As you enter the academy gate, you will see a very spacious teaching square, surrounded by classrooms, from which you can faintly hear the sound of reading.
"Young man, do you know where Mr. Song Xianshan's study is?" The study in the academy in this era is actually equivalent to the teacher's office in the modern world.
Pei Zhao is Mr. Song's disciple, so if she wants to find Pei Zhao, she must first know where Mr. Song is.
"Mr. Su, the Haohan Academy is quite large. If you are looking for Mr. Song, I can show you the way later."
Mr. Song is a famous scholar in the Great Jin State, and many people admire him. Menzi thought that Su Li was one of them, and did not think it was anything strange. Besides, Su Li came here to handle the job application, and would be a teacher at the Haohan Academy in the future. She should be familiar with the layout of the academy, and he could do her a good job by leading her around.
"Thank you very much."
"Mr. Su, you're too polite..."
Su Li felt a little embarrassed when she heard him calling her "sir". She came to refuse, and she would not become a teacher in the academy in the future.
The two of them crossed the teaching square and entered another door. The doorman led her to the entrance of the Liberal Arts Study and said, "Mr. Su, this is where the academy handles its business. Please come in. I'll be waiting for you here..."
Su Li responded and walked in.
She was greeted by a middle-aged woman who was surprised to learn that Su Li was here to decline the teaching invitation. "Mr. Su, are you dissatisfied with anything?"
Haohan Academy is the most prestigious academy in all of Dajin. Countless people vie for admission to the academy every year. So, Mr. Su actually turned them down like that? It was actually an invitation from the academy.
Su Li smiled slightly and said, "I'm not dissatisfied at all, it's just that I'm not interested in this..."
"I see. That's such a pity..." The middle-aged woman felt a little regretful. She knew Mr. Su, the first prize winner of the "Goddess Picture" painting competition.
She had seen her painting of "The Goddess", and even though she knew nothing about painting, she was deeply shocked. She really felt sorry that such a master of painting did not come to Haohan Academy.
But the other person clearly said that he is not interested in this, so she can't force him, right?
After coming out of the Wenli Study, Su Li followed Menzi to Mr. Song's study.
Arriving at the study, Su Li discovered that Mr. Song was not in the study. He was probably in class. Su Li took out a few coins and stuffed them into Menzi's pocket: "Thank you very much, little brother. You can go back first. I will wait for Mr. Song here for a while..."
Unexpectedly, he could get a reward just for showing the way. The doorman took the silver with some surprise and said respectfully, "Then I'll be leaving first. It's still a while before school is over. I'm sure Mr. Song will be back soon."
This study belongs exclusively to Mr. Song, and it also has a small courtyard. After the doorman left, Su Li sat down on the stone bench in the small courtyard and waited.
After about ten minutes, a bell rang. It was the academy's bell for the end of school.
After waiting for several minutes, Mr. Song returned with Pei Zhao.
When Pei Zhao saw Su Li for the first time after entering the yard, his eyes widened slightly, as if he couldn't believe it. Then he ran towards Su Li with a face full of joy: "Mom!"
"Zhao'er!" Su Li squatted down with her arms outstretched, hugging Pei Zhao tightly. "I miss you so much!"
Pei Zhao had followed Mr. Song to Beijing for half a year, and Su Li really missed him.
"Mom, I miss you too. You are finally here..." Although he was very happy studying in the academy and often neglected sleep and food, he also often missed his mother. Sometimes he would dream about her, and after waking up he would cry secretly for a while.
Su Li touched his little head and patted his back: "Okay, okay, I'll hold you again later."
Although Pei Zhao didn't want to let go, he felt a little embarrassed when he thought of his master still watching, so he let go of his mother and held her hand instead.
Su Li smiled with satisfaction and thought to herself, fortunately he didn't "forget his mother after having a master", at least his love for this kid was not in vain.
"Mr. Song..." She nodded to Mr. Song in greeting.
Song Xianshan nodded and smiled, "Zhao'er finally got you here, haha..."
The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Mr. Song said directly, "Okay, Zhao'er won't have classes this afternoon. Go out for a walk with your mother."
Pei Zhao said happily, "Thank you, Master!"
Song Xianshan was a little surprised, then smiled and shook his head. The last time Pei Ji came to see him, he also asked him to go out for a walk with his father, but what did he say?
"Master, no, it will delay the course..."
If it were his mother, her attitude would be completely different.
He finally realized that this kid was obviously closer to his mother than his father...
After saying goodbye to Mr. Song, Su Li took Pei Zhao's hand and walked out of the academy. Oh, it should be Pei Zhao who led her out of the academy. After all, the academy was like a maze, and the way was really complicated.
When they reached the door, the doorman who had just brought her in was also a little surprised. How could Mr. Su go in and bring a child out? He knew this child. That child was Mr. Song's favorite disciple and a famous prodigy in Haohan Academy. Could it be that Mr. Su had known Mr. Song for a long time?
Su Li nodded and greeted him. Seeing his curious face, she simply told him that Pei Zhao was her child. After all, she would visit Pei Zhao often in the future, and it would be more convenient to have someone she knew well.
Menzi looked incredulous that Ms. Su was actually the mother of the little prodigy, and immediately became more respectful to her.
Pei Zhao had just finished school and hadn't had lunch yet, so Su Li thought of taking him to a nearby restaurant for dinner.
"Mom, when are we going to visit my sister? I miss her too."
On the way, Pei Zhao raised his little face and looked at Su Li.
His father had already told him that his sister had become a disciple of the miraculous doctor Huitian and was now studying medicine in Qiongzhou.
"Hmm... Mom doesn't know either. I'll go when I have time."
"Then take me with you when you go."
"Haha, aren't you afraid of missing classes?" Su Li teased.
"You can learn on the road too, girl."
"...Okay, if your master agrees, I'll take you there."
"Okay!" Pei Zhao raised his little face. "By the way, Mom, Dad asked me to tell you that he's staying in room 319 of the Jufu Inn now."
Jufu Inn?
What a coincidence, Pei Ji is also staying at Jufu Inn?
"Okay, Mom understands..."
"Mom, are we going to find Dad now?"
"Ah?" Su Li was stunned and almost forgot that the child had a father.
She has become accustomed to the identity of the mother of two children, but she really cannot put herself in the role of a wife. After all, there is no love between her and Pei Ji.
Moreover, the original heroine who will appear in the future is his official match. What she has to do is to play the role of a good mother. After all, she had promised the original owner, and change her fate of being killed by the vicious female supporting role.
After that, she will divorce Pei Ji to help him and the original heroine, while she will be a rich and idle person.
"Then let's go find your father first?"
"Um!"
