After dressing as a substitute princess

Chapter 20 Admission to Jialan College

Jialan Academy is located in the central area of ​​Zhaoye City. It is said that this academy has a special status, because the current dean of the academy is the wife of Grand Master Shen, who is also a brother.

It is very difficult for a brother to become the dean of an academy. Just looking at Qu Moting, you can understand that most of the brothers in Dazhao get married and circle around the one-acre three-point land at home like women, wanting to create their own. It's almost impossible to do your own business.

Unknowingly, the day of enrollment came, and tomorrow Chen Nuo was going to study at Jialan Academy, Cuiping and Cuizhu were busy packing their bags, because the academy stipulated that they could only bring one servant, so Chen Nuo planned to take the mature and stable Cuiping , while Cuizhu was left by him to take care of Chen Xiaobao.

After coming to Qu Mansion, Chen Nuo used potions to restore Chen Xiaobao's status as a brother. He did not intend to let Chen Xiaobao work as a servant in the outer courtyard.

When Qu Moting found out that Chen Xiaobao was his brother, he was very surprised. When he learned that Chen Nuo was protecting Xiaobao, he couldn't help being jealous, but Qu Moting also promised to take good care of Xiaobao.

Chen Nuo sighed again, and couldn't help but regret admitting that he was a relative of the Qu family. He originally wanted to use the status and power of the Qu family to contribute to his career, but he didn't expect to be arranged to study, or to go to the kind of special education Brother's academy, I suddenly felt like ten thousand grass and mud horses galloped away.

After dinner, Qu Enliang asked Chen Nuo to go to the study, and the father and son talked alone for the first time.

Chen Nuo felt uneasy and couldn't guess what Lao Qu wanted to say, but Qu Enliang took out a nanmu box from the shelf behind the desk and handed it to Chen Nuo, "Huai'er, this is something my father prepared for you. , enter the academy and study hard, and next year Dad will find a good marriage for you."

Chen Nuo took the box bravely, and couldn't help saying, "Father, Huai'er has just returned home, and wants to spend more time with grandma, father and mother, and is not in a hurry to get married."

"Nonsense, my brother is going to get married sooner or later. You are sixteen this year, so it's too late to talk about marriage." Qu Enliang sighed helplessly, some wrinkles appeared on his handsome face at some point .

Chen Nuo seemed to be struck by a bolt of lightning, "Father, what did you say just now, I, I want to get married?"

"Yeah," Qu Enliang patted Chen Nuo's shoulder heavily, "Huai'er, I feel very guilty for not taking good care of you all these years. You went to Jialan College, so remember to keep your eyes open and catch your breath. Seize the opportunity and find a good husband for yourself."

"Father, the academy is full of brothers, how can I find Mr. Ruyi?" In fact, Chen Nuo wanted to ask more, he didn't want to marry, could he choose to be single for the rest of his life?Whoever wants to marry a man will get goosebumps all over his body thinking about it.

"Don't worry, Jialan Academy will occasionally hold joint activities with the Imperial College next door, then Huai'er will have a chance." Qu Enliang said while winking playfully at Chen Nuo.

"But Dad, don't all marriages depend on the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker?" Chen Nuo asked unwillingly.

Qu Enliang was very open and reasonable, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, as long as Huai'er doesn't mess with the rules, Dad can still give Huai'er some convenience, and it's always more satisfactory to find it yourself."

Chen Nuo didn't know where Lao Qu came from with such emotion. Could it be that Lao Qu and Wang used to be married freely in love?

Chen Nuo immediately smirked and winked at Qu Enliang, "Father, how did you and mother meet?"

Qu Enliang was slightly stunned, wondering if it was Chen Nuo's illusion, but he seemed to see a sad look in his eyes, and then he heard Qu Enliang leisurely say: "Ask what love is in this world, my child, in the future you will meet someone you like I understand."

Chen Nuo twitched the corners of his mouth. He took the nanmu box back to the bedroom. Cuiping and Cuizhu came over curiously. Cuizhu asked, "Master, what is this?"

"I don't know, my father gave it to me."

Chen Nuo didn't intend to hide it from the two girls, but just reminded with a smile: "Father said that you are not allowed to tell others, do you want to see what is in the box?"

