218 Hurry and Look For Master Chu

Elder Lin trembled all over, and his brain felt like it had been split open.

Beside Yang Quanzi was the prime minister two dynasties!

He tried his best to recall and felt a sudden shock. No wonder when he heard the name Cui Shize previously, he felt that it was strangely familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before!

It turned out that he was Prime Minister Cui, who had been exiled by a fatuous ruler after standing up for the commoners!

!!

Elder Lin recalled the past events that had happened in Lintian Village and Youjia Village in the past year and almost fainted.

Even though Prime Minister Cui was no longer the Prime Minister, everyone knew that a starving camel was still bigger than a horse.

Where did they get the guts to go against these people?!

God, why did he have to know all this!

Elder Lin stared at the crowd that kept surging towards Qinghe Academy and suddenly thought of his grandson, Lin Wang, who was studying in town.

He really didn’t make the best of his opportunities.

Elder Lin rushed home and hurriedly said to his eldest son, Lin Cheng, “Hurry up and go to town to bring Wangzi back. I’ll go to Qinghe Academy to help him register first!”

Lin Cheng was still a little confused. “Why?”

Elder Lin didn’t have time to explain and said angrily, “If I tell you to go, go quickly. Why are you wasting your breath?!”

Lin Cheng did not dare to delay further and immediately left to fetch Lin Wang. Elder Lin hurriedly returned to his room and changed into the most grand and presentable robe.

Those who came to register were all from big families. As long as he could build a relationship with them, the entire Lin family would be able to rise to the heavens.

As Lin Hu was working in the workshop, he was the first to know that these people were all trying to enrol into Qinghe Academy.

When he realized how awesome the teacher of Qinghe Academy was and how powerful his connections would be if he went to school here, he suddenly made up his mind.

Even if he fell out with his family, he had to send his son to Qinghe Academy.

Lin Hu took a day off from the workshop and hurriedly rushed home to ask their wife, Jin Xiuxiu, to take out the silver.

Jin Xiuxiu was stunned. “We don’t have any silver.”

Lin Hu knew that Jin Xiuxiu had saved up some money behind his back. “I want to send our son to Qinghe Academy to study. There are too many people now. We will be too late if we wait any longer. Xiuxiu, hurry.”

When Jin Xiuxiu heard that Lin Hu was sending their son to school, her eyes lit up. Without hesitation, she took out a small money bag from under the bed. There were only two taels and one coin in it, but there was also Jin Xiuxiu’s dowry – a silver bracelet, two silver rings and a pair of silver earrings.

Lin Hu took the small money bag and promised his wife, “Xiuxiu, I’ll definitely earn the money back for you.”

Jin Xiuxiu believed him but she was worried that her father-in-law would be unhappy and think that they were hiding money.

Lin Hu could tell that Jin Xiuxiu was worried. He gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t worry, I definitely won’t let you and our son suffer. At most, we’ll split up from the family!”

Jin Xiuxiu’s eyes lit up. If they could really split from the family, it would be great. She wouldn’t have to earn money to support other people’s sons in school.

Lin Hu took the silver and rushed to Qinghe Academy with Lei Zi.

There were suddenly too many people. The originally quiet Qinghe Academy became boisterous.

Lin Hu and his son queued up to register. Soon, the other villagers nearby who had heard the news, after much hesitation, also gathered two taels of silver and rushed over with their sons and grandsons.

If they did not hurry to register now, when more people around them knew about the academy, they might not be able to get a place.

The registration queue moved up bit by bit. It was finally Lin Hu’s turn.

Lin Hu had an indescribable reverence for scholars. He carefully said to Mr. Liu, who was in charge of registration, “Sir, this is my son, Lin Lei.”

Mr. Liu nodded gently. He was very different from the people in town who looked down on uneducated people.

Lin Hu was shocked. So there was such a kind teacher.

After Mr. Liu wrote down Lin Lei’s information, he gave them a bunch of items.

There were uniform that looked as good as Little Cat’s, pen, paper, books, school bag, and many other things. Even if Lin Hu did not know what was good, he could tell that these things definitely cost a few taels of silver.

Lin Hu suddenly became nervous. “Sir, do we have to buy all these things?”

He wondered if they accepted women’s jewelry.

Mr. Liu smiled gently like a spring breeze, making people feel very comfortable and at ease.

“No need. These are all given to every student by the academy.”

Lin Hu’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Is—is it free?” He stuttered.

Mr. Liu nodded when he saw this. He also told him that as long as the child studied hard, the tuition fees would be free of charge in the future.

Lin Hu was stunned. “Free?”

Mr. Liu nodded and looked at Lin Lei. “As long as your son studies hard, you don’t have to pay tuition fees. Every student who works hard will be supported to complete their studies.”

Lin Hu’s tears flowed out immediately. If that was the case, even if his father did not agree to split the family, as long as Lin Lei was willing to work hard, he would not have to worry about not being able to attend the academy.

No wonder Little Cat looked so happy every day. After obtaining so many things, he could still go to school for free, how could he not be happy?

Tao Yinzhen and hidden it too muwellch and actually didn’t tell everyone about this.

On second thought, if it was him, Lin Hu might also not have told the villagers.

With more students, the competition would be more stiff. It would be difficult for Little Cat to get a spot to be exempted from tuition fees.

Lin Hu’s eyes were red as he pried at his son’s shoulders. “Son, good luck! I believe you can do it!”

Even if his son could not get an ‘A’ grade, he had to let Lin Lei continue studying just because the academy did not have an ordinary teacher.

Lin Lei did not expect that he could go to school like Lin Wang. He secretly made up his mind that no matter what, he had to get a spot to be exempted from tuition fees.

After Lin Hu brought Lin Lei to sign up, Elder Lin also arrived dressed neatly.

But it was already a little late for him to join the queue.

...

He wanted to use his identity as Elder Lin to pressure the others and cut the line. In the end, for the sake of their child’s future, no one cared about him.

Elder Lin stomped his feet. He had no choice but to line up obediently.

Lin Hu looked at the long line and pulled his son into the crowd. He whispered to him, “When you get back, don’t say you have registered first, okay? If Lin Wang did not get a place, your biased grandfather might ask you not to go and get him to replace you.”

Lin Lei nodded sensibly. “I understand, Father. I won’t tell anyone.”

Lin Hu’s prediction was right. Too many people had come. The enrollment quota for Qinghe Academy was indeed filled very quickly.

Lin Wang did not manage to get a place. Elder Lin was filled with regret. If he had not gone back to put on his clothes, he would have definitely gotten a place.

So he instantly thought of Little Cat.

As long as Little Cat dropped out of school, there would be a vacant spot.

Lin Wang could replace Little Cat and enter Qinghe Academy, become a disciple of the Great Confucian, and become a good friend of the county magistrate’s grandson.

Elder Lin thought of Little Cat, and so did the others. Little Cat’s house was quickly filled with people.

In order for his grandson to enter Qinghe Academy, Father Tao also shouted at their door, “Unfilial daughter! Hurry up and get out!”

...

Tao Yinzhen looked out of the window nervously and bit her lip. If Chu Tianbao, who had an imposing aura, was here, these people would definitely not dare to touch them.

She hesitated for a long time and said to Little Cat, “Leave from the dog hole at the back and look for Master Chu. Beg him to help us. Otherwise, you won’t be able to go to school.”
