The mistress of the Hou family worked herself to death, and she did not serve after her rebirth

She knew exactly where the Imperial College was.

This is the cradle of the future backbone of the imperial court.

How could there be so many women in such a sacred and solemn place?

She thought for a moment that she was dazzled, and hurriedly lowered the curtain, rubbed her eyes, and opened it again without giving up, but the result was the same.

She hurriedly ordered people to stop the sedan chair and asked the people accompanying her to inquire about it.

Soon, the servant came back and reported, "Madam, it is said that the Imperial College has started to accept female students and has also added new female tutors. The woman you saw is the female tutor of the Imperial College."

"what?"

Shen opened her mouth in shock, and after a while, her heart finally calmed down.

Unexpectedly, such a big thing happened in the capital just over a year after they left.

The Imperial College actually began to recruit female students and had female teachers.

She knew very well how important it was to be a teacher in the Imperial College.

Thinking back to the time when her father-in-law was still the Imperial Tutor, how many powerful people vied to curry favor with their Pei family.

They were about to break down the threshold of the Pei family.

Since the death of my father-in-law, the Pei family has gradually declined.

Now I don’t even know about such a big thing.

If she hadn’t come this time, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have known.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but hate Pei Jiuniang.

Silly girl, not only did she marry into a wealthy family but she didn't even help her parents. Such a big thing happened, she didn't believe she didn't know about it. She should at least write a letter to inform her family.

Thinking of this, Shen's face became even uglier.

Seeing this, the servant hesitated, not knowing whether he should tell him the other things as well.

Fortunately, after Shen had digested it, she saw that he seemed to have something else to say, so she took the initiative to ask, "What else do you want to say?"

"Yes, it's about our eldest lady."

The servant hesitated. Although Pei Jiuniang had married and became the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion, the people of the Pei family still followed the old calendar and called her the eldest lady.

Shen's face tensed, and her tone was not very good, "What happened to her?"

"The man just now said that our eldest daughter is now a female teacher in the Imperial College. Our eldest daughter is now teaching foreign languages ​​and has been conferred a sixth-rank official position by His Majesty."

When the servant said this, his tone was light and he felt proud of it.

It was not until he met Shen's obviously unhappy expression that he suddenly remembered something and hastily suppressed it.

"What did you say? That damn girl, she went to the Imperial College to be a female teacher? She was also given an official position? Does she really not care about the Marquis' Mansion anymore?"

Shen, on the contrary, was not too happy, but a little worried. Although a female teacher was good, it was not polite for a woman to go out after all. Moreover, a sixth-rank official could not be as important as the wife of a first-rank military marquis.

Confused, but really too confused.

How could she be so confused?

It’s all her parents-in-law’s fault. They taught her to be lawless.

Shen couldn't wait and immediately asked someone to carry the sedan chair to the Marquis' Mansion. She had to persuade her in public and let her stop in time.

However, the position of female teacher and the sixth-rank official position cannot be given up for nothing.

She thought of her poor niece Yuyan.

It was all Pei Jiuniang's fault. She was so persistent in nagging at a small matter that she even forced her younger brother Shen Yulang, who had never suffered much since childhood, to be exiled. Once her father was exiled, Yuyan's reputation was ruined.

Yuyan is not young anymore and has reached the age to get married. If it weren't for Pei Jiuniang, Yuyan should have married into a wealthy family.

This time, in addition to asking Pei Jiuniang to bring Shen Yulang back, she also wanted to discuss with her and ask her to bring Yuyan to the Marquis' Mansion.

She heard that Gu Tingzhi had a younger brother named Gu Yanzhi, who was also the legitimate son of the Marquis's Mansion and was best matched with Yuyan. Although Yuyan was a few years older than him, as the saying goes, a woman is better than her mother, so they were the most suitable match.

But now, she changed her mind.

If her Yuyan could go to the Imperial College to be a female tutor and also hold an official position, wouldn't she be able to marry better?

Yuyan used to be the princess's tutor, so she is definitely qualified for the job.

Thinking about it, Shen felt that this trip was totally worth it.

at the same time.

Gu Lanzhi, who had not visited for a long time, rarely came to see Liu.

She had a reason for coming this time.

Ever since Chu Mingyue entered the Imperial College as a female teacher.

At first, she was not optimistic and even made sarcastic remarks in front of her parents-in-law. However, she did not expect that Chu Mingyue would gradually take root in the Imperial College.

