After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

Chapter 56: Sichuan Academy is open for business!

After a day or two of tidying up, the quaint and simple little courtyard is finally ready for business!

Gu Nanxi was dug out of bed by Su Yunyan early in the morning and dressed up.

Su Yunyan held a brocade robe with small clusters of flowers in her left hand and a wide robe with five-color embroidery in her right hand: "Lumei, which one is more suitable?"

Lu Mei was busy tying up Gu Nanxi's hair. After taking a glance, she said, "A wide robe with five-color embroidery! The master is going to be the head of the mountain today. A brocade robe with small clusters of flowers is a little too petty."

Gu Nanxi was confused and was very surprised: "When did I become a mountain chief?"

Su Yunyan picked out her robe and went to choose shoes. She said as a matter of course, "You are the biggest investor. If you don't become the headmaster, who will dare to be the headmaster?"

Mom!

Gu Nanxi was extremely anxious. Why didn’t this little girl inform her earlier?

How could I give a speech in front of that group of learned teachers and students when I hadn't made any preparations?

You can't just speak in plain language!

Time is tight, even if I want to hire a scholar to write the manuscript, it's too late!

Gu Nanxi felt uneasy. Was her identity as a time traveler going to be exposed today?

What a pity for the good old days when clothes are provided for you and food is provided for you...

"How many teachers and students are present today?" Gu Nanxi asked sadly.

Su Yunyan didn't even blink, and said lightly: "Oh, you are both the headmaster and the teacher, and the only student is my brother."

Silence is Cambridge tonight.

After a long time, Gu Nanxi finally found his voice: "If it is of this scale, why not set up a small courtyard in the mansion to serve as a school? Why waste the one thousand taels?"

Su Yunyan didn't say anything. When everyone arrived at Baichuan Academy, she found an opening and pulled Su Xuanming to a corner. "Brother, mother asked you to expand the enrollment. Recruit students and teachers, and compete with Imperial College and Songshan College!"

Su Xuanming took a deep breath and said, "Are my mother's expectations of me so high? She thinks Baichuan Academy is better than Songshan Academy? Can I do it?"

Su Yunyan clenched her fist and encouraged him: "Mother has even taken out one thousand taels, so of course she believes in you! Mother has also prepared several silver notes, and will give them to you when Baichuan Academy reaches a higher level!"

Su Xuanming didn't know how to start for a moment. His little heart was moved by his mother's trust, but at the same time, it was weighed down by the heavy burden.

"Brother, my Baiweilou will become the best in Kyoto! Can't your Baichuan Academy do the same?" Su Yunyan provoked.

"Yes, right?" Su Xuanming felt very nervous. He was like a child who has not yet learned to walk. His goal is to climb to the top of a snowy mountain. He is not very confident.

"But my mother said you can!"

"Then I can!" Su Xuanming said with a firm look.

A'niang is the goddess of the river, with boundless magical powers and extraordinary skills!

When the brother and sister came back from cheering each other up, the opening ceremony of Baichuan Academy had already begun.

The steaming hot pot warmed up the drafty courtyard.

Gu Nanxi, dressed in gorgeous clothes, called out to his adopted sons and nearby neighbors: "Don't be polite! Eat as much as you can!"

Su Yunyan blinked, unable to believe that such a lively scene was happening in the school.

"Mother, have you spoken yet?"

Gu Nanxi picked up a piece of pork belly, put it into the boiling mushroom soup pot, rinsed it, and then put it into the chive dish. After the pork belly was covered with green chives, he stuffed it into Su Yunyan's mouth with chopsticks.

"Told it."

Su Yunyan regretted that she had delayed too long and did not hear her mother's teachings: "What did you say?"

“One person, one academy; one flower, one world; one leaf, one bodhi.”

Su Yunyan was confused and felt that these words contained infinite Zen meaning and were very inspiring.

After eating and drinking, Gu Nanxi reminded Su Xuanming: "The books in the study are extremely valuable. You should send someone to guard them and be careful with fire."

"Okay, grandma."

After Su Xuanming sent Gu Nanxi and Su Yunyan away, he hired Li Daniu to guard the academy for one string of coins, including food and lodging.

Then, he and several other brothers prepared to go out to recruit students.

Chen Yixuan sat in the carriage, writing on the enrollment flyer in a scribbled manner: "Brother, doctors don't come to our school, and the same is true for this school. How can we rush to attract students?"

Su Xuanming numbly stamped the flyer: "If we want to catch up with Taixue and surpass Songshan, we must find another way!"

Chen Yixuan put on a veiled hat, resigned himself to getting out of the car and handing out flyers: "Baichuan Academy, would you like to know more?"

"No, no. I'm preparing for the match against Songshan Academy."

Li Mingde stopped a child half a person's height and said with a straight face: "I see that you have a unique bone structure and a special talent..."

"Get out! How dare you, a beggar, come to my house to kidnap me! Someone come!" The burly woman picked up a broom and beat the man all over his face.

Li Mingde covered his face and quickly ran out of the alley, feeling terrified.

"Hahaha, Li Mingde, I was wondering why you guys skipped school, turns out you came here to be beggars!" Wu Fatian sat on a tea stall at the entrance of the alley, glancing at everyone.

Hearing the familiar, arrogant laughter, the second-floor windows of the surrounding shops were opened one after another, and many heads popped out from inside.

Li Shaoyan, who was standing beside Wu Fatian, pulled his fox cloak closer, squinted his eyes, and said lazily, "How long do you want to continue this farce? As students of Songshan Academy, you should not accompany Su Xuanming and embarrass yourself!"

Li Mingde choked and said, "What does it have to do with you?"

Li Shaoyan chuckled: "For the sake of our friendship, I'll give you a suggestion. Songshan College and Imperial College have already made a clear announcement that they will hold a new entrance examination this winter. You will definitely not be able to recruit these students. Why not recruit some six or seven-year-old children?"

Li Shaoyan challenged Su Xuanming who came hurriedly, "After all, Su Xuanming's academic level is comparable to those children."

"Hahaha."

Laughter spread.

Su Xuanming bowed to the crowd of people watching the show and took the opportunity to promote it loudly: "Our Baichuan College is determined to become a comprehensive academy that integrates elementary school, private school, martial arts, law, medicine, etc. If you are interested, you can come and investigate."

The scene was filled with uproar.

"Good fellow! We still underestimated the vision of the wife of the Marquis of Yongchang! Her target is not the Imperial College, nor the Songshan Academy, but the Imperial College!"

"Madam Hou is really bold! Isn't this a slap in the face of the Imperial College's chief academic officer?"

"It's more than just a slap in the face of the chief priest! You forgot that the Imperial College is that person's back garden!"

"Incredible, truly incredible! The Marquis's wife is even more strong-willed than that seven-foot-tall man!"

When the news reached the palace, the young emperor drank several glasses of wine without telling Concubine Tong: "It's so refreshing! It's really refreshing! As expected of my elder sister, if you don't make a move, it's fine, but once you make a move, you'll go straight to the dragon's head!"
