The old lady was stunned. âDidnât Scholar Tang say that thereâs no suitable school?â
âYes.â Shu Yu smiled and said, âItâs the third school that Scholar Tang mentioned last time. Iâve investigated it. The teacher of that school is indeed not bad. Although classes are temporarily suspended, it definitely wonât be for long. Lees register first. We can go directly when school starts.â
The old lady didnât know anything about such things. If Shu Yu said there was no problem, then there definitely wouldnât be a problem.
â0-0kay. Bring Dahu over to take a look first.â
Shu Yu then packed her things and prepared to leave. Lu Sanzhu had nothing to do, and he loved to join in the fun. He had never seen such a âhigh-classâ thing in his life, so he hurriedly followed her.
Shu Yu did not stop him. Her fatherâs legs were inconvenient, so it was good to have an elder around.
The two of them quickly went to the shop. Dahu was lying on the counter, reading with Lu Sanzhu.
When he saw Shu Yu coming over, he quickly ran over and said, âShu Yu, I recognized a few words today. Help me take a look and see if I wrote it correctly.â
As Dahu spoke, he pulled Shu Yu over, but Shu Yu did not reciprocate. âShu Yu?â
âIâm going to take you to see the teacher.â
Dahuâs eyes widened and he was slightly excited. âI-Iâm going to start studying?
âMore or less. Weâll talk about it after we meet the headmaster.â
Dahu nodded vigorously. âIâll go in and change my clothes.â
Lu Sanzhuâs eyes lit up as well. âHave you chosen a school?â
Shu Yu nodded and stood by the counter. She said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, âFather, Iâve asked around. The headmaster of Shuxian Academy is indeed familially related to the former county magistrate, but they are distant relatives. Moreover, the headmaster has a grudge against the former county magistrate. The former county magistrate could not be caught so easily without the headmasterâs contribution.â
Ever since Shu Yu learned about the fact that Meng Yunzheng and Lord Xiang knew each other, she simply asked him about the situation of the school to see if there would be any trouble entering the school.
Meng Yunzheng had told her that although Xiang Weinan had made a contribution to the former county magistrateâs incrimination, in order to reduce unnecessary danger, Xiang Weinan had used the alias âMaster Wenâ and did not reveal his true identity to the public.
Meng Yunzheng also said that Xiang Weinan had a good character, and there was no harm for Dahu to study at his place.
He obviously had a good understanding of Xiang Weinanâs character.
Shu Yu trusted Meng Yunzhengâs judgment, so she chose Shuxian Academy without hesitation.
Shu Yu couldnât tell the old lady about those things, but she still had to tell Lu Sanzhu so that he would know what to do.
âFather, these are all government secrets. Itâs fine as long as we know it in our hearts.â
âI understand. Since Shuxian Academy is a good place, then tell Teacher Wen properly. Iâm just worried because Dahu hasnât read for a few days. He might not be accepted by Master Wen.â
âItâs fine. The School of Books and Virtues is meant to enlighten students. Even if they donât know a word, as long as Teacher Wen thinks itâs okay, then thereâs no problem.â
As they spoke, Dahu also came out from inside.
Not only did the little fellow change into a clean and tidy scholar robe, but he also had a bag slung over his shoulder.
This bag was made for him by Daya. Not only did he have it, but Sanya also had it.
The two children liked it very much. Now, in Dahuâs bag, there was a notebook and a textbook. He came over excitedly and held Shu Yuâs hand.
âShu Yu, Iâm ready.. A-Are we leaving?
