Rebirth Jade Fate

Chapter 21 The Academy

Chapter 21 The Academy
When Wei Qingtong appeared in the academy with his bag on his shoulders, the children all looked at him curiously. When they saw him take out books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones from his schoolbag, they all coaxed them to surround him.

"Brother Tong, what is this?"

"Sister said it was a schoolbag." Wei Qingtong replied slowly.

"Where did you come from?"

"My sister made it for me." Wei Qingtong was very proud.

"That's great, I want one too..."

"I want my mother to make one for me, my mother is very good at sewing..."

"I asked my sister-in-law to make it for me..."

"Brother Tong, can I take a look?" A weak voice sounded, everyone stopped and looked at Wei Qingtong eagerly.

Wei Qingtong digested their words, and the classroom was quiet for a while before Wei Qingtong nodded.

Everyone scrambled to see it, passed from one person's hands to another, and finally passed to Liu Qing's hands. Liu Qing looked at it over and over again. There were three bags in total, the middle one was the largest, and the front and back were smaller. It seems that it can hold a lot of things, but the needle and thread are not fine enough, but fortunately it is strong.

Finally he came to a conclusion, "This schoolbag is indeed more convenient, but it will be bad if it rains, so you still need to prepare the bookcase, not to mention that the imperial court will not allow you to carry it no matter it is the hospital examination, the township examination, or the general examination. This one who entered the examination room..."

Mr. Liu Qing talked a lot, but unfortunately, except for Wei Qingyu who was watching from the window, none of his students were listening.

The schoolbag finally returned to Wei Qingtong's hands. He was supported by Xiao Hei and stood on the stool, holding the schoolbag stutteringly and explaining: "This, put the book, put the paper, put this, put the box, this is delicious Yes." Wei Qingtong opened the last bag, saw that it was empty, pouted, and said aggrievedly: "Where's my delicious food?"

Xiao Hei pinched his waist and looked at them, "Who took it? Hurry up and take it out, this is my younger brother!" He looked fierce as if anyone who dared to bully him would have trouble with him.

Several people spread out their palms, and there were several pieces of candy lying in their palms.

A few children from Shili Street hurried forward to take it and handed it to Xiao Hei, who then handed it to Wei Qingtong.

Wei Qingtong laughed, and then took out some candy in his pocket again, grabbed several handfuls of candy and put them on the table.

Everyone's eyes lit up, eagerly looking at the sugar on the table.Although the Chinese New Year is just over and there is candy to eat during the Chinese New Year, the children never dislike the lack of candy. What's more, there are many children in the family and there is not much to eat.

Brother Tong counted: "One, two, three..."

Xiao Hei was impatient to hear him count, so he asked, "What are you doing with so much sugar?"

"Sister said, give it to the classmates," Tong Ge'er was interrupted and couldn't remember how much he had counted, so he had to count again.

Xiao Hei looked up to find the husband, and found that the husband was outside talking to Brother Tong's brother, Brother Tong, so he disrupted the candy on the table and said: "Isn't it just one for each person, just send it out. Come on, you guys Four come over, we will help Brother Tong distribute the candy, you are not allowed to bully him after eating Tong Geer's candy, or I will beat you."

Everyone responded, and stuffed the candy into their mouths as soon as they were handed out.

Outside, Wei Qingyu was handing Shuxiu a tael of silver to Mr. Liu, asking him to take care of Wei Qingtong, and took out a basket of eggs prepared this morning and gave it to him.

Liu Qing is used to parents sending all kinds of agricultural products to her husband, because that's what his family does, so she will take the basket and say very naturally: "The children can go home at noon, or they can stay in the academy. Those who are far away usually stay, and there are special meals for students outside, which are not expensive, and each meal only costs two yuan, if you stay, just tell me, and I will help you watch him."

Wei Qingyu nodded. She also considered this matter yesterday. Although this place is a bit far away from Wei's house, but she walks fast, carrying Wei Qingtong on her back, and it doesn't take much time to go back and forth.

After bidding farewell to Mr. Liu, Wei Qingzhen picked up the back basket placed in the corner of the courtyard and headed towards the largest academy inside, which contained eight rabbits and a pile of grass.

The management of Shuyuan Road is much stricter. There is a place at the entrance that collects stall fees. Those who go in to set up a stall must first pay the money here before they can get a fixed stall, otherwise they will be fined if they are caught.

The people next to him were very surprised to see Wei Qingyu coming to sell rabbits on Shuyuan Road, "Little brother, it's better to go to Dongshi to sell wild animals. The people who come and go here are all children."

Wei Qingzhen grinned, "I know, these are sold to young masters and ladies."

Anyway, it won't be long before everyone hears about her selling rabbits here at a high price. It's better to let her speak out, so as to avoid wasting my mind sneaking around.

Seeing that she didn't listen, the people next to her shook their heads and didn't care. They just muttered, "It costs five yuan to set up a stall here, but it only costs two yuan in Dongshi... What a prodigal."

According to Wei Qingyu's understanding, the academy started classes at about seven o'clock in the morning, one and a half hours at a time, and then had a half-hour break, and another one and a half hours, school ended at eleven o'clock, and classes resumed at two in the afternoon.

When the middle students are resting, everyone will come out to play, no matter if it is a boy or a girl who goes to the girls' school here.

And Wei Qingyu was lucky. The three boys who bought the rabbit yesterday were rich and knew many people. On the way back, the girls were very excited when they saw the white rabbit. Come on, just after class, a few girls meet up and come out to look for it.

