Mr. Lu waved his hands quickly, "Never before. It's not just that I read a few books, but it makes you young people laugh. Now that I'm older, some specific details are really beyond my ability, and I can't remember them well, hahaha. .”

Shen Yuan thought this was harmless and asked: "Master Lu not only knows where the thinnest part is, but also why it is thin. So, does Mr. Lu know where the thickest part is?" "

"Ah... the thickest part, if my brain is still good, and I remember correctly, is it the back strap, which is about three millimeters?"

Shen Yuan smiled: "Master Lu, you are so humble. Hahaha, not only do you remember it firmly, it is also absolutely accurate."

Xiao Huanzi was greatly surprised. It turned out that the few people present were all powerful people, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration in his heart.

He thought carefully and immediately drew inferences: "Since the weakest middle band is one millimeter and the thickest back band is three millimeters, then the last remaining front band should be two millimeters, right?"

Shen Yuan marveled at his memory and elimination ability. She just said "muscles, bones, joints" and he was able to write it down and process it in his mind, eliminating the other two answers that had already been mentioned. Now he has used the same method to deduce the thickness of the front strap. He is really an extremely smart person. It is really a waste of such a brain to be used for physical work.

Although Shen Yuan knew very well that Xiao Hezi had no medical foundation and was not even literate, but so what, Tan Jincui and Li Yanni were both illiterate.

, but they are the two of them who are the most serious in their studies. Maybe the scholars and Jinshi she asked for before were wrong from the beginning.

She may have a natural prejudice against illiterate people, and at the same time have a very high delusion about readers.

However, before recruiting Xiao Hezi, Shen Yuan had one very important thing in mind to ask him.

"Xiao Hezi, you are right. My sister thinks you are very smart." Shen Yuan smiled and touched his head, "So, would you, a smart kid, be willing to tell your sister something truthfully?"

Xiao Zhen was very happy to be praised by Shen Yuan. In addition, maybe because he was focusing all his attention on talking, his bun had not hurt since just now, which undoubtedly made him feel good. , he immediately responded: "Whatever sister wants to ask, Xiao Xiuzi will answer truthfully."

Shen Yuan's eyes rolled: "Is Xiaohezi very short of money, so he has to move bricks with pain? But, Ayao, Ya'er and Xiaohezi are all eating, drinking and lodging in the caravan. Where exactly is this place? Are you short of money?"

Hearing this, Xiao Hezi lowered his head and muttered: "I'm sorry, Sister Shen Yuan, I know I was wrong... I shouldn't have taken my body seriously. Doctor Zhang finally used the willow branch to The bone-setting method connected my legs, but I violated my own body like this. I am so ignorant, wuwuwu, I am really sorry."

He raised his eyes and glanced at Shen Yuan, like a child who made a mistake: "But...Sister Shen Yuan, I can't tell you now, but I will definitely tell you in the future, okay?"

Shen Yuan thought for a while and replied with a smile.

: "Little pleats still have so many secrets."

"By the way, how is the situation at Feng Chime?" Shen Yuan didn't ask any more questions and started a new topic.

"Sister Feng Ling and brother Ye Jin have been very busy taking care of various matters in Tao County..." There was a distressed expression in Xiao Hezi's eyes.

Shen Yuan looked at him and carefully read what he was thinking.

She smiled and looked at Mr. Lu, "If Xiao Huanzi needs to recuperate, let's put him in Yanshan Academy. I will explain it to Mr. Tang myself later."

Mr. Lu hurriedly bowed: "Shen Xingsi, don't say that. Mr. Tang has already given the order. Your order is his order. There is no need to ask for his opinion, so whatever Shen Xingsi says, it will naturally be what it is."

Shen Yuan was overjoyed. She glanced at Xiao Hezi and confirmed that he had the same idea as hers: "So, can Ayao and Ya'er stay at Yanshan Academy together?"

Master Lu nodded: "Of course."

Hearing this, Shen Yuan and Xiao Xuzi looked at each other, showing the same joy.

......

Tan Jincui sat in the pavilion of Yanshan Academy and calculated. Recently, because she studied hard and answered questions enthusiastically in Dr. Shen's class, she received a lot of silver as a reward. That money was not enough to buy an iron pot. But I couldn’t buy much cloth, at least not enough for my children to spend this cold winter comfortably.

While Tan Jincui was making calculations, Li Yanni pointed to another announcement, "There will be an election for the junior class tomorrow, and ten people will be selected to enter the senior class. The senior class has a weekly assessment, and the assessment means having money, and, the senior class The operation and management itself still requires manpower. When the time comes,

, Doctor Zhang will definitely choose some people to help her manage the students' study status, homework completion status, and overall arrangements for outings. According to the female gentleman's character, these matters must all be rewarded with silver taels. When the time comes, let alone It's enough to buy some trivial pots and pans, or even a few hundred pieces of cloth! "

Naturally, Tan Jincui didn't believe that Li Yanni had such kind intentions. She looked at her suspiciously and said, "Why, now that you have climbed up to your rich and powerful county magistrate, you don't even want to fight with me?"

Li Yanni smiled and said, "Of course not, Tan Jincui, if I say you are stupid, you are absolutely right. If I really had a status in the heart of that county magistrate, would I still come to this academy to earn a living?"

Tan Jincui's husband died a long time ago. She didn't know that a man's heart can change rapidly. When she was with her husband, she just liked his honesty. Who would have thought that if he was too honest, he would be bullied. Later, , she gave birth to two children in succession. Her husband was gradually overwhelmed by the burden of life, and his health became worse day by day. It happened that there was a mine in Taoxian County, Jinzhou at that time, and he and several strong men from neighboring villages I went to the Jinzhou Mine. At first, my wages were paid quickly and plentifully. At a time when other families were running out of food and clothing, my daughter-in-law and two children were able to live a life of adequate food.

The more this happened, the harder Tan Jincui's husband worked. As long as he saw the happy smiles on the faces of his family, he was full of motivation.

As a result, the good times did not last long. The Chu family was suppressed by the central government and fell into decline. There was no longer any salary distribution. He and several workers went to the Chu family to collect debts, but were deceived by the Chu family.

After entering the mine, they smashed these people to death alive.

Of course, even if the Chu family is defeated, it will be a starved camel that is bigger than a horse. Naturally, a little person like Tan Jincui will not get any justice. Tan Jincui's father was furious because he couldn't bear the sudden death of his smart, capable, down-to-earth and good son-in-law.

With no other choice, Tan Jincui had to wipe away her tears, shoulder the burden of the entire family, and take her two children to the streets to find work.

Li Yanni always felt that maybe Tan Jincui didn't like her husband at all. She was with him just because she wanted him to be honest and willing to work. After all, if you really loved him, how could you adjust your mentality and take your children to the streets to find work a few days after his death?
