Dress up as a farm girl and make a lot of money with space
Chapter 159 Don’t be surprised if you give gifts to many people
Li Mingxia said that they didn't need to bring gifts just to comfort Li Sanlang and Zhang, fearing that they would feel bad about spending so much money. However, when they really had to go to the academy to meet the teacher, they absolutely could not do without gifts.
"The more gifts you bring, the better. Not only should you bring them, but you should also bring more. If people feel that you are not paying enough attention, you may get into trouble." Li Mingxia said to Li Zhengpin.
"Then what should we bring?" Li Zhengpin has read a lot of books now and has a certain understanding of these things. He knows that if he wants to study in the academy, he cannot avoid paying gifts.
Li Mingxia went to several shops and picked out a set of the best four treasures of the study, two rolls of fine silk, a box of cakes, and the last gift. Li Mingxia chose the food that all students would bring, 100 kilograms of polished rice.
"So many?" Although Li Zhengpin was mentally prepared, he was still a little shocked to see that his elder sister had picked so many things.
Li Mingxia also felt a little emotional. These things cost almost fifteen taels of silver. Although she intended to buy better ones, even if it was not these things, it would probably cost at least seven or eight taels of silver to get a gift that was worth looking at. Li Mingxia thought of the person in the old house of the Li family.
Li Zhengxue has studied for so many years. Although Li Mingxia doesn't know the details, he can tell that he must have spent a lot of money. No wonder the people in the Li family's old house have been working hard to make money over the years, even if they have to eat coarse food and only eat until they are three-quarters full, but they still live such a miserable life.
only--
Li Mingxia glanced at Li Zhengpin sitting on the ox cart. She was confident that even if her brother would not achieve much, he would never stay in the academy and refuse to work hard just for the sake of enjoyment when he knew that his family was suffering.
However, as the granddaughter of Mr. Li, Li Mingxia, who has also taken advantage of Mr. Li, sincerely hopes that Mr. Li’s investment can get the due return.
"Let's go. Even if these gifts are useless, there will definitely be no regrets." Li Mingxia said with a smile.
Originally, Li Mingxia wanted to choose another academy called Hong Book Academy to avoid Li Zhengxue, but after making inquiries from various sources, he found out that the current Baima Academy was much better than Hong Book Academy.
After much deliberation, Li Mingxia still chose to come to Baima Academy. Even if Li Zhengxue was here, he would not be in the same class with Li Zhengde. He would take his own classes and study his own knowledge without interfering with each other.
As for whether Li Zhengxue would come to find Li Zhengde, Li Mingxia was not worried about this matter. After several contacts, Li Mingxia had discovered that Li Zhengxue was arrogant and seemed to think that he was very great, so he would only wait for Li Zhengde to see him and would never take the initiative to talk to Li Zhengde. As for the probability.
Li Mingxia glanced at Li Zhengde, who was holding the four treasures of the study carefully. The probability of him waking up and returning to his original world was even smaller than that of himself.
There were two servants guarding the gate of the academy. When they saw Li Mingxia driving an ox cart with lots of bags and a boy by his side, they knew what was going on.
"Is this girl bringing your--" The servant's eyes fell on Li Zhengde, not knowing how to address him.
"I'm here with my brother to visit the Master. Please give me some favor." Li Mingxia bowed politely and stuffed a dozen copper coins into the two servants' pockets.
"Please have some tea, young men." Li Mingxia said with a smile.
The two servants were gatekeepers. They were usually sent by wealthy families to study, but they looked down on people of their status. Although ordinary country families were very polite, they had no money and were reluctant to reward them. It could be said that there was very little benefit from them. Li Mingxia was generous and polite, and the two servants' liking for her increased greatly in an instant.
"Girl, please bring your brother in with me. Don't worry, our teacher is very easy to talk to. As long as your brother is studious, he will have a chance." The servant said enthusiastically.
Is there a chance? Li Mingxia heard something from his words.
It's just an opportunity, but it doesn't mean you will be retained 100%. There should be a screening process in between.
Li Mingxia glanced at Li Zhengpin beside him and was still very confident. He knew his younger brother well. Even if he couldn't enter the intermediate class, it was not impossible for him to be the last in the elementary class. After all, he was young and he didn't mind supporting him for an extra year or two. It was nothing.
"We're here. Miss, wait for me here. I'll ask someone to tell the teacher." The servant couldn't enter the teacher's room at will. He could only tell the person serving at the door and then go back to continue guarding the door.
"Thank you, young man." After expressing his gratitude, Li Mingxia took Li Zhengde to wait at the door. Soon, a middle-aged woman came out of the door.
Judging from her clothes, she should be the master's wife. Li Mingxia did not dare to neglect her and quickly pulled Li Zhengde up to greet her.
"Bless you, ma'am."
"What a handsome girl, is this your brother? You can tell at a glance that he is a smart boy. My husband will surely like him. You came at the right time today." Mrs. Cao looked at the things in Li Zhengde and Li Mingxia's hands, and her smile became more sincere.
After entering the house, Li Mingxia finally understood what Mrs. Cao meant by "what a coincidence".
In addition to Li Zhengde, there were two boys of similar age in the room, standing in the middle. The teacher sat at the top with a smile on his face, looking quite satisfied.
"Master, this just arrived. I think he looks good, so I brought him in to show you." When Mrs. Cao saw Li Zhengde for the first time, she naturally didn't think he was a good person. She just thought the gift he brought was quite generous, so she thought he was good.
Li Mingxia felt even more that his decision was correct. It is always the same: the more courtesy you show, the less blame you will get. This is the wisdom of our ancestors, Li Mingxia sighed silently in his heart.
At this time, Li Zhengde had already respectfully performed the disciple salute to Master Cao at the top of the table. His movements were very standard and not awkward, which was very pleasing to the eye. Master Cao nodded and had a very good first impression of Li Zhengde.
"Before coming here, have you studied in other academies?" Li Zhengde should have passed the enlightenment stage at his age, but many country children had never been to school when they were sent here, so Master Cao asked this question.
"No." Li Zhengde said honestly.
Master Cao nodded and didn't say anything, but the people sitting on both sides showed a bit of disdain in their eyes, and they were even more proud when they looked at their own children.
