Chapter 521 New Classmate Zhang Nishang
As everyone sat down, the originally closed door was slowly pushed open by someone outside. With a slight "creaky" sound, a petite, chubby and cute little girl appeared in front of everyone.
There was a hint of coquettishness in her eyes. She first looked around at the children and sisters present calmly, and finally fixed her gaze on Xiao Yining.
Xiao Yining had a good memory and recognized this person at this moment. She was Zhang Nishang, whom she had met once before. She was the great-granddaughter of Old Lady Zhang, who rented a house to Xiao Yining's family when she first arrived in Yanjing, and the niece of Zhang Liangchuan.
Obviously, the little girl also remembered her. The moment she looked at her, a flash of anger flashed across her eyes. Then, she walked straight towards her without hesitation.
Seeing her approaching, Yu Ke, who was beside Xiao Yining, immediately stood up and bowed familiarly: "Hello, Miss Zhang."
Zhang Nishang didn't even spare her a glance, but looked little Yining up and down, then said, "You are Lin Yining? Why don't you greet me when you see me? Don't you know that my father is the governor of Qiongzhou, a fourth-rank official, and my grandfather is the prefect of Jingzhao, also a fourth-rank official?"
As soon as these words came out, the children around them frowned.
"Sister Zhang, this is a girls' school. The teacher said that classmates don't need to be so formal." Chen Jiaoyi reminded unhappily.
Zhang Nishang smiled when she heard this and explained, "Sister Chen, I was just joking with Lin Yining. My uncle said that Lin Yining is very smart, so I came here to tease her to see if she would take it seriously."
After that, she glanced at Yu Ke with contempt and continued, "Lin Yining, don't learn from Sister Yu Ke. It's so hard to understand the hierarchy that it makes people uncomfortable. It won't be too late to pay respect to me after you graduate from the girls' school."
Little Yining also glanced at Yu Ke, and seeing the redness of grievance in her eyes, she replied, "Miss Zhang, then you must remember to pay respect to my grandmother. My grandmother is the Princess of Jiahe, a first-rank official. She said that she would personally pick me up to meet my uncle and my younger uncle during this ten-day break. My uncle is the emperor, and my younger uncle is the second prince. I don't know what rank he is."
Zhang Nishang: ...
As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Ke chuckled and said, "Sister Yining has learned very well, thanks to Sister Zhang who wanted to teach you etiquette as soon as she came. If you meet someone who doesn't know etiquette in the future, you should teach her the same way."
Shi Wanwan behind her also kindly reminded: "Sister Zhang, sister Yining is at this age, it's time for her to learn to speak. The teacher will teach you these etiquettes carefully. If you teach them wrongly, and sister Yining doesn't understand and asks the wrong person, your grandfather and your father may get into unnecessary trouble because of your unintentional mistake."
Zhang Nishang's face flushed red instantly. She glanced at her classmates around her and saw that they were all holding books, looking at her with disapproval and hint of dissatisfaction, as if she had done something very wrong.
She bit her lips tightly, and was depressed for a long time. Finally, she squeezed out these words from between her tightly clenched teeth, "Sister Shi is teaching me that I was just thinking that Lin Yining's father was a scholar, and I was afraid that she would not understand and forget her mother's family."
After saying that, she secretly glared at Xiao Yining, and tears flashed in her eyes. She turned around and quickly returned to her seat. When she sat down, she did not forget to continue staring at Xiao Yining's back. The handkerchief she tightly grasped in her hand showed that she was very angry.
Little Yining felt the unfriendly gaze from behind and pursed her lips speechlessly.
She had only met this little sister twice. Last time, she targeted her for no reason, and she did the same this time. Could it be that their auras were incompatible?
This little episode also made the other children notice the inexplicable hostility that Zhang Nishang showed towards Xiao Yining, and they had no idea what the reason was.
But this person's previous behavior had already displeased them, so they naturally stood behind Xiao Yining to support him.
At the same time, Zhang Liangchuan at Yunfei College had no idea that his little niece would make things difficult for Xiao Yining who had just returned.
