Chapter 690 Pen Pals in the Academy 7

Not far away, Ren Pingsheng, Li Haihuai and other teachers from the academy were standing not far away, watching everything that was happening before their eyes with a smile.

"It seems that they have been very successful in raising money this time."

“It’s mainly the male students who are willing to donate generously.”

"The one who produced the most seems to be Wu Ningde."

"Yes, it sounds like it's a full one hundred taels. I wonder what his family does?"

Many gentlemen looked at Ren Pingsheng. Ren Pingsheng stroked his beard and smiled: "Businessman."

In the academy, only Wu Ningde knew that he was the crown prince, and one other person, Li Haihuai, knew about it. No one else knew about it.

Yang Cui'e knew this because Wu Ningde once met someone from the palace outside the academy, and the person from the palace called him the prince, and she heard it.

She finally understood why her father did not hire someone to teach her at home, but instead asked her to come to Qingshan Academy and told her to hide her identity.

He also said that he would make his own arrangements when the time comes.

Li Haihuai's sight fell on Ali. She was smiling at those people, and no one knew what she said. Those people seemed to be in love and smiled like foxtail grass.

Ren Pingsheng looked towards Li Haihuai and asked, "Mr. Li wants to go over there too?"

Li Haihuai retracted his gaze and said, "No, that's the students' business."

"Then come with me to find a master craftsman who can build a bathhouse. I think we can start work tomorrow."

"Ah."

Ren Pingsheng left first, and Li Haihuai left later. He even looked back at the person sitting behind the long table. She had never smiled at him like that before.

At this time, Ali raised her head and looked over here, with the smile on her face becoming more charming.

Is it because you saw him?

Li Haihuai withdrew his gaze and slowly clenched his fist. He thought: Since she smiled at him, he would escort her to the imperial examination when the time comes.

Ren Pingsheng turned back to look at Li Haihuai, "Mr. Li seems to be in a better mood?"

Li Haihuai coughed lightly and said, "I'm always in a good mood."

Ren Pingsheng stroked his beard, smiled without saying a word, and the two figures walked further and further away.

On the other side, Yang Cui'e hid in the house, listening to the noise outside. She gritted her teeth and thought grimly: These people are too much. They are isolating her and laughing at her. They know that she has cleaned up the bathhouse, but now they want to build a new one!

She will work harder, and then she will trample these people under her feet!

?

A female student named Liu Xu came over with a pot of tea and poured it for everyone. She also brought a bowl to Ali and shouted enthusiastically, "Xiao Wanli, come and have some water."

"Thank you."

Ali moved her wrists. Her hands were sore after taking notes in a notebook for most of the day.

Liu Xu looked at the silver bills and copper coins in the big box. She said, "Just now, it was the male students who paid. Sisters, how can we fall behind? We should..."

Liu Xu dragged out her voice, and the female students nearby gathered around her instantly, "We have to overwhelm them!"

"Correct!"

"I'll give you one hundred taels!"

"And me! I'll give you fifty taels!"

"Then I'll pay less, twenty taels is fine."

Ali looked at these people with a smile. A pen was stuffed into her hand again. Liu Xu rubbed her shoulders and said, "Miss Xiao, please work harder and help us write it down."

Liu Xu also took out a new booklet from behind her.

Ahri smiled and said, "Okay, but you need to use more force."

"Okay, once you remember our names, I will serve you well."

Ahri's chin was lifted up by the catkins, and she pouted her lips seductively towards Ahri.

Ali was very surprised. Wow, I didn’t expect there was such a person among the female students.

After Liu Xu finished doing all this, she found that Ah Li's pair of smart eyes fell on her face. He pushed her away without any shyness or disgust. Her eyes flashed and she said, "Do you really want me to kiss you?"

Ahri curled the ends of her hair with her fingertips and raised her eyebrows slightly: "If you want?"

The people next to him felt a chill, "Liu Xu, Xiao Wanli, that's enough. Hurry up and write it down. Once you're done, we can go eat. We're all hungry."

Liu Xu then let go of Ali and took out the 100 taels of silver in his hand, "Remember this, Liu Xu."

As Ali memorized, he recited: "The pear blossoms are pale white, the willows are deep green, and when the catkins fly, the whole city is filled with flowers."

There was a slight flicker in Liu Xu's eyes, and she pinched her sleeves.

There are so many poems, but this person insisted on choosing this one.

Liu Xu pulled her sleeves tightly and left in silence.

Ali looked at Liu Xu's back and continued to remember the next person's name.

Someone whispered, "I heard that Liu Xu had an ambiguous relationship with a female teacher, and the female teacher even left the academy because of her."

"These are all rumors. The Master has already come out to clarify."

"No wind, no wave."

"okay."

After a few female students whispered to each other for a while, seeing that Ali had memorized it, they put the booklet into the box, carried it back into the room, and locked it with the key.

After they finished their meal, they began to count the money.

Also, Liu Xu came back. She stood on Ali's left and sorted out the rice paper.

The names in the booklet should be written on large pieces of rice paper and then posted on the notice board.