As soon as the children came out, people who peddled all kinds of snacks stepped forward to greet them. Wei Qingzhen put down the half-filled schoolbag in his hand, picked up a rabbit and stood up.

A sharp-eyed man saw the rabbit she was holding in her arms, and several gorgeously dressed girls surrounded her, looked at the rabbit in the basket and said, "You sold the rabbit here yesterday?"

"Yes, ladies, see if you like it. Today's ones are the same as yesterday's ones. They are all one tael of silver each. I will also give you five handfuls of green grass."

"Let me see, hey, that one is good, show me that one."

Wei Qingzhen hugged her and showed her that these rabbits were very naughty in the space, but when they suddenly saw so many people, they were all very timid, and obediently shrank their necks and did not move.

A girl pointed to one of them and said, "Why is that one gray? It doesn't look good at all."

Wei Qingyu smiled embarrassedly, "I don't know what color the ladies will like, so I brought a gray one over to have a look. If the ladies like it, I will bring this color again next time."

"Then don't bring the gray one over next time, it's so ugly!"

"Who said that? I really like the gray one. It would be better if there is a black one." A boy stepped in, raised his chin and said to Wei Qingyu, "Hey, show me the gray one. "

Wei Qingzhen quickly hugged the gray one for him.

A tael of silver is still too high for these children. Although there are many people watching and interested, there are not many people who buy it. Fortunately, there are not many rabbits in the space. There are only seventeen or eighteen of them that she can sell. Anyway, she has plenty of time now.

All eight were bought, Wei Qingyu touched the silver in his purse, and heaved a sigh of relief, there was extra money in savings, but he was more confident.

"Sister Qianqian, why don't you buy it?"

Wei Qingyu looked up when he heard the voice, and saw the girl who was leading just now cast a disgusted glance at the rabbit, and said, "If I want to raise it, I will raise foxes, minks, and the like, so I won't raise rabbits."

"Fox, I heard that the sister of the Wu family raised one."

The girl named Qianqian sneered, "Her fox's hair is not straight, and it doesn't look good at all, and it cost 20 taels to buy it." The girl shook her head, walked them back to the academy, and said, "If I You won’t be fooled.”

Wei Qingyu's eyes lit up when she heard it. She caught a fox when she was a child. Although it was with the help of her father, she had some practical experience. Maybe she can try it.

Wei Qingtong pulled Xiao Hei and others out, looked around, and found no one, then took out candy from the other pocket, proudly said: "Here, I left it!"

A Shu, a kid on Ten Mile Street, said enviously, "You have so much sugar?"

Wei Qingtong nodded, "My sister gave it to me."

Two children said with sugar in their mouths: "Your sister is so kind to you."

Xiao Hei patted them, "That's his elder brother, but his nickname is Sister, we want to call her Elder Brother." Turning around, he praised Wei Qingtong, "Brother Tong is doing a good job, my father said that there is a difference between closeness and closeness. We are closer to you, so give us more delicious food, and they are less close to you, so give them less."

Wei Qingtong nodded half understanding.

Brother Tong struggled to get up from the bed, the whole room was dark, it took him a while to get used to the darkness, he went to see his sister, and found that she was sleeping soundly, remembering the agreement with Xiao Hei, he quickly woke her up, "Sister, sister, it's getting dark, it's getting dark."

Wei Qingyu yawned, "Go to bed when it gets dark." Turned over and continued to sleep.

Brother Tong hurriedly shook her, "Lantern, lamp, little brother Hei, look at the lamp."

Wei Qingyu opened his eyes, looked outside, and it was just getting dark. He got up and lit the oil lamp, dressed Wei Qingtong, and said, "Do you remember what my sister said? Let's go out to see the lanterns, and we must follow my sister closely." , you are not allowed to run around, if you are scattered by someone, you must call your sister loudly..."

Wei Qingyu really didn't want to take Wei Qingtong out. Usually this kind of lively time is also the most dangerous time, and there are no adults around them, but many people on Shili Street went, and Tong Geer's classmates also went. Tong Geer also agreed to others before, and she had no choice but to sell the remaining four rabbits during the Lantern Festival.

In the past few days, there are more and more people selling rabbits on Shuyuan Road, and the prices are very low, which is half lower than hers. Her business is getting more and more difficult.If these few rabbits can't be sold, they will grow up, and they can only stay and raise them.

Wei Qingtong hung up the schoolbag for him, put some food in the bag, and touched the bracelet on his hand. Wei Qingtong shrank his hand and hugged it in his arms.

Wei Qingzhen smiled slightly, maybe because Brother Tong is the owner of the bracelet, he is very sensitive to this, he is okay in the space, otherwise he would never show his bracelet to others, she is better, Xiao Hei begged him for so long , he hasn't agreed yet.

"Wear your bracelet well, there are many thieves on the street."

Wei Qingtong nodded fiercely, thought for a while, stretched out his little hand and said, "Money."

Wei Qingyu patted his palm, "What do you want money for?"

"Xiao Hei has it, Ah Shu has it, and I want it too."

Wei Qingyu took out ten copper coins, "There are only these, do you want it?"

Wei Qingtong carefully put them in the inner pocket of her schoolbag, and patted them contentedly.

Wei Qingzhen pursed her lips and smiled, and went to meet people on Shili Street behind her back. As soon as she went out, she heard lively voices coming from Wei's home. Wei Qingzhen knew that this was the Wei family setting up a stage to sing.

She didn't know if anyone would think of them tonight, but she knew that no one would come into Qiuleng Courtyard tonight.

The key to Qiu Lengyuan is in Wu's hands, no one dares to touch Wu's bad luck at this time.
