The most important thing for him next year is the imperial examination, so he should pay more attention to it.

Lu Yanzhou agreed on the surface, saying that he had planned his time well and would review his lessons when he had free time every day. He still went to the shops in town with Lin Yunchu and the others as usual every day.

Father Lin stamped his feet helplessly, but Lu Yanzhou was also stubborn, and nothing they said would be of any use once he had made a decision.

He had no choice but to tell Lin Yunchu privately that when he got to the shop, he should try not to assign any work to Yanzhou, and let him study in the room behind the shop when he was free.

We can't delay things. Lin Yunchu nodded repeatedly and assured his father, and then his father felt a little relieved.

Thinking of this, Lin Yunchu was thinking about how to tell Lu Yanzhou not to let him come to the shop. It would be bad if someone misunderstood that he was not allowing him to work.

"Brother Yanzhou, please go to the back and study for a while."

Taking advantage of the fact that the shop was relatively empty at this time, Lin Yunchu would usually let Lu Yanzhou go to the back room to review his studies.

Lu Yanzhou did not suspect anything. After hearing Lin Yunchu's words, he stood up and followed him to the backyard. He thought that like the previous few days, he was asked to review his lessons in the backyard.

However, seeing Lin Yunchu also followed him to the backyard, just when Lu Yanzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, a little puzzled, Lin Yunchu stopped and said to Lu Yanzhou:

"Brother Yanzhou, I actually have something I want to tell you."

Lin Yunchu raised the corner of his mouth slightly. After so many days, the two of them became much more familiar with each other and felt more comfortable when talking. Lin Yunchu didn't think too much about it.

I was thinking about Lin Changan at the time, so I thought of talking to Lu Yanzhou about it when I had some free time.

"Well, what's the matter?"

Lu Yanzhou and Lin Yunchu also became familiar with each other. His expressions softened a lot and he talked a lot more.

"The shop is gradually becoming stable now. You should just stay home and prepare for the exam. I'll be fine with my big brother and the others in the shop."

As she spoke, Lin Yunchu suddenly felt that she was too straightforward. What if Lu Yanzhou thought too much? After all, she was paid every day.

Thinking of this, Lin Yunchu quickly continued to explain: "That's not what I meant, I... just..."

Hearing that Lin Yunchu, who was always steady and decisive, was stuttering when he spoke, Lu Yanzhou raised the corners of his mouth and a hint of smile appeared in his eyes.

He raised his hand and waved towards Lin Yunchu, then opened his lips slightly and said, "I understand!"

He knew that Lin Yunchu, and even everyone in the Lin family, attached great importance to his imperial examination next year. He knew better than anyone the hardships of studying for ten years.

Lin Yunchu also hoped that he could have more free time to review his lessons, so except for the first few busy days in the snack shop, she did not say anything and let him help.

Later, even the Lin family members couldn't persuade him to come over to help, so Lin Yunchu had to find various reasons to let him come to the backyard house to rest for a while and review his lessons.

He understood it all in his heart, so Lin Yunchu didn't have to worry about him misunderstanding anything by saying this. He knew how good the Lin family was to him.

For some reason, when Lu Yanzhou said this, Lin Yunchu felt as if a feather was brushing against his heart, making him feel numb and tingling. He couldn't explain what he was feeling at the moment.

She only felt that Lu Yanzhou was looking straight into her eyes, as if he could see through her and knew exactly what she wanted to say.

"Cough cough..."

Lin Yunchu came back to his senses in an instant, thinking that there was something else he wanted to say just now. Since Lu Yanzhou agreed to review his lessons at home in the future, Lin Changan's matter could be put on the agenda first.

She first asked Lu Yanzhou what he thought, and then told the Lin family about it when she returned home in the evening.

"Actually, I have something else to tell you, and I wanted to ask what you think."

Upon hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Lu Yanzhou raised his eyebrows slightly. He wondered if Lin Yunchu had anything else that required such seriousness besides wanting him to stay home to study.

Lin Yunchu loosened his clenched fists, shook his head, and slightly relaxed his disturbed mind. He breathed a sigh of relief, then raised his head and spoke to Lu Yanzhou again:

"It's about Chang'an coming to the academy in town!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yanzhou already knew what Lin Yunchu wanted to tell him.

Everyone in the Lin family had discussed sending Lin Changan to the academy in town before, but at that time the Lin family had not yet bought a shop.

Later, he opened this snack shop. Now that the shop has gradually stabilized, it is natural for Lin Changan to go to the academy.

Master Li had said earlier that Lin Chang'an had a very good understanding and had almost learned all the basic knowledge from him.

If the Lin family intends to let Lin Chang'an go further on the road of imperial examinations, they can consider the academy in the town. After all, most of the teachers in the academy in the town are juren and gongshi.

If Lin Chang'an could be taught by the teachers in the town, he would definitely become a knowledgeable and polite person in the future.

Although he knew that the Lin family had never thought of making Lin Chang'an pass the imperial examination to become a scholar or juren in the future, Lin Yunchu said that he only wanted him to learn to read and understand.

Even if you become an accountant or a shopkeeper in the future, as long as you have your own skills and know what you want in life, it will be fine.

If he wanted to take the imperial examination, the Lin family would definitely support him. If he just wanted to live a simple life, the Lin family would not object.

When he first heard this, Lu Yanzhou was stunned for a long time. For a long time, he kept thinking about Lin Yunchu's words in his mind.

Finally, I understood her intention. She just wanted Lin Changan to see more and have more choices. After understanding what he wanted, he could live the life he wanted.

This open-mindedness impressed Lu Yanzhou. No one he knew had ever said such a thing. He had been studying since he was a child and knew that he would have to take the path of imperial examinations in the future.

And he must pass the final palace examination, enter the official career, and bring honor to the Lu family.

So all along, he has always had an invisible burden on his shoulders, pushing him forward, and he has never thought of retreating.

But Lin Yunchu's words made him realize that studying was not the only way, and perhaps the burden in his heart would not be so heavy.

For a moment, Lu Yanzhou felt slightly relieved.

"Brother Yanzhou, did you hear what I said?"

Lin Yunchu raised her hand and waved it slightly in front of Lu Yanzhou. She was a little puzzled. They were talking, but why did Lu Yanzhou seem to be distracted?

This is not like his usual temperament. Although Lu Yanzhou is a scholar, Lin Yunchu has also noticed it after spending these days with him.

In fact, Lu Yanzhou has very meticulous ideas in her mind. Every time she wants to do something, she can come up with the fastest and most useful method.
