Chapter 229

Only then did Yingruo remember the meeting gift that Chu Qinghua had given earlier, and hurriedly beckoned Peanut to come forward.He dumped the contents of the purse on the desk, and it turned out to be two silver coins.

"Is this dismissing me as a three-year-old child?" Yingruo opened her mouth wide with disbelief on her face.

Not to mention that she is 13 years old now, even if she is really [-] years old, with the current status of the Chu family, they would not send her away with a silver coin when they went out as guests.

Besides, this is the first meeting ceremony.

Chu Qiaoruo burst out laughing.

Yingruo pointed to the purse in Shuoxue's hand, "Pour out that too. I want to see what good things she gave my sister."

Chu Qiaoruo nodded to Shuoxue.

The things were also dumped on the case table, but there was no emphasis on it, there were still two silver pegs.

Yingruo raised her forehead, "I have heard from my aunt that there is only a flower shelf left in the Marquis of Changlong's mansion, but it is not so poor, right? Why does it feel like sending off beggars?"

Mrs. Xie sighed, "This should be the instruction of your uncle, Mrs. Wang. Her idea should have stayed 15 years ago. At that time, our family was indeed not rich, Mrs. Wang came back once, and she is very kind to us. The poverty of her family should be fresh in her memory. Therefore, even after 15 years, she still thinks that two silver hands are a very important meeting gift for us."

Yingruo packed the silver boxes, and threw one to Peanut and the other to Shuoxue, "It's good to keep it, when the big lady has a child, I have to tip it back anyway."

Chu Qiaoruo pursed her lips and smiled, "You are narrow!"

Xie said: "As long as there are a few more mouths in the family, you can do whatever you want."

Being obedient and listening, Yingruo could tell that Mrs. Xie didn't have much enthusiasm for the people in Dafang, at most it was just a matter of saving face.

That's right, the two families of the Chu family separated early, one in the capital city and the other in the small Yulan County. What feelings.

The eldest aunt Wang is selfish and shallow-sighted. When the family was separated, she was very forceful and gave the Chu family a lot of debts to the second room.

For so many years, the eldest son of the Chu family has lived in the capital, despised everything, and wished he could lose his poor relative, the second son of the Chu family.Xie Shi is such an exquisite person, how can he not feel it?

Therefore, when Chu Qiaoruo wanted to go to the capital to join the Chu family's big house, the Xie family was so resistant.In fact, Dafang didn't regard their family as their relatives.

Today, Xie's acceptance of this group of people is really very generous.

"Don't Dafang know about our family's current situation?" Yingruo found it inconceivable.

The meeting ceremony prepared by Chu Qinghua obviously underestimated their second wife.But since she is known as a talented woman, she didn't have any sense of consciousness after looking at it along the way?
Mrs. Xie sneered, "Your father is now a fifth-rank official, but with his upright personality, he will be regarded as living on his salary for granted, and has no other way out. And if he wants to make progress, he must work around. So, from Dafang’s point of view, we are still stretched thin. As for the Yuying Peanut Oil and Yuying Restaurant that our family is currently running, there is no reason for them to know.”

Chu Qiaoruo said: "But after they came, they should not be able to hide it."

Xie smiled indifferently, "Why do you want to hide it? Let's live well, and it has nothing to do with them. The two families have separated long ago."

Yingruo remembered a sentence, don't bully young people into poverty.

The so-called Ten Years in Hedong and Ten Years in Hexi, no one knows what the future will be like, so we still have to keep a line in life.

The mother and daughter were talking, when they heard the report that the eldest aunt had come.Xie quickly asked someone to come in.

When Chu Qinghua came here, the maid behind her was holding two brocade boxes in her hands.

"I just packed the box and found two hairpins, both of which are fashionable in Beijing, let's give them to my two younger sisters to play with!"

Yingruo and Chu Qiaoruo looked at each other and thanked each other.He also understood that Chu Qinghua meant to give a supplementary gift.

Speaking of it, although Chu Qinghua was taught by the Wang family, after all, she married into the Marquis of Changlong, and she acted too stingy, which lost the face of the Marquis of Changlong.

The table at Yuying Restaurant arrived soon, and the four of them sat around and ate together, said some innocuous words, and then went back to the courtyard.

Yingruo let out a long breath, she was really impatient with such entertainment.

The next day, when Yingruo went to Mrs. Xie's for breakfast, she heard Chu Qingyang and Yang Rundong begging to see her.

Mrs. Xie frowned, there is no man in the family, these two are really not suitable for living at home.

Yingruo avoided the inner room, so Mrs. Xie invited him in.

The purpose of the two of them coming here is good, that is to inform Mrs. Xie that they are going to Mizhou Academy to find the head of the mountain to vote for.The post was given by Chu Zijiu when he was in the capital.

After the two left, Yingruo asked her doubts, "The Lingshan Academy in Yulan County all requires entrance examinations. Compared with Lingshan Academy, this Mizhou Academy is so relaxed?"

Mrs. Xie patiently explained: "The whole of Mizhou is just these two academies. But when it comes to popularity, regardless of the remoteness of Lingshan Academy, it is much better than Mizhou Academy."

Ying Ruo was thoughtful, "But because Lingshan Academy was founded by Mrs. An?"

Xie said: "Of course it is related, but what is more important is that Lingshan Academy has produced more than 20 Jinshi in recent years. Especially in the past few years, although your father is not from Lingshan Academy, he is from Yulan County. Both Guangyu and Mr. An have stayed in Lingshan Academy, and this year's Tanhualang is also from Lingshan Academy. Mizhou Academy is just an ordinary state school, whether it is from the equipment of teachers or the cultivation of talents , are much looser.”

Yingruo said: "Then the two of them came from a long way, did they worship a fake Buddha's head?"

Xie Shi said: "Not entirely. I also figured out what your father meant. If these two were talented in reading, he wouldn't recommend them to Mizhou Academy."

"I understand." Yingruo suddenly said, "The main purpose of letting them come to Mizhou Academy is to avoid disaster, and we don't expect them to make progress."

Thinking about the knowledge of these two people, Chu Zijiu had inspected it a long time ago, and he was probably sent here because he failed to catch his eye.

Mrs. Xie said: "Look at their personal fortunes! Taifu An has come to Mizhou now, it seems that he wants to settle down, and maybe he can also support Mizhou Academy."

Yingruo smiled, the fate of those two had nothing to do with her, so she didn't worry about it either.As long as it doesn't affect her life, it's fine.

Just as he was talking, Chu Qinghua came.
