Although Shen Wenjiao's mother, Grandma Shen, was a traditional woman with feudal ideas, she was not a fool who only cared about her husband. She had her own ideas and way of life. As expected, there was no such life-and-death love story in novels! In most cases, it was just the inner house women who used all kinds of methods to live in order to rely on men.

If Shen Wenjiao was a boy, Grandma Shen could even just treat herself as a widow and completely ignore the existence of Master Shen. Anyway, with the support of the Shen family, she could always raise her son well and have someone to rely on.

But it was not possible now. Even if Grandma Shen still felt sorry for her only daughter so far, she was still a married woman. In order to have someone to rely on in the future, she still had to pay attention to the dynamics of Master Shen.

Therefore, like Master Shen, Grandma Shen also pays a lot of attention to the thoughts of Master Shen Si.

Grandma Shen was still discussing the Fourth Master's behavior and what might happen next with Lu Ma and the others. She didn't pay any attention to the poor deceased Fang Jie'er. She didn't even go to visit Fourth Grandma Shen who was heartbroken after losing her daughter.

Just when Shen Wenjiao was at a loss as to how to drag it on, Grandma Shen took Shen Wenjiao out of the small courtyard where she had been trapped for several months for the first time.

"Mom, can we go out today? Where should we go?" It would be a good thing for Shen Wenjiao to be able to get out of this square courtyard no matter where she went.

She was so bored recently that she used the Wenhao system to study all day long. Her progress was very good, but someone was watching her all day long. Shen Wenjiao stared at the front all day long, looking a little silly.

"Where can we go? I'll take you out for a walk, otherwise you'll get stupid. Really, you haven't learned any of your mother's intelligence and talent. When I was your age, I could even embroider handkerchiefs." Grandma Shen felt a little depressed when she mentioned this. Seeing that her daughter was in better spirits these days, she was going to teach her embroidery.

Come on, Shuang'er who was watching beside me can already sew a handkerchief, but this silly girl of mine can't even tell the threads apart and doesn't understand the colors.

Grandma Shen picked up Shen Wenjiao's small fleshy hand and pulled her rather slender little chicken claw. "Look at your long and thin hand, which is usually quite flexible. How come you can't even pick up a needle? What should I do in the future~"

Wang Ma has been feeling very proud recently. Jiao Jie'er is not good at sewing, but her own Shuang'er has learned it very well. In this way, Jiao Jie'er may be able to rely on Shuang'er more. It would be great if Shuang'er could become Jiao Jie'er's dowry in the future.

Isn't it because Lu Ma was Grandma Shen's dowry that she gets the most benefits on a daily basis and doesn't have much work to do?

"Oh, grandma, what is there to worry about? Our Jiao Jie is a daughter of the Shen family, and she will definitely find a satisfactory husband in the future. For this kind of sewing and mending work, can't we just find a good dowry? Our Jiao Jie will have to call servants and maids to live in the future, so it doesn't matter if she can't sew."

Grandma Shen was not stupid. The way Wang Ma looked at Shuang'er from time to time told her what she was thinking. She wanted her daughter to learn a skill and make some money for herself in the future. But what could she do if her daughter was incompetent?

As for Shuang'er, we'll have to wait and see! I don't think Wang Ma and the others would dare to cause trouble, as the Shen family has such a huge fortune!

"We'll talk about it later! Even though she can't learn needlework, my daughter Jiao can at least learn to read. Our master is the most learned man in the Shen family. It would be shameful if my daughter couldn't read a single word!"

It would cost a lot to teach Shen Wenjiao to read, as she would need to hire a female teacher, as well as pens, inkstones, and books. Grandma Shen, who lived on the monthly allowance from her family, might not be willing to spend that much.

But Grandma Shen didn't want her daughter to be blind and lose the face of Master Shen, so she had to find a way to get a free lesson! Grandma Shen's youngest son was going to learn to read recently, so she invited a teacher to lay the foundation. Her daughter was still young, so the separation between boys and girls was not strict.

Anyway, it’s just recognizing some words, that’s enough.

As for whether Third Grandma Shen is willing, that depends on First Grandma Shen's own ability.

The Shen family is a prominent local family. Apart from other things, each branch has a large number of people and courtyards. After coming out of Grandma Shen's small courtyard, Shen Wenjiao originally wanted to walk over by herself.

"Oh, our Miss Jiao has really made great progress. Okay, let our Miss walk first, and you should save some energy, Aunt Wang."

Grandma Shen was supported by Aunt Lu, and she looked at Shen Wenjiao, a little girl who was showing off without knowing how high the world was, with an amused look on her face.

"Mom, just wait and see! I'm already a four-year-old child, I can definitely walk this distance." Shen Wenjiao clenched her paws and promised solemnly. She was so small, and her appearance was a little funny.

Grandma Shen took up a handkerchief to cover the smile on her lips, so as not to upset her daughter, and then she started walking on tiptoe, on the pair of small feet that made Shen Wenjiao's eyes hurt.

Grandma Shen was indeed a woman who had long been accustomed to bound feet. She walked slowly and gracefully, and her steps were light and slow. Shen Wenjiao, a four-year-old child, had no difficulty following behind her.

But soon Shen Wenjiao couldn't laugh anymore. Her four-year-old body was not like the modern children who run and jump all day. She hadn't run and jump for a long time since she was born, so her soles were tender! Even though Shen Wenjiao took the health pills in the system's novice gift pack and her body slowly recovered, her soles didn't get any exercise!

Shen Wenjiao's feet were burning with pain, but she was too embarrassed to cry out in pain and ask Wang Ma to hold her, so she could only cry in her heart and persevere.

How could Grandma Shen not know that her daughter was walking slower and slower? At first, she wanted her to give in and give in, so she didn't stop immediately. But after walking for a long time, Grandma Shen couldn't bear it anymore. She turned around in a bad mood and glanced at Shen Wenjiao who was following behind with a listless look.

He sighed and tapped Shen Wenjiao's forehead affectionately, "You! Why are you so stubborn! Your feet must hurt ~ We're only halfway there! Can you make it?"

Shen Wenjiao decided to seize the moment and act like a hero. She hugged Grandma Shen's legs coquettishly, not caring about her face anymore. It would be good to break her promise and gain weight. She was too thin now.

"I regret it, I really regret it! If I had known earlier, I would have let Wang Ma hold me! Mom, I will never show off my strength again!"

Although Shen Wenjiao was small, she was very aggressive. She hugged her like a tiger, and even a woman with bound feet like Shen Da Niang could not hold on. Fortunately, Lu Ma was there to support her and she did not fall.

"You! You are getting smarter day by day. It would be better if you were a little more dexterous." Grandma Shen glared at her reckless daughter, feeling a little helpless.
