Chapter 138 The Free Private School

My little lady confronted the Li family's lord, the Jiang family's guards became tense, and they all pressed forward at the same time, and Li Zhongwen's easy-going guards pressed forward, not to be outdone.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

The diner who noticed something was wrong turned his head and saw the situation in front of him, so anxious that his forehead was sweating. Seeing the clothes and demeanor of the two of them, as well as the guards behind them, they were not ordinary people, and their restaurant could not afford to provoke them.

"Mr. Zhonglang, it is difficult for a strong man, not for a gentleman." Jiang Yuanxi patted Xiaohu's hand to comfort the restless child.

Li Zhongwen smiled lowly, with obvious shamelessness, "I told you at the Yaji banquet before that I am not a gentleman."

Jiang Yuanxi looked at him indifferently, "So you don't even want the bearing of a noble son?"

Li Zhongwen's eyes flickered when he heard the words, he touched his chin, and also responded to her, "So you even turn a blind eye to the invitation of the savior?"

Li Zhongwen's words reminded Jiang Yuanxi of what happened on the night of the Chongjiu sacrifice.

"Isn't it good to repay favors?" Jiang Yuanxi narrowed his eyes slightly.

The corner of Li Zhongwen's mouth grinned, full of viciousness, "Is this counted as repayment? Then your life is really worthless."

Jiang Yuanxi looked at Li Zhongwen's eyes this time, and took it seriously. This is the first person who can choke her verbally.

"Since it's a lifesaver who invited me, naturally I can't shirk it."

Jiang Yuanxi made a concession, and took Xiaohu directly from Li Zhongwen's side into the box behind him.

Li Zhongwen smelled a scent of fragrance drifting by, and smiled. He knew that his actions would offend Jiang Wuniang, but he just couldn't help the urge to tease her. Perhaps it was because the two of them walked out of the fire together on the night of the sacrificial ceremony. Run for your life in the sea, Li Zhongwen, who has been irritable recently, urgently needs to find someone to talk to.

Li Zhongwen turned around, followed into the box, and sat down in his own seat.

He picked up a wine glass and poured a glass of wine for Jiang Yuanxi, "Fragrant and mellow, try it?"

A Fang frowned, Wu Niang can't drink outside, and before she could refuse, Shao Sihu picked up the wine glass and pushed it towards Li Zhongwen.

Li Zhongwen glanced at the wine glass that was pushed back in front of him, and saw that Jiang Yuanxi didn't make a sound to stop him, and put a plate of pastries in front of him to Jiang Yuanxi without changing his face, "The radish cake made by this restaurant is good, try it."

Then he stretched out another hand and pushed the plate of radish cake towards Li Zhongwen, even farther than where the plate was before.

Not only that, Shao Sihu stretched out his finger, scratched on the desk, and said word by word: "Over there, yours, over here, ours."

Li Zhongwen chuckled, "Fifth Lady, when did you manage to let others dictate everything for you?"

Jiang Yuanxi said "oh", "right now."

Li Zhongwen choked, and just when Jiang Yuanxi thought he would turn into anger from embarrassment, he suddenly laughed out loud, as if the boredom and irritability in his heart were also emptied by his smile. When he stopped, there was a manic look in his eyes , has disappeared.

At this time, Li Zhongwen was the five handsome men of the capital in the past.

He turned his head and told the diner who had been waiting here all this time, "Xiaoer, order for this little lady."

After a pause, he added, "On her account."

The hall guest and the guards of A Fang and Jiang Li all looked at Li Zhongwen in surprise. He invited the young lady to come in, but in the end he asked the young lady to settle the bill by herself. This is really...really.
Rao is the Li family's own guard, and he sighed in his heart, if Mr. Da Lang is interested in this little lady, it may be impossible.

Jiang Yuanxi was not as surprised as the others, anyway, Xiaohu obviously refused to eat Li Zhongwen's order now, so it doesn't matter if she pays the bill herself.

She asked the guests what signature dishes they had, ordered what she and Shao Sihu liked, and ordered Afang and the other guards to keep half of them guarding here, and the rest went to the first floor to eat first, and exchanged food when they ran out. Man, you can order whatever you want.

Afang insisted on serving Wuniang here, and the ten guards finally discussed and obeyed the order to go down to eat in batches.

When the guest went to the back kitchen to serve dishes and served Jiang Yuanxi a pot of tea, she stopped the guest and asked, "Is there anything lively in the capital recently?"

"You want to listen to something exciting? I know." Li Zhongwen stopped talking and waved his hand at the guest, "You go down first, it's none of your business here."

The guest looked at Jiang Yuanxi's expression, and only retreated after getting her nod.

"If you want to say that there are many lively things in the capital recently, the most lively thing is the 'compulsory education' run by Gu Sanniang, a wealthy girl from the Gu family."

Li Zhongwen poured himself a drink and said leisurely.

Jiang Yuanxi picked up his teacup and saw that Xiaohu was still looking at Li Zhongwen, not as aggressive as before, so he asked in confusion, "What is 'compulsory education'?"

"According to the explanation given by that wealthy lady, it's a free private school."

Li Zhongwen's words made Jiang Yuanxi stunned, "A free private school?"

Doesn't Gu Sanniang make a lot of money for every idea?Why come up with a free private school now?No wonder my brother doesn't care.

"The private school is free? What kind of regulations are there?"

What Gu Yidan made completely aroused Jiang Yuanxi's interest.

"It is said that children over the age of six and under the age of ten, regardless of gender, can go to the 'Yucai Bookstore' organized by Gu's family to study. They don't need to study, and they don't need to buy books, pens, ink, paper and inkstones. They are available in the library, and students only need to bring their own lunch.”

Li Zhongwen's words made Jiang Yuanxi feel as if he heard a novel continent, "Can all the children in the capital go? Regardless of their status?"

"Regardless of status, everyone can go." Li Zhongwen said affirmatively.

"If this is the case, the Gu family thinks money is burning their hands, so they want to spread the money?"

Jiang Yuanxi couldn't figure it out. The capital city caters for children over six years old and under ten years old. At least thousands of them. If it is true that they can enter school without the need for training, and the college can provide pens, inks, papers and inkstones, the Gu family will not say It's going bankrupt, but it's also going to hurt your bones.

"The compulsory education offered by the Gu family is conditional."

Li Zhongwen's words made Jiang Yuanxi feel relieved, "If there are no conditions, then the Gu family's intentions are terrible."

With such a great favor, what does the Gu family want to do?
Conditions make sense.

"Those who study in the Gu family's Yucai Academy, if they cannot be recommended to be officials in the future, they will work as assistants for five to ten years in the shop under the name of the Gu family."
