Chapter 06: The Monk (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation Votes, Thank You)

didn't go to see Shen Aotian, the patriarch of the Shen family, Shen Ziyan took Lingxi and went directly back to the main hall of the courtyard where the second room was located.

Also following were Shen Aofeng, Shen Yun'er and Steward Liu.

"Third sister, after you leave, there will be no one living in the courtyard of the second room. Over the years, nothing has been touched here, except for the occasional person to clean it. By the way, I specially asked people to take care of your boudoir back then, and the blankets, quilts, and tea sets inside are replaced every year and put them in......"

Shen Aofeng smiled shyly rarely, and then tears flashed in his eyes.

"I want to ...... Third sister, you may come back when. So you can go back to your room at any time!"

Trying to restrain his emotions, Shen Aofeng squeezed out another smile.

"I just didn't expect that this wait would be twenty-three years...... But now it's okay, third sister, you're finally back. It's good to be back...... It's good to be back...... In the future, I will live in Shen Mansion with Lingxi's nephew with peace of mind. I see that Lingxi's nephew has also reached the age when he should enter school, so he must not delay the cultivation of the next generation!"

Looking at the true feelings of her fourth brother, Shen Ziyan suddenly felt that her decision seemed a little selfish, and a trace of guilt surged inexplicably in her heart.

"Hmm...... Sister knows you, and she has always known it! Forgive me, sister, I was a little forced at that time. ”

patted Shen Aofeng's back, and gently comforted his younger brother like when he was a child.

"I may not leave for the time being when I come back this time, and Lingxi will leave the matter of Lingxi going to study in the family school to the fourth brother. Xi'er, this kid has been traveling with me from south to north, and he has never had any foundation, so he has to invite the best teacher to teach and use the best resources of the Shen family. You understand......" Shen Ziyan said earnestly.

Shen Aofeng deliberately talked about his nephew's education, and he could see that Shen Lingxi, the child, did not have any cultivation foundation. I was afraid that the third sister would stay for a while and leave, but now I heard that the third sister wanted to find the best teacher for Lingxi, so I finally let go of my heart and smiled: "The third sister can rest assured, I must arrange these things properly." ”

Shen Ziyan talked to Shen Aofeng, and the little girl Shen Yun'er dragged her new brother Lingxi to run all over the yard.

Lingxi's current body is about to be seven years old, and it seems that there is no sense of disobedience with the five-year-old wild girl running around the yard.

But in Lingxi's own heart, he always feels that playing with this kind of little kid is really insulting his IQ.

"Brother Lingxi came to see Xiaoyu, Brother Lingxi has a beautiful stone here...... Brother Lingxi......"

The little girl was surprised to see anything, Shen Lingxi was called dizzy, and only kept mechanically agreeing.

"Well, okay...... Well, right...... Nice......"

Steward Liu temporarily summoned a lot of subordinates to clean all corners of the courtyard anew, and brought in a lot of furniture and furnishings.

Because of the arrival of Shen Ziyan's mother and son, the entire Shen Mansion was busy.

Lingxi has been very successful in pretending to be a boy so far, at least everyone in the Shen Mansion regards Lingxi as the young master of the second room.

Shen Ziyan didn't take the initiative to go to the big house to see her eldest brother Shen Aotian, and she still had the dissatisfaction of the big house uncle who forced her to marry back then, although the uncle had passed away.

If you can't see the people in the big house, Shen Ziyan doesn't mind dying forever.

It's just that at dinner, Dafang sent someone to invite, and it was Shen Aojun, the second brother of Dafang's family.

Shen Ziyan has not had much contact with the two elder brothers in Dafang since she was a child, and her relationship can be said to be very light. But now that they are all back, they still have to give some face to go to the banquet.

The atmosphere at the table was very weird, and everyone seemed to be deliberately avoiding the events of more than 20 years ago, as if Shen Ziyan had never left. The chats were all fake and empty greetings, and only occasionally the patriarch Shen Aotian would ask Shen Ziyan about his plans.

After all, it was the only bloodline in the second room of the Shen family, and Shen Aotian discussed it with his second brother Shen Aojun, and felt that it was not a big deal for Shen Ziyan to come back. However, after Shen Ziyan deliberately suppressed the cultivation, she only showed the early cultivation of the foundation building period with some disdain.

After all, the two brothers of the Shen family's big house had already successfully advanced to the cultivation of the Dan Period, especially the patriarch Shen Ao broke through the seventh layer of the Dan Stage a few years ago and entered the cultivation of the middle stage of the Dan Period.

There are many monks in the family like Shen Ziyan who are in the early stage of the foundation building period, and there is really nothing special to be happy about.

"Young Master...... Young Master Lingxi...... Rise and shine. Today is the day to go to the family primary school, and if you are late, you will be beaten by the master!"

The maid who served Lingxi was a son named Hu Tao, who was assigned to the second room to serve Master Lingxi, Hu Tao was shrewd and capable, and she was very conscientious.

Lingxi is not used to being served, not to mention that she has to dress up as a boy every day, how can she let the maid come to serve her and get up and change her clothes.

Hearing Hu Tao shouting outside the door, Lingxi had to turn over and get up to get dressed and wash.

"I don't know what this Shen family's primary school can teach, and I thought that when I became the young master of the Shen family, I would be able to stretch out my hands and eat to open my mouth, and live a relaxed and comfortable life. What Cheng thought, before dawn, he had to get up and go to the school......"

Shen Lingxi complained endlessly while getting dressed.

After eating breakfast, when I walked out of the courtyard where the second room was located, I saw that Shen Yun'er, a five-year-old girl in the third room, was also going to school.

The Shen family's primary school was built in a manor on the outskirts of Runan, and all the Shen family's children over the age of five theoretically had to go to school, in order to maximize the cultivation of the Shen family's talents. After all, the Li family and the Zhang family, the three major Xiuzhen families in Runan, have doubled their talents in recent years, but on the other hand, some talents in the next generation of the Shen family have withered.

Of course, the Shen Family Academy does not only accept the children of the Shen family, other families in Runan City can also send their own children to study, and the Shen family is a family that learns in the Shen family. It's just that this tuition fee is definitely not affordable for ordinary people.

The Shen Family School is divided into a primary school, a secondary school and a higher school.

Only after graduating from the higher education hall can you have the opportunity to form a team with the graduates of the Li family and the Zhang family, and the three-person team will be assigned some tasks, participate in some actual battles, and do some practical things for the security or business aspects of Runan County.

The three major Xiuzhen families in Runan City use this method to train the next generation of talents, and only the best three-person team every year can be qualified to participate in the national selection examination.

As long as you can win the fierce competition in the whole country, you can enter the class of scholars and doctors, and you can get the official positions appointed and dismissed by the imperial court.

Although the ultimate purpose of cultivating is to transform into a god, there are very few people who can really ascend to the gods from ancient times to the present. And these things that can soar have become myths in books, which only exist in legends. Therefore, most people cultivate in order to enter the scholar class.

The national policy of the founding monarch of the Feng Kingdom is to share the world with scholars, and the scholars here refer to monks.

Not everyone can be called a monk, only those who have passed the national examination can be honored as a monk.
