Chapter 213: Die before achieving success?
Chapter 213: Die before achieving success?
Today Wan Niang sent her daughter to school early, and when she arrived at the school, there was still an incense stick of time before the class started.
Seeing that the youngest child had stopped playing and was sitting in his seat like a quiet rabbit, everyone gradually quieted down, waiting for the teacher to come and give the lecture, and at the same time review yesterday's homework.
Time passes quickly.
Chen Jiaoyi looked at the empty seat next to her, then at the water clock by the wall, and she couldn't help but feel anxious. She turned around and whispered to Liu Zhenying, "What's going on with Yan Ke? She went to see Master Yan with Lin Yining's letter and hasn't returned yet. Could it be that she's still waiting for Master Yan to finish copying?"
"No way! Isn't she most afraid of being punished?" Liu Zhenying also looked at the clepsydra. The teacher arrived at some point in time.
Not only the two of them, but other people also looked towards the door from time to time, because Yan Ke had not returned since he left.
"Isn't this Aunt Lian like the abbot next door who likes to punish others for their crimes?" Jin Xingman asked worriedly.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone felt that it was all over. The clepsydra time was about to arrive, and their teachers all came in on time.
At that time, more than a dozen anxious footsteps were heard outside and stopped at the door of Class B. It was Lian Zhiyou with a group of aunts in yellow clothes.
Lian Zhiyou glanced at each of the children, and finally stopped at little Yining. She said with a serious face, "Lin Yining, take the two servants down the mountain immediately. I will let you know when I come back."
Xiao Yining stood up at a loss and looked at the person who spoke in a daze.
"What happened to Aunt Lian? Lin Yining just came back." Liu Zhenying asked hurriedly.
Lian Zhiyou sighed softly, "You will know soon. After Lin Yining goes out, send a letter to Lu Jiayi and tell her not to return to the girls' school in the next few days."
Everyone looked at each other, their faces becoming solemn.
……
"Mr. Lin..."
"Mr. Lin is here..."
Suddenly, a few shouts were heard outside Class A. Lin Yuzan frowned and looked outside. It sounded like the voice of Old Man Yu who was guarding the side door.
Wang Cheng tilted his head slightly and whispered, "I'm afraid he came to find you."
The next moment, Uncle Yu's anxious face appeared at the door of Class A. He saw Lin Yuzan patting his thigh and said, "Mr. Lin, you made it so hard for me to find you. Aren't you in Class B?"
"I just passed the exam this month." Lin Yuzan explained awkwardly. He walked to the door despite the unhappy looks from his fellow apprentices and asked gently, "What does Uncle Yu want to see you for?"
"Oh, something big has happened. More than ten girls died in the girls' school next door last night, and even a lot of the girls' maids died. They were all poisoned. Their deaths were horrible. You should ask the teacher for leave as soon as possible to take your child out. I'm afraid you can't stay in this girls' school anymore." Old Man Yu said loudly, wiping his sweat.
"What did you say?" Lin Yuzan was so shocked that he almost lost his balance and ran out in a hurry.
"Shun'an, wait for me!" Wang Cheng quickly thanked Mr. Yu and ran behind his old friend.
Old Man Yu's words also caused a stir in Yunfei Academy. From the management to the servants, everyone had a serious expression on their faces, not to mention the students studying there.
……
Xiao Yining sat on the steps, looking back blankly at the mountain gate above. The door of the Royal Girls' School was heavily closed when she came out.
Except for her and her two servants, no one else was released.
Qiu Yi held two small clay figures and made faces in front of Xiao Yining to cheer her up: "Don't worry, Miss. Miss Liu and the others will be fine. Didn't even Auntie say that the Emperor will send someone to investigate, and if there is no suspicion, his family will be asked to take them away."
"Of course I know that." Xiao Yining replied depressedly.
"I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that something happened to this female student just one day after we returned. It's really hard to predict what will happen in this world!" Zhao Ya sighed.
