Chapter 679 Sister, I'm Sorry (29)

Albudo patted the back of the old prince's hand, signaling him to be at ease.

"I do it for a reason."

"Your two granddaughters are both so outstanding. Since they are both excellent people, they will naturally have a competitive mentality, even if they have the same mother."

"I know you, as a grandpa, want to make up for the little one, but sometimes you can't go too far, otherwise it will make the other person feel neglected and resentful, so who do you think she will put her resentment on? Woolen cloth?"

The old prince was silent, because he knew that what Albudo said was right.

Sometimes blindly pampering Miriel is actually doing her a disservice.

"Okay, you are very knowledgeable, I can't tell you apart, so you have the final say." The old duke broke the jar and said.

Albudo stood up with a smile: "Don't worry, I have my own measure, and I won't treat that little granddaughter of yours badly."

"Now that we've talked, I can't wait to see her."

After a brief nap, Bai Wu washed up and dressed before going to the study under the guidance of the housekeeper.

This is the largest study place in the castle, even comparable to a small library.

Not only the facilities are complete, but also all types of books can be found on the assortment of bookshelves.

When she opened the door and entered, she saw Ai Si sitting at the table at a glance.

She wasn't surprised by that, though.

On the contrary, if Ai Si wasn't sitting here, it would surprise her.

Withdrawing her gaze, Bai Wu saluted Albudo respectfully.

Albudo saw that she was not shy and restrained at all, but very generous, dignified and polite, and his impression of this little girl improved a lot.

When Bai Wu straightened up, Ai Si slowly got up from her seat, came to her, and took her hand.

"I'm sorry, sister. I should have told you in advance. We may have to study together in the future. You don't mind, do you?"

She looked at Bai Wu cautiously and earnestly, as if Bai Wu was such a messy and unreasonable person.

Naturally, Bai Wu could see through her small thoughts, and after hiding the sarcasm in her eyes, she held Ai Si's hand and smiled gently.

"Sister, you made me panic when you said that. You are so outstanding. You should have been a student of His Excellency Albudo more than me. It was only because Grandpa worried that I would be too stupid and lose the face of the Rhodes family. Come learn."

"But it's all right now. I'm so happy to have you with me."

She then laughed wildly, as if Ais's arrival had brought her such a big surprise.

Didn't see the aggrieved and embarrassed expression she wanted to see on Miri'er's face, Aisi's expression froze, and she couldn't say what she had planned.

Albudo at the side was even more surprised to see Bai Wu being so open-minded and cheerful.

Originally, he was worried that the two sisters would compete internally and fight openly and secretly, but now it seems that this Miriam is really pure and lovely, gentle and kind.

No wonder the old man liked it so much.

Albudo coughed lightly, interrupting the tenderness of the two sisters.

"Okay girls, let's start today's study."

Only then did Ai Si hold Bai Wu's hand full of concern and sat down on the seat.

Albudo stood in front of them, pushed the glasses on the eye sockets, and in an instant, the sharp eyes that belonged to the wise all came back.

Even someone as deep-hearted as Ai Si couldn't bear the gaze of such eyes.

"I have already learned about Ais's study status before, so now, it's your turn, Miriam, please tell me what books you have read before?"

Bai Wu didn't speak, but lowered her head slightly.

Seeing her appearance, Ai Si satirized inwardly, and then smoothed things over for her with a kind face.

"Your Excellency Albudo, you may not be aware that my younger sister, Miriel, has been living on the farm before, and has never hired a teacher."

But Albudo did not soften his expression because of Aisi's explanation.

"Miss Miriel, have you never read any books yourself?"

Only then did Bai Wu raise her head, and met Albudo's sight with somewhat timid eyes.

Only then did she discover that behind his seemingly stern look was full of encouraging power, as if he was trying to guide her intentionally.

After bending the corners of her mouth knowingly, Bai Wu said slowly: "Return to Your Excellency Albudo, I have only read the Bible."

Albudo didn't show too much surprise, after all, even if a family can't afford to eat, they will definitely let their children receive the influence of the "Bible".

So he asked again: "Then talk about your feelings, or talk about which part you like best?"

Bai Wu glanced at Ai Si beside her, and nodded.

"My favorite passage in Proverbs is: 'You shall also understand righteousness, justice, and uprightness, and all that is good. Wisdom shall enter into your heart, and knowledge shall be the beauty of your spirit, and counsel shall guard you, and understanding shall guard you, to deliver you from the evil way, from those who speak perverse words, who leave the straight way and walk in the way of darkness'.

This reminds us that we must be benevolent, fair, and kind. Only by maintaining such a pure nature can knowledge and wisdom appear.

So, Mr. Albudo, I think that the first thing to measure a person is whether she has kindness, not wisdom, right? "

Her voice was very soft, and she seemed to be pouring out her heart when she spoke.

But when it reached Aisi's ears, the voice became sharp and piercing.

It's like mocking her evil thoughts, mocking her for speaking perverse words, abandoning the righteous way, and turning to the evil way.

For a moment, Ace panicked.

She hated the "Bible" very much since she was a child. Whenever her mother read to them, she always secretly covered her ears.

Because she always feels that in those sharp words, everything she hides will be exposed invisible.

Her evil and her hatred will be ridiculed and punished by God.

So she quickly grabbed the porcelain cup on the side and poured warm water into her throat, trying to calm herself down so that she wouldn't be noticed.

But how could this escape Bai Wu's eyes?
The smile in the corner of her eyes deepened, and those deep and clear blue eyes looked straight at Ai Si.

The red lips moved slightly, and she asked her in a brisk voice:
"Sister, what do you think?"

Ace trembled uncontrollably.

She tried her best to look at Bai Wu, making herself look calm.

But looking at it, she seemed to see the ugly scars under half of her mask.

They turned into a ball of flames, burning her crazily.

"Teng—" Ai Si stood up, her eyes widened, and her breathing was rapid.

Bai Wu hurriedly pretended to be helpless and stood up, stepping forward to comfort her.

"Sister, I'm sorry, did I scare you?"
