little fool's child bride

"Mr. Xiao! There is a man named Feng Youcai outside who says he is your student. Do you want to meet?"

In the late afternoon, when Xiao Xiao was looking at the account book and felt dizzy, he suddenly heard Cong Xue's shout. When he heard that it was Feng Youcai, he immediately threw the account book aside, and then asked Cong Xue to let him in.Not long after, Feng Youcai walked into the small courtyard. He was wearing a long gown embroidered with green bamboo after changing out of the clothes of the Imperial College Supervisor, which perfectly displayed his elegant aura.Xiao Xiao invited him to sit at the stone table with a smile, and said while pouring tea for him:

"It's so early, have you had lunch?"

"Go back to teacher, I've eaten."

Feng Youcai squeezed the teacup nervously, and quickly said thank you after Xiao Xiao finished pouring the tea.Then he took out a few pages of paper, and Xiao Xiao took a closer look and found that it turned out to be a few pages of textbooks that she asked him to copy yesterday, so she accepted it dumbfounded, and said helplessly, "What time did you sleep yesterday?"

Feng Youcai was taken aback, thought about it for a while and said, "It's a moment of ugliness... But I didn't disturb others' rest, and everyone else went home early."

Xiao Xiao remembered that Feng Youcai and the others shared a room of ten, and under normal circumstances, even if he wanted to go to bed later, others would not agree.Moreover, the Guozijian required that the lights be turned off at Haishi. If the inspected Jiancheng found that he violated the regulations, he would be punished. That's why Feng Youcai always used the time in class to copy books.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao coughed: "It's not good to be discovered by Jian Cheng."

"That's what the teacher taught."

"From now on, I didn't say that I will give it to me within three days. There is no need to hurry." Xiao Xiao asked Cong Xue to get some money for herself and handed it to Feng Youcai. More time and money to do what you want to do, instead of making you really take this as a career. Although the money is not much, it is enough for your daily expenses, so you should focus on your studies I put this copy in my spare time such as lunch break. I heard from Dr. Zheng that you were once a supervisor of Taixue? Your articles are well written and your handwriting is not bad. It would be a pity if you just let it go to waste. Good pick up."

After listening to Xiao Xiao's words, Feng Youcai suddenly understood his good intentions these days, and the hand holding the money became tighter and tighter, which made him ache.I remember that when his Taixue classmates threw a few pennies in front of him in the past, he also pinched his palms to bleed, but at this time his state of mind was very different: he did not have the grief and indignation of being trampled on his self-esteem, and he did not have the resentment of being bullied. It's just gratitude and sadness to Xiao Xiao.He grew up relying on the inheritance of his ancestors, and when he had no money to travel, he was entangled by the villagers, so he wanted to get fame and fame to repay the villagers.But he always knew that those people were just trying to curry favor with future officials because they saw that he had passed the provincial examination. Feng Youcai's heart had always been gloomy and gloomy, and he felt that no one in the world really valued him.Later, he was admitted to Taixue, and he made so-called friends, thinking that his life would undergo earth-shaking changes, but unfortunately, it was only a flash in the pan, and he fell into the quagmire because of money.He resents those friends who only care about money, suffers from the pain that no one appreciates his talent, and is confused whether to continue, but at this moment, Xiao Xiao appears.

The novel way of teaching, the rich lecture content, and even Xiao Xiao chatting with them will make people feel enlightened and enlightened.From copying books in class to solving problems for money and then concentrating on listening to lectures, Feng Youcai fell under Xiao Xiao's charm in just ten days, like most of the others in the class.Later, because of the exam, he got those dessert coupons. For the first time, he "luxuriously" exchanged for a small cake, instead of selling him to those sons and sisters who had money but nothing to spend.

So sweet.

Feng Youcai felt that it might be the most delicious food he had ever eaten, which gave him the urge to eat it again in the future, so he readily accepted Xiao Xiao's invitation to copy books for him.But who would have thought that the teacher actually knew all along?

"Thank you, teacher……"

Feng Youcai's voice suddenly choked up, and he tried every means to help Xiao Xiao.

"Thank you, this is what the teacher should do." Seeing Feng Youcai's tears in his eyes, Xiao Xiao panicked, thinking that the ancient people were indeed much more emotional than modern people, no wonder they left behind so many poems.He sighed and comforted: "As long as you can study hard, I will be satisfied. Although I can't let you re-enter Taixue, I hope you understand that reading is like eating. Food will turn into our blood and flesh. The same is true for the books I have read. I often hear people say that reading is for fame and fame. I don’t agree with it, because if you look at books this way, it is really insulting to the gentlemen, and it is a burden to the Confucian masters. Books should be the ladder of human progress and the weapon to arm the mind. Weapons, it should not and cannot be a tool for fame and fortune, this is the so-called literati's strength of character."

"As your teacher, I naturally hope that you all have a good future, but I don't want you to take this as the only purpose of studying, do you understand?"

