Teacher of the World (8)

When Ji Changze was dragged out by two children who were complaining while walking, Zhao Meiniang had already been scared away.

Even if he didn't see the person, he could guess who it was just now by listening to the description of the two children.

He smiled, still with a gentle smile: "The person you are talking about may be your master's cousin. She has always been like this. Don't worry about it. Continue to clean the bow and arrow."

Master's cousin?

The two clever children looked at each other.

When they were in the capital, they had many good friends. Although they were men, they also loved gossip. Sometimes when they gathered together, they couldn't help but talk about what happened in someone's family. There was rarely peace in the backyard of a powerful family. Either the illegitimate son wanted to compete with the legitimate son, or the head of the family favored his wife and killed his concubine.

Anyway, if you really want to listen, you can't finish listening for three days and three nights.

Zhang Yuanwen and Zhang Yuanwu listened to a lot of excitement and learned a lot of things.

For example, relatives are not always happy, there are also rivalries. For example, sisters will compete and hate each other, not to mention cousins.

The two of them figured it out, and immediately put a "vicious female supporting role" stamp on Zhao Meiniang's head.

No wonder they looked at her with a wrong look in their eyes. The master's wife was her cousin, so the teacher should be her cousin's husband, but she didn't know the etiquette at all and actually called the teacher by his full name.

The two of them whispered to each other and agreed that if this person dared to come to them again next time, they would definitely scare her.

Zhao Meiniang tried to come a few more times afterwards, trying to explain that she just wanted to say bad things about Ji Changze, and she definitely didn't mean to scold them.

However, it doesn't mean that she can succeed as long as she tries.

Zhang Yuanwen and Zhang Yuanwu now really regard Ji Changze as their teacher, their own teacher, how can they allow an outsider to complain.

They didn't do anything too extreme. They just dug up an earthworm. When Zhao Meiniang came to them again and treated them like three-year-old children, saying bad things about their teacher, they threw this fat earthworm at her.

"Ah!!!!"

Although Zhao Meiniang was a country girl, her family made a small fortune by taking away Zhao Yue's family's property when she was a child. She was favored at home and basically didn't go to the fields. She didn't think it was a big deal to see the earthworm. She was so scared that she kept screaming.

The scream was so miserable that it quickly attracted the attention of the people around.

Everyone was very concerned about the two little nobles. After finding out that the sound came from this side, they hurried over and asked what happened.

"They, they threw this at me!!"

Zhao Meiniang's eyes were red. Seeing someone coming, she subconsciously put on her most pitiful posture, hoping to make people stand on her side like before.

If Zhang Yuanwen and Zhang Yuanwu had just come to the village, even if she didn't do this, others would definitely believe that it was these two naughty young masters who did it. After all, they were just children? Everyone has a naughty time. Even when they were young, they liked to play tricks on little girls like this.

But things are different now.

Zhao Meiniang, the little white flower, after experiencing Ji Changze's devil education, Zhang Yuanwen and Zhang Yuanwu are even whiter than her.

The two stood up immediately, with neither servile nor arrogant expressions: "We didn't bully her."

"Yes, my brother and I were just reciting the book, and she suddenly ran over and said some strange things, saying that the teacher was not a good person, and asked us not to believe him, and asked us to tell grandpa that the teacher bullied us and said bad things about the teacher's wife."

Zhang Yuanwu's voice was crisp, and before Zhao Meiniang had time to react, his little mouth said a series of words: "My brother and I were so angry that we didn't want to listen to her, so we let her go. Who knew that she suddenly shouted so loudly that I almost lost my book in my hand."

His voice was crisp and tender, but very steady. He finished speaking in an orderly manner, and there was no anger on his face. Everyone who saw him couldn't help but admire him in their hearts that he was worthy of being the grandson of an official.

Except for the first day when they came to their village, these two little nobles were a little arrogant. After that, they have always been polite (changed by Ji Changze). Usually, they are not seen running around like the children in the village, but reading books whenever they have nothing to do (Ji Changze assigned too many homework and had no time to play at all).

They are well-mannered and clean. With the grandfather Zhang behind them, they are still very polite to ordinary villagers.

Who can not like such children.

No one really believes that they deliberately bullied Zhao Meiniang.

Then they sighed that Zhao Meiniang really refused to give up.

She stole things from Zhao Yue's mother's family at the beginning. I didn't expect that now Ji Changze and Zhao Yue's mother are married, she is still so determined to discredit the couple.

Her reputation is bad to begin with. Now these two children expose her cheating Mr. Ji's students in front of so many people. How can she get married in the future?

