Dominate the ancient academy

In addition to the ruby ​​and gold hairpins, she also bought some pens, ink, bows and arrows, Kongming locks, and rattles for children. The older one is six years old, and the younger one is three years old. Both of them can play with them. These things are very delicate. Shu Xiaoxiao feels that she can play with her nephews when she goes back.

In ancient times, many accessories had meanings, and Shu Xiaoxiao really couldn't tell them apart. In the end, she just bought two batches of expensive fabrics for her two sisters-in-law, which were both presentable and would not cause any controversy.

Shu Xiaoxiao was generous when she had money to buy things. She would buy anything she liked. Shu Tingyu, who was standing next to her, was envious. Isn't her sister's piggy bank too rich? This is nearly two thousand taels. My goodness, is this the legendary saying that things are more valuable because they are rare? Three boys are not as well treated as a girl. The eldest and second brothers both gave birth to sons, so he must give birth to a daughter in the future.

When Shu Xiaoxiao was about to reach the general's mansion, she felt more and more guilty. She wondered how many times her mother had written about her behavior of acting first and reporting later. However, she would have to face these things sooner or later. If she stuck her head out, she would be cut off. If she withdrew her head, she would be cut off. She hoped that her mother would let her go for the gift.

Shu Tingfei was quite happy. His mother usually missed his sister the most. Now that his sister was back, she must be very happy. Besides, he was not like his sister who could go to Prince Yun to eat delicious food in the academy. He had to make good rest this time when he came back.

Although she had done a lot of psychological preparation in her heart, when she saw Ye Xue Ning and her mother's tears, Shu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but tear up.

She has a very good relationship with her modern mother, and the mother and daughter can talk about basically anything. Although she didn't spend much time with Ye Xue Ning after traveling through time, Ye Xue Ning always considered her in every way during the few times they met. Every year, Ye Xue Ning would sew clothes for her. Half of her clothes were made by Ye Xue Ning herself. The third brother said that since she went to Qinglian Village, he and his eldest and second brothers rarely received clothes sewn by their mother.

Shu Xiaoxiao always thought that she was just a bystander and had not integrated into this world, but now she realizes that she seemed to be wrong. She had already integrated into this world. Her father, mother, brother, grandfather, aunt, and Zhenzhu were not paper people but living people. There were also the friends in Qinglian Village. Their interactions were real, their feelings were real, and the ginseng treasure was also real.

That world has passed, and this world is real.

Looking at her mother's eyes full of love, Shu Xiaoxiao bowed and said.

"Ye Xiao has met his aunt!"

No matter how sentimental you are, you must not forget your current identity.

"Xiaoxiao..." When Ye Xuening heard Xiaoxiao mention her aunt, she came back to her senses and smiled.

"I haven't seen you for a few years. Our Xiaoxiao has become much prettier." Ye Xue Ning sighed. The three boys all grew up by her side, but the youngest daughter had always been away from her for a long time. It ached her heart whenever she thought about it. Fortunately, Xiaoxiao had grown up healthy.

"Aunt, boys cannot be said to be pretty, they are handsome!" Shu Xiaoxiao looked at her mother a little guilty.

Ye Xue Ning glared at her and said helplessly: "Yes, Xiao Xiao has become more handsome."

"Come, these are your eldest and second sisters-in-law."

Shu Xiaoxiao greeted them immediately. This was the first time she met her two sisters-in-law.

General Shu Jingtian and Master Shu Tingyun were far away in the battlefield, and the eldest son Shu Tingyu had not returned from court yet, so only the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law were left in the mansion.

Sisters-in-law Zhou Wenxiu and Zhao Yiyi were quite fond of Shu Xiaoxiao when they saw her. Both of them had some invisible face control and had a natural liking for good-looking people.

Besides, because the father-in-law only has the mother-in-law, the husband also follows suit and has promised to be together for life. This is all thanks to the mother-in-law. What's more, after she got married, the mother-in-law is very kind and has never set any rules for her. Not to mention the envy of other ladies, even her own mother envies their lives and tells them that they married the right person and must serve their husband and parents-in-law well and not cause trouble.

How many people envy their lives? They don't make trouble for no reason. They get along better with their mother-in-law than some real mothers and daughters.

Therefore, they were extremely welcoming to this cousin from their mother-in-law's family.

Since both parties were willing to make friends, the atmosphere naturally became more harmonious. After dinner, Ye Xue Ning took Shu Xiaoxiao back to Zhichun Garden.

Zhichun Garden is picturesque and has pleasant views. The furnishings inside were all personally reviewed and arranged by Ye Xue Ning, but because of Shu Xiaoxiao's current identity, the settings inside are more neutral, which is less likely to arouse people's suspicion.

Ye Xue Ning, who was smiling, dismissed the servants as soon as she entered Huichun Garden.

When Shu Xiaoxiao saw this, she immediately took Ye Xuening's arm and begged for mercy: "Mom, I know I was wrong!"

"You are so bold. The academy is full of men. What would you do if you, a girl, were discovered? Do you want to keep your reputation?"

"Don't worry, mother. I'm very careful and will never let anyone find out. Besides, my third brother is here to protect me in the academy."

"Girls are freer before they get married. After they get married, they have too many things to worry about. If you want to stay in the academy, you must protect yourself, understand?"

"I understand, mother. From now on, I can come back once a month and spend more time with you!"

Thinking of the reason why her daughter stayed in Qinglian Village, Ye Xue Ning sighed.

"That's fine. The emperor is still in good health, so let those princes mess around. You can study hard in the academy and learn some skills. It's always good to have many skills. You can also take a look at the academy to see if there are any outstanding men and choose one for yourself in advance."

"Mom." Shu Xiaoxiao stretched out her tone. How old is she?

Seeing her daughter's disagreement, Ye Xue Ning did not persuade her any further. Xiaoxiao could indeed wait for another two years. It all depended on fate. If there was fate, she didn't need to ask her any more instructions, it would come naturally. If there was no fate, they would meet slowly. Besides, she also wanted to keep her daughter for a few more years.

"Also, you spent a lot of money on those things you bought today, do you have any money left?"

Those gifts were all very valuable, especially the hairpin, which was not an ordinary item. There were also gifts from other people, which made her sigh that Xiaoxiao had indeed grown up. Although it didn't matter whether Xiaoxiao brought gifts or not as long as she was around, these gifts were indeed worthy of being looked up to.

Thinking about it, he took out the two thousand taels of silver he had prepared just now and said, "You are studying abroad now. If you are short of money, just tell mother. Don't compromise yourself by doing what you like."

"Mom, I still have some?"

"I know how much you have. Mother only has one daughter, so I am happy to give you money."

"Okay, thank you, mother." Shu Xiaoxiao took it happily. She liked this kind of mother who would give her money at any time.

As the two were talking, there was a knock on the door: "Madam, the young master is back."

Shu Tingyu felt something was wrong as soon as he heard that his cousin came to Yuren Academy to study. He remembered that most of his cousins ​​were studying herbal medicine and medical theory, so even if they were going to an academy, they would not travel thousands of miles to come to Yuren Academy.

There was also the matter of the housekeeper buying a house when the academy opened. When I came back today, I heard that my mother had placed my cousin in Zhichunyuan, and we were reminiscing about the past in the room again. This feeling that something was wrong became even stronger.
