"That child studied less than other children, and it is normal for him to be unable to keep up. Recently, another child wanted to spend more money to study, but there was really no place in the house, so the scholar wanted to drive the poor child away. , to make room for rich children. The key is that he has a rule that if a student voluntarily drops out of school, the rest will not be able to withdraw. So every time he deliberately embarrasses those children who cannot give him benefits and forces them to withdraw. If you go to school, you can make room for the children of wealthy families, and you don't have to retreat to study. What do you mean when you send your children here, you don't spend money in vain? Scholars do this kind of thing a lot."

"Damn it!" Wang Cuizhen was furious after hearing this, and wanted to go to the scholar to settle the score again.

Li Mumu quickly grabbed her, "Sister-in-law, didn't you agree that you will listen to me today?"

After saying that, she lowered her head and saw a little boy looking at the candied haws in her hand eagerly, looking very greedy.

Li Mumu smiled and said to him: "Kid, do you usually do activities here?"

The little boy nodded, and Li Mumu said, "Do you also know what this uncle said?"

The little boy nodded again.

Li Mumu then said: "In a moment, if you can tell me what you know, I will give you this bunch of candied haws. How about it?"

Li Mumu didn't expect the uncle selling candied haws to speak.

He sells candied haws on a stick here and hopes to make money from those students.

If she wanted to prevent the scholar from running a school, it would be equivalent to making this uncle lose a lot of money.

The little boy thought for a while, nodded again, and sure enough he stood there motionless.

Wang Cuizhen didn't know what kind of medicine Li Mumu was selling in her gourd. She was about to urge her to get down to business when she saw the scholar coming towards her not far away.

Wang Cuizhen was about to go up to the scholar to discuss the matter, but unexpectedly, Li Mumu beside her ran towards the scholar like a gust of wind.

As Li Mumu ran, she saw clearly that the scholar had grown a beard and was much older.

It looks like he must be around fifty.

At this age, he is still a talented person, which shows that his level is indeed limited.

"Sir!" Li Mumu rushed to the scholar.

He calmly noticed that although the scholar's outer clothes were made of ordinary cotton, the bits exposed inside were made of fine satin.

There is also a jade pendant tied around his waist, which is not of good quality but is obviously beyond the scope of a scholar's affordability.

Li Mumu immediately showed a flattering look on her face and handed out a ball of cloth, "Sir, I am Gu Baiyuan's third aunt. Please take care of our Baiyuan, please."

When the scholar saw Li Mumu and ran forward, he saw that she was wearing coarse cloth clothes. At first glance, she looked like a farmer's dress, and he still looked down upon her.

But when he saw the cloth bag she handed him, the scholar immediately smiled and said, "This is so expensive."

After the scholar took the cloth bag, he felt something was wrong when he touched it.

At this time, I heard Li Mumu say: "It doesn't cost anything, it doesn't cost anything. We farmers can't get anything valuable. I picked these wild vegetable dumplings yesterday, cleaned them carefully, and steamed them this morning. I pay attention to them." It’s just the original flavor. If you don’t mind, just treat it as an extra dish for lunch, right?”

Li Mumu laughed sheepishly, "Our family can't give us anything valuable, and Shu Xiu is all we can give. But our intentions are not bad, so don't dislike it. The wild vegetable dumplings look inconspicuous, but I picked the tenderest parts for more than an hour, and they are delicious."

When he heard that it was worthless wild vegetable dumplings, Xiucai suddenly lost his temper and said, "You guys go back."

After saying that, the scholar entered the school with a bag of wild vegetables.

Li Mumu quickly took Wang Cuizhen to squat in the corner she had targeted for eavesdropping.

"When did you prepare the wild vegetable dumplings?" Wang Cuizhen asked.

"I asked Xiuxiu to help me pick them yesterday afternoon." Li Mumu didn't know wild vegetables, let alone which ones were edible.

But she guessed that Yong'an Village was so pristine that there must be edible wild vegetables, so she pulled Gu Xiuxiu to help her identify them.

After picking a basket, she got up early this morning. Gu Xiuxiu made steamed wild vegetable dumplings for her.

She leaned into Wang Cuizhen's ear and said, "Sister-in-law, in a moment you..."

As soon as the scholar entered the room, he saw Gu Boyuan appearing in the corner seat of the last row again. Thinking of the wild vegetable dumpling in his hand, he suddenly felt unlucky.

The village man in the mountains is just vulgar and will never be able to get on the stage.

Even the gifts are so hard to get!

"Gu Boyuan, why are you still here!" Xiucai said angrily, "Didn't I tell you not to come yesterday?"

Gu Boyuan blushed and said, "I...I handed Shu Xiu's, but...it's not time yet..."

"You can't learn anything. You are as stupid as a pig. So what if you are handed over to Shuxiu? Get out of here!" The scholar shouted loudly, "My school will not accept stupid people like you!"

"A stupid bird knows how to fly first! You are stupider than others, but you don't know how to work harder than others. If you don't work hard yourself, even if you ask the chief minister of the dynasty, you can't teach a rotten tree like you! Go back and plant your land quickly !" The scholar thought of the wild vegetable dumplings in his hand and smashed a pack of wild vegetable dumplings on the table, "At least I can dig some wild vegetables to satisfy my hunger!"

The scholar's words caused a roar of laughter.

There were tears in Gu Boyuan's eyes. After reading the book, he became more ashamed and understood that this was an insult to him by the scholar.

He clenched his little fists tightly, choked with sobs, and said loudly: "I studied hard, and I have memorized everything I learned in school when I went back. I have obviously learned something! I have not failed to learn it!"

"Really?" The scholar sneered when he heard this, "Then tell me, a ruthless person will not be able to use his words, and he is afraid of the people's will. This is called knowledge. What is the next sentence?"

Gu Baiyuan hesitated, his face turned red and his eyes were red, his mouth was quiet, and he said after a while, "You...you haven't taught me?"

"I haven't taught you before?" The scholar continued to sneer and called a child in the front row, "Jiang Qixiao, tell me, what is the next sentence?"

The child named Jiang Qixiao stood up, held his head high, and looked at Gu Baiyuan with pride and disdain before saying, "The so-called knowledge lies in studying things. If you want to know something, you can only understand the things without understanding the truth." .”

"Listen, why can others do it but you can't? It's obviously because you don't listen carefully and don't endorse it diligently." Xiucai pointed at Gu Boyuan and shouted loudly, "If you don't endorse it seriously, you still lie and say I haven't taught it?"

Li Mumu was outside the wall, trembling with anger, gritting her teeth and whispering: "Sure enough, it was this scholar who opened the small stove to teach other children, so the other children knew about it, but Bai Yuan didn't."

"It's so hateful!" Wang Cuizhen was so angry that she almost cried, "My Bai Yuan is usually bullied like this here!"

At this time, the scholar held the cane in his hand and shouted to Gu Boyuan: "Take your hands out!"
