Nowadays, there is no serious concept of imperial examinations. Learning literature and martial arts for the children of the gentry is just a necessity for enriching their reputation, and it is also a habit cultivated by the family. The children of poor families study hard, hoping that the knowledge they learn can be used as a stepping stone to make friends with the children of the gentry in the future. .

This is the same as in modern times. It seems that there is a natural chain of contempt. Those who have gone to college despise those who have not, and those who have gone to a good university despise those who went to three books. Maybe most people will not show this kind of contempt on their faces. On the surface, but subconsciously, the division of grades still exists.

But at this time, there is no exam, and it is all based on birth, which seems a bit unfair to some people. When people go to high places, they will inevitably want to stand out. At this time, knowledge is the best stepping stone. The reserve of knowledge does not allow others to speak a word without knowing the source and meaning, and unable to answer the words, so that they can chat.

Under this kind of demand, there is no requirement to recite the whole text in all cultural courses. Of course, if you have high demands on yourself, you must recite some things, but these are not the private school teachers. The requested content is gone.

There are no more martial arts classes, and when daily activities are mainly hobbies, Ji Mo's daily study becomes easier, with no homework or tasks, as long as he can answer the occasional questions of the husband correctly, he will not be able to play all the time The kind that gets punched.

After half a day of culture class, Ji Mo will go outside to find Wang Zichu in the Taoist temple.

He went there the next day, strike while the iron is hot, he can always gain another wave of favorability, whether he succeeds or not, he always has to give a reply.

The apprenticeship ceremony prepared by the aunt was also taken by the servants, and they walked up the mountain together, but there were no adults present, and there were some slight flaws, considering Father Ji's official position and being busy with official duties, it was reasonable.

In the Taoist temple, Mr. Xuan Yang already knew about this matter. With a solemn face, he frowned slightly when he saw that there were no adults around Ji Mo: "Young master should discuss these matters with your family more."

This seems to mean disagreement.

Wang Zichu stood aside, pursing his lips tightly when he heard such words, obviously unhappy, but he didn't dare to intervene, glanced at Mr. Xuanyang, then quickly looked away, lowered his eyes, and didn't dare to look at Ji Mo.

What do you mean when someone comes here excitedly with a gift, but the door will be shut down here?Obviously, obviously they have already agreed.

The little emotions and opinions in his heart were all revealed in his eyes, and Wang Zichu also knew that he couldn't hide his thoughts, so he simply didn't look at anyone, just stared at the ground in front of his feet, rubbing silently with the toe of his shoes.

"To tell you the truth, I already became a teacher yesterday, and I hurriedly made up the gift after I got my family's consent. I was negligent in this section, but seeing Lie Xinxi, I dare not waste the opportunity. I hope that sir will take pity on me to learn from you." My heart, forgive me a little, in the future, I will study painting seriously, and I will live up to my master's promise and my husband's expectations."

Ji Mo had a premonition that it would not go well, and when Mr. Xuan Yang gently reminded him that this would not happen, he suddenly thought that this might be Wang Zichu's uncle, and this could also explain why a person like Wang Zichu could live in this Taoist temple safely Among them.

Anywhere, with many people and surrounded by walls, it is a small society. It is difficult to get along with a temperament that does not deal with people at all. If no one is covering, Wang Zichu may not live so comfortably. I think It's as simple as it is.

When Mr. Xuan Yang was young, he didn't say that his temper was as fierce as fire, but he was not a quiet and distant temperament. If that was the case, he wouldn't have to serve as a military adviser in the army. Hearing Ji Mo talk like this and blocking his mouth, he would Seeing that he was only one or five years old, he was angry and funny.

"You are still young, and you think about some things too simply. His paintings..." Mr. Xuanyang spoke softly. As a relative, he obviously understands some things the most, such as the depressing effect of the painting. When something happened, Wang Zichu would not be put behind the Taoist temple and ignore it.

Ji Mo knew before that the area under Ji's father's jurisdiction was very remote compared to Beijing, so one could imagine what those people who brought Prince Chu over here thought. The blood was there, and it was impossible to erase it easily, but this This kind of bad heart exists and makes people taboo, so I just send it away from afar and never see each other again.

"Master's paintings are very good!"

Ji Mo rudely interrupted Mr. Xuan Yang, and couldn't wait to affirm Wang Zichu's painting. In exchange for Wang Zichu's look up, he didn't have red eye circles or hazy tears, but Ji Mo seemed to see it. Like a little rabbit suddenly glowing with vitality, it seems that not only is the emotion in his eyes, but also the affirmation brought by this kind of recognition.

No one wants to always hear things like "you are useless", "you are incompetent", "you are useless", "what you do is useless".

People live a lifetime, maybe they don’t need other people’s sense of identity, they can go their own way and let others say what they say, but that can only be done by a very confident person. Most people will always be influenced by other people’s words, always instilling This kind of negative concept will make people feel frustrated, as if they will never succeed in anything, and will never succeed again. They will look like a waste all their lives, and living is just a waste of food.

