Chapter 156 Freshmen
Gu Jin carefully examined Chen Anan's pulse and found that she was indeed poisoned.
But Chen Anan had been poisoned for too long, so Gu Jin could not guarantee that he could fully recover.
But even so, Princess Pingxi was still very happy, "Now I don't ask for much, I just hope that he can take good care of himself after the prince and I are gone."
"I will do my best." Looking at Chen Anan with an innocent face, Gu Jinzheng solemnly promised.
Princess Pingxi hadn't felt so comfortable for a long time. She wiped the tears of excitement from her eyes and stood up and said, "Ajin, you and An'an eat the fruits first. I'll go prepare some snacks for you two."
The nanny beside Princess Pingxi smiled and said, "Our princess is best at making osmanthus cake. The Third Young Madam will definitely like it."
"Thank you very much, Princess." Gu Jin felt that it was easy to get along with Princess Hepingxi. She did not have the arrogant airs of a noble lady.
Chen Anan was fiddling with the nine-ring chain in his hand, but he couldn't figure it out after playing for a while. He got so angry that he tore the jade chain apart with force.
Gu Jin: “…” This strength is truly like Li Yuanba’s reincarnation.
Gu Jin's eyes turned, and seeing that no one was around, he asked with a smile: "Prince Chen, why did you call me Sister Fairy when you first met me?"
Chen Anan put down the shattered Nine Links in her hand, tilted her head, and said seriously: "Because you are the Fairy Sister!"
Gu Jin thought carefully and tried to make the question as clear as possible. "But there were so many people at the palace banquet that day. How did you know that I was the Fairy Sister?"
"Because I've seen your portrait!" Chen Anan shook his head, looking smug.
Gu Jin raised his eyebrows, "Portrait? Where have you seen my portrait?"
Chen Anan replied without any defense: "It's in my parents' study!"
"Did the princess ever tell you who the person in the portrait is?" Gu Jin felt like he was one step closer to the secret.
Chen Anan blinked and looked at Gu Jin, and suddenly giggled, "Sister Fairy, you are so stupid, of course the person in the portrait is you!"
Gu Jin: “…” It’s so tiring to communicate with a “naughty kid”!
Chen Anan indeed knows everything, but the key problem is that he knows nothing!
Gu Jin was so depressed that he became autistic. Chen Anan couldn't understand people's expressions, so he happily showed Gu Jin the precious stones he had collected.
After Gu Jin ate the osmanthus cake, he stood up and said goodbye. Princess Pingxi watched Gu Jin leave, and the nanny beside her asked, "Princess, why did you deliberately leave the Third Young Lady and the Prince together? Aren't you afraid that the Prince will say something he shouldn't say?"
Princess Pingxi sighed, "Because I don't know whether I should tell this child about her life experience. If she wants to find out, I won't stop her."
I just hope she won't end up like her mother...
……
Autumn is fleeting and winter is coming. This year's winter seems to have come earlier and later than in previous years. As early as the end of autumn, some families have started to light ground heating pipes.
As the weather gets colder, restaurant business becomes more and more prosperous. It is so comfortable to eat a hot pot in this cold and damp weather.
Gu Jin's school was also on track. The children in the school had no worries about food and clothing, and they could study in a warm room, which led to more and more parents sending their children to the school.
When the powerful people heard about this incident, they just treated it as a joke. Many people even felt that Gu Jin was just trying to gain fame and reputation. What kind of school could a woman run?
Gu Jin ignored the gossip. The effect of this school had already begun to show.
Because studying is not something that can be achieved overnight, the school also offers many courses, such as needlework.
Girls from ordinary families only know how to sew and mend, and without anyone teaching them, they don’t know how to embroider.
After studying for a period of time, some clever and dexterous children can already embroider some handkerchiefs and sachets to sell to supplement their family income. When they are older, they can go to embroidery shops to work as embroiderers.
Although the work is not easy, it is enough to support oneself. If a woman has her own value, she will not be hastily married off in exchange for a few taels of betrothal money.
"Sir, what do you think of the butterfly I embroidered?"
"Sir, can you help me take a look at this color combination?"
……
A young woman in a dark blue double-breasted gown was moving among a group of girls. Although she was busy, she always had a gentle and patient smile on her face.
Seeing Gu Jin standing outside the door, she quickly stood up to greet him, "Madam, you are here!"
Gu Jin raised his hand to stop her from bowing, looked at the woman in front of him with a smile and said, "Amber, I think you look even more beautiful now."
The teacher of the needlework class was Amber.
But this time she had changed her previous tight-fitting long skirt and heavy makeup. She wore a plain, loose-fitting, double-breasted long gown, and her long hair was tied up with only an ebony hairpin.
Amber felt a little shy when she heard that, and subconsciously tried to tuck her long hair around her temples, only to find that the loose hair around her temples had already been combed into a neat bun.
She is now a respected and loved teacher by these children, and no longer a pawn who can only use her erotic skills to seduce men.
"I like myself now, too."
She was originally a girl of innocent background. Her family's embroidery workshop went bankrupt due to poor management. Her parents died early and she was sold to the palace by her uncle and aunt.
Because of her outstanding appearance and charming figure, she was favored by Concubine Wan and became a tool for warming the bed.
And now she has a new lease on life, and she loves it.
The young mistress had not lied to her. It turned out that people like her could live with dignity...
