Chapter 120： go to academy

Stepping into the threshold of the living room, breakfast was already on the table. Su Hu and Li Xiu'e were waiting for her at the table. They both looked at the beautiful little girl who looked like a little fairy in New Year pictures, and both of them felt the pride of being a young girl.

"Sister Yu, I'm going to the academy for the first time today. Let your father accompany you. First, report to the steward. After the steward assigns the classes, the master will naturally come to lead you."

Su Hu and his wife raised two children, and they are very familiar with the process of going to school in the academy. Li Xiu'e was worried about her youngest daughter, so she specially told her.

"Well, Qingluo understands."

Su Qingluo responded obediently, sat down at the dining table, picked up the porridge bowl and started eating.

She didn't eat much, drank a bowl of porridge, ate two buns, and an egg, and then put down her chopsticks.

"Sister Yu, don't you want to eat more?"

Before Su Hu finished eating, seeing his little daughter put down her chopsticks, she hurriedly stuffed half of the bun into her mouth.

"I'm full, don't eat."

Su Qingluo flashed her big smart eyes, looked at Su Hu with a smile, and said with a very caring smile: "Father, eat slowly, don't be in a hurry."

"Father is full too, today is the first day to report, don't be late, let's go."

Su Hu picked up the porridge bowl, drank it in one gulp, put down the bowl, wiped his mouth, and stood up from the chair.

"It's cold outside, put on more clothes."

Li Xiu'e also got up, picked up a thick cotton waistcoat from the back of the chair, handed it to Su Hu, and then handed the cloak to the youngest daughter, earnestly instructing her.

"Sister Yu, put on your hat and wrap your cloak."

"Good mother, don't worry, I will take care of myself."

Su Qingluo smiled obediently, took the cloak, put it on her body, pulled the hat from behind, put it on her head, and fastened the cloak belt on the front.

After tidying up, Su Hu also put on the cotton waistcoat, and the father and daughter walked out of the living room one after the other.

"Father, let's go to the ferry on horseback. Heifeng and Hongzao know the way and can come back by themselves."

Su Qingluo was good at riding. She had been riding a horse since she was a child, and she wanted to ride a horse to school. When she passed the stables, she couldn't help but stop.

Su Hu had scruples in his heart, and subconsciously glanced at the main room: "It's not yet June 9th, it's too cold, and there's a cold wind blowing while riding a horse. What should I do if I'm sick? Your mother will definitely disagree."

"Mother is back in the house, I can't see you."

Out of the corner of Su Qing's eyes, Su Qing caught sight of Li Xiu'e entering the main room through the curtain, smiling so hard that she couldn't see her teeth.

"You, clever ghost."

Su Hu couldn't help laughing, nodding in agreement because of his loving father who dotes on his daughter.

The father and daughter tiptoely took Heifeng and Red Dates from the stable, went out of the yard and got on their horses.

The two horses were well-bred and spiritual. They didn't wait for the owner to shout, and ran forward along the path out of the village to the ferry.

***********

When they arrived at the ferry, Heifeng and Hongzao went home by themselves. The father and daughter crossed the river by boat. At dawn, I came to the thatched cottage academy.

The students enrolled in the new spring semester are all children of local wealthy families. Most of them come to school with their maids and servants, and they are picked up by car.

Early in the morning, the alley in front of the thatched cottage academy was full of carriages, and the end could not be seen at a glance. The carriages of each family are competing for beauty, and the decorations are extraordinarily luxurious.

Surrounded by maidservants, mothers-in-law, and servants, a son from a rich family entered the academy yawning. When he passed by the father and daughter standing at the door, he raised his eyelids, and most of them showed contemptuous glances.

Su Hu's father and daughter were plainly dressed, and they didn't have a carriage to pick them up, and they didn't have any servant girls to accompany them. At first glance, they looked a bit shabby indeed.

"Sister Yu, most of the students in the academy are children from poor families, except this year."

Su Hu was sensitive to the contempt of some people, and he was afraid that his little daughter would be wronged, so he went out of his way to comfort her.

"I know dad, it's okay, I don't care about them."

Su Qingluo smiled understandingly, not paying attention to a bunch of little kids at all.

Although she is now a girl who is only eight years old.
