The sad reminder of the science man

Xue Pan and Xue Chi are already six years old and ready to enlighten.

A few days after the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Father Xue invited the younger brothers to have a husband.To talk about this gentleman, it took Father Xue a lot of effort.

Xue Pan and Xue Jia are good in the eyes of Xue's father, and since Xue's father made the decision to hide three years ago, he naturally spends more time at home. Naturally, the contact with Xue Pan and Xue Jia is not as good as seeing each other every day!The closer I get to Xue Pan and Xue Chi, the more Father Xue can figure out their temperaments, and even though they were formally enlightened at the age of six, Father Xue would still teach my little brother a few words when he is in the mood. They have a certain understanding of their reading talent.

Although Xue Pan and Xue Chi are twins, they have different temperaments.Xue Pan is big and mellow, active and can't stop, but he is very loyal and treats his younger siblings very well.Xue Chi is clever, but also lazy, smart is smart, teach him to read and learn well, but when he comes across a linking article, Xue Chi turns his eyes in circles!For this reason, Xue's father is very worried, but the youngest daughter may have a talent for reading, but she is a sister after all.

Both Xue Pan and Xue Chi are not very good at reading. One is too noisy and can't calm down;For this reason, it is particularly important to choose Mr. Enlightenment for them.After three years, father Xue finally found a gentleman who was more suitable for enlightenment.This gentleman is not that old-fashioned. He asks students to memorize and memorize and memorize every day. He is not very famous, but Father Xue values ​​his flexible teaching style, so he was invited to Xue Pan and Xue Chi. Be Mr. Enlightenment.

Now the Xue family also runs a family school. After Xue's father rectified it, the atmosphere is not bad, but Xue's father is still worried about putting Xue Pan and Xue Chi in. He simply invited the husband to come to the house to teach. them.

My husband's surname is Li. On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Father Xue brought Xue Pan and Xue Chi to pay respects to him.In this way, Xue Pan and brother Xue Chi started their journey of studying.

Mr. Li really has two brushes, and within a few days he has mastered the tempers of Xue Pan and Xue Chi.Neither of them is stupid, on the contrary they are very smart.Xue Pan is the kind of carefree, rough and delicate person, with a bold nature and a generous personality. Although he can develop in the officialdom, he has great potential for development in the army.Xue Chi is smart, but his smartness is useless for reading, but for eating, drinking, having fun, and how to enjoy it. Yes, but when it comes to what it means, Xue Chi is simply an idiot.For those miscellaneous studies, Xue Chi can understand a little bit, but he still has to translate those articles into vernacular, otherwise he still can't understand.Mr. Li loves and hates such a geek Xue Chi, but he also knows that his ability is not enough to teach Xue Jia, so only the master can do it. Presumably, even if the master meets Xue Jia, it will be painful. Have fun!

Mr. Li shared his observations and his plans to Father Xue, "Master Xue, the two noblemen have different talents. If we use traditional methods to enlighten them, the effect will not be very satisfactory."

Father Xue also sighed, "Pan'er and Chi'er are my sons, I know their natural nature, so I specially asked Mr. Yu'er to teach Yu'er, even though I don't expect them to honor their ancestors, I hope they are sensible and understand human nature."

Mr. Li disagreed, "Master Xue, you are too self-effacing, Xue Pan and Xue Jia are both talented and intelligent, but most people in the world regard people with high reading talents as talents of pillars, but this is a big mistake. "

Although Xue's father thought that Xue Pan and Xue Chi were not stupid, they were not talented in reading. Hearing Mr. Li's words, he thought he was comforting himself, "Sir, don't comfort me, I know my son's talent. "

Mr. Li said, "No, no, Xue Pan is a generous man, and he is also very interested in the art of war. If he is properly taught, and with the support of the Xue family, he can be in the army like a fish in water, but I don't know if Master Xue is willing to let him go." Xue Pan abandoned writing and went to martial arts, you must know that suffering is suffering, and only then can you become a master."

Xue's father had long wanted Xue Pan to join the army. Now that Mr. Li has seen Xue Pan's character and future path in just a few days, he feels that he has hired the right person, "Then there is Mr. Lao!"

Mr. Li hastily declined and said, "I don't have that ability. It is still possible to teach Xue Pan to enlightenment, but it is impossible to go further. And since Master Xue has made a clear path for Xue Pan, let's invite a veteran who has been on the battlefield first. It is also good to teach Xue Pan some rules in the army, and when he is a little older, we can find a good master!"

Father Xue also knew that Mr. Li could say this, and he really thought of Xue Pan, so he hurriedly thanked him, "Xue has thanked Mr. for teaching the child here, so what about Chi'er?"

Mr. Li pondered for a while, "Master Xue also knows that Xue Jia has a good memory, right? He is very good at reading and memorizing. But the talent for comprehension of articles is really terrible."

Father Xue also sighed, "Yes, Chi'er is really worrying! Although his memory is amazing, he can't read the article. It's not that he doesn't work hard, but he can't understand it. But I explained it to him in plain words. , he sometimes makes surprising remarks. Hey, I don’t know whether to say that Chi’er is good or bad.”

