Chapter 10: A New Way Out

Shen Qianwen was unaware of the change in his mother's tone, and said with a smile: "It's also a coincidence, I came out of the Wenhui and crossed through the West Market, and I happened to meet my sister and Lu's mother, so I took my sister back." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Zhang asked, "What about Mother Lu?" Why didn't you see her? ”

"Oh, I see she's gone grocery shopping." Shen Qianwen said with a smile.

Zhang reprimanded Shen Qianwen: "Your sister doesn't have a mother-in-law to accompany outsiders to look like, is our family such an unruly family?" Although these words were said to Shen Qianwen, they were directed at Si Ying.

Si Ying lowered his head, blushed, and said with a forced smile: "Auntie, I didn't think it through, I didn't think about it so much." ”

Zhang calmed down and said: "Girl, although my words are not listened to, but for your good, you don't look like a lady when you go to women's school, but since the school over there bailed you out and asked you to go, I didn't stop you, you should pay attention to yourself, don't let people talk about it, you are all older, it's not like when you were a child, you can mix and have fun." ”

Shen Qianwen and Si Ying both responded dejectedly: "Yes", and each went back to the room with their heads bored.

In the evening, when Shen Jiaheng came home from the official hall, Zhang said to him: "My son can't study at home with peace of mind, so let him go to the school building to live, and he can ask his husband at any time or ask his classmates for advice." ”

Shen Jiaheng looked at her strangely: "I said to let him go before, aren't you afraid that no one will take care of him outside, and he will be crazy, why did he change his mind again?" ”

"I used to think about it, but he is not too young now, and he should be able to control himself." Zhang said.

Shen Jiaheng has always wanted his son to move to the Fuxue Pavilion to concentrate on his studies, but his wife disagreed, and now he is very happy to see his wife say this, and said with a smile: "Indeed, it is easier to benefit from living in the Fuxue Pavilion and discussing more knowledge with classmates, which was the case back then." It's hard for you to finally figure it out. ”

Zhang sneered: "Can I not figure it out, it's easy to have an accident now living at home." ”

"Huh?!" Shen Jiaheng was taken aback when he heard this, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Qianwen actually picked up Si Ying and went home today." Zhang said indignantly: "It's really a disaster, just two days after I came, I made so many moths." ”

Shen Jiaheng was still wondering what was going on when Zhang said the first sentence, and it wasn't until she said "red face and trouble" that she understood his wife's worries, and said with a smile: "Oh, something big happened to me, it turned out that the two children went home together, what's the big deal." ”

Zhang stood up all of a sudden, and said: "Why is it not a big deal, this boy is the most easily confused at this time, for the sake of a woman, his studies have been wasted, and how many things have been forgotten about his home, if something bad happens, won't our Qianwen's reputation and future be ruined......"

Shen Jiaheng looked at his wife's worried appearance, felt that it was just a big fuss, and said with a smile: "How old is your niece, and she is still a child...... I think you're thinking too much. ”

"Men and women are not sitting at the same table at the age of seven, this is what the saint said, not to mention that they are still in the same car, and they are not accompanied by their mother-in-law. The so-called embankment of a thousand miles is destroyed in the anthill, and there is nothing to think about in order to prevent trouble. The more Zhang spoke, the more excited he became.

"Good, good...... Ay...... Madame is far-sighted, I can't do it, just let it be......" Shen Jiaheng still felt unimpressed, this dynasty has been established for 80 years, and seventy or eighty percent of the time has been dominated by women, and the people have gone out to socialize from ordinary people to wealthy families, and it is not uncommon for girls to be taken out by their mothers to socialize at the age of seven or eight, and it is not uncommon for boys and girls to play in one place. Only women who are about to marry or who have already paid the lottery will be locked up at home to be married. However, seeing his wife's appearance, he didn't bother to argue with her, she could do whatever she wanted.

Si Ying Zaohui, although she is not very familiar with men and women, but seeing Shen Qianwen moving away in a hurry, she also roughly understood what the Zhang family meant, so when Shen Qianwen moved away, she simply did not see him off. Seeing that Zhang's had always opposed Shen Qianwen's going to live in the Fuxue Academy, Lu Pozi suddenly changed her mind, she felt that it was wrong, and she also asked Si Ying, but Si Ying only said that she didn't know why, she was old and refined, so she naturally understood what Zhang was thinking, and although she felt that it was too much, she didn't dare to say anything.

As soon as Shen Qianwen left, Si Ying had no one who could speak at home, and he was isolated in school, so he had to bury his head in reading every day. Fortunately, there were a lot of miscellaneous classes in this decade, such as painting, embroidery, cooking, gymnastics, etc., which did not require books, which made her look forward to it.

On the second day after Si Ying returned to class, he was called by Governor Yang. There is nothing to do today, Governor Yang only wore a public uniform, took off the head, tied his hair like a man on his head, and only inserted a jade phoenix auspicious cloud hairpin, the jade phoenix was carved simply but delicately, revealing a kind of feminine softness under the Governor's deliberately blurred gender attire.

Yang Xuedu's attitude today was very casual, and when he saw Si Ying's salute, he smiled at her and said, "Well, here, sit down." ”

Si Ying sat a little stiffly on the chair on the right side of the official hall. Zhou Wenwen served tea, Si Ying didn't move, half-hung his head, sat honestly, only occasionally glanced at the school governor in the right position with the corner of his eye, waiting to hear what she said.

