The general's wife knows medicine

Thinking that Yuan Mingkang had said so himself, she didn't know what to say, so she said, "Yes, the family needs to open up new land, and Lifeng has to go on a long journey. With only the old man as a laborer and a few of us women, there really isn't enough manpower. Mingkang should stay and help the family."

Tang Peipei shook her head, "Minkang is ten years old now. I don't ask him to study for the imperial examination. I want him to learn something so that he can really help the family when the family business is really successful." After thinking for a while, she said, "We don't have spring ploughing, so there's no need to rush the fields. Just work slowly."

"But..." Yuan Minkang wanted to say something but was interrupted by Tang Peipei.

"Minkang, let's take an example. Just look at your uncle and you will understand. If your uncle had learned to read and count when he was your age, would he still be afraid of being cheated when he went to Suzhou this time?"

Tang Peipei smiled at Lu Lifeng and said, "Uncle, please don't mind what I said."

Lu Lifeng waved his hand, "You are telling the truth." Then he persuaded Yuan Mingkang, "What your sister Peipei said is indeed true. Not to mention you, even I myself feel that if I can recognize words, I will feel at ease when I go out."

Seeing everyone saying so, Yuan Mingkang nodded and said, "Okay then, don't worry, I will definitely live up to everyone's expectations and study hard."

Lu Gang smiled and nodded, "That's right. From now on, you should study hard. Don't ask for fame or honor, just ask not to be blind."

Tang Peipei really admires old man Lu Gang. Sometimes he just says things that are spot on.

The next day, everyone performed their duties.

Tang Peipei drove the carriage to the city with Lu Xinyu.

After entering the city, Tang Peipei drove the carriage to the carriage park as usual.

"Do you know where Lieutenant General Yang lives?" Tang Peipei asked Lu Xinyu casually.

Lu Xinyu smiled and said, "I don't know."

Tang Peipei cursed in his heart, Hey, little guy, why have you become so smart now?

"Then how do we get there?" Tang Peipei asked again. Anyway, she had never been to the capital, and she didn't know anywhere except the outer city.

Lu Xinyu thought for a moment, "He is General Mu's deputy general. He either lives in the general's mansion or has his own mansion in the inner city. Let's ask him."

Tang Peipei nodded and said, "Well, our Xinyu is still smart. Let's go."

After saying that, he smiled and walked directly towards the inner city.

Lu Xinyu was speechless. She was sure that her sister must have seen through something and must have done it on purpose just now. Even the decision to take her into the city was intentional.

Even so, she couldn't turn around and leave, so she had to follow Tang Peipei.

Lu Xinyu roughly knew the direction, but she still pretended to ask as she walked.

"This is Lieutenant General Yang's home." Lu Xinyu looked at Tang Peipei and said.

Yang Tingzhen's family lives in a very ordinary house at the outermost edge of the inner city.

Tang Peipei walked forward and knocked on the gate.

An old woman opened the door, saw two girls, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Tang Peipei smiled and said, "Grandma, is this Yang Tingzhen, Deputy General Yang's family?"

When the old woman heard that they were looking for Yang Tingzhen, she smiled and opened the door, saying, "Yes, yes, yes, you are here to see Tingzhen, right? Come in and have a seat. He's out buying groceries for me and will be back soon."

Tang Peipei smiled politely and said, "Sorry to bother you, grandma." Then she pulled Lu Xinyu into the yard.

Grandma Yang asked the two to sit down in the yard.

Yang Tingzhen's house doesn't look big, but it is very tidy.

There is also a jujube tree in the yard. Now the tree has begun to sprout, and the tender green leaves show the vitality of spring.

Grandma Yang poured tea for Tang Peipei and Lu Xinyu.

"This is the tea I made myself using orange peels. You can try it." Grandma Yang smiled kindly.

She looks several years older than Chen Cuihua, and half of her hair is already white, but she still looks quite energetic.

Tang Peipei and Lu Xinyu thanked him respectively, took the tea and took a sip.

Tang Peipei was surprised and said, "Grandma, this tea smells so good."

Lu Xinyu also said: "Grandma's tea is really delicious."

Grandma Yang is alone at home every day. It's rare for two people to come and talk to her. When she heard them say that they liked the tea she made, her eyes narrowed into slits with joy.

"If you like, take some back later."

Tang Peipei said embarrassedly: "How can I be so embarrassed?"

Grandma Yang waved her hand nonchalantly, "I'm usually alone at home, and Tingzhen is always busy. I made a lot of this tea, but it won't taste good if it's kept for too long. If you like it, take some. I'm happy if someone likes what I make."

Tang Peipei was about to say something when the gate was pushed open.

Yang Tingzhen came in with a smile on his face, proudly holding up the pork in his hand, and was about to show off to his grandmother that he had bought pork suitable for making braised pork today.

As a result, when he looked up, he saw Tang Peipei and Lu Xinyu sitting in his yard, looking at him and smiling.

"Miss Tang, why are you here?" He said and quickly put the things in his hand back to the kitchen.

Seeing him coming out of the kitchen, Tang Peipei said, "Deputy General Yang, I need your help with something. Is it convenient for you?"

Yang Tingzhen was happy in his heart. Being able to help the future general's wife was a good thing that came right to his doorstep, wasn't it?

He smiled and said, "If there is anything inconvenient, just tell me."

When Grandma Yang saw Yang Tingzhen like this, she looked at Tang Peipei. She thought the girl was very beautiful and she didn't know if her grandson was worthy of her.

"It's like this. My uncle is going to Suzhou in two days, but he can't read or count. I want to ask you, can you help me find a reliable person to accompany him to Suzhou?"

Yang Tingzhen thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be so simple. Isn't it just a matter of finding Wood?

Patting his chest, he assured, "This is a simple matter. I will go find someone tomorrow, oh no, I will go find someone in a moment and bring him to the Hunter Village for you tomorrow morning."

Seeing Yang Tingzhen's firm commitment, Tang Peipei felt relieved.

Then he said, "There is one more thing I need to trouble you with."

Yang Tingzhen said: "You tell me, I will definitely help you do whatever I can do."

Hearing him say this, Tang Peipei felt embarrassed.

"My two boys want to study, so I want to send them to a private school in the city. Do you have any recommendations? They don't have to be very good, just those who are really willing to teach."

This really stumped Yang Tingzhen, a military general. He knew there was a martial arts school, but he didn't know where there was a private school.

I had no choice but to say, "I have to go and find out for you."

Unexpectedly, Grandma Yang, who was listening to their conversation, said, "No need to ask, I know."

"Grandma, do you know where the private school that Miss Tang is looking for is?" Yang Tingzhen looked at his grandmother in surprise.

Grandma Yang asked, "Didn't Mr. Fu, who used to live at the end of this alley, open a private school?"

Yang Tingzhen asked hurriedly: "Where is it?"

Grandma Yang thought for a moment and said, "It's in Dongyuan. You can go and ask. Mr. Fu was a Jinshi. Later, he stopped being an official and went to Dongyuan to open a private school."

Yang Tingzhen was naturally familiar with Mr. Fu. He remembered that Mr. Fu was a very easy-going person. Although he was a civil servant, he did not look down on military generals like others.

Unexpectedly, he later resigned from his official position and went to Dongyuan to open a private school.

Yang Tingzhen immediately took Tang Peipei and Lu Xinyu to East Garden.
