Inside the Pear Fragrance Courtyard, there was laughter. Ever since they learned of this news, the maids and old women had smiles on their faces.
Jia Lian's hearty laughter came from outside,""Brother Huan, I came to see you before you went to the directorate.”
Jia Lian was knowledgeable and knew that it was not so easy to go to the Imperial College, so he came over to warn Jia Huan.
Caiyun hurriedly served tea to Jia Lian. Jia Lian took a sip and frowned slightly. This Jia Huan was too stingy. He got so much silver and still used this kind of tea.
Jia Huan smiled and said,"Don't be disgusted, Second Brother Lian." In a few days, I'll exchange for some good tea leaves.”
Jia Lian waved his hand and said,"You don't have to worry about this." After the rain, I'll get some for you. In the future, don't bring these out to make a fool of yourself. Don't you find it embarrassing?"
Of course, Jia Huan knew what Jia Lian meant. It was just that he had just recently received so much money, so he couldn't expose it in front of others all at once. He had to take it slow.
After drinking the tea in two or three mouthfuls, it was considered to have quenched his thirst. Jia Lian picked up a piece of chestnut cake. The taste was not bad. After eating, Jia Lian said,"Your sister-in-law misses you." She asked me to bring you a few spring clothes."
After saying that, he handed the small bag behind him to Jia Huan. Before Jia Huan could thank him, Jia Lian continued,"It's great to be able to go to the directorate. However, the Imperial College was not like the ordinary county schools, state schools, and government schools. It was not easy to get out after entering. You have to prepare everything in advance.”
"Aren't there a lot of supervisors who can come and go freely?" Jia Huan asked curiously. I even heard that there were students staying overnight at the Qinhuai River.”This was true. There were many old people in the county school, and they often went to the Qinhuai River, so they would meet these students.
Jia Lian smiled and said,"Those prison students spent money to get in and just dawdle there." You're different from them. Once you go in, it'll be very difficult for you to come out!”
Jia Huan was speechless. He thought that everyone was the same. He did not expect that he would actually receive special treatment.
Jia Lian gave Jia Huan some instructions before leaving.
Since he was going to the directorate, he had to explain to the county school. He couldn't just leave.
On the second day of the second month, the dragon raised its head. The county school could be considered to have started. Jia Huan also rushed to the county school. He wanted to find the overseer to explain this matter as soon as possible.
Just as she turned the corner, she saw Bai Chuan.
"How unlucky!" The two of them sighed at the same time.
Jia Huan wanted to go around this guy, but Bai Chuan's voice rang out,""I heard that some people are going to the Imperial College to be imprisoned. I wonder how much money they spent.”
Jia Huan could not help but be furious. This dog's mouth could not spit out ivory.
A few students who were on good terms with Bai Chuan were laughing in low voices, cooperating with Bai Chuan's performance. Jia Huan raised his head and said," If Student Bai is envious, I can help. It's not much. I only need five hundred taels of silver to send you to the directorate!"”
"Five hundred taels?" Bai Chuan sneered. You really dare to speak!"
"What?" Jia Huan asked. Too much? Then study hard and enter with your own abilities!”
Bai Chuan sneered." It's just that you have a good teacher. You think you can get into the directorate with your own abilities?"”
Jia Huan smiled and suddenly said lightly,"Student Bai, I wonder if you have read the essay I posted in front of the school gate? And did the grandmaster complain? I support you. You can pull out a black sheep like me from the group of scholars. I'm sure all the students will support you! This is something that everyone hopes for, so I hope that Student Bai won't reject it.”
Bai Chuan glared at Jia Huan and quickly left. How could he dare to tear down Jia Huan's article? Wasn't this clearly going against the great grandmaster? How could he have a good ending!
He could tell that as long as he argued with Jia Huan, this guy would definitely make him tear down the article at the entrance of the academy. As long as he did not dare to go, then Jia Huan would naturally be in an invincible position.
"Brother Bai, why bother with this kind of silkpants?" A student beside him said.”
The others also echoed,"That's right! It was only after the new year, so there was no need to seek trouble.”
Bai Chuan flicked his sleeve and left with his head held high as if he was disdainful.
