However, the female school in the Fu family was not willing to accept too many students from other surnames, but they could not resist the face of their relatives and old friends. Even though the teacher from the female school was quite rigorous in accepting disciples, he eventually accepted twenty or thirty female students.

Of course, there are not only a few families who are moved, but the Fu family girl would have to spend 360 taels of silver for a year of Shu Xiu, which is not a small amount even in the capital.

Some families with slightly weak families almost cursed in person: The Fu family’s girls are robbing money, right? They only cost 100 taels of silver a year when they hire a female husband at home, and three or five girls in the family can go to school together. When you are the one girl who studies, you have to charge 360 ​​taels. This lion is so open-minded!

Someone in a house is discussing this with his own men for this matter. After all, the expense of 360 taels of silver a year is not a small amount. This is just a slaughter. When a girl goes to school, she has to get a carriage and a servant to pick her up? When she goes to the girls’ school, the daughters of those officials’ families are naturally extraordinary. Could it be that if you only wear two clothes for your daughter in four or five months, isn’t this making your daughter laughed at? There are also some small things such as the Four Treasures of the Study. After all, the cost of going to school for a year may not be much less than that of the slaughter, and it may cost more.

The person who was discussing this with his husband was not someone else, but the Bi family of Zhen Gongren, who was familiar with Mu Yun. Bi has a daughter who was just ten years old this year. She originally recognized some words with Bi family at home and read the four books she learned at home. Compared with ordinary girls, she is quite knowledgeable, but because Bi often comes to Wen's house, she has seen two girls in Wen's family. Needless to say, Little Pumpkin is the daughter of a third-rank official who is born there, even if she is full of books, she can be accepted.

Even the girl Yun, who was born slightly cold, was a few years younger than her daughter, but she was already a little more elegant. Although marriages are about equality these days, if the girls are really outstanding, they will often be slightly higher. Bishi just wanted her daughter to have more choices in lifelong affairs in the future, so she made up her mind to let her daughter go to this girl school.

But Lord Zhen didn't think so. Three hundred and six taels of silver a year. In the last five or six years, it was enough to buy a small house in a remote place in the inner city. Therefore Lord Zhen retorted: "Why is she a girl studying so many books for every family? Anyway, she will get married sooner or later, and she won't waste so much money!"

Bi was angry, but she knew that she could not fight against her own man at this moment, so she suppressed her anger and said slowly: "The master also said that my daughter will get married sooner or later in the future, but this marriage will be divided into high and low. Any brick in the capital can hit a third-rank official, not to mention the master, a fourth-rank general. Our daughter's origin is determined. If her own conditions are average, she can only find a marriage in the house of a general who is similar to the master in the future, but if she goes to school for two years, it will be different. Not to mention the general female students. The girls who came out of the house said that they could be higher than the next level of marriage. This time, this is the female student of the Fu family, and the queen taught it. The mountain leader of the girl student was named by Mrs. Yuehua. We don’t have to compare with the palace, just talk about your boss, Commander Wen. At the beginning, he was just a maid next to Mrs. Cheng Guo, but now they are all dignified third-rank imperial edicts, one level higher than me. If our daughter can study for a few years, not to mention what she can learn, wouldn’t it be nice to say that she is the future?”

"And think about it again, how close is the Fu girl's school to the Fu family's Minghe Academy, and how many young talents are there!" For the sake of her daughter, Bi also worked hard.

After saying so much, Bi Gongren continued to persuade her husband: "Although three hundred and sixty taels a year is not cheap, I asked Mrs. Wen. Mrs. Wen said that girls' schools provide free tea, snacks, pens, ink, paper, ink, ink, ink, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc. for girls. In this way, the money is not much."

Seeing that his man was still hesitating, Bi wanted to say something else, but the front yard manager sent someone to come over and said that he had something to go back. General Zhen stood up and said, "You let me think about it again." After that, he raised his foot and went out.

Do you have to think about it? If you think about it again, you may not have a chance. Although their family thinks that this is a lot of money, some rich families in the capital are willing to pay the money. Bi Gongren still begs Mu Yun for a long time to get such a place, so he naturally does not want to give up easily. So he sent someone to stare at General Zhen and invite him back as long as he finishes his work.

Unexpectedly, after half an hour, the maid came back and reported, "The master came out of the study and went to Aunt Chun's place."

Bi Shi was secretly resentful, lowered her head and thought, and called her close maid over and told her, "Go and tell Aunt Chun that if she can persuade the master to let the lady go to the Fu family's girl school, I will let her son study at Meng Academy in Wenhua Academy."

The maid exclaimed: "I often hear the master praise the second young master for his intelligence. Now I have already recognized many words before I can study seriously. If I let him study seriously, wouldn't I compare the eldest and third young masters?"

Bi Shi's lips smiled: "Although he was born to Aunt Chun, he is also my son after all. If he is really a promising person, what if I, the legitimate mother, can only help him?"

