The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

426 Following the Wind (3)

The two of them would be old enough to get married in a few years. They might not move out then, but they at least had to have something to do.

In the afternoon, she went to the academy to pick up Brother Hao and the others.

When she arrived at the men’s school, Brother Hao was waiting at the door. He seemed to be in a good mood.

When he saw Shen Yijia, his eyes lit up. He looked like he wanted her to ask him what happened.

Shen Yijia rubbed his head in amusement and asked cooperatively.

Brother Hao was a little embarrassed. He stammered for a long time before speaking.

It turned out that he had been mocked and ridiculed by a few students yesterday. He was afraid of causing trouble for his brother, so he silently endured it.

Unexpectedly, when he went to the academy today and saw those people again, all of them were bruised and swollen. It was obvious that they had been taught a lesson, so his mood naturally improved.

Shen Yijia choked and had a guess.

Thinking of Brother Hao’s unhappy expression yesterday, she regretted being too gentle.

She said angrily, “Next time they bully you, come back and tell me. I’ll take you to get back at them.”

“Is that okay?” Brother Hao’s eyes lit up. Although those people had suffered retribution, it was different if he didn’t do it himself.

“Of course. We just won’t let them see that we did it.”

It seemed that those people did not dare to let their families know that they usually bullied others.

Otherwise, they would definitely have gone back to complain after being beaten up yesterday. It was impossible for there to be no news today.

However, some paper tigers would be obedient after being beaten up a few more times.

At this point, the carriage had already arrived at the women’s school.

Looking at the two little girls crawling in, Shen Yijia was stunned. “The space between your eyebrows…”

Sister Huan grinned and leaned her face in front of Shen Yijia. “How is it? Isn’t it beautiful?”

Looking at the familiar pattern, the corners of Shen Yijia’s mouth twitched. “It looks good. Why is it like this?”

Lin Miaomiao continued, “They saw Miss Ji’s makeup yesterday. Today, more than half of the students in the academy are drawing this between their eyebrows.”

In order to fit in, the two of them also drew. Moreover, because they had seen the flower bud between Shen Yijia’s eyebrows, they drew better than others.

Later on, those people asked the two of them to help draw. For this, they even gained a large group of sisters.

Shen Yijia’s eyelids twitched. She lifted the curtain and looked over. Indeed, every girl had such a pattern drawn between their eyebrows.

Shen Yijia covered her face. She did not know what to say.

She felt an inexplicable urge to laugh.

“However, Sister-in-law, why is yours gone?” Sister Huan pointed at her forehead and asked curiously.

Didn’t she say it was tattooed previously? How could she remove it so easily?

Shen Yijia blinked and said casually, “I got tired of looking at it, so I got Mo Yuan to wash it off with medicine.”

“Oh.” Sister Huan was enlightened and praised her daily. “But Sister-in-law is also good-looking like this.”

Because of Miss Ji, there was a commotion in the capital. She wondered if Miss Ji would feel a sense of accomplishment when she found out.

The carriage passed by the alley from yesterday. Shen Yijia thought for a moment and shouted for the carriage to stop. She entered the alley alone and returned.

As soon as she left, a few bruised and battered people appeared around the corner of the alley.

One of them said bitterly, “Is that demoness really going to come every day?”

Was their holy land for fighting going to be ruined from now on?

At Nu’er Alley in the south of the city.

It was rare for Wang Mingan not to be beaten up after school, and it was rare for him not to go home injured.

He pushed open the dilapidated courtyard door and saw a thin woman sitting in the courtyard washing clothes.

He pursed his lips and walked over to snatch the clothes from the woman’s hand. “Mother, didn’t I tell you to lie down in bed? The money I earned from copying books is enough to feed us.”

In fact, the money earned from copying books was too little, and Madam Wang insisted that he study and take the imperial examination in the future.

He took another path and began to write novels for the bookstore. One book could be sold for five to six taels of silver, but Madam Wang did not know.

With that, he helped Madam Wang sit down on a chair at the side. He put down the book bag and sat at Madam Wang’s seat to start washing clothes.

The clothes in the basin were colorful, and there were even women’s undergarments.

These clothes belonged to the women in the brothel in the nearby alley. Only they would throw the clothes to Madam Wang to wash.

Sometimes, Madam Wang would go there to wash the clothes, and sometimes, she would bring it home to wash.

After being patted on the shoulder twice, Wang Mingan blinked and hid the tears in his eyes before looking up.

Madam Wang gestured guiltily with her skinny hands.

“You left the city again today?”

Ordinary people might not understand, but Wang Mingan did.

He had never heard his mother speak for as long as he could remember.

Madam Wang nodded and gestured again.

“I heard that Second Miss is back. Go and help Mother sneak a look. She’s doing well.”

“Mother!” Wang Mingan closed his eyes, feeling powerless.
