Imperial College Kindergarten

Chapter 25: Drive out of the Imperial Academy

"You are all parents. For the sake of your children, how can you tolerate someone like Liu Xueting in the Imperial College?"

"Wouldn't this spoil the child?"

"Yes, I heard that she is a fake daughter, that's all. I just heard that her life experience is so miserable!"

"Yes, I have also heard that the biological mother had an affair with someone and gave birth to her. How can such a person be in the Imperial College?"

"The Imperial College is a place where children are taught. Doesn't the presence of such people taint the Imperial College?"

"Hey, it seems you can't say that." Someone retorted, "A person's origin is not something he can choose, and Assistant Professor Liu didn't do anything wrong."

"I also feel that, not to mention that Assistant Teacher Liu has done nothing at all, how can an unfounded crime be imposed on her?"

But soon, this opposition was drowned out by a louder crusade.

"What do you mean? You don't have children studying there. Of course it won't hurt to stand here and talk. Her life experience has been spread to everyone, and she has no good reputation at all!"

"That's right, I heard that those big families secretly kicked Liu Xueting out of the bride's list!"

"It's not surprising. Who in a more sophisticated family would marry a woman whose biological mother was pregnant before wedlock and whose biological father is unknown?"

"So, if our children are in the Imperial College with her, won't they be affected by her?"

"It has already had an impact! I heard that the young lady from the second room of Shilang Li's house had her engagement broken off just now!"

"Oh! So fast? God, what about my child? I don't want her to have a bad reputation. I spend so much money a year to send her to the Imperial College because the Imperial College is the best college in the Great Xia Dynasty. If you continue reading and have a bad reputation, how will she get married in the future?”

"Who says otherwise? Which woman who can graduate from the Imperial College has not married into the best family? It's a pity. If your reputation is bad, then your future marriages will be in doubt. Big families are the most prestigious!"

"Anyway, I don't dare to let my child be in the Imperial College with Liu Xueting again!"

"Yes, please ask the Imperial College to fire Liu Xueting!"

"Please ask the Imperial College to fire Liu Xueting!"

One person spoke up, and everyone started shouting as the occasion was exaggerated.

Liu Xueting stood at the gate of the Imperial College, listening to the people outside criticizing word by word, and for some reason, he felt like laughing.

This counterattack came faster than she imagined.

Xue Shengda snorted loudly and signaled his assistant to ask for the principal. Then he turned to look at Liu Xueting. Seeing that she was still holding steady, he walked out first.

Liu Xueting took a few deep breaths and strode out following Deputy Principal Xue.

Zuo Ting's eyes flashed. She didn't expect the girl to be so well prepared. She wanted to see how the Imperial Academy could protect Liu Xueting when public opinion was like this!

After seeing someone coming out of the Imperial Academy, those who were hiding in the crowd and agitating for public opinion looked at each other and left quietly.

"Look, someone is out!"

"Finally, we're out! If we don't come out, we'll have to wait here, and we'll have to ask the Imperial Academy for an explanation!"

"That's right, how can someone like Liu Xueting still stay in the Imperial College?"

"Yes, fire her!"

Xue Shengda stood on the steps, raised his hand and made a downward movement, and then said in a deep voice: "Everyone, please listen to me." The crowd gradually became quiet.

"The recruitment of our Imperial College staff has gone through strict assessments. Fairness, impartiality, and openness, and both knowledge and character are indispensable. Recruitment and appointment are subject to strict assessments. If you fail the assessment, appropriate measures will be taken."

"As Assistant Liu Xueting has passed the Imperial Academy's assessment, it means that she meets the standards. As for whether she can continue to be competent in the future, it will depend on whether she can pass the annual assessment."

"Parents, please rest assured that our Imperial College will strictly follow the assessment standards for personnel recruitment and appointment, and there will be no unsuitable personnel who will continue to teach in the Imperial College."

"After all that, you just want to protect Liu Xueting!"

"Yes, we don't know what those assessments you are talking about are. We only know that a person with a terrible reputation like Liu Xueting is not suitable to stay in the Imperial College!"

"That's right! What if we lead our children into trouble?"

Even though he told himself that he didn't care, when Liu Xueting actually faced these people, his heart still stirred.

"Why, does Vice Principal Xue think that the demands of these ordinary people are not qualified and that parents like us need to come forward?"

When everyone heard the people coming from behind, they all made way.

Someone whispered: "This is Mrs. Zhao Yun from the family of the Minister of Rites."

"I wonder if my identity is enough?" Zhao Yun was followed by several ladies who were also dressed in rich and noble clothes. She passed through the crowd and looked at Xue Shengda with a smile.

Finally, he glanced at Liu Xueting and his smile faded.

Xue Shengda frowned tightly, it was her again!
It was Zhao Yun who came to the Imperial College earlier and said that the current courses taught by the Imperial College were not suitable for women, and women should not be in the same class as men, etc., which annoyed them very much.

Now let’s get involved again!Why didn’t this old season come out for so long?

The ladies behind Zhao Yun also spoke at this time: "That's right, a woman with such a background will not be able to marry into a good family!"

"We all have daughters. If our daughters have been with Liu Xueting for a long time, their reputation will be affected. Without a good reputation, how can they get married?"

"Yes, we don't have any objections to Liu Xueting, she is so pitiful, but she is indeed not suitable to stay in the Imperial College!"

Immediately afterwards, more and more carriages stopped outside the crowd. They seemed to be the matrons of the house. Without exception, they all stood behind Zhao Yun and gave him silent support.

"There are so many people. It seems that Liu Qingyan really doesn't want to kill me!" Liu Xueting was still in the mood to complain to 303 at this time.

But 303 said "Hey": "Host, there are parents from all classes, but there are no parents from the Golden Sun class! Is this a coincidence?"

Liu Xueting's breathing stagnated, and he couldn't explain what his mood was now.

"Host, how are you going to turn the situation around? Although you have gained a lot of money now, but... it's not good for you as the real host!"

Liu Xueting saluted Xue Shengda, and after Xue Shengda nodded, he walked to the front.

"Everyone, may I ask a few questions?"

“Why is a woman’s value measured by how well she marries?”

"I issued a shilling to the founding queen. Women can also enter the hall, seek imperial examinations, serve as officials, and do business. These are all places where women's value can be demonstrated."

"When did marriage become the only criterion? Yes, of course a woman can marry well. When she meets a lover who is in love with her, the marriage will be a happy one and the whole family will be happy. But it does not mean that, Apart from marriage, there is no other option. Not only can she be a certain wife, she can also be a certain teaching assistant, a certain doctor, a certain shopkeeper, or a certain adult!"