Jia Huan, who was behind him, continued,"Student Bai, I don't know when I'll be back." Don't wait for me to come back, and you still don't dare to tear down my article! Don't disappoint everyone!"
Bai Chuan almost fell down as he thought to himself," This dog's mouth couldn't spit out ivory!
After entering the county school, Jia Huan found Instructor Meng in the side room. When Instructor Meng saw Jia Huan's visit, he smiled and said,"Is Jia Sheng going to the directorate? Sir Qian has already informed the county school, Jia Sheng can go by himself.”
"Students always have to come and talk to you." Leaving without saying goodbye is not something we should do."
Overseer Meng nodded. This Jia Huan was also very polite, so he continued,"It's fine. You should go home and prepare first. If you can go to the Imperial College to study, our county's school is also honored, hehehe.”
Jia Huan bade farewell and left. Instructor Meng looked at Jia Huan's back as he left and thought it was a pity. If such a good seedling was placed in the county school, it was not impossible for him to pass the National Higher Education Entrance Examination. It was just a pity for this teacher-student relationship.
After returning home, Jia Huan began to pack his luggage. Although winter was over, the weather was still cold. Caiyun insisted that Jia Huan bring two sets of clothes.
"Although spring is coming, this cold spring is also very powerful. Third Master should be careful.”Then, he stuffed a few layers of clothes into the bag and said,"This is something warmer to wear. Third Master, you must pay more attention to it.”
Jia Huan watched as Caiyun packed up one parcel after another for him and quickly stopped her,"You've already moved a few houses. You can't bring all of them over. Your Third Master is not there to enjoy life.”
"But it's not to suffer." Bring them all!"
"That's enough," Jia Huan said.”
The little girl's voice sounded from outside.""Sister Siqi, you're here too.”
"Yes!" Si Qi's voice sounded. My lady asked me to deliver something to Third Young Master.”
Caiyun opened the curtain and Si Qi flashed in. She waved her hand and said,"Third Master, my lady knew that you were going to study at the directorate, so she especially rushed out her shoes and socks. It's not much. You can use it first."
Jia Huan opened it and took a look. The stitches were very fine, which showed that he had put in a lot of effort.
"Don't let Second Older Sister do it in the future. It's a waste of your eyes.”Now that there wasn't any machinery, this kind of work was laborious and hurt the eyes. Jia Huan couldn't bear to let Yingchun do it again.
Si Qi smiled,"How can we let Young Lady do it alone? We're also helping." Don't worry, Third Master. Just study hard.”
After Si Qi left, Jia Huan's luggage was almost packed. However, he still had to bid farewell to Madam Wang. After all, a parent was a parent. It was not advisable to leave without saying goodbye.
When they arrived at Rongxi Hall, they found Grandmother Jia and Madam Wang there. Aunt Xue was chatting with them.
Hupo had seen Jia Huan early and whispered a few words into Grandmother Jia's ear.
"Is there something urgent, Old Madam?" Aunt Xue asked.”The meaning was very clear. If I can't listen, I'll take my leave first.
"It's nothing urgent," Grandmother Jia said with a smile. It was Brother Huan. He was going to study at the directorate and had specially come to say goodbye.”Then he said to Amber,"Let Brother Huan in."”
Hupo therefore went outside to pass on the message,"Third Young Master, the old lady is inviting you in."”
When Jia Huan arrived at Rongxi Hall, he knelt on the ground and said,"Ancestor, Mother. School is about to start and I'm going to the directorate, so I came to report.”
Madam Wang clenched the prayer beads in her hand involuntarily. She controlled her voice and said as gently as possible,"When are you leaving?"
Jia Huan replied,"We're leaving early tomorrow morning."”
"When you arrive at the directorate, you must listen to Mister." Madam Wang nodded. If you don't learn well in there, your father won't forgive you when he comes back!”
"I'll remember it," Jia Huan answered honestly.”
"I have nothing else to say," said Madam Wang.”"Mother, do you have anything to say?" she asked.”
"I'm just an old woman, what else can I say?" Grandmother Jia said with a smile. Just study hard."
Madam Wang said to Jia Huan,"Go." Study hard."
Jia Huan respectfully bade farewell and left.
