Chapter 376 - 376 Madam Qin Plans to Go Back
376 Madam Qin Plans to Go Back
Madam Qin was extremely interested in the women’s academy Little Ah Yu mentioned. Little Ah Yu kindly explained her ideals to her.
This was because the others all seemed to be coaxing Little Ah Yu and pretended to be very interested, but they actually did not share her idea.
Little Ah Yu was very sensitive and could naturally sense it, so she did not like to mention it to others.
Now that she saw that Big Brother Ah You’s mother was really interested, Little Ah Yu started talking.
However, she was only five years old after all. Even if she was smarter than her peers, her ideas were limited.
“I just want everyone like Big Sister Tang Yuan to be able to study. If they’re very good at studying, they can also become scholars like Second Uncle. In the future, they can be scholars and eat their fill even if they don’t get married.
Also, they can also be teachers and open their own private schools, just like Teacher Yang.
In our family, everyone says that I’m very smart and a very powerful child. However, they won’t allow me to take the imperial examination because they said that no one will agree to let me take the exam.”
At this point, Little Ah Yu looked up at Madam Qin with sparkling eyes. “You’re Big Brother Ah You’s mother. Big Brother Ah You can always understand my thoughts. You can understand this too, right?”
Madam Qin did not say if she was right. She only said, “Since your family told you that women can’t participate in the Imperial Examination, why do you still want to open a women’s college? They can’t participate even if they study. Wouldn’t that be a waste of time?”
“But I don’t think the adults are right.”
“What’s not right about them?”
Little Ah Yu: “Mother told me that our family was very poor in the past and everyone could not eat their fill. Later on, we found out that there were corrupt officials who took our food away, so everyone could not eat their fill.”
“So?”
“But before we caught the corrupt officials, everyone felt that it was Grandpa Tian who didn’t give us food,” Little Ah Yu said. “So what if we didn’t let the women take the Imperial Examination because it was also someone else who spouted nonsense and it wasn’t actually Grandpa Tian’s idea?”
“Ah Yu, be careful with your words!!” Chi Tu could not help but remind her.
How could they dare to talk about the Tian Family!
Madam Qin: “This conversation will stay among us. If you don’t spread it, no one will know.”
If the people sitting at the top wanted to punish folks for their private words,they would all be exhausted to death.
Madam Qin smiled at Little Ah Yu again. This time, she said sincerely, “Little girl, continue. I like to hear you talk.”
“Ok! I want to take a sip of water first. My mouth is dry.” Little Ah Yu took out a small gourd from her bag and drank a mouthful of water.
While she was drinking the water, Meatball could not help but secretly add more water for her.
Hence, she drank five mouthfuls from her palm-sized gourd.
After Little Ah Yu finished drinking, she pointed at the food box and said to Madam Qin, “Auntie, you should eat something too. These are all made by my aunt. The pastries she makes are very delicious!”
“Okay.”
“Let me tell you…”
Just like that, Little Ah Yu talked non-stop.
Meatball noticed that Madam Qin’s favorability points had increased again.
Although the speed was much slower than when it dropped just now, it was obvious that the favorability value this time was even more realistic.
Previously, it was as if there was a natural layer of favorability. Later on, it decreased because they met.
However, Little Ah Yu had earned the favorability points herself this time.
When the favorability reached 70, Meatball quickly realized that the merit base had suddenly increased.
Moreover, the merit points were not as it thought.
[!!!]
A person’s favorability could actually bring about so many changes?!
This was simply miraculous.
Not only that, the merit points could actually increase so much!
What was going on?
It was a little confused again.
Meatball was not good at leaving questions for the future. If it had any questions, it would ask on the spot.
After connecting to the spatial pocket, Meatball did not need to return to the Origin Space to communicate with that side.
After asking, Meatball found out that this Madam Qin might have a certain influence on the fate of the Great Chang Kingdom.
Therefore, her favorability towards Little Ah Yu might affect the entire country.
But now, because Little Ah Yu did not do anything, this favorability was only limited to a small area.
If she did something good for the country and the people through Little Ah Yu in the future, Little Ah Yu would obtain a large number of merit points.
This was a good thing!
At the very least, it meant that this person’s status in the Great Chang Kingdom was not low. Moreover, she was on the side of the good people.
[Fortunately, I didn’t forcefully activate the protective measures just now. Otherwise, this person would have been beaten to death.] Meatball was secretly glad.
Ever since it left the last time and something almost happened to Ah Yu, Meatball had upgraded its defense system.
Now, as long as Meatball’s energy was not destroyed, Ah Yu’s life would definitely not be in danger.
If anyone attacked her fatally, they would encounter a counterattack a hundred times stronger, just like the effect of the Myriad Spirit Water.
The other party would definitely die.
It also realized that the data system it had was only limited to an objective judgment.
The human heart was not a fixed thing that could be calculated with numbers to begin with. Perhaps a person judged to be absolutely kind could also become an evil person at a certain moment.
Or someone who especially liked Ah Yu might do something to hurt her for other reasons.
Even if that was not their intention.
It seemed that it had to be more careful in the future.
As soon as Little Ah Yu started speaking, she continued until night.
Liu Shi really could not sit still anymore. She sent away the last wave of guests at home and carried a lantern to the Qin Family to look for her.
She happened to encounter the Qin Family’s carriage that was sending Little Ah Yu back.
Little Ah Yu pulled Liu Shi onto the carriage. Chi Ding and Chi Tu only hesitated for a moment before choosing to follow their carriage.
However, they still chose to hide themselves in the end.
Liu Shi turned Little Ah Yu around nervously and looked at her several times.
“Ah Yu, are you alright?” She was really worried. If not for her mother-in-law stopping her, Liu Shi would have rushed over long ago.
“It’s fine. Big Brother Ah You’s mother is very good to me. I even wrote a letter to Big Brother Ah You. I wrote it myself this time because Aunt taught me a lot of simple words. Sometimes, I can express a lot with just a small circle. I’ll write such letters in the future!” Little Ah Yu said for a while before falling asleep in Liu Shi’s arms.
Liu Shi was shocked again, thinking that something had happened to her.
Tang Yuan hurriedly explained at the side, “Little Master has been talking all afternoon. Her voice is hoarse. She’s probably too tired now.”
“This little fellow.” Liu Shi was helpless, her eyes filled with gentleness.
After they left, Madam Qin bathed and changed under the care of Hua Hong and Lu Liu.
When she was about to fall asleep, Hua Hong said, “Since Madam is here, why don’t we go to Yong’an Village tomorrow to take a look? I heard that the peach blossoms in Yong’an Village are blooming extremely well.”
“No, I’ll go back early tomorrow,” Madam Qin said.
“Madam, aren’t you staying for a few more days?” Hua Hong was surprised. In order to make this trip, Madam had made many arrangements.
In the end, they were going back after only a day. It seemed too regretful.
“I’ve seen what I need to see. There’s no need to stay any longer.” Madam Qin thought of Little Ah Yu’s eyes and made up her mind to send someone to investigate some matters of the past.
Previously, Huai’er had probably found out something about the little girl’s background.
Fortunately, under a freak combination of factors, they even covered up for the little girl.
Even if the others investigated further, they would probably not be able to find out much.