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Zhao Meiniang looked at Zhang Yuanwu in disbelief. She couldn't believe that such a nine-year-old child could lie without changing her expression.

She had been beaten up since she was a child, and she relied on her superb acting skills to beat her peers all the way. She was a little confused for a moment.

"No, how can you lie at such a young age? It was you who threw this disgusting bug on me just now."

There was a trace of depression on Zhang Yuanwu's fair and tender face, and he stretched out his hand and handed it to everyone: "You said we were throwing earthworms at you, but the earthworms are in the soil. Look at my hands. They are clean, not even a trace of dust." No."

Zhang Yuanwen also nodded in agreement and also extended his hands.

The brothers' hands were all white and spotless, and they really didn't look like they had just taken earthworms. Now, no one believed Zhao Meiniang at all.

Zhao Meiniang almost vomited blood out of breath.

The truth was right in front of her, but she couldn't fight against the two children. There were so many people standing here, but no one believed her.

Someone else advised her: "Meiniang, there are so many people in Mr. Ji's school now. You are talking about you. After all, he is also your cousin-in-law. What can you do if you can't get along with him? Mr. Ji has a good heart and is easy to talk to. If you put down your airs, be kind to him." If I apologize, maybe Mr. Ji will stop pursuing it, and you can still live as relatives in the future. "

With a brother-in-law like Yuki Nagasawa, it would be too easy for Zhao Meiniang to get married as long as the relationship was not too cold.

It's a pity that the other party had good intentions, but Zhao Meiniang was so angry that she could only breathe heavily.

Why should she apologize? !

It was obviously framed by Ji Changze and these two children. Fortunately, she thought at first that they had seen through Ji Changze's true nature just like herself. She didn't expect that they were the same as Ji Changze.

She breathed hard, trying to calm herself down.

No, she couldn't be rude to these two dead children in public.

Otherwise, if she offends Mr. Zhang, will she still have a good life in the future?

God knows how hard Zhao Meiniang worked to squeeze out a smile on her face: "Yes, maybe I saw it wrong. Don't take it off, two young nobles."

"Don't be surprised, as long as you don't come to us and say bad things about our teacher in the future."

Zhao Meiniang; "..."

She listened to the whispers of the villagers in her ears and the eyes on her, her expression became more and more awkward and stiff, and she responded dryly.

Seeing that she "knew she was wrong", the two little nobles didn't look like they were going to let go, so the others slowly dispersed and did their own thing.

So, there were only three people left in this place.

Zhao Meiniang was trying to take a deep breath when she saw Zhang Yuanwen slowly taking out a handkerchief from his arms, which was stained with earthworm soil. She looked over with her eyes wide open. Such a big child was smiling quite proudly. : "Fortunately, I brought a handkerchief, otherwise my hands would have been dirty."

Zhao Meiniang: "..."

She watched helplessly as the two children, who had deceived her at a young age, happily held hands and trotted away with their books.

She was left standing alone in the sun.

Confused, confused, still confused.

No, these two children have become sperms, right? ! !

Ji Changze only found out about this incident after the fact. He didn't say anything on the surface, and then quietly gave the two children a lot of moral education lessons.

The main point is that it is good to have the ability to protect yourself, but you must remember that when it is not necessary, it is better to deceive someone for the purpose of counterattack or self-protection. If the other party has no evil intentions or is an innocent person, then absolutely You cannot dig a hole and bury people in it.

He has recently felt that his life has been quite fulfilling. These two students are really smart and very resistant to pressure. As long as the praise is in place, they can study happily no matter how hard they study.

It can be seen that this child had such a miserable childhood, otherwise he would not be so lacking in praise.

Ji Changze taught them the Six Arts of a Gentleman in various ways, the etiquette of eating, clothing, housing and transportation, how to walk and sit, as well as the ways of the world, and stories about court disputes.

This is much more interesting than raising flowers and plants. These two children were raised innocently. With a piece of blank paper, Ji Changze could draw a few strokes on it, and they could grow according to his own ideas.

Of course, as Ji Changze's students, the two of them had made rapid breakthroughs in terms of IQ.

After all, he has a strong learning ability, which can be seen from the fact that they teamed up to trick Zhao Meiniang.

All of them were based on the methods Ji Nagaze taught them when they first arrived.

When the three months were up, the two children went back to their hometown to stay for a day, and then started clamoring to come back and continue their studies.

This made Mr. Zhang extremely happy.

He has always been chasing his two grandsons to force them to learn. If he chases him loosely, he will run away, but if he chases him tightly, the two children will not cooperate.

As a result, now, he said that he should take a rest after working hard for three months. The two children were not happy. They were anxious about who didn't let them learn. The two of them read together until the evening, and then went to pick up all the money the next day. Go find their teacher.