At this moment, after he finished telling Wang and Lin about the strange things that happened in Hanqiuyuan, he changed the subject with a hint of smugness in his tone: "Brother Lin, my daughter Nichang was also accepted into the girls' school this time, and coincidentally, she is in the same class as Qingjie. For this reason, I specifically asked Nichang to look after Qingjie."
Hearing this, Lin Yuzan bowed his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you so much, Liangchuan's niece. Sister Qing often plays with her classmates and sometimes doesn't know her limits. It makes me feel more at ease to have someone around to give me some advice."
Zhang Liangchuan waved his hand to stop him, and replied with a humble smile on his face: "Brother Lin, it's too polite to say that, but I'm really worried about my Nichang. My eldest brother and sister-in-law are both in office, and she is spoiled by my mother to the point of being a little spoiled. I'm afraid she will offend others unintentionally."
Then, he cast his gaze towards the towering walls of Hanqiu Courtyard in the distance, as well as the three-story pavilion in Linglong Courtyard next door, and whispered in Lin Yuzan's ear, "Brother Lin, if you can talk to Sister Qing, could you please secretly ask Sister Qing if my niece got along well with other girls in the girls' school?"
Lin Yuzan frowned slightly, then a helpless smile crept onto his face. He praised: "Brother Liangchuan's caring heart is something I admire. Okay, when the time is right, I'll ask my daughter."
Zhang Liangchuan smiled with satisfaction when he heard that. At this time, the unlucky place of Yunfei Academy - Hanqiu Courtyard was also nearby. He hurriedly said goodbye and left, fearing that he would be involved in bad things.
When the figure completely disappeared, the two of them could hear nothing again.
Wang Cheng finally laughed and shook his head, whispering: "This Yunfei Academy is really full of talented people. There are even people who pretend to be ghosts to scare people."
Zhang Liangchuan had been chattering all the way just now, but he only talked about one thing, which was the haunted incident in Hanqiuyuan.
This story begins on the day the emperor went to the palace.
After Pei Yi and Wu Haoran followed the large group and left Yanjing for their own reasons, the ghost appeared in Hanqiu Courtyard.
It is rumored that this ghost has broken hands and feet, and it wanders around Hanqiu Courtyard at midnight every year, making strange noises.
Encountering such a strange thing, the students of Hanqiu Academy naturally couldn't bear it and moved away one after another. However, the ghost was able to follow them like a shadow and appeared outside the window to stare at them.
As a result, those students had to be driven back in disgrace and continue to dance with the ghost.
Although this matter is strange, anyone with a brain would guess that it was caused by human beings. It's a pity that the mastermind behind the scenes has not surfaced so far and is still at large.
Regarding this matter, Lin Yuzan seemed quite calm. He sneered and said, "These people in Hanqiuyuan are all "chosen ones" selected by the former headmaster. It is possible that they have offended people unintentionally."
"I just don't know if that ghost...will dare to provoke us." Wang Cheng said lightly, and pushed open the gate of Hanqiu Courtyard.
After not being home for several months, the originally clean and tidy courtyard was now full of the breath of life and looked a little messy.
At that time, there was a student in Hanqiu Courtyard who he had never met before, sweeping up the fallen leaves in the courtyard. He looked up when he heard the noise and saw Wang and Lin. He was startled at first, but after a brief surprise, he quickly reacted and quickly put the broom aside. He stepped forward and said, "You two senior brothers are here to look for someone in Hanqiu Courtyard. All the senior brothers have gone to class and haven't returned yet. If you are looking for someone, I'm afraid you have to wait until the evening."
After hearing this, Lin Yuzan looked at the strange student with great interest, raised a humble smile, and said slowly: "I am Lin Yuzan, and I am also a student living in Hanqiu Courtyard. Senior brother, you look a little unfamiliar. Do you live here too?"
When Lu Tingfeng heard this, he immediately showed joy on his face: "So it's Junior Brother Lin who has returned. I'm Lu Tingfeng, the abbot's nephew."
Lin Yuzan's smile widened as he responded, "So you are Senior Brother Tingfeng. My cousin Pei Yi mentioned you in a letter, saying that you took good care of him."
Lu Tingfeng:......