The person writing was Ali again. Ali wrote seriously. Liu Xu's eyes would occasionally fall on Ali's hands, face, and hair.

Like long black silk hair, a ribbon, and clean, slender fingers.

When Ali put down her pen, Liu Xu asked her, "Why did you smile at the Master and the others earlier?"

Ahri was slightly stunned. Did she smile at the Master and the others?

Ali had no recollection of this. She said, "I think it's because I've been laughing for too long. It's a habit."

"Oh."

Liu Xu spread the rice paper flat. She thought Xiao Wanli also had a special relationship with a teacher in the academy.

Soon, all the donated money for the day was counted, and the amount of silver on the list was the same as the actual income.

A female student said: "That's great! We will have a new bathhouse soon!"

After all, who doesn’t like taking a warm bath in the winter?

Ali didn't donate much, only one or two taels.

The others also understood Ali's family situation, and they didn't say a word. The donation was entirely voluntary.

?

The next day, construction of the bathhouse began.

If there is any money left, we will renovate other parts of the academy.

Ali still helped people copy books to earn money, and willow catkins rarely appeared.

As for Yang Cui'e, she is now working very hard and is very attentive when listening to the teacher's lectures.

At the same time, she isolated herself from everyone and went alone wherever she went.

Because she had a dream, in which she became the Crown Princess and lived a happy life with the Crown Prince.

Now among these people, some are officials in the court, but when they see her, they dare not look her in the eye, and some flatter her.

However, everything in the dream was not very real to her, and she did not dream about how she became the Crown Princess.

And there was Xiao Wanli, who hated her in her dream. She remembered that her eyes full of hatred were staring at her, as if she wanted to drag her and the prince into hell together.

The bathhouse was built quickly and the cold winter was almost over.

The snow on the roof began to melt, turning into snow water, which dripped down the eaves and fell into the small pits.

Most of the students of Qingshan Academy have also gone back home. They want to go back and spend the New Year with their families.

For a while, Qingshan Academy was very quiet.

The original owner was the type of person who, if one person was full, the whole family would not be hungry.

So, Ali stayed in the academy.

Liu Xu lived in the academy. She lit the lamp and said, "Let's make dumplings tonight."

Ali wrote the Spring Festival couplets and said, "OK."

Liu Xu is also an orphan, but she is an excellent cook.

Ali helped, and after Liu Xu chopped the meat filling, they started making dumplings.

Ali wanted to eat noodles, and Liu Xu said it was a small problem. She also fried several dishes and stewed half a chicken.

When the food was ready, Ren Pingsheng came with a lantern in his hand. He was wearing thick grey winter clothes and said, "Can you two finish all this food?"

On the table, there were noodles, dumplings, chicken soup, two plates of stir-fried vegetables, and a plate of stir-fried meat.

Liu Xu also secretly took out a bottle of wine. She and Ali hadn't sat down yet. When they saw Ren Pingsheng, they stood up quickly and shouted, "Master."

Liu Xu also said: "I was thinking of looking for you, come and try my cooking."

Ren Pingsheng smiled and said, "So, I am still lucky to have such a good meal. However, there is still one person in the academy who has not returned this year. Do you mind if I call one more person?"

"who is it?"

"Your Mr. Wu, Li Haihuai."

Liu Xu said, "Then call together, it will be more lively with more people."

Ren Pingsheng added: "I just don't know where he is in the academy now, so why not just not look for him and leave some for him."

"Let's go out and look for it. If we can't find it within an incense stick, we'll come back."

Liu Xu put the cooked food on the steaming plate of a big pot. There was hot water in the pot to keep the food warm.

The main reason was that she didn't cook much, and Ren Pingsheng was a big eater. By the time he finished eating, there might not be any leftovers, and the plate might even be licked clean.

Ali watched the familiarity between Ren Pingsheng and Liu Xu. She lit two lanterns and prepared to go out and look for them together.

Ren Pingsheng went out first.

Liu Xu took the lantern from Ali and said, "I have lived in the academy for a long time. During the New Year, we used to have..." Liu Xu stopped here.

She bit her lower lip, and seeing that Ah Li didn't seem curious at all, she continued, "It's just me and my master in the back, and now there's you. And if Mr. Li can come this time, it will be quite lively."

There was nostalgia in Liu Xu's eyes. There was a sachet hanging around her waist with the word "Nan" embroidered on it.

Ali heard from others that the lady who left was named Nan Sheng.

Liu Xu said, "Let's look for it separately. I'll go to the martial arts training ground and you can look for it yourself."

"it is good."

Ali noticed that Liu Xu's hand was on the sachet on her waist, and tears were welling up in her eyes. She must have missed that person very much.

Ali sighed lightly, she walked slowly with the lantern in her hand, and the next second, she thought of the back mountain.

There were no flowers or plants to see on the back hill at this time.

There are no stars tonight.

Ali thought that it would take about half an incense stick of time to go back and forth to the back mountain, and she was not sure whether she could find the person.

There are a few more wisps of fog in the back mountain.

There was dew along the way, and Ahri could feel a little cooler at the hem of her clothes.
