The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 71 Changing Mr. Yang’s Mind (2)

With red eyes, Yang Qi walked out of the upper room and went straight to the entrance of Wutong Courtyard, where Mrs. Ying had already been waiting for Yang Qi.

Under the guidance of Ying Pozi, Yang Qi entered Mr. Yang's house for the first time. The whole house was very large, but the overall decoration was very plain, which was very similar to the first impression Mr. Yang gave people. Most of the space in the whole house was filled with bookshelves of various shapes, and various types of books were placed on the bookshelves. Mr. Yang was sorting books on the innermost bookshelf.

As soon as Yang Qi entered the room, he knelt on the ground and said, "Sir, my grandmother has informed me of your decision. I came here today to tell you that I really like your teaching. I admire your profound knowledge and enjoy your teaching style. I know that I am not talented and do not expect to be your student. I just hope that you can give me a chance, a chance to sit in on the class. Sir, please rest assured that I will not disturb my second sister. I just hope to continue to listen to your teachings in class."

This was the first time Mr. Yang had encountered such a situation. It was undeniable that Yang Qi's words had given Mr. Yang a great shock.

Yang Qi's words made Mr. Yang see her determination and honesty, and also her innermost thoughts. Mr. Yang has seen Yang Qi's performance in the past few months. Mr. Yang admitted that this was the first time he had met a student as hardworking as Yang Qi, but it was impossible for two queens to appear in the same mansion at the same time. The purpose of Mr. Yang's teaching was to train the best woman in the Tianyuan Dynasty.

Therefore, although Mr. Yang taught in many mansions, they were all short-term. The only one he taught for a long time and the only one he recognized as a disciple was Bai Yuxin. Now, Mr. Yang saw in Yang Lan the same intelligence and potential as Bai Yuxin.

In fact, Mr. Yang himself was also shaken. If Yang Lan hadn't been there, Mr. Yang would have accepted Yang Qi, but now there was a better student.

Mr. Yang actually didn't know how to respond to Yang Qi's words. After thinking for a while, he said, "Yang Qi, if you have any questions during your studies, you can ask me." Mr. Yang's meaning was very clear, that is, he would still only teach Yang Lan.

Yang Qi's tears fell again: "Mr. Yang, Yang Qi learned "Three Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Names" from you. You told Yang Qi that 'reading the classics correctly and reading various histories' and 'understanding the past and present as if seeing it with your own eyes', is to use concise and concise words to present thousands of years of historical scrolls in front of us, and the narration is appropriate in details and the words are implicit and meaningful. But now, aren't you going to take Yang Qi to walk through this historical scroll?"

Yang Qi's words, like the sound of a bell, have been ringing in Mr. Yang's ears. Mr. Yang knew that he made rapid progress in teaching the Three Character Classic, and he only said a few more words with some emotion on this sentence. He did not expect that this girl would have such high expectations: "Yang Qi, you should know that the difference in talent between you and Yang Lan is not a little bit. Before, we were learning the most basic knowledge, and it was already very difficult for you to keep up. In the future studies, if I accept it, it will inevitably affect Yang Lan's progress."

Mr. Yang had one more thing to say. Yang Qi was only five years old, but Yang Lan was already seven. He had to teach Yang Lan to become an outstanding lady as soon as possible when she attended various banquets. Yang Qi's existence would definitely slow down Yang Lan's progress. The old lady might not have thought of this, but he had to make Yang Qi understand.

When Yang Qi heard what Mr. Yang said, she felt that Mr. Yang was not as determined as he was at the beginning. She wiped the tears from her eyes and said, "Mr. Yang, I won't learn everything like my third sister. I can only learn chess and music, so that I can keep up with my third sister. Sir, please rest assured that I will work hard and will not drag down my third sister's progress."

Yang Qi knew about the arrangement of Yang Lan in the mansion, and believed that the old lady had also expressed it to Mr. Yang in a subtle way. Yang Lan must be the hope of the whole mansion. Yang Qi believed that as long as it did not affect Yang Lan's interests, the old lady and Mr. Yang would not care too much whether to take him along.

Mr. Yang understood what Yang Qi said. Yang Qi had thought everything through. She was determined to become his disciple this time. Mr. Yang smiled and said, "You can go back first. You can come back to listen to the class at 5:00 p.m."

When Yang Qi heard this, he smiled widely and said, "Thank you, sir." Then Yang Qi kowtowed three times to Mr. Yang, which is the etiquette of becoming a disciple.

Mr. Yang looked at Yang Qi's smile and felt a little bitter. She knew that in this deep mansion, women were not suitable. In the past, he was unwilling to care about it. He looked around the capital and saw that there were always women who were not suitable. If he wanted to care about it, he would probably spend his whole life managing the Duke of Song's Mansion.

At this time, Mrs. Ying appeared in the room and handed Yang Qi a cup of tea. Yang Qi took it with a smile and handed it to Mr. Yang with both hands: "Master, please drink my disciple's tea."

Mr. Yang took the tea from Yang Qi and took a sip. "Yang Qi, I have accepted three students in my life, namely Bai Yuxin, Song Yanglan and you - Song Yang Qi. From now on, you must work very hard to live up to what you said today. To be my disciple, talent is secondary, and moral character is the most important."

Yang Qi kowtowed with both hands, completed the apprenticeship ceremony, and officially became Mr. Yang's third disciple. Yang Qi remembered what Mr. Yang said from the bottom of his heart. Mr. Yang had extremely high requirements for his disciples, not only in terms of talent, but also in terms of moral integrity.

In the previous life, Bai Yuxin stabbed Yuan Ruiyuan in the back with a sword, which laid the foundation for Yuan Ruiyin's victory. But Mr. Yang felt that Bai Yuxin's behavior was immoral. Since then, although he did not express any attitude publicly, he no longer interacted with Bai Yuxin, which was considered to have severed their master-disciple relationship.

Yang Qi left Wutong Courtyard with great satisfaction and immediately went to Shi'an Courtyard. Mr. Yang accepted him as his apprentice. Such a big happy event must be informed to the second aunt, eldest brother and A Yao as soon as possible.

The news that Mr. Yang had changed his mind soon spread to the upper room. The old lady wanted to look for something suitable for Yang Lan in her private storehouse, but she heard the news from Rong's mother. This third girl really made her successful.

Putting down the gift she had intended to prepare for Yang Lan, the old lady instructed Mother Rong: "Send the set of four treasures of the study that I just acquired in my room to Linhu Courtyard, as a gift for the third girl to become his disciple." Now that the third girl was able to become Mr. Yang's disciple, it was time to change her plans.
