As soon as the voice came out, Baoer knew who it was. It was the Fourteenth Prince. She didn't expect him to be so persistent. Even after so many years, he was still thinking about her.
Qingchuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Baoer, then smiled teasingly. However, the faces of the men next to him were somewhat dark.
Baoer ignored him. She was talking to Yuyan and Zhaozhao.
"Do you want to come and play in my school when you have time? It's quite lively there."
Baoer is not exaggerating. After more than two years of development by Baoer and Qingchuan, many of the children who studied in the college have found it easy to find jobs after graduation.
This year, there are more than 1,700 freshmen in the college.
Last year, Baoer even set up an invention department at the college, essentially his own personal R&D lab. He's dedicated to improving things like farm tools and looms. Everyone can research whatever they need, and Baoer has promised to give them credit for any successes.
Among them, there was a female student who improved the loom. She used her newly improved loom to weave cloth several times faster than before.
The finished product of this loom was handed over to the court by the school, and both the school and the student were commended by the court. Later, other students invented some practical things for the court. Some were even directly rewarded with minor official positions by the court, which caused unrest at the time.
Even the Emperor had publicly praised Baoer's school in court last year, and in a good mood, he gave Baoer a position as the head of the Ceremonial Department of the Ministry of Rites, a sixth-rank official.
Because the emperor also knew that Baoer would be in charge of the academy, he specifically stated that Baoer did not have to go to the yamen to work every day.
The school's prestige was greatly enhanced, and the court's repeated commendations made many powerful families aware of the importance attached to it. Now, many wealthy families are willing to send their children to the academy.
So some time ago, Baoer specially found a few talented students and gave them the cement formula from her previous life, asking them to study it carefully. If they succeeded, she would definitely give them credit.
When Bao Er mentioned this, Zhao Zhao and Yu Yan were both tempted. But when they thought of the emperor in the palace, Yu Yan hesitated and asked, "What about the study?"
Prince Li listened and laughed, "That's easy, it'll only take a few days. I'll tell your Royal Mafa when the time comes."
"Okay," the two girls were happy. Yuyan looked at the group of men surrounding her mother and pulled Baoer away. "Then mother, you guys chat first. I'll take Zhaozhao to see my sister."
Fourteen pouted and complained, "Sister Baoer, I'm talking to you, why are you ignoring me?"
Baoer was speechless. "No, didn't you see I was talking to two kids? Are you looking for your ninth brother, tenth brother or second brother? They are all here. I'm going to be busy." Then he left and decided to hide.
Seeing Bao'er hurried away, Nian Gengyao quickly caught up. In his view, this was a matter between the Aixinjueluo brothers, and he was just an outsider. It would be better to just take care of Bao'er.
Yinzhen was really sad, with tears in his eyes, "Sister Baoer, do you really look down on me so much?"
He likes Sister Baoer so much, why doesn't she even look at him?
Does she know how much effort she had to put in to get her mother to agree to marry her?
Yinzhen pulled Yinzhen aside and turned to leave. "Fourteenth brother, let's talk."
"Yes, let's have a good talk with brother," Yin also agreed.
The prince smiled helplessly and left. That was his ninth brother and the others' business, and he had no right to deal with it. He was just a man who was out of the game.
Baoer ran out with his head down.
My mind is in a mess right now. I don't know why Fourteenth Prince keeps causing trouble all the time. I've said many times in the past few years that I don't have any feelings for him. Can't I just give up?
"Why are you running so fast? Be careful not to fall," Nian Gengyao caught up with Baoer and took his hand.
Baoer took a breath and said, "I just feel very troubled. I have rejected him many times, but he still doesn't change his original intention. I really want to ask him what he likes about me. Can't I change it?"
Nian Gengyao was amused by her depressed tone. "Hahaha, Baoer, you are still so cute after all these years."
"I thought you should have a correct understanding of yourself and know how charming you are. There is no reason to love someone. For example, I fell in love with you for no reason at all." Nian Gengyao said the last sentence very piously, and even Baoer was stunned by the seriousness in his tone.
She smiled sweetly, "I know, that's why I cherish the days with you guys."
The two looked at each other and smiled sweetly. Baoer looked at Nian Gengyao in front of him with emotion. He was only 25 years old and had already been promoted to Hanlin Bachelor.
"Rong An is here, what a coincidence," the voice said clearly.
Bao Er turned around and saw that it was Fu Cha Fu Cheng, who was now a deputy minister in the Ministry of Works. Seeing him, Bao Er's face, which was full of smiles just now, suddenly froze. He had just dodged one and another came.
Bao Er laughed dryly and said, "It's Master Fucha."
Nian Gengyao took Bao'er's hand and held it, whispering in Bao'er's ear, "My Bao'er is so lucky, she has admirers everywhere."
Baoer's ears were tickled by his breathing. "Stop it, this person likes me, not me who likes him, why are you jealous?"
Baoer still feels aggrieved, it's not his fault.
Nian Gengyao obviously knew what Bao'er meant. Isn't this just asking for some benefits by being jealous? "Who made our Bao'er so charming? There are so many people thinking about her?"
Then he looked at Fu Cha Fu Cheng coldly and said coldly, "Why are you here, Master Fu Cha? The banquet is about to start, let's go over there."
Fu Cheng didn't care about his cold words. He looked at Bao'er with a lonely expression and said, "It hasn't started yet. I want to go out for a walk."
In fact, he didn't want to see if Baoer would be here. He didn't expect to meet her here. Unfortunately, she was accompanied by a handsome concubine.
Nian Gengyao looked at him with even colder eyes. The vixen had been going on for years and still hadn't stopped.
"Oh? Let's take a walk. It's almost time to start. Should we go back over there?"
"Well, let's go together," Fu Cheng said helplessly.
Nian Gengyao asked nonchalantly, "Master Fucha is 22 years old this year, why haven't you thought about getting married yet? The single tax is several thousand taels every year, which is too uneconomical."
He is so old and still hasn't gotten married. He keeps staring at Baoer secretly all day long. It's really annoying.
Fu Cheng glanced at the two of them and said, "I also want to get married soon. Doesn't this mean that my future wife doesn't want me? It's because I'm useless and can't let my wife like me. Besides, don't worry about the single tax, my Fu Cha family can afford it."
Baoer saw that the two of them were talking in a different tone and quickly interrupted, "Ah, we are finally here, Master Fucha, please go and sit down."
Fu Chengshen glanced at Baoer and said, "Then I'll go first. We can talk again when we have time."
Fu Cheng's words were particularly meaningful, but unfortunately Baoer didn't notice it. Because Nian Gengyao cared about Baoer, he didn't care that both of them left.
Only Fu Cha Fu Cheng was left standing there, smiling particularly brightly.
