Mister Dan nodded faintly. "Third Miss Lu looks smart and clever. She will not be difficult to teach."
Pei Shi couldn't say that her daughter looked smart, but she did not like to study. Otherwise, she would not have developed a wild girl's temperament.
Ye Zhen lowered her head and pretended to be obedient. Apart from her father and brother, Mister Dan was the only person who knew her best in the world. In the few years before she became the Princess of Qin, Mister Dan was the one who accompanied her the longest.
Pei Shi and Mister Dan exchanged a few words before leaving. Ye Zhen personally sent Pei Shi to the door.
"Yao Yao, learn well from Mister Dan. He is a powerful teacher." Pei Shi whispered to Ye Zhen, "Even if it's hard, you must grit your teeth and bear it. You know, the capital is different from the border town."
"Yes, mother, I will." She would. This was her only chance, and she didn't want to miss it.
Ye Zhen looked back and saw Mister Dan looking straight at her, as if trying to find someone's shadow through her face.
"Mister." Ye Zhen couldn't help but want to recognize Mister Dan immediately.
"Have you lived in the border town since you were a child?" Mister Dan's eyes suddenly became sharp. This little girl looked too much like his former student, Ye Zhen. He almost thought that Lu Yaoyao was Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen suppressed the sadness in her heart. "Yes, Mister, I have lived in the border town since I was born."
"What have you learned?" Mister Dan's face was indifferent, but his heart was stormy. What was his master thinking? At first, he asked her to be Ye Zhen's teacher. Now, he asked her to agree to Pei Shi's request and come to the Lu family to teach the little girl.
Originally, she felt puzzled and wondered if her master knew the Lu family. But now, after seeing Lu Yaoyao, she knew that this was not the case. Her master asked her to agree to Pei Shi's request only because of the little girl in front of her.
Lu Yaoyao … Ye Zhen … What is the relationship between them?
"I have only learned the Thousand Character Classic, Women's Classics, and Biography of Women." This was what Lu Yaoyao had learned, but she probably didn't like to read such books, so she couldn't learn much at all.
"What's the use of learning these? Since the establishment of the Women's College, it is no longer a virtue for a woman to have no talent. Among the six arts, don't you have a talent that you are proficient in? "Mister Dan frowned.
The entrance exam of the Women's College required students to master six basic abilities: Etiquette, Music, Archery, Imperial Strategy, Calligraphy, and Mathematics.
If one could not pass the six basic abilities, they would definitely not be able to enter the school. For Ye Zhen, this was not difficult, but for Lu Yaoyao, it was as difficult as ascending to the sky.
"Please teach me." Ye Rou curtsied, her attitude extremely respectful.
Mister Dan looked down at her. After a while, he said in a low voice, "Write a few words for me."
Ye Zhen walked to the desk and picked up the brush next to her. Hesitating for a moment, she wrote a sentence on the spread white paper.
The clothes should be new, the person should be old.
When Mister Dan saw the words written by Ye Zhen, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. This sentence was written by Yan Zi Chun Qiu, the first time she met her student.
"Who are you?" Mister Dan asked sharply, "Do you think you can replace someone like Princess Qin just because you look like her? You overestimate yourself! "
Was this a coincidence? It was too much of a coincidence. The name was the same, and the appearance was the same. But now, even the words she wrote were the same.
No, it was not the same. This Lu Yaoyao's handwriting was far inferior to Ye Zhen's. It was crooked and ugly!
What was her master thinking? How could she care so much about Ye Zhen and Lu Yaoyao? She didn't even know her true face. What was the relationship between these two little girls?
Mister Dan became more and more suspicious. Unfortunately, no matter how many questions she had, she could not get an answer. If the master did not want to see her, she would not be able to find him even if she searched the ends of the earth.
"Mister Dan, this student does not understand what you mean. Do I look like anyone?" Ye Zhen wanted to tell Mister Dan that she was Ye Yaoyao, but she could not say it yet.
"Your handwriting is not good. The way you hold the pen is not right. You need to practice more." Mister Dan stiffly changed the subject. He did not want Lu Yaoyao to know too much about Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen would not break the casserole and get to the bottom of it at this time. She just picked up the pen and practiced again. At the same time, a question arose in her heart. Why was Mister Dan willing to come to the Lu family to teach her?
Mister Dan stood beside her, looking down at Ye Zhen practicing calligraphy. Her beautiful face was as still as water, and no one could tell what she was thinking.
"Third young lady, the master has come to see you." After an unknown period of time, the voice of the maid came from outside.
Ye Zhen was shocked. Why did Lu Lingzhi come to see her? She thought it would be at least a while before she would see him.
I must calm down! Ye Zhen told herself in her heart that she was now Lu Yaoyao. She should not think about how to avoid Lu Lingzhi. She should treat him like he used to treat her and let him believe in her as his sister. Otherwise, how could she take revenge?
"Take a rest first." Mister Dan said faintly, picking up Ye Zhen's handwriting and reading it carefully.
"Yes, Mister Dan." Ye Zhen washed her hands and calmed her mood before going to see Lu Lingzhi.
She had been in the Lu family for so long and had never seen him. Why did he want to see her today?
She wanted to approach him as hypocritically as Lu Lingzhi did before. She also wanted to pretend to be his obedient cousin.
When she came to the side hall, Ye Zhen looked at the man standing in the middle of the hall dressed in green. The memory of her previous life emerged in her mind. She calmly came behind him.
"Big brother …" She whispered with just the right amount of nervousness and shyness, not letting anyone see her strangeness.
Lu Lingzhi turned his head and when he saw the little girl standing behind him, he was completely stunned. Ye Zhen?
No, it's not! The little girl in front of him was thinner and smaller than Ye Zhen. Her skin was darker, and her eyebrows and eyes were not quite the same. But overall, she still looked very similar. Is this … Third Uncle's daughter?
When Ye Zhen saw Lu Lingzhi like this, she knew that he must be shocked that she looked like Ye Zhen. With a cautious look on her face, she asked, "Big brother … Are you my eldest cousin?"
Lu Lingzhi returned to his senses and smiled at Ye Zhen. "Third sister, I heard that you want to study at a women's college?"
Ye Zhen smiled charmingly. "Yes, Grandmother said that women must study at a college to have a good future. Big brother, I know that I don't know anything and will be laughed at when I go out in the future. I will work hard to learn well."
The little girl's eyes were full of expectation and hope as she looked at him. Lu Lingzhi suddenly felt a little soft-hearted, but he still whispered, "What if big brother doesn't let you study at a college?"
