CHAPTER 175: CHAPTER 175: ALL ARRANGED

Jiang Youzhi contemplated for a moment and seriously said, "After the New Year, I plan to go to the Prefecture City to study."

Mrs. Chen was delighted, "To the Prefecture City? That’s great, the teachers there must be better than here."

Jiang Youzhi sat down beside Mrs. Chen and slowly said, "But if I go, I won’t be at ease about the family. I want Mother to go with me."

Mrs. Chen was surprised and said, "Me go with you? Then wouldn’t we also have to take Liulang and Sanya?"

Jiang Youzhi nodded, "That’s exactly what I mean. Our whole family will go to the Prefecture City. I’ll go to the academy to study, Yun Jiao will see patients, and Liulang and Xiao Chuan will attend school."

Mrs. Chen clicked her tongue, "How much silver will that cost per month?"

"We are currently using Yun Jiao’s silver, this—"

Jiang Youzhi paused for a moment, "For now, there’s no other way. The debt to Yun Jiao, I can only repay slowly."

Mrs. Chen hesitated, "Do we really have to go?"

Jiang Youzhi nodded, "Anyway, we don’t have land at home, so where we live doesn’t really matter."

Mrs. Chen waved her hand, "You don’t understand."

"Moving to the Prefecture City means we’ll have to rent a house, which is an additional expense."

"I’ve heard that everything is expensive in the Prefecture City. I’m afraid it would cost one or two ounces of silver a month!"

"Even if I embroider every day, I can’t earn that much in a month."

"Mother would rather not go and stay at home with Liulang and Sanya."

Jiang Youzhi’s eyes flickered slightly, "Then forget it, if Mother doesn’t go, I won’t go either."

Mrs. Chen became anxious, "How can you not go? Studying in the Prefecture City is so much better. The teachers there are extraordinary, and also, making friends with a few classmates will be beneficial to you in the future."

She thought for a moment and gritted her teeth, "Fine, we’ll go. I’ll take the risk as long as you can succeed, and the silver we spend will be earned back in the future."

Jiang Youzhi smiled, "That’s the right way to think, Mother."

"Don’t worry, Mother. I will work hard to earn silver in the future."

He thought for a moment, "Then we will depart for the Prefecture City on the third day after the New Year."

Mrs. Chen was surprised and said, "So soon! There won’t be enough time to pack everything."

Keep in mind it’s already past the Minor New Year.

Jiang Youzhi said meaningfully, "This home is not peaceful, the sooner we leave, the better."

In the following days, Mrs. Chen was sometimes gloomy, sometimes excited. Gu Yunjiao noticed and found an opportunity to ask Jiang Youzhi, "Have you talked to Mother?"

Jiang Youzhi nodded, "Yes, I have. Quickly pack what needs to be packed, we’ll leave on the third day."

"I’ve arranged the travel documents."

"I’ve also rented three carts."

Gu Yunjiao was delighted, Sanlang was really capable, "Great, then let’s leave on the third day!"

Soon it was New Year’s Eve, and early in the morning, Mr. Jiang personally came to the east wing with a very cordial attitude and said to Jiang Youzhi, "Even though we’re divided, we are still family."

"Today is the thirtieth, we must have the reunion dinner together."

Jiang Youzhi nodded with a smile, "Of course, of course, Grandfather is right, I will definitely come over later."

Mrs. Chen didn’t want to go, but the old man personally invited them, so it wouldn’t be appropriate not to go. She had no choice but to agree.

Gu Yunjiao was in the side room and did not come out. The old man specifically said, "Where’s Yun Jiao? Remember to tell her to come."

Gu Yunjiao stayed inside as if she hadn’t heard.

After the old man left, Sanya whispered, "I don’t want to go to their house for dinner. Wulang is too good at snatching dishes, and I can’t win against them."

Gu Yunjiao chuckled, "It’s okay, you just go and make an appearance. Leave after a while and we’ll eat by ourselves."
