With her status as the daughter-in-law of Li's family, Mrs. Li was like a fish in water among the ladies. Unexpectedly, she was choked back mercilessly by Chief Gu today.
I had long heard that Mr. Gu Shan had a bad temper and had a tough temper, and he euphemistically called him "upright and upright", which was indeed true.
Mrs. Li suppressed the unwillingness, shame and anger in her heart and said with a smile: "I said something inappropriate, please don't be upset, Mr. Gu! I also have a motherly heart!"
Gu Shanzhang’s expression did not change: “Which of the students who study in the academy has no parents? Who does not feel sorry for their parents when they are bullied? As the Shanzhang, I will act impartially and impartially. I will not let any student be wronged!”
Mrs. Li responded repeatedly: "Gu Shan has a noble character and is admirable."
This Mrs. Li is really noisy. The students have been sent here and they are still buzzing here non-stop. Is Lianchi Academy the Li Mansion? Didn’t you see the Xie family’s father and daughter still waiting there?
Mr. Ji, who had an upright temperament, frowned and reminded: "If you have nothing else to do, Mrs. Li, please go back first. When Shen Shizheng is about to leave school, you will come to take Miss Li back home."
Mrs. Li: "..."
Mrs. Li smiled coquettishly, finally stopped talking, and left.
Master Ji breathed a sigh of relief and complained to Master Gu in a low voice: "Every year when new students enter school, there are always such self-respecting ladies. Every student requires special care. How can we, Masters, teach students?"
Gu Shanchang sighed inaudibly: "That's all, just ignore it."
Master Ji was feeling quite depressed. He raised his eyes and raised his lips: "Mr. Gu Shan, Miss Xie San is here!"
…
As a master, it is only natural to prefer the students who get the first place in the examination!
What's more, Miss Xie San, who was born as a concubine, was bullied by her legitimate mother, which is really pitiful.
Empress Yu personally ordered that no announcement of Xie Yunxi's examination was allowed. Master Ji did not say anything, but he was still a little dissatisfied in his heart. He felt more sympathy for Xie Mingxi.
Mr. Ji, who has a serious face, is actually cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and has the most sense of justice.
Chief Gu Shan felt depressed when he thought about taking the exam for the past few days. Hearing Xie Mingxi's name, he suddenly became interested and looked carefully at Xie Mingxi, who was slowly approaching.
The pink shirt and white skirt show off the girl's charm. Her beautiful face is unforgettable.
As a woman, being born beautiful and outstanding is a gift from God.
He is proficient in all four books and five classics. He is good at poetry, poetry, arithmetic and miscellaneous studies. And that impassioned and brilliant policy statement is even more amazing!
There are such outstanding girls in this world!
Gu Shan's eyes were full of admiration.
"Student Xie Mingxi, I have met Mr. Gu Shan!" Xie Mingxi did not put on her clothes, but bowed and clasped her fists in the student salute.
Chief Gu's first impression of Xie Mingxi was really good. He made an exception and smiled: "Get up without any courtesy!"
"Thank you, Master Gu!" Xie Mingxi clasped his fists again and saluted Master Ji: "Student Xie Mingxi has met Master Ji!"
Master Ji looked at Xie Mingxi and asked bluntly: "Has Princess Yongning ever given you any trouble in the past few days?"
Xie Jun: "..."
This Master Ji is really upright!
Xie Jun coughed in embarrassment and responded first: "Master Ji, please rest assured, as a father, I will protect Ming Niang from any harm!"
Master Ji glanced at Xie Jun: "It is also right for Xie Junma to protect his daughter."
It's a pity that at first glance, he looks like a man with a weak husband!
Under Master Ji's mirror-like gaze, Xie Jun became increasingly embarrassed. He cleared his throat and said, "What Master said is true."
Master Gu stopped Master Ji with his eyes, and then said gently: "Now that we have sent you to the academy, Master Xie will leave on your own. There is a resting place in the academy at noon. Masters will also take good care of the students. Master Xie, just don't worry."
Gu Shanchang still knows how to speak.
Mr. Xie, it sounds much more pleasant to my ears than Xie Junma.
Xie Junshu raised his brows and said, "Well, thank you, Master Laoshan and all the masters!" Then he gently urged Xie Mingxi: "Ming Niang, hurry up and enter the school building."
Xie Mingxi smiled.
After watching Xie Mingxi enter the academy, Xie Jun turned around and left.
…
Lianchi Academy has a total of five levels. Every year, students who have completed their studies leave the academy and new students are welcomed.
Lianchi Academy was established by Empress Yu, using Queen Yu's private money. Students who were admitted to Lianchi Academy were not required to study for free. The masters' studies and the daily operation of Lianchi Academy were all provided by Yu. The queen gives money.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to regard Lianchi Academy as the private property of Queen Yu.
No matter how domineering Empress Dowager Li was, she would not be able to interfere in the affairs of the academy openly.
This time, Empress Yu was forced to give in due to filial piety and did not announce Xie Yunxi's appointment for the exam. Empress Dowager Li felt happy. She could not be too picky about palace affairs.
In the palace, few people know about the battle between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
For the time being, only Mr. Gu Shanchang Ji and a few others know about Xie Yunxi's taking the exam.
Xie Mingxi had been in Lianchi Academy for several years in her previous life and knew everything about the academy very well. At this time, she entered the academy dressed for the first time and was amazed at the spacious and neat school building.
The person leading the way was a senior student, who said with a smug look: "Our school building in Lianchi Academy has the same specifications as Songzhu Academy. It is spacious, transparent, bright and pleasant."
"Look, Haitang Academy is right in front."
Lianchi Academy is divided into five levels based on flowers. Freshmen study in Haitang Academy, in the second year they study in Lilac Academy, then in crape myrtle and magnolia, and in the fifth level there are peonies.
There are five crabapple schools in total, and several crabapple trees have been planted outside the school. It is March, and the flowering period has not yet arrived. The tall crabapple trees are full of green leaves, and the Haitang School is quiet and elegant.
Xie Mingxi thanked her with a smile: "Thank you, senior, I'll just go."
The girl who was called Senior Sister was not very old. She looked about 12 or 13 years old, with a round face, cheerful and talkative. She smiled and said, "That's fine. Then I will go back to school. My name is Mu Zi." Qi, when I get free time in the future, I will come and talk to you."
The name of the number one freshman is really resounding.
As a student, one is judged based on knowledge. No matter how he comes from a legitimate family, he should be ranked in the back row. Therefore, this Mu Ziqi is quite friendly to Xie Mingxi.
Xie Mingxi smiled and said: "Okay, I will definitely find my senior sister in the future."
Mu Ziqi walked away with brisk steps.
Xie Mingxi walked under the crabapple tree and stopped to admire it for a moment.
"Thank you sister!" a delighted girl's voice said: "Why don't you go in?"
It's Lin Weiwei.
Xie Mingxi turned around and smiled at Lin: "Sister Lin is here too."
Lin Wei walked forward with a smile: "I saw you stopping under the tree from afar. Let's go in together and sit down first." He naturally took Xie Mingxi's hand.
Xie Mingxi nodded with a smile, and walked into the school building with Lin Weiwei.
