The general's wife knows medicine

Tang Peipei prepared a large table of delicious food for lunch today, including meat and vegetables. She also bought a duck and fried a dish of duck offal and made an old duck soup.

Looking at the table full of delicious dishes, Lu Gang asked Lu Zidong to go to the headman's house to ask if there was any wine. He had to have a couple of drinks to calm his nerves.

Yuan Mingkang went with Lu Zidong, and when they came back all the dishes were on the table.

Lu Gang waved his hand and said, "Eat."

Then he smiled and asked Lu Lifeng to fill up Mu Jintang and Yang Tingzhen's glasses, and he handed the glass to Lu Lifeng.

Lu Lifeng poured wine for everyone one by one.

"Come on, try it. You haven't had the chance to taste my granddaughter's real cooking in the past month on the road. You must have a good taste this time." For some reason, Lu Gang wanted Mu Jintang to know that although his granddaughter had given birth to a child, she was not only beautiful, but also had good cooking skills. She was not much worse than those ladies from wealthy families.

Mu Jintang had no idea what the old man was thinking. She happily started eating the food and didn't forget to praise it while eating.

This made Tang's mother very happy and she kept picking food for him.

Seeing how disappointing Tang's mother was, Lu Gang was so angry that he couldn't vent it. So he turned his anger into appetite and started eating voraciously.

Chen Cuihua and Lu Gang have been married for many years. As soon as she saw him like that, she knew he was angry, but she also felt puzzled.

She signaled Lu Gang with her eyes, asking him to restrain himself. Seeing that his wife had asked him to restrain himself, Lu Gang restrained himself a little.

After dinner, Tang Peipei asked Yuan Mingkang and Lu Zidong to pack up and dress neatly. She wanted to take them into the city to find Mr. Fu and settle their studies as soon as possible.

Mu Jintang said he had nothing to do anyway, so he went along.

So Tang Peipei took Lu Zidong and Yuan Mingkang and got on Mu Jintang's carriage.

Tang Peipei didn't expect that Mu Jintang's carriage looked not much different from their carriage on the outside, but there was something else inside.

The decorations inside the carriage are all top-grade items, and there is even a large luminous pearl on the top of the carriage.

Tang Peipei was stunned. This was too extravagant.

Mu Jintang found it a little funny to see Tang Peipei's stunned look.

Tang Peipei glared at him and turned away, ignoring him.

Mu Jintang was a little embarrassed, "Does Mr. Fu need my help in saying anything?"

Tang Peipei said: "You followed me all the way, what else do you need to say?"

Mu Jintang thought about it and realized that he was just making small talk.

Tang Peipei said: "I still want to go to Suzhou by myself."

Mu Jintang looked up at Tang Peipei and asked, "Why do you want to go by yourself again?"

Tang Peipei said, "Since I want to do this, I can't leave everything to my uncle. I want to go to Suzhou to see if there are any new ideas. After all, when I was in Jinghe Town, I basically sold all the new styles I could think of to Brother Zeng. Now I can't just give them out again. It's immoral."

In fact, Tang Peipei could get new inspiration by visiting Beijing more often, but she wanted to go to Suzhou to see if there was anything she could use there.

"If you really want to go, how about I accompany you?" Mu Jintang asked.

In fact, Tang Peipei was very grateful to Mu Jintang for treating her like this even though he knew that she had given birth to a child.

She knew that Yang Tingzhen was so eager to help her, it must have been Mu Jintang's instruction, so she had to work harder to make money and try to get closer to him.

"No need. I guess you can't leave the court. I have Wu San and my uncle with me here, so it won't be a problem." Tang Peipei said.

Mu Jintang was not reassured by this, but he had made other plans in his mind, so he didn't say anything more.

When they arrived in the city, this time because of Mu Jintang's identity, they were able to travel directly in the city by carriage.

Tang Peipei bought some cakes and brought them to Mr. Fu as a gift.

The person who opened the door for them today was the same kid who opened the door yesterday.

Seeing that it was Tang Peipei who had been there the day before, he let them into the yard directly.

He shouted into the room, "Sir, the person who came for consultation yesterday is here."

A man who looked to be in his thirties came out of the house. It was the first time Tang Peipei saw someone with a goatee. Why did he look so strange?

Tang Peipei straightened his expression and said to Mr. Fu, "Mr. Fu, I came here today to bring my two younger brothers to study in your private school. I wonder if Mr. Fu will accept them."

Mr. Fu didn't expect to see Mu Jintang in his own yard. He was a little surprised and didn't notice that Tang Peipei was talking to him.

Seeing that Mr. Fu had not made any movement, Mu Jintang coughed, pointed at Tang Peipei and said, "This girl is here to study with Mr. Fu, can you take a look?"

Mr. Fu finally responded and said, "Who wants to learn? Come forward and let me see."

Yuan Mingkang pulled Lu Zidong forward and knelt down in front of Mr. Fu, kowtowed and said, "Sir."

Seeing what Yuan Mingkang did, Lu Zidong followed suit and said, “Mr.

Mr. Fu looked at the two of them and was quite satisfied. He asked, "Have you ever come across any books before?"

Yuan Mingkang said: "In reply to the teacher's question, I have never been exposed to books before, but my sister has taught me some simple characters."

Mr. Fu looked at Tang Peipei curiously: "Oh, young lady, can you read?"

Tang Peipei said: "Well, I learned it before and went to school for a few years."

Mr. Fu nodded. In that era, no family would send their daughters to school. It seemed that this family had some knowledge.

Mr. Fu looked at Lu Zidong again and asked, "What about you? Have you learned it?"

Lu Zidong said: "In reply to your question, sir, I am just like my brother. I have only learned a little from my sister and have never come into contact with any books."

Mr. Fu didn't expect that his elder sister had studied for a few years, but his two younger brothers had never been to school.

Tang Peipei saw Mr. Fu's confusion and said, "It's like this, Yuan Minkang is your aunt's son." Tang Peipei pointed at Yuan Minkang.

Then he pointed at Lu Zidong and said, "This is the boy from my uncle's family."

Mr. Fu then understood that it was no wonder that they were just cousins.

But he thinks he has a liking for the two children, but the older one is probably about ten years old now, and if he starts school now, he probably won't achieve much success.

But he didn't know that Tang Peipei sent the two of them to study not because she hoped that the two children would achieve great success.

"Yuan Minkang is older, so it may not be easy for him to learn." Mr. Fu felt that he still had to explain it clearly to Tang Peipei.

Tang Peipei nodded and said, "I understand this. Please pay attention to it, Mr. Fu. I don't ask my two younger brothers to pass the imperial examinations in the future, but I don't want them to be blind for the rest of their lives." After thinking for a while, he said, "If they are capable, how far they can go in the future depends entirely on their own abilities."

After listening to Tang Peipei's words, Mr. Fu was very satisfied. It was rare to have such an insightful family. It seemed that these two children would not be difficult to teach.

Then he smiled and said, "In that case, let's start school tomorrow."

Upon hearing that Mr. Fu had agreed to admit them, Yuan Mingkang and Lu Zidong happily kowtowed to Mr. Fu twice.

Tang Peipei also thanked him again and again.

Then he went home with his two younger brothers.

Mu Jintang stayed and asked Yang Tingzhen to send the three people back to the village.
