The husband is the future chief [infrastructure]

The carriage traveled very slowly. Shen Zhou was getting old, and the driver worried that his body would not be able to withstand the bumps, so he tried to walk as smoothly as possible.

When they arrived at the private school, Mr. Cen had just finished his class. When he saw Shen Zhou coming, he changed the next class to self-study, letting them think about and digest what he said in get out of class.

Mrs. Cen asked the little boy beside him to make a pot of tea, and he sat down on the bench next to him, and Shen Zhou was sitting across the table.

After the tea was ready, the boy closed the door and went out, leaving only the two of them in the room.Cen Yan poured the tea into the cup, and a wisp of mist slowly drifted to the top. He moved the tea in the cup to Shen Zhou, and said, "It's been a long time since I saw you, why do you want to see me today?"

Shen Zhou took a sip of tea, didn't answer him, but tasted it and said, "Is this the old Longjing? Look at you, you used to drink the good Biluochun, are you used to it now?"

These words are very familiar, and the two should be very familiar with each other before.

"There's nothing I'm not used to. Anyway, I'm used to it now. To me, there's no difference between an old one and a new one."

"You, why are you so obsessed with that thing in the past? Let's see what you've become now. Where did the famous Confucian who was admired by the world go?"

Cen Yan laughed, as if laughing at himself, sighed, and said, "Don't bring up the past, it's fine now."

"Tell me the truth, you haven't thought about going back all these years?"

Cen Yan was silent, he did think about going back, but he couldn't go back in such a dispirited way now.

He avoided answering, and said instead, "You haven't answered my question yet? Why do you want to visit me today? I heard that you have been back for more than a month."

There has been no movement for more than a month since I came back, so it must be something to come to see him at this time.

Shen Zhou jokingly said: "Who do you think you are, an old bastard who wants to come and see you! I'm in a hurry to leave!" He paused at this point, and then said in a low voice, "That person called me back to Beijing urgently, I'm afraid Some people in Beijing can't hold back anymore."

Cen Yan didn't want to hear him talk about the temple, "I've been away from disputes for many years, and I don't care about the affairs of the court. Why do you come to tell me these things?"

"Really?" Shen Zhou thought of the question he was asked just now and he avoided answering it, and remembered that he was a wife now, so he guessed, "Are you planning to go back?"

Cen Yan glared at him, as if someone had stepped on his tail, and hurriedly said, "What nonsense are you talking about? When am I going to go back?"

Seeing him like this, Shen Zhou knew that his guess was probably close to ten, but he was curious as to what was the reason for this great Confucian who had disappeared from the world for many years to come out again.

"All right, all right, I won't mention it if you don't want to." Shen Zhou moved his empty cup over, "Pour tea and tea!"

Cen Yan said bitterly: "What kind of tea should I pour? My old Longjing is not worthy of you, Mr. Grand Tutor."

"How can you say that, I still like to drink the old Longjing from your place."

Shen Zhou changed his mind, stopped asking him the reason why he decided to go back, but looked at his private school.

"You have been staying in this small and remote place in the backcountry for the past few years, but have you found any good seedlings for studying?"

Speaking of this, Cen Yan seemed to have read the chatterbox, and said, "Don't think this place is small, it's also a big tree like your Shen family!"

"Looking at what you said, I think you have found some good seedlings?"

"I have taught here for so many years, and there are a few outstanding ones in this class."

Although there are few people in Class A, they are indeed talented in reading.Although Lu Shaochuan's character is not very good, if it is only about studying, he is more than most people, otherwise his father would not have sent him to study and placed high hopes on him.

Not to mention Cheng Yi and Lin Zhao, if you want to rank among Mr. Cen, these are basically the top three.

Cen Yan said that he is excellent, so he must be very good at reading.

Shen Zhou became even more curious, "Are there any special ones? Let me tell the old man too. If I pass the exam, I will be able to have me as a backer when I arrive in the capital."

"There is a young man in this class who is not bad, talented and intelligent, as if he was born to read, and he almost has a photographic memory."

"To get such a high evaluation from you, this son must be good. Does he have the demeanor of Chu Huaiyu back then?"

The name Chu Huaiyu was only mentioned by Shen Zhou in front of Cen Yan.

Sure enough, when the name was mentioned, Cen Yan looked angry, "What's the point of mentioning him!"

"Oh, don't be angry, don't be angry, this is the end of the conversation! Hey, seriously, what is the name of this person you are talking about?"

"Lin Zhao, it's not long since I came to study here. I observed it for a while. This child has a tough heart, has both virtues and, most importantly, empathy."

People who love love are not easy to betray, and Cen Yan doesn't want to experience the feeling of being betrayed before.

"Lin Zhao? Does he have an older brother named Jiang Ziyan?"

"I talked to him before, and he did have an older brother during the conversation, but I don't know what his name is."

Shen Zhou stroked his beard and smiled, "Are you planning to train him?"

Cen Yan confessed to him, and said, "Well, I want to show the world that I can teach a young master Huaiyu, and I can also teach a second young master Huaiyu!"

Chu Huaiyu lived up to his name, his face was like a crown of jade, like a fine willow Fufeng, he was highly praised among scholars, and he was very talented, so he was called Mr. Huaiyu.

However, no one knows that Mr. Huaiyu, who is praised by everyone in the world, had a very unbearable childhood.

It was at that time that Cen Yan met him, and then devoted himself to cultivating him, so that he has the reputation he has today.But in the end, he bit her back and reduced her to where she is today.

Knowing that he was thinking about the past again, Shen Zhou simply changed the topic back and said, "How old is this Lin Zhao you're talking about?"

"I'll be fourteen soon." He asked his age when he first entered school.

"Then next year's county test, he probably won't be able to catch up. I remember that Chu Huaiyu is already a scholar at this age, right?"

Well, while talking, it came to Chu Huaiyu again.

"No, I can catch up." Fortunately, Cen Yan didn't think too much about it. Although he was still obsessed with the past, now he had new hope in life, and he was much more energetic.

Shen Zhou was surprised, "Catch up? Didn't you say he's only been in school for two months?"

Cen Yan stroked his mustache, and his words were somewhat smug, "It's only been more than two months since I entered school, but this kid has read a lot of books before, and didn't I tell you that he is very talented , next year's county test, he wants to give it a try."

"He said he will leave the game? Why don't you stop him? If you study for another year and come back with a top name, then it would be better to humiliate your reputation."

"Oh, you don't know. This kid is very stubborn. I don't even bother to persuade him. What if he passes? What if he is the first name?"

Shen Zhou looked at him as if you were dreaming, "All right, all right, I don't care about you."

"As a student, I will definitely go to Beijing to catch the exam in the future. You should take care of me in Jiangcheng from now on."

"Why, your students will all go to take the exam in the capital, and you still plan to nest here?"

"Hey, who knows, if I can't survive the past few years with my old bones, I will have to rely on you!"

"Bah, bah, what are you talking about? It's said that the disaster will last for a thousand years, you old man still has a long life!"

In terms of age, Cen Yan is six or seven years older than Shen Zhou, but the two of them have always been friends of the same generation, and at this age, the difference of six or seven years is not a big deal.
