Chapter 7: Li Shan School

"Miss? What are you doing ..... here? ”

As soon as Tao Yao came in, she saw that the ground was full of crumpled rice paper, and she couldn't even settle down, and Jiang Zhi was standing in the middle of the desk, still struggling to write.

Jiang Zhi heard Tao Yao's voice, raised her head this time, but found that the sky was already bright, she put down the brush in her hand, raised her hand and rubbed her sore shoulder, turned her head, and said:

"The house is a bit messy, I'll clean it up in a while."

"Just come here for this matter, Miss better freshen up first, and then go to the school with the eldest lady and the second lady."

Tao Yao said as she put the copper basin full of water on the shelf, dipped it in water with a handkerchief, wrung it out and handed it to Jiang Zhi.

Hearing Tao Yao's words, Jiang Zhi raised her head and asked with a little surprise:

"To the Academy? Where is it? ”

"It's Lishan School, just on the street in our backyard, many young ladies and young masters in Chungju are studying there, and even the daughters of the government are there, it's the best school."

Tao Yao said as she picked up the horn comb on the dresser again, and began to comb Jiang Zhi's bun, and then wrapped it with green silk, and a jade bell fell on each side, which was quite smart.

"Can you not go?"

Jiang Zhi was not interested, her eyes were fixed on the discarded rice paper on the table, and she sighed lightly.

"Of course not, the uncle has paid the money, don't waste it, and isn't it a good thing for the young lady to read and learn calligraphy."

"Well, then let's go, by the way, tell you everything, wherever there is charcoal, or goose feathers, it's okay."

Hearing Tao Yao's words, Jiang Zhi suddenly turned her head, looked at her, and asked with bright eyes.

Tao Yao was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Yes, there are all, last year's charcoal, there is still a surplus in the warehouse, but our house does not raise geese, if you want goose feathers, you have to go to Feng Duwei's house next door, Feng Duwei's favorite is to raise geese, and he has at least twenty of them."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhi's forehead slid a black line, this girl thought how many goose feathers she wanted, and hurriedly said:

"It doesn't take so much, just three or five, you go and prepare, I'll be useful."

Tao Yao nodded, patted her chest, and said:

"Okay, miss, when you come back from school, the slave must have prepared properly, and will never let you down."

Jiang Zhi nodded, picked up the cloth bag that Tao Yao prepared for her, there were two books and the four treasures of the study, the corners of her lips twitched, she was in her thirties, she went to school again, and it was also a novel experience.

"Sister, sister, my brother and I are going to class today, is my sister going?"

A lake-green figure ran in from outside the door, threw himself into Jiang Zhi's arms, raised his head, his eyes were very bright, and his immature voice asked with novelty and excitement.

Then, followed by Jiang Li, who was wearing a light blue embroidered cloud robe, with a touch of maturity on his immature little face that he shouldn't have at his age, just looking at Jiang Zhi's eyes full of dependence.

"Yes, yes, my sister goes to school with you, Xiaoxi, Xiaoli, are you happy?"

Jiang Zhi's eyes softened a lot, bent down slightly, pinched Jiang Xi's ruddy little face, and asked with pleasure in her voice.

"Okay, Xiaoxi wants to go to school with her sister and brother."

Jiang Xi said excitedly, while taking Jiang Zhi and Jiang Li's hands and walking towards the door.

………….

"I don't eat, I can't eat, how can I be in the mood to eat."

Aunt Zhao looked at the golden silk fish rolls, Babao Zhen duck and other dishes brought by Qiu He, leaned on the couch, waved her hand impatiently, and said:

"I'm so angry, I'm really angry, that's more than 30 shops, all of them were given to those few sluts, is the master's brain in the water, it's all that slut."

As he spoke, he picked up the chopsticks with a hum, took a piece of golden silk fish roll and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing as if he was relieved of hatred.

Qiu He pursed her lips, and suddenly heard a sound outside the curtain, and then a middle-aged man in a navy blue robe walked in, she hurriedly lowered her head and whispered:

"Auntie, the third master is here."

Aunt Zhao hurriedly raised her head, and it happened that Qin Feng also walked to her side, looking at her only son, she hooked up a smile and said:

"Feng'er, why are you here today, sit down, it's hot outside."

Qin Feng took the opportunity to sit down, looked at Aunt Zhao, a pair of merry eyes flashed with a trace of ill-intentioned light like a mouse, and said:

"Does my aunt have any money to spare?"

Hearing this, Aunt Zhao's original mood of being happy to see her son was instantly like being poured a basin of cold water, cooled down, and asked:

"You're blocking again, how much do you owe?"

A hint of gloom flashed in Qin Feng's eyes, and he said:

"I had already won 50,000 taels yesterday, but who knew that my father sent someone to urge me back, and I was anxious, and I lost all the last one, and I lost 50,000 taels."

After saying this, he sighed again, and spoke again:

"The shop given by my father is still in the hands of my eldest brother, if I move, my father will definitely know, so I can't do it for the time being, so I can only find my aunt to find a way."

After listening to this, Aunt Zhao pursed her lips, pulled Qin Feng's sleeve, and said in embarrassment:

"My son, where did my aunt get so much money, and now it's less than 30,000 private money, just this year, you have spent 100,000 taels inside and out, and the lord is suspicious, you listen to your aunt's words, don't go again."

After listening to Aunt Zhao's words, Qin Feng's face was obviously not good-looking, but he still spoke patiently:

"Auntie, I will earn this money back sooner or later, when the time comes, let alone 100,000 taels, it is 1 million taels, it is just a blink of an eye, you are a woman's opinion."

Seeing that Aunt Zhao's face was a little bad, Qin Feng paused and began to say again:

"Auntie, give me the 30,000 taels first, and I'll borrow the remaining 20,000 taels from Zheng Er."

Aunt Zhao was obviously unwilling, but it was not easy to dismiss her son's words, so she went to find the box where the 30,000 taels of silver tickets were placed, and said:

"Listen to my aunt's words, you still have children to raise, if this money is gone, there will be no more, you can spend it carefully."

Qin Feng took it, counted it in his hand, and sure enough, it was thirty thousand taels, put it in his pocket, and said with a smile:

"Auntie, don't worry, and recently, you go to your father's side more, he must still have some private money, you can find a way to get it, as for Jiang Zhi's sisters and brothers, you can only rest assured that your son has a way."

"What can you do? It's not like you didn't see the attitude of the old man yesterday, and the slut, who was determined to support the three of them, I know, those three were born to her, so she didn't care, she only bullied our mother and son. ”

After listening to this, Aunt Zhao hurriedly shouted.

Qin Feng recalled in his mind what Zheng Er said to him in the casino, evoked a wicked smile, and said:

"You can rest assured, the three of them will not take advantage, maybe there will be a windfall, my aunt will wait at home with peace of mind."

After saying this, he walked out of the Le Yi Courtyard without looking back, and the little guy next to him gave him an umbrella and went straight to the gate of the Qin Mansion.