Yang Xuedu took a sip of tea and said to Si Ying, "Do you know why I want to bail you out of prison? ”

Si Ying shook his head, still half-bowed his head, and said: "The student doesn't know, he only knows the great grace of the superintendent, and the student will never forget." ”

Yang Xuedu smiled: "You know it's good to be grateful, but you don't have to thank me, there are other people who saved you, and I just acted on orders." ”

Si Ying looked at the school governor and didn't speak, but her heart had already turned several times, she knew that this matter was not simple, and Yang Xuedu called her to naturally explain this matter clearly, so she didn't have to take the initiative to ask.

Sure enough, Yang Xuedu continued: "Actually, it was the Empress Dowager Cihui who released you. Speaking of this, Yang Xuedu paused and looked at Si Ying.

Si Ying was a little confused and asked, "Why did the Queen Mother let me out?" ”

Yang Xuedu didn't answer directly, but only said: "The Queen Mother values you, it is your creation, and you yourself know the words 'thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace', the Queen Mother and her old man naturally have her deep meaning, how can we be unpredictable." ”

"That'...... Doesn't the Empress Dowager have any other instructions for me? Si Ying asked tentatively.

"I just told you to do your studies well." Yang Xuedu said earnestly: "The Queen Mother cherishes talents, you don't want to live up to the expectations of the Queen Mother."

Si Ying hurriedly stood up and replied solemnly: "Yes, I will not dare to live up to the Queen Mother's grace." ”

Yang Xuedu squinted his eyes and looked at Si Ying, the child had a flattered expression on his face, but his eyes were half-drooping, and he couldn't see the joy, the surprise, excitement, and gratitude from the heart of a child at this age after encountering these big ups and downs could not find the slightest trace in those dark eyes, but seemed to cover up the confusion in his eyes. She took a sip of tea, glanced at Si Ying again, and said: "Since the Queen Mother handed you over to the Taiping Academy, she naturally hopes that your affairs will be taken over by our Taiping Academy in the future, but you are not our dormitory student, and you have your own aunt in Chang'an, so it is not appropriate to meddle in your affairs, so you have to become a female student...... What do you think about this yourself......"

Si Ying knew that this was Yang Xuedu asking her to make a statement, whether she would listen to the girl in the future, or listen to her aunt, she immediately said: "My aunt will definitely not disobey the orders of the Queen Mother." "The Queen Mother is the one who got her out, if she can get her out, she can naturally get her back, does she have any other choice?

Yang Xuedu smiled: "I only ask you what you think, the Queen Mother doesn't ask you for anything in return, you are a little girl can't repay the Queen Mother anything, if you are willing to live with your family, then in the future, we are inconvenient to meddle in your affairs, of course, we will not embarrass you, what was you in the Taiping School Palace in the past, and what will be the future in the future, but if you are willing to become a person in the Taiping School Palace, the school will be responsible for cultivating you, and you will also be assigned by the school in the future." ”

Si Ying asked tentatively: "Is it for me to be a boarding student in school?" ”

"Then it depends on your performance, I want you to become a specially cultivated talent in our Taiping Academy, but this is an exception, you also know that the rules set by Emperor Zheng, if you want to make an exception or set a new rule in the school, it must be voted by more than seventy percent of the members, and it is not up to me to say it alone. So at the end of this month, I'm going to hold a general meeting of all staff to vote through, if everyone looks at your performance and thinks that you can pass, you will become a special talent in our Taiping Academy, if you can't pass, then you can only be a boarding student. Inspector Yang stared at Si Ying and said his plan lightly.

Si Ying's heart skipped a few times, then pressed it down, and asked, "Dare to ask the superintendent, is there any difference between this specially cultivated talent and a resident student?" ”

Yang Xuedu smiled: "Naturally it is different, as a special talent, your doubts in learning will be arranged by the school palace to answer your questions, the top floor of the school's library, has collected many rare books, even the gentleman in the school can not borrow it casually, but if you become a special talent, these are also with you to watch." As long as your grades are not lower than the top 10 in Zhaili, the school will give you a subsidy every year, and the scholarship will be calculated separately. After you are finished, I will also assign you some ministries, and there will be subsidies from the school. ”

Si Ying continued to ask, "Then where will the Academy Palace assign me in the future?" ”

Yang Xuedu knew that this was what this girl wanted to know the most, and said with a smile: "It depends on your performance, since the school palace is willing to spend so much energy to cultivate you, it is natural to hope that you can contribute to the school palace, as long as you have excellent grades, the school palace will give priority to recommending you." Of course, if you think that you can sit back and relax when you become a talent, then you are very wrong, if you don't succeed, then we can't put you in a position that you are not qualified for, you know? ”

Si Ying nodded: "Understand, this is natural." ”

Inspector Yang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Now first of all, let the teachers of the whole school palace pass the clause of special talents, I will hold a conference at the end of this month, and when the time comes, you have to introduce yourself in front of everyone and strive for their approval." Go back and get ready, oh, write out the draft of your speech, and I'll look at it later. ”

Si Ying said "yes" and retired. She hurriedly walked back, but her mind was chaotic, the Queen Mother, the Taiping School Palace and her own family were like a fog shrouded in her heart, and the road pointed by Yang Xuedu could vaguely lead to the end of the fog, but she still couldn't see the direction clearly.
