Under Jiaohong's repeated urging, Jia She sent a letter of greeting to the servant and came to visit the next day.Xie Yan picked it up in person, let him into the study, and sent someone to talk to Lin Hanchuan.

Hearing this, Lin Hanchuan brought his maid to the study. He had seen all the women in Jia's mansion, but he had never seen any of the men except Baoyu, so he was very curious.

Unexpectedly, Jia She's description was completely different from what he had imagined. Lin Hanchuan was shocked to take a closer look, and saw Jia She's luxurious clothes, calm demeanor, a pair of peach blossom eyes hanging down, and his actions were rich and romantic.

Isn't he the most wretched person in Rongguo Mansion?Cao Xueqin why did you lie to me.Lin Hanchuan knew his fate at the end of his life, and he had always been indifferent. Even when he saw a handsome young man like Xie Yan, he could only admire him in his heart, but seeing Jia Shen's nearly fifty years old, he was so well-maintained, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

"What are you doing in a daze? Say hello to uncle." Xie Yan urged.

Lin Hanchuan stepped forward to greet him as he said.

"Niece, you don't need to be too polite. I'm here for no other reason. I think your cousin Cong is also at the age of entering school. My niece and son-in-law are well educated. I ask him to find a husband." Jia She waved his hand and said bluntly. I have come here.

"It's easy. I wonder if my uncle has heard of my father-in-law's Tingyun Academy?" Xie Yan couldn't figure out what Jia She was doing. After all, he was the eldest uncle in name of his wife. Don't treat me lightly.This meeting heard him say that he was just looking for a gentleman, so he agreed immediately and suggested.

"Didn't you drive it?"

"The two sisters opened it in the name of their father-in-law. He set up a small courtyard for his precious books and called it the library." Xie Yan had objections to the word "library". There are so many simple and elegant plaques, none of them are used.Libraries, this is too straightforward!

"Uncle, Cong'er must be bored alone in the mansion. If you go to the academy to study with everyone, have playmates and be able to compare yourself to each other, and have more teachers, isn't it better than in the mansion?" Lin Hanchuan interjected. road.

"That's a good idea. It's better to have others around when you're studying." Jia She recalled his school career. If it wasn't for a younger brother who was obsessed with studying, master, I wouldn't even want to read a word.

"It would be great if uncle could think this way. Tomorrow I will send someone over to pick up cousin Cong for school."

"Wait, one more person is available?"

"I heard that Cong's cousin is still younger. Could it be that Lian's second brother is also planning to study hard?" Xie Yan wondered.

"Lian'er is no material for studying! It's the ring under my second brother's knee. It's about the same age as Cong'er, and they just happen to be companions together. But speaking of your second elder brother Lian, is there any news about your nephew and son-in-law in the official department recently? " Jia Amnesty didn't want to see Baoyu either, but was happy to see Huaner's future.

"It is said that His Majesty intends to select some capable children from noble families. Could it be that Lian's second elder brother intends to do so?"

"Exactly, it will be next month. I have ordered Lian'er to study day and night, but he is weaker after all, so I am still a little worried."

"The selection of officials this time is different from the usual ones. The eldest uncle puts his heart in his stomach, and the second elder brother Lian must have a good future."

Jia Amnesty asked again, but Xie Yan refused to say anything, just reassuring him and ordering Jia Lian to prepare for the exam with peace of mind.

Lin Hanchuan was also puzzled, and after Jia She left, he asked Xie Yan:

"Master, why are you so sure? If the second elder brother Lian is not selected this time, be careful, uncle will blame you for talking nonsense.

"You don't know, it's not easy for ordinary people to report their names in the selection of talents by the Ministry of officials. They must be descendants of the noble family."

"Although the scope is a little smaller, rich and noble families also have well-educated young masters, and the second elder brother Lian may not be able to compare with them."

"It's not about learning. Your Majesty intends to choose some young men who are capable and hard-working. I'm afraid that the older generation just... The eldest uncle hides in the garden on weekdays and doesn't hear about world affairs. Second brother Lian has some hope. Besides. I heard that in Ningrong and Rongfu, Jia Lian was the only one who took the lead."

Lin Hanchuan didn't quite understand, but he didn't get entangled in this matter, so he sent Lin's family to find Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu made Jia Baoyu cry, and Shi Xiangyun told her that according to her usual temperament, she would definitely have a fight with the two of them, but this time she didn't know what happened, so she sneered and let it go.Hearing that Cuizhi passed on the words of Lin Er's family, he went directly to Daoxiang Village where Li Wan lived.

"Did Miss come here for something?" Li Wan hurriedly ordered Suyun to pour tea.

"Sister-in-law, it's Lan'er's business. Uncle went to my sister's house and asked Cong'er and Huan'er to study in the academy. If Lan'er is willing, she can also go with her."

"I heard that the eldest girl's books were all shipped out to open an academy. Could it be true? Where is the gentleman you invited?" Li Wan asked carefully when he heard that it was related to Jia Lan.

"My sister and I set up the Tingyun Academy in the name of my father. My brother-in-law invited you, sir. Although he is a scholar who has not passed the class, his articles are well written. It is suitable to teach them a few children."

"Why did the eldest girl and Mrs. Xie open an academy without saying a word? This is not an easy task." Li Wan is very shrewd in this regard, and Lin Daiyu's family wealth is in the hands of the old lady. Where did the little girl get so much money?

"The academy is not big, and it doesn't cost much. Speaking of which, I only added a few books, and the rest were bought by my sister." Most of the money was paid by my sister. Lin Daiyu originally thought that she could exchange some money for calligraphy and painting. But my sister insisted on stopping her, saying that she could only understand those calligraphy and paintings, Lin Daiyu still feels a little funny thinking about it now.

"Mrs. Xie is capable. In this case, Lan'er will ask the eldest girl, and I will prepare for him." It's not like Li Wan didn't know what the family school was like. It's also a bit laborious.

"There are pens, inks, papers and inkstones in the academy, and the clothes, food and food are all the same. Sister-in-law doesn't need to prepare anything for Lan'er, just go to school with Cong'er and the others tomorrow."

Early the next morning, Jia Huan and Jia Lan made an appointment to arrive at Jia Amnesty's place early and urged Jia Cong to clean up.

Jia Cong had no choice but to get up slowly and eat some snacks with them.

After a while, Xie Yan sent someone to pick him up. Jia Amnesty wanted to go for a walk with him on a whim, so he personally led the three children to Tingyun Academy.
