy?”
Du Ying sat on the bed and twisted her fingers, “Don’t mock me.”
“How can this be called sarcastic? “I’m going to congratulate you. Being held in the palm of everyone’s hands is something that many people dream of.”
Even though fame and fortune were illusory, people still liked to pursue fame and fortune. Why? Just to be respected by thousands of people and enjoy that incomparable feeling of beauty.
This was also the reason why many people wanted to be emperors. Once they became emperors, they would be able to enjoy limitless amounts of wealth and be worshipped by the people of the world. Then, their vanity and pride would be satisfied.
“Fine fine, whatever you say, in a few days I won’t be Du Ying.”
The mess in the future would be left to True Du Ying to clean up. She was so unlucky to have met with such a troublesome fox spirit?
However, our nosy fox spirit asked a question, “Hong Ying, are you still the same as before, wanting to turn into ashes?”
“I …” She seemed a little hesitant.
This was good, but it meant that Cloudfall’s plan had already been half completed.
“Since you are hesitating, it means that you are already wavering. I see that you …” Before Yun Luo could finish, she was interrupted by Du Ying.
“Don’t try to guess at me, I was just distracted for a moment.” Du Ying didn’t seem to want to compromise with her words. Although what she was seeing now were indeed many beautiful things, but when she thought back to what happened 30 years ago, there was still a lingering hatred in her heart.
The happiness of a child, how could it resist the cruelty of growing up?
Perhaps most children are happy and happy in their childhood, but who can guarantee that when they mature, everything will be smooth sailing and harmonious and blissful?
Yun Luo teased, “That’s good. Since you’ve decided not to change, there’s no need for you to continue. I’ll let you leave her body now and help you achieve your goal.”
Du Ying quickly looked up and stared into Yun Luo’s eyes, “There are still a few days left, don’t go back on your words.”
Yun Luo couldn’t hold back her laughter. This ghost girl was really cute. She was clearly reluctant to part with everything, but she insisted on being stubborn. Let her be.
“Alright, alright, alright. According to our agreement, you can choose your own when the time is up. I won’t force you.”
In short, she, Yun Luo, would win this bet.
