Chapter 131 The feeling of being cherished

The Salesian's House is now close to Yejia Village, so Lu Chengze would go to visit it from time to time. In addition, His Majesty the Emperor would send secret decrees from time to time, and the surrounding countries would also send messages from time to time. In fact, Lu Chengze hasn't been at home many days recently.

"No matter how busy you are, you have to live, and no matter how busy you are, you have to accompany my little daughter-in-law."

What's the point of life if you ignore the most important people around you because of national affairs and the common people in the world?
I have done wrong in my previous life, and I will never repeat the same mistakes in this life!
As Lu Chengze said, he gathered Ye Zhen's fingers into a ball, put it into his mouth, and bit it lightly, as if he couldn't put it down.

Ye Zhen couldn't laugh or cry at this childish action, she struggled a bit but didn't get rid of it, so she let him go.

Lu Chengze pulled her into his arms, and didn't make any further movements. He just surrounded her, as if announcing his sovereignty, and prevented her from running away. Zhen put one in her mouth.

Ye Zhen also remembered that she put some sweet wine made yesterday in the refrigerator, so she took out an ice bowl of sweet wine and asked Lu Chengze to use a spoon to scrape it into a smoothie, and then you and I would eat it bit by bit.

The two of them only ate one bowl, but Lu Chengze refused to let them eat, saying that it was cold in late autumn, and he was afraid that his stomach would not be able to bear it.

Ye Zhen had no choice but to eat the warm milk glutinous rice balls prepared by Liu Ye.

From Yejia Village to Fucheng, it would take two days at the fastest by carriage.On the night of the first day, the guard in charge of contacting in front booked an inn. After the carriage slipped into the inn, the students all lined up to get the room number from the guard in charge of booking.

The rules of Hongye Academy: All the students of the Academy must dress in a uniform when they act in groups. The short clothes of blue muslin are crisp and comfortable.

So when dozens of students, no matter rich or poor, high or low, were all wearing blue muslin bunt clothes and lined up to get their room number, the shopkeeper and the staff of the inn were dumbfounded!

What is even more eye-catching is the four characters embroidered on the back of the bunt clothes: "Hongye Academy".There is also a red leaf next to it.

There was once a student from a wealthy family who asked if he could exchange the bunt clothes for long ones?
After all, they are all scholars, so wearing a long gown is obviously more refined and bookish.

Ye Zhen disagreed.

Ye Zhen's statement is: You can only change into long gowns when you pass the examination as a scholar.

Not even a scholar, what kind of scholar?Just because you know two words?

So I used a piece of fine cloth to make short clothes, which was convenient for reading, going up the mountain, and going down the field.

Thanks to the militarized management of boarding students in Hongye Academy.

Those sons-in-law who usually pay attention to thieves at home are now used to living with others, and no one dislikes others grinding their teeth and snoring anymore.

The inn clerk whispered to the shopkeeper: "I've seen those rushing for the exam, but I've never seen so many people rushing for the exam at the same time in an academy!"

Yes, students from colleges, county schools, and village schools of the Dai Viet Dynasty have always taken care of their own exams. This kind of large-scale team travels to rush for the exams, which is unprecedented!
Coupled with the style of uniform dress and uniform actions, it makes people feel that Hongye Academy has strict rules and regulations.

The man looked at the red leaves and characters on the back of the clothes, and knew that it was from Hongye Academy, he was also speechless: "No wonder Hongye Academy admits [-] students a year! Look at this style, how can the other academies compare?" ?”

The shopkeeper also nodded again and again: "Yes! Going back and asking, does Hongye Academy still accept students? If so, I will send my two children there too..."

When it was time for dinner, Ye Zhen was surprised to find that there was an extra meat dish on each table, which was not ordered before, so she curiously asked the shopkeeper to ask.

The shopkeeper didn't expect that the leader of the Red Leaf Academy was actually a girl who was only eleven or twelve years old.

But after all, I am used to seeing people. Since they can manage the entire Hongye Academy's students taking the exam at such an age, there is a reason for it, and the shopkeeper dare not take it lightly.

"I gave this meat dish to you all. I want the girl to know that besides admiration, I also have a little selfishness in doing this." The shopkeeper smiled and bowed.

Ye Zhen asked curiously: "What selfishness?"

"Hongye Academy is well-known throughout Lingnan. It is also a blessing for me to be able to stay in my inn today. I want to discuss it with the girl."

"What negotiation?"

"This time, so many students from Hongye Academy are going to take the exam. After a few days, they will be admitted to many scholars. In the future, the students and nobles of your academy will go to Guilin County and the capital to take the exam. Shop, can you allow the shop to advertise, so that passing merchants and candidates know that every time the candidates of Hongye Academy go to the exam, they live here?"

Ye Zhen's eyes lit up: This shopkeeper is fine!Have eyesight!Know how to take advantage of the situation and be able to link resources, such a business mind is really not something ordinary people can have!
Ye Zhen became interested: "Then what can I get from Hongye Academy?"

The shopkeeper also smiled: "Today's meals and accommodation expenses will be waived for you. In the future, every time your college goes to the exam collectively, as long as you live with us, you will be waived the accommodation expenses and two meals in the morning and one evening." Yes! What do you think?"

Ye Zhen couldn't help scrutinizing the smiling shopkeeper seriously: he looked middle-aged in age, and he smiled kindly, obviously he is a person who is very good at doing business.

Ye Zhen couldn't help being curious, and pointed to this small inn: "May I ask, the shopkeeper is so good at doing business, why is it still in such a situation?"

The shopkeeper hesitated for two seconds, and then told the truth: "So that the nobleman knows: this is not a secret at all. My wife has been ill for a long time, and she has been sent to the hospital for every money she makes. There are also two children who are studying, yes. So it didn’t grow the business.”

Ye Zhen understands: People with chronic illness at home, no matter how much money they can make, it is still not enough!What's more, there are two children who need to study?
After thinking about it, she nodded and agreed to the shopkeeper's request first. The shopkeeper immediately smiled and left gratefully.

When Ye Zhen followed Lu Chengze back to the room and the two of them were sitting at the table drinking tea, Lu Chengze called Lu Gang in and asked Lu Gang to report the situation he had just investigated to Ye Zhen.

It turned out that the innkeeper was called Chen Bingyuan. His wife had been sick and bedridden for seven or eight years, and his two sons were studying. The family spent a lot of money. This inn was his ancestral property, and Chen Bingyuan had been guarding the inn to live.

Because he knows how to be a man and does business reasonably, so the business has been good.

It's just that the amount of money earned is not enough to fill the three expensive holes in the house, so until now, the inn has remained the same size.

This Chen Bingyuan is also a long-term lover. His wife has been bedridden for seven or eight years. Many people persuade him to take a concubine. Even if it is to take care of his wife, he is not happy to have help.The lady has been taken care of by the nanny he invited to take care of with him all these years.

This character is quite good.
