Shang Mingyuan happily greeted Lin Qingwan's aunt and nephew outside the side door, "Aunt Lin is finally willing to bring her cousin here, the old lady is thinking about it in her heart." ”

Lin Qingwan got out of the car and said with a smile: "Yubin also misses her grandmother very much, but she is considerate and knows that I am busy for spring ploughing, so she takes the initiative to take over the affairs of the family, otherwise I may not be able to pull out now." ”

"My cousin is so powerful, she can even take care of the house?" Shang Mingyuan was surprised, Lin Yubin was only thirteen this year, and several younger sisters in his family were about the same age as her, but they were still messing around.

Mrs. Shang was also surprised by Lin Yubin's ability, but she was half appreciative and half opposed, "You know it's good to feel sorry for your aunt, but don't miss your studies." ”

She turned her head and asked Lin Qingwan, "Her aunt, I don't know if I can invite a gentleman for Yubin?" Although family affairs have to be learned, the girl can only be in the boudoir for a few years, and she will not be so free when she gets married, so don't be too restrained by her, learn what she should learn, but play and play. ”

Lin Qingwan agreed: "No, I think so too, so I often tell her not to be restrained, while she is still young, play all the things she likes to play, so as not to be tired with her family after leaving the cabinet in the future, and no matter how much she has the heart, she will have no chance." ”

An old man and a young man glanced at each other, and they all saw a "confidant" from it, Lin Qingwan said: "I also want to invite a husband for her, but it is difficult for a female gentleman to invite, and a male gentleman always has something that cannot be taught, so it has been delayed until now." If the old lady has a good candidate, she has to tell Qingwan. ”

Now there are few scholars who study, let alone women, which woman who can read is not from everyone's background?

Except for their own children, who rarely come forward to teach outsiders, there are some women from middle-class families who come out to earn a living, but very few.

Even if there is, it is often robbed as soon as it appears.

The three girls of the Shang family also read, but it was the old master who taught them, in addition to the "Book of Songs" and "Analects", etc., they also learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but the old master's teaching was limited, and the four arts were more biased towards chess books, and the piano and painting were not mediocre.

In the past, Sister Wan'er's schoolwork was also taught by her master, but with her brother Lin Jiang's tutoring, when she arrived at Lin Yubin, Lin Qingwan naturally didn't want her to be wronged.

It's naturally good to be able to invite a female master, but if you can't, then you have to invite a better male master, she is very demanding, so naturally she can't find a suitable one for a while.

Old Mrs. Shang also had a headache, "It's better to let her come to the house to study with Danlan and them first, and then talk about it when you find a suitable one." ”

Lin Qingwan was about to excuse herself, but she heard Shang Mingjie say in a loud voice outside the door: "Grandmother, I know where there is a good gentleman." ”

Shang Mingjie stumbled in and said happily: "Grandmother, you forgot, Mr. Shi wants to teach in the Lu family school, and he also posted a post to our family, as long as you pass the exam, you can go to the Lu family school to study." ”

"Nonsense," Old Madam Shang frowned, "There are still a group of male students in the Lu family's school, how can your sisters go there to study?" ”

"Why can't it, my grandson has gone to see it, Mr. Shi has separated a courtyard, and the female students have another door to enter and exit, which has nothing to do with the male students." Shang Mingjie said again: "What's more, the students studying in the Lu family school are all from the big family, don't think about people in a dirty way." ”

Old Madam Shang glared at him, "Hugh is talking nonsense, grandmother, why do I think about people in a dirty way?" Isn't there also a poor family in the Lu family? ”

"Then the girls of the Lu clan dare to go, why can't the sisters go?"

The Zhao family on the side was moved when he heard this, and asked, "Then the girl of the Lu family really went to study in the Lu family's school?" ”

"No, not only the girls of the Lu family went, but I heard that the Shi family also sent a few girls over, and they also want to study in the Lu family."

Lin Qingwan lowered her head and sipped tea, her mind turned sharply, and she pulled out the relationship charts of the characters that Lin Jiang listed for her and looked for them for a long time, then she remembered for a moment, looked up and asked, "Is Mr. Shi that Mingjie said not Mr. Lu's wife?" ”

"It's her," Mrs. Shang turned her head and explained to her, "You don't know, something happened to the Shi family a few years ago, and Mrs. Lu had a cousin who married into the Boling Cui family, but for some reason, that Mrs. Shi left a letter of resignation to the Cui family and returned to her parents' house with a pair of children." ”

The people in the room were dumbfounded, and Mrs. Shang said even more excitedly when she saw it: "It's okay, Zuo is just a farce between husband and wife, which couple doesn't quarrel?" Who knew that when the Cui family came to pick up people, the Shi family beat people out, and several brothers of the Shi family went to Cui's house, and they didn't know how to talk about it, but they really divorced. A pair of children were also divided into two, the Cui family got a boy, and Mrs. Shi took away her daughter, but now that a pair of children have followed Mrs. Shi, the Cui family will send money to raise them every month. ”

"It's almost the New Year when things come out, at the beginning of this year, Mrs. Shi came to Mrs. Lu with a pair of children, the Shi family is a historian, not to mention talent, so the Lu family asked Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Lu to teach the girls in the clan together, it is estimated that the two of them thought of teaching female students in another place in the Lu family, not only to teach their own girls, but also to girls from other families, as long as they can pass the exam, they can also go to school." Old Madam Shang sighed: "It's just that Mrs. Shi has a bad reputation......

