C78 Only know "ugly" (1/2)
”Tsk.” Xu Hui felt that this matter was too disgusting and could not help but interject, ”Didn't you agree when Xiu Er left? Besides, as a parent and relative, shouldn't you think about your own juniors? Now that Xiu Er is doing quite well, why are you scolding him like that? ”
This matter was not Xiao Xiuer's fault in the first place, the reason they were so angry at Xiao Xiuer was actually because their hearts were unbalanced and not willing to accept the fact. Xu Hui could now see clearly that the Imperial Examinations were mainly about writing. If one could write a good article, he would be able to reach the peak in one fell swoop.
However, writing something that could make one's eyes shine required a certain amount of foundation. In addition to those fixed four books and five scriptures, one also had to have their own insight into them. In this aspect, it was very easy to reflect one's character.
And their Third Uncle's character …
Just thinking about it made Xu Hui want to laugh. She always remembered the first time he saw him, he was eating by herself on the table, leaving the kids to the side. Not to mention the dirty things she did later, just by this point, Xu Hui could already conclude that he would never be able to pass the exam in her entire lifetime.
Xiao Li's disease and He's also stopped talking. It was unknown what the two of them were thinking as they sat on stools. However, Xu Hui thought that he would be fine this time.
Xiao Xiuer left the place with red eyes. Xu Hui felt bored and was too lazy to continue interacting with the two people she hated so she turned around to leave. Just as she reached the door, she saw Niuniu running out.
Xu Hui felt that Niu Niu was very obedient and had already washed up quietly. Xu Hui originally wanted to take Niu Niu to eat something so he could teach her how to write, but when she arrived in front of He's, he heard him say, ”Truly laughing to death, I really think of this as my own sister. And she's raised to be so white and fat. ”
Looking at He's, Xu Hui was annoyed. She held Niu Niu's hand and said without looking back, ”I think this child is pitiful. It's better to be fat than skinny.”
With that, Xu Hui left without a care for He's's expression. Niu Niu was also a smart girl. She only asked Xu Hui after they arrived at the kitchen, ”Sister-in-law, why are they here again?”
In fact, Xu Hui wanted to know as well. Although Third Uncle failed in his Imperial examinations, it was not as if they could not even stay at home. They did not come with a request, and other than making a ruckus, they did not have anything else.
After thinking of a more suitable explanation, Xu Hui pinched Niu Niu's face and said, ”Since bad people can't die, they will come back every once in a while.”
Xu Hui took her to the lobby to practice writing after dinner. In Xu Hui's eyes, no matter who it was, there was a need to learn. Niuniu was still young, so he had to hurry. Plus, Niu Niu liked him too, so Xu Hui felt it was fine to teach her a little.
It just so happened that someone was about to show off in front of him. After writing for a while, He's walked over, her eyes staring at what Niu Niu wrote and her mouth not sparing anyone, ”What a terrible writing.”
As he said this, he used his dirty hands to rub the paper Niuniu wrote him on. As he wiped the paper with his hand, he caught a black streak on it. It looked like a beautiful woman with a black scar on her face.
Xu Hui was slightly unhappy. Just as she was about to tell He's to stay away from him, Niu Niu had already opened her mouth and said, ”Third Aunt, you don't know how to write this. Do you know what this character is?” After saying that, Niuniu pointed at the words on her paper.
