As for the benefits those things brought, Xia Weibao didn't care too much about them.
What she cared about was Ruan Shushu, "Did you say Shushu also joined the National Studies Association?"
"Yes, she joined the Huaxia National Studies Association Folk Music Department. I heard she was exceptionally accepted by the department head, Pei Hong, and even became Pei Hong's direct disciple."
Xia Weibao frowned, as she hadn't heard about this.
Indeed, Ruan Shushu had failed her college entrance exams and was quite heartbroken about it.
To console her, she even gave her a Solitary Zither, which upset Yan Yuexian.
But later, she was exceptionally admitted to Imperial City University—so that was because she joined the National Studies Association.
"How did Shushu get into the National Studies Association Folk Music Department?"
"She's very skilled at playing the guqin and was discovered by Master Pei's keen eye and taken in as a closed-door disciple."
