Chapter 23 Falsification (1)
When Yuxi arrived at Yulanyuan, she found that she was the last one to come. She didn't care, it wasn't that she was late, she arranged the Four Treasures of the Study and "The Analects of Confucius" and took the time to review the books.
Yu Jing sneered and said, "Mr. is coming soon, it's too late for you to learn now."
Yuxi ignored her and read the book seriously.
Seeing Yu Xi ignoring her, Yu Jing became angrier: "I was talking to you, but you ignored her?"
Yu Xi looked at Yu Jing and said with a sneer, "Then how do you want me to answer you? Do you still want me to say that you are right to ridicule me over and over again, and I am not angry at all?" After a while, Yuxi smiled lightly and said: "Second Sister, I'm wondering, why do you have the nerve to ridicule me? I am only four years old this year, and you are already eight years old. Isn't it right that you behave better than me?"
Yu Jing suddenly changed her face: "When have I ridiculed you?"
Yuxi sneered and said: "Speaking of it, I am a little puzzled. The third sister and I have lost a lot of weight during this period of time. The second sister, you are not only not thin, but also have such a good spirit. Can you tell us how you do it? Did you arrive?" Yu Xi almost said that Yu Jing had lied.
After hearing this, Yuchen looked up at Yujing, and saw that Yujing was not only not thin, but also seemed to have gained a lot of weight, as Yuxi said. She has learned everything that Mr. Song is teaching now, so she has lost a lot of weight recently. Yujing has no background, but her condition is better than her own, which cannot help Yuchen doubts.
Yu Jing exclaimed angrily, "What do you mean?"
Yuxi shrugged and said: "I just said that Second Sister, you have some good learning methods, but I didn't slander you." Yuxi's words were obviously saying that Yujing had no silver three hundred taels here.
Yu Jing's teeth itch with hatred, but she was afraid of saying too much and making mistakes, so she just gave Yu Xi a look, and kept this account in her heart, and waited to settle it later.
Naturally, the maids outside knew about the dispute between the sisters, so they immediately told Mrs. Ding about it. Mrs. Ding originally suspected that Yu Jing was cheating, but she had no evidence. Now that she heard Yu Xi's words, she became more and more sure of her guess, and immediately told Mr. Song about it.
The reason why Mr. Song didn't doubt Yujing was not because she was stupid and couldn't see Yujing's deceit, but because she had never encountered such a thing in more than ten years of teaching. Those girls couldn't stand her strict teaching methods, so they would just excuse themselves or find other reasons to quit. It's not that these girls never thought of cheating, but the price of cheating is too high. Once they are discovered, their reputation will be ruined, and their lives will be ruined. No one will gamble their whole life. Therefore, Yujing performed well during this time, and Mr. Song only thought that she was starting to work hard, but did not suspect that she was cheating.
Mrs. Ding said: "Sir, I think the second girl is wrong. What the fourth girl said today reminded me."
Mr. Song was silent for a moment and said: "Bring over the second girl's homework." Reciting the text and analyzing the text are all assessed by her herself, and she can't make a fake.
Mrs. Ding quickly took Yujing's homework and piled it up.
After checking Yujing's homework, Mr. Song's face was full of anger. This word is copied so alike, how could Mrs. Ding find out. Even if she didn't check it carefully, it's unlikely that she could see the difference: "Okay, that's great!" How could she not be angry if she dared to do such a dirty trick.
Mrs. Ding knew that Yujing's homework was written by someone else, and she was also very angry. It is extremely disgusting to deceive her and her husband in such a low-handed manner: "I never thought that the second girl would be so bold? Sir, I will drive him out now."
Mr. Song is a more rational type: "No, this matter should not be publicized." If she drives Yu Jing out now, it will not only damage Yu Jing's reputation, but also the reputation of the girls in the Duke's Mansion. You can't implicate the other girls for a mouse shit.
Mrs. Ding said angrily, "Sir, can't we just forget about it?"
Mr. Song naturally wouldn't let it go like this: "I know this matter well.
"
When the class time came, Mr. Song calmed down and continued the class as usual. There was no embarrassment for Yu Jing during this time, she was still as usual, nothing unusual.
At noon, Mrs. Ding saw that Mr. Song did not move, and asked: "Sir, now you can go and talk to Mrs. Han about this matter."
Mr. Song shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it in a few days."
Mrs. Ding was puzzled: "Why does it take a few days?" Shouldn't the matter be told to Mrs. Han immediately, and then the second girl should not be allowed to come to Yulan Garden. Mrs. Ding didn't understand what Mr. Song was thinking.
Mr. Song did not explain. But Mrs. Ding, who knew her quite well, quickly asked: "Sir, are you afraid that this matter will affect the fourth girl?"
Mr. Song shook his head and said, "Not all of them." Mr. Song was a little scrupulous. She, a teacher, didn't notice the problem that Yuxi had discovered. This was a serious dereliction of duty.
Not long after Yuxi returned to Rose Garden, a doctor came over, and it was Doctor Bai. This doctor Bai was not the one who treated her smallpox back then, they were relatives.
