Chapter 49 Xue Ke's Letter

In the days after that day, the students in the academy were in a state of excitement.

Later, Pei Huaizhen wrote in his own handwriting and had a pair of wooden plaques made and nailed to the pillars outside the lecture hall. Letter to:

Worry when the world is worried first, and rejoice when the world is happy later.

They and the words "dare to be the first in the world" on the top seem so appropriate, like a match made in heaven, so that every student passing by can't help but stop and look at it, which can stir up excitement in their hearts.

The impact of this incident does not stop there. For several days in the academy, Mei Xuezheng was smiling at everyone he saw. Even Chen Heng found it strange.

Outside the academy, students who came to deliver door stickers and wanted to enroll almost broke through the door bars. I even heard that later on, many people came from Jinling Chongzheng Academy.

Teacher Xu, who was in charge of this matter, could not stop the enthusiasm of the students despite repeated screening and persuasion. Seeing more and more new arrivals, Jiang Yuanbai was very worried about this, always feeling that he would become one of the people trying to persuade them to leave in a few days.

It doesn't matter if he has a lot of money. His family is relatively wealthy in Yangzhou, and they have both business and fertile land. He would come to study before, just following his father's arrangements. If he was really persuaded to quit this time, it would be in line with his original intention of being free and happy.

It also eliminates the need to take the exam to suppress Xue Biao's ambition.

The most relaxed people in the room were Chen Heng, Xue Biao and Xin Suzhao. Xue Biao still had the time to drag Chen Heng along to the outer door, watching the endless stream of visitors.

“There are so many people, I don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing.”

Although Chen Heng was surprised that Xue Biao would be worried about the academy, he was still quite optimistic.

"The gate is like a market place, not for profit. There is a lot of noise, not for private purposes."

"We are all people who are dedicated to studying. We should be more relaxed and listen to the arrangements of our teachers."

Xue Biao nodded and couldn't help joking: "Brother Heng said it well. We are reading the same book, why can't I say such a wonderful sentence."

Chen Heng raised his head pretending to be proud and said in agreement: "Otherwise, how can it appear that Brother Xue is a good judge of people?"

Xue Biao laughed on the spot and slapped Chen Heng on the shoulder. The students passing by didn't know what the two men were laughing at, and they all cast inquiring glances. Seeing this, Xue Biao hurriedly pulled Chen Heng back to the dormitory.

As soon as Jiang Yuanbai saw Chen Heng coming back, he immediately came over with books in hand to ask questions. Chen Heng did not refuse and happily pulled him aside to sit down and exchange their views.

Qian Dayou was attracted by their conversation and sat down with a stool in his arms. Xue Biao was sitting in his seat, and he could see his three classmates bathing in the sun from one side of his head.

Chen Heng sat in the middle, holding a book in one hand and pointing to a certain page on the page. Jiang Yuanbai opened his mouth and was talking about his thoughts. Qian Dayou leaned forward slightly, frowning in thought.

If only I could draw them on paper. Xue Biao's heart moved, and he suddenly understood the beauty of chess, calligraphy and painting. He suppressed the smile on his lips and took out a piece of letter paper and spread it on the table.

After the incident with Shopkeeper He, he didn't reply to Xue Ai for a few days, and the academy incident came one after another. At this moment, he was holding back a lot of words to tell his father.

Xue tadpole picked up the pen and concentrated on it, leaning over to write.

…………

…………

About ten days later, Xue Ai received a letter from her son at her home in Jinling.

He has been doing business outside for the past few days and has caught some cold. Xue Ai was resting in bed when her daughter Bao Qin came in with a letter.

Leaning on the bed, he took out his son's letter and read it carefully.

"Dad, what did my brother say in his letter? Did he mention me in the letter?"

Baoqin poked his head, seeming to be curious about the content of the letter.

Xue Ai smiled, and Xue Biao wrote two pieces of paper. The first one recorded the plaque given by Shopkeeper He and the court, so it was not convenient for her daughter to read it. Xue Ai took out the second one, which was full of his son's trivial matters in the academy. He motioned to Bao Qin to read it by himself.

