Ye Taohua demonstrated each move from the side, and her punches were already making a sound. "Second Aunt, Brother Ming is highly respected at the academy, so you can rest assured!"
Not only is he highly respected, but no one knows who Bai Yuanshou is, or who Ming Gege's senior brother is. Anyway, many people in the academy want to get closer to Ming Gege.
Some girls even deliberately take detours just to catch a glimpse of Ming-gege.
However, I won't tell my second aunt about these things.
As Miss Guan's belly grew larger, she could no longer go to Shuzhou. She also did not want anyone from the Ye family to stay and take care of her, so she asked Ye Panjiu to send her to Bailu Academy.
There is a doctor named Gu who can take care of things at any time.
The Ye family has many animals. They gave Ye Santian the key and asked him to help feed the animals every day, still paying him forty coins a day.
After everything was ready, all three carriages set off.
The last carriage was driven by Ye Lei, and Liu Shi, Wang Jiao, Ye Cuihua, and Hao'er and Nannan were sitting in the carriage.
The middle carriage was driven by Ye Erniu, and Sun Shi, Ye Panjiu, Ye Guihua, Ye Taohua, and Ye Ling'er were sitting in the carriage.
The first carriage was driven by Ye Daniu, and Old Man Ye and Old Lady Ye were sitting in the carriage.
Everyone's face was beaming with smiles.
Mrs. Sun was a little uneasy. "Oh dear, I don't know if what we're wearing will be appropriate in Shuzhou?"
Ye Panjiu patted her hand, "It's okay, if you don't like it, just buy a ready-made dress in Shuzhou."
Sun's eyes sparkled. "Oh my, there must be so many people from Shuzhou, and so many delicious things I've never seen or tasted before!"
Ye Panjiu nodded, "That's right."
She had never seen it before and was very curious.
The carriage set off in the morning and arrived at Bailu Academy about half an hour later.
After getting off the carriage, Madam Sun headed towards Bailu Academy.
Grandma Ye looked at the steps and sighed, "I also want to see my good grandson."
Ye Panjiu pulled Sun Shi aside and said to Heng Tong, "Please go to the academy and ask her to come see us tomorrow."
Heng Tong nodded, his steps so fast they were almost invisible.
Ye Taohua immediately followed.
She wanted to see if she could touch the hem of Hengtong's clothes now.
Heng Tong was not familiar with Bailu Academy, so he stopped and waited for Ye Taohua to lead the way.
Ye Taohua lost her balance and bumped directly into Heng Tong, "Ouch!"
She covered her nose, which had hurt from the bump. How could her sister Hengtong be so different from her mother? Hengtong was so tough!
My mother is so soft.
"You still need to practice more." Heng Tong raised his chin, gesturing for her to lead the way.
Ye Taohua obediently led the way, though she was suffering inwardly, she didn't say a word.
Upon arriving at the study in the courtyard, Ye Taohua felt no burden at all and poked a hole in the window paper with her finger to look inside.
After looking around and not seeing the head of the courtyard, I pushed open the door and went inside.
Heng Tong: "..."
"Ah!" Ye Taohua screamed.
Bai Yuanshou burst into loud laughter, "Hahahaha!"
Ye Taohua scratched her head awkwardly, "Greetings, Headmaster, why are you standing by the door?"
Bai Yuanshou glanced at the window hole next to his head and said, "Just to scare you people who don't know how to knock properly."
How come Ye Panjiu's own daughter is so different from her calm and composed personality?
Ye Taohua wished she could disappear into the ground right now.
Heng Tong didn't recognize Bai Yuanshou and didn't say anything.
Bai Yuanshou looked at her and raised an eyebrow, wondering why this person looked somewhat familiar.
Ye Ming kept reading his book and writing, completely unaware of what was happening around him.
A girl next to him, who looked about the same age as Ye Taohua, looked up in his direction.