Ji Mo doesn't know what kind of words Mr. Xuanyang will say, but as long as the words seem to have a negative meaning, he must refute and affirm, not because Wang Zichu is his master, but because of the systematic relationship between them. The teacher-student relationship determined by the task, but this kind of education method itself is wrong.

For some people, the affirmation of others may be the hand stretched out on the edge of the cliff to give him a hand. Even if you don't stretch out, don't just push people down with negation.

Out of disapproval at that point, Ji Mo looked directly at Mr. Xuanyang, with a hint of refutation, raised his voice and said: "I have seen Master's paintings, and I know what you mean. Mr. is blocking me. I'm kind, but I'm not ignorant. In all fairness, in terms of skill, have you ever seen other paintings that are better than the ones drawn by Master?

It can make the viewer feel empathy, and the excellence of this skill is already a Tao.Sir, you have become a monk and practiced Taoism. Don’t you have any experience of this?There are three thousand ways, this way may be small, but it may not be without followers.I would like to learn painting from Master, not to seek fame for profit, but to hope that these paintings will not be lost in time, without successors, and make the world lose a pearl. "

Wang Zichu, who had been listening all the time, trembled slightly, looked at Ji Mo, and a surge of emotion came out of nowhere, making him take two steps forward to come to Ji Mo's side, and stretched out his arms to pull him into the crook of his arms In the middle, hugged him, protected him, trembling slightly, even his voice trembled, looked up at Mr. Xuanyang, and said to him: "We have agreed, I will teach him, I will teach him everything I know. , we have agreed..."

If you talk about resistance, this is really not an impassioned word. It can't inspire morale, but discourages you. If you talk about expressing your position, this kind of statement is a bit self-exposing. An argument without evidence is like a castle in the air, and it will be toppled when the wind blows. Even with Wang Zichu's posture at the moment, he didn't appear to be tenacious. If Mr. Xuan Yang yelled, he might be the first to faint.

But these should be all he can do.

Ji Mo patted Wang Zichu's lower back lightly with his hand from behind - forgive him for his short legs, but being able to pat this position instead of the more embarrassing buttocks was already the result of his efforts to raise his arms.

Prince Chu Ruo was startled, his legs were almost limp and fell to the ground, his calves were trembling, he realized that it was Ji Mo who was taking the shot, he gathered himself together, bowed his head and returned him a small smile, if he was boasting, look How I behave, it seems that I hope to be reaffirmed again, so that this kind of struggle is not lonely and desperate.

"Master, don't be afraid, you are already my teacher, even if you don't have these apprentice ceremony, you are still my teacher."

Ji Mo comforted himself like this, but he thought in his heart that if Mr. Xuan Yang insisted on refusing to accept the apprenticeship ceremony, he would shamelessly pile up the things on the main hall and ignore them. He didn't believe that Mr. Xuan Yang could return them home. I offended people.

No matter how bad Ji's father was, he was still an official. At least during his tenure, he was a local snake. No matter how much Mr. Xuanyang's reputation was touted, he was still just a commoner. People in remote places like this are not afraid of officials. Will be willing to offend the officer.

Mr. Xuan Yang did not expect such a change. Looking at Wang Zichu who expressed his opinion so clearly, what he thought of was that when the child first came, he had seen his paintings, and he was not allowed to draw again after destroying them. The way he silently insists on painting is painful to see.

However, even then, he didn't dare to stand in front of him with his chest up and oppose his opinions. This child seemed to lack some courage by nature, and he was always silent, showing a little cowardice.

Not knowing whether he should be relieved or sighed, Mr. Xuan Yang looked at Ji Mo and sighed. If it was a woman of his age, he would be indignant that the little goblin just abducted his obedient nephew like this.

Now... I always feel like a villain who insists on breaking up this couple.

Abandoning this psychological awkwardness, Mr. Xuan Yang suddenly asked Ji Mo: "Where is the painting he gave you yesterday?"

Ji Mo was stunned for a moment, and said: "Don't worry, sir, I know that I can't just show it to others, I have already put it away, even Master told me when he sent me off, I will remember."

"If you don't want people to see you in the future, then learn it. ——Painting these, not rewarding others, what's the benefit?" Mr. Xuanyang, who is stroking his beard, obviously agreed, but still endured Is there any point in not using the previous military thinking to complain, but not being able to convert it into something of value?

Ji Mo took Wang Zichu's hand, felt the sweat in the palm, and said loudly: "The location of the pearl is due to the light and the dark? The flowers and trees are flourishing, and I have no intention of admiring them. Everything in this world, existence is meaning."

Mr. Xuan Yang shook his head lightly, maybe in a few years, he won’t look at the child’s big talk like this, a master who is useless to increase his fame, can’t show paintings that can’t be shown off to others, maybe this kind of persistence is also the way , but not necessarily someone can be consistent.