Master Zhang is pleased.

So proud.

He had a smooth life, but when he got old, he fell into trouble with his two grandsons. For this reason, he regretted countless times why he didn't start educating these two children when they were young.

When old friends get together and people praise their sons and grandsons in a subtle and subtle way, he can't even hold in his farts.

The proud Mr. Zhang happily wrote the letter after his two grandsons left.

Written to his friends in the capital.

Tell them: My good friend, I am really troubled recently. The reason is that my two grandchildren are here. You know how worried I was about their lack of progress in the past. But now it is different. I found a talented hermit to teach them. This talent is really amazing. These two naughty monkeys have changed their appearance after living with their teacher for only three months. They are no longer desperate and no longer want to escape from studying. They love studying more than each other.

They stayed for only one day after returning. They kept reading books and were fascinated. The next day, they disliked that there was no reading atmosphere in our house and hurried back to their teacher. I was happy but also worried. After all, these two children are still young. I am worried that they are so serious about studying and obsessed with studying. Usually, they are unwilling to rest and play except for the rest time stipulated by their teacher. They are so boring at such a young age. What will happen when they grow up?

Your dear friend

After writing three letters in a row, which were apparently worried and complaining, but were actually full of bragging, Mr. Zhang was happy.

Of course, he did not forget to write to his other friends who were also worried about their children and grandchildren, asking them to come quickly to see if they could send the children to Mr. Ji. At that time, even if they had to sacrifice their old face to beg him to accept them, this would be a major event that could change the child's life.

Of course, although it was a well-intentioned suggestion, it did not prevent Mr. Zhang from showing off comfortably.

It was three months later when the letter was sent to the capital. After reading it, the adults who received the letter felt sour.

Is this guy so proud?

Isn't it just that the grandson is sensible? Their grandsons have been sensible since childhood, and they didn't say anything.

In fact, although Mr. Zhang was telling the truth, these adults didn't believe it in their hearts, or they thought that Mr. Zhang was exaggerating.

After all, they have been friends for many years, and they know exactly what kind of temperament the other party's grandson is. Children of this age are inherently naughty, and Yuan Wen and Yuan Wu have rich experience in struggle and are very arrogant. What kind of hermit can make them study obediently?

Moreover, they only studied for a short three months, which was not enough to lay a foundation. How come the old friends said that they were completely transformed?

Unreliable, quite unreliable.

So, the conclusion is that Mr. Zhang either wanted to brag too much, or he had a filter of "my grandson is so good". The two children were just a little bit sensible, which made him so happy.

If Mr. Zhang knew what these old friends were thinking, he would definitely complain.

What do you mean by "he has a filter"? What he said is obviously the truth.

The two children really took only three months to be completely transformed. Even if they are still a little bit childish inside, they can at least maintain their composure on the surface.

In the capital, not only several adults received the letter, but also the parents of Zhang Yuanwen and Zhang Yuanwu.

When the two opened the letter and read the content, their reaction was the same as those adults, and they didn't believe it.

Don't they know what kind of virtue their sons are?

Looking at the lines clearly written on it about how Yuanwen and Yuanwu love learning, the two of them didn't believe it even more.

Compared to the two children's initiative to learn, they prefer their father to stand behind them with a stick and force them to learn.

Madam Zhang's eyes turned red as she watched, and she took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, choking and saying: "If Yuan Wen and Yuan Wu are really like this, it must be because they have suffered a lot, otherwise they are just children, it's good enough not to think about playing, how could they think about studying all the time."

Little Master Zhang actually thought so, but seeing his wife crying, he naturally couldn't add fuel to the fire, so he could only quickly persuade: "Madam, don't think too much, it's a good thing for these two children to know how to make progress, why are you crying?"

"Everyone in the world hopes that their children will be as promising as possible, and I am naturally the same, but when I think of Yuan Wen and Yuan Wu's parents not being around at such a young age, and having to study with a teacher in the deep mountains and old forests, a short They have been like this for three months, so they must have suffered a lot, and I don't know how many times they have been punished by the teacher. "

Mrs. Zhang's tears grew more and more as she spoke, and her heart was full of heartache; "If they really suffer, I would rather they live a mediocre life, as long as they are safe."

"Men should suffer more, otherwise they will always be smooth sailing. Now you and I are still here to protect him, but when we are a hundred years old, who will protect them? They should stand up on their own." Little Master Zhang said a few words, and seeing that the lady was still crying, he comforted her: "Don't think too much, father loves Yuan Wen and Yuan Wu as much as you and me, with father around, they won't suffer much."

