Chapter 287 Go and ask my fifth sister
Hearing the children talking, Qian Qiong also looked over there and said with a smile: "This child has been here for several days."
"Aunt Qiong recognizes him?!" Baoya was quite surprised.
Qian Qiong shook her head. "How could I recognize him? I just know that he studied with an old scholar here."
"He's still studying!" Yun Yue's eyes widened in disbelief. "How much hatred does Zhou Cuihua have for money that she has to throw it at a useless little Chen Chengcai!"
Yunhua: "Maybe they don't have the money to send him to Mr. Xiao Qi, so they found a scholar in town to teach him."
Hearing their discussion, Qian Qiong asked, "Do you know each other?"
Baoya frowned and said, "He's from our village."
"Oh," Qian Qiong understood, then shook her head, "I'm afraid this child won't be able to learn it."
"What do you mean?" Zhao Zhilan asked.
"That old scholar is notorious for his stubbornness and pedantry. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so old and still a scholar. Now that the emperor has issued a new decree allowing women to take the imperial examinations, he still stubbornly opposes it. What a conservative old man."
Qian Qiong said with a look of regret: "I don't know what this child's mother was thinking. Sending the child here is a waste of time and money."
She was right.
However, as for that good-for-nothing Chen Chengcai, it would be useless even if the emperor taught him personally. He was just a pile of mud that was too thin to be plastered on the wall.
Baoya, Yunhua and Yunyue looked at each other, and all three of them covered their mouths and laughed.
When she returned home that night, Yunhua started packing her luggage. She packed her clothes and belongings and put them in a small bag.
Yunyue and Baoya walked around her room, helping her clean up.
Finally, after cleaning up, Yunyue sat on the edge of Yunhua's bed and sighed.
Baoya came over and sat down next to her: "Fourth sister, what's wrong with you?"
Yunyue raised her finger and pointed at Yunhua's small bag: "Baoya, upstairs is the room for the five of us brothers and sisters, and it's almost half empty in the blink of an eye."
After she said this, Baoya also realized it.
The eldest brother was at the academy in town, the third sister was about to go there, and the second brother had gone to the master's paradise. In the blink of an eye, only she and Yunyue were left.
"It seems so."
Baoya held her cheek with her white and tender hands and blinked her eyes: "After the New Year, it seems that we are all busy with our own things."
"That's because we've all grown up." Yunhua also came over and sat down next to Baoya. "Don't be so dejected, you two. We'll still be able to see each other every day in the future."
"Yeah," Yunyue said with a look of despair on her face, "Baoya and I were on our way home from class tonight, and we ran into you on the way, rushing from Grandma Yu's to the academy for evening classes."
"Or maybe Baoya and I came from the village to study this morning, and on the way we met you rushing from the academy to learn embroidery from Grandma Yu."
Baoya: ...
Yunhua: ...
Yunyue was right, but Baoya and Yunhua both burst out laughing.
"If the timing is right, the three of us sisters can have breakfast together." Baoya smiled with her crescent eyes curved.
"Ah..." Yunyue sighed like a little adult, "Maybe we can have dinner together."
"Hahaha……"
The three sisters laughed together, their laughter echoing in the candlelit and warm room, and then slowly drifting away from the window.
The next morning, Baoya did not get up early to practice martial arts for the first time, because today was Yunhua's first day to visit Grandma Yu.
Jingzhen also knew about this, so he greeted Nanxuan in advance and drove the donkey cart directly to Ping'an Town with his three sisters.
Because the morning training was cancelled, the four children arrived in town more than an hour earlier than usual.
First, they went to the academy to help Yunhua put away her luggage and pay her respects. Then they went to the breakfast shop to have breakfast, and then sent Yunhua to Grandma Yu.
As a result, when the group arrived at the gate of the academy, they were blocked by another group of scholars in long gowns.
Jingzhen's face suddenly darkened again.
Among those scholars, Wen Caichuan stretched his head and kept looking over here, but was suddenly hit on the head by Yun Chengfu with a book.
"Ouch! Jinzhi, what are you doing?"
Yun Chengfu said with a stern face: "I'm here to pick up my sister, what are you all doing here?"
"Didn't I hear that you have a little sister who is also going to live in the academy? Which one is it?" Wen Caichuan's eyes sparkled.
Yun Chengfu glared at him: "Anyway, she's not the one you like!"
"Oh..." There was obvious disappointment in his voice.
Yun Chengfu didn't bother to pay attention to him. He walked up to greet Baoya and the other children, then took the initiative to help Yunhua carry the small bag and took her to settle down.
Jingzhen went to the Enlightenment Hall with Baoya and Yunyue first. After Yunhua was settled, they would go to Grandma Yu together.
The Enlightenment Hall was empty and very quiet. Only Fang Xian was sitting in his seat, reading a book and reviewing yesterday's lessons.
Jingzhen put down his book basket, took out a book, sat up straight and started to review.
Yunyue packed up her books, placed her pen, ink, paper and inkstone, then rested her chin on her hand and observed the two boys opposite her.
She was thinking, if Rong He was here, he would probably do the same as Jing Zhen, sitting down obediently and reading a book as soon as he arrived, right?
No, no, he should even pull me to read books with him.
Just as he was thinking about it, he caught a glimpse of Baoya sitting next to him. She actually straightened her body, opened the book and started reading.
Yunyue was startled and waved her little hand in front of her: "Baoya, when did you become so hardworking?"
Baoya raised her chubby little head from the book, pointed at Jingzhen who was sitting upright opposite her and said, "Brother Jing is so serious, I have to catch up with him."
Yunyue: ...
She wants a goal too!
Damn it! Rong He isn't here!
On the other side, Yun Chengfu took Yun Hua to Mr. Xiao Qi's spacious and bright study.
Qi Mo used the main hall with two side rooms as his study. The side room on the left was now occupied by Fang Xian, and the side room on the right was for Yunhua. He himself slept in the wing room on the east side of the courtyard.
Yun Chengfu took Yun Hua to settle down, and Wen Caichuan followed behind them like a follower.
Yun Chengfu stopped and rolled his eyes at him.
"Jinzhi, we are classmates. Your sister is my sister." Wen Caichuan said with a smile, "I will help you clean up."
"No need." Yun Chengfu refused bluntly.
"Alas," Wen Caichuan sighed, "Jinzhi, you are so stingy. You have so many sisters, but you can't even give me one."
Yun Chengfu: "If you want a sister, you have to ask your parents for help."
Wen Caichuan said with a bitter face: "It's useless. My mother and I have given birth to five children, all boys."
The three of them had already reached the door of Qi Mo's study. Yun Chengfu took Yun Hua in and stopped Wen Caichuan outside the door.
At this moment, an idea suddenly came to his mind. He remembered the lucky bag that Baoya gave to his second and third aunts during the Chinese New Year. Not long after, his second and third aunts became pregnant.
Pursing his lips, he smiled and said, "Or, you can ask my fifth sister for help."