After taking the pulse, Doctor Bai said: "The girl is not in serious condition, but she is a little tired and needs a good rest."
Yuxi smiled wryly, where does she have time to rest well!
Doctor Bai is more familiar with the affairs of the Duke's Mansion, and knows why Yuxi is overworked. Seeing Yu Xi like this, he said: "The old man prescribed a prescription for nourishing food, and the girl will take it for a few days first. I will come back for a follow-up visit after a while."
Yuxi nodded her head.
What Yuxi said during the day made Yuchen remember it in his heart. Yuchen saw that the old lady looked good, so she told the old lady Han about it.
What Yuchen meant was to check, if Yujing was really cheating, she should be stopped in time. Otherwise, the reputation of the Duke's Mansion will be ruined. In addition, she is afraid that Mr. Song will be offended because of this matter. If Mr. Song leaves the hall in a rage, she will have nowhere to look for him crying.
Mrs. Han frowned: "Si Yatou is talking nonsense, do you take it seriously?" When will the child she brought up with one hand be led away by Siyatou.
Yuchen shook his head and said, "No grandma, the second sister's behavior is really abnormal recently." Everyone has studied the enlightenment book, and Yujing still behaves so unbearably. Now Mr. Song is teaching a lot more profound things, but Yujing's performance is better than before, which is so strange no matter how you look at it.
Mrs. Han was silent for a while, and said: "I will let someone investigate this matter, don't worry about it." Mrs. Han thinks all this is the fourth girl's nonsense.
The old lady had placed someone in Yiran Courtyard, and got the news the next day. Mother Luo said: "Madam, I have already asked. The second girl has been working very hard these days. She does her homework very late every day and wakes up very early in the morning."
The old lady asked: "Is there anything unusual?"
Mother Luo shook her head and said, "No, everything is fine in Yiran Courtyard, there is nothing abnormal."
After hearing this, the old lady felt dissatisfied with Yuxi in her heart. This girl didn't know what consequences she would bring.
Mother Luo said good things for Yuxi: "Old lady, in fact, you can't blame the fourth girl. I have already inquired. The second girl has been looking for trouble for the fourth girl these days, and the fourth girl just said it casually yesterday when she was annoyed. Yes, and it's not a lie." A four-year-old child doesn't have so many eyes.
Thinking of Yuxi's performance during this time, the old lady didn't say anything more: "Tell Mother Shen to guide that girl well."
Yuchen frowned when she heard that Yujing was fine, but she didn't raise any objections to the old lady's filial piety.
Yuxi is not Yuchen, she doesn't believe the result of this investigation at all, but it is impossible for her to refute the result openly, she just smiled and said: "I didn't say that the second sister was lying, I just want to know if the second sister is Is there any good learning method, if I learn it, I won’t have to work so hard.”
Shen's mother's eyebrows twitched. She thought Yuxi would question this decision, but she didn't expect Yuxi to deny it at all. Shen's mother found that she was becoming more and more unable to see through the fourth girl.
But Yuxi ignored Shen's mother and went to do her homework with a bitter face. Now that there is a layer of calluses on my hands, there will be no more blood blisters, and holding the pen will not hurt so much.
A few days passed in a blink of an eye.
The servant girl reported that Mr. Song had come, Mrs. Han was a little surprised when she heard that, except for the first day, Mr. Song had never been to the upper room for more than half a month!
Mother Luo went out to welcome Mr. Song into the house in person.
After Mr. Song sat down, he said without any oblique words: "Madam, I actually came here this time to tell Madam something."
Seeing Mr. Song's expression, Mrs. Han knew it was not a good thing: "Mr. Song, please tell me."
Mr. Song told about Yujing's schoolwork being handed over to others: "Madam, I don't know how to teach such a child, please forgive me, Madam."
Mrs. Han's complexion changed: "Mr. Song, you must have made a mistake." If it was Ru Yuru, she had no objection to returning from illness because she couldn't bear such a large course load. But Yu Jing's behavior will damage the reputation of all the girls in the Duke's Mansion.
Mr. Song's face turned serious, and he said, "Old lady, if I don't have enough evidence, I won't make fun of a student's reputation. Old lady, I didn't want to cause trouble before I told you about it." As long as As long as Yu Jing doesn't come to Yulan Court anymore, it's out of her control as to how Mrs. Han will deal with Yu Jing. Of course, Yujing's reputation will definitely be preserved if she is handed over to Mrs. Han.
Mrs. Han has experienced heavy wind and rain. Although this incident embarrassed her, it did not make her lose her sense of proportion. After seeing off Mr. Song, Mrs. Han ordered Fei Cui, and said, "Go and call Aunt Rong and the second girl." Yu Jing lied, and Aunt Rong must be the insider.
Aunt Rong knew something was wrong when she heard that the old lady sent her to the main courtyard, mainly because she was guilty, so the old lady summoned her inexplicably, she was a little worried.
Aunt Rong hurriedly asked her maid to deliver the letter in the front yard. It's not that she was too careful, but that the old lady was too ruthless, which made Aunt Rong feel scruples.
