400 Only Read Them, Not Recite Them
“Send a few people to Old Madam’s courtyard. Keep an eye on her too. Let’s see who can keep an eye on whom,” she instructed the maid.
“Yes, Princess.”
The maid accepted the order and turned around to make arrangements.
Old Madam had become bolder over the years. She truly believed she had the most authority in the Prince Zhan Yun Residence and dared to do anything.!!
No one would have indulged Old Madam’s vicious habits if it hadn’t been for the fact that she had someone backing her, and Prince Zhan Yun wanted to find out who it was.
However, it was strange. Old Madam was not astute, but she still had people on her side every time they got rid of someone. They grew in batches, like chives.
Prince Zhan Yun must have had a headache over this, right?
“Yan Yun, doesn’t that old woman like to cause trouble? Go and cause trouble for her too,” Qian Yiyun instructed another maid behind her.
“Princess, you mean…”
Yan Yun raised her head and looked at the princess carefully. She already had a target in mind.
Old Madam had sent people to her family’s clan to find a new young lady ever since she learned of Xue Ling’s death at the southern border.
The Xue family did not have much besides having more collateral branches of their family. They were not wealthy either. Many of them were commoners.
It would be easy for Old Madam to take children from a family like this.
“I understand. I’ll make arrangements now.”
After the maid left, Qian Yiyun nodded in satisfaction and walked into Qiongzhi Courtyard.
Qian Yizheng and Qian Yirong were engrossed in their books in the courtyard and did not even notice someone approaching them.
Of course, they were accompanied by Warrior-Servant One and Warrior-Servant Two. Even in the Qiongzhi Courtyard, they would follow their two young masters and listen to them read.
“Zheng’er, Rong’er, what are you looking at so intently?” Qian Yiyun asked as she walked towards them.
“Aunt Yiyun, you’re here.”
“Aunt Yiyun, we’re reading.”
The two boys put down the book in their hands and looked at Qian Yiyun in unison.
They had been shocked yesterday. They had pestered their mother to get them the two books and decided to take a good look at what kind of magical books they were.
They were denied admission to the school because they did not know these two books. How could that be?
Qian Yiyun approached them and squatted to read the book in their hands. She was stunned when she saw it clearly.
One held ‘Three Character Classic’ while the other held ‘The Book of Family Names’.
“Oh, you’re already interested in ‘Three-Character Classic’ and ‘The Book of Family Names’? Did your mother give them to you?” she asked.
“That’s right. Mother gave them to us. We’ll only read them, not recite them,” Qian Yizheng shook his head and said softly.
Their mother had told them not to read books all the time. They might damage their heads if they memorized too many things. Although they did not think that would happen, they still obeyed.
“Pfft!” Qian Yiyun could not help but laugh.
Is there a need for an explanation? Are they afraid I’ll tell on them?
But their learning and comprehension skills are superior. It’ll be impossible for me to memorize so many books in such a short time.
They’re geniuses raised by my sister-in-law, after all. They’re indeed different from other children.
