Although Shan Jie'er attended the girls' school in the clan school, she knew that during the few days when Hu Ge'er was there, he was really ostracized by his cousins.

Moreover, the quality of He family studies is really not that good.

It's easier for girls to go to school, because girls are quiet after all. Even if they are a little spoiled or naughty, it's very limited. But on the boys' side, there are all kinds of monsters. If Hu Ge'er goes to school now, even if he is in good health, he will still be clumsily learning boxing and kicking, which will still not work.

Aunt Su laughed.

"Who said that Hu Ge'er should go to the He family's clan school?"

"We have moved to the best school district, why do we have to go back to the Cowherd Tribe to study?"

Although I may not quite understand what Aunt Su said, I can guess the general meaning.

"I mean, let both of you go to the elementary school for half a day! I've asked around, the academy closest to us is one of the best in the capital, it has classes for children, and also for girls, you can join in halfway, you can go for an hour and a half every morning, stay at home in the afternoon, and have a day off every seven days, is that okay?"

"Although the academy is very good, you still need an interview to get in. I will take you to the interview the day after tomorrow. If you fail the interview, you still can't go in! Then we can only invite teachers from outside to teach you."

After Aunt Su said this, the two kids, who originally didn't want to go, suddenly became nervous.

It is one thing that they don’t want to go to school outside, but if they go for an interview and fail, won’t they lose face?

Besides, since it is the best academy in the capital... I am a little bit looking forward to it.

After all, it’s only half a day of school and you’ll be back in the afternoon!

Moreover, once you enroll in a school here, you will have a reason to live here for a long time!

They lived very happily with their grandmother, and no one wanted to go back to the Duke's Mansion.

Aunt Su pointed at the four sets of desks.

"Your mother has asked the princess to help you and hire a teacher to teach you how to interview at the academy. The teacher will be here soon. You must study hard!"

Seeing the two kids looking a little flustered, Aunt Su felt a bit as happy as when she sent the little girl back to elementary school.

In fact, she cleaned up this classroom not just for the two little ones.

Well, didn’t she take on another mission from Zhu?

The last time I got the test paper from Su Heiya, I heard from Su Heiya that Heiya consulted two child education experts, and this paper was obtained from these two people.

Perhaps these two teachers are from the same school, and the contents of their papers are exactly the same.

So after Su Heiya finished it, she made some minor revisions and sent it to Aunt Su.

Su Heiya also told Aunt Su that if she was really diagnosed with a defect in some aspect, she might ask to take classes with the other party.

Then it is definitely not possible to attend classes in person, and you can only buy transcribed online courses.

So Aunt Su planned to ask Su Heiya to transfer the course over, and then she would play it in this classroom.

Anyway, this is not the first or second time that she has asked the immortal to appear.

It would be normal to ask the fairy boy to come down and teach the stupid child of the Zhu family, right?

Of course, after the classroom is built, she can also pick one or two cartoons or science short films suitable for Coral and his sister to watch and show them to the two little ones.

Thinking that their teacher would be here soon, the two little kids were a little nervous. But with a new classroom, they were very happy for a while.

Sure enough, less than half an hour later, Lin Yanniang came with an elderly gentleman.

Although the Heguogong Mansion is considered a well-known noble family in the capital, the Heguogong Mansion obtained the title through military merit. Although the later generations also wanted to pursue literary studies, they did not have the talent.

Otherwise, the He family's clan studies wouldn't be in such a mess.

This old gentleman was a double-listed Jinshi and had served as a doctor in the Imperial College. As he was old, he retired and lived in idleness at home.

If it wasn't for the Fifth Princess's consideration, how could this old Mr. Gao come to tutor two little kids who have just started to learn?

Although there were two people attending the temporary training class, the focus was actually on Hu Ge'er.

After all, the Dongcheng Academy trains talents for scientific examinations, so naturally the threshold is much higher.

As for women's schools, they are nothing more than improving women's knowledge and cultivation, and there is no rigid assessment index. Besides, although the capital is rich and prosperous, and many people are willing to give their daughters a lot of dowry, but not many people know to send their daughters to women's schools. With fewer students, isn't the competition smaller?

So Sister Shan can almost go to school with her eyes closed.

