The Wealthy Eldest Sister Rules Supreme-Chapter 575 - 562: No Need to Take the Exam
Chapter 575: Chapter 562: No Need to Take the Exam
Upon hearing this, everyone in the crowd couldn’t help but praise Master Xue’s fairness in rewards and punishments and his wholehearted consideration for the students.
Many others commended the high character of Zhuang Qingsui for not being greedy for money.
Of course, some also commented about Zhuang Qinglan.
However, their words were not quite as flattering.
Comments such as arrogant, shooting oneself in the foot, and oppressing others…
These words were like daggers, pricking Zhuang Qinglan’s face, making it sore. Unable to bear the humiliation and angered by the unremarkable Zhuang Qingsui, she abruptly stood up and stormed away.
With the troublemaker gone, the place returned to its usual tranquility that was not fit for commotion. People stopped fussing about it and continued with their tasks.
Those who were scheduled to take the exam did so. Those who passed the preliminary examination picked up their number plates to line up for final examination in the academy. Those who didn’t sighed and left.
Zhuang Qingsui who passed the preliminary exam, should have gotten her number plate by now. However, Master Xue took the plate that Mr. Feng had given her.
“Master Xue?” Mr. Feng hesitated for a moment.
“In my opinion, this young lady doesn’t need to take the exam anymore,” said Master Xue. “Let’s admit her directly, what do you say?”
Before Mr. Feng could respond, Mister Ye agreed, “That works.”
Mr. Feng followed suit a little late and nodded, “I agree.”
Although Zhuang Qingsui was young, she was more mature than most adults. Intellect is one thing when it comes to studying, but how one thinks about many things is crucial. Otherwise, it’s easy to go astray or study inefficiently. Indeed, Zhuang Qingsui, who was smart and reasonable, was an excellent prospect.
“In that case, let’s make the decision. Zhuang Qingsui does not need to take the exam or wait for the results. She just needs to come to the academy on the sixteenth of March,” Master Xue slightly bowed towards Zhuang Qingsui. “Use this time to prepare.”
“I thank Master Xue,” Zhuang Qingsui bowed respectfully to Master Xue, “I will take my leave now.”
“Go ahead.” Master Xue nodded slightly, and only after Zhuang Qingsui left did he go to Mr. Feng to take the torn paper.
“Should I find someone to fix it?” Mr. Feng asked.
“No need.” Master Xue waved his hand, “This way, it appears more authentic.”
After these words, the corners of his serious and drooping mouth curled up, showing a hint of a smile.
Mr. Feng chuckled by his side.
Indeed, there was a purpose behind this torn paper. If it was neat and tidy, it simply would not match Wenxuan’s disposition. Only a torn paper would make it seem genuine.
“You all continue with your work here, thank you for your hard work, I will go inside and check the situation,” said Master Xue.
“Yes.” Mr. Feng and Mister Ye responded, continuing with their tasks.
The news of Zhuang Qingsui’s admission without examination soon spread among those who came for the exam.
Those who heard about it were envious and sighed, but they also felt that it was to be expected. After all, she was Wenxuan’s student; it was only natural she caught Master Xue’s eye.
In no time, Zhuang Qingsui’s name spread quickly among those who came for the exam this year, as well as the students already studying at the academy.
Meanwhile, Zhuang Qingsui was walking down the mountain slowly with her head down, following Zhuang Qingning and others.
“You’ve made it to the academy and you’re not happy?” Zhuang Qingning pinched Zhuang Qingsui’s little face.
In the spring after the new year, kids grow quickly. Zhuang Qingsui was almost half a head taller than last year and looked more like a big kid now. Even her chubby figure was now somewhat slim and tall, only her cheeks still chubby.
It was still delightful to pinch, full of fleshiness and softness.
“Yes, I can go to the academy now. But I didn’t actually pass the exam,” Zhuang Qingsui pouted, “It’s so boring. I was looking forward to seeing what an academy exam is like, but I’ve lost my chance.”
Oh my sister, you are the champion of first-world problems.
“Even if you had gone, it would have been useless. You still wouldn’t have been able to see the academy’s test papers,” said Fan Wenxuan.
“How come?” Chu Jinzhou and Zhuang Mingli looked over in surprise.
“Because after you enter, you wouldn’t have to take the test.” Wenxuan said, “You just have to sit inside with pen, ink, paper, and snacks—all prepared for you. After sitting inside for an hour they would let you out.”
“This women’s academy really is interesting,” said Zhuang Qingning, laughing. “The tests start at the foot of the mountain, and they don’t just depend on how the essays are written, they also observe the candidates’ morals and temperament.”
“Naturally,” Wenxuan nodded. “Studying is originally for the cultivation of one’s morality. One has plenty of time to read more books in the future, but temperament and character are harder to change. So they obviously matter more.”
Master Xue’s broad-minded and insightful views surpassed those of most men. The fame of this women’s academy is largely related to that.
“In other words, the teachers here are not rigid. They are not those old sticks who only know the textbook. Miss Sui will do just fine studying here.”
“I must confess, I was a little worried at first. But now, I’m feeling reassured,” Zhuang Qingning said with a small smile.
Zhuang Qingsui also smiled sweetly, “I think Master Xue is a wonderful person.”
“I’m really envious of Sister Sui’s academy,” Chu Jinzhou blinked. “I just wonder if there is any boys’ academy like it.”
If there is, it should also be very interesting.
“Aren’t you satisfied with me as your tutor that you’re thinking of going elsewhere?” Wenxuan gave Chu Jinzhou a chestnut. “Don’t forget, unless you can return the gift reciprocation I gave you, you’ll have to recognize me as the only one that’s truly masterful.”
“As I remember it, Jinzhou brother said earlier that the teacher gave him a roasted sweet potato,” Zhuang Mingli said.
“Yes, that’s right. And he’s already eaten it so he can’t give it back,” Wenxuan said with his hands behind his back, “so you better give up on that idea.”
“Indeed, gifts can bring obligations. This saying is not false, and there seems to be no solution to it,” Chu Jinzhou made a funny face, making everyone burst into laughter.
Zhuang Qingsui’s successful enrollment in the women’s academy brought happiness to everyone. On their way back, they were full of joy and laughter, making it a lively journey.
