Chu Chi, whose brain worked slowly, finally reacted after the confrontation between her eldest son and her uncle was over, and nodded vigorously.
"I want to go home! I want to be with An'an and An'an. We agreed before that we would never be separated, mother and child."
Although the words were a bit confusing, the meaning was very clear.
She already has someone she wants to protect.
Minister Chu has never been a stubborn person, otherwise he would not have raised a son like Chu Suizui.
After much investigation and what he saw with his own eyes that day, he knew that this niece was different from ordinary people.
It not only refers to her extraordinary strength, but also the difference in her understanding of the ways of the world.
When faced with a child with such a character, you certainly cannot treat her with the normal attitude you would treat younger generations. You need to consider carefully.
As for the current situation, if I want to keep this niece, it seems that I must first make arrangements for the child in front of me.
"Uncle knows. Go find your third brother first. He has prepared some small things for you. I will chat with this child later."
Lao Chu's experience was not given in vain. He understood very well that each monkey should be tied up in a different way, and that the right medicine should be used for the right disease.
He stroked his beard and thought about how to deal with the situation.
Chu Chi looked at An An, and the little boy nodded.
"Mom, go find your third uncle first and ask him to help find a box so we can put the gifts in when we go back."
"Oh well."
No matter when, Chu Chi would always take Congming An'an's request seriously.
Minister Chu watched his niece scurry away from him and accidentally pulled out a strand of his beard.
Look at it, this child of his own has no regrets about being cheated!
Ugh.
He turned his gaze back to Lin Youan with frustration. He pondered for a moment, and after sorting out all the messy thoughts in his mind, he asked in a deep voice.
"I heard that you have already received enlightenment? Who is your teacher?"
He is asking even though he knows the answer.
The talkative son at home had already recounted the details eight hundred times, so he naturally knew the child's background.
Recalling the case file handed over by Lingqiu County, Minister Chu looked at the child and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
His father was the top scorer in a prefecture, and it was said that he was also a brilliant man when he was alive.
Anfeng Prefecture is a place where literature is prevalent. If someone can take the exam normally, he will definitely become a Jinshi. He might even be able to get the first place!
A Jinshi in his twenties, who was a son of a farming family and had worked hard to pass the exam, should be praised by everyone as a young talent.
How could I inexplicably die from the jealousy of others?
Thinking that the court might have lost a talented person, Minister Chu couldn't help but sigh. It was really a pity, so hateful!
What does the prefect of Anfeng Prefecture do for a living?
They even dared to conceal the death of a candidate who was taking the exam!
If the Lingqiu County Magistrate had not dared to report to the Ministry of Justice over the head of the chain of command, the imperial court would have been completely kept in the dark!
A member of the Zheng family, right?
Humph, unless I skin your Zheng family alive this time, I will not be able to relieve the anger in my heart.
Lin Youan's eyes flickered and he answered honestly.
"My late father was my teacher, but something happened in my family later, so I neglected my studies for a while. But I have picked it up again, and now I am studying under Master Li Cunxiao."
After thinking about it, he explained again.
"Master Li's teacher is the old headmaster Zhang of Green Willow Academy."
Minister Chu had been wondering about who the talented Li Cunxiao was, and how come he had no impression of him. But when he heard about Green Willow Academy, he smiled.
"Oh? Is it Zhang Yuming?"
Lin Youan nodded.
"Exactly."
It turns out that Dean Zhang really has connections in the capital!
No wonder the master gave me so many instructions before I left. If I have nowhere to go in the capital, I must remember to tell others who his master is!
Children are inevitably a little curious, so they couldn't help but ask.
"Uncle, do you know our old headmaster Zhang?"
"Well, we are old acquaintances, I guess."
Minister Chu pointed at a chair and motioned for him to sit down, then he stroked his beard to clear his mind.
“That old fellow and I were originally of the same age. I was lucky enough to win first place, and he came in second.
However, he is too upright and too rigid in his behavior, so he is really not suitable to be an official.
Sure enough, later he stubbornly confronted the late emperor.
"The fact that he was able to escape unscathed was a result of the great efforts of his ancestors in the underground world!"
Thinking of those high-spirited years, Minister Chu's eyebrows and eyes were a little excited. But in the end, he still couldn't help but sigh.
"Alas, time can easily leave people behind. In the blink of an eye, I can only call myself an old man."
After expressing his feelings, he continued.
“I have heard that he opened the Green Willow Academy, and that he trained many important figures in the imperial court.
Well, I guess his talent wasn't wasted."
A straight-forward character?
Are you a rigid person?
Who are these people that my uncle is talking about?
How did the old concierge who was always competing with his disciples in wits and courage get involved with these eight words? !
Lin Youan was speechless for a rare moment and wanted to roll his eyes.
Minister Chu looked at him, and thought it would be better to get straight to the point.
"You'an, logically speaking, your hometown is in Anfeng Prefecture, where the literary style is prevalent and quite good.
But, have you ever considered coming to Beijing to study?
After all, at the foot of the emperor, whether it is the academy or the learning atmosphere, your future will definitely be better than in your hometown, what do you think?"
Because his niece was so dependent on this kid, Lao Chu had to take a roundabout route. If he pinned this kid down in the capital, would his niece still be able to escape?
Anyway, no matter what, you can't just throw your own good girl into the countryside to fend for herself.
His Chu family is not a small and unrefined family like the Gu family, and they would not do such immoral and reputation-damaging things.
"I heard that you have a younger sister at home, right? No problem, just send someone to bring her over. It's not like the mansion can't support a child.
Just let your mother stay here with peace of mind and stop wandering around the world.
I don’t have any other requests.”
God knows how much effort Minister Chu put in to get himself to say the word "your mother".
I have a beautiful young girl in my family, but she became a mother for no reason. It’s nonsense to say that she is not upset!
But he can't be Chu Chi's head of the family, the facts are obvious.
Currently, the head of his niece's family is the eight-year-old brat in front of him!
