May this scumbag husband, who favored his concubine over his wife, rest in peace.

The girls' school was initially supported by the Empress Dowager, and later the Empress also got involved. These two most noble women in the world directly elevated the girls' school to the same status as the official schools, and those who could teach there naturally had extraordinary status.

The women therefore looked forward to this day even more.

Bai Tong and the others counted on their fingers every day how many days were left before they could go to the girls' school, and they were all looking forward to it immensely.

In such a lively atmosphere, one person seemed out of place.

That was the only one, Aqing, who was not selected.

She was sixteen years old and believed that her abilities were no less than anyone else's, including Bai Tong's, but in the end, she was the one who was not selected.

She was naturally upset and unwilling to accept it.

However, since her friends were all so happy, Aqing didn't want to spoil the mood, so she quietly stepped aside.

When her friends came to check on her, she forced a smile and said she was fine.

At this moment, Bai Tong and the others were all immersed in their own excitement and did not notice the forced smile in her eyes.

It wasn't until five days later, when everyone had left in a lively atmosphere and only Aqing was left in the courtyard, that a gloomy expression appeared on her face that was incongruous with her age.

Meanwhile, Bai Tong and the others arrived at the girls' school without incident, and were so shocked that they were speechless.

Upon entering the grand gates of the girls' school, one is greeted by buildings arranged in a staggered pattern, bright and airy. The morning sunlight falls on the wooden floor, casting a soft, rounded glow. A gentle breeze stirs the gauze curtains, and the silver bells tinkle, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a fairyland.

The female official had arrived. Once everyone was present and they had gotten to know each other, she led them around the girls' school.

Meanwhile, Wen Yuanshu had just finished getting ready and left in her carriage.

When she arrived, Bai Tong and the others had just finished walking around the girls' school and couldn't help but sigh with admiration, clearly showing that they were very satisfied with the school.

Upon seeing her approach, everyone quieted down and looked at her with excitement.

Wen Yuanshu looked at their faces one by one and couldn't help but be infected by their joy.

"Everyone," Wen Yuanshu began, her voice gentle yet carrying a firm strength, "this is where we will put our skills to use in the future."

“Each of you possesses a skill, and you are all capable of supporting yourselves in this world. However, as women, I believe you understand our current situation best. In the future, I hope you will dedicate yourselves to women's education, generously impart your knowledge, and enable more women who are currently constrained to become independent and free.”

"Yes!"

Everyone was full of enthusiasm.

Seeing this, Wen Yuanshu said no more, leaving them at the girls' school to familiarize themselves with the environment, while she left with the female official.

She came today to check on everyone's condition, and after taking a look, she felt relieved.

"It seems we don't need to worry about this place," Wen Yuanshu said with a smile.

Those people were of one mind.

The female official nodded: "Let them get to know each other in the next few days. Once the enrollment process is over, we can give them some proper training."

It's not enough for them to be of one mind; we also need to teach them how to work together towards a common goal.

This was something the female official excelled at.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, sir." Wen Yuanshu nodded.

The female official smiled and shook her head.

This is serving the Empress Dowager; how can it be considered hard work?

Moreover, it was thanks to this job that she was able to leave the palace often.

The two parted ways, one going home and the other returning to the palace.

-

When Wen Yuanshu returned to the General's Mansion, she saw a carriage parked in front of the gate.

The person standing next to the carriage looked somewhat familiar.

“It’s that servant who’s with Young Master Wen,” Chunhua whispered.

Wen Yuanshu's eyebrows twitched slightly.

So that means... Wen Rang was in the car?

Upon seeing her appear, the servant stepped forward and bowed to her, saying, "Miss Wen."

Wen Yuanshu nodded, her gaze shifting to the carriage.

Sure enough, the car door opened, and sitting inside was Wen Rang.

Wen Rang was still dressed in white, but after not seeing him for many days, he seemed to be in better health than last time.
