The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Chapter 164: Girls' School Plan Put on Hold

Song Shengfu had just replied to Mrs. Luo's letter and had it delivered to the Luo residence when Kang Ge'er arrived home.

Kang Ge'er, who had just arrived home, originally wanted to quietly go back to the yard to take a nap, but was caught by Han Yang.

Han Yang asked Kang Ge'er to stand on the cross stake and stared at him coldly with his eyes.

Kang Ge'er felt guilty when he was stared at, and sweat broke out on his forehead.

"I heard that you had a stomachache in the palace?"

Kang Ge'er shuddered when he heard his master's cold and calm voice.

"Yes, yes."

Han Yang looked at the ignorant Kang Ge'er and sighed in his heart.

"Did I eat something wrong, or was there something added to it?"

Kang Ge'er was stunned by what he said. He only knew that he had eaten something wrong and had been running to the toilet all night. He had never thought about these things.

To be a general, one must not only have superb martial arts skills, but also have keen perception.

"I do not know."

Kang Ge'er answered with difficulty. He had been squatting for half an hour and his legs were shaking and he couldn't bear it anymore.

"Okay, come down!"

Han Yang turned and walked into the house. Kang Ge'er didn't expect that today would end so soon. He felt relieved and secretly happy.

He still had a trick up his sleeve and was deliberately being so weak just now.

Han Yang could see the little tricks of the boy behind him.

"Follow!"

"I'm coming!"

Kang Ge'er followed happily, and there were many bottles and jars on the table in the room.

Han Yang turned around with a malicious look on his face.

"We'll add an extra lesson later to train your recognition ability."

Kang Ge'er's alarm bells rang, this was definitely not an easy course.

Sure enough, in the next few days, Kang Ge'er took the medicine while recognizing the "good things" prepared for him by Han Yang.

After Han Yang watched Kang Ge'er run to the toilet again, he felt his teeth itching when he thought of the man who had shown off and ridiculed him the other day.

Just wait, the apprentice he teaches is not a coward!

Just as Song Shengfu was waiting for the approval documents for the girls' school, Duan Jingan brought back bad news.

"What?! You won't approve it?"

Song Shengfu was dumbfounded. What did they mean by this didn't meet the standards of a girls' school?

Duan Jing'an nodded silently. His application was rejected and the Ministry of Rites did not approve it.

"Is there something wrong with our class?"

Song Shengfu was a little worried, and Duan Jingan quickly shook his head.

"No, I had a verbal conflict with two officials from the Ministry of Rites a few days ago. I guess that's why they stopped the document."

Song Shengfu didn't know about this yet, so she asked Duan Jing'an to explain it in detail. Duan Jing'an wanted to get away with it by making jokes.

"If you don't tell me, I'll ask someone else!"

Duan Jing'an had no choice but to tell him what happened before.

Song Shengfu was so angry that she secretly scolded the two old bastards for being so shameless as to bully the child.

"Why didn't you tell me about this? If you had told me earlier, I would have..."

Song Shengfu paused at this point. What could she do? She couldn't do anything.

Duan Jing'an may also know this, so he would not tell his family many things that happened outside, and always reported good news but not bad news.

"Alright, let's put this aside for now. If they refuse to approve it, forget it. I'll think of a solution. Don't worry about it. You're busy enough with your official duties on weekdays."

Duan Jing'an knew his mother was concerned about him. "I also want to do something for you. I'll ask the Ministry of Rites."

Seeing that he was serious, Song Shengfu ignored him. She was still thinking about what to do about this matter.

Regardless of how much money they gave, the two people from the Ministry of Rites were clearly targeting them, so even if they gave money, it would undoubtedly be humiliating to themselves.

If this gets reported, it will inevitably be charged with bribery.

Now it's troublesome...

Song Shengfu didn't expect that the spark of hope for her plan would be extinguished at the very beginning.

As a result, the plan for the girls' school had to be shelved again. Song Shengfu was angry and didn't know who to vent her anger on, so she turned around and went to the ancestral hall.

All the servants in the house were driven out, and only vague and agitated voices could be heard coming from the ancestral hall.

After venting her anger, Song Shengfu threw a large bundle of yellow paper into the fire niche, then clapped her hands and went out.

Only the flickering candlelight remained in the ancestral hall, and it seemed as if the person was a little exasperated.

Is Song Shengfu anxious? Actually, she is not anxious at all, but she is a little frustrated.

So when Song Shengfu had nothing to do, she would listen to some songs, read some storybooks, or chat about gossip at home, and she was very happy.

During this period, Shen Xianli was also dismissed from his post, and was still sent to a remote area, but it was very close to the capital, and the round trip was only a day's journey.

So as soon as he took up the position, Shen Xianli took up the post immediately.

Sister Wei is fine. After feeling down for a day or two, she goes to class and plays.

But I didn't expect Xuan Ge'er to be a little crybaby. He lay in his grandmother's arms and cried breathlessly, and even refused to eat out of spite.

Then, like a resentful man in the boudoir, he would start crying whenever he thought about it. It was only when Kang Geer took a leave of absence and said he wanted to take him to eat the roast goose and willow wontons that he had told him about earlier that he felt better after they had a walk outside.

"Xuandi, if you listen to me, I will take you there next time."

Kang Ge'er rubbed his bloated belly and spoke with satisfaction.

Xuan Ge'er nodded with red eyes, indicating that he would be obedient and would go again next time. One of his hands was held by Kang Ge'er, and the other hand was holding a candied haws.

Since they wanted to play, the children all came out together. At this time, Wei Jieer was looking at some small things in the jewelry store. Kang Geer and Xuan Geer were waiting outside bored.

Sister Wei looked around curiously. Although the jewelry outside was not as exquisite as the ones sent from the mansion, they had more styles.

Whenever Sister Wei saw something she liked, she would ask the steward to take it out. Today, the item she brought out was Yu Nan, so she ordered the servants to hold it.

When she saw a sparkling hairpin, Sister Wei was attracted to it.

"Let me take a look at this."

The steward nodded and bowed as he took it out. Today he had met an important customer, so he had to treat him well.

When she took it out, Sister Wei felt that it was a little dazzled. There were too many beads on it, making it look a bit heavy and tacky.

As she was examining it carefully, a hand reached out and snatched it away. Because the hairpin was quite long, the tip almost scratched her eye.

After a cry of surprise, Sister Wei retreated a bit before she managed to hide. She saw a girl with a long face and slanted eyes holding a hairpin and looking at her, while she was talking to a little girl beside her.

"Hey, I took this in my hand first. If you want to see it, just tell me and I'll give it to you. Why bother snatching it? You almost scratched my eye."

Sister Wei was a little angry. If she hadn't dodged quickly, her face might have turned bloody.

The girl with the long face ignored it and continued chatting and laughing with the people around her.

Perhaps because he saw that Sister Wei was in a bad mood and was surrounded by many servants, he was afraid of offending someone difficult to deal with, so the younger one nudged Ma Bing'er, who was still talking, with his shoulder.

Ma Bing'er then looked over with an impatient look on her face, then said nonchalantly, "It's not scratched, why are you making such a fuss? I'm so annoyed, let's go over there."

As he said this, he took the hairpin and prepared to walk to the side...
