Chapter 183: Unpleasant
"No, no, how could it be!" Li Yuqing hurriedly waved her hand and said, she was not stupid, she could find such a powerful master, she really couldn't find it with a lantern. "My school will be ready in the next few days, when is Master Xue going to go, let me know in advance, and I will send someone to pick you up when the time comes." ”
"This..."Xue Zhongxiang frowned and thought about something over there, and did not answer Li Yuqing's words.
Seeing Xue Zhongxiang like this, Li Yuqing's face was full of anxiety, and she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, Master Xue, is there something difficult?"
"Miss Li, I do have something to do, see if I can wait for June before I go over, but you don't have to worry, I can send someone over first and teach for a while"
"Why, what's the matter!" Li Yuqing asked with a frown.
"I'm not afraid of Miss Li's jokes when I say it, this class of students taught by Xue, there are a few smart ones in them, I plan to let them take the children's exam at the end of this month, if it's over, help them do more homework, and see if they can go to the Xiucai exam in June." ”
After listening to Xue Zhongxiang's matter, Li Yuqing suddenly realized, remembering Li Congwen, who he had first seen when he first came over, and heard Li Congwen talk about it.
"It turned out to be this matter, why didn't Master Xue say it earlier, I also know about this matter"
"Miss Li also knows, how is this possible" Xue Zhongxiang looked incredulous, looked at Li Yuqing and said. He never said anything about this to the outside world, only told the students who stayed, and even his younger brother Xue Zhonggui only knew that he was helping those students with their homework, and he didn't know what his intentions were.
"Master Xue, don't blame, I just heard from others. Don't forget, what I came here for the first time. Li Yuqing hurriedly explained.
After listening to Li Yuqing's words, Xue Zhongxiang reacted suddenly, thinking that when he saw Li Yuqing for the first time, she sent Li Congwen to apprentice. And among the few people he left behind this time, there is Li Congwen, a child, I think it was Li Yuqing just now, who went to see Li Congwen, and Li Congwen told her.
Thinking of this, Xue Zhongxiang looked at Li Yuqing and said, "Miss Li, did you tell you from that child?"
After listening to Xue Zhongxiang's words, Li Yuqing nodded subconsciously, reacted and hurriedly asked, "Is this a confidential matter from Master Xue, you can't tell outsiders, if it's true, don't worry, I will definitely keep my mouth shut and won't tell outsiders." ”
Looking at Li Yuqing's sworn look, Xue Zhongxiang shook his head funny, and said with a smile, "It's not a secret matter, it's just that these children have only been enrolled in school for less than a year, if others know, I will send them to take the test for children, and if they pass the test, it's just that, if they haven't taken the test, it's better not to talk about it."
"I see, but don't worry, I won't tell you. Li Yuqing said again and again
"It doesn't matter, Miss Li, don't care too much"
I talked to Xue Zhongxiang again, telling him when the school would be built, and if he was really willing to come, then Li Yuqing would wait for him.
Xue Zhongxiang, after listening to Li Yuqing's words, repeatedly promised that he would wait for Li Congwen and them, and after the Tongsheng and Xiucai exams, he would go over if he was fine, and he would not let Li Yuqing's school be empty during this time, and would find a gentleman in Hongru Academy to replace him first.
Li Yuqing saw Xue Zhongxiang's serious appearance, and promised to help him find a master to replace him first, Li Yuqing was very grateful, and wanted to talk to Xue Zhongxiang again, but was interrupted by the shopkeeper Yao beside him, it turned out that unconsciously, it was almost noon, and it was almost noon in the Fumanlou of the shopkeeper Yao, and there were still many things that he needed to be busy with.
Besides, Li Daniu and his wife are still waiting for her in Fumanlou, and they should be worried if they don't go back for such a long time, in order to show their gratitude to Xue Zhongxiang, Li Yuqing wants to invite him to Fumanlou for a meal. Helpless, Xue Zhongxiang excused himself with a lot of homework in the college, there was no way, Li Yuqing could only go back with Shopkeeper Yao first, thinking that he could only wait later, Xue Zhongxiang arrived in Lijia Village, and then set up a banquet to entertain him.
Sent Li Yuqing and them to the door, watched them get into the carriage, Xue Zhongxiang turned back, sat down in his study, called his entourage Lai Bao, briefly told Noble about the decision he had just made, and arranged for him to go to Lijia Village, first help him teach the children of Lijia Village homework for two months, and then come back when he was done.
Noble listened to Xue Zhongxiang's words, his eyes widened in surprise, and he said with a look of disbelief, "Master, have you told the second master about this?"
Xue Zhongxiang looked at Noble with a surprised face and said, "What to say to the second master, this is my own business"
"Master, how can this be said to be your own business! This Hongru Academy, but you built it with the second master? You are leaving, what should you do if you leave the second master?"
"Noble Treasure, what do I think, you don't know! Coming from the capital, I just want to live a peaceful and stable life, although the Hongru Academy is good, but what is the virtue of the people who come to school, you don't know, I have long been tired of this kind of life, now I just want to put my love on the landscape, and live a peaceful life in the farmhouse."
"The old man knows that you don't like this, but before you make a decision, why do you have to discuss it with the second master?" said Noble with a bitter face.
"What do you say to him, what students do I teach, what students does he teach, when I think of this, I get angry" was still talking to Noble with a pleasant face, but when he heard Noble say this, Xue Zhongxiang immediately said with a straight face.
Although Xue Zhongxiang is the eldest brother, he is not as knowledgeable as his younger brother Xue Zhonggui, he likes to play the piano and paint, and his younger brother likes to chant poems against him, so the students he teaches are all beginner children, pampered, and domineering.
His younger brother Xue Zhonggui, because of his good knowledge, taught Xiucai's level, and he didn't have to think about it to know that when he reached Xiucai's level, it was impossible to do it without some real materials, and people's words and deeds, and conversation, that was incomparable to the primary ones.
Seeing that his master was angry, Lai Bao knew that if he asked again, he must be the one who was scolded, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "Okay, master, don't be angry, I know what to do, wait for the girl to come and pick it up in a few days, I will go with them, so it's all right!"
Hearing Noble say this, Xue Zhongxiang suppressed the anger in his heart. said to Noble, "Go and call the second master, just say I have something to find him"
Hearing Xue Zhongxiang say this, Noble immediately retreated and went to find Xue Zhonggui.
Originally, Xue Zhonggui was sitting in the courtyard chanting poems and painting, and when he heard Noble calling him, he quickly put down the pen in his hand and called Noble to ask him, "Is there something wrong with Noble in such a hurry?"
Lai Bao, who came over, kept lowering his head and didn't dare to look, Xue Zhonggui, and said hesitantly, "The master is looking for you"
"My eldest brother is looking for me, can I say what's the matter" Xue Zhonggui's eldest brother Xue Zhongxiang, because of the matter of teaching students, he lost his temper with him every day, and he didn't speak for a few days, but today he asked Noble to come to him, Xue Zhonggui was very surprised.
Noble didn't dare to say much, so he could only shake his head and say, "I don't know, the big man only said to let the little one come to you"
"Is it in the study?"
"Hmm"
"Got it, I'll go now, you help me put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone I just used. Xue Zhonggui pointed to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table and said.
"The little one knows" (to be continued.) )
