Chapter 914 The daughter of an aristocratic family visits the Scholarly Courtyard
"Okay, then let's not make too many changes, show up in front of them with our true faces, and let them see what we do on a daily basis."
"Well, that's what I think too. In addition to watching us study, it would be best to have the opportunity to see our daily work."
"But my job involves confidentiality, so I'm afraid that won't work."
"It's okay, you can look at me."
…
After reading the class schedule and worksheet, setting every detail, deciding on the participation points one by one, a "Visiting Book for the Daughter of a Family" was freshly released.
When that day came, they were anxious and uneasy, fearing that if they did something bad, they would lose the face of the girls in Shuxiangyuan.
Yes, they do not represent themselves, but all the women in Shuxiangyuan.
Similarly, all the wealthy ladies from aristocratic families who were invited were actually very nervous and uneasy.
"What do you think Shuxiangyuan is like?"
A girl said: "As long as the academy looks like this, what else can it look like?"
"But...but there are female students inside."
"Isn't that different? Is it possible that if there are female students, there will be no husbands and they will stop studying?"
"But...men and women are not intimate."
…
Among those traveling together, Cui Tongxia sat in the crowd, looking out of the carriage and did not participate in the discussion.
Regarding Shuxiangyuan, she felt that she might know more than others. After all, her fiancé had stayed there.
In Yao Anhong's letter, Shuxiangyuan is a very beautiful place, not only with beautiful scenery, but also with many capable people and strangers.
Of course, due to different personalities, some capable people may also be considered crazy in the eyes of others.
But these people have the ability to change the entire world.
Not everyone can become Mr. Gongshu, but when everyone comes together, they can become half a Mr. Gongshu.
"Sister Tongxia?"
When she heard someone calling her, Cui Tongxia turned around and found that it was a girl named Yu.
This girl has always been difficult to deal with, especially after she got engaged to Yao Anhong, Miss Yu became even more bitter and said some embarrassing words from time to time.
"Miss Yu, it seems I just said last time that we are not familiar with each other." Cui Tongxia had a smile on her lips, polite but distant.
Miss Yu's expression froze: "Oh, sister Tongxia is still angry? I know I was wrong. I was in a bad mood that day, that's why I said those words... Good sister, please forgive me!"
"But I don't want to forgive you."
Miss Yu felt suffocated. She didn't expect Cui Tongxia to be so disrespectful to her and say this in front of so many people.
Isn’t it just that he comes from a better background?
What's so great about it?
If she hadn't been the daughter of the Minister of Industry, did she think she could be engaged to the eldest grandson of the Yao family?
Yao Anhong became a Hanlin scholar at a young age, which is indeed enviable. Some people may not be able to reach the fifth rank even if they serve as officials for a lifetime.
When he arrived, he stayed in Beijing as soon as the imperial examination was over, under his uncle's command, and then entered the Imperial Academy, and then...
When she thought of the fiancé she had engaged, Miss Yu wished she could replace him with Cui Tongxia.
Cui Tongxia turned her head, disdainful to argue with her any longer.
Originally, she was also worried about the friendship she had when she was a child, and kept tolerating to Miss Yu. But one day she couldn't stand it any more, and she vented her feelings in a letter to Yao Anhong.
As a result, Yao Anhong wrote back and said: If you want to refuse, just refuse, it's no big deal. The less you know how to refuse, the more likely she will be.
Cui Tongxia: Aren’t you afraid that I am discrediting her?
Yao Anhong: You are my fiancée, and I will only stand by your side.
Cui Tongxia's heart suddenly felt sweet.
He has never met Miss Yu, and he doesn't care who Miss Yu is. What he cares about is his future wife.
Just saying this was enough to make her happy.
She seemed to understand why people around her looked envious when they heard who she was betrothed to.
Perhaps, what some people envy is that Yao Anhong has made facial features at a young age and has a bright future, but what they don't know is that he is mature, steady, gentle and considerate, which makes people feel particularly at ease.
Her mother told her: "Princess Chong made a rule when she was in the Yao family. She did not allow the men of the Yao family to take concubines. If a man doesn't mention it after you enter the house, you should pretend that you don't know. But if one day, the second young master Yao moves.
With your mind, you can be a little naughty and lose your temper, but you have to stop it when it suits you."
"You have to understand that although Princess Chongqin has set the rules, she is now Princess Chongqin and is no longer Mrs. Yao."
…
The implication is that Gu Qingling has remarried. Although she still has a great influence on the Yao family, if Cui Tongxia really gets into trouble with her grandson, there is no telling whose side they will take.
Maybe, people don't want to get involved in this matter, so they are pretending to be confused and trying to get along with each other.
If Second Young Master Yao is willing to grow old with her, that would be a good thing, but if he doesn't want to, the worst thing is that she will have a few more people to serve her. As long as she sticks to her duties, no one can surpass her.
At that moment, Cui Tongxia's heart was lost again.
She really wanted to write to Yao Anhong and ask: After I marry you, will you take concubines?
Although the two of them were communicating with each other at this time, and they were very affectionate, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
Even when her father married her mother, didn't he say all kinds of sweet words?
But in the end...
Finally, there was a bastard in the family.
Cui Tongxia was upset and the carriage stopped.
It turns out that Shuxiangyuan has arrived.
She got out of the carriage with the help of the maid, and her eyes were filled with lush greenery.
Her future sister-in-law, Yao Anling, stood in the crowd, wearing a bright red skirt, with a face as white as jade, almond-shaped eyes like shooting stars under her eyebrows, and jet-black silk hair. She looked so pretty and dazzling, with a strong momentum.
The girls handed over greeting cards and chatted with Yao Anling one after another.
Yao Anling counted the number of people and introduced her female relatives to everyone. They were all female students from Shuxiang College and came from various schools of thought.
The girls who were prominent at the People's Speech Conference that day were not there. Cui Tongxia could understand that a person like Mr. Gongshu must have important things to do, and it was impossible for him to abandon his important work and come to entertain them as a bunch of idle guests.
Although Fan Chunyi and Liao Yunmei are not here, the female students here seem to be not weak either. They all have their own jobs and are working part-time.
"I'm good at arithmetic, and my future goal is to join the arithmetic team of a scientific research institute."
"I like farming, and my goal is to become an agricultural apprentice at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences of the Ming Dynasty Research Institute, just like my eldest cousin."
"my goal is……"
…
They have a clear path in life, know what they want to do in the future, are full of ambition, and are high-spirited.
Cui Tongxia listened to them one by one with yearning in her heart.
Probably, there is no one who doesn’t yearn for the rich ladies of the aristocratic families who can come today?
Others still have a chance, but they don't know that they are engaged and are about to marry into the Yao family. Do they still have this chance?
It is said that the mother-in-law has a strong temperament and cannot tolerate a less capable daughter-in-law.
Mrs. Yao Er is famous for her ability. It is said that she is the one who has the most say in Jinling.
Even her mother taught her to stay away from the limelight of her mother-in-law, to be low-key when entering the house, and to learn to bow her head to show weakness.
Cui Tongxia looked at the graceful Yao Anling in the crowd with a sweet smile, and seemed to be able to foresee some shadows of her mother-in-law - like mother, like daughter. Looking at the appearance of her future sister-in-law, she could probably guess what kind of temperament her mother-in-law was like.
The pressure on her heart suddenly increased.
Yao Anling also noticed this future sister-in-law, and when their eyes met, she smiled lightly at her.
She didn't have much contact with Cui Tongxia, but since it was her brother who picked him, she would give him a little more face.
