The copybooks in Xie Wanyu's hands have been handed down through the ages. With Xue Xuening's perspective, she naturally didn't understand what a seven-year-old child could understand with her teaching them.
And Xiao Jing values martial arts over literature, so naturally he doesn't know this.
Therefore, they all felt that Xie Wanyu had deliberately neglected Xiao Jinmin. After all, it was not difficult for everyone in the contemporary literary world to get a few copybooks with the strength of the Xie family, but Xie Wanyu insisted on letting her children copy the copybooks of some unknown people.
This is treating an adopted son harshly.
Back then, Xie Wanyu was clumsy and didn't know how to explain it. Instead, she was interrupted several times by Xue Xuening.
In the end, he was only disliked by Xiao Jing, and those precious copybooks were not saved.
Now, when Xiao Jinmin heard that Xie Wanyu wanted to give Xiao Zhi a copybook, he hurriedly came forward and said, "Can you share some of mother's copybooks with me? Pei and I have similar calligraphy."
"Peizhi" is Xiao Zhi's name, and the teacher who taught them picked it up for him.
Xie Wanyu looked at him and said, "I don't have many copybooks in my hand, and they are not written by anyone in the literary world. Are you willing to have them too?" Only she knew that if she could write the words on the copybooks well, she would definitely be able to use her handwriting in the future. Become a faction.
Hearing this, Xiao Jinmin hesitated.
Xue Xuening said that he will inherit the Hou Mansion in the future, and he should use the best whether it is food, clothing, or studies.
It's not the font of everyone in the literary world, so what's the point of copying it.
At this time, Mrs. Xiao said, "You can't just care about others and ignore your own children." She was so angry that she would start coughing after saying a few words.
Xie Wanyu hurriedly walked over and said, "Grandma, you are worrying too much. If the child likes it, I will naturally be happy to give it to you. It is not a valuable thing in the first place."
"Whatever is good or bad, even if Min'er throws it away, it cannot be given to outsiders casually." Mrs. Xiao said.
Xie Wanyu smiled and nodded, but did not listen.
If Mrs. Xiao hadn't doted on her two great-grandsons so much, how could she have made them lawless and ungrateful.
Mrs. Xiao was still not feeling well. After saying this, she closed her eyes again and fell into a deep sleep.
When Xie Wanyu turned her head, she saw Xiao Zhi standing in the corner, a pair of thin little hands tightly grasping the hem of his clothes. He lowered his head and looked defeated.
In the previous life, after selecting Xiao Jinmin, these children were dismissed, so Xie Wanyu didn't know whether they did anything in the end.
The reason why she treated Xiao Zhi specially was because of the stubbornness in his eyes.
If such a child is carefully cultivated, he will definitely become a powerful enemy of the Xiao family.
"Peizhi, come here." Xie Wanyu waved to him.
Xiao Zhi walked to her side and bowed his hands respectfully, "Madam."
"You can pick it up from me tomorrow." Xie Wanyu saw Xiao Zhi's eyes light up and couldn't help but smile, "The old lady is not in good health. I promised her just to make her happy. You study hard and earn some fame in the future. return."
She rubbed Xiao Zhi's head.
Xiao Zhi nodded heavily, "When Xiao Zhi grows up, he will definitely earn a royal life for his wife."
When Xiao Mingxuan heard this, a hint of disdain appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he saluted Xie Wanyu before walking out.
He would never say those words, and he didn't bother to say those things, because he was the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, and he could only be the one to inherit the Hou Mansion in the future.
So whether it was Xiao Jinmin or Xiao Zhi, he never took it seriously.
Xiao Jinmin, on the other hand, was very unhappy when he saw Xie Wanyu treating Xiao Zhi specially because of his young age.
He walked to Xie Wanyu and said, "Mother, didn't you promise your great-grandmother?"
"If you want a copybook, I'll give you some." After Xie Wanyu finished speaking, she continued, "Besides, I can do whatever I want with my own copybook."
"But shouldn't mother listen more to her great-grandmother?" Xiao Jinmin said sadly.
Xie Wanyu did not answer, but continued to ask, "Do you want a copybook?"
"I don't want it." Xiao Jinmin refused, and then said, "Pei Zhi, no matter how good your calligraphy is, you are just a servant. All you have to learn now is how to serve me."
He put his hands behind his back and looked at Xiao Zhi condescendingly.
Although the two are about the same age, Xiao Zhi probably had a difficult life when he was a child, so he is a head shorter than him.
Xie Wanyu couldn't stand it anymore and said directly, "Pei Zhi is your brother of the same clan. He is following you now, and he is just a companion, not your servant."
Xiao Jinmin's breath was stagnant, and he suddenly felt that Xie Wanyu was not talking to him at all.
His face also looked ugly.
Xie Wanyu just pretended not to see it, "Okay, you all can go down."
Watching the two children leave, Xie Wanyu couldn't help but sigh. Xiao Jinmin was really led astray by Xue Xuening. How come she didn't notice it in her previous life.
"Madam." Zhu Fang saw that Xie Wanyu's expression was not good, "Why don't I keep you here, and you can rest on the low couch for a while."
Xie Wanyu nodded, and then heard a sound outside.
Then he walked to the window and opened the window a crack.
But he saw Xiao Jinmin and Xiao Zhi standing there. They did not leave. Xiao Zhi stood there with his head lowered. Xiao Jinmin looked at him condescendingly, "I have always been the heir of the Hou Mansion, you are just a Orphan, fortunately my surname is Xiao, that’s all.”
Xiao Zhi was not confident to begin with, and at this time he was even nervously grabbing his pants line.
"Did you hear that?" Xiao Jinmin asked.
Xiao Zhi raised his head, with a timid look on his face, but still whispered, "But there is an eldest son in the Hou Mansion. He is the eldest son. How can it be possible that this Hou Mansion is your adopted son?"
Originally, Xie Wanyu still felt pity for Xiao Zhi, but after hearing what he said, her eyes widened in disbelief.
No wonder she still felt that Xiao Zhi was very smart when they met for the first time, with a stubbornness in his eyes that refused to admit defeat. How could such a child become so cowardly.
Only now did she understand that Xiao Zhi was definitely pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.
Sure enough, his "ignorant" question made Xiao Jinmin blush, "Who is he? This mansion can only be mine. Both my father and my great-grandmother love me the most."
"It's whatever the second young master says." Xiao Zhi looked like he didn't believe it at all.
Xiao Jinmin grabbed his lapel and said, "Let me tell you, I am the Marquis's biological son. He likes my mother the most. Sooner or later, the position of heir apparent will be mine."
Xiao Zhi didn't expect that he could hear such a confidential matter, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Are you an illegitimate child?" In an instant, he regained his composure, "Then you are even less likely to inherit the Hou Mansion."
"Who said that? My father only has two sons, and how can you be sure that Xiao Mingxuan can live forever?" Xiao Jinmin was completely angered by Xiao Zhi.
He probably didn't take Xiao Zhi seriously at all, so he could say anything. But he didn't know that all his words fell on Xie Wanyu's ears.
Xiao Zhi's pupils shrank. This was the first time he had been exposed to the struggle of a wealthy family since he was a child.
