MTL - Jade Without Fragrance-Chapter 342 flower just right

   Chapter 342 Flowers are just right

   The new emperor's enthronement ceremony is set in the golden autumn, when the fruits are harvested.

   If you say that you are free when you are a prince or a princess, when you become emperor or queen, it will be much more troublesome if you want to leave the palace.

   Taking advantage of the convenience of the moment, Qi Shuo and Lin Hao went out of the palace together to take a look at the newly built women's school.

  The two went to Prince Jing's mansion first, and did not let the servants inform them. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Prince Jing running after Qi Huan with a feather duster.

   Qi Huan saw Qi Shuo as if he had seen a savior: "Brother, why did you come here!"

   Seeing his youngest son hiding behind Qi Shuo, King Jing's feather duster had to be put down, and a smile instantly appeared on his face: "Shuo'er, hello, you are back."

  Look, what a good son and daughter-in-law, what a good son and daughter-in-law, the fourth family!

   "Let's see your second elder. What's wrong with your second brother?" Qi Shuo asked with a smile.

When King Jing heard this, his anger came up again: "Ask him to do a good job! I don't know where I heard that the girl of the Yang family went to the mountains, squatted on a tree and peeked at others, but she fell and fell in front of the girl of the Yang family, and was caught People are almost sent off as a disciple."

   Not long ago, King Jing and his wife made an engagement to Qi Huan and the daughter of Yang Guoan, a vassal official who had just returned to Beijing. It was a solution to their youngest son's life-long affair.

   King Jing felt that he had lost all his old face when he thought about the scene of the Yang family sending their young son back.

   Qi Huan felt aggrieved when he heard this: "Father, you and your mother and concubine were in love with each other at the beginning, and the eldest brother and the eldest sister-in-law were also in love with each other. Why did I decide it was my turn? It's not fair!"

   "What is decided directly, didn't you let you see it!"

"I've only met me twice, how can I see Miss Yang's true temperament--" Qi Huan paused and thought about it. Was it intentional!"

   King Jing and Qi Shuo looked at each other.

   Hmm... maybe.

   King Jing suddenly felt much better.

  Cough, someone finally took over to take care of this kid.

   Princess Jing came over and took Lin Hao's hand: "Let them make trouble, let's go in for tea."

  Lin looked at Qi Shuo with a funny look, and followed Princess Jing into the house.

   "Is the palace busy? Are you almost ready?"

   "Everything is arranged by a special person, so it's not too worry. Are you healthy? My sister is married. If you feel bored, send me a letter."

   Qi Qiong left the pavilion a few months ago, and the huge palace was deserted a lot.

   When Lin Hao mentioned Qi Qiong, Princess Jing felt a little uncomfortable.

   Originally, her daughter was married, and she had two sons and a daughter-in-law. It would be fun to have grandchildren, but now it's good, only one of them was left undisturbed and was almost returned by another girl.

   "Ah, is there any movement?" Princess Jing patted Lin Hao's hand and her eyes fell on her lower abdomen.

   changed to an ordinary woman, most of them would be embarrassed after hearing this, Lin Hao smiled generously: "Not yet, if there is good news, I will tell you as soon as possible."

   Princess Jing was even more depressed.

   She likes Ah Hao's bright and generous temperament.

   "Don't worry. When I was in the Northland, I heard a famous doctor say that when a woman is older and reproduces, it is good for both mother and child..." Princess Jing talked about some things that should be paid attention to when it comes to pregnancy and childbirth.

  Lin Hao listened carefully and did not feel impatient at all.

   She and Princess Jing knew in their hearts that when she became the queen, she would return to Prince Jing's mansion less often.

  Princess Jing can of course enter the palace, but it is better to speak freely at home.

   Didn't stay to eat, Qi Shuo and Lin Hao left under the reluctant eyes of King Jing and his wife and Qi Huan, and went to the General's Mansion.

   The two accompany the old lady for lunch and then went to the women's school.

   Women's School is not far from the fragrance-free flower dew shop. It is a quiet house in the middle of the noise.

