Chapter 81 - Make It Up

These people looked anxious. Xie Qiao had just come to the academy and did not know the rules yet.
Therefore, she was not angry. Instead, she asked in detail, "Didn't the academy say that we can choose our own classes?"
"That's true. It's just that…" Fang Muxue stood out and explained after exhaling, "Our academy will have all sorts of competitions every now and then. Everyone will spar so that we can find out what we're lacking…"
Xie Qiao frowned slightly.
"Sister Muxue, it's useless that you explain to her. Isn't she already slowing us down?" Xia Yayun scoffed. "Everyone from the Orchid Courtyard wants to go to the Peony Courtyard. With her here, I'm afraid others will think that we're idiots!"
"Yayun, did you forget what the teacher said yesterday?" Fang Muxue asked immediately..
She was biased against Xie Qiao yesterday as well.
However, it was more of a fear to her. After all, the Xie family's young masters and young mistresses were rather infamous.
Now that she thought about it, the teacher was right. Master Xie was an official now, not a bandit. Meanwhile, this Young Lady Xie… looked normal.
Since they did not know each other, there was no reason to be mean to her.
"I'm just telling the truth. We can't let her affect everyone, am I right?" Xia Yayun was stubborn.
Xie Qiao thought about what she said.
She said a moment later, "What's your name?"
"Xia!" Xia Yayun secretly jolted.
Xie Qiao nodded. "So you're saying that you want to get into the Peony Courtyard?"
"Of course. Who wouldn't?!" said Xia Yayun.
"Aren't we judged by our own ability to get into the Peony Courtyard? What does that have to do with me? Or none of you can't get into the Peony Courtyard just because I'm here?" Xie Qiao added.
That lady named Muxue was pretty gentle with her words. There would be exchanges between students, but it did not seem to be mandatory. If everyone else went and she did not, it would be inappropriate indeed.
She knew that as well.
However, what Xia Yayun said was rather irritating.
"Young Lady Xie…" Fang Muxue glanced at the both of them, feeling troubled, and said, "Actually… This is what happens. There will be grading for the sparring between the courtyards.
"The courtyard with the higher grade will be rewarded every month," she added.
Xie Qiao was stunned upon hearing that. "Rewards? The booklet doesn't say…"
'That Mr. Xu sure is mischievous, isn't he?'
Fang Muxue could not help but smile upon seeing her stunned face. "It isn't in the booklet. The rewards are handsome.
"I'm sure Young Lady Xie knew that the gift to pay to get into the academy is pretty expensive. Everything requires silver as well. Also, the academy has a request whereby students from every courtyard will have to do good deeds out there every two months. We'll compete to see who gives out more silver through the good deeds. Meanwhile, we make the silver from the competitions that we do every now and then."
There were many rules at the academy.
For instance, even the imperial prince and imperial princess could not bully others with their identity here.
If anyone dared to boast they were the young mistress from some family, they would definitely be expelled.
Also, the amount would be recorded if they did not make enough money to do good deeds at the academy. They would then have to bring money from home to make it up.
Their families did not lack in the insignificant amount of silver taels.
The thing was, everyone practiced the culture of showing off in the Imperial City!
If any of the family had to give money to make up for the amount spent on good deeds, then the child… would definitely be less likable!
There was nothing else that they could do other than completing the requirements as much as they could.
Now that Xie Qiao was here…
Indeed, that might increase the difficulty of completing their mission.