Lin Qingwan smiled faintly: "It's just harmony, why is it not good?" A thief steals something, but it turns out that the person who has a bad reputation is the one who stole it? There is no such thing in the world. ”

Old Madam Shang was suddenly a little embarrassed.

Zhao asked his son, "Besides the girls of the Lu family and the Shi family, who else decided to send it?" ”

"There are a lot of people, when I came back, I heard Brother Zhou say that his family would also send his sisters."

"The Zhou family, the Jiangdu Zhou family, or the Zhou Thorn historian?"

"Naturally, it's the Zhou family in Jiangdu," Shang Mingjie laughed, "Mother, how can Zhou Tingshi have a daughter?" ”

The five major families in the south of the Yangtze River, Lin Shangzhou, Zhao Xie, unfortunately, the Zhou family happens to be ranked before the Zhao family, and what is even more unfortunate is that the Zhou family and the Zhao family are both from Jiangdu, but one is in the north of the city and the other is in the south of the city.

But one mountain can't tolerate two tigers, not to mention that these are still two families?

Although they have made good friends and even married in-laws, in fact, the relationship between the two families is really not good, if the Zhou family has sent people over, then the Zhao family cannot lag behind.

What's more, there are many young talents in the Lu family, not to mention the Shang family, and I don't know how much higher than the Lin family.

Zhao glanced at his daughter Danzhu, and couldn't help but persuade Mrs. Shang in a low voice, "Old lady, Aunt Lin is right, since the Cui family can only reconcile, instead of leaving Mrs. Shi, it is obvious that they are at fault for that matter, and in this case, Mrs. Shi's character is not flawed, but it is more intense." But Mrs. Lu is notoriously soft, and she is both rigid and soft. ”

"In this world, if you want to talk about reading, except for the Lu Cui family, there is only the Shi family," Zhao said in a low voice: "Old lady, although the master invited by the family is good, it is not as good as the two Shi sisters." ”

Old Madam Shang kept her face calm and did not speak, she was still not very happy with the children going out to study.

Lin Qingwan put down the teacup and waved to a few girls who were looking at this side: "You guys go down to play first, let's talk." ”

Danzhu looked at Lin Qingwan, who was no different from them by three years, and silently got up and retreated.

Not to mention Danlan, she is the same age as Lin Qingwan, but she is only a few months younger, and looking at this "adult" at this time, she can only swallow her words silently.

The girls all went down, and the people in the house obediently retreated, except for their respective henchmen, there were only three left.

Zhao glanced at Lin Qingwan silently, in fact, she also wanted Lin Qingwan to retreat, and some private words were not good to say in front of her.

Lin Qingwan didn't seem to see her eyes, raised her head and smiled at Old Madam Shang: "Old lady, I want to go and see the Lu family, if it's really good, I plan to send Yubin over." ”

Old Madam Shang frowned, "There are so many male students there......"

"If the lord of the Ying County is still at the border to protect the family and defend the country, old lady, the Lu family style is there, you should trust them more."

Old Madam Shang was silent.

Lin Qingwan got up and said, "I'll go see a few children." ”

Let's leave their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to talk privately.

Bai Feng couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Grandma, will Old Madam Shang agree?" ”

"Second Lady Shang will convince her."

"You can call the shots, so why bother to explain to her?" Bai Feng was very unhappy with Mrs. Shang's face to her girl.

After all, she is Yubin's grandmother, and it is naturally better to have her consent, and the most important thing is that if the three girls of the Shang family can also go to school, then Yubin will have a companion in the school. But it's too early to say this, let's go back and go to Qingfeng Mountain to take a look at this Lu family. ”

And in the main house, Zhao was persuading Mrs. Shang in a low voice, "Old lady, the girls are not young, and it is the time to say kiss, but in the past few years, the master has been in Beijing, we are in Suzhou, and we can't get in touch with the connections in Beijing, and there are few contacts in Suzhou, so we can't let the children delay." This time is an opportunity, not to mention, studying with the girls of the Lu Shi clan is also a personal connection, isn't it? ”

Mrs. Shang was moved, and Zhao persisted in persuasion when she saw it: "There is still one generation of our family's title, and it is not certain whether the next generation can successfully inherit the title. Otherwise, just the lord and my eldest brother, I'm afraid of ......"

Old Madam Shang sighed and said, "Then let a few children prepare for it, the exam must be passed." ”

Zhao said happily: "Don't worry, I will urge them to study hard." If the old lady is not at ease, it is better to let Mingjie also go to the Lu family to learn, then the house school is not as good as the Lu family. ”

Old Madam Shang said uncomfortably: "When I sent Mingjie to the mansion, the reputation of the Lu family was not yet obvious...... Forget it, forget it, if you have a heart, then it's up to you, but I heard that the Lu family study exam is very strict, and Mingjie has to be careful. ”

Lin Qingwan found them in the garden, Shang Mingjie was telling them about the Lu family's school, Lin Qingwan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mingjie, I remember that you are studying in Fuxue, why are you so familiar with the Lu family's school?" ”

Shang Mingjie said with a big grin: "Grandmother once wanted to send me to the Lu family to study, and several of my friends are in the Lu family, so I know it clearly." ”

"If you want to go, why don't you go?"

Shang Mingjie smiled, scratched his head and said: "Grandmother found the paper of the Lu family to make for me, but I didn't do it well, and my grandmother probably thought that I had little chance of being admitted, so she didn't send me to school, and sent me to the house." ”

The sisters couldn't help but laugh out loud, "I'm embarrassed to say that I'm not good at learning, I don't want to go back to reading soon, but I can't play with us anymore." ”
