At first, Su Yanqing really didn't react in time. He only realized it after hearing the last few words his mother said.
"Mother, do you mean to let Lanlan go to the girls' school?"
Madam Su raised her head proudly. She would never admit it herself.
"That's all I have to say. Figure it out for yourself!"
After she said that, Su Yanqing was certain that his mother had accepted his and Lanlan's relationship. However, she required Lanlan to go to a girls' school to learn how to take care of household affairs in the future.
He was extremely happy, extremely happy and excited.
I can't wait to find Lanlan and talk about this.
"Mother, please have your meal first. I have already eaten outside. I still have some things to deal with in the pharmacy. I will come back to have dinner with you in the evening."
Su Yanqing stood up. Madam Su looked at his smile and felt as if he hadn't smiled so happily in front of her for a long time.
However, to be honest, it is true that once you have a lover, you will forget your mother.
Su Yanqing had only taken two steps when he seemed to remember something. He turned back and performed a solemn filial ceremony for his mother.
"Thank you, mother, for your help!"
At this moment, Mrs. Su felt much better and thought to herself, you have a conscience.
She waved her hand:
"Alright, alright, go do whatever you need to do."
Seeing that the fried dumplings were almost cold, she wanted to eat a few more!
As soon as Su Yanqing left, she immediately picked up her chopsticks and began to enjoy her lunch leisurely.
However, she didn't touch any of the dishes she usually liked to eat. Instead, she ate more than a dozen fried dumplings because she was so full that she couldn't bear it anymore.
The new nanny beside her was named Lin. She also asked Nanny Lin to go to Xiaoji to see if there was anything else delicious and bring it back for her to try.
…
At Xiao's side, business was still booming. In the afternoon, seeing that there were fewer people, Tingzhu, the servant beside Su Yanqing, came again and brought another letter to Lanlan.
The letter I received in the morning was called a letter, but after I opened it, I found that it contained a small photo of her, with a red plum blossom that was freshly put in that morning.
This young couple is so romantic.
Receiving two letters in one day is a bit too sweet, Jiang Sui joked, making Lanlan's face turn red like a shrimp.
After opening the second letter, this time there was content inside. Su Yanqing felt that if he visited her too frequently, he would be criticized, which would not be good for her reputation, so he could only write a letter.
He told her his mother's idea, hoping that she could go to the girls' school.
Moreover, it is explained in detail that what women are taught in women's schools is not how to take care of their husbands and children, or the three obediences and four virtues, but what they learn are useful things, things that cultivate one's character and are conducive to improving oneself.
Anyway, there is absolutely no harm in going there.
Xiao Lanlan had always wanted to improve herself, and now it seemed that this girls' school was a perfect place to go.
She didn't want to be criticized by others and told that she was not worthy of him even if she married Su Yanqing as she wished.
She had to stand on the same level as him.
So she showed the letter to Jiang Sui and asked for his opinion, saying that she really wanted to go to the girls' school.
This is a good thing. As long as it can improve yourself, you should go.
If the store could do with more people, Jiang Sui would have wanted to learn it.
It is definitely not cost-effective to hire people now when you are just starting out.
"If you want to go, then go ahead. Anyway, you have a lot of family members, so you don't have to worry about business matters. I'll find time to accompany you to the women's school to get familiar with the environment. The place recommended by Second Young Master Su will definitely not be a bad one. In short, I think your idea is feasible."
She analyzed it from the perspective of a good sister.
But if you want to be more specific, perhaps asking Xiao Hechuan would be more direct and to the point.
When Xiao Hechuan heard Xiao Lanlan's idea, he just laughed.
He thought, now that's good, he doesn't have to take the initiative to explain to her. He already had this idea and recommended Xiao Lanlan to go to the girls' school.
"The Women's School is very good. It only accepts female students, and the female teachers there are all talented and capable. They are all well-known female role models in Jeju. The mother of my classmate Qi Xiuyuan teaches at the Women's School. I can ask Qi Xiuyuan directly to find out how much the annual tuition fee is."
So, the next day Xiao Hechuan went to ask Qi Xiuyuan. When Qi Xiuyuan heard that his sister wanted to go to a girls' school, he immediately said that he could go back and talk to his mother about it.
If girls want to learn a single subject, the tuition fee is not expensive and some can become masters in one month, such as flower arrangement, tea ceremony, and incense ceremony.
But if you want to study all of them, the annual tuition is thirty taels of silver. There are four classes a day, and it doesn't take much time, only two hours a day at most.
In the remaining time, I can come back to help take care of the business at home.
However, it was still suggested that the two of them go for an on-site investigation. Qi Xiuyuan went home and talked to his mother about it. She immediately decided to be Xiao Lanlan and Jiang Sui's tour guide, taking them to visit the girls' school and telling them some of the main contents of the girls' school.
The time was set for the early morning of three days later.
At that time, Jiang Sui would accompany Xiao Lanlan there. When the other members of the Xiao family heard that she was going to study at the girls' school, they also expressed their support.
Especially Xiao's mother, who generously said that as long as she had the heart, she would be willing to support her.
She is worthy of being my daughter. She has backbone and will never stand there foolishly. Instead, she works hard to improve herself. She has earned her dignity and face by herself.
Xiaoji Noodle Shop has been open for three days. Business is good every day, with a lot of repeat customers. Because the fried dumplings can be packed away, the daily turnover is several taels of silver.
If this situation continues, no one in the house will be able to leave to do other things, because the store will be extremely busy every day and will be completely staffed.
In the past few days, Xiaoji has become the busiest store in the entire West Street and the most talked-about store. Word of the store spreads from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. Many people even walk for half an hour just to eat a bowl of noodles.
Because of this, colleagues in the same industry have already felt the pressure, and asked their servants to go to Xiao Ji to taste the noodles there, and then pack up some fried dumplings to try.
When the servants went there, they all thought that it must be nothing special. It was not until they ate it themselves that they realized that there was a huge difference between their own food and others' and there was no comparison at all.
I didn’t feel that much of a crisis originally, but now that I’ve put the food in my mouth, I realize that the pressure is even greater.
If this continues, won’t the noodle shops and wonton shops nearby be defeated by Xiao’s?
We have to find a way to protect ourselves and get the business back.
