 Chapter 206: Don't Get Too Close to the Lu Family

Shu Yu's refreshing voice came from the front of the carriage. "Our family wants to send Da Hu to school. We don't know as much about this as you do. I wonder if Tang Xiucai knows any teachers or suitable schools that we can consider." The old lady's eyes lit up. "Yes, yes, Tang Xiu, tell us." Tang Wenqian was somewhat surprised. "Sending Da Hu to study?" "Yes, Ah Yu said that we don't expect him to pursue official ranks, but being able to read and understand will make things easier for him in the future." Tang Wenqian looked puzzled at the figure outside the carriage through the crack in the curtain. He didn't expect her to say that they didn't expect him to pursue official ranks but wanted him to read and understand. He paused for a moment, then came back to his senses and said in a low voice, "There are three enlightenment schools in the county town. One of them has particularly strict discipline, one has a not-so-good reputation, and there's one that's suitable, but the teacher there has some family relationship with the former county magistrate. When the former magistrate got into trouble, the students at that school were afraid of being implicated, so many of them stopped attending classes. The teacher decided to temporarily suspend classes. I estimate that they will reopen once this matter is over." The old lady frowned. "Are there any others?" "The teacher who taught me enlightenment before had extensive knowledge, and he would be suitable, but unfortunately, he went to the capital city for teaching last year," Tang Wenqian said. "There are a few private schools in town or in Jiang's Village, but those places are far away, and it's not convenient for Da Hu to travel every day." The Lu family had few members, and Lu Erbai had injured his leg. They heard he also opened a shop, so there weren't enough people to spare. Unless Da Hu lived at the school, it was simply not realistic to expect daily pick-ups and drop-offs. The old lady was very worried. In the past, she worried because they didn't have money for schooling, but now that they had money, there wasn't a suitable school, and she was still worried. However, Shu Yu had already thanked Tang Wenqian. "With Tang Xiu's analysis, we have a better understanding. We will discuss it at home and consider which school is more suitable." "Well, if you have any further questions, you can ask me." As they spoke, the mule cart arrived at Shishi Village, not far from the entrance of Tang's house in Shishi Village. So Shu Yu directly stopped the mule cart at the doorstep of Tang's house. Tang Wenqian got off the cart and thanked the two again. The old lady handed him the meat and candies. "This is a token of appreciation for helping us last time. You must accept it. Everyone else will received theirs." However, Tang Xucai's portion of meat was clearly larger than the others. Upon hearing this, Tang Wenqian did not refuse and said, "Thank you." The mule cart started moving again, while Tang Wenqian remained standing in place, watching the cart grow distant. When Tang's mother came out, she saw her son staring ahead, lost in thought. She was surprised and waved her hand in front of him. In the next moment, she noticed the meat he was holding and exclaimed in shock, "You... Did you buy meat? And such a large piece! Didn't I tell you to buy some delicious food for yourself instead of bringing things home? Your father and I won't starve ourselves." Tang Wenqian snapped back to reality and smiled as he walked inside. "I didn't buy this. It's a thank-you gift from the Lu family. I just came back on their mule cart." "The Lu family?" Tang's mother furrowed her brows and sighed, "The Lu family has money now, sending such a large piece of meat as a gift. The second daughter of the Lu family is not bad, although a bit fierce, and she doesn't have a good reputation. It's better for you not to get too close to the Lu family in the future."
