"Is this what the rumors say?"
Su Yixin smiled: "The rumors Madam heard at that time were not very comprehensive."
Bao Yunli looked at Su Yixin in surprise and said, "I was thrown into the mountains and forests by my mother since I was a child. I was taken in by my adoptive parents, who treated me well."
The real situation is certainly not as miserable as Su Yixin said.
But in order to let Duan Zhian understand that she was once a child of a poor family, and that this status as a monarch was earned step by step by her own life, and it was not the position of a princess given by His Majesty with a few words.
Duan Zhian, who was hiding next door, really didn't know that Su Yixin had such a past.
Su Yixin was quick with her hands and feet and took out a lot of ingredients from the storage bag. Bao Liyun was shocked, but after the storm, she quickly calmed down.
She handled the ingredients and made the fire, while Su Yixin took the spoon, and five dishes and one soup were ready in half an hour.
His movements are skillful, and he looks like an expert at first glance, and it doesn't look like he was just trained on a temporary basis.
Bao Liyun is really impressed.
This dish was very appetizing at first glance, and it was made in a way she had never seen before.
The scent made her swallow her saliva unconsciously.
The two of them put the food on the table before Duan Fuzi appeared with his hands behind his back.
He could smell the aroma of this dish through a wall.
fragrant.
He secretly swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva just now.
But now he can't just compromise on this stutter.
"I know why Princess Ruian is here. You don't need to say anything more. Just go back after eating this meal!"
Su Yixin nodded: "Okay."
Answered neatly.
Duan Zhian couldn't be punished again.
It is true that Duan Zhian is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, but he still lacks experience in dealing with a young girl like Su Yixin.
I could only sit down at the main seat with a sullen face, pick up my chopsticks and start eating.
This first chopstick made Duan Zhian's eyes light up a bit, and then he picked up another chopstick.
Princess Ruian just said that she often cooked when she was a child, which seems to be true.
It tastes really good.
He likes spicy food and always feels that if this dish is not spicy, it will lose its soul.
And the spiciness was just what he could tolerate.
Let Lianqiu inquire in advance, naturally to get some useful information. Knowing that Duan Fuzi likes to eat, and even spicy food, she feels that God is really helping her.
She is good at cooking spicy dishes.
It was easy to catch Duan Fuzi's stomach.
Watch him use chopstick after chopstick.
Can't stop at all!
This is one step closer to convincing him to teach at home.
After lunch, Bao Liyun put away the dishes, but Su Yixin was still in no hurry to leave. She sat on the coffee table nearby and drank tea with Mrs. Duan.
A cup of tea after a meal is also Mr. Duan’s habit.
"I've probably been living in seclusion here for ten years, Master. Have you never thought that there would be a chance to display your talents again?"
Duan Zhian snorted, looked Su Yixin up and down, and was dizzy by the hairpin on his head: "Princess Ruian, I heard that you are very good at making money. Could it be that you want me to be your accountant and fiddle with the abacus beads?"
Tsk, tsk, yin and yang tone.
Not inferior to Shi En back then.
Su Yixin didn't feel any pain or itching: "Hey, Mrs. Duan is a great talent, but Mr. Accountant is a talent!"
Duan Zhian rolled his eyes.
"Master Duan, Yixin is telling the truth. I am here to invite you this time because there are many children in the house who have just reached the stage of enlightenment and want to find a famous teacher to teach in the house so that they can study and make their ambitions clear and become useful people in the future. people."
Duan Fuzi did not expect that the Lord of Ruian County came to him just to ask him to learn knowledge for the children in the mansion. His tone softened, and he was a little more probing this time: "What is a useful person?"
"Usefulness can be divided into big use and small use. Big use is for the country and the people, and small use is for the family, relatives and friends, and oneself."
Su Yixin said: "If they are stupid by nature, I also hope that they can be upright people. If they are intelligent by nature and have the guidance of famous teachers, then they can be people who can create value for the court."
Su Yixin's words were far beyond Duan Zhian's expectations.
He looked at Su Yixin with unknown meaning.
Is this really what a woman said?
Without waiting for him to say anything, Princess Ruian said: "Master Duan, you are talented and full of knowledge, but you just hid here when you encountered a slight setback. Didn't you waste all your talents and knowledge?"
Duan Zhian put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at Su Yixin: "It seems that Princess Ruian is well prepared."
"Master Duan is a great talent, so naturally I have to put some thought into it."
Su Yixin directly admitted that instead of making Duan Zhian angry, she actually appreciated her magnanimity.
"I have lived here for more than ten years and I am used to it."
"Habit does not mean right. Besides, if Master is really used to it, how would he know that I, Princess Ruian, am good at business?"
"Master doesn't like the complex and changeable human heart, and is tired of the sophistication of the world. I, Su Yixin, can guarantee that there will be no such things in my house, and I will not interfere with Master's teachings. Master must also know that my husband is the number one scholar in Sanyuan, so he has free time Isn't it wonderful that I can discuss knowledge with my husband at this time?"
Duan Zhian curled his lips: "That sounds nice. Who knows if you can say one thing and do another."
Su Yixin smiled.
Because Duan Fuzi said so, but his attitude has obviously softened.
Originally, she was still thinking that if Master Duan still refused, she would have no choice but to use her trump card.
But if he can be persuaded on this point, it would be best not to mention it.
Otherwise it would really be a deal.
On the contrary, it will make Duan Fuzi feel uncomfortable.
"Master Duan can think about it carefully. The children can afford to wait."
After Su Yixin finished speaking, she stood up and left.
Although Bao Liyun said she was busy in the kitchen, she was actually paying attention to what was going on in the main hall.
You know your own man.
He has a bad temper.
When Princess Ruian came in the morning, she went inside to invite her. As soon as she heard the words "Princess Ruian" and knew that she was coming wearing gold and silver, she immediately said: "No!"
I thought she didn't deal with people in the middle and would chase people away without even saying a few words.
Unexpectedly, I got up to see him off.
After they were sent away, Mr. Duan came to the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves and worked with his wife. He did not forget to complain: "You told me that Princess Ruian wears gold and silver. I thought she was a idiot. I didn’t expect it to be a woman with a lot of troubles in her heart.”
"She didn't get the title of Princess for nothing."
"Yes, but it's not like the husband of the number one scholar is always with me. I thought it was his husband who gave her the credit for this."
Bao Liyun stopped what she was doing and looked at Duan Zhian: "Let's not talk about whether Princess Ruian is really capable. As a woman, if her husband can protect her like this, how bad will she be?"
