Be a master through ancient times

"Yes, it seems that you haven't slackened these days. Your poems are much better than before, especially these few poems, which are particularly brilliant."

"Thank you for your guidance, sir, so that the students can benefit from it." Chu Ci said, "Actually, the students have something to ask for today."

"what's up?"

"After the county test, the student will have to re-enter the county school to study. There is no one to guide the nephew at home, and he may delay his studies. The student wonders, can he be allowed to study in the Mengtong hall of the county school with the students?"

"He is still young, why not put him in a private school in the village and have his parents take care of him, wouldn't it be better?" Master Qin felt that the child was too young, and he would definitely not be able to adapt to it.

"This..." Chu Ci struggled for a while, but told Master Qin about his current predicament.

Master Qin was also a little embarrassed after hearing this.At that time, he was eager to seek talent, and couldn't bear Chu Ci's wasting his talent in the original academy, so he tried to coax people to come to the county to study, but he didn't expect that Chu Ci would suffer from the eyes of the old master in the village.

"In that case, I will go with you to talk to the head of the mountain. When the time comes, you will bring him, and you will take care of him as soon as he takes care of him."

The servants are also not allowed to serve in the Mengtong Hall. After their clothes are changed, they will be handed over to the servants of the county school to clean them, and then return them to everyone.Meals are eaten in the county school cafeteria.You can only rely on yourself for other things.

"Yes, thank you, sir." Chu Ci smiled, presumably at that time, the husband should think of a way to get Chu Xiaoyuan to move out of Mengtong Hall to live with him.

"Don't be too happy, if he is too noisy, others will sue Shan Zhang, then there is nothing I can do."

"The student will definitely restrain my nephew so that he does not disturb others." Chu Xiaoyuan is so obedient, so he shouldn't be too noisy.

The two discussed knowledge for a while, and the teacher's wife called for dinner.After eating, Chu Ci wrote another policy in front of his husband before he was released.

It was already dark when we arrived at Zhang's house. Chu Ci came to the study and was very relieved to see that the lights were no longer bright inside.In fact, in Chu Ci's view, their level has reached the standard of a scholar. Even if the ranking may be a little lower, at least they will not lose the ranking if they maintain it.

The next morning, after a few people practiced Wuqinxi, Zhang Wenhai and Fang Jinyang suddenly said when they were eating together, "Thank you, Brother Chu, for your hard work. The two of us have already known it, and we will never do such self-destructive actions in the future." It's a matter of the future."

"You two are serious. It's just that the body is the foundation. The county test is coming soon. If you miss it because your body can't support it, it would be a pity. You must know the truth that too much is too late."

"What Brother Chu said."

The two handed each other, and in the next few days, they reviewed completely according to Chu Ci's arrangement, not daring to disobey it in the slightest.Chu Ci was a little helpless, but fortunately, it was only a few days.

On the eighth day of February, Chuci prepared another mock exam for them. The posture was still the same, but the two were no longer as unprepared as last time.

After a day of exams, he was still chatting and laughing happily, and stood beside Chu Ci to watch him correct the exam papers.

"If there are no natural disasters and man-made disasters, there should be no problem in getting it." While they were holding their breath and waiting for the result, Chu Ci said such a sentence, which immediately relaxed their spirits.

Chu Ci is not saying this in vain.During this period of time, he used shopkeeper Lu to read basically all the articles posted in the previous seven or eight years, and also inquired about the style of writing that County Magistrate Yang liked.After many summaries, Chu Ci dared to draw a conclusion that they should be stable this time.

With inexplicable enthusiasm, time flies by.

It was already February [-]th, and Zhang and Fang went to the county seat to get their admission tickets with their life insurance certificates.The registration was on January [-]th, and they had already registered by then.

After Chu Ci packed up his things, he left the Zhang family.Counting the days, he has been working as a teacher in the Zhang family for three or four months.

Zhang's father and Zhang's mother are also in Ping'an Town today. They came out together to bid farewell to Chu Ci, and they settled the monthly money for the past few months.

In general, the monthly silver price for a teacher in a private school is no more than five taels of silver, while a teacher from a wealthy family usually pays two taels of silver. Because of Chu Ci's reputation, Master Zhang at that time offered him ten taels of silver a month.

Now when Chu Ci mentioned the package, he found that the weight inside seemed to be a bit wrong. It should have been about 40 taels, but when he opened it, there were 100 taels of silver inside.

