Silly Scholar's Wife

"Brother Liu, you are here."

Mu Chenxi was on holiday, and the self-study room officially started. Liu Wenqing and a few poor students came over.

"Brother Mu, I'll bring a few friends over."

After Liu Wenqing and Mu Chenxi greeted each other, he introduced a few people around him, "Several brothers are talented and talented, and they are all excellent in character. Let's take them here today to see the study room you opened."

"Everyone, please."

Mu Chenxi stretched out her hand as a gesture of invitation, and said with a smile, "It's just that some students gather together to exchange and discuss knowledge, please don't be restrained."

"Thank you."

A few students were a little cautious, and they saluted together to express their gratitude to Mu Chenxi, "Mu is a righteous person, it is really our luck."

Mu Chenxi led them into the house, and he introduced as he walked, "There is a kitchen here, where you can heat or cook meals. The concierge is a couple. They are in charge of watching the fire and cooking, and they don't have to do it themselves. There are also a few free rooms. house, if it is inconvenient to go back and forth from home, you can live here, everything here is free and free of cost.”

When they came to the self-study room, they first saw the order sign on the door. There was a lounge for everyone to eat and drink, a seminar room for students to exchange knowledge with each other, a book room for students to choose books for study, and finally a lecture room.

"This classroom?"

Liu Wenqing was a little puzzled, looked at Mu Chenxi and asked, "Someone is teaching, or should Brother Mu explain it?"

"Ha ha."

Mu Chenxi smiled, "I don't have that ability. We can communicate with each other, and teaching is absolutely necessary. It's Mrs. Chen from the children's home. He will come over on the holidays to explain some questions to the enlightenment and children."

"but."

Mu Chenxi blinked and looked innocent, "Master Jiang from class A will also come over to explain some academic problems and comment on the articles. I wonder if Brother Liu is interested in coming?"

"Of course."

Liu Wenqing said excitedly: "Our masters in Class B, although they are also great Confucianists, but he admires Master Jiang so much, he must have something extraordinary. He also said that if he talks about political power and governance, he is not as good as Master Jiang. Master Jiang It is the way of all-round talents, and he is proficient in teaching and educating people, as well as in governing the country."

The few poor students who came with him heard Liu Wenqing's words, and their eyes showed eagerness, "If I can get some advice, I really want to thank Mu Juren for his kindness."

They bent down and gave a deep salute. They thought that Mu Chenxi was just helping to solve some poor families' difficulties, but they didn't expect him to invite a wife, which shows the deep intentions.

"Please get up."

Mu Chenxi stepped forward to help, "Master Jiang, some of the audience and some students gathered here, specially asked me to come here, hoping to clear up your doubts. I also want to thank you, Master, with a heart of great love."

With that said, Mu Chenxi opened the door of the study room, and some students had already come inside.

The book room is surrounded by bookshelves, on which there are some books in different categories. In the middle is a long table, on which more than ten students sit.

They are all writing and copying some books.There are also a few younger students, about ten years old, sitting there quietly reading.

Mu Chenxi saw this scene with a smile on her face. She couldn't help but think of her former self. Even under all kinds of care at home, she didn't have such a good study environment.

He shook his head and abandoned the past, there is no need to think about the past, it is better to grasp the present and strive for the future.

After letting Liu Wenqing and the others take a look, Mu Chenxi closed the door gently and didn't go in to disturb her.

"They're all copying books."

Mu Chenxi said: "The library lacks a lot of books, and there is no time to collect them, so I can only copy them by myself to supplement them."

He looked at several students with a smile and said, "The transcribed books are the same price as the study. We provide pen, ink and paper here. Anyone who wants to participate is welcome."

"How can I collect money for transcribing supplementary books for the self-study room?"

A few students disagreed, "Mu Juren contributes money, effort, and thought, and we students who have come here to benefit can't just stand by and do our best, no matter what."

"Yes, Brother Mu."

Liu Wenqing also said: "Although you opened the study room, it doesn't make sense for you to bear everything alone. The students who come here should be everyone's responsibility. They contribute voluntarily. It's better not to let them down."

"Yes, I know."

Mu Chenxi said with a smile: "When I mentioned this, all the students objected. They wanted to do their part for the self-study room and the students from the same poor family. I persuaded them."

He looked at Liu Wenqing and others with admiration in his eyes, "In my humble opinion, the saying that if you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world. This statement is very reasonable, what do you think?"

"It's because we overestimated our capabilities, ashamed."

When these students heard this, they were all ashamed. Even if they wanted to contribute, they could do nothing but help with the transcription with their pens, and they even clamored not to be rejected.

"That's a bad word!"

Mu Chenxi sighed, he didn't understand their thoughts, he was one of them, "We haven't spread our wings yet, and we are at a time when we have more than enough energy, but when we emerge and become famous, we can let us fly as much as we want. Revenge in Zhan's heart."

"Keep your thoughts and save them in the future to help more poor students or more people in need."

Mu Chenxi watched their emotional changes, from shame and inferiority to thoughtful, and then gradually turned to firm and confident, she couldn't help smiling, and she couldn't lose confidence at any time.

"Happy."

Zhao Huan heard someone knock on the door, came out and saw that it was Mu Xinyue, and asked strangely, "Why didn't you come through the side door?"

"I have something to ask my brother-in-law."

