marriage contract

Mr. Nie was talking with the people from Zhengding Academy. Although the result of this competition was a bit unexpected, the people from Zhengding Academy still said goodbye to them gracefully, even if their faces were a little ugly.

There is an inn not far from Zhengding Academy, and the environmental conditions are good. There is no one in the group who is short of money, so they directly live in one room.

"I'm really sorry, the shop is full, and now there are only two rooms left, what do you think?" The shopkeeper was also very helpless, there were only more than 20 rooms in this inn, and as a result, this group of people almost took over the whole place when they came. , and now I still want four more rooms...

"That's two rooms." Gu Chengzhi directly wrapped up the last two rooms, one for his two attendants, and the other for him and Chu Junyi.

Chu Junyi didn't have any objections when he was listening, anyway, they had been living together for almost a year, but when he turned around, he saw Erye Zhuang's eyes that were full of gossip.

Chu Junyi: "..."

When Gu Chengzhi turned around and was about to go upstairs, he also saw Erye Zhuang's expression, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled coldly.

Second Master Zhuang immediately turned his eyes away, staring at Fourth Master Liu's face non-stop, rubbing his arms with his hands, goosebumps were about to come down...

They each went back to their rooms to clean up. After dinner, Mr. Nie borrowed the open space in the backyard like a shopkeeper, sat on a stone bench and looked at the disciples standing in front of him, "What can you gain from these few days of competition?" ?”

The disciples below looked at each other, and then began talking in a hurry.

Chu Junyi and Gu Chengzhi stood as wallflowers. Anyway, they came late, and they have never experienced such love and hatred...

Also silent were Second Master Zhuang and Fourth Master Liu, as well as the two companions behind them.

Mr. Nie listened with lowered eyes, and then asked Second Master Zhuang to talk.

Second Master Zhuang recounted the events of the past two days with a dry smile. Mr. Nie glanced at him and asked Fourth Master Liu to speak again.

Fourth Master Liu paused for a moment before starting to analyze the situation of the past two days.

Mr. Nie nodded after listening, his eyes swept over their faces, and suddenly said: "Jun Yi, what do you feel after listening to what they said just now?"

Chu Junyi was startled, and seeing that Mr. Nie didn't mean to be joking, he thought for a while and said, "I just think...it's a bit polarized..."

"Go on." Mr. Nie said, but his eyes looked at other people.

"In the past two days, there were seven matches, but today there were six matches in two rounds, but Brother Zhuang and Brother Liu both failed..." This kind of excellent people is getting better and better, while the ordinary ones...

"Starting tomorrow, Xiao Zhuang and Xiao Liu are not allowed to leave the competition." Mr. Nie looked at Gu Chengzhi and Chu Junyi again, "You two are the same, you are not allowed to leave."

Chu Junyi: "..." I really just came out to make soy sauce!

After the lecture, Chu Junyi hurried back to the room. After waiting in the room for a while, he saw Audio-Technica walking in calmly.

As soon as Zhuang Erye entered the room, he looked at Chu Junyi with the eyes of a rare treasure, and stared at him directly...

"By the way, how did you come up with those words?" Second Master Zhuang wanted to ask him.

"Those words?" Chu Junyi was startled.

"It's what you answered Master just now." Second Master Zhuang found a seat and sat down, and Fourth Master Liu also sat next to him.

Gu Chengzhi didn't sit down, but stood by the window with his arms folded.

Chu Junyi hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Is there a problem with what I said?"

"No, I'm just curious." Second Master Zhuang waved his hand.

Chu Junyi frowned and looked at the three of them.

"Some things are hard for us to say, so we kept chatting. Master must have seen it, so I asked you." Fourth Master Liu explained.

In recent years, Mr. Nie has stopped accepting his disciples, and they have been brothers for many years. If such words are said from their mouths, it may make the other party feel bad.

Chu Junyi also understood at this time that this study tour should be prepared for other people. Zhuang Erye and Liu Siye are very capable, and they are responsible for everything in the academy, and other people are used to it .

They came out to study and communicate, but the two of them frequently ended up in the competition, so they couldn't train others. That's why Mr. Nie said that just now, not letting the three of them end in the competition.

As for him, it's just an addition.

Knowing Mr. Nie's good intentions, the four of them began their wallflower journey. In short, there are two words - crowd.

When Zhengding Academy launched a challenge, they watched; when the two sides started a competition, they watched; when their side won, they watched; when their side lost, they watched.

Seeing the little friends being abused by each other, Chu Junyi's mood is really a little delicate.

The pleasant communication time ended soon. Mr. Nie smiled and said goodbye to the head of the Zhengding Academy, and then boarded the carriage and drove to the next destination.

And those who have been abused in the past few days have a feeling of being reborn, as if they have grown a lot overnight.

When I arrived in Shunde Mansion, I went to the inn first, and only after I settled down did I start to study the issue of exchange and learning.

Xingtai Academy is located in a village south of Shunde Prefecture. Although it is not top-notch, this academy is very famous for its articles.

