Chapter 9 Wrong, Wrong, Wrong Again

Jiang Jiang barely passed the first test.

But the rest...

Jiang Jiang's grades were the worst among all the palace maids.

This time, the system really believed what Jiang Jiang said about being illiterate.

Before this, the system still had some doubts that Jiang Jiang's claim of illiteracy was an excuse or a way of being modest.

[You really can't read? ]

"Yes, I really can't read, and I haven't been to school for half a day. Thanks to you, I have been learning for a month. You don't know how difficult it is to learn those things. It's really torture."

[You can't do this, you can't do that, then what can you do? ] The system lost its fighting spirit and was successfully influenced by Jiang Jiang, so it just lay down and let it rot.

"I can farm, I can make wine, I can make pickles, I can also make pickled vegetables, moldy tofu, stinky tofu... there are so many things!"

【How does this help us in our mission? 】

"It's useless...right?"

【Then why did you say such a long list? 】

"That's right! Then I can't do anything!"

[……]Damn host!

"My name is Jiang Jiang, what's your name?"

[…The system only has numbers, no names.]

"So what's your number?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a long string of garbled numbers appeared in front of Jiang Jiang, none of which Jiang Jiang recognized.

"I don't understand. If you don't have a name, how about I give you one?"

[…The host has the final say.]

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Jiang remembered a movie he had watched on someone else's TV before. There was a scene of a meteor shower in the movie. Jiang Jiang liked the scene of meteors shining in the sky very much. "Xingxing, from now on you will be called Xingxing."

【Thank you for the name, host. 】

Jiang Jiang waved her hand and said you’re welcome with a smile.

The examiner's mother asked everyone to go back and prepare for the next exam, and told everyone to attend class and work hard.

The eliminated palace maids were separated and banished from the princess' palace to do hard labor.

The dozen or so people who remain, including Jiang Jiang, will be eliminated in three months.

Where will it be allocated next time?

Excited? Thrilled? Expecting? Nervous? Worried? Or confused?

Jiang Jiang didn't know that her character would also be tested after entering the palace.

I thought the examination before entering the palace was strict enough.

The palace is full of bad people.

Jiang Jiang shrank his shoulders and felt a little colder.

Jiang Jiang has a piano lesson every three days and practices for two or three hours.

"Wrong, wrong, and wrong again!" The master stroked his beard and shook his head, sighing, "Tan Jiangjiang! What on earth are you playing? I've taught you so many times and you still can't learn it! How ridiculous! How ridiculous!!"

Jiang Jiang stood up, blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look at the teacher.

Others can learn a page of music in class, and those who are slower can learn it in two days. However, Jiang Jiang studied for seven or eight days and still couldn't play it correctly once.

The teacher was almost holding Jiang Jiang's hand and playing the piano himself, but Jiang Jiang felt ashamed and found it difficult to face the teacher who had taught him so hard.

"Master, please calm down. I am still young, and it is difficult for me to learn these things. Please don't be angry." The girl on the far right of the first row stood up and bowed slowly to the master, gracefully and gently, with a faint smile on her face.

The teacher relaxed his impetuous chest, rolled his eyes at Jiang Jiang, turned back to his piano and sat down, calmed down his anger, waved his hand to let the girl sit down, and asked Jiang Jiang to continue standing, "Then Miss Yanran will teach her more after class in the future."

In fact, it didn't matter whether Jiang Jiang stood or sat, but Jiang Jiang felt guilty and stood for several hours during the piano class.

Miss Yanran is the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor. The princess' seat is on her left. The princess is not here today, so the seat is empty. She occasionally attends classes with these companions, but is not seen at other times. The seat to the left of the princess' seat is that of General Xiao's daughter.

Because they were far away, Jiang Jiang couldn't see the expression on Miss Yanran's face.

However, Jiang Jiang was sure that Miss Yanran must be regretting why she stood up and spoke for her.
