One hundred and thirty-six: Far Away

Second Mrs. Xu was still in a panic, until Second Master Xu took the letter and went to find Ji Chen in person, and her sons had already returned from school, that she finally restrained her thoughts and did not show it anymore so that the children could notice the uneasiness of adults.

The children don't know why their mother doesn't seem to be in good spirits today, chattering about what is happening in the genealogy.

The fourth young master was especially active, pulling the second lady and said: "Mother, today the sixth brother is sick, Mr. will not give lectures, only let us read by ourselves, I have something I don't understand to ask Mr., Mr. also ignored me, I don't want to study with the sixth brother and them." ”

The second lady was suddenly gloomy.

They have no place in the family themselves, so the children have always been inferior.

The concubines of the big house are more noble than the concubines of their second room.

It's clearly a family study, but in fact, it seems to be just a school for the big house.

The Fourth Young Master and the Seventh Young Master both hung their heads in frustration, and talked about the fact that because of the marriage of the second brother, there had been no classes in the family studies for many days.

Their father taught them to study hard, so that they could serve the court and earn glory for their parents in the future, but the family looked down on their studies so much, where could they study well in the future?

Besides, even if they want to take the martial arts, they don't have their way.

The family is in charge of the big house, and no one will pay attention to the people in their second room at all.

Sensing the grievances of the children, Second Mrs. Xu's heart felt even more angry, too much, too much!

What family?!

She put away these resentments, deliberately showed an angry expression on her face, scolded the children for thinking too much, and told them to rest and rest again, don't think about these things anymore, and let the second master Xu go to find other gentlemen for them, or go to Hedong Academy to study.

Hedong Academy?!

The Fourth Young Master and the Seventh Young Master glanced at each other, and both of them couldn't help but be hooked by the four words of Hedong Academy.

Hedong Academy is the only academy in the capital that can be compared with Guozijian.

Even Fan Daru is working as a clerk in Hedong Academy!

But Hedong Academy is not so easy to enter.

Both of them couldn't help but feel that this matter was a bit extravagant, and soon lowered their heads in disappointment.

If the children of the big house want to enter Hedong Academy, it may be simple, but if it is the two of them, where is it so simple?

My father's official position is not high, and he is not valued by the family, that is, he has gradually begun to do some things for the family outside in the last year or so, which is also limited, who will give his father face?

Letters of recommendation are a problem.

They felt that this was a deliberate excuse for their mother to comfort themselves, but the second lady Xu really took this matter as an important matter to do, and when the second master Xu sent the letter back, she couldn't wait for the second master to say what he had done on Ji Chen's side, so he first talked to the second master about the school, and said directly to the second master: "I remember that Miss Zhu has a very good relationship with the Fan family, if Miss Zhu is willing to help, then the future of Xiao Si and Xiao Qi is promising." ”

Second Master Xu naturally took the children's affairs to heart, and besides, he originally felt that the family studies at home did not attach importance to the children, and he should not be able to learn anything.

He nodded, naturally agreed, and said to Second Mrs. Xu: "Since I talked about this matter, then I can only be an unfilial son." ”

Second Mrs. Xu heard that something was wrong and turned her head to look at him.

Unfilial son?

The second master had never said such a thing before.

She subconsciously knew that Second Master Xu should have reached a consensus with Ji Chen, and she was startled and felt scared at first, but then she mustered up her courage because of her experience in the past few days, and quickly accepted this fact.

The Xu family's ambitions are getting bigger and bigger, and they dare to assassinate King Xin, and the battle between them and King Xin is about to break out.

They couldn't follow the Xu family to death, but it was Zhu Yuan, and Zhu Yuan took care of the people in their second room from the beginning.

Following Zhu Yuan may not be worse than at home.

After all, the Fan family, the Wang family, and the Chen family, which of these people is not very close to Zhu Yuan?

On the contrary, their family was taken care of by Zhu Yuan everywhere.

She lowered her voice and asked the second master what he said to Ji Chen, but before the two of them could say a few words, there was a knock on the door outside, and the girl carried a lantern and said that the old lady had come to invite the second master over.

Second Mrs. Xu was immediately startled, and subconsciously grabbed Second Master Xu's arm: "Master, will it be you going out today.....

Second Master Xu patted the back of her hand soothingly, shook his head and said firmly: "No, my mother went to the palace today, I'm afraid it has something to do with this, nothing will happen, don't worry." ”

As he spoke, he motioned for the second lady to go and take out her big coat, and soon walked into the snowstorm.

The second lady stayed in front of the window and watched the second master go out of the courtyard door, and then sat down again in a distraught mood and began to embroider the patterns on the second master's new clothes.

The old lady's courtyard was brightly lit, and the red gauze lamp hanging outside the courtyard gate emitted a dim yellow light.

He lowered his eyes, entered the door and honestly greeted Mrs. Xu first, and then saluted the prince and Mrs. Xu.

With this glance, he knew that compared to the morning, Mrs. Xu and Shizi were in a much better mood now, and they just entered the palace......

He thought so in his heart, but his face did not show it at all, and he stayed respectfully and waited for Mrs. Xu's orders.

Mrs. Xu held a hand stove in her hand, raised her eyes and glanced at the second master Xu, coughed and said, "Let you come, there is something for you to do, you go to your hometown." ”

The Xu family's hometown is in Jinling, are you going to Jinling? Second Master Xu's heart jumped suddenly, but there was a look of surprise on his face.

Mrs. Xu asked him to sit and said quietly: "There is something going on in the clan school in my hometown, and it is very unbearable, those people in my hometown take the silver given by our family but fill their own pockets, deduct the use of those distant brothers in the clan, and bully orphans and widows. ”

Xu Qing?!

Of course, Second Master Xu knew who Xu Qing was, and he glanced at Xu Zhaohai and his wife with his spare eyes, but he didn't see what they meant.

But Xu Qing is Xu Zhaohai's confidant, and he has just returned from the field......

Now Mrs. Xu asked him to take Xu Qing to Jinling, saying that it was just because of the fact that the clan was deducting the school's expenses, but in the eyes of the second master Xu, it must be just a disguise.

This kind of thing has been around for a long time, and last year, there was a distant child of the Xu family who came to the capital and almost died at the door, but after more than a year, the family didn't say anything.