But Mrs. Zhang didn't listen to these comforts at all.

Father loves the two children, but didn't the letter also say that? The two children were sent to the village where Mr. Ji lived.

I can't go home once in three months, so naturally, father can't take care of them.

Still live in the village.

In her imagination, she immediately imagined her two sons living a hard life, hugging each other for warmth, crying at night because they missed home, and pitifully calling for their mother.

Suddenly, her tears flowed even harder.

My sons, you have suffered a lot.

At this moment, in a small mountain village far away, the two brothers sat comfortably by the stove, their mouths drooling with greed, and asked every now and then; "Is the teacher okay? Is he okay?"

"Can I eat? Is it okay?"

"It smells so good. Teacher, it must be ripe. Let's eat it quickly without waiting."

"If it doesn't work, I'll drink some soup first."

Old God Ji Changze sat across from them. Seeing the two students who had been trying to maintain a stable persona, he almost fished it out with his hands, and then raised his eyes: "Why are you in a hurry? Wait, wait for your junior wife to come. Eat later.”

Zhang Yuanwen's saliva was drooling, and he smiled at the teacher and said, "Teacher, I'm really greedy, and I don't want to be in a hurry. But sitting here, this fragrance keeps coming into my nose, and I really feel sick." Can’t stop.”

"Yes, teacher, my brother ate an extra egg this morning, but I only ate one egg. I'm already hungry, so let me eat first."

Ji Changze said no.

With an indifferent expression, he raised his eyes and looked at his two students. As he moved, his unyielding attitude no matter what happened suddenly came out.

"What did my teacher teach you? To behave in the world, you need to be calm and calm. No matter how big the temptation is in front of you, you must stay steady and not show the slightest clue on your face, otherwise When you enter the court in the future, you can express whatever is on your mind, and your bones will be chewed clean."

"Sit up straight, don't move around, stop the green light in your eyes, it's just hot pot, why are you so greedy?"

Ji Changze severely criticized his two students: "Even if you don't mention this, it is polite to wait until everyone is here before starting to eat. Besides, it is your teacher's wife who is waiting. She is so good to you. What's wrong with her while you wait?" He's so impatient, it's really outrageous to see."

He lightly dusted his sleeves very calmly: "Don't you think that as a teacher, he is very calm and not in any hurry?"

Zhang Yuanwen and Zhang Yuanwu: "..."

"Teacher, you've already started eating, so of course you're not in a hurry."

Ji Changze didn't blush at all after being exposed. He calmly and naturally picked up a chopstick of small green vegetables and put it in his mouth. After chewing it for a few times and swallowing it contentedly, he wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and said slowly: "Who asked you two to I can't eat spicy food just like you, Master. If I eat a spicy hotpot myself, I don't have to wait for you."

That is to say, Ms. Liu always felt uncomfortable eating with these two young masters, so she simply went shopping in the town, bought some goods for the winter, and ate in the town, otherwise, they would have to wait for one more person.

Ji Changze was also evil-minded. He knew that the two children were greedy, so he deliberately ate slowly. He would pick up everything he ate slowly, put it in his mouth slowly, and then swallow it slowly.

From time to time, I even make comments.

"Tender and tender, it melts in your mouth."

“Freshly cooked, crispy and delicious.”

"It's tender and tastes great. Have another bite."

——Gudong.

Zhang Yuanwen and Zhang Yuanwu watched eagerly as their teacher took bite after bite, still using all kinds of adjectives that only they could not imagine and Ji Changze could not use to describe it.

Just when they couldn't help but protest, Zhao Yueniang finally arrived.

When she came in and found that Zhang Yuanwen and Zhang Yuanwu had not yet moved their chopsticks, she was stunned: "Why don't Yuan Wen and Yuan Wu eat?"

If Ji Changze is fake and has a good heart and is easy to talk to, then Zhao Yueniang is completely genuine.

In this family, it has always been Ji Changze who gave them the coldness of winter, and Zhao Yueniang who gave them the warmth of spring. Therefore, the two children relied on the master's wife very much. When she asked, they immediately complained: "Master's wife, let me tell you..."

Ji Changze took a piece of meat and said slowly: "These two children will wait until you come back to eat together."

Zhang Yuanwen and Zhang Yuanwu were stunned.

There is nothing wrong with this.

They were indeed asked to wait for the master's wife to come back before eating together.

But the more I think about it, the more awkward I feel.

After thinking for a second, they both figured it out at the same time.

The teacher is tricking them again! ! It was as if they took the initiative to wait for the master's wife.

Does the teacher still think that they are still so easy to trick and deceive when they first came here? !

They were so indignant that they opened their mouths to expose the teacher's conspiracy.

