n about the Directorate and realized that the Directorate of the Great Zhou Dynasty actually had scholarships too.
Every month, the Chancellor would give them five to ten taels of silver for the top three positions.
This might not be much in the Capital, but in the countryside, it was an entire years worth of money for the family.

Zhao Heng received it? Yu Wan asked.

Uncle Wan nodded.
Hes in the top three every month.

That was ten taels.
The heavens really treated him well.
He could earn ten taels of silver in a month.

Yu Song could be considered a person with connections.
He had spent a huge sum of money to obtain a spot.
There was no need to tell Yu Song about this.
Yu Song could just study in peace.
Yu Wan did not want him to feel burdened.


Yan Jiuchao had said that Yu Song would not stay at home for long.
Yu Wan did not expect that it would only be for a day.
After completing the admission procedures, Yu Song could not wait to see his classmates.
Yu Wan recalled that in her previous life, she was impatient to start her life in the dormitory.
She smiled understandingly and got someone to prepare a carriage to personally send Yu Song to the Directorate.

Yu Wan packed Yu Songs luggage and said, Ive put the clothes in this bag.
The silver is also inside.
The brush, ink, and paper are all in the box.
By the way, Ive prepared a few handkerchiefs.
Remember to use them.

Alright, alright, I understand.
Why are you like my mother? Yu Song was speechless.

Yu Wan could not help but smile.
Thats right, she used to be the least talkative, but ever since she became a mother and a wife, she had become naggy.

The siblings chatted for a while at the entrance of the Directorate.
Just as Yu Song was about to enter, Zhao Heng appeared.

Zhao Heng was with a few classmates.
They went to buy stationery and had just returned from the streets.
Zhao Heng saw the luxurious four-horse carriage at a glance.
In the Capital, anyone who could ride such a carriage was either a royal or a prince.
No matter how virtuous he was, he could not help but take a few more glances.
In the end, he noticed Yu Wan walking down from the carriage.

Yu Wan was wearing a red and white wide-sleeved fairy dress.
The red was really red, making her look indescribably beautiful.
The white collar, sleeves, and skirt made her look clean and elegant.
Her temperament was calm and tranquil, and her smile was light and gentle.
Her face was still the same, but Zhao Heng did not dare to recognize her.

Was this still the village girl who was squatting by the dirty fish pond and washing her face with smelly water? Everyone would believe that she was the daughter of a Zanying family.
Of course, she had a married womans hairstyle and it was obvious that she was already married.

There was a womans charm between her eyebrows, making them even more impossible to look away.

What are you looking at? A classmate followed Zhao Hengs gaze and recognized the cloud pattern emblem on the carriage.
Ah, the carriage of the Yan Manor.
That must be Young Master Yans new wife.

A woman with such outstanding looks and temperament could not be a servant of the Young Master Manor.
That would be too unreasonable.
Of course, Zhao Heng already knew that Young Master Wan was Yan Jiuchao.
However, knowing was one thing, seeing her marry Yan Jiuchao with his own eyes was another.

He had once thought that Ah Wan was beautiful, but she was rustic and could not compare to the young ladies in town.
Now that he looked at her, he felt that not to mention the young ladies in town, even the young ladies in Marshal Xiaos residence could not compare to her.


Zhao Heng frowned and clenched his fists under his wide sleeves.

Why is the madam of the Young Master Manor here?

I heard she sent her brother to school.

The two students discussed.

Lets go, stop looking.
His classmate urged Zhao Heng.
Yan Jiuchao was not to be trifled with.
If he knew that they were staring at his wife, he might do something to them.

In fact, it was not only Zhao Heng who was looking.
The students passing by could not help but be attracted by Yu Wan.
It was true that she was beautiful, but the most eye-catching thing was the quiet and distant temperament she slowly emitted.

Get in the carriage quickly.
Uncle Wan and I will go in! Yu Song also noticed the others sizing her up.
He did not want his sister to be surrounded by so many men.

Yu Song did not see Zhao Heng, but Zhao Heng saw him.

Nonsense, Zhao Heng muttered coldly as he entered the Directorate.

Whats wrong? asked his classmate.

Zhao Heng stopped in his tracks.
Hes not cut out for school.

A farmer who only knew how to pick birds nests and behave atrociously in the village all day long would only cause trouble to the Directorate.

Zhao Heng, who had been stunned by Yu Wans temperament just now, suddenly felt that Yu Wan was only so-so.
She wanted to copy those city people after climbing up the social ladder.
She should take a look at her brothers character.
He was simply a useless person!