"The family is like a market, not for profit. There is a lot of people, not for private purposes. Has my brother's talent and learning improved so much?" Baoqin hugged the letter and looked surprised.

Xue Ai knew that Bao Qin was influenced by him and also liked reading very much. He couldn't help but said: "No wonder your brother said in his letter that the academy is full of good teachers and friends. Qin'er, dad heard that there is also a place to teach girls to study in the back hall of their academy. Do you want to go?"

Xue Baoqin was surprised and happy, "Dad, can my daughter go too?" But after saying that, she said distressedly, "What about dad and mom? I don't want to be separated from my parents."

Xue Ai, who looked sickly, laughed loudly, took his daughter's hand, and said comfortingly: "It's not like our family doesn't have a yard in Yangzhou, why don't we go together? It also saves you from asking about Brother You at home every day."

"Really? Are our family going to Yangzhou together to find my brother?"

Xue Baoqin and Xue Biao have been close friends since childhood. Now that Xue Biao has left home to study, Baoqin misses Xue Ai more.

Xue Ai nodded. He made this decision suddenly and naturally had his own considerations.

One is because of shopkeeper He, and the other is because of what happened to the Xue family a few days ago.

The Xue family's shop in Jinling had a batch of money missing for no apparent reason some time ago. Xue Ai was in charge of foreign affairs, and everything had its origin and destination, which inevitably led to inquiries from the shopkeeper.

As a result, the other party said that the money had been transferred to the capital according to the mistress's wishes.

Xue Ai travels around the world all year round and has his own news channels. He knew what major events were happening in the capital, and he also knew that his sister-in-law sent the money to pave the way for the two brothers, Wang Ziteng and Wang Zisheng.

Xue Ai had nothing to say about this, he could only keep angry in his heart, which made him sick from anger.

During this period of recuperation, he also figured it out. Since his sister-in-law couldn't tolerate him, he would be restricted in every way if he stayed as the steward. Now his parents and elder brother have passed away, and his elder brother is not childless, and the family property is still surnamed Xue.

He might as well move his family to Yangzhou and raise Xue Ke and Bao Qin well. In Yangzhou, he can continue to collect rare treasures for the palace.

If the Xue family really changes in the future, Xue Zhen feels that as long as he can keep his lineage, even if he goes to the underworld, he will not be ashamed to see his parents and brothers.

"Then I will go to find my mother now, we are going to find my brother." Baoqin smiled and lifted her skirt, turned around and ran away.

Xue Zhen looked at his daughter's cheerful appearance, and he also felt a little happy in his heart. He hoped that in the future, it would be like his son said, a trapped bird escaped from the cage and found freedom.

…………

…………

Half a month later, Xue Ke received a letter from home one afternoon.

At that time, they had just finished their studies for the day, and their classmates were playing and resting in the room. Xue Ke sat in his seat, looking at the words in Xue Zhen's letter.

Suddenly, he raised his head and laughed, which confused Qian Dayou and others. Everyone gathered around and asked him if there was any good news.

Xue Ke pointed to the letter and said happily: "My parents are coming to Yangzhou."

This is really a happy event, Qian Dayou and others congratulated him.

Jiang Yuanbai's angle was the most tricky, and he said bluntly: "Doesn't that mean that my brother-in-law's sister is coming too?"

This guy still deserves a beating, Xue Ke put down the letter and pressed him under him.

When Chen Heng came back, he saw the two of them fooling around on the bed, and Qian Dayou and others followed suit.

After asking, he knew the reason. Chen Heng couldn't remember too much about Xue Ke's family, thinking that this matter was already in the book, so he naturally didn't think deeply about it.

When Xue Zhen brought his family to Yangzhou, it was already autumn.

Let me whisper this, in fact, Xue Baoqin is the most beautiful one in the Red Mansion. Qin Keqing is only beautiful in combination, but only Xue Baoqin is outstanding in appearance as certified by Mrs. Jia herself.

It’s just that the Mingyue Taoist in the TV series didn’t act out, what a pity.