   By this time, many people in the capital knew that this school for girls was established by the Crown Princess and some noble girls. It was much more popular than the school that was run by Lin Hao at the beginning, which specialized in recruiting the children of assistant workers.

  Especially the rich and noble family, they rushed to send the girls from the family, thinking that if they got the eyes of the nobles, they would have a good future.

  Lin Hao doesn't mind the thoughts of these people. In her opinion, if a girl who didn't have the opportunity to read and write gets the opportunity to read because of this, it is the meaning of women's education.

   It was the noon break, and cicadas were chirping in the school. Most of the female students were taking a nap, and some of them were active and playful in the shade of the trees.

  Lin Hao and Qi Shuo were accompanied by the head of the mountain, and listened to the head of the mountain talk about the recent affairs of women's school.

   When he was about to reach a clump of green bamboos, Lin Hao stopped.

  A 12- or 13-year-old girl was sitting on the floor with her back to Xiuzhu, and was concentrating on reading.

  Shan Chang smiled and said, "That child is named San Yu'er. Although his family background is ordinary, he has been very diligent since entering school."

  Lin Hao nodded and turned his direction not to disturb the serious students, when he saw someone hurried over and said something to the girl.

  The girl got up and went with everyone.

   Seeing Lin Hao chasing after the two, Shan Chang said, "That's the handyman who is in charge of spreading the word in the academy. It looks like someone is looking for her."

  The direction the girl was going was in the direction of the gate of the women's school.

   When it was time to leave, Lin Hao was a little curious about the little girl he met by chance, so he also went out, and when he stepped out of the gate of the women's school, he saw a young couple at the base of the wall pulling and pulling the girl, wanting to take the girl away.

   The doorman stopped the couple: "It's still school time, what are you doing?"

  The man showed a smile: "I'm her brother, I have a lot of work at home, take her back."

   The young woman was much more aggressive and sneered: "A girl's film, what's the use of reading, you don't have to waste money."

   Shan Chang frowned.

  Lin Hao suppressed his past thoughts and watched how the girl reacted.

  The girl said crisply: "My father took the bundle of repairs I studied, and I didn't spend any money from my brother and sister-in-law."

  The woman snorted: "Dad took all the money left over from the family when he went away, but there is not much money left for you to study. You go back with us and take care of your nephews and help the family."

"Your sister-in-law is right, what's the use of studying as a girl? If you don't eat or spend money, you can't become a high-ranking official in the imperial examinations. Isn't that a waste of money? Go home quickly, do more work and have a reputation for being diligent. In the future And marry a good family..."

  The girl slapped a string of copper plates into the man's hands, interrupting his chatter: "Is this enough to hire a worker for a month to take care of my nephew?"

   "Where did you get the money?" the woman asked sharply.

  The girl's back stiffened: "I won the first place in the first-class exam every month, and the Academy Award. As long as I take the first place in the exam every month, I will always be rewarded."

The    woman immediately changed her smile: "Yu'er, how much is the prize for the first place in the exam?"

   The dead girl has made a profit, and the shot is a piece of money, which is more than what her man earns in a month!

   "Apart from these, it's just enough for me to study. If my brother and sister-in-law ask me to go home, I won't be able to make a lot of money for both of them, and I'll be angry when my father comes back..."

  The young couple was persuaded and hurriedly collected the money and left.

The doorman was a woman in her forties who had experienced a lot, so she was very uneasy about having such a pair of brothers and sisters in the girl, and reminded: "Don't blame the aunt for being so talkative, I'm afraid they will come every month after getting the money today, and it will take a long time. A drop of money won't necessarily pay off."

  The girl smiled and said, "Just spend money to buy cleanliness. If I'm not satisfied, I will ask the mountain chief to make the decision. The mountain chief is the best—"

   "Cough cough." Shan Chang coughed.

   The girl's eyes lit up, and she hurried up to meet her: "Master, why did you come out?"

   Seeing Lin Hao and Qi Shuo, she was stunned for a moment.

   "Haven't you always longed for the princess who built the Women's School? You haven't seen it before."

