Happy Little Scholar

Kyoto has been discussing a hot topic these days, and the scope of discussion is very wide. Even poor farmers who usually don’t care much about state affairs often come to the city to inquire about the construction of the academy. They heard that after the academy is built, children from poor families can study for free. Their child will be seven years old next year. Will he be able to study in the academy in the future...

Farmers who have to worry about the next meal after the last one should be most concerned about the problem of food. They have never cared about the government. No matter what the upper level does, they can have enough food and survive in this world. This is the first thing they think about when they open their eyes every day.

However, this time, they can’t help but care.

If the princess succeeds in what she is doing, their children will not have to repeat the life of their parents. They can go to the academy to study and become scholars. In the future, they can become the top scholar and become a high-ranking official, which will bring honor to their ancestors and the family...

In their view, scholars want to become the top scholar and become a high-ranking official. Although Wu Xiucai at the head of the village has not yet become a top scholar, everyone in the village who sees him must respectfully call him "Mr. Xiucai".

In short, no matter what your status was before, as long as you have studied, everything will be different.

This is a great joyous event. Her Royal Highness Princess has done good things for them again. First, she summoned her daughter to let the whole family live a life of having enough food to eat. Now, she lets their son have books to read. They don’t know how much the current emperor has done for them, but Her Royal Highness Princess is really speaking for these poor people...

Building a school requires money. Her Royal Highness Princess ran around to raise money for them, but those rich officials seemed unwilling. It seemed that the construction of the school could not go on...

This is what they learned after entering the city.

"He, their money, isn't it all the fat of the people? If they really want to do things for the people, one by one, they have become stingy!" An old farmer leaned on a cane and kept knocking on the ground, his face full of resentment.

"This is the children's opportunity. They, they can't be like us." Someone gritted his teeth and said, "They must study. Only by studying can they have a promising future..."

One person shook his head and sighed, "Alas..., they are all ruthless. The one who really cares about the poor people is still the Princess..."

A carriage slowly passed through the street. After these days, the old man driving the carriage has understood that the wide road is always congested. In order not to waste time, they have to bypass it and take another smooth path.

Then stop at the entrance of an alley, sometimes only for a quarter of an hour, sometimes for half an hour.

Lao Fang and the sloppy old man sat on both sides of the carriage, thinking about what they had just heard on the street, lifted the curtain and said to Li Yi: "Son-in-law, these officials don't even pay this little money, they are so stingy!"

Li Yi waved his hand and said: "Don't say that, other people's money is not blown by the wind, and they don't want it to be blown away by the wind. It is their freedom to donate money or not, and we have no right to control it. Don't use moral kidnapping..."

Lao Fang nodded as if he understood. Although he didn't know what moral kidnapping meant, he knew that his silver was picked up from the sand, delivered to his door by others, and cheated from Qi State------it seemed that it was not as convenient as the wind blowing, and he didn't want to give it to others for nothing.

Li Yi jumped off the carriage and walked into the alley.

The sloppy old man habitually threw a candy in his mouth and looked in a certain direction, "How long will he be like this?"

"Soon." Lao Fang took a candy from the sloppy old man and muttered.

The sloppy old man glanced at him, put the remaining candy back into his arms, and asked, "What's coming soon?"

Old Fang glanced at him and said, "It's coming soon."

These days, when the son-in-law passed by here, the expression on his face was completely different from before. He had carefully observed for many days and could naturally see some subtle emotions.

The sloppy old man seemed to understand something and asked, "Who do you think he likes more, your young lady or the girl here?"

Old Fang looked at him in surprise. He didn't expect that this old guy who behaved strangely was so stuffy and would be interested in such things?

"There is no comparison." Old Fang shook his head and said, "The son-in-law likes the young lady because she is the young lady, not someone else. He likes Miss Zeng just because he likes her."

"What do you mean?" The sloppy old man was stunned for a moment, pondered for a while, but still didn't understand. Then, as if he remembered something, he looked at him with some sarcasm: "Are you talking about yourself?"

Old Fang glanced at him: "What does it have to do with me?"

