"Humph, you jinx, I've already told you that only your brother should study hard, what about you? You took advantage of being the eldest and insisted on studying, and your father got sick from all the hard work, and now he's been poisoned. Are you happy?"
At this time, a man in the group whispered, "Is this a student from Tianlu Academy? I seem to have seen you before when Mr. Tianlu Academy was giving a lecture."
"All the graduates of Tianlu Academy can enter the imperial court and become high-ranking officials. I didn't expect that my mother is such a scoundrel."
The boy almost cried out in anxiety when he heard this: "Mother, I beg you, please get up quickly!"
"Who is your mother? I only have one son, and you are just a bastard your father brought back from outside. You are not worthy of calling me!"
Tianlu Academy?
Shang Ruoyi had a vague impression that most of the civil servants in the court came from Tianlu Academy, which was a place specifically for training censors for the court.
Seeing this, Shopkeeper Xiao sighed, took out two taels of silver from his bosom and handed them to the woman: "Madam, giving you this silver is an acknowledgement that the medicinal materials in our clinic are moldy. I just want to ruin your future here. From today on, if you want to come to our clinic to get medicine again, we will take care of your family's illness together."
After saying that, he walked past her and entered the clinic.
The old woman stood up from the ground with the silver in her hand, curled her lips and smiled, "Now, my son's salary has been settled."
The man clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "Mom, how could you do such a deceptive thing? As the old saying goes..."
Before he could finish, the woman interrupted him coldly: "I don't want to hear your nonsense, this cloud and that word, taking the silver home is the right thing to do, why did you come back this time?" She held the silver tightly in her hand: "I'm telling you, don't even think about asking me for a penny, you don't have to pay the tuition, you have to find a way yourself, you are my son, why do you ask me for money?"
She glared at the man, turned around and left, still saying confidently: "You are a bastard, and you want to study like my son? Dream on! Without the tuition, I don't think you can return to Tianlu Academy."
The man's clenched fists slowly loosened, and his originally held high head slowly lowered.
He looked at the clinic's signboard, bowed, and then turned and left.
When Qian Niang saw the crowd disperse, she took Shang Ruoyi's hand and said, "Sister, let's go to the shop!"
"Boss, the master is here and wants to see you." A maid came over and whispered in her ear.
Shang Ruoyi saw that her face was slightly stagnant, and said with a smile: "Sister, if you have something to do, go and do it first! I will go around by myself first."
"If you are tired, come to my Tianxiang Residence to rest."
"Thank you, sister."
After Qian Niang left, Shang Ruoyi looked for the man in the crowd.
"Sister 께, 놛 went east." Shaoyao said softly.
Shang Ruoyi looked at her with appreciation. She didn't expect that she was so thoughtful.
Walking eastward for a while, I saw 놛 sitting in front of a stall, helping 그 write.
There was also a banner next to the stall, which read: "Writing letters for me, 2 cents per letter"
Nice handwriting!
Shang Ruoyi couldn't help but sigh.
She boasted that she had seen calligraphy and paintings by many famous teachers, and her calligraphy was absolutely top-notch in every aspect.
At this time, an elderly man was sitting in front of the stall. He took the written letter and put two cents on the table.
He quickly put it away and looked at the few copper coins dripping out of his purse. He sighed and thought, if he continued like this, when would he be able to save enough for the tuition?
At this moment, an ingot of silver was placed on the stall.
It's more than five taels.
this······
He raised his head in shock, looking at the veiled woman in front of him, and didn't say a word for a long time.
Shaoyao couldn't help laughing when she saw his silly look.
Only then did she come to her senses and hurriedly pushed the silver back: "Miss, this silver is too much. It only costs two cents to write a letter. I don't have that much silver. Give me the change."
Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "When did I say I would only write one letter?"
The man was stunned for a moment. How long would it take to finish writing a five-liang letter?
Shang Ruoyi took out a piece of paper from her sleeve pocket and handed it to him: "Sir, just write these words 10,000 times, and the five taels of silver will be yours. As for the rest, it will all be your hard-earned money."
The man opened the note and it said: Milk tea, pearl milk tea.
"The six words 늀?"
Shang Ruoyi nodded: "That's right."
He looked up at Shang Ruoyi and recognized her as the one who had just watched him. He immediately understood her intention.
After thinking for a while, he returned the silver: "Thank you for your kindness, young lady, but as the ancients said: A gentleman who loves money should take it in a proper way. I can take advantage of you like this, which is definitely not your way."
Seeing him being so elegant, Shang Ruoyi couldn't help laughing: "Since you are the lord, you should know that important matters should be handled with care. Besides, I do need your help, so I want you to take the silver for nothing."
"Yes, my sister knows that you are in trouble, but she just wants to help you. She doesn't want to let the honest and talented person be buried because of money." Shaoyao said with a smile: "Sister, I think you are really stupid because of reading too much."
"If you become famous one day, you must not forget your original intention today." Shang Ruoyi put the silver back on the table: "Three days later, I will let my subordinates come here to get 10,000 notes. Remember to keep your promise."
The man cupped his hands and bowed deeply to Shang Ruoyi: "My dear Li Yun, thank you for your kindness. One day, I will definitely repay you. Gu Yun."
"You want clouds!" Shang Ruoyi hurriedly interrupted, are all books in the world like this, clouds coming and going? Listening to this made me feel overwhelmed: "Just remember to keep your promise."
Li Tian nodded: "Don't worry, girl."
Shang Ruoyi knew that everything she had just done was seen by Yunqi and Yuntian.
Yun Tian said angrily: "Did you see that? She is a fickle woman. It's a pity that the master is sincere to her, but she doesn't deserve it!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Which eye of yours saw that Concubine 녡떚 was fickle?" Yunqi slapped 놛 on the head: "If you continue to talk nonsense in front of His Highness, His Highness 께心 will slap you to death."
"Didn't you see that the book's eyeballs were almost falling on her?"
"You are a student of Tianlu Academy. Do you know what Tianlu Academy means to Tianshun?" Yunqi whispered, "The Concubine has always been smart and cautious. She must have her reasons for doing this."
Yuntian said incredulously: "What kind of drug have you been fed?"
"Who gave us the love potion?" A deep voice sounded behind the second child.
Yunqi Er was startled.
"녡떚."
He Jingheng walked over, and at the corner of the street, the familiar figure disappeared.
He turned around and looked at the two of them: "What's going on?"
