【2】The Rich Second Generation Is Forced to Start All Over Again

Chapter 212 Classmates

As expected, several academies close to home required at least children to be born in school. The only one with no restrictions was the private elementary school.

The children inside were only five or six years old, and the eldest was only ten years old. It was a bit inappropriate to put fifteen-year-old Lu Zhou in there.

Lu Xu comforted Lu Zhou: "It doesn't matter. Jun Qi said that he will teach you when he comes back from the Yamen. After the children's examination is completed in the fall, we will come to the academy to study."

Lu Zhou was neither discouraged nor sad. He nodded sensibly, "I can study at home by myself."

Lu Xu was unwilling.

Every time he saw Lu Zhou studying hard at home, he felt that studying was a very hard task, and he always felt that it was not happy enough.

Lu Xu: "You don't have to read any scriptures or books. There are so many books in Beijing. You can pick up some travel notes and read them. You can also learn calligraphy and painting. Or go out to climb mountains with your children. Find a You can enjoy the scenery and read a book in the small pavilion.”

There are many tourists in the mountains on the outskirts of Beijing. There are also villas built by dignitaries on the mountains. There are no wild animals and it is very safe. It is a good place to relax.

It's the end of May now, and the weather is neither hot nor cold, so it's a good time to go out and play.

"The exam is still far away anyway, let's go have some fun!" Lu Xu encouraged him, "Do you still have money?"

Lu Zhou nodded.

Lu Xu gave him another bag of change and asked him to go and play with Jiang Zhuo.

He looked at the child and saw that he was very lively and playful. He was about the same age as Lu Zhou, and the two of them could talk quite well.

Lu Zhou packed his money bag and walked toward the back door of He's house alone.

Jiang Zhuo had already told him where he lived. He took him on this road last time, and Lu Zhou recognized it.

You can get there by walking three and a half streets from his house.

Passing by a snack shop, Lu Zhou went in and bought two red bean cakes and two sweet-scented osmanthus cakes. Jiang Zhuoting loved snacks.

Lu Zhou knew that Jiang Zhuo's servant never bought him snacks. Every time Jiang Zhuo wanted to try something, the servant would frown.

He thought for a while that Jiang Zhuo was a child who came from out of town to live with his relatives and study with his uncle. Now he was living under someone else's roof and he didn't bring much money. He only had good clothes to support the occasion, and the servants were careful not to buy him food.

Lu Zhou has taken care of his younger brothers and sisters since he was a child, and he is frugal but not stingy. Although he spent all his own pocket money to buy a house for his brother, he assumed that what his brother gave him was his own meal money, and he still bought cakes for Jiang Zhuo.

When he arrived at the back door of He Mansion, he knocked on the door. The doorman recognized him and asked him to wait before running to find Jiang Zhuo.

Jiang Zhuo lived in He Chengye's private courtyard, which was connected to the Imperial Master's Mansion through the inner gate, but was far away from it.

He didn't go to the He family's home to learn reading. Those children knew him. He used to be too reserved and he didn't like it.

Usually when He Chengye went to court, he would do his homework in the courtyard. After He Chengye officially started teaching him, he only worked in the imperial city in the morning and came back to teach him his homework in the afternoon.
