An autumn rain swept away the last trace of heat. After the rain stopped, the autumn air was clear and crisp, a time of comfort. Wen Zhang went to the book pavilion, holding a thick book. Yuquan Academy was quite famous in the Jiangnan generation. Before the late emperor moved the capital, most children of distinguished nobles were enrolled there. After Lin'an became the old capital, the children of aristocratic families who did not follow the move to the north still let their children study there.
In addition to those who "passed the day," there were also those who genuinely wanted to learn. The two groups usually stayed on the same page. At Wen Zhang's age, he was originally unable to enter school. However, he was enlightened early, had a solid foundation, and possessed a great aura. He could keep up with his homework. The mountain chief also thought of Taifu Xia, so he recruited him to study. Wen Zhang loved to read and helped the gentlemen organize their books after school.
Halfway through, he was stopped by someone. Wen Zhang tilted his head from behind the book, and just as he was about to speak, he met a pair of unkind eyes and subconsciously shut up. "Are you Wen Zhang?" the visitor asked coldly. Two more people came over from behind, laughing and joking: "Besides Wen Zhang, who else is there in this academy?" The man from before looked at him with disdain and said, "I thought you, the Wen family, were exhausted at the age of 18 and were extremely poor. It turns out that you still have food left over, and you don't even care about the box of good things."
"How could I know those things?" Wen Zhang asked. "What box?" "You go back and tell your sister that it is her blessing that the young master of the Ji family likes her. While the young master is still patient, she should go to Shunping uncle's house to apologize in person," the man said. "People need to be self-aware. Your grandma, stop using your second sister as an excuse, over and over again; it's embarrassing!" Wen Zhang was angry. He didn't know what had happened to Ji Zu recently, but he had heard about it when Mrs. Gui lost face in front of Mrs. Bo.
After reading the other party's words carefully, he could guess a lot about what had happened. Wen Yan is his biological sister. Although Wen Hui is not enthusiastic towards him, she has never been hostile or suppressive. Wen Zhang is well-educated and knows etiquette. How could he listen to others belittling his grandmother and sisters like this? "Our family has made it clear what they mean by returning the box," Wen Zhang said. "People need to be self-aware. What does it mean for your Ji family to do it again and again?" The man was bullying Wen Zhang's little boy, but he didn't expect that he would be betrayed by the general.
Seeing someone gathering around him, he couldn't help but become angry from shame. Mrs. Gui had a good nap and was in high spirits. She asked some women to play leaf cards and asked An to accompany her. An hesitated and said: "Old madam, I will..." "Did I miss your role or did Sanlang not give you any money for your personal use?" Mrs. Gui glanced at An, "It's just a matter of meaning. The hands of the mother-in-law and the maid are not so tight, so you are hesitant." An's face turned pale, and she sat down without any further excuse.
After playing for an hour, Mrs. Gui was in a happy mood. When she saw a woman coming in in a panic, she said, "What's wrong? You're so anxious!" The woman said with a bitter face: "Second Master and Third Master are injured. They said they were fighting with someone in the academy." Anshi threw away all the cards in his hand: "Brother Min, how can you fight with others?" Mrs. Gui's smile also condensed on her face. Not to mention Wen Min can't fight, Wen Zhang doesn't look like one either!
In Xiyuan, Wen Yan got the news and hurried to Changshou Hall. Wen Min and Wen Zhang were already there. Wen Min's arm was blue, and the corner of Wen Zhang's mouth was swollen. Wen Yan's heart skipped a beat: "Where else are you injured on your body?" Wen Zhang
