Zhou Jia cupped his hands in the direction of the capital and said, "You don't know the inside story. His Majesty cares about these lonely children and is worried that they will be homeless. His Majesty is busy with government affairs and can't do these things personally, so he allocated silver from his private stash to subsidize them. We're all sharing His Majesty's burdens."
When Mr. Lu heard Zhou Jia's words, he felt that he had made the right choice to agree to come to the Zhou Mansion to teach the two children. Now, it seemed that His Majesty really trusted Lord Zhou and his wife. He had a teacher-student relationship with Lord Zhou's young master and would have a backer in the future.
Mr. Liu touched his injured leg and thought about how he had originally thought that he could only be a farmer for the rest of his life. Now that he could pick up books and teach these children, he had not studied for so many years in vain.
