Chapter nine
"Old lady..."
Ge Baoer was about to leave, so he returned to Mrs. Lu's house and wanted to ask about the situation in a panic.
Mrs. Lu frowned, looking down on her petty behavior.
Yan's mother stood up and said, "Girl, the prince, his wife, and the two young masters are waiting in the west room. If you have nothing important to do, wait until they leave."
She still hides when she sees her son and husband!
Ge Baoer felt like a mouse.
But she couldn't care less, so she asked Brother Qing why he had an extra brother.
Mrs. Lu was holding the porridge, without even looking at her, and told her coldly: "This is the Lu family's business and has nothing to do with you."
Ge Baoer lowered his head and said stubbornly: "Old madam, the one who loves your child the most in the world, and who wishes the best for your child the most, is your mother. Brother Qing is my son, I... have no other thoughts."
"Junior, please leave first."
She was just being quiet all the time, but when it came to her son, she spoke resolutely and sincerely.
Mrs. Lu snorted coldly and said, "That's all. Brother Qing is sincere. You go explain to her and tell her to feel at ease and not to cause trouble in the Lu family."
Yan’s mother: “Yes.”
Mrs. Lu put down the bowl and went to the west room to meet her junior. When she saw her grandson coming with Lin Yunwan, followed by Brother Qing, she immediately laughed.
This family looks so neat and tidy!
"Greetings to the old lady."
The Westerners said in unison.
After Mrs. Lu sat down, she asked them to sit down too.
After the family chatted for a while, Mrs. Lu sent the two children away and discussed their studies with Lin Yunwan.
Lu Zhengliu said: "Since there is a clan school at home, why not send them all to the clan academy."
After returning home, he specifically inquired about a famous scholar invited by the Lu family, who was very respectable.
It would be a blessing for Brother Qing if such a teacher came to teach his son.
Lin Yunwan rejected the proposal: "It's not good."
Mrs. Lu asked Lin Yunwan: "Do you have a better teacher candidate in your mind?"
"No."
If it weren't for some chance and coincidence, how could Lin Yunwan have hired a great scholar in the Lu family's school?
How could I possibly hire a better teacher than that one!
Lin Yunwan said: "Let them stay in the mansion for half a year first, and then send them to clan school after they are re-initiated."
Half a year? This is not a short time.
Brother Qing is seven years old. He originally went to school in the countryside and was already lagging behind the students of the same age in the capital. After another half a year...
Mrs. Lu remembered what Ge Baoer said, and she was worried that perhaps she was right, Lin Yunwan would not sincerely raise Brother Qing.
She tapped without leaving any trace: "Yun Wan, although Chang Gong studied two years less than Brother Qing, you can't drag Brother Qing into school just because of Chang Gong."
Lin Yun smiled gracefully.
Even if she had ulterior motives, it would not be used in such an insignificant place.
"Brother Qing just studied in the countryside for two years and didn't learn anything. Although the teacher in ethnic studies is good, it's useless if he can't keep up with the progress. If he is thrown in hastily, he is afraid that he will not learn well. He feels inferior to others and cannot hold his head high in front of his classmates."
"Old madam, you haven't thought about it. What will happen if Brother Qing fails to study well and his character is ruined?"
Mrs. Lu's heart sank, it was true!
She only wanted to let Brother Qing have a good teacher.
Sure enough, Lin Yunwan knew more about going to school than the Lu family.
But she herself was too suspicious due to Ge Baoer's influence.
Mrs. Lu remembered something and said with a smile: "I remember that when the old man was still alive, he praised your calligraphy. Enlightenment is nothing more than learning some "Hundred Family Surnames" and "Thousand Character Essay". Since you can't invite them either A better teacher, why don't you teach them two how to read and write. It will be a good time for you, mother and son, to be closer to each other."
Lu Zhengliu nodded slightly.
He also thought this was good. After all, Lin Yunwan was good at raising children, so there was no harm in Brother Qing getting closer to her.
"no."
When the grandfather and grandson heard Lin Yunwan's rejection on the spot, their expressions changed. Could it be that she still had problems with Brother Qing?
Lin Yunwan ignored their expressions and took a roster from Tao Ye and handed it over.
"I have been busy with general affairs for seven years, and I have long been unfamiliar with all aspects. I have chosen enlightened teachers for the two of them. These five are very suitable. After the old lady and the prince have selected them, they will just send someone to hire them."
Mrs. Lu looked at the roster suspiciously, and then... nodded with great satisfaction.
Not only are the names listed on it, but the family backgrounds of these people are also clearly written. They are all scholars with great reputations, and some are relatively famous. Please come and enlighten Brother Qing, it is more than enough.
Mrs. Lu handed the booklet to Lu Zhengliu again: "Take a look."
Lu Zhengliu took the brochure and after reading it, he said, "Grandma and... you just make up your mind."
Lin Yunwan thought more carefully than them.
He put down the book and looked up at Lin Yunwan.
Unexpectedly, she was usually stern and had a cold face, but she would be so sincere and attentive towards his son.
Mrs. Lu was beaming with joy, wishing that Lu Zhengliu would go out and ask the teacher to come over right away, but in the end she asked Lin Yunwan: "Is there anything special about inviting the teacher?"
Lin Yunwan lowered her eyes, it really happened.
Any famous scholar in the capital would not want to deal with the Lord's residence.
Everyone in the Lu family knows that one song is looked down upon by the civil servant family, and they are very taboo about this.
In her previous life, she often covered up the past for them for the sake of their self-esteem.
But in this life, there is no need for that.
She said it bluntly: "It would be better to ask the uncles and uncles of my mother's clan to come forward. It will be smoother than if the Lu family comes forward."
Mrs. Lu's smile froze. She, the Lu family, did not want to bow her head to the Lin clan for mercy.
Lu Zhengliu didn't want to either. He said with a cold face, "No need, I'll go and invite you myself."
Until now, he has not accompanied Lin Yunwan back home. Instead, he has to go to Mr. Lin to ask for a favor. He doesn't have the face to do so.
Lin Yunwan was happy to get rid of this trouble.
"My granddaughter-in-law is resigning."
Lu Zhengliu was in no hurry to leave, Ge Baoer came in.
Mrs. Lu still looked at her coldly, had the door closed, and avoided the room inside unfavorably.
Ge Baoer knew that her son's education was finalized, so he couldn't wait to ask, especially Yan's mother told her that Brother Qing didn't like Lin Yunwan from the beginning, and she was really afraid that her son would be treated harshly.
It doesn't matter anything else, but studying must not go astray.
Otherwise her son would be ruined.
Lu Zhengliu told her, "Yun—the teacher she found for Brother Qing is very good."
Ge Baoer was also illiterate and couldn't read the booklet in his hand.
She pursed her lips, still not convinced that Lin Yunwan could really be kind to her son?
Lu Zhengliu pressed her shoulders heavily and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, she is the head mother of the Lu family. It is her responsibility to raise children. She will not even have this kind of mind."
What do you mean, is it her fault for being too worried?
Ge Baoer pursed his lips.
Lu Zhengliu couldn't talk to her much, so he took the booklet, asked someone to prepare the horse, and went to find a teacher for Brother Qing himself.
