Chapter 243: Her Knowledge Was Not Inferior to Anyone

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chu Tianbao went to the courtyard to handle the fishes. Bai Wutong stood where she was, but her heart had not stopped beating.

She had never thought of marrying a man and having children to start a family.

When her gaze landed on Chu Tianbao’s tall back, she smiled happily.

If it were Chu Tianbao, she was willing to give birth to a child with him and live in this house forever.

Chu Tianbao’s way of handling the fish was like a brilliant action film, making one’s eyes unable to catch onto his moves.

After a while, half a basket of fishes was cleaned up by Chu Tianbao.

He went to the kitchen again and poured the crabs into the sink to wash carefully. He steamed them in the pot while they were fresh.

Bai Wutong leaned against the door and watched him busy himself. He was wearing an apron and looked like a peerless good man. His handsome face was even more charming.

She walked over, put her arm around his lower back, and leaned quietly against him.

Chu Tianbao turned his head. “l am stinky.”

Shaking her head, Bai Wutong said in a low voice, “It’s okay. It smells good.” It was a smell that belonged to Chu Tianbao.

Chu Tianbao tried his best to brush the crabs gently so that she could lean more steadily.

Chu Tianbao was preparing for a grand wedding ceremony for Bai Wutong when the Imperial Court suddenly sent news that King Chu had won the battle!

Without killing a single commoner, he worked together with people inside to break through the Imperial City and officially ascended the throne.

The first thing Emperor Lingkang did when he ascended the throne was to grant amnesty to the world, reduce taxes, and announce that the imperial examination would resume next year.

When Woqian Town received the news, everyone was in an uproar.

Youjia Village originally had to pay 40% food tax, but now they only needed to pay 20%. The food harvest that year was completely enough for them to eat for an entire year.

The students of Qinghe Academy were even more excited. The imperial examination would resume next year, so they had to study even harder this year.

Bai Wutong did not have much of a reaction. In any case, Chu Tianbao had no intention of becoming an official in the court, so it did not affect them much.

While everyone in the village was overjoyed, Little Peach was very unhappy.

Her father, Zhao Sheng, participated in the autumn harvest event and was lucky enough to get tenth place. He obtained an exquisite gift bag.

Zhao Sheng gave it all to her brothers, but he did not give her anything. The reason was that she did not need to study.

After Zhao Erwa and the others entered Qinghe Academy, no one played with her. From time to time, they would even discuss how many words they had learned that day, showing how much they loved studying.

Other than reading and learning new words, she also wanted to ride a horse, learn martial arts, play chess, and play the zither...

But she could only pick up the paper her brothers had used and beg them to spare some time to teach her how to read.

Zhao Sheng received a big gift bag and even gave the other family branch some, but he did not give her anything.

Even a small eraser made would have made Little Peach happy. But there was nothing. Nothing at all.

She was very sad and hid under a tree in the backyard, crying.

When her mother discovered her, she wiped her tears. ‘Tell me, what’s wrong? Did Brother bully you?”

Little Peach shook her head and choked. “No.”

Her mother frowned worriedly. “Let’s go back to your room and tell me what’s wrong. ”

“No.” Little Peach looked stubborn.

“Then I’ll take out a bamboo cane!”

Little Peach immediately wiped her tears and said obediently, “I’ll go back to my room with Mother.”

Her mother smiled. The bamboo cane was indeed useful.

When Little Peach and her mother returned to the room, her mother asked, “Tell me. What’s wrong?’

Little Peach muttered, “I want to go to school with my brothers.”

Her mother frowned. “Your brothers are going to take the scholar examinations in the future, but you can’t.”

Little Peach replied fiercely, “l can take the test too! Brother can’t read as fast as me!”

Her eyes were filled with tears, but this made her mother laugh. ‘What woman would take the scholar examinations?”

She was already so sad, but her mother was still laughing. Little Peach emphasized angrily, “1 can! I can!”

Her mother restrained her smile. “Alright, you can do it! Little Peach can become the female top scholar in the future.”

Little Peach could tell the patronizing tone in her words and cried even harder.

No matter how her mother coaxed her, it was useless. She threatened her with the bamboo cane, causing Little Peach to run out of the house full of sadness.

Her mother chased after her and happened to meet Cui Lingyi, who had sent Cui Muzhi to school.

Cui Lingyi saw her stumble forward and stopped her. ‘What’s wrong?”

Little Peach’s mother said angrily, “This child keeps thinking about going to the academy! Why would a girl like her go to the academy!’

Little Peach hugged Cui Lingyi’s thigh and sobbed, her eyes filled with confusion. “Madam Cui, why can’t women go to school and become the top scholar? I’m clearly not any worse.”

She cried pitifully, hoping to get some consolation, but she also sounded like she was questioning things.

Cui Lingyi looked through her eyes and recalled her own memories.

“Father, this world belongs to men and women. Why can’t I become an official in the court?!”

Cui Shize sighed. ‘Who asked this world to be a system set by men?”

If it were now, she would definitely refute Cui Shize at that time. ‘This world belongs to men and women. The system can also be changed!”

Cui Lingyi suddenly made a decision. She squatted down and told Little Peach, “It’s not that women can’t study, and it’s not that women can’t be the top scholars. In the future, there will definitely be a day when women and men become officials together.” Although she didn’t know when it would be, it would definitely happen.

Little Peach’s eyes lit up. “Really? Can I study like my brothers?”

Cui Lingyi nodded. “Sure, I’ll teach you.” Her knowledge was no worse than anyone else’s.

Little Peach’s mother was stunned. ‘Madam Cui?’

Cui Lingyi smiled brightly, and her entire body seemed to be glowing. “I like Little Peach very much. Since Little Peach wants to study, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. If Sister-in-law Zhao agrees, Little Peach will be my student in the future.’

Cui Lingyi was the benchmark for a daughter of an aristocratic family. Her mother-in-law even nagged every day that she must make Little Peach become a well-mannered lady like Cui Lingyi.

Cui Lingyi taking the initiative to teach Little Peach was a perfect opportunity for her. She said excitedly, ‘Thank you, Madam Cui. If you need anything, I’ll prepare it now! ”

She also said, “We will also prepare the apprenticeship gift and tuition fees!”

With that, she realised that she had said the wrong thing.

Who would talk about the apprenticeship gift and tuition fees directly?

However, Little Peach’s mother did not know how to ask. She was really too inexperienced.

She was also very worried that there would be a lot of things to prepare. She heard that the nannies of big families cost at least two taels of silver a month.

Cui Lingyi saw the embarrassment on her face and smiled. “Second Aunt Zhao, you don’t have to prepare anything. Just hand over Little Peach to me.”

Little Peach’s mother hurriedly said, “How can that be? Who doesn’t pay for an apprenticeship gift and tuition fees when studying?”

Back then, in order to learn how to forge iron, Zhao Sheng had even worked as a laborer for eight years for free. Little Peach’s mother was not knowledgeable, but she knew how to be polite..
