Chapter 40 Official School

Chapter 40 Official School
Jiang Yuanbo wanted to find a teacher for Jiang Li, and Jiang Li soon found out about it.

The person who told Jiang Li about this was none other than Jiang Jingrui, the young master of the second house.

There are two young masters in the Jiang family. Jiang Jingyou is older but has a good temperament. He is said to have average knowledge, so Lu chases him every day to force him to take the imperial examination. Jiang Jingrui has a violent temper, but no one dares to chase him to make him take the imperial examination. As long as he doesn't cause trouble outside, everyone will be happy.

After Jiang Li ridiculed Jiang Jingrui last time, he hadn't come to Fangfei Garden for a long time. On weekdays, he would take a detour when he saw Jiang Li. Of course, Jiang Li didn't bother to pay attention, but today, Jiang Jingrui appeared at the door of Fangfei Garden again.

Mingyue and Qingfeng were embroidering at the door. They were startled when they saw Jiang Jingrui and said, "Second Young Master."

Jiang Jingrui coughed lightly, asked if Jiang Li was inside, and then walked in swaggeringly.

In the room, Jiang Li was reading a book. Tong'er knew that Jiang Li and Jiang Jingrui had a quarrel last time, so she stood aside and said nothing. Bai Xue was making scented tea in a corner of the room. She was a carefree person, and seeing that Tong'er didn't greet her, she didn't get up either, and just sat on the small stool and looked at the teapot.

Seeing that no one in the room was paying attention to him, Jiang Jingrui felt a little uncomfortable and a little angry. He sat down opposite Jiang Li, saw the book in front of Jiang Li, and said, "What book are you reading? Do you understand it?"

This man always speaks so annoyingly, he is indeed a spoiled dandy. Jiang Li looked up at him and asked, "What can I do for you?"

Seeing that Jiang Li finally paid attention to him, Jiang Jingrui was very happy for some reason. He didn't care about the disrespectful attitude of the maids and masters in the room towards him, and immediately said: "Let me tell you something. My uncle is going to invite a teacher for you!"

Please, sir? Jiang Li was a little surprised.

"I came here to tell you as soon as I heard the news. I heard that my aunt said to my uncle that with your talent, it's impossible for you to learn anything. Just find an ordinary teacher to teach you the basics so that you won't embarrass yourself in front of others. Just pretend to be good enough."

"That's too much!" The handkerchief in Tong'er's hand fell to the ground with a "pop". "What qualifications does our girl have? Our girl has very good qualifications!"

Jiang Jingrui glanced at Tong'er and shook his head: "Auntie is not serious about finding someone to teach your daughter. She just wants her to become a fool. I heard that uncle has handed all the matters over to auntie. The teacher that auntie found can make Jiang Li suffer a little."

Jiang Li didn't say anything. Jiang Jingrui coughed softly again, seeming a little embarrassed, and said, "I also want to help, but our second house has never interfered in the affairs of the first house. If I mention this to my mother, she will scold me to death. I think you should go to grandma. Grandma is a very fair person. I will say a few words for you. If the gentleman is chosen by grandma, he should not be bad."

Jiang Li stared at him. It seemed that Jiang Jingrui had finally chosen to stand on his side after being ridiculed last time. Whether it was because of the friendship between him and Miss Jiang Er in the past, or because Jiang Jingrui was originally a compassionate person, the facts proved that this young man was not bad.

Jiang Li said: "Thank you for coming to remind me." This time, her tone was much softer.

Hearing the change in Jiang Li's tone, Jiang Jingrui was inexplicably happy. When he came to his senses, he wanted to slap himself. He was a little bully in the Jiang family. Even Jiang Youyao didn't dare to provoke him easily. He looked down on everyone. But for Jiang Li, a person with a bad reputation and no status in the mansion, Jiang Jingrui always felt a little scared or in awe.

Always trying to please her.

Jiang Jingrui cursed himself in his heart and asked Jiang Li, "What are your plans now? When are you going to see the old lady? Tell me and I'll go with you."

He is willing to stand out and stand by me. After all, he is still a passionate young man.

Jiang Li said, "I just don't understand why my father chose a teacher for me. You know, the noble ladies in the capital have always been attending the official women's school." "Official women's school?" Jiang Jingrui was stunned for a few seconds before saying, "Are you kidding? The ladies who go to the official women's school are either rich or noble. The Mingyi Hall in Yanjing City accepts female students who are both virtuous and talented. Even the worst ones are extraordinary among people. If you go..."

If you go, it will be a joke! Jiang Li understood what Jiang Jingrui had not finished saying.

"However," Jiang Jingrui asked curiously, "You actually know about the official school for girls in Yanjing City. You have found out a lot about it."

Jiang Li smiled and said nothing. When she came to Yanjing City, she was famous for her beauty and her talent. She even debated with the gentlemen of Mingyi Hall and became good friends with them.

At that time, all this was done to give Shen Yurong more opportunities. It always sounded like a glorious thing for the top scholar to have a talented wife to add to his beauty.

Of course, her beauty and her talent became her misfortune and her sin after she was found to have an affair with someone.

Jiang Li was not willing to stay in the Jiang Mansion forever. If she did not go out, she would not have the opportunity to meet Shen Yurong and her group. If Jiang Yuanbai really hired a teacher for Jiang Li, Jiang Li would only study and practice calligraphy in the backyard of the Jiang Mansion, which would inevitably reduce many opportunities.

Besides, she was no worse than anyone else in terms of reading and writing. She wanted to enter Mingyi Hall not for real study, but for fame.

With fame, the Jiang family would no longer treat her as an insignificant lady, and she would have status. With status, people would be able to make friends with her, and once she had a circle of friends, she would be able to get closer to Princess Yongning step by step.

Does it take a long time? It doesn't take a long time. In Mingyi Hall, her talent can make her famous in the shortest time. This is the simplest way.

Seeing that she didn't know what she was thinking, Jiang Jingrui waved his hand in front of Jiang Li's eyes and asked, "Have you thought about it? When are you going to see your grandmother?"

"I don't want to see my grandmother." Jiang Li said, "I want to see my father."

"Uncle?" Jiang Jingrui was stunned. "You can't convince uncle. Once uncle decides something, no one can change it unless grandma says so. Since he has decided to let aunt find a master, it's a done deal. It's a waste of effort for you to go to him. Don't make yourself angry."

"Thank you for your reminder." Jiang Li said, "But I still need to go see my father."

"Why are you so stubborn?" Jiang Jingrui said unhappily.

"It's not stubbornness," Jiang Li said with a smile, "it's persistence."

She will persevere to the end.