"Don't think I don't know that you have a lover in the Qun Yuyuan. Why didn't you go to find him today?"

Old Fang's face changed suddenly, He said angrily: "You followed me!"

The sloppy old man looked at him with disdain, "Who doesn't know your little troubles?"

"Troubles?" Lao Fang was not angry anymore, "Looking at you, I'm afraid you have never been liked by anyone, right?"

This sentence seemed to touch the sloppy old man's reverse scale, and he immediately glared at Lao Fang, "What, why don't you go to Wuguo to ask around? When I was young, I was also considered to be a romantic man, and many women fell in love with me. If I hadn't been obsessed with martial arts..."

"So you never got married in your life?" Lao Fang looked at him with a smile.

The sloppy old man stopped talking and squinted his eyes at him. If he hadn't been cultivating himself these days, he would have slapped him down long ago.

However, he couldn't slap this guy in front of him casually. He didn't care about it. The sloppy old man thought about it and continued the question just now: "What if your second daughter is included?"

"Second daughter?"

This question was a bit complicated. Old Fang was stunned and looked up at the sky. He felt that the sun was a bit dazzling today.

...

Li Yi sat at the stone table, took a sip of tea, and asked: "The Cui family's ready-made clothing shop is closed, right?"

Zeng Zuimo looked up at him and nodded slightly.

These days, she also heard some news that the Cui family lost a lot of money and mortgaged many shops in Kyoto, including those ready-made clothing shops, which have not been open for a long time.

And these days, they have also made some adjustments to their strategies. Even if there are counterfeits, there are corresponding countermeasures.

"I heard that the princess encountered some obstacles in her preparation for the construction of the academy?"

Li Yi thought she would ask about the closure of the Cui family's clothing store. He didn't know why she suddenly brought it up. He shook his head and said, "Those are just appearances. Everything is planned."

Zeng Zuimo looked at him and asked, "Did you plan it?"

"Of course, I didn't expect them to donate much silver. The less they donate, the better. They are laughing at the princess now, but they won't be able to laugh in a few days."

After Li Yi finished speaking, he saw her lower her head and didn't speak. After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked, "Are you jealous?"

"Hehe, the lady is jealous..." Xiao Cui stood behind and said with a chuckle.

Since she saw the two people rolling around on the bed that day, she could say some things in front of them.

Two people were on the bed, one on top of the other. According to common sense, during the time when she couldn't see them, they should have been rolling around.

"Xiao Cui, shut up!" Zeng Zuimo glanced at Xiao Cui with shame and anger, stood up, and hurried to the studio.

Li Yi stood up and tapped Xiao Cui on the head, "How can you say that about your own daughter? You are so disrespectful..."

Xiao Cui covered her head, feeling aggrieved, thinking that you two are just looking for a reason to be in the same room, and you are pretending to be so similar...

Li Yi walked into the studio and saw that she was already sitting at the table. He explained, "That is really just an appearance. If they don't donate now, they will donate in the future. They have to beg to come and donate..."

"Don't say it." Zeng Zuimo raised his head and said hurriedly, "Why are you telling me this? What if others hear it and ruin your big plan..."

"We are one family, what are you afraid of?" Li Yi looked at her and said, "But you really can't tell other people these words, otherwise the consequences will be very serious, and you can't tell that Minister Zeng..."

"I won't tell him." Zeng Zuimo said firmly, then looked up at him and asked, "What will be the consequences?"

Li Yi thought for a while and said, "I will be embarrassed, and the princess will also lose face. She will be laughed at by many people, and most importantly, she will lose a lot of silver."

Zeng Zuimo knew the meaning of silver to him. If he said a lot of silver, it would really be a lot.

Thinking of him telling her such an important thing, she couldn't help but feel a little warm in her heart.

"How about it, I told you such an important thing, are you very touched?" Li Yi walked over, looked at her with a smile, opened his arms, and asked, "Are you so touched that you want a warm hug?"

The warmth soon disappeared, and Zeng Zuimo grabbed a pillow from the bed and threw it over.

"Big pervert!"

This word was learned from Yongning a long time ago.

Yongning said that those who like to take advantage of girls are all perverts.