As if seeing that Chu Ci was puzzled, Master Zhang said: "Chu Xiucai has worried too much about my son these days, we have no other way to repay you, only this vulgar thing to express our heart."

"No, a gentleman loves money, and he gets it in a proper way. Once you negotiated the price with Mr. Zhang, you can't change it arbitrarily. Otherwise, how will you win people's trust in the future? Please ask Mr. Zhang to take back more, otherwise I will not dare to change it in the future." Here comes the door." Chu Ci said.

Master Zhang and Mrs. Zhang looked at each other, and praised: "Chu Xiucai is righteous, he is really a model of a gentleman. It is because we have not thought carefully and acted recklessly, please don't take offense at Chu Xiucai."

Master Zhang took away 50 taels, and then said: "No matter how long or short the month is, this bundle of cultivation should be given to all-round talents, so as not to neglect talented people. I also ask Chu Xiucai not to refuse any more."

Now that this is the case, Chu Ci will naturally not push it any further.

He thanked the old man and went back to the village.

After staying at home for a long time, on the morning of the [-]th, he carried the package and took the tearful Chu Xiaoyuan to the county seat.

"Brother Chu, you are here!" When Zhang Wenhai saw Chu Ci, his uneasy mood settled down. If he didn't see Chu Ci before the exam, he would not get better.

"Here, I wish you, Brother Kuo, all your wishes come true tomorrow."

"Thank you, Brother Chu, come in quickly. Jinyang has gone home, and his grandparents and father and mother just said that they want to have a banquet to thank you. By the way, is this in your car?"

Zhang Wenhai looked at the child who lifted the curtain and secretly watched him, and suddenly became interested.

"This is my nephew, and I will go to the county school to study with me soon. Xiao Yuan, say hello to Uncle Zhang." Chu Ci hugged him out of the car, and then patted his little head.

"Hello, Uncle Zhang." Chu Xiaoyuan was a little dazed. Although he always knew that he and his uncle would come to the county to go to school this year, he was still a little bit reluctant to leave home for the first time.

"Hi, it's the first time we meet. I don't have anything around me. You can keep this jade ring in your hand." Zhang Wenhai groped for a while and found only one jade ring in his purse, so he tore it off and gave it to Chu Xiaoyuan.

Chu Xiaoyuan looked at Chu Ci, and saw him nodding before taking it: "Uncle said, the gift from the elders is irresistible. Thank you, Uncle Zhang."

Zhang Wenhai had a good impression of him. Compared with the kid in front of him, those little devils in his relatives should be remade.

Chu Ci was also quite surprised. It seemed that Chu Xiaoyuan had learned a lot without knowing it.

Zhang Wenhai led the two into the mansion to settle down.After lunch, Chu Ci took Chu Xiaoyuan to the street and prepared all the things needed for the ceremony.

Shuxiu is a piece of meat, in addition to Shuxiu, it also needs celery, lotus seeds, red beans, dates and longan.It means good work and hard work, painstaking education, good luck, early high school, and complete merit.

At this time, there was only one disciple sitting outside the Mengtong Hall of the County School, and Chu Ci led Chu Xiaoyuan over there, saying that he wanted to apply for Meng Xue.The doorman raised his eyes casually, and found that the two were dressed like this, so he said: "The first two days are over, please come early next February."

Chu Ci smiled: "Didn't the two people in front come to sign up? Why is it over?" He pointed to the backs of the two figures in front, and they were walking towards the husband's residence under the leadership of another doorman.

"He was greeted by Master Kong Shan, so naturally he can come later. Scholar, I advise you to go back first and come back early next year."

"What did Mr. Kong Shan say? I wonder if what Mr. Qin said is useful?" Chu Ci said.

"Mr. Qin?" The student read a sentence, and then suddenly realized that he remembered the golden signboard of the county school.

"Why didn't you say it earlier? The villain will take you in right away." The doorman immediately smiled and was eager to help them carry their things.

Chu Ci declined, and he and Chu Xiaoyuan walked in behind the man.

There are a total of four gentlemen in the Mengtong House, and the family the doorman took them to is named Shen.Before them, the person who brought the child was already apprenticed.

The fleshy little bun listened to the teacher's lecture with a serious face, and the bun on his head looked very cute because of the nodding movements.

When his eyes shifted to the adult beside him, Chu Ci secretly sighed, this is too coincidental.The one standing on the left side of the child is that Mr. Xu.
