Zhao Yiming said he would be busy, and he was really busy. For a whole month, Tian An hardly saw him.
He went to the college before dawn and without having breakfast. At noon, he asked the noodle shop in front of the college to deliver a bowl of noodles to the college, which was his lunch.
Every day he would come back after dark and after dinner time. After coming back, he would not disturb the kitchen again. He would let Hong Lei go to the kitchen to get some food to heat up and then continue reading.
After Tian An found out, he asked several cooks in the mansion to take turns getting up early every day to prepare breakfast for him.
At noon, the cooks were asked to prepare and pack the food in advance and have Hong Lei deliver it.
Meals were reserved for him in advance in the evening, and the cook was on duty so that the food would be heated up and delivered to him whenever he came back.
It was approaching November and the weather was getting colder. Tian An knew how difficult the work of the cooks was, so he gave them extra money every month as a reward.
The cooks were rewarded and paid more attention to Zhao Yiming's food. Even if he went out early, he could still have a hot breakfast every day.
The nutrition of three meals a day was guaranteed, so no matter how hard Zhao Yiming studied every day, he did not lose any weight.
In two months, the dormitories, classrooms and canteens of Tian An's college were built.
Mr. Han and Tian An discussed it and decided to let the children move in first.
After all, they later bought a lot of children, and the original primary school was really too crowded, and it was really inconvenient to clean up the wooden boards and beds every morning and evening.
Besides, the weather is getting colder, and we can’t always let the children make their beds on the floor. It would be bad if they develop illnesses.
After spending ten days arranging the tables, chairs, beds, and all the necessities of life in the school, they chose the fifteenth day to prepare for the children to move in.
At the same time, a simple founding ceremony was prepared for the new college.
As a result, the busy people didn't remember until the day before the founding ceremony that their college didn't have a name yet!
Tian An thought for a moment and said, "Let's call it Hope College!"
Everyone thought about it for a moment, then decided, "Okay, let's call it Hope College."
Zhao Yiming took a rare day off to attend the founding ceremony of Hope College, but he always carried books with him wherever he went, and opened them to read whenever he had free time, fully demonstrating to Tian An the concept of racing against time.
Gu Jinyan and the others teased Tian An when they saw him, "Young Master Zhao is so hardworking, he's determined to win next year's imperial examination. An An, just wait and see!"
Tian An was confused. "Waiting? Waiting for what?"
A few of them smiled without saying anything, looking at her with ambiguous expressions and making faces, which made her feel uneasy.
Soon the founding ceremony began. Mr. Han, as the first president, came to the stage to speak, and then personally wrote the plaque for the college.
Then the founder of the college, Tian An, came to the stage and gave a passionate speech to encourage the children to work hard, study hard and change their destiny.
He also taught the children to sing "I Believe" on the spot, which immediately livened up the atmosphere.
It was only at this time that the teachers they invited found out that the founder of Hope Academy was actually a woman, and she was so young.
Finally, there are donations to the college from Tian An’s friends.
When they learned that Tian An had taken in these poor children and built a college specifically for them, they were afraid that Tian An would be short of money, so they sent him books, clothes, and food. They prepared everything they could think of.
Tian An asked Chunxi to take the gift list to the stage and read it out in front of everyone.
She wants the children to remember who helped them in the past, and not to forget their roots when they become successful in the future, and to always have a grateful heart.
The children did not disappoint her. After reading the gift list, they all bowed to express their gratitude towards where Gu Jinyan and the others were sitting.
The founding ceremony ended and Hope College officially announced its successful establishment.
After the children started class, Tian An and others watched them outside the school.
When the children saw them watching outside, they were all so excited and serious.
At noon, everyone had lunch with the children in the cafeteria before Tian An left with his friends.
Several people rode in the same carriage, chatting and laughing, and after returning to the city, they went to their own hot pot restaurant to eat mutton hot pot together.
After eating a hot mutton hotpot, my hands and feet that had been frozen in the carriage immediately warmed up.
We ate and talked until it got dark, and then we reluctantly went home.
Before leaving, Kristy Wu pulled a few good sisters together and said that they must get together again before the New Year.
But she didn't expect that they would meet again so soon.
The next day, the news that the emperor and empress would go to the Huguo Temple in person to fast and pray for the people, praying for good weather and peace in the coming year, spread throughout the streets and alleys.
The Emperor and Empress's route happened to pass by their hot pot restaurant. So, they all tacitly came early in the morning with their maids to reserve seats and watch the grand event.
However, although they occupied the best viewing position, they could only see the magnificent roof of the emperor and empress's carriage and the majestic royal procession.
After the emperor and empress's procession passed, they looked at their good sisters who were lying on the windowsill, and they all smiled at each other.
"Haha! I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon."
…
Three days later, the Emperor and Empress returned from their prayers. With the experience from the previous time in mind, Tian An did not go to the restaurant this time. Instead, like ordinary people, he took his two maids to the road that the Emperor's carriage must pass and waited on both sides of the road to see the Emperor's face.
Soon, the officers and soldiers blocking the way on both sides began to prepare for battle. Gradually, cheers from the people in front came, and then everyone spontaneously shouted, "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, a thousand years live the queen, a thousand thousand years live the queen..."
After a while, the emperor slowly passed in front of Tian An. The emperor greeted the people with dignity but kindness. When he saw Tian An, he treated her equally without even giving her a glance, as if he had never seen her before.
"Let's go! We're going back." After the entire imperial carriage had passed, Tian An left with two maids.
As soon as I turned around, I saw a few cold-faced men in tight clothes walking out of the alley.
The tall man in the lead glanced at the three of them inconspicuously, his gaze fixed on Tian An. Just as he took a step forward, he felt a gust of wind passing by, and suddenly two more men appeared in front of Tian An to protect him.
Jing Yu said expressionlessly, "May I ask what may I do for you, Excellency?"
The leading man on the opposite side ignored him, silently retracted his foot, raised his hand and bowed to Tian An, saying: "Excuse me, young lady, are you the Lord of Anping Township?"
Tian An hesitated slightly, waved to Jingyu and Jifeng, and the two of them stopped and made way, but they still stood on Tian An's left and right, without relaxing their defense at all.
