Chapter 721 You don’t seem to like Miss Zhong very much
There are only about three days left before the generals who have made outstanding contributions at the border can enter the city.
During this period, Jiang Suining and her colleagues made all the preparations, and in their free time, they would go to the Women's College to deal with some issues that needed to be resolved.
The impeachment in the court also subsided. Although Zhong Xingyun did not continue to submit memorials, Jiang Suining and others knew very well that the matter had not been completely resolved.
In the girls' academy, as soon as Jiang Suining and Lu Yan entered, the manager reported to them that someone had applied for the position of female teacher.
"The news has been spread a long time ago, why are people coming here now?" Lu Yan was a little surprised.
Jiang Suining asked, "Have you ever asked for my name?"
"I asked, and the girl said her last name is Zhong, and her name is Zhong Yiyu." The manager replied.
Jiang Suining and Lu Yan looked at each other and knew each other's identity, Zhong Xingyun's second daughter.
Jiang Suining and the others followed the steward to the place where Zhong Yiyu was waiting.
Zhong Yiyu was wearing a green dress and did not sit down, but just stood in the hall.
When she saw Jiang Suining and Lu Yan, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes. She walked up to them and said, "Lady Jiang, Lady Lu."
Jiang Suining and Lu Yan nodded in return.
"I heard that Miss Zhong came here today to apply for the position of female teaching teacher?"
"That's right." Zhong Yiyu nodded. "I know that the news of your recruitment has been announced for a long time. My sister and I had planned to come here a long time ago, but...some things got in the way, so we were delayed. But Miss Jiang, I am really sincere about applying for the position of female teaching teacher. I have been studying since I was a child. Although I am not a scholar with great talent, I fully meet the conditions you announced. I hope you can give me a chance."
Zhong Yiyu's eyes were sparkling, and she looked truly sincere.
Jiang Suining and Lu Yan did not give an immediate reply, but remained silent for a moment.
"If you don't believe it, you can make up any questions you want to test us." Zhong Yiyu spoke quickly again.
Jiang Suining explained: "Miss Zhong, please don't misunderstand. We don't doubt your talent. You were born in the residence of the Minister of Rites and have been taught by famous teachers since childhood. You must have no problem with your talent when you come to teach at the Women's Academy."
"If that's the case, then why are you still hesitating?"
"Miss Zhong." Lu Yan looked at Zhong Yiyu, "Do you know about your father's impeachment of the Women's Academy?"
Zhong Yiyu's face froze, and she lowered her eyes in embarrassment. "I know, but this is just my father's idea. My sister and I both think that the existence of the Women's Academy is very meaningful, and we also want to do our part for it."
"We are honored that Miss Zhong thinks so, but we want to confirm whether your father has agreed to your coming to the Women's Academy?"
Jiang Suining looked at Zhong Yiyu, and after he asked this question, Zhong Yiyu lowered her eyes even more, and she immediately understood the answer.
"Miss Zhong, your father is the Minister of Rites, and his impeachment cannot be ignored in the court. We are willing and hope that you can come to the academy to teach, but before that, I wonder if you can settle the matter at home?"
"That's right, Miss Zhong. If you can't convince your father, and our girls' academy rashly accepts you, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay in the academy for long. And it might make your father even more angry with the girls' academy." Lu Yan said with a worried tone.
Zhong Yiyu bit her lip, looking helpless. After a long silence, she sighed and spoke.
"Madam Jiang, Madam Lu, I don't want to hide it from you. My father has always disapproved of my sister and I coming to the Women's Academy. Even today, I sneaked out without telling him. If my father finds out, I'm afraid I'll be confined again."
"Then have you ever thought about how you will teach in this situation?" Lu Yan frowned.
The affairs of this girls' academy are not something that can be accomplished by simply finding an opportunity to sneak in and put your name on the list.
Once you really become a teaching lady, even if you don't come to teach every day, you will at least come every other day.
Even if it happens every few days or even a few times a month, without the permission of the family, it is difficult to guarantee that he will arrive on time in the future.
Zhong Yiyu bit her lips even harder when asked by Lu Yan.
"I haven't dealt with this matter yet, but I'm thinking that if I can apply for the position of a female teacher in a women's college first, and then talk to my father, by then everything will have been settled, and it's a done deal. Maybe..."
Zhong Yiyu did not continue speaking but glanced at Jiang Suining cautiously.
Jiang Suining understood her words and said, "You think your father might agree to this for my sake, no, I should say for Prime Minister Shen's sake."
"Yes." Zhong Yiyu nodded, and quickly added, "Madam Jiang, I know it's not very kind to do this, but I really have no other choice. After thinking about it, I can only place my hopes on you and Prime Minister Shen."
"Miss Zhong, what you are doing is really..."
Lu Yan frowned, obviously unhappy, but Jiang Suining stopped her before she could finish her words.
After Jiang Suining shook his head at Lu Yan, he looked at Zhong Yiyu again.
"Miss Zhong, we are very grateful that you support the Women's Academy and are willing to contribute to it. However, since your father is so opposed to it, and has confined you to his house, and impeached you at the morning court, even if Prime Minister Shen comes forward, I am afraid he may not be able to convince him."
Zhong Yiyu lowered her head again. Although she had thought of this possibility before she came here, she couldn't help feeling disappointed when she heard these words.
Jiang Suining continued: "But..."
Zhong Yiyu was stunned and immediately asked, "But what?"
Jiang Suining looked at her with a smile, "However, if Miss Zhong is really determined, we can think about it together. Although we may not be able to guarantee the result as we wish, by brainstorming together, we may be able to find a solution."
"Lady Jiang, I really want to enter the women's academy. I don't want to be trapped in the back house forever. After two years, I will get engaged, get married, and move from one house to another. I also want to do something meaningful. I didn't have the opportunity before, but now I see the possibility, and I really don't want to give up!" Zhong Yiyu stared at Jiang Suining, her expression full of determination.
Jiang Suining also looked at her and said, "Okay, if that's the case, then let's think of a solution together. But before we think of a solution, whether for the sake of your relationship as father and daughter or for the sake of the Women's Academy, Miss Zhong, please don't annoy your father."
Half an incense stick later, Zhong Yiyu left the girls' academy.
Lu Yan looked at Jiang Suining and asked, "Suining, are you really going to help Zhong Yiyu?"
Jiang Suining did not answer immediately. He looked at Lu Yan and asked, "I feel like you don't like Miss Zhong very much?"