Bai Yuanshou stroked his beard. "What's up?"
Ye Taohua then remembered the important matter, "We are going to Shuzhou for the New Year. Everyone is at the foot of the mountain and wants to see Brother Ming."
The girl reached out and covered Ye Ming's book.
Ye Ming impatiently pulled the book out, wanting to continue reading.
"Your family is here to see you."
Ye Ming then stood up, turned around and saw Ye Taohua, "Really?"
Ye Taohua nodded, "The whole family is waiting for you."
Bai Yuanshou waved his hand, "Go quickly."
Ye Ming took off running towards the foot of the mountain.
The girl watched his retreating figure and pouted.
Ye Taohua easily overtook Ye Ming, saying, "Brother Ming, you're so slow!"
Ye Ming was panting heavily from running.
It felt like a gust of wind had blown by, and Hengtong was already in front of Ye Taohua, moving at lightning speed.
He still doesn't know who this is.
Ye Taohua ran quickly, trying her best to catch up.
Ye Ming had a hard time catching up.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Ye Ming was so exhausted that he could hardly breathe.
Sun stroked his head with heartache, "Ming'er, do you sit all day? How come you're so weak?"
Ye Erniu, standing to the side, also expressed his concern, saying, "Good health is truly the most important thing. You should learn from Tao Hua in this regard."
Ye Taohua patted her chest triumphantly, "Exactly!"
Ye Ming clutched his chest and shook his head. "I was too hasty and ran too fast. Dad, Mom, don't worry about me."
Grandma Ye walked over with a worried look on her face and touched Ye Ming's arm. "You've grown taller and thinner. You can't eat less."
Ye Ming opened his arms and hugged Grandma Ye. "Grandma, I've eaten a lot."
He then hugged Old Man Ye, Mrs. Sun, Ye Erniu, and Ye Daniu one by one.
Ye Panjiu patted his shoulder; this second nephew was almost as tall as her.
"How have you been at the academy lately? Let your family know if you need anything."
Ye Ming smiled brightly, "Auntie, I study all day long at the academy, I don't lack anything."
Ye Erniu put his arm around Ye Ming's shoulder and said, "Kid, tell me honestly, have you been getting close to any girls?"
Ye Ming scratched his head, realizing he could have simply said no.
But thinking of the girl who was always sticking to him in the study, it didn't seem like there was no such thing as no girl.
But it's not someone he wants to get close to.
Madam Sun was startled and patted Ye Erniu, "What are you saying? We should wait at least two more years before considering marriage."
Ye Ming shook his head, "Mother, I don't want to get married. I want to pass the imperial examinations and become a Grand Secretary in the Hanlin Academy!"
Madam Sun raised her eyebrows. "What's a Hanlin scholar? And what's a Grand Secretary? Are they impressive?"
Ye Ming smiled and said, "Impressive! I'll invite Lady Feng Haoming to my mother, grandmother, and aunt's house later!"
The true Third-Rank Lady Ye Panjiu smiled brightly, "Ming'er is really amazing, your aunt has high hopes for you."
If it weren't for the mention of Lady Haoming, she wouldn't even remember her imperial edict.
Mrs. Sun and Old Mrs. Ye exchanged a glance and asked bluntly, "Is there money to be made?"
Ye Ming nodded, "The imperial court pays us money every month as a salary. First-rank imperial ladies also receive rewards such as land."
Mrs. Sun's eyes lit up. "He truly is a fine son of mine, so amazing!"
She spoke as if Ye Ming had already earned her the title of First-Rank Lady of the Righteous Realm.
Ye Erniu pointed to himself, "Ming'er, what about your father, me?"
Ye Ming choked for a moment, "I'll buy Dad some good wine to drink then."
Ye Erniu was delighted to hear this, "Alright!"
Ye Lei pulled Wang Jiao forward, "Ming'er."
Ye Ming called out to the two of them, "Big brother, sister-in-law."
