He Youyou followed Zhao Wenqi to the backyard, where she encountered Zhao Changqing.
"Come on, let's go see the clothes your nephew washed."
Zhao Changqing raised an eyebrow and followed behind her without saying a word.
The three of them headed to the backyard in a grand procession.
Han Wenzheng was still there, having just packed up the wooden basin and soap for washing clothes, and had not yet left.
The mother was very satisfied with his thoroughness and ability to see things through.
Zhao Wenqi ran to the clothesline and pointed to the clothes hanging there: "Look, these are clothes I washed myself."
He Youyou and Zhao Changqing stepped forward and examined the garment for a long time.
He Youyou reached out and lifted the front of the garment, examining it closely: "Hmm, it's very clean. There was a large patch of wet mud stuck to the front just now, but it's completely gone now."
Seeing her say that, Zhao Changqing echoed, "Indeed, it was washed very well."
The second prince was overjoyed to hear this.
Hehe, he's a real genius.
However, there is still a small regret.
"Ah! If only my father and mother could see this too."
Hearing him say that, He Youyou stroked her chin and thought for a moment.
Let others see it?
There are ways to overcome this problem.
"Ah Li, do you have any red paper in your room?"
Han Wenzheng nodded: "Yes."
In social interactions, it's inevitable that there will be times when it's necessary to send invitations.
The invitations that He Youyou sent out were usually written by Ali, who always kept a few sheets of red paper in his room.
"Go and get a sheet of paper, and also bring the pen and ink," He Youyou said.
"good."
Han Wenzheng ran away quickly.
Not long after, he quickly ran back, holding paper and pen in his hand.
The brush was the same one He Youyou gave him last time—a calligraphy brush with a storage capacity for ink.
He Youyou didn't answer, her gaze shifting back and forth between Ali and Zhao Changqing.
Finally, it stopped on Zhao Changqing.
He Youyou handed him the pen: "You have the highest status in this courtyard, so it's most appropriate for you to write this."
Zhao Changqing was completely bewildered and had no idea what He Youyou wanted him to write.
"What do you want me to write?"
He Youyou explained to him, "Write an award certificate to commend Zhao Wenqi for completing the important task of washing clothes independently for the first time. This marks his successful first step on the road to self-reliance."
Zhao Changqing roughly understood; it was a notice or inscription serving a similar purpose of commendation.
The pen in his hand was the same one he had seen before, the one he had coveted but could not have.
Now that I have it in my hands, I finally have the chance to try it out.
"Hanzhang, write according to your own understanding, and decide the wording and sentence structure. I am illiterate, I don't understand."
After a moment's thought, Zhao Changqing picked up his brush and wrote the poem in one stroke.
Several neat lines of small regular script appeared on the red paper.
After the writing on the paper dried, Zhao Changqing handed it to He Youyou.
He Youyou picked up the pen and added her own name next to Zhao Changqing's name in the signature.
Then, she solemnly handed the certificate to Zhao Wenqi.
Zhao Wenqi held the paper, reluctant to put it down.
Read the words above repeatedly.
"Diligent and responsible, self-reliant and steadfast...hehehe...that's praising me...hehe..."
He read it aloud, grinning from ear to ear.
Zhao Changqing looked at the bright red paper, where his and He Youyou's names appeared side by side, and couldn't help but smile.
He Youyou said to Zhao Wenqi, "This certificate is the evidence. Your uncle and I both signed it, so we are witnesses. Take this back to your parents; it can prove that you did this."
Zhao Wenqi carefully held the certificate, wanting to fold it up and put it in his arms.
But Zhao Changqing stopped him.
"It's too simple, it's not framed. Give me this certificate, and I'll have someone frame it with silk."
Zhao Wenqi handed it to him with a worried expression: "Uncle, please be careful not to break it."
"Yes, don't worry."
"Uncle, please don't get it wet. This is paper; if it gets wet, it will wrinkle, and the writing on it might even bleed."
"knew."
"Uncle, keep away from the candles; the paper is very easy to ignite."
"...Are you going to let go or not?" Zhao Changqing asked impatiently.
This nephew of mine is usually so carefree and unserious, why is he being so long-winded and nagging now?
"Return it to me quickly once you're done framing it."
Zhao Changqing returned his gaze with only a cold stare: "If you don't let go, I'm not framing it anymore."
Zhao Wenqi then reluctantly let go.
While the eight-year-old was still immersed in excitement and joy, He Youyou had already changed the subject.
She asked Han Wenzheng, "Ali, do you have any books on the official system and regulations of the Great Gan Dynasty? If so, could you lend them to me?"
Before Han Wenzheng could speak, Zhao Changqing interrupted him.
"What do you need books on official systems and regulations for?"
He Youyou had no choice but to turn her head and face him: "I want to know about the current official system and political system."
Why is it important to understand the political system of the Great Gan Dynasty?
In He Youyou's words, it means that businesses must conduct thorough political environment analysis.
Political factors are an important factor influencing business decisions.
What are the different levels of government departments, and which levels have a decisive influence on business decisions?
What are the current political decisions? Which industries will be affected by the latest political decisions?
For example, what regulatory policies does the government have, and what reporting systems are in place?
Only by understanding these things can we gain a deeper understanding of business practices and market dynamics in this era.
"Mother, I was wrong."
Han Wenzheng, who was standing to the side, suddenly knelt down again.
He Youyou was startled.
What's wrong now?
She didn't say anything, did she?
"Mother, I was wrong."
"Where did you go wrong?" She genuinely didn't understand.
“Mother, your child should not only bury himself in the classics and ancient political books, but also understand the current laws and regulations and read contemporary political books.”
He Youyou quickly reached out and pulled him up.
He patted him on the shoulder and said, "Your idea is right. If you take the imperial examination and become an official in the court, you need to understand the current policies and systems in detail. Reading more of these kinds of classics will be of great benefit to your future development."
But honestly, there's really no need to kneel down...
Every day, just getting you up is exhausting for my back.
“If you want to see the regulations and systems, I can help you find them,” Zhao Changqing said, successfully drawing her attention back.
He Youyou nodded in satisfaction: "The Commander-in-Chief is truly resourceful and capable. But, roughly when can you find it? Would it be convenient for me to borrow it for a few days?"
Zhao Changqing puffed out his chest: "There is also a comprehensive encyclopedia in the Han family's study, but it is an old encyclopedia from ten years ago, and it is slightly different from the current regulations. I will send someone to the government office to help you find the latest compiled encyclopedia."