"Madam Zhao, do you know what happened?" Little Yining asked curiously. Lian Zhiyou just said this incoherent sentence to her and then drove her out.
Zhao Ya was also puzzled and shook her head. She had just arrived at Linglong Courtyard for a short while when she was told to leave. The aunt who informed her was a shut-mouthed person and did not say a word to her.
At this time, Lin Yuzan ran over with sweat all over his forehead. He was relieved to see his daughter at the foot of the mountain. He panted and said, "Qingjie, don't go up. Dad will ask your aunt for leave for you."
Little Yining looked at him depressedly: "Dad, I was driven out by my aunt."
Lin Yuzan: ...
He quickly went forward and picked up his daughter to check on her. Seeing that she looked normal, he said, "Dad has just sent someone to deliver a letter. Your mother will come to pick you up soon."
"Dad, Nanny Zhao also asked someone to send a letter to Mom. Mom should be here soon." Little Yining said speechlessly.
Lin Yuzan, who was late to receive the news, was not embarrassed. Instead, he held his daughter and walked towards Yunfei Academy. Although the two academies were on the same hill, their gates were in opposite directions. He explained softly, "Soldiers will arrive here soon, so your mother can't come in."
"Dad, what happened in the girls' school?" Little Yining asked curiously.
"Your uncle will put away all the medicine bottles in your room, so don't keep them there anymore." Lin Yuzan glanced at his daughter in his arms indifferently.
"..., Oh." Xiao Yining didn't ask any more questions.
Some things are really hard to think about. She was just wondering whether the woman was moving around, and then something happened.
"Master, has someone stolen the young lady's medicine again?" Qiu Yi asked anxiously after hearing this.
Lin Yuzan's eyes showed a smile, he didn't answer, just nodded.
"How could those people be so bad?" Qiu Yi stomped her feet angrily.
Zhao Ya frowned slightly, obviously guessing what was going on.
Fortunately, the group of four met Wan Niang who came hurriedly not long after they walked, and little Yining was taken away.
Lin Yuzan looked at the departing carriage and suddenly felt a little disappointed.
Although most of the accidents in the girls' school are related to Linglong Courtyard, it has to be said that his daughter always manages to escape inexplicably. She is simply blessed by her lucky star.
I don’t know how angry the person behind this will be.
He sneered and looked up at the girls' school. A thick smoke slowly rose from the depths of the girls' school.
In the carriage
Wan Niang held her daughter tightly and refused to let go. "You shouldn't have gone to the girls' school in the first place. Today's incident at the girls' school is a good opportunity to talk to your uncle."
Xiao Yining was silent for a long time, and finally shook her head and said, "Mom, girls' school is good. It can teach Qingjie to read and learn, and also let Qingjie make countless good friends. At home, Qingjie can only play alone."
She didn't know if it was because of the bad nature she had in her previous life that she was punished again. She could have a holiday, but she was not allowed to go to school. She felt uncomfortable as if she was being scratched by a cat.
It turns out that Lin Yining is a good student who loves reading.
"Why don't you just stay at home with your mother?" Wan Niang pretended to be angry.
"I also want to accompany mother, but mother is busy making money to buy hair accessories for Qingjie, and can't accompany Qingjie every day." Xiao Yining said disappointedly.
Wan Niang was helpless. What her daughter said made sense. Other ladies did the same. They placed their children next to the servants. Although they took care of them personally, there were times when they were busy and could not look after them. By the time they came to their senses, the children had become spoiled beyond recognition.
When a child is young, he is like a blank piece of paper, and is most easily stained with color.
"Then...stay with your mother well during these days. When you have learned enough, I will send you back." Wan Niang compromised.
Xiao Yining nodded.
At this time, the carriage stopped.
The mother and daughter looked outside and saw a large group of Iron Eagle Guards and Left Guards riding past like a whirlwind, with the dusty Jingzhao Yin and the constables chasing after them.
"No wonder your father is so secretive. This matter might have alarmed Yanjing." Wan Niang said in shock.
Xiao Yining: ..., this is too big a fuss.
