Chapter 58: Young Servant

The informant the Old Madam sent to inquire soon returned, reporting that Li Han's tutor was a Juren. According to the informant, the tutor had a very good reputation, and his talent and character were both commendable.

Once the Old Madam confirmed the tutor was good, she agreed to Yueyao's request to let Tingzheng go to the Li family to study. What she didn't expect was her eldest son's objection, "Mother, the Li family is on par with our own Lian family as a scholarly family. Yet now we are letting Tingzheng freeload off them; if word gets out, what will people think of our Lian family? Mother, I cannot approve of this."