  The girl suddenly opened her eyes wide, her face flushed with excitement, she never faced her brother and sister-in-law again: "I've seen Tai, Crown Princess—"

   Chief Shan explained with a smile: "Yu'er started school late, you didn't catch up with you when the school started."

  Lin Hao admired San Yu'er's courage to solve troubles at a young age, and asked her warmly, "Yu'er, do you think reading is useful?"

She is behind the    women's school. Those rich and noble families sent their daughters for the name of the picture. The most realistic thing for ordinary people is to be able to support their families.

  Fortunately, the industry around the flower shop needs more and more manpower, and most ordinary girls who have studied in women's schools can find a place in the future.

   The girl tilted her head slightly, and her bright eyes were full of inspiration and innocence: "Of course students find reading useful, and those who find reading useless will not be here."

  Lin Hao was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "If you encounter difficulties, you will find the mountain chief."

"Um!"

  Lin Hao and Qi Shuo said goodbye to the mountain chief and got into the carriage.

   There was a lot of people outside the car, and the car was quiet for a while.

   Qi Shuo saw Lin Hao pondering against the carriage, and shook her hand: "Take your time, it will get better and better when we can decide more things."

  Overseas is a huge treasure, filling the Great Zhou treasury, naturally there is room to change a lot of things.

   Lin Hao nodded, lifted the curtain to look out, and told the driver to stop.

   "I'll go to the flower shop, Ah Shuo, are you going?"

   "I won't go, just stroll around."

   "Then let's meet at the palace."

   The two made an appointment to separate separately. Lin Hao took Baozhu and several guards hidden in the dark to the flower shop. Qi Shuo walked aimlessly and unknowingly came to Tianyuan Temple.

  The temple, which was once crowded with pilgrims, has become deserted and deserted, and it seems out of tune with the surrounding liveliness.

   "His Royal Highness—" Thinking of the old prince who became a monk in Tianyuan Temple, Changning shouted in a low voice.

  Qi Shuo came back to his senses, thought about it, and walked towards the temple.

  Lin Hao went to the flower shop, and saw that everything was in order, so he didn't stay for a long time. When he returned to Ping'an Square by car, it was still too early for the time agreed with Qi Shuo, so he simply returned to the General's Mansion.

  The mother went overseas, and the elder sister was pregnant again and it was inconvenient to go out. She should accompany her grandmother more when she went out of the palace.

Seeing that Lin Hao was back, the old lady smiled brightly: "you girl worry about grandmother being lonely? Don't worry, grandma doesn't feel lonely at all, grandma thinks that your mother has someone who cherishes her, and you and your sister will too. Good luck, my heart is full, and every day has a taste."

   When she goes to see the old man in the future, she will no longer be worried.

   "Grandmother——" Lin Hao took the old lady's arm, "The shopkeeper Hu of Hualupu taught me to make a crab stuffed orange. After a while, the crabs are plump and I will make them for you."

  The old lady smiled and nodded: "Okay."

When    left, Lin Hao was still a little emotional.

   This time, when I return to the palace, I should not come out before Ah Shuo's enthronement ceremony.

  Thinking like this, she turned around and walked slowly in the garden of the General's Mansion.

  Every grass and every tree in the garden is familiar, familiar osmanthus, familiar magnolia, familiar rose trellis, familiar green wall.

   She walked to the fence step by step, raised her head slightly, she didn't think anything at that moment, she just did that.

   Seeing Lin Hao climbing up the wall, Baozhu's face did not change, and even took out a feather shuttlecock from his purse and kicked it.

  The colorful feather shuttlecocks fly into the air and are dazzling in the sunlight.

   Lin Hao, who was looking at the other side of the wall, was stunned.

   The young man under the wall smiled and opened his hands to her.

   After being stunned, Lin Hao raised the corners of his lips, and his smile was even brighter than the colorful shuttlecock. Without hesitation, full of joy, he rushed towards the man who loved her when he was young in his previous life.

   In this life, the happiness of her and Ah Shuo is like this solid embrace, and it will not fail.