But if Hu Ge'er doesn't intensify his training, even if he has an amazing memory and a very high IQ, it's still a bit risky.

After thanking the old gentleman again and again, they watched Mr. Gao walk into the classroom and start cramming for the two children before the exam. Aunt Su and Lin Yanniang tiptoed out of the yard and went to the tea room to watch the maids prepare tea and snacks.

"Mother, half a year ago, I wouldn't have dared to think about it. I was even worried that one day Hu Ge'er wouldn't be able to attend Dongcheng Academy!"

Lin Yanniang checked the snacks intermittently while expressing her feelings to Aunt Su.

Half a year ago, she was still worried about Hu Ge'er's illness and prayed to God hoping that Hu Ge'er could live longer. As for studying hard and bringing honor to the family, she never dared to think about it!

"Aren't these days getting better and better?"

Aunt Su patted Lin Yanniang's hand and said, "We are close to the water and have the advantage of being the first to get the moon. I'm afraid that the first and second wives of Duke He's Mansion don't have such a good opportunity as Hu Ge'er."

Speaking of this, Lin Yanniang couldn't help but laugh.

"If the boys from the first and second wives can stay out of trouble and sit down to learn a few words, my sisters-in-law will probably be thankful."

Although Zhu gave such a nice courtyard to her mother, the ones who actually benefited the most were her and her two children.

If Hu Ge'er can really go to school in the future and his sisters-in-law from the first and second wives hear about it, they will definitely be envious, jealous and resentful.

But now the matter of Hu Ge'er entering the academy has not been finalized yet, so she has to keep her mouth shut and not let it leak out, otherwise it will cause trouble.

Lin Yanniang went out early and came back late every day. On the day after tomorrow, she finally sent the two little ones to the interview.

As expected, with Mr. Gao’s expedited training, both kids successfully passed the admission interview.

Although the two little ones attended their own clan school, the school was right next to Duke He's mansion, so they didn't even have to go through the main gate to go to school. They could go straight out of the side door and into the clan school.

Moreover, the teachers and students were either surnamed He or relatives of the He family, so there wasn't really a serious school atmosphere.

But this time it's very different.

Not only did the school give them summer clothes, but they were also green with blue edges, and their simplicity carried an indescribable scholarly air.

My grandmother had someone make them all sturdy, beautiful and novel schoolbags early on, and the new things in the bags were all in sets.

A stationery box, a ruler and a small charcoal pencil, a bound notebook, and a textbook wrapped in a book cover...

With so many interesting things, wouldn’t the little ones go to school happily as if it were a holiday?

Lin Yanniang sent the two children to school and did not return to the He Mansion. Instead, she came to Aunt Su's place.

She held the pencil case in her hand, and looked at the ruler, charcoal pencil and small notebook, and couldn't help but marvel at it.

"It's true that there are generations apart. When I was a kid and went to school, my mother gave me a set of four treasures of the study."

When Lin Yanniang was young, the Lin Bo Mansion was not yet in decline.

Although there is no clan school, we still invited a teacher to be the principal.

However, Lin Yanniang only went to school for four years.

Aunt Su pouted and said with a smile, "Here's another set, hurry up and take it! You're already grown up, and you're still competing with your children for favor!"

The original person favored boys over girls, and thought that having a daughter was only slightly better than having no child at all, so he did not attach importance to his daughter's education.

Lin Yanniang had only been in school for four years, but because Boss Lin mentioned it to Uncle Lin, the female teacher had been in Uncle Lin's house for four years and had taught almost everything. Besides Lin Yanniang, there were no other girls who wanted to go to school, and it would be a waste to keep this teacher, so Uncle Lin dismissed her.

The original body actually felt that it was not very useful for a woman to read so many books. It would be better for her to practice accounting and housekeeping at home.

So Lord Lin made the decision, and the original body did not dare to object.

The original person was confused, and Aunt Su really didn't want to take the blame for her.

Lin Yanniang didn't really want to complain. Although her mother used to be timid, she was not bad compared to other people's mothers. What's more, she has become more powerful now, as if she was assisted by a god.

"Well, mother, I saw that these little things were very unique, so I thought of making them in my shop and selling them. Is that okay?"

