Qian Chunhua understood in her heart that the aggressive attitude of the lady in front of him might make Master Wang feel despised.
"What's wrong with wasting food?" Mrs. Liu found it incredible to learn that her child was criticized for wasting food.
"How is it a waste of food? My Shu Chao spent 20 taels of silver for food a few days ago to enter the academy. It's not like he's here to eat yak food."
The annual tuition fee of Yongning Academy is fifty taels, and the food allowance is twenty taels.
Mrs. Liu was indignant. With the soaring prices, the academy's annual expenses could cover three months of household expenses at home.
If the master hadn't insisted, Madam Liu would not have been willing to spend so much money to send Liu Shuchao to the academy. The child is still young, why send him to the academy so early?
After spending so much money, I still get criticized.
Mrs. Liu felt that she was really asking for trouble.
Master Wang was so angry that his beard twitched.
"Sorry, sorry, Master Wang, I'm late." A voice came from outside the study.
Qian Chunhua turned his head and saw a middle-aged man who looked like an official appeared at the door.
As soon as he entered the room, he bowed to Master Wang.
Master Wang quickly returned the greeting, "Liu Changshi is very busy with official duties, and it is a great honor for you to come."
Chief Secretary? Qian Chunhua's eyes flickered. This was similar to the job of Secretary General.
The secretary general of Prince Yongning? No wonder his wife is so arrogant.
Liu Changshi looked at everyone in the study, and when he saw Guan Yueru, his eyes flashed and he recognized her.
It turned out that the middle-aged man was Liu Yu, the chief historian of King Yongning. Just after lunch, he heard from the servant that his son had a fight in the academy and his wife rushed to deal with it.
Liu Yuyi immediately broke out in a sweat in this extremely cold weather.
The husband knows his own family affairs well, and he is very good at dealing with his wife's unreasonable affairs. Especially to his son, he dotes on him to the extreme.
Although he is not my biological father, I love him more than my biological father.
Liu Yuyu may not be in other places, but in Yongning Academy, his family members cannot act as they please.
Especially during the Chinese New Year, many people with backgrounds flocked into Yongning Prefecture.
For example, this person in front of me...
Fortunately, he arrived in time and Liu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
Master Wang told Liu Yuyi again the reason for the conflict among the three children.
Liu Yuyi was kind and sensible, waving his hand, "It's just a small matter. This kid Shu Chao should be taught a lesson."
“Dad…” Liu Shuchao was not convinced.
"How can it be a small matter? Look, the clothes made by me are dirty, and my son was beaten." Mrs. Liu was not satisfied with the way her husband handled the matter.
Qian Chunhua was calm and composed, not saying a word, waiting for them to deal with the matter. It seemed that this Liu Changshi was a shrewd man.
Guan Yueru asked, "Excuse me, Madam, how do you want to deal with this?"
"Compensate for this dress and my son's medical expenses." Mrs. Liu responded forcefully.
"How much?" Guan Yueru was very straightforward. Anything that could be solved with silver notes was a small matter.
"Twenty...fifty taels." Mrs. Liu asked for a huge sum.
“No…no need.” Liu Yubei quickly stepped forward to stop him.
"Okay..." Guan Yueru agreed immediately.
He ignored Liu Yu's attempt to stop him.
He took out a fifty-liang silver note and handed it to Mrs. Liu.
Liu Yu couldn't stop her. Madam Liu took the banknote with a smile, and then looked at Qian Chunhua again, "What about yours?"
Qian Chunhua was stunned. So the fifty taels she mentioned meant fifty taels per person, and two people would compensate her with one tael?
Why doesn't she go and grab it?
Without waiting for Qian Chunhua to ask, Guan Yueru grabbed her hand and shook her head slightly.
However, Qian Chunhua swallowed his anger for the time being.
Qian Chunhua took out a silver note worth one tael and handed it to Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu was extremely happy. She earned a fortune of 150 taels of silver at once. She cheerfully checked the 50-tael silver note that Yueru had just given her and used it to make up for the loss to Qian Chunhua.