As a result, before she could open her mouth, she was hugged by Zhao Yueniang in surprise.

"Yuan Wen and Yuan Wu are so good? Why are you waiting for Master's wife to come back before eating? Come on, sit down and eat. You don't have to wait next time."

Seeing the surprise on Zhao Yueniang's face, because she thought they were waiting for the master's wife, she kept praising them for being smart, and the two children couldn't hold back the words with their open mouths.

Come on.

The master's wife is so happy, so she might as well admit it.

They secretly glanced at Ji Changze who was eating and murmured in their hearts.

The teacher is too shady.

It's like this every time.

Really, my own student still cheats, as if he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't cheat.

Of course, they don't know it at the moment, because they live in such dire straits at their teacher's house. Every day they can just fall into the pit, get up, fall in again, get up again, and repeat the cycle.

When they entered the audience in the future, because they were too good, countless people tried their best to pull them down, but no matter what means or methods those people used, the conspiracy took turns. These two people are obviously young, but they are like old foxes and they just don't fall for it.

And not only do they not fall into traps, their patience and endurance are actually much stronger than ordinary people. No matter how big things happen, they never relax in facial management. Even if the sky falls, the two of them can still remain so stable and calm. to deal with it.

I'm afraid no one will ever know that the two adults of the Zhang family are able to maintain their composure forever because they have learned from waiting to eat hot pot over and over again.

Ji Changze continued to be his husband.

These two students are really easy to use. Now he has completely delegated the power to teach the villagers to them. Not only can they cultivate their patience and give them a chance to observe various aspects of life, but most importantly, Ji Changze has obtained There is no need to work for fame.

These two students are really lucky.

Because when the dynasty was newly established, it was when talents were needed. In order to recruit talents, the emperor made special exceptions. Instead of taking the exam every three years, it was once a year.

Among them, the two time periods of the scholar examination and the examiner examination are very long. If you are particularly confident in yourself, you can go directly to the examiner examination after passing the scholar examination.

Of course, no one does this. After all, this requires the ability to pass exams, and every exam is a big difficulty for literati. After taking a half-year break, how can you still have the energy to prepare for the next exam?

But for Ji Changze's two students, this is a good opportunity.

Ji Changze started his devil education again.

Fortunately, these two children are really smart, and they are really quite resistant. No, they are anti -learning. As long as they boast them, they are more addicted than anyone else, and they are completely like learning.

So, at the beginning of the second year, Ji Changze dismissed two of his students.

When he was admitted to Tongsheng, Mr. Zhang was already full of surprises.

When he was admitted as a scholar, he was so excited that he wished he could have an old age disco.

When the news came that his two grandsons had both passed the examination, Mr. Zhang's mind went blank for three minutes.

He had always been strong and strong, but his hands were shaking now. The hand holding the teacup was shaking, and he almost dropped the teacup.

"Are you telling the truth? Yuan Wen and Yuan Wu were all admitted to the Juren Examination?"

The servant was also happy and filled with a sense of unreality, and his voice was floating: "It's the real master! It's so real when I see it. Our young master Sun has really passed the exam, and his ranking is very reliable." forward!!"

He was also floating. Last year, Master Sun was playing with crickets all over the house.

I didn't know it at that time, but Mr. Ji actually used less than a year's effort to help the two young masters jump directly from the first level of white body to the highest level.

This is a real exam! ! !

The next step is to become a Jinshi. If you pass the imperial examination and pass the imperial examination to be elected officials, their two young masters are only ten years old, but they have already walked a path that many people in their forties and fifties cannot follow.

"It's really, really a case of lifting people..."

Mr. Zhang's hands were shaking so much, but he didn't forget what he should do now; "Quick, quick, let the carriage arrive at the door of the house!!"

The servant asked: "Sir, are we going to see Master Sun?"

"What are you looking at, Master Sun!! Of course I'm going to thank Mr. Ji!!!"

Mr. Zhang’s voice was trembling when he spoke.

In such a short period of time, he could teach his two naughty grandchildren to be successful.

Mr. Ji is not only of noble character, he is also very good at teaching students!

Such a person is willing to live in such a small mountain village.

How else can I say that people are indifferent to fame and fortune.

This is the real master! ! !

Not to mention how Ji Changze welcomed the excited Mr. Zhang, in the capital, the news that the two children of the Zhang family had passed the examination in one year was slowly received.

Accompanied by their previous lack of knowledge, Master Zhang found a hermit living in the mountains and sent the two children there to teach them.

As a result, after one year of teaching, he went from being a white boy to a ten-year-old scholar.

The whole capital was in a sensation! !