She had met Gu Lanzhi on the street before and originally wanted to make things difficult for her and embarrass her in public. Unexpectedly, the prime minister's wife, who was out of her league, actually took the initiative to speak for Chu Mingyue. She was very polite to Chu Mingyue and said, "Master Chu taught my daughter very well. My daughter said that she likes Master Chu very much. Master Chu, please come to our house more often when you are free in the future."

As he said this, he glanced at Gu Lanzhi again.

Gu Lanzhi was furious and thought that the Prime Minister's wife must have been bewitched, but gradually, she found that more and more people respected Chu Mingyue.

Even Chu Mingyue's parents-in-law, who had not supported her before, felt a little regretful.

Later, she heard that Pei Jiuniang also went to teach at the Imperial College and was given an official position. She became even more restless.

Why can they all go, so she has to go too.

But she told her father-in-law and husband, and they both looked down on her. This greatly irritated Gu Lanzhi, so she took the initiative to find Liu.

Because she heard that it was Pei Jiuniang who recommended Chu Mingyue to go to the Imperial College. Since she could recommend Chu Mingyue, she could definitely recommend herself as well.

She was talking to Liu when someone came to announce, "Madam, Miss, Madam Pei is here."

"Just come."

Gu Lanzhi said impatiently.

The other party was stunned for a moment before he said, "I'm not talking about the mistress, but Madam Pei."

"Why is it her? What is she doing here?"

Liu was somewhat displeased. She didn't like Shen at all. Thinking back to when she went to the Pei family to ask to marry Pei Jiuniang, old Tutor Pei was still alive. Shen had said a lot of sarcastic things to her, looking down on their Marquis' Mansion in her words and deeds, and even said that their Marquis' Mansion was a ruined family.

But now.

The Marquis' Mansion was at its peak, but the Pei Family fell into complete decline due to the death of Old Tutor Pei.

"Mother, this is not good. She is here at this time. Could she be targeting the Imperial College? Mother, you may not know that Shen has a niece named Shen Yuyan. Shen loves her more than her own daughter. I heard that Shen Yuyan was a companion to the princess before. Others have found a good home, but she has not. I think she is probably here to ask Pei Jiuniang for help."

"How can that be possible? Pei Jiuniang is already a member of the Marquis' Mansion. How can she do things for an outsider? If she wants to do something, she has to do it for you first."

Although Liu was angry with Gu Lanzhi before, she was her own daughter after all, so she still knew how close they were.

"My mother is still good to me, but, Pei Jiuniang..."

"Don't worry, let's go wait for your elder brother. He can't help but speak for you."

Liu asked someone to wait at the door and invite Gu Tingzhi over once he was on duty.

When Gu Tingzhi was on duty, he was directly invited to Liu's place. After hearing about what she cared about, Gu Tingzhi did not say anything.

At the same time, Pei Jiuniang took time out to teach Yu Ge every day. Today she taught Yu Ge a Fan language song as usual. It was a very nice song, also a Fan country folk song, which talked about the beautiful scenery of Fan country. Pei Jiuniang sang a line, and Yu Ge sang a line. At first it was fine, but gradually, Pei Jiuniang couldn't find her own tune. Once she couldn't find the tune, she forgot the lyrics.

But her brother Yu was howling at the top of his lungs.

The words are all right, but the tune is off.

But Brother Yu was unaware of this and was still howling with great concentration and devotion.

She couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Brother Yu looked at her in surprise, "Mother, am I wrong?"

"Every word you said is correct, but Brother Yu, let's not sing it anymore in the future."

Pei Jiuniang said that no one is perfect, and her brother Yu is already good enough in other aspects, except singing.

Shen was invited into the courtyard. After entering the courtyard, the servant hurried to report to Liu and asked Shen to wait for a while. Shen waited and waited, but no one came. So she wandered around the huge courtyard of the Marquis's mansion alone with a maid and a nanny, like a headless fly.

He unexpectedly broke into Gu Xijue's yard.

Gu Xijue saw Shen was stunned for a moment, then he remembered to stand up and greet. "Hello, grandma."

Shen was stunned for a moment before she remembered who the other person was. Since she didn't want to hit someone who smiled at her, she took the initiative to touch Gu Xijue's head, and then asked Gu Xijue to tell her where Pei Jiuniang was.

Although Shen didn't say it, Gu Xijue knew that Shen was angry.

And he was happy.

He felt particularly comfortable when Pei Jiuniang was not feeling well.

He knew that Shen and Pei Jiuniang were not on good terms, which was really the best thing.
