While Gu Li was thinking, the young master's eyes finally fell on Shen Rou, showing a rare smile: "I am a disciple of Master Meng, and I can be regarded as your senior brother. I will teach you arithmetic for a few days. My surname is Yun, you can call me Master Yun, or Senior Brother Yun."
Senior Brother Yun's eyes wandered around the classroom and finally landed on Shen Rou.
"Hey, this classmate is new here too, right? I haven't seen your information before. Come and answer this question, and let me get to know you a little bit."
Shen Rou, who was obsessed with Master Yun's smile and couldn't help herself, turned pale when she was asked a question.
She won't.
Not to mention arithmetic problems like this that require thinking, she can't even do simple addition and subtraction, and she can't use an abacus. I thought that since my family was well-off, I could find someone to teach me slowly in private. Unexpectedly, I was asked questions in the first class.
Although she didn't know the topic, Master Yun was really good-looking, so she got up from her seat unconsciously, walked towards the figure on the podium, and took the abacus from Master Yun, but she didn't make any next move.
After a few minutes, the master put away the smile on his face, but did not let Shen Rou return to her seat. Instead, she stood awkwardly on the podium.
Her eyes fell on Gu Li's face again. She didn't take the roster and said directly: "The student sitting in the last row, please take this question!"
When Gu Li's name was called, she walked up to the podium. She didn't take the abacus in Shen Rou's hands, but just calculated the answer orally.
Shen Rou stood aside, holding the abacus in the air, and then took it back in embarrassment, feeling that everyone in the class was looking at her.
She was obviously the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion, and her status was comparable to that of a princess. However, she felt ashamed at this moment, as if she was the one who was not worthy of being on the stage.
Shen Rou didn't know how she returned to her seat. She just felt that all her classmates were looking at her and laughing silently.
In a daze, someone said something: "So what if I become a eldest lady? I'm still not a country girl, and I can't do anything."
Shen Rou raised her head and happened to see Gu Li following her. Her steps are very light, and her tall and slender figure makes her graceful, like a weak willow supporting the wind, and every step is graceful.
What a nice view!
Shen Rou looked at Gu Li with crazy jealousy in her eyes. This kind of posture that our lady has learned since childhood was something she could not learn in a few days.
Her eyes fell on the medicine basket behind Gu Li. As she looked at it, a slight smile appeared on her lips, but this smile was a bit cold.
I heard that Gu Li was arrogant and domineering in the past and offended many nobles in the capital. Now that she has lost the backer of the General's Mansion, there must be many people taking revenge on her, right?
The morning class ended quickly.
Gu Li was sorting the books and felt someone standing in front of the desk, it was Shen Rou.
"Is something wrong?" Gu Li put the book in her backpack and planned to go out and sell the medicine.
"Classmate Gu, I know the conditions of the Gu family are not very good. Can you teach me arithmetic? I can pay you." Shen Rou blushed slightly and looked a little shy, "I definitely didn't look down on you. This is because you rely on you." My own money.”
Gu Li pondered for a moment and couldn't help but admire Shen Rou as a heroine with a high emotional intelligence.
Let me tell you first that the conditions of the Gu family are not very good, that is, they are very poor.
Then, after lending a helping hand, he used the excuse of teaching arithmetic to earn money and dignity.
And she is not only positive but also repays kindness.
However, once it has something to do with repaying a favor, who will realize that this money was earned by Gu Li's hard work?
Her brothers would be even more moved when they found out that Shen Rou had lived a good life and never forgot about her family.
Compared to her sister, who was beaten half to death before willing to come back, she was even more useless.
And once she agreed, she couldn't go back on her word. She would go back to the Shen Mansion and watch her parents, her room, and her belongings being taken over by her. With the character of the original owner, she would stupefy herself to death.
It's really killing two birds with one stone.
Gu Li smiled slightly, her smile bright and dazzling: "Student Shen, if you want to improve your academic performance, find a professional tutor to teach you. I am just a student with limited abilities. As for the financial situation of the Gu family, since you have left the Gu family, Don’t worry about it anymore.”
Seeing that Gu Li didn't care about her proposal, Shen Rou was also a little surprised. She thought that she would agree without hesitation as this was a perfect excuse to enter the Shen family. Unexpectedly, Gu Li refused so simply. .
"Classmate Gu, even if you hate me, please consider my proposal carefully. The Gu family is so poor that they can't even afford food. Do you still want to eat for free at the Gu family?" Shen Rou's voice was neither high nor low, just right. Let everyone in the school hear it.
"You are no longer a member of the Gu family. The Gu family's affairs have nothing to do with you." Gu Li said coldly. She was really annoyed by the heroine's character.
When Shen Rou saw Gu Li turning to leave, she suddenly said: "Classmate Gu, do you hate me for taking everything away from you? After all, I should have been the one running for life. I was wrong, please forgive me! "
There was a cry in her voice, like a pitiful little white flower.
Gu Li raised the corners of her lips, half-smiling but not smiling: "Whatever you think!"
After saying that, he picked up the medicine basket and turned around to leave.
Looking at Gu Li's back, Shen Rou bit her lip. She didn't expect that Gu Li would reject her kindness.
She knew how poor the Gu family was. The oxcart ride to the city and back cost ten copper coins. This was almost the Gu family's food expenses for a day. She wanted to see how long the Gu family could support it.
Gu Li didn't know what Shen Rou was thinking. She was walking on the streets of Qiancheng with a basket of medicine on her back, and soon came to the entrance of an underground martial arts arena in the north of the city.
Gu Li curled her lips slightly, took out a large cloak from the medicine basket, covered herself tightly, then sat at the door and set up a stall.
The medicine she collected yesterday morning had been made into an ointment overnight.
She was often injured in her previous life, so it was not easy to make various ointments to treat injuries.
"Cure all kinds of bruises and bruises. Just put it on and it will stop the pain." The crisp hawking voice made the originally hot little street feel cooler, while Gu Li stared at the underground martial arts field disguised as a grocery store opposite.
Sure enough, not long after, a burly man walked out from there. Judging from the triumphant expression on his face, he must have won the battle, but it seemed that he had won by a narrow margin and suffered a lot of injuries.
Business is coming! Gu Li's voice immediately became several times louder: "It specializes in treating all kinds of bruises and injuries. Apply it to relieve the pain. If it doesn't work, you'll get your money back!"
After hearing this, the big man strode over and said, "Come and give me a try. If it doesn't work, I don't want your money back, as long as you let me punch you."
