Being a Lady of an Influential Family

Chapter 584: Ms. Zhuo Fan Wai: Young and Happy (2)

  Chapter 584 Ms. Zhuo's extravagance: Young and happy (2)

Zhuo Lin and Fu Zheng officially met for the first time in the spring of the following year.

  There is a peach blossom forest on the mountain on the outskirts of the capital. The school rarely organizes students to go out for an outing. Zhuo Lin was also dragged by a few familiar girls.

  Don’t want this to be another romantic confession.

Not long after   , the classmates who were still walking together disappeared. A handsome male student held a bouquet of flowers and stopped in front of Zhuo Lin.

   "Sister Zhuo, I have liked you for a long time, please agree to associate with me."

   "..." Zhuo Lin looked at the male classmate who was kneeling on the ground, her face was speechless. Is this the inspiration for reading a novel that came in from abroad?

  In other words, don’t you think your messy bunch of flowers is very different from this peach blossom forest?

  Zuo Lin coughed slightly, "Um...Student Zhang, please get up first."

   Classmate Zhang was full of joy, "You promised me to come?"

  Zuo Lin shook her head, "No, I just think... it’s better for boys not to kneel down casually. Thank you for your favor, but I don’t mean to fall in love at the moment."

  Student Zhang was a little disappointed, "I'm serious."

Zhuo Lin smiled and said, "Are your parents serious? If I remember correctly, Zhang’s father is the Minister of Justice, right?" Now it is indeed much more open than before, but the so-called rich and powerful are really not open enough. Let your children associate with others or even get married by the way.

  Student Zhang looked slightly stiff, Zhuo Lin turned around and prepared to leave, Student Zhang quickly got up and stopped in front of her, "Zuo Lin, I'm really serious!"

   Zhuo Lin said, "I'm serious too, reject you."

  Student Zhang was a little red, with a slightly annoyed look, "Are you still thinking about Zhang Bi? He has been married a long time ago. Mrs. Zhang Shao is also from a famous Beijing city. You can't be together! Do you want to be a concubine for him?!"

  "..." Who is ruining her reputation? !

  "What does this have to do with Zhang Bi? Didn't he go to the southwest? We haven't seen it for almost a year." Zhuo Lin said. In fact, she didn't know Zhang Bi well, and they hadn't met a few people in total.

  "Then why are you rejecting me?!" This classmate with the same surname Zhang, obviously has the confidence to give me someone other than Zhang Bi.

   Zhuo Lin said, "I refuse naturally because I am boring to you, and...I don't want to fall in love yet. I'm only eighteen years old. I should study hard at this age instead of making love."

   "..." Classmate Zhang stared at Zhuo Lin for a long time before suffocating, "I don't believe it!"

  Do you believe it or not, what does it matter to me?

  Zuo Lin turned around again to go, classmate Zhang stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, "Zuo Lin, I really like you, don't you really think about it? As long as you promise me, I can..."

  Zuo Lin's face darkened, "Student Zhang, I think you can talk to Lingzun Lingtang first!"

  Classmate Zhang froze completely, and let go of the hand holding Zhuo Lin's wrist.

  Zuo Lin took a step back and pulled away from him, "Please respect yourself."

  Student Zhang stared at Zhuo Lin steadily, a bit of cruelty gradually rose in his eyes, and his heart began to fluctuate violently.

  Zuo Lin naturally saw his reaction in her eyes, and she also became vigilant in her heart.

   Just as classmate Zhang rushed towards Zhuo Lin, and Zhuo Lin was about to fight back, there was a soft sound, and the boy who was originally fierce suddenly fell to the ground.

   Zhuo Lin's eyes flickered, she looked around and then raised her head.

  She stood under a hundred-year-old peach tree, and a handsome face appeared in the prosperous peach blossoms above.

  The young man has a face that is as strong as a knife, and even with a smile, it makes people feel a bit of iron and blood and evil spirits. Obviously, this is not the elder brother of those beautiful clothes and jade food in the capital, this is a man who has actually seen blood on the battlefield.

  The other party was wearing a black uniform, leaning on the tree leisurely, a strange beauty among the peach blossoms.

  The charming peach blossoms and the iron-blooded and tough youths also complement each other.

  "Should my life-saving grace be promised?" The young man asked Zhuo Lin with a smile.

   Zhuo Lin said lightly, "I can take care of him without you doing it, isn't it a life-saving grace?"

  The young man said, "But if I heard it right, he is the son of the criminal minister? If I don't do it, you will offend him."

Zhuo Lin said nothing, indeed.

  Although she can solve it, it is still a bit troublesome after all.

   "Thank you then?" Zhuo Lin raised her head and smiled at the person on the tree.

  The young man on the tree stretched out his hand and folded a peach blossom, and jumped down from the tree, "Peach blossoms are for beauty."

  He didn't give Zhuo Lin the opportunity to refuse, and directly stuffed the flower into her hand.

  Zuo Lin stared at the flower in her hand, hovering between throwing and not throwing.

