Princess Xiangrui in Huanzhu
Chapter 391
Until now, Benjamin did not think that it was a mistake for him to go through so much hardship and travel across the ocean to come to the Qing Dynasty. On the contrary, he thought it was a very valuable experience.
Because this place is really interesting and fascinating, he was deeply impressed by such profound cultural heritage.
Although there were some unpleasant things here and there were times when he was physically, mentally and spiritually exhausted, Benjamin still had no regrets.
When Yue Wanhan heard that Benjamin was a painter in the palace, she couldn't help but be moved. She asked curiously, "Can you draw a portrait for me?"
Benjamin answered without hesitation, "Of course." He was so happy that someone recognized his paintings that he couldn't help but speak in his native language.
However, Yue Wanhan did not understand this English sentence. She asked in confusion: "What button?"
Benjamin then realized that he had involuntarily spoken a foreign language and quickly explained, "It means of course and yes." Yue Wanhan nodded in sudden enlightenment, indicating that she understood.
Yue Wanhan has an extremely strong curiosity, and her personality is actually somewhat similar to Xiaoyanzi, but in comparison, she knows more about propriety. This may be related to her strict upbringing since childhood.
Although she grew up in a border area, her mother was a noble lady from a prominent family and was very strict with herself and her children.
In terms of etiquette, Yue Wanhan's mother held a unique concept: you don't have to practice it, but you must master it. It was this concept that made her have to be flawless in educating Yue Wanhan in etiquette.
In addition, Yue Wanhan is full of curiosity, keen on exploration and adventure, and interested in all new things. However, unlike Xiaoyanzi, she is not like Xiaoyanzi who loves freedom but is afraid of making efforts.
"Is that the language of your hometown?" Yue Wanhan has a special skill and can be called a language genius. She can handle Chinese, Manchu or Mongolian with ease.
"Yes." Benjamin nodded in response. He had been here for a while and had not used his own language for a long time. After all, he was determined to integrate into this place and naturally had to follow local customs.
But sometimes when you get excited, your muscle memory becomes uncontrollable.
After hearing what Benjamin said, Yue Wanhan's eyes suddenly lit up. She stroked her chin and murmured to herself, "This sounds very interesting." As if she had discovered a new world.
Benjamin on the side immediately understood what she meant. He was very smart and noticed the strong interest in Yue Wanhan's eyes, so he took the initiative to say, "If you want to learn, I can teach you."
Seeing Yue Wanhan's strong interest in the language and culture of his country, Benjamin was sincerely happy in his heart. After all, it is an honor to be able to teach others about the culture of his country.
Yue Wanhan was so surprised when she heard Benjamin's words that she asked excitedly, "Really?" She liked to explore all the unknown things, and now she had the opportunity to learn a new language, which made her even more excited. More importantly, it was free! Yue Wanhan couldn't help but feel that she had gotten a great deal.
Then, Yue Wanhan couldn't wait to reach an agreement with Benjamin: "It's settled then. You teach me the language of your country, and I can also teach you Mongolian, Manchu and Chinese. Oh, and you have to draw a portrait for me." After saying that, she counted them one by one on her fingers, with an arrogant look as if you had taken great advantage, which made people laugh.
Seeing Yue Wanhan so cute, Benjamin couldn't help laughing out loud. He raised his hand to cover the corners of his mouth and laughed secretly in his heart. He hadn't felt so happy for a long time, and this encounter really made him feel lucky.
It seems that the ancients were right, "A blessing in disguise". Although he encountered some unpleasant things, he met this like-minded friend because of it. Maybe this is the arrangement of fate.
Yue Wanhan and Benjamin made an appointment, because the palace was not open to anyone, but Yue Wanhan happened to have the qualifications.
Moreover, she and Princess Hexi had met several times by chance, so it was easier for her to enter the palace with Hexi's help.
Benjamin nodded: "If it's inconvenient for you, I can go out of the palace to find you."
If the mountain is not me, then I am the mountain. Benjamin did not hesitate at all.
Without waiting for Yue Wanhan to nod, Yue Qingshu came over in time to separate the two of them.
Yue Wanhan looked at Luo Yu who had a helpless look on his face.
Luo Yu: Sister, I tried my best. Brother Yue is too difficult to deal with.
Yue Wanhan blinked at Luo Yu. She didn't know what was wrong with Yue Qingshu today. She created the opportunity for him to be with Luo Yu, but he didn't cherish it and even spoke ill of Benjamin.
Yue Wanhan was simply speechless about Yue Qingshu. He was so disappointing.
As his sister, she had endured too much.
Coincidentally, Yue Qingshu also felt that he had endured too much.
He knew his sister's personality very well. She was a straightforward and cheerful girl, but a little rough and careless.
Yue Qingshu loved his only sister very much, so he warned anyone who tried to get close to his sister.
Especially someone like Benjamin who looks weird. Although he doesn't seem to have any ill intentions, he is a foreigner after all. Who knows what he is thinking?
He had heard that those foreigners were the best at flattering others and that they had bad intentions at first glance. Only Yue Wanhan was so simple that she couldn't see it.
Benjamin is his latest focus of observation.
Yue Qingshu's vigilant eyes made Benjamin a little nervous. This big and strong man seemed to have something against him.
After all, he was the one who had just rescued him, so Benjamin had to respond with a smile.
"It's getting late, we should go back home." Yue Qingshu said with a forced smile.
"Ah?" Yue Wanhan looked at the bright sun and clear sky above her head. How could it be late? Besides, they had not finished buying everything they wanted to buy.
But Yue Qingshu didn't care about what Yue Wanhan was thinking. He said goodbye to Benjamin in a hurry and left with Yue Wanhan and Luo Yu.
The whole process happened so quickly that even Yue Wanhan and Benjamin didn't react.
Benjamin was not a fool. After seeing Yue Qingshu's actions, how could he not understand?
In fact, he was really worrying too much. Ever since the incident with Xiaoyanzi, he no longer planned to fall in love.
His identity was ultimately a huge obstacle, and he had to admit that he never felt a sense of belonging here.
Moreover, it was obvious that Yue Wanhan came from a very privileged family background. How could he pull down the bright moon from the sky?
So he would not provoke Yue Wanhan. He truly regarded Yue Wanhan as a friend. To have a friend who did not despise him and accepted him was already a blessing in three lives.
