Gu Qingshan approached the mother and son.

Just then, Jingyou was heard talking excitedly about what he had seen and heard at Wang's school today.

"It's a big archery range. We can practice archery for an hour in the afternoon."

"But we were too young to ride on docile ponies and pull tiny bows and arrows."

"The Wang family has older brothers and sisters. Even the sisters can draw the bow and shoot arrows. It's so cool!"

……

Gu Qingshan immediately stuffed cotton into his chest, making his breathing heavy.

At such a young age, he can play with the children of such top noble families!

He can even practice horse riding and archery! What about Gu Huai?

Because Mr. Zhang passed away, Huai'er was spoiled by her grandmother and mother and always slept until noon!

When Huai'er woke up, Jingyou might have already read and practiced calligraphy, and learned a lot of things, right?

If this continues, won’t the gap between the two children get bigger and bigger?

Gu Qingshan clenched his fists tightly, and the blood in his body rushed to his head... His child cannot be worse than Jingyou! Absolutely not!

As soon as they arrived at Chongming Hall, before they sat down, Gu Qingshan spoke, "Tell Huai'er to go to school with Jingyou tomorrow."

Song Mingli and Jingyou looked at him in surprise when they heard that.

Gu Qingshan’s face was burning… He recalled the absurd things that happened today. He originally wanted to coax Song Mingli and bring them closer.

But he left his words halfway and went to Cuiweiju and slept with Aunt Cui.

He was upset and looked at Song Mingli with resentment.

It was her! She pushed him out using the excuse of being unwell!

It was she who called Xiao Cui in, and even though she knew that the woman was a little witch, she still wanted to keep her to make tea!

Therefore, Song Mingli bears a large part of the responsibility for his ridiculous behavior!

Madam Gu and Madam Sun also looked at Gu Qingshan.

The two of them didn't ask, but their faces were full of suspicion... Didn't they go to Qichiyuan to talk to Song Mingli about this matter in the morning? How come they haven't discussed it yet?

Gu Qingshan took a deep breath, "Mr. Zhang left, and I can't find a suitable one for the time being, so I asked Gu Huai to follow Jingyou..."

Song Mingli curled his lips and said, "It's not easy to get into the Wang and Cui family schools. Jingyou was recommended by others and was able to go to school.

"Sir, do you think that with the reputation of our Changning Marquisate, we can go there just by saying so?"

Everyone present understood this.

But saying it out loud was like slapping him in the face!

He clenched his fist and looked at Song Mingli. This woman really only had a nice appearance! But her words were full of disgusting poison!

"If Jingyou can go, why can't Huai'er go?" Sun said sharply, "If you can send Jingyou, you should also try to send Huai'er! We are the relatives' children, please take care of them! You are so biased, aren't you afraid of being criticized?"

Gu Qingshan gritted his teeth and glared at Song Mingli.

"How could I have such face? I was not the one who sent Jingyou to study at the Wang family." Song Mingli said slowly, "When Jingyou was at the Song family, playing with his uncle, he met Prince Jing by chance. It was the prince who was so kind that he recommended Jingyou to study at the Wang family."

There was a sudden silence in Chongming Hall.

Gu Qingshan and Sun's expressions both cracked for a moment.

The mother and son looked at each other strangely.

"Prince Jing... have you seen this child?" Sun's voice trembled.

Song Mingli nodded, "Right, anyway, my brother said that he asked for help from Prince Jing."

The veins on Gu Qingshan’s forehead tensed up and jumped violently.

Prince Jing! I met Prince Jing again!

Didn't Prince Jing disown them as mother and son? Why did he care about Jingyou's affairs? Why did he find the best school for Jingyou?

He was so angry that his eyes went dark.

Just give up like this? No, he was unwilling to do that!

With his current strength in Kyoto and the Gu family's reputation in Kyoto, they couldn't hire a better gentleman than Mr. Zhang!

Not to mention the professors who can stand on equal footing with the Wang and Cui family scholars!

He must make Huai'er surpass Jingyou!

“Let Huai’er pretend to be Jingyou’s study partner! Is that okay?” Gu Qingshan gritted his teeth, as if he had made a huge concession.

"Study companion? How can that be possible!" Sun objected sharply, "Study companion is a servant's job! How can Huai'er be Jingyou's study companion?"

Song Mingli shrugged and sat down aside.

See, even without her objection, Sun and Gu Qingshan would have a quarrel.

“Instead of letting him go with a tutor, mother hired a tutor for him?” Gu Qingshan said with a gloomy face.

Sun snorted, "I am an elderly woman, where can I find a husband for him?"

“Then please, mother, don’t say any more!” Gu Qingshan said with suppressed anger.

Sun snorted, looking reluctant.

Gu Qingshan looked at Song Mingli, "Let's do it!"

Song Mingli smiled, "Why don't you ask Gu Huai what he thinks?"

“He’s just a kid, why ask him? I’m naturally doing this for his own good!” After saying this, Gu Qingshan asked someone to bring Gu Huai over.

He told Gu Huai to let him be his companion and go to study in the clan schools of two major aristocratic families.

There was already hesitation on Gu Huai's face.

Jingyou smiled and said, "Don't worry, when we go to Cui's house tomorrow, Mr. Zhang will be there too. We are all acquaintances."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Huai's face changed drastically, and he shook his head repeatedly, "No, I won't go!"

Gu Qingshan was furious and raised his hand to almost hit him.

Sun screamed and rushed over, holding Gu Huai in her arms, "How can you hit a child?"

Gu Qing Shan was so angry that he was shaking, "I finally came up with this idea to let you enter the two family schools to study, but you are so disappointing?"

"The child is still young, just teach him slowly!" Sun said with concern.

Song Mingli and Jingyou sat quietly by the side, watching their family perform.

Gu Qingshan glanced at Jingyou from the corner of his eye… They were the same age, but Jingyou was half a year younger than Huaier. He was surprisingly calm, standing next to Song Mingli. He showed neither fear nor mischief.

Looking at Gu Huai again, he was hiding in Sun's arms, squeezing out tears while secretly looking at his face. He was really furious.

“Come here!” Gu Qingshan said with a dark face, “If you don’t want to go back to the countryside and still want to stay in the Marquis’ Mansion, come here now, immediately, right now!”

“Why are you scaring the child!” Although Sun was reluctant, she pushed Gu Huai over when she saw that Gu Qingshan was really angry.

Gu Qingshan suppressed his anger and warned Gu Huai in a deep voice.

Song Mingli's thoughts drifted back to his previous life.

In his previous life, when Gu Huai first arrived at the Marquis' Mansion, he could not stand the constraints of the Kyoto clan school.

He is used to living in the countryside.

Gu Qingshan and Su Yi were probably only concerned with their love in the countryside, and they thought the child was cute even though he was naughty. They were not strict with him.

Gu Huai thought Mr. Zhang was too strict and that there was too much to learn at Kyoto School, including memorizing books and practicing calligraphy.

Not only did he get angry, he would also secretly run to Sun to complain.

Sun would only pamper him and dote on him, and every time she would vent her anger on him.

In order to educate Gu Huai well, how much scolding and criticism did Song Mingli endure from Sun?

She was caught in the middle and felt awkward. When she told Gu Qingshan about it, he would just look at her solemnly and speak earnestly.

"She is my mother who raised me. My father is seriously ill and my grandmother is old. She is also having a hard time. Please take care of her! She said, just listen to me!

"She is an elder, she can say we are not good, but we cannot say that our elders are not good!"

Now she stayed away and let Gu Qingshan face Sun and Gu Huai on his own.