The shop she opened was also inspired by this. It sells some specialties and groceries, and business is pretty good.

Now that I see these new little things, I feel like I have discovered new business opportunities.

"take it!"

Aunt Su waved her hand. In fact, she had a lot of things that could make her big and small money.

But isn't she too lazy to think about it?

"Thank you mother!"

Lin Yanniang thanked him with a smile and solemnly put away the set of stationery.

When the two children came back from school, their mothers asked them about their lives and chatted and laughed.

Hu Ge'er is not good at speaking, but Shan Jie'er is a chatterbox.

They talked about their classmates and the lessons they had learned today, and the room was suddenly filled with laughter.

When Lin Yanniang returned to Duke He's Mansion, she saw He Lao San already waiting in Weirui Courtyard.

When He Lao San saw Lin Yanniang, he said with a fake smile, "Madam San has been very busy these days."

He didn't like coming to this yard before. Lin Yanniang was sad all day long, Hu Ge'er was half dead, and the smell of medicine was everywhere.

But now, he finally came here, but it was deserted, without a single soul in sight!

What about the Third Madam, Hu Ge'er, and Shan Jie'er? None of these three are here!

They all went to my mother-in-law's house!

Lin Yanniang was in a good mood and sat down leisurely in the armchair beside the table.

"Third Master, what you said is quite right. I have been very busy these past few days."

As he said this, he counted on his fingers to show He Laosan the things he had done.

"I went to the Princess's Mansion to talk to the Princess, asked Mr. Gao to give the children some advice, sent the children to the East City Academy for an interview, and sent them to school on their first day. After school, I took them to my mother's place. Aren't I a very busy person?"

When He Laosan heard her talking about the Princess's Mansion, he was very disapproving.

Although going to the princess's mansion sounds like quite a feat, after trying to curry favor with the princess for so long, he still hasn't gained anything?

But when he heard about Mr. Gao, Dongcheng Academy, and going to school, his eyes became wider and wider.

"No, wait, what did you say? Dongcheng Academy? Hu Geer went to Dongcheng Academy?"

"That's right! Not only Hu Ge'er, but also Shan Jie'er, has gone to the women's department of Dongcheng Academy!"

Lin Yanniang was just looking for someone to show off to, and then He Laosan just happened to run into her, didn't he?

"What? Hu Ge'er really went to the East City Academy?"

What about Hu Ge'er's health? He couldn't even go to the clan school, so how could he go to the most famous academy in the capital?

"Yes! The interview with Brother Hu took an hour. I was waiting outside and I was so anxious. Fortunately, our Brother Hu is smart and he answered all the questions asked by the teachers. Now he can go in to study, right?"

"The tuition fee for the academy is five hundred taels a year? You..."

Lin Yanniang glanced at him and smiled, "Look at what Third Master said. We only have one legitimate son and one legitimate daughter. What is five hundred taels of tuition?"

"Besides, the tuition is also paid by my mother, and the academy is close to my mother's yard, so it's convenient for Hu Ge'er and Shan Jie'er to go to school! They can just walk there!"

Although the Heguo Mansion sounds very prestigious, none of the young masters of the Mansion have ever attended Dongcheng Academy.

It’s not impossible to take out five hundred taels of silver, but if the eldest brother goes, the second brother must go too, right?

Besides, the people of the He family are really not cut out for studying. They can stay in the family school without looking embarrassed in public. If they go to the academy, they will become a laughing stock.

Of course, the admission interview of Dongcheng Academy is also famous for its strictness.

But now, his son Hu Ge'er actually went in?

Buy one get one free, and Sister Shan is included?

"Brother Hu, did you really pass the interview?"

The interview for the girls' school was simpler than a formal interview, which was not surprising to him, but Hu Ge'er had not attended a formal school in these years, so how did he pass the interview?

"If you haven't passed the interview, how can you get in? As the father, why don't you wish for the best for Hu Ge'er?"

"No, I just thought that Hu Ge'er never went to school properly, didn't I?"

"Although Hu Ge'er didn't go to school for a few days, he didn't miss out on any of the books he should read and the calligraphy he should practice!"

"Besides, Brother Hu is much smarter than the others in the first and second wives. He went to class today and the teacher in the academy praised him!"