Both Cuiping and Cuizhu nodded. They also understood what Chen Nuo meant. It was okay, but they were not allowed to spread it.

Chen Nuo opened the box and found that there were more than a dozen banknotes, some jewelry and a jade pendant of excellent quality inside.

Chen Nuo was overjoyed at once, thinking that Lao Qu was a really good person, he was right in identifying this father, Chen Nuo counted carefully, each bank note had a denomination of 100 taels, a total of 500 taels, Chen Nuo saw it with both eyes Turning into two big golden ingots, he really got rich overnight!

Chen Nuo carefully counted the banknotes back and forth several times before looking at the jewelry in the box, a vermilion plum blossom hosta, a pair of blood jade earrings, a gold necklace with a red jade gourd hanging on it, and a red dove egg the size of a pigeon egg. Jade ring, these kinds of jewelry are obviously a set, but he doesn't understand why Qu Enliang gave him a set of jewelry, is it for him to exchange for silver?

Cuiping was surprised when she saw that set of jewelry, "Master, this is the Phoenix Blood Jade, but it is a treasure that is hard to find."

Chen Nuo couldn't help but say, "Oh, that must be very valuable."

Cuiping almost breathed out, "Young master, this set of jewelry is not something you can buy with money, and the slaves have only seen one set at the old lady's. The old lady is very precious, and she only takes it out when she worships her ancestors during the Chinese New Year." Wear it once."

Chen Nuo was overjoyed when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked Cui Zhu to bring a box with a lock, and then put the set of jewelry away properly.

Chen Nuo was the last to pick up the green jade pendant. This jade pendant was transparent in color, and even he who didn't know jade could tell that it was the best. "Cuiping, what is the material of this jade pendant?"

"I don't know, young master, what the master gave to the young master must be good things." Cuiping was also happy for Chen Nuo. The fact that the master gave the young master these treasures in person showed that the master valued the young master, and as the young master's personal servant, she also felt that The face is stained with light.

Chen Nuo found the word "Zhiyun" written on the jade pendant, but he didn't know who this Zhiyun was?

The next day, after having breakfast with her grandmother, Chen Nuo was going to go to Jialan Academy. Li felt that the weather was fine today and she was in better health than usual, so she decided to take Qu Moting to send Chen Nuo to the academy.

The grandparents and grandchildren sat in the same carriage. On the way, Mrs. Li kept telling Chen Nuo what to pay attention to when entering the academy, "Huai'er, if someone bullies you, you must have someone report it to your family. Your father is the prime minister. As long as you Not the princes and grandchildren, no children of any family can bully the children and grandchildren of our Qu family."

Chen Nuo hugged Li Shi's arm and laughed, "Don't worry, grandma, grandson will take care of herself. Grandma, you should also go for a walk in the garden on weekdays. It's best to lay some pebbles on the garden path and walk every morning and evening." A trip can strengthen the body."

"Hey, silly boy, how can you keep fit on the stone pavement, Huai'er, grandma...Grandma hopes you are well." Li Shi secretly sighed, she had a private conversation with Qu Enliang, Qu Mohuai grew up in the countryside since childhood, Coupled with the fact that he is too old, it is difficult to talk about a good marriage with a high family, so it is better to let him go to the academy to try his luck.

In the Guozijian, there are not only ignorant and uneducated rich dudes, but also outstanding and intelligent young sons. It depends on Qu Mohuai's fate what kind of gentleman he will find in the future.

But more importantly, after Qu Mohuai enters the academy, he will never have the opportunity to get close to the prince. As long as Qu Mohuai does not marry the prince, no matter what kind of grandson-in-law it is, Li will accept his fate.

"Well, grandma, my grandson will be fine, and grandma must live a long life." Chen Nuo said this sincerely. Although he came to Qu's house for a short time, he could feel the old man's respect for him. Gracious and caring.

Jialan Academy stipulates that the parents of the students are not allowed to enter the academy without permission, and the students are only allowed to bring one servant with them, so Li Shi and Qu Moting just sent Chen Nuo to the entrance of the academy and left.

Chen Nuo and Cuiping each held a bundle in their hands, and Chen Nuo said to Cuiping, "Ping'er, we will live here from now on."

Cuiping pursed her lips and smiled, "Master, Ping'er will accompany you."
