Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 723 - 723: Going There

As a result, individuals who possessed strong moral values and knowledge began to question whether the three teachers were unsure about their situation. There was even talk of them considering attending a different college in the next county rather than remaining at their current college.

It was widely known that Shao Yunduan was forced to leave due to the influence of teachers who had been bribed by Zhao Guanghua.

However, most people did not pay much attention to it. Nonetheless, this incident raised concerns about the ethical conduct of the three teachers involved.

Interestingly, after leaving, Shao Yunduan went on to become a Provincial Champion.

This essentially implied that the teachers not only had poor ethical standards, but their knowledge was also questionable.

Therefore, there was little incentive for the students to remain at the college. The students discussed this matter discreetly, without intentionally concealing anything, which was not entirely hidden from the teachers’ knowledge.

Before long, the three teachers became aware of these discussions.

The teachers were both infuriated and humiliated by the students’ discussion, but they were powerless to act on it. They argued amongst themselves discreetly and feigned ignorance.

However, deep down, they knew that the future of Minghua College was bleak.

The students were not only planning to leave, but they also intended to extend their congratulations to Shao, the Recommended Nian, in the village, hoping to receive some valuable guidance from him.

Hopefully, that would bring some auspiciousness to their future!

The teachers were feeling increasingly dejected.

Although the students did not take any overt action, their mere presence served as a constant reminder of the teachers’ transgressions. The teachers attempted to act as though nothing had occurred, but the atmosphere remained tense.

Meanwhile, Shao Yunduan was not one to hold a grudge and was pleased to receive the students’ congratulations.

But what about them?

Should they visit him or not?

The teachers were hesitant to visit Shao Yunduan in case they were met with humiliation, but they felt it would be disrespectful not to pay their respects to a former student of Minghua College.

Moreover, they hoped to receive Shao’s blessings, and perhaps establish a relationship with him that could prove beneficial in the future.

If they could mend the bridge with Shao, it could potentially lead to valuable connections and opportunities.

As for the three teachers, they discussed amongst themselves and came to the conclusion that saving face was not as important as maintaining a good relationship with Shao Yunduan. They gathered the students and, on behalf of the college, visited Shao with gifts.

The teachers would join the group naturally.

However, when the college was discussing the visit, Shao Liulang had already rushed home, feeling annoyed and humiliated.

He found the whole situation to be incredibly irritating.

“Fifth Cousin, I thought you said you weren’t taking the exam. Why did you go ahead and participate anyway? You lied to us!”

Shao Liulang accused Shao Yunduan, storming towards the first section of the family with a tone of anger, as if Shao Yunduan had committed a wrongdoing.

“Hey, Shao Liulang, be careful with your words,” Ms. Fang intervened, defending Shao Yunduan. “Yunduan is a Recommended Man and a Provincial Champion, a respected scholar. You should show him some respect or you might face consequences. Don’t forget, he has achieved a higher level than you ever will.’

Shao Liulang was taken aback by Ms. Fangs stern words and was at a loss for words. “I…

There was a saying that went like this, and Shao Liulang knew he needed to respect it.

He had to admit that his cousin had achieved a higher level of education and success, and had become a different man from the one he knew before..