Although Bi said this, he thought to himself that Aunt Chun was a descendant of an official. Not to mention that her son’s qualifications were just average, even if he was a person with a very intelligent qualification, he would be at most a scholar in the future. Although the court did not explicitly stipulate that he would not be allowed to enter the official position after he committed an official, all scholars who participated in the examination of the government will be investigated strictly. Not to mention that your eighteen generations of ancestors, the next three generations will definitely be investigated.

This is also when I knew that Aunt Chun had some tricks, Bi still allowed her to enter the mansion as a good concubine. Because if she was a maid, although her status was a little low, the child's mother could only be her. The son of a good concubine could write her biological mother's surname on the identity card.

Bi curled his lips. Aunt Chun thought she was smart enough, but she didn't know that her way to turn over had been blocked by her. A child of six or seven could recite a few poems and read a few lines of "Three Character Classic"? Only a shallow person like Chun and a rough man like the master would think that this was amazing.

After receiving Bi's instructions, Aunt Chun was secretly happy. She seemed to have seen her son's future bright. However, after her son went to elementary school in the future, he would have to pay the money from the public. She did not dare to offend Bi's for the sake of her son.

Therefore, she advised softly: "Although the master thinks that the slaughter of the daughter's family is expensive for a year to go to school, the master should also think about it. The Fu family is a Qingliu family, and the Minghe Academy is even more famous all over the world, not much worse than the Imperial College and Wenhua Academy. Moreover, the female school also taught the Empress that many ladies go to school there. They spend 300 taels a year to get in touch with these Duke and Marquis families. When they think about it, do you think it is worth it or not?"

After she said this, General Zhen suddenly felt that the money should be spent, so he asked the servants to tell Bi that he agreed to the matter.

After receiving General Zhen's approval, Bi ordered his servants to prepare a few new clothes for his daughter. While preparing a generous gift, he took his daughter to Muyun's house early the next morning.

Mu Yun was still a little surprised when he heard that General Zhen agreed to let his daughter go to the Fu family to study. She probably knew the Zhen family’s family’s family’s family’s family’s family’s family’s income was only 10,000 taels a year. Three hundred and sixty taels are considered a considerable expense for the Zhen family.

But since she was willing, she naturally would not have any objections, so she asked someone to take her post and hand it over to Bi: "You just need to go and sign up with this post."

Bi took it with a smile: "Thank you, Mrs. Wen, but I heard that there is an entrance exam over there. I don't know if it's difficult?"

After hearing Bi's words, Mu Yun replied calmly: Just rest assured, you can definitely pass by the level of Ling Ye."

Bi knew that Mu Yun was not the kind of person who spoke empty words, and after hearing her promise, a big stone fell in his heart. The mother and daughter talked to Mu Yun here, and Bi said goodbye: "Since that's the case, then we, the mother and I, have to say goodbye first. There are still some things we used to use for school, so I will take my daughter back and prepare for it."

Mu Yun smiled and said, "Then I will leave you two. When you have time, just come over and play." After that, he took two pieces of silk from the maid and said, "I have someone find two pieces of brightly colored clothes. Take them back and make some clothes for Ling Yan to wear."

Bi glanced at him and saw that one of them was crabapple-red silk, and the other was light and thin gauze. Bi couldn't name it, but he knew it was a good thing. He felt a little embarrassed and refused: "Madam Wen is too polite. This time I have to thank you for helping you to arrange the matter. We haven't given a gift to my wife yet, but the lady has brought us things in turn. You can keep such a good thing for your eldest girl even if you can't use it yourself. This big girl in my house has a thick skin and no need for these good things."

Mu Yun smiled and said, "Look at what you said, what a cute and beautiful little girl, you are like a rough man. Her family is now at the age of a beautiful girl, so she should have dressed up more. If you don't use these materials quickly, the colors will be uncommon when they change the New Year, and they will be placed in the warehouse to attract dust. Why should I be like a heretic like me?"

"Since Mrs. Wen said that, I won't be polite to you. Daughter, come and thank Mrs. Wen." Mrs. Jiang said with a smile.

After hearing what her mother said, the little girl walked forward obediently and respectfully saluted Mu Yun and thanked her.

After the mother and daughter got on the carriage, Bi looked at her daughter stroking the gauze and couldn't let go and said with a smile: "Such thin and soft gauze should be a tribute thing. She has seen such a bright concubine's red color on weekdays, but it is rarely as good as the color. The roses on the top are also beautiful, and they save the effort of embroidery. When I go back, I will let you cut clothes for you."

Miss Zhen hugged her mother's arm and said with a smile: "Thank you, mom." Although she does not lack clothes, she has never worn such high-quality tribute materials, so she is extremely happy.

In fact, a family like the Zhen family is considered a normal fourth-rank official.

If Mu Yun's family had not supported the Duke Chengguo Mansion, Yong'an Marquis Mansion, and Shan Jingyan, it would have been difficult to accumulate so much wealth in just a few years. After all, the better the business is, the more likely it is to attract attention. If it weren't for the Duke Chengguo Mansion as a backer and working with Shan Jingyan and others, it would be different whether Mu Yun's money-making shops could run smoothly.
