Old Madam Wang looked at Old Master Wang with hatred in her eyes. “Later on, when we had our third child, your mother snatched him away. In the end, Third Brother took Eldest Brother’s path again. Why didn’t you chide your old lady? Hehe!” Old Madam Wang sneered. “At that time, you were bewitched by that bitch. You were just short of doting on your concubine and killing your wife. Now, you’re blaming the child for not teaching him well. What were you doing long ago?

...

“You, you…” Old Master Wang looked at the old lady angrily and clutched his chest as he fell.

“Master, what’s wrong?” Old Madam Wang panicked when she saw him collapse. She stumbled in front of him and shouted, “Someone come quickly! Master, what’s wrong?”

Wang Zheng ran in and picked up Old Master Wang. Fortunately, there was a physician in Wang Chun’s courtyard. After the physician injected Old Master Wang, the latter woke up and became paralyzed. The physician shook his head and said, “Old Master was so angry that he had a stroke. He can only slowly recuperate.” When Old Madam Wang heard this, she collapsed.

Wang Qinghai looked at the old man lying on the bed, the old lady who had fallen to the side, and Wang Zheng, who was standing at the side with a

gloomy expression. He thought to himself that the main branch has completely collapsed and felt relieved.

News had spread that Wang Chun had caused Old Master Wang to faint from anger. Two days later, Wang Chun also died.

Mr. Wen returned to the backyard of the government office and told Zhou Jia and his wife what he had seen in the Wang family. He said in shame and self-reproach, “Although Wang Chun really deserves to die, as a physician, Sir used his medical skills to harm people. Also, that medicine is indeed domineering. I want to try concocting an antidote to save those who shouldn’t be harmed.”

Seeing Mr. Wen blaming himself, Zhou Jia and Li Yu felt extremely guilty. They bowed to Mr. Wen and said, “Sir, we were unfilial and made you feel guilty and sad.”

Mr. Wen helped the two of them up. “You’re both good children. In the past, I was worried that Xiao Xi would be cold and not be benevolent or pity the poor.

Now, it seems that I’m relieved.” Mr. Wen patted Zhou Jia in relief and smiled. “Hehe! It’s all thanks to Xiaoyu.”

Zhou Jia hugged Mr. Wen. “Sir, that could not have happened without your teachings.”

Mr. Wen pushed Zhou Jia happily and smiled. “You’re already so old. Why are you still wheedling like Yangyang?

Zhou Jia smiled shyly. Li Yu said to Mr. Wen, “Didn’t you say that you wanted to eat sachima? Knowing that you’re back, I’ve already asked Granny Liu to prepare it. I’ll go make it now. See if there’s anything else you want to eat.”

Mr. Wen thought of the mushrooms given by the villagers and smiled. “There are a few monkey head mushrooms in the backpack Ah Wei is carrying. Take them and stew them.”

Li Yu smiled and said, “Oh! Those are good stuff. I haven’t gone up the mountain to hunt in a long time. I’ll go to Mount Spindle to take a look when I have time. ”

Zhou Jia smiled. “Alright, we’re in for a treat.”

At the end of the month, Zhou Jia, Ruyi, and Ji Xiang sent Zhao Cai out of the city. Before they left, Zhou Jia said to him, “I’ve already asked the bank to help bring it to Brother Lin. Send Ah Qing to the capital and propose marriage to your mother-in-law. Madam has silver notes in your bag. See if you can buy the betrothal gift and get Ah Qing to help you settle the marriage.”

“Master, I understand.” Zhao Cai nodded with red eyes. Ji Xiang smiled and teased, “Brother Zhao Cai, you invite us to the wedding!”

Ruyi smiled and said, “Ji Xiang, ask Madam to help you settle Gu Yu as soon as possible. At that time, you can also attend your own wedding.”

The two of them punched Ruyi. “Okay, drink more when the time comes.” They laughed happily, diluting the reluctance to part.

After sending Zhao Cai and the others back to the city, Li Yu asked Ruyi, “How are the children and old people in the manor? Are they used to it?”

Ruyi smiled and said, “Madam, everyone is fine. It’s just that a few children who have been beggars might be used to being sloppy and don’t like to be clean. Some even have lice on their heads and bodies. After Old Master concocted medicine for them to wash up, they’re much better. Some of the older ones don’t like to be clean. They were punished to wash their clothes and latrines a few times. They’re much better now.”

“That’s true. They haven’t settled down for a long time and no one cared about them. They’ve developed a bad habit and will need to slowly recover.” Li Yu smiled at Zhou Jia and said, “Senior Zhou, please help me.”

Zhou Jia smiled and said, “Madam, please instruct me. I’ll definitely do as you say.”

“I want to find two teachers. They don’t need to have much knowledge. It’s fine as long as they can write and calculate.”

When Zhou Jia and Ruyi looked at Li Yu in confusion, Li Yu smiled and said, “I heard from Ji Xiang that there are no schools in the two villages at the foot of the mountain. I want to take out the courtyard in the manor and set up a school so that the children in the manor and the children in the village can recognize a few words and learn arithmetic. What do you think?”

When Zhou Jia heard this, he looked at Li Yu happily and nodded. “Madam, this idea is good. It’s also good that they can learn to read contracts and calculate when buying and selling things. Don’t worry, I’ll go to the front office to ask someone later.”

Li Yu also teased, “Thank you, Lord Zhou.”

Ruyi looked at the two of them and said, “Master, Madam, Ji Xiang and I chose a few children with good bone structures to teach them martial arts so that they can follow Young Master in the future. Also,” Ruyi thought for a moment and said, “I want to bring Young Master and Seven Pounds to the farm for a few days. What do you think?”

Li Yu and Zhou Jia thought for a moment and understood what Ruyi meant. They would teach the children to protect Yangyang. They brought the children to the manor to stay because they were afraid that the children would be cooped up in the backyard. They would only interact with Gu Yu, Xing Hua, and a few old women. If this continued, it would be detrimental to the children’s growth. Li Yu thought that Ruyi was right to be worried. Even Mr. Wen didn’t like to stay in the back office. He felt like he was locked in a cage. He came back and rested at home for two days before moving to the manor.

Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia and nodded. She smiled at Ruyi and said, “You’re right. Send the two children to the manor to stay for a few days. Later, your master will talk to Mr. Lu and invite him to move to the manor to teach the children. I’ll go pack some clothes. Also, Xiaoyu has been suffering from morning sickness these days. Bring her to the manor and ask Sir to get some medicine for her. ”

Ruyi agreed. “Got it.” Li Yu then said to Ruyi, “Ruyi, go back and get Carpenter

Qian to make some desks. Find a bright room to use for class.”

Ruyi replied, “Alright, I’ll do it when I get back. Madam, there’s an auntie in the manor who used to be an embroiderer. Her eyesight is a little bad. I want to ask her to teach those girls needlework. What do you think?”

“Alright, go buy some cloth and needlework and cotton. Let them learn to make winter clothes.”

“Yes.” Ruyi left to let Xiaoyu pack her luggage.

Zhou Jia returned to the front office and thought about the matter of finding a teacher. He suddenly thought of Liu Yi and felt that Liu Yi was upright and reliable. It should be good for him to find two upright people to teach those children.

After thinking about it, Zhou Jia got someone to call Liu Yi over from the guard room. Liu Yi heard from the person who called him that Lord Zhou was looking for him. He thought to himself that he had not done anything wrong! Did one of the people he sent get into trouble at the manor? Liu Yi went to Zhou Jia’s room uneasily. Seeing Zhou Jia’s pleasant expression, he was relieved..