Mu Xinyue smiled and said, "We came to see you on business, and we didn't dare to come over from that courtyard because we were afraid that elder brother would say we were bothering you."

She pulled her towards Mu Xinyi, "It's about the elder sister, she's too embarrassed to look for you, so I brought you here."

Zhao Huan looked at Mu Xinyi who was bowing her head in front of her, and said "Oh", "Come in, there is nothing to disturb."

He and Mu Xinyi met once, and it was the time when she was scolded by Mu Mu and ran away when she went home. She didn't even speak to each other. No wonder she was embarrassed to find herself.

"Brother-in-law."

Before Mu Xinyi could speak, her face was already flushed, "I'm really sorry to bother you when you're so busy."

"fine."

Zhao Huan smiled gently, "It's okay to talk about something."

"This."

Mu Xinyue was a little hesitant. Was she asking too much? A married woman needs help from her natal family. If her mother knew about it, she would probably be scolded again.

"Oh, big sister, why are you so inked."

During this period of time, Mu Xinyue gradually became more courageous after being favored by Mu Chenxi and the others, but she couldn't understand her elder sister like this.

"Brother, isn't there a porter and a cook and cleaner on the side of the study room? Why don't you see how big sister and big brother-in-law are doing it?"

"A porter?"

Zhao Huan heard that this was the case, and asked in confusion: "Isn't it working? Is there something wrong there, can't I do it?"

"No, it's because I earn too little."

Mu Xinyue said about her eldest brother-in-law doing odd jobs in a restaurant: "At that time, I was talking about learning crafts, but I haven't learned much after so many years. I mostly do sundries every day. I only get five hundred coins a month, and it was only this year. up."

"If you can come to be the concierge, the eldest sister can also have a job to do, and you can make another fortune, and you can move out to live more comfortably."

Mu Xinyue looked at her elder sister angrily, and said angrily: "The Chen family is a small family, except that people in the town don't have to farm, and they are not much better than us. Make some money and make more plans for your children in the future."

"Didn't you say that the Chen family is good?"

Zhao Huan thought about what Father Mu had said, and what Father Chen had done. He is a sensible person. How could Mu Xinyue be so excited?

"It's not bad, but the elder sister's mother-in-law and that Luo Shi have bad mouths, and the others are alright. Dad married the elder sister because of this, and he doesn't think their family is poor."

Mu Xinyue got along well with Zhao Huan, and she was young, so she told Zhao Huan everything about Chen Jiaqiong with the mentality that I would be nice to whoever was nice to me.

Mu Xinyi's face was flushed with embarrassment, she sat with her head bowed, embarrassed to speak, and let her sister talk about her family's predicament.

Hearing what my sister said about Zhao Huan's life, I also had a hope in my heart for him, that I could find a job here to earn some money for the family, and I could also save some money so that I could make more plans for my children in the future.

"came back."

When Mu Chenxi came back in the evening, Zhao Huan helped him take off his cloak, and moved his nose a few times, "I'm drinking, I'll get you hangover soup."

"Need not."

Mu Chenxi grabbed him and leaned on Zhao Huan's shoulder, "Daughter-in-law, I haven't seen you all day!"

"Going out to socialize and play with friends is essential."

Zhao Huan smiled gently, and gently rubbed his head, "I didn't eat two meals at home today, I must have been drinking. I've already made hangover soup, you'll feel better after drinking some."

"Brother Liu is all to blame."

Mu Chenxi raised her head, her eyes were clear and not a little drunk, "I'll invite everyone to get together at noon and get to know each other. He's fine, he won't let anyone go if he says nothing at night. If he insists on inviting him, he says it's to celebrate being able to be with everyone. Seniors know each other, this fate should be cherished."

"Brother Liu is an enthusiastic person."

Zhao Huan said with a smile: "You don't appreciate him very much. You usually don't praise him very much. Why are you blaming him today?"

Mu Chenxi blinked at him, and said confidently: "He delayed my going home to accompany my daughter-in-law, why can't I complain to him."

He smiled sweetly, and looked at Zhao Huan with more and more tender eyes, "Daughter-in-law, I really want to stay with you at home, but they are in a difficult situation, I will help them first, and if things go well in the future, you don't need to worry too much."

"it is good."

Zhao Huan nodded, seeing that Mu Chenxi wasn't too drunk, but was also dominated by alcohol, "Sit down first, I'll bring you some soup, I have something to discuss with you."

"it is good."

Mu Chenxi smiled slightly, "I'll listen to my wife."

Zhao Huan watched him sit down, and went to the kitchen to get hangover soup, "Drink all this bowl, I have to go to the academy tomorrow."

"Ah."

Mu Chenxi nodded obediently, took the bowl, drank the hangover soup in one gulp, and said with a smile, "Daughter-in-law, what do you want to discuss?"

"Discuss your scientific research."

Zhao Huan looked at him with a half-smile, "We Chenxi are so smart and knowledgeable, don't you want to take the science test?"

"Do not want to."

Mu Chenxi looked a little dignified, but looked at Zhao Huan blankly, "Daughter-in-law, I can't take the scientific test, have you forgotten?"

"I didn't forget."

Zhao Huan smiled slightly, "You just lost part of your memory, and you're not really stupid. Why can't you take the imperial examination? Even if you tell the public that you are well and have fully recovered, who would not believe it?"

"So! Prepare to take the imperial examination."
