The girls' school closed on the same day as Yunfei Academy, and the streets were bustling again. Just like when school started, countless people pointed at the Lin family's simple carriage, but this time they were mostly envious. Every year, the girls' school would put up a sign to recruit 10 common people, but everyone knew how many common people were admitted every year. But this year, a daughter from a real commoner family was admitted.

That’s right, I’m talking about her—Lin Yining.

Xiao Yining listened to the sounds outside, lifted the car curtain and looked at the street he hadn't seen for half a month.

"Oh, you are really a beautiful girl. You look like a spoiled child at home. Even the Royal Girls' School is willing to send you to school."

"..." Xiao Yining looked at the man yelling on the street, who was looking at her with a smile. She smiled back, "Hello, uncle!"

"Oh my, you are such a sweet talker. It's good to be sweet-mouthed. You won't be bullied in the girls' school." The uncle said with a smile.

Xiao Yining showed her signature shy smile, waved her hand, and lowered the curtain.

"This pretty girl is still shy." Passersby smiled kindly.

Xiao Yining touched her little pigtails and wondered what had happened. She had become famous in the last school.

Wan Niang looked at her daughter's confused look, touched her head and said with a smile, "Now everyone in Yanjing calls you Miss Wan Liang."

Miss Wanliang, oh my god, this name is so ugly.

"Sister Qing, can't you be a rich lady?" Little Yining said aggrievedly, making everyone in the car laugh.

"Of course you can. From now on, Sister Qing will be our daughter." Wan Niang hugged her daughter in her arms and gave her a sweet kiss.

After little Yining went to school, the Lin family's reputation in Yanjing suddenly improved. Countless people knew about their family, allowing them to quickly gain a foothold as they had just arrived. This was something no one had expected.

"Tomorrow, mother will take you to visit old lady Zhang. As soon as we get here, we will be taken care of by the Zhang family."

"Is Dad going?" Little Yining asked, looking up. Her father was released later than her, so Old Man Zheng went to pick her up. Her mother and grandmother also came to pick her up.

"Of course I want to go."

That's all right. Of course the whole family must go to visit together. In any case, her father cannot be left idle.

Little Yining took out a few ropes from her snack bag and weaved them together. She would definitely give gifts when she visited tomorrow. The gifts belonged to her parents, and she was giving them to them. The girls' school also taught needlework, and she learned how to make several ropes.

When Lin Yuzan returned home, he saw Aunt Zhao coming out with a zither in her arms. He already knew that a few days ago, Qing Jieer was pitied for not having a zither and was given a zither as a gift. "Aunt Zhao, why did you bring this zither back?"

When Zhao Ya saw the master, her eyes lit up. Thinking that her master came from the countryside and probably didn't know about this zither, she said, "Miss, you don't like this zither, so I'll take it back and put it in the storeroom."

Lin Yuzan took a deep breath. This Imperial Girls' School was indeed not a good place. Qing Jie had only been there for a few days and she had already developed a habit of being picky. She might become spoiled in the future. "Madam Zhao, give me the zither and ask the young lady to go to the study."

Zhao Ya reluctantly handed over the zither and said, "Master, please take care and don't break it."

"..."

Little Yining is still visiting his new home, a two-entry house in the west lane. His grandmother's house is next door. There is a door in the wall between the two houses, so they can just walk over if they have something to do. Their two families moved out of the Zhang family's old house in a hurry because they were taken care of too much by the Zhang family. When their family, including Little Yining, sent three students to school, the old lady Zhang returned the rent and said that the two families could live there until they finished their studies.

Although the host said so, both families were well-mannered. Li Anhe immediately brought Wan Niang to visit them, explained the situation to Old Lady Zhang, and then bought the house and moved out.

Although this house is not as good as the old Zhang family house, it is better because the title deed is written in her father's name. A golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as her own dog house.

"Mom, remember to write your name on the house we buy next time." Xiao Yining reminded.

"Mother understands, little housekeeper." After Wan Niang let her daughter take a tour, she asked Madam Zhao to take her to find her husband.

Lin Yuzan was looking at the letters sent from his hometown at this moment. The prefect gave him and Wang Cheng two places to study in the prefectural city. They both left the opportunity to the clan school. He also sent back a lot of books from Yanjing and exam questions from past dynasties. "I didn't expect that I didn't bring Uncle Zheng Yuan with me in this life, and the clan elders actually asked him and his family to come and take care of me."

Uncle Zheng Yuan is the third oldest in the clan school. He followed Lin Yuzan all his life in his previous life. After Lin Yuzan died, he became a gravekeeper.

Lin Yuzan picked up another letter from home, and saw a silver note of 100 taels. His eyes were red, this was from his grandparents, even though they were heartbroken by his parents, they still took care of him as before.

At this time, there was a knock on the door and little Yining was brought in by Zhao Ya.

"Dad, are you looking for me?"

Lin Yuzan's face turned serious. He came to the wrapped piano and slowly opened it. "Qing Jie'er, since someone gave you the piano, you should use it for a few years. Don't... uh... don't..."

Little Yining looked at her father holding the cloth motionless, and walked over curiously to check. Seeing his face flushed and staring at the piano, "Dad, did you see the bugs running out of the piano and scared you?"

Fortunately she didn't touch it. It had been covered with dust for so long that it might have been a home for termites.

Lin Yuzan stiffly rewrapped the zither, yelling at Aunt Zhao to keep it safe. Then he picked up his daughter and strode to the next room.

"Dad, let's go to grandma's house for dinner?" Little Yining asked again as he looked at his father's anxious look.

"Talk to your uncle and come back."

Then hold me in your arms and go see me. Don’t you know that things smell better when they are far away than when they are close? That’s why we separated. If you weren’t my father, I wouldn’t want to see you either.

The next moment, Xiao Yining could no longer think about it. She glanced at her serious father, then glanced at her frowning uncle, and sat down on the chair obediently.

"This piano must be used. That person said clearly that Sister Qing should play it in class." Wang Cheng said, touching his chin.

Lin Yuzan looked at his daughter and said, "This is too much of a waste of talent."

Listening to his father's reluctance, Xiao Yining rolled her eyes in her heart, thinking that I was not worthy of good things. "I want the piano that my father made for me. This piano was given to me by someone I don't know. Sister Qing doesn't want it."

Wang Cheng and Lin Yuzan looked at each other and fell into deep thought. They really had no contact with the emperor now, so could they really not know?

"Then during the next ten-day break, Dad will go to the suburbs to find a good piece of wood to make a piano for Sister Qing." Lin Yuzan compromised.

"Next time if you meet someone like that, remember to come back and tell your uncle and your father. Did you remember that, Sister Qing?" Wang Cheng also reminded.

Xiao Yining nodded. It was just a harp. Why make such a fuss? And the man who was going to be an official in the future, she knew the identity of the person she met after just a few words.
