When Aunt Yu came back, Xiao Nianzhi was packing her things.
Aunt Yu said before that she would go to Baima Temple on July 16th, and Xiao Nianzhi would go with her.
Although Aunt Yu didn't come back for the time being, Xiao Nianzhi wanted to be prepared and tidy up early to avoid being busy and forgetting anything again.
As soon as I finished packing, I heard Aunt Yu's voice from outside: "Think about it?"
When Xiao Nianzhi heard this, he put down the things in his hands and ran out. When he saw the person, his eyebrows became happy: "Auntie!"
She quickly walked a few steps and came to Aunt Yu. If it weren't for the wrong time and era, she would even want to give her a hug.
But, don’t say it, it’s easy to scare people!
Aunt Yu had been in the palace for a few days, and the only person she couldn't worry about was Xiao Nianzhi. Although she knew about Xiao Siye, she was still worried that the little girl would be bullied or something.
Now that she saw that the person was safe, she was relieved. She turned around and said to the driver, asking him to put the things on the stone table temporarily.
After the coachman left, Aunt Yu took Xiao Nianzhi's hand, walked to the stone table, and opened the box of things: "Come and take a look, the Queen Mother and the others rewarded a lot of good things. I took a look, and they all It’s suitable for summer wear.”
"The quality is quite good. Although it may be leftover scraps from the top, they are all well-carved jade."
"These earrings are lively and playful, perfect for my thoughts."
…
Aunt Yu then picked a lot more and made some gestures on Xiao Nianzhi.
Finally, with a big push, he put the box into Xiao Nianzhi's arms: "Although we are about to pack up and go to White Horse Temple. It is best to dress more modestly when praying, but the colors inside are all chosen by me. Wear it all day long, and you can’t make a mistake. Put it away quickly, pack it up a little more, and we’ll set off right away.”
Aunt Yu didn't give Xiao Nianzhi a chance to refuse at all, and pushed her back to the house to clean up.
Xiao Nianzhi's things were packed up early in the morning, and now he can just sort them out and follow with the baggage.
However, the pickled cucumbers are not ready for the time being because my aunt is back. This is a vegetarian dish and you can take it with you.
Aunt Yu simply cleaned up, went to say hello to Yu Jijiu, and then led the people out of the academy.
Not far away, some students who happened to be able to see the situation outside saw that Xiao Nianzhi was leaving with Aunt Yu with the baggage, and they couldn't help but look frightened.
no?
etc!
Where is Miss Xiao going?
He still carries baggage, and it doesn’t look like he’s just coming back from a day off!
You can't just run away and quit because you can't stand the rumors, right?
Don't! ! !
The students are in class and it is not easy to discuss this matter.
But soon, the Master finished teaching and they had a break.
The students who saw Xiao Nianzhi leaving with the baggage could not help but cry out: "Miss Xiao ran away!!!"
This news, like a long leg, spread throughout the entire academy in just one class break.
Many students who love food and rely on Xiao Nianzhi's late-night snacks every day to stay alive during their studies began to feel short of breath and felt bad as soon as they heard the news.
"How could it be? Is it Qian Shun?"
"So what's the point of fighting? We should tie him up and beat him up!"
"Did he not apologize to Miss Xiao? How about we arrest him?"
"But Miss Xiao has left, wuwu, how will I spend the next nights!"
…
The students exploded, and some of the bolder ones, like Wei Changting, had quietly approached their master to ask about the matter.
The master knew the inside story. Seeing Wei Changting coming to ask, he nodded: "Miss Xiao's mother's death anniversary has come. She went to Baima Temple to pray for her mother for a while."
After hearing this explanation, Wei Changting was stunned for a moment. After he came to his senses, he scratched his head in embarrassment.
After inquiring about the inside information, the students' emotions finally calmed down.
Miss Xiao didn’t just run away, it would be great if she could come back again!
However, after knowing the truth of the matter, many students felt a little uncomfortable.
During the month of the mother's death anniversary, they spread rumors about each other and their students. This is really...
This is so inappropriate!
"So, let's beat Qian Shun, there won't be so many things without him!"
"You can't blame Qian Shun entirely. If we don't talk too much, things won't be like this."
…
At this time, Qian Shunzheng was trembling and did not dare to show his head.
He usually has a lot of time to talk and has a loud voice. Now he wishes that the gods would show up and give him an invisibility cloak and a mute medicine, so that he could sleep here forever.
He was really wrong, he would never dare to do it again, woo hoo!
Some god will come to save him!
The looks in the eyes of the classmates were so terrifying.
They won't get so angry that they eat human flesh, right? ? ?
Naturally, Xiao Nianzhi didn't know the students' emotions.
Her trip was a day off.
Because of Aunt Yu's respect, even if she takes half a month's leave and comes back at the end of the month, apart from not being paid, it will not affect her work.
Because of the meal money provided by Yan Xingxuan and Yan Changxia, Xiao Nianzhi was rich and was not reluctant to part with half a month's wages.
Moreover, the jewelry given by Aunt Yu is worth half a month's wages?
Therefore, Xiao Nianzhi did not think about this problem.
White Horse Temple is also outside the city, but temples, Taoist temples and other places are all in the east of the city.
The Imperial College also has a number of academies, all in the west of the city.
In both directions, you still need to walk for a while by carriage.
On the way, Xiao Nianzhi saw Aunt Yu taking out snacks to share with her, and couldn't help but asked in a low voice, "Has Aunt Yu not had lunch yet?"
Aunt Yu waved her hand carelessly: "It's okay if you don't eat for one meal. Come and try the dim sum at Renshou Palace. It tastes so good. I never had the chance to eat it before. Who would have thought that I can eat it when I'm old?" It’s a pleasure.”
Speaking of the last sentence, Aunt Yu sighed self-deprecatingly.
Xiao Nianzhi listened on the side and wondered: "My aunt has just passed her forties. She is middle-aged at most. How can she be in old age?"
I didn't expect Xiao Nianzhi to say this. Aunt Yu was stunned for a moment. After she realized what she was saying, she smiled helplessly: "Just talking, I don't feel that I am old."
As she spoke, Aunt Yu's right hand quietly touched her left hand.
She had a good master in her early years and had never been tired or suffered any hardships, so there were no traces of time on her hands. Now she feels much younger than her peers.
Seeing Xiao Nianzhi glance at her hand cautiously, Aunt Yu smiled and shook her head: "Maybe I was lucky. I had a good master in the past. I didn't do any heavy work, even serving tea and water, and I wasn't bothered. Pass."
Mentioning the past, Aunt Yu closed her eyes slightly, as if she was immersed in the past, and her voice became much softer: "The concubine... is really a very good person."
So good that after her death, the palace servants who used to follow her would rather stay in the deserted palace for daily cleaning than defect to the new master.