Mr. Li continued, "Xue Chi is a geek, and he cannot be viewed with the eyes of ordinary people. If he is taught well, he will definitely achieve extraordinary things in the future, but if he is not taught well, he will be useless. Xue Chi is my teacher. No, but my master may be interested in Xue Chi, if you don't worry, please come and have a try, but I can't guarantee that the master will accept Xue Chi."

Xue's father had a great headache because of Xue Jia. He heard that someone could teach Xue Jia well, but he was still not at ease. "I don't know who the teacher is from, sir?"

Mr. Li smiled confidently, "Speaking of which, I am an inconspicuous one among the master's disciples, and my master is Cheng Xiu."

Father Xue was excited when he heard Cheng Xiu's name, and quickly asked, "But Cheng Gong, who is known as the Baisan old man, didn't hear that Cheng Gong's whereabouts are uncertain. I don't know where to find Cheng Gong. I will send someone right away, or I will go there in person." Please, please let me know, Mr.

"Since I told you that I am a teacher of Cheng Gong, I will naturally tell you the whereabouts of the master. The master is now in Hangzhou. This is the address. You go and invite me. I will write another letter. The master will naturally come with you." Mr. Li handed a letter to Father Xue.

Father Xue hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you sir for taking so much trouble for the child, please accept my worship." As he spoke, he wanted to salute Mr. Li.

Mr. Li hurriedly restrained Xue's father, "This matter is still uncertain. It is too early to thank you. Besides, if the master really accepts Xue Jia, then Xue Jia is my junior brother! This is not appropriate, and now I am Xue. Mr. Pan and Xue Jia Enlightenment, now that you are my boss, it is my responsibility for Xue Pan and Xue Jia to find their way, so I should never thank you."

Father Xue hurriedly said, "Sir, you are too modest! They are really lucky that Xiao Er was enlightened by your husband. Since you are so humble, I don't want to force others, but I still want to thank you. Xue heard that Mr. likes landscape paintings. One day, I got a copy of Ma Yuan's "Treading Songs" in the Southern Song Dynasty, Mr. Wang, don't refuse."

Mr. Li didn't say much, "Then Li is disrespectful. Thank you, Mr. Xue!"

"I still want to thank Mr. Xue sincerely. If it weren't for Mr.'s recommendation, Chi'er would not have met Cheng Gong. Regardless of whether it will be successful or not, Mr. Xue still wants to thank Mr. for giving this opportunity to my son." Father Xue said gratefully.

Mr. Li hurriedly said modestly, "Master Xue doesn't need to be like this. If Xue Chi hadn't really had this eccentric talent, I wouldn't recommend it to the master. You'd better go get some work first, and invite the master as soon as possible."

Father Xue exchanged some pleasantries with Mr. Li, then said goodbye and left to prepare.If Cheng Xiu Chenggong can be invited to be Chi'er's master, it will undoubtedly be good for Chi'er.It is obviously impossible for Xue Jia to take the imperial examination route; but Xue's father never thought about entering the military camp. Xue Jia can't bear hardships, and he has no interest in it; Wuwei being a landlord would not let him be a businessman.But if Chi'er can get the teaching of old man Baisan, it will undoubtedly be more convenient for him to do anything in the future.The old man Baisan is a famous Confucian, but he likes miscellaneous studies and has made great achievements. Many of the students he brought out are highly valued by the emperor. If Xue Chi can successfully worship Cheng Gong as his teacher, it will be very good for Xue Chi and the Xue family capital.

After all, the Xue family was born as a businessman in the eyes of others. The Xue family’s identity is hidden behind the scenes, and the emperor will not allow it to be exposed, so the current emperor’s business qualifications are not. , but the prejudices of the world are still very deep-rooted, and the status level is an insurmountable hurdle.There is a master who is Chi'er's master, and Chi'er can do well in the future, which is also a great help to Pan'er. Pan'er and Chi'er are twins, and Pan'er has a good personality. Maybe Cheng Gong will accept him when he is in office. Maybe Pan'er, even if he doesn't accept it, it's not impossible to introduce a master to Pan'er at that time.Knowing people with Cheng Gong is definitely not someone who is trying to catch fame.

As for the fact that the Xue family was originally one of the four great families in Jinling, the other three families had some influence, but that was not the strength of the Xue family after all, and according to the information in the hands of Xue's father, the situation of the three families was not very good, and they did not win the Emperor's favor. Now that his family has already started to withdraw, the Xue family will not fall into it again.

The revitalization of the Xue family can only rely on the Xue family itself, so for the sake of the family, Chi'er's success in apprenticeship is the first step. Since Mr. Li said that Chi'er is likely to succeed in apprenticeship, then Father Xue must make this success 100%.

Father Xue decided to invite Cheng Gong this time, and he would invite him himself, and he would also bring Xue Chi to show respect.You must not be weak in preparing gifts. Use the hidden clues in your hands to find out Cheng Gong's preferences and match them with what he likes.I also told Xue Jia to tell him to be generous when facing Cheng Gong and show his talent.So far, Father Xue has done what he can, and as for the result, let nature take its course.