  The young man sighed, “Beautiful women have no intentions these days. I have helped you take care of the big trouble, and you won’t even help me take things.”

  "..." Wasn't it for me? Girl Zhuo Lin, who was amorous for the first time, felt a little embarrassed.

   "Hold it for you?"

  Of course, the youth nodded, "Of course, I'm going to take care of this stuff. You have to help me pick it up. This is very important."

  "Where is it important?" Zhuo Lin observed carefully and found no difference between this peach blossom and other peach blossoms.

  The young man nodded, "This is what I carefully selected to confess. If you break it to me and cause my confession to fail, then you should pay me as a wife."

  Although he deeply doubted the other party’s words, Zhuo Lin still couldn’t think too much about seeing the young man picking up the classmate Zhang on the ground and walking outside, “Where are you taking him?”

   "Don't worry, he won't kill him." The young man waved his hand and walked out carrying the person. Obviously he is also a young man who is not short in height, and being held in his hand is like lifting a chicken without any pressure.

  "Remember to take good care of my flowers." The youth did not forget to turn around and said, "By the way, my name is Fu Zheng."

  So, Zhuo Lin had to stand under the tree with the flower and wait for her.

  This is more than an hour.

  "..." was fooled!

   Zhuo Lin, who was staring at the peach blossom in her hand, gritted her teeth secretly. Miss Zhuo has always been extremely smart, and she was the only one who was fooled by others for the first time!

  Until Zhuo Lin left under the peach tree, Fu Zheng slowly walked out from the depths of the peach forest.

  Seeing that Zhuo Lin didn't throw away the peach blossoms she sent, Fu Zheng hummed a little tune with satisfaction.

  Yao watching next to him couldn't help but shook his head secretly, "Brother, do you know what your name is?"

  Fu Zheng glanced at him, "What?"

  Yao Guandao, "You call yourself dead. Next time you meet someone who doesn't slap you, it will be considered polite." Let a girl stand under a tree and wait for him for more than an hour. Is this a human officer? If you really have something to do, he just hides in the dark and looks at the girl waiting for him there, still triumphant?

  Which woman of this kind of man marries him is simply unlucky.

  "What do you know as a kid?" Fu Zheng disapproved.

  Yao Guan rolled his eyes, "I'm only three years younger than you. Besides, I have a daughter-in-law, do you have one?"

  "..." He really didn't.

  Fu Zheng murmured, "I didn't lie to her either." Sending flowers this time, confession next time, perfect!

  Yao watched him absent-mindedly, but he was a little curious, "Brother Fu, do you really like that girl?"

  Fu Zheng glanced at him, "No way?"

  Yao Guan scratched his hair, "It’s not impossible, that’s...If you listened to my hero to save the beauty last time, maybe you are all done now."

  Fu Zheng also regretted a bit, but he couldn't let the little brother see it, so he forced the respect, "When you meet once, it's fate. We are now called fate."

  "..." Do you think that seeing one more time will not cause you to be surprised?

   didn't know what the guy named Fu Zheng did. After returning to school, the classmate Zhang never came to Zhuo Lin again.

  It’s that Zhuo Lin is a little estranged from her former classmates who were fairly familiar. She doesn't like such self-assertive people, even if their original intention may be "being good for her."

  A few days later, her mentor asked her to call her over.

   "Teacher Ji, what's the matter?" Zhuo Lin walked to the teacher's door and saw a young man sitting in the office besides her teacher. The young man seems to be under thirty, handsome and elegant, with a smile on his face that seems to be somewhat similar to Zhang Bi, but he has a unique temperament that Zhang Bi does not have at all. Expensive and elegant.

  Zuo Lin looked at the young man and raised her eyebrows slightly, and the young man also smiled at her.

Professor Ji was very pleased to see Zhuo Lin, and he immediately waved, "Student Zhuo Lin, come in quickly." He turned his head and said to the young man, "This is the student I just accepted last year, the proud student of Professor Chen from Anlan Women's University. She is proficient in Yi and Sassi, and should be able to help you."

  The young man nodded slightly, his voice was clear and magnetic, "Professor Lao Ji is here. Miss Zhuo, meet again."

  Professor Ji was a little surprised, "Do you know each other?"

  Zuo Lin shook her head and said, "I have seen it twice, in the school library."

  Zuo Lin often spends time in the library, so she met this young man twice in the library and also talked a few words. Zhuo Lin guessed that his identity should be unusual, nor a teacher or student of the school, she didn't want to cause trouble and didn't pay much attention.

  Professor Ji was a little helpless when he heard this, "I don't know, you have been to school."

  The young man laughed and said, "Teacher is so troublesome, it makes you laugh."

Professor Ji waved his hand again and again, and looked at Zhuo Lin, "Ilya and Sassi’s envoys will visit the capital in two days. Together with them will be Ilya’s crown prince and Sassi’s Willa Ou. Duchess of Gus. Ilya. Fortunately, although there are not many women in the capital who are proficient in Ilya, they can find a few, but those who can speak Sassi are hard to find."

