Mrs. Liao looked at the account book and heard the maid report that Miss Six was here. She immediately ordered the maid to hurry up and bring the food and drinks she had prepared for her daughter.
"Rong'er, why didn't you sleep a little longer today?"
Mrs. Liao couldn't help but be happy when she saw her daughter.
She touched her daughter's little face and asked with some distress: "After I left yesterday, did you secretly get up and read again? Look, your eyes are all blue!"
Seeing the true love on her mother's face, Tu Huirong felt that her next plan might come true.
When classmate Sheng Yuan said before that we should focus on the key points when looking at problems, and we should also focus on the key points when solving problems, she was a little confused and did not understand where to find the key points she said.
But after a night of tossing and turning, she realized.
The point is not vague and uncertain. Although it is invisible and intangible, it depends on actual encounters.
What she is facing now is that her grandfather ordered her to drop out of school and return home.
The focus is naturally to solve this problem.
Classmate Sheng Yuan said that this person must learn to make himself happy.
As for her, she naturally doesn't want to leave the academy, or in other words, as long as she is not trapped in the house.
So the focus she was dealing with at the moment was to find a way to stay in the academy and study.
However, can studying in the academy really make her happy?
Tu Huirong thought for a while and shook his head silently.
No, no, no, no, what she wants, on the surface, is to study, but in fact, she just wants her ears to be clean, she wants the sisters in the house to stop laughing at her, and she wants to make the sisters in the house feel pity, helplessness, or... All the smiling eyes were gone.
So where is the focus of solving this problem?
This question puzzled her for a long time.
With her thoughts in turmoil, she felt like a trapped animal at a loss. She couldn't help but sigh: "It would be great if classmate Shengyuan was here."
When she thought of Sheng Yuan, a fair and rosy little girl with eyes always full of smiles and confidence emerged in her mind, and her ears could not help but echo the words that girl once said to Xia Shuangjun:
"Don't be too persistent when thinking about a problem. If you can't figure it out from the front, think about it in reverse; if you can't find a solution, try to find a way around it first, and then slowly figure it out. There will always be a solution."
She didn't know when this joke was remembered by her, and she kept repeating it in her ears until an idea flashed.
Tu Huirong discovered that she could not change other people's opinions, but she could change herself.
Hiding away in the academy to study was the most comfortable way she could get.
But what should she do to get her grandparents to agree not to drop out of school? !
The previous questions were answered, and the next ones popped up.
After spending half an hour sorting out the connections in the Tu family, she found that the only people who could truly help her were her brother and her mother.
But her brother was only twelve years old and had not yet been crowned. In the eyes of adults, he was still a child. He was soft-spoken and could not help.
Her mother can talk to her father, but her mother has always been virtuous and abiding by the rules. If she wants to persuade her mother to help her, she really has to grasp the key points of what classmate Sheng Yuan said.
Tu Huirong thought about it and asked her mother to take a walk with her in the small yard.
"Girl, do you have something to say?"
On the stone path in the small garden, Mrs. Liao smiled and asked her daughter, who was hesitant to speak several times: "You don't want to drop out of school?"
When Tu Huirong heard this, his eyes widened and he said nonchalantly, "How do you know what I want to say?"
"Zhinu Mo Ruomu, you crawled out of my intestines. How can I not know you?"
Mrs. Liao smiled and patted her hand: "This matter needs long-term consideration...but there is no rush. How old are you now? Even if we leave Jiujiang Academy temporarily, when the situation calms down later, we can still go to Ning's house Studying at Luming Academy."
"Luming Academy?" Tu Huirong didn't have this confidence. "My grandparents were very critical of what I did at Jiujiang Academy. If I really drop out, I'm afraid they'll just let me stay at home."
Ms. Liao smiled and looked around the branches among the flowers.
But his voice was much softer: "I heard some fragments of words from your father a while ago, and after thinking about it for a long time, I finally came up with some information... Your grandfather may be sending a granddaughter to study at Ning's Luming Academy. ...Don’t tell anyone else this.”
After Tu Huirong heard this, his expression was not very good: "Among the people of the right age, the fifth and seventh sisters are all similar to me. If my grandfather had to choose, he would not choose me."
"Why not?" Mr. Liao disagreed, "Fif Niang is introverted, not good at words and clumsy; Qi Niang is competitive and unstable. Who can compare to my Rong'er? Your grandfather once said, if you are a son of a bitch, He must be a good candidate for studying. Even among the eleven sons of the Tu family, there may not be any one with a better talent than you!"
Mentioning this, Mrs. Liao was both happy and depressed: "Speaking of which, your talent is half that of your brother's. Maybe I can still hope to be a prostitute in this life."
After saying this, she felt that it was inappropriate. She was afraid that her daughter would take advantage of her. She smiled and comforted her and said, "But it doesn't matter. If my son can get a title in the future, it will also appease my regret."
Tu Huirong felt a little sad when he heard this.
Her father married four wives in total. After his first wife divorced him, he married three more times. If the first wife was not counted, her mother was considered the third wife of the Tu family.
The first three wives gave birth to five sons and one daughter to her father. Because they formed a faction of their own, they were in love with her mother. As for her father, he bequeathed royal titles to both Mrs. Yuan, but he was no longer with her mother. movement.
One reason is that her father's official position is not high, and after applying for the title twice, the request for the title again is likely to be shelved.
Secondly, it was also her father's own thoughts.
Her father had a deep love for Mrs. Yuan who made him reconcile with his first wife, and he doted on the children born to Mrs. Yuan on weekdays, for fear that someone would treat them badly.
Little Mrs. Yuan is Mrs. Yuan's concubine. Her father is still very wary of her. Even the three sons she gave birth to together are not as important as Mrs. Yuan's children. He is afraid that little Mrs. Yuan will treat his beloved son and daughter badly. . You know, Mrs. Xiao Yuan is the biological aunt of his beloved son and daughter!
Therefore, if my mother wanted to be a royal servant, the only one she could count on was her brother.
etc!
Tu Huirong remembered what Mr. He had mentioned several times before...if a woman could take the imperial examination, wouldn't she also be able to win a royal title for her mother? !
Thinking of this, her heart suddenly started pounding rapidly.
Tu Huirong came here to ask for help, but now that she had hope, she naturally wanted to tell her mother.
When Mrs. Liao heard her whispering like this, she was so shocked that she dropped the handkerchief in her hand.
"This, this... how is this possible!" Her face was filled with surprise, hesitation, and fear.
"Mr. He, the inspector of the college, said it himself, and many other classmates have also heard about it, such as my classmate Sheng Yuan. She comes from the Duke Sheng's palace, and her father is the prince's cousin. The news cannot be faked!"
Ms. Liao didn't expect that mother and daughter would have such an opportunity. She was so happy that she wanted to cry. She clasped her hands together and kept thanking God.
After a long time, she held her little daughter's shoulders again and said excitedly: "Rong'er, don't worry, mother will definitely find a way for you to enter Luming Academy!"