Feng Youcai nodded, and for a moment, it was like clearing the clouds and seeing the fog, and the confusion and fear of many days disappeared.He lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt down and kowtowed three times to Xiao Xiao, and said solemnly: "Students have been learning essays since childhood, but they just obeyed their parents' wishes and never thought about why they study. After entering mathematics, students are more It’s self-defeating, ignorant all day long, thinking that reading is useless. Today, after listening to the teacher’s words, I suddenly understood, and the students here swear: as long as the students can read the words clearly, they will not put down the books in their hands.”

Xiao Xiao was infected by his emotions, and was moved for some reason, and blinked a few times quickly to let the tears flow back.He quickly helped Feng Youcai up, and jokingly said with a smile: "Then don't think about it, the teacher is planning to get glasses out in his lifetime."

"But by the way, I'm going to hold an essay competition in Mathematics next month. Are you interested in participating?" Xiao Xiao pushed the snacks sent by Cong Xue to Feng Youcai, "There are topics, themes, and even an outline of the content. That kind, the minimum is 30 words. Then there will be one prize for the first, second and third prizes, and the bonuses are 20 taels, [-] taels and ten taels respectively."

"The teacher wants someone to write the essays for you?" Feng Youcai guessed Xiao Xiao's intentions as a person who has been writing homework for others all the year round. "The teacher might as well just take the bonus and go to the supervisors of the four schools."

"No, no, why do I, a teacher of mathematics, go to the supervisors of Simen School? Of course, I want the fat and water not to flow to outsiders." Xiao Xiao said mysteriously, "My article is not limited to writing style, but It is enough to be able to write, why bother those future grand scholars?"

Just ask to be able to write?Feng Youcai looked at Xiao Xiao puzzledly, but he was not a person who likes to ask too many questions, so he thought for a while and said, "Then everyone will have to participate in this competition, after all, it takes only two hours for five thousand words, really It couldn't be easier."

This is what Xiao Xiao wants to know.So he said happily: "That's good!"

The two chatted for a while, Xiao Xiao invited him to Ruifuxiang for dinner, then sent him back to the Imperial College, and then went to the dessert house to continue looking at the books.It's just that he hasn't watched it for long, and Liu Kaize, who had disappeared for several days, suddenly appeared in front of him, and then brought him two bad news:

"At first I always thought that the food and grass of the grassland army were not enough to support them in the war of attrition, but we did not expect that our calculation was wrong," Liu Kaize said solemnly, "I thought the big victory a few days ago would force them to retreat, but the frontline spies reported , They are actually stationed outside the pass, and have no intention of retreating. I don't know where they transported their food and grass..."

"When will Mu Yu come back?" Xiao Xiao was anxious.

Liu Kaize sighed helplessly: "How do you know? But it must be at least two months. But you don't have to worry about him too much, he has been promoted to commander-in-chief now, so he can't make any more contributions and come back as a general... "

How can it be so easy to be a general!Although Xiao Xiao didn't know how many officials there were in the middle, she also knew that there were only four generals in Baiyu Kingdom, and all of them were half-hundred veterans who had experienced many battles and were brave and skilled in battle—of course the honorary general Rongyu was not counted.From this, it can be known that it is not so easy to become a general. Xiao Xiao knew that Liu Kaize was coaxing herself, so she gave him an annoyed look, and said angrily, "Then there is another bad news?"

Liu Kaize considered it carefully: "Do you know that there will be banquets for the ministers in the Mid-Autumn Palace?"

Xiao Xiao rolled her eyes: "What does that have to do with me, I'm not even a Cong Bapin."

"But the Guozijian students are going to make a show," Liu Kaize looked at Xiao Xiao sympathetically, "It is said that the Holy Spirit remembers that you are still in the Guozijian, so I don't plan to do any singing and dancing this year, and just watch the shows produced by your schools."

"What!?" Xiao Xiao was so shocked that she almost fell off the stool.

"That is to say, you are going to perform in front of the emperor, and you have to get a ranking, otherwise you will be over." Liu Kaize shook his head while taking a sip of wine, and he was very speechless about the cautiousness of his brother, really Fortunately, he was taken away by his master back then and did not stay to compete with him for the throne.

Xiao Xiao was in despair: "Anaithology... Shall we go up and perform to settle accounts?"

"How is that possible? Of course it's a competition to play the piano and make a fu." Liu Kaize almost spit out a drink after hearing Xiao Xiao's words. "Also in mathematics, everyone is a literati. Playing the piano and making a fu is something every literati must know."

Xiao Xiao thought with a complicated expression, as if the ancient literati would indeed play these things together, and the most famous one is probably the song "Shui Liu Shang", which took drinking and reciting poems to a new level of elegance.But Xiao Xiao thought for a while about the group of students in mathematics who hadn't even passed the exam, and they didn't think they could compare with the supervisors in Guozixue and Taixue.Xiao Xiao couldn't help but hear the "crime of deceiving the emperor" that Liu Kaize said, and couldn't help feeling a chill down her back.