  Zuo Lin understood a little bit, "Teacher, do you want me to translate for Duchess Augustus?"

  Professor Ji looked at the young man with a smile, and the young man nodded and said, "I want to trouble Miss Zhuo. I wonder if it is convenient for you?"

  Seeing that Zhuo Lin didn’t answer, Professor Ji smiled and said, “Student Zhuo, no matter how good a language is, it still requires practical application. This is also a rare opportunity for practice.”

   Zhuo Lin smiled, “It’s not that I am hypocritical, but diplomacy is nothing trivial. I have never done an interpreter for anyone. If something goes wrong, isn’t it embarrassing to An Xia?”

The young man laughed and said, "I believe Professor Ji’s students, and... it doesn’t matter if you make a small mistake. Now I can’t find a few women in the capital who can make mistakes. I am a little curious, how Ms. Zhuo thought of it at the beginning. Learn Sassi? Nowadays, more people choose Dayin Ilya even if they want to learn a foreign language, right?"

  Sasi is just a small country extremely far away from Daxia, this language is naturally very unpopular, and even Anxia Jingcheng University’s School of Foreign Languages ​​does not offer this course.

   Zhuo Lin said, "I have a teacher at Anlan University. She is an expatriate who returned from Sassi, and I learned from her."

   "So, Miss Zhuo is exceptionally talented." He has already learned from Professor Ji that this Miss Zhuo has actually only studied at Anlan University for two years. Not only did I get a degree, I also mastered two foreign languages, which is indeed amazing.

   "Mr. Absurd, I haven't consulted this gentleman..."

  The young man smiled, "My surname is Xiao, Xiao Zhu."

   "..." After all, the eighteen-year-old Zhuo Lin was not the Ms. Zhuo who was decades later, but she was also a little speechless for a while.

  The office was quiet for a while before Zhuo Lin found her voice, "It turns out to be your Majesty, please forgive me for being rude."

Qing Young laughed, "It doesn't matter, Miss Zhuo doesn't need to feel restrained. So, is Miss Zhuo willing to accept the next request? Of course, it is not just for asking you for help. The royal family will give Miss Zhuo the treatment of a special translator. If Miss Zhuo is willing , The royal family is also willing to hire Miss Zhuo as a special interpreter for a long time."

   "Thank your majesty for your trust, I will do my best." Zhuo Lin smiled.

  After discussing with Zhuo Lin about receiving foreign guests, Xiao Zhu left soon.

  Waiting for him to leave Zhuo Lin before looking at Professor Ji who was sitting watching a good show, a little helpless, "Professor..."

  Professor Ji smiled and said, “I can’t blame me for this, I can’t fight you under your majesty’s eyelids.”

  Zuo Lin didn’t hold on to this either, she was just a little strange, “Why do your Majesty come to you in person for such a trivial matter?”

The professor said, "Although your majesty wants to reform, the old stubborn ones in the court are not so easy to compromise. As far as the school is concerned, the reform of the co-educational comprehensive university has already begun when the first emperor, and now the whole country is comprehensive. There are less than ten **** schools. Take our school as an example, there are only a few female classmates? Those who are willing to let girls come to our school are either really open-minded scholars, or people who don’t care much about fame .. For those rich and powerful ladies, they would rather invite teachers at home or go to the women’s college. This women’s college is just as good as Anlan University, and the others are already biased. The teaching is all about writing, but It’s not as good as it was hundreds of years ago. So much so that nowadays, even a woman proficient in Sassi cannot be found in the huge capital. Your Majesty will come because I have taught him a few lessons before, so I sent someone to me before. Ask. Isn't this right? I recommended you to your Majesty."

  Zuo Lin listened carefully to Professor Ji's words, and then nodded in agreement.

  An Xia’s female school is really inferior to the former.

  In the previous dynasty, only Anlan Academy had many female officials, and Anlan Academy was not the only female school with achievements at that time. On the contrary, after the establishment of Anxia, ​​the royal family vigorously suppressed the status of women. The status of women was far inferior to that of the Tanglin, which was even more advanced in the previous dynasty. Many women's schools have also become places to simply teach piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

  Only Anlan University has always insisted on teaching women the same knowledge as men. It is precisely because of this that Anlan College was almost directly shut down in the early and mid-term of Anxia when it was severely suppressed and the most difficult. Where are students in schools suppressed by the court? Later, the school compromised and changed to only teach girls to read and calligraphy before they barely survived.

  That is to say, in recent decades, the folk customs have gradually opened up, and the royal family has also begun to seek reforms, and Anlan University has gradually eased its anger.

Professor Ji exhorted, "This opportunity is rare, do it well. I have read the papers you have written these few times, and it doesn’t seem like a person who can stay in school. Maybe in the future we can have a female diplomat in Anxia. ."

Zhuo Lin blinked, "Thank you Professor, I will work hard."
