Marquis Yuyong was really heartbroken. He had never seen a child so obsessed. He even agreed with the servant's words and didn't dare to refute a word.
"Dad, don't worry about me, I... I am happy to read!" Zhou Jingmao was afraid that the servant would complain, so he could only say firmly.
Marquis Yuyong became even more worried.
Being a father is really hard for him. He was worried when his son was young and ignorant. Now that he is sensible... he is afraid.
Zhou Jingmao's good days officially began from this day.
The servant accompanied him to school and paid the tuition fees regularly. He kept an eye on him all the time, even when he went to the toilet, the servant would not let him go.
The two of them almost ate and slept together.
This servant was not well-educated. He was mainly responsible for supervision and finding ways to motivate Zhou Jingmao. With his constant encouragement, Zhou Jingmao felt like there was a big guillotine on his head and he couldn't relax at all.
All day long, Zhou Jingmao was either sleeping or reading. He could only rest his eyes occasionally, but he was definitely reciting at that time.
This persistence also influenced other people in the academy.
The atmosphere in the academy is much better than before.
The teachers' steps became more brisk. Zhou Jingmao became their most favorite child after Xiao Cunyu, and they all tried their best to instill knowledge into his mind.
While Zhou Jingmao was fighting desperately, Xiao Cunyu spent half a month and finally sent away all the more than 20 ghosts.
Every day, he serves more than 20 ghosts with food, drink and entertainment, and money is spent like water. Xiao Jingyun wanted to intervene several times, but when he saw Xiao Cunyu talking to himself, he could only shut his mouth silently.
Even when he accidentally heard Xiao Cunyu mention something like the orphanage, he reluctantly gave Xiao Cunyu 1,000 taels of silver.
The old headmaster also urged Xiao Cunyu to study, but when he found out that Xiao Cunyu did not slack off or fool him, he felt relieved and felt that it was not appropriate for him to stay in the Xiao family any longer.
She was only allowed to go to the academy to get books every once in a while, and no other requirements were made.
To the old headmaster, Xiao Cunyu had transformed from a troublesome heir to a trouble-free genius.
But he didn't know that Xiao Cunyu's way of saving trouble also required energy.
She had indeed read many books and knew a lot, but the sea of books in Wanjun Academy was still difficult for her. Even though she had a photographic memory, she still needed to review the content first. So she went out during the day to fulfill her last wish, and stayed up late at night to study hard.
I have been very tired during this period.
Fortunately, so many ghosts gave her a lot of rewards.
She actually gained an extra year of life! Finally, she could breathe a few more breaths!
There is another reason why the ghosts of the orphans finally passed away peacefully, and that is because the sinners who committed heinous crimes were sentenced.
The chief steward and his brother-in-law from the Ministry of Civil Affairs had nearly a hundred people in their three clans. They also caught corrupt officials hiding in the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Justice, and they wanted to confiscate their property and exterminate their clans... The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice was directly dismissed.
There are quite a lot of people who have committed crimes. There are people above them who are covering for them, and there are people below them who help the manager find suitable children.
Whenever a child who was too young to be born died in the orphanage, they would find a human trafficker to secretly buy a replacement to fool the Ministry of Household Affairs' population survey. However, the people hired by the chief steward were not very reliable. Sometimes they would take the money to buy a child but end up kidnapping and selling the child!
Fortunately, the person they ran into was the prince, and he made a big deal out of it!
Otherwise, if the emperor knew about such a dark matter first, I'm afraid we could only deal with it secretly!