Different from the comprehensive exam of Zhengding Academy, the competition here is only one—article.

Chu Junyi silently covered his face, he is weak in articles...

This time it was no longer a one-on-one duel, but both sides sat down at the desk and began to write articles based on the proposition.

Finally, Mr. Nie and a teacher from Xingtai Academy reviewed the article together.

The outcome of the two sides is evenly split.

And Chu Junyi originally had no hope for this exam, but when he saw the red comment on the exam paper, he was stunned.

"How's the answer?" Zhuang Erye poked his neck and glanced at his face.

Gu Chengzhi glanced at his paper twice, then put it aside and ignored it. Seeing that Chu Junyi was still staring at the paper in his hand in a daze, he also moved over.

Chu Junyi was just a little dazed, but he was not stupid. How could someone not know when he read his paper, he folded the paper and asked calmly, "What are you looking at?"

"It depends on how you answer." The words were not reserved at all, Zhuang Erye said again: "Your writing is pretty good, and you can pass it after two months of hard work."

Back in the room, Chu Junyi looked at the paper in his hand in a daze, and when he saw Gu Chengzhi, he said directly, "Lend me your copy."

Gu Chengzhi glanced at him, threw the paper to him, and sat down at the table drinking tea.

Chu Junyi picked up his paper, opened it, read it carefully, and found... Xueba really couldn't be more annoying!

Gu Chengzhi's essays were much more meticulous than before. Chu Junyi knew that he was going to hit the first rank. At this speed, the chances of passing the first rank in the palace examination were very high.

Gu Chengzhi took his share, opened it to read it, and asked, "The writing is not bad, but what were you thinking just now?"

"Father once said..." Chu Junyi looked at the above comment in a complicated manner, lowered his eyes slightly and said, "I have no talent."

"No talent?! What talent?!" Gu Chengzhi said in surprise.

Chu Junyi didn't speak, but pointed to the paper in his hand.

Gu Chengzhi frowned, read the paper again and asked, "When did you say it?"

"Probably..." Chu Junyi thought for a while before saying, "A few years ago, my mother hadn't passed away at that time."

"You were only so young at that time, how could you see your talent!" Gu Chengzhi looked at him with a frown.

Chu Junyi smiled wryly. The problem is that he was not a child at that time. He was not very old when he died in the previous life, but his age in this life is not too young. Many things in the previous life had a profound impact on him, and he couldn't pretend to be ignorant toddler.In the case of having the memory of the previous life, learning this kind of thing and still learning it like that, is not lack of talent or something...

"Why do you say you have no talent?" Gu Chengzhi asked.

"..." Chu Junyi was thinking bitterly: because he wrote classical Chinese in the vernacular, in this ancient environment...

"Then what do you think? You also think you have no talent?" Gu Chengzhi looked at him.

"...I don't know, I really believed it when my father said it, because these things..." Chu Junyi smiled helplessly, "But after reading the book, I thought it was pretty good, but there is no systematic What kind of books have I read, just blindly reading one by one..."

"That's why I let you come to the academy to study. The books you read are too complicated, and you need someone to guide you back to the right path. Most of the exam questions in Chunwei and Qiuqiu come from certain areas. Based on your previous situation, you only need someone to lead you back to the right path. You can rely on your luck." Gu Chengzhi put the paper in his hand in front of him, "It's not that you have no talent, it's just that your heart was not on the right track at that time."

Looking at the comments on the paper, Chu Junyi remained silent.

Gu Chengzhi stood by for a while and then left, leaving Chu Junyi staring at the paper in a daze.

He seems to have made a mistake. No one has guided him these years, so he always remembers what Master Chu San said, because he is the person who can guide him most correctly.

But Master Chu San's words were aimed at him when he was young. He has been working hard these years, even if he is not very active, but he will always be much stronger than when he was young.

The books that this world needs to learn are not the Tang Poems and Song Ci that were printed in the textbooks in the previous life, nor those classical Chinese appreciations. There are no annotations and full-text translations under the books.

He needs to learn and analyze bit by bit... Perhaps, it was at that time that he became bored with these things and felt that he couldn't learn them, so he quickly accepted what Master Chu said that he had no talent.

Caressing the comments on the paper, Chu Junyi raised the corners of his lips.

The door of the room was pushed open suddenly, Gu Chengzhi entered the room with a bowl of medicine and walked to Chu Junyi's side.

"This is?" Chu Junyi stared blankly at the medicine bowl in front of him.

"You should take your medicine." Gu Chengzhi put the medicine bowl on the table.

"Wait! I remember that my medicine has been stopped!" Chu Junyi said angrily. If he hadn't stopped taking the medicine, he might not be able to come out. Taking the medicine twice a day, who can guarantee to keep an eye on it outside? .

"Physician He said to take it once every five days. There was a problem with the medicinal materials before. This medicine is prepared now. Drink it." Gu Chengzhi pointed to the medicine bowl.

Chu Junyi: "..." So, even if he goes out to study abroad, he can't escape the fate of drinking soup, right? !
