When the two of them arrived home, Li Qing had already sent his aunt back to the Lin family. The marriage proposal went very smoothly. Li Qing told Zhou Jia that the Lin family had a clan school in the capital. Uncle Lin wanted them not to lock their children up at home to study and send them to the Lin clan school to study with children their age. When Zhou Jia heard this, he felt that he should also go to the Lin family with Li Qing.
Lin Zexu said to Zhou Jia, "The Lin family's clan school costs five taels of silver a year. Students can't bring a servant to study with them. They have to do the grinding of ink and washing of brushes themselves. The child will eat lunch in the clan school and be sent to and from morning and night. In the clan school, other than the teacher teaching the child, Ah Lan, Ah Yun, and I have to attend two classes a month. You and Ah Qing can also come to teach the children in the future. Come with me to take a look before making a decision."
