Chapter VI
The results of the monthly examination at the end of April were posted, and there was not much change, except that the people at the bottom had to be picked out and beaten by the master this time, which made some students who fished for three days and dried their nets for two days a little panicked.
Shen Qingyun won B this time, and he improved a little bit, just to escape the list of punishments.
"Congratulations, it's just a little bit there. Fu Huaiyu glanced at Shen Qingyun's name, his expression seemed to be a little regretful, and he was a little gloating.
Shen Qingyun glanced at him, but his tone was not angry, "Ill-intentioned!"
Fu Huaiyu blinked weakly, and said with a dry smile: "What do you think, I'm taking a fluke for myself, fortunately, I'm also on the B this time, otherwise it would be miserable." ”
"The two of us are half a pound and eight taels, each other. The two looked at each other and smiled, and punched each other hard.
Although neither of them had to ask their parents, the master still asked all the second-class students to go back and write a review to reflect on their previous slackness in their studies.
If it was just a simple review, it would be fine, but this review required the elders to look at it and sign it, which immediately attracted a lot of wails.
"Dead, dead, dead, isn't progress working hard!!Why do you still have to write a review!!Why do you want to be seen by the elders!!!This is not my life!!"
Fu Huaiyu fell on the long table and cried wolf, Shen Qingyun endured him patiently for a while, and finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Write, write, write, I haven't had to accept my fate after howling for a long time!"
Fu Huaiyu said unwillingly: "I don't accept it......"
"If you don't accept it, you have to admit it, who made us bad, next time we work hard, and strive for the first class. ”
Fu Huaiyu sat up straight, "What you said is light, I have tried my best but I am still hovering in the second class, I feel that I am not born to study." ”
Shen Qingyun's hand running on the paper flowed smoothly, and his voice was calm: "In this world, except for talent and background, nothing is born immutable. If you can't get the desired result after trying hard, it will be difficult to settle at most. But if you just accept your fate because of a little difficulty, it means that you are an incompetent person!" He turned his head, looked at Fu Huaiyu seriously and asked, "Do you admit that you are incompetent?"
Shen Qingyun's voice was not loud, but several classmates around him heard his remarks, and they all raised their heads to look at them. Even Wei Shiran, who was sitting on Shen Qingyun's left, rarely turned his head to look at him, his eyes full of thought.
Fu Huaiyu had never heard Shen Qingyun speak in such a serious tone, and everyone was stunned for a while, forgetting how to organize the language, but subconsciously stumbled: "When, of course not!"
"Then don't complain, write well, and remember it for a long time. Shen Qingyun's tone immediately became much softer, as if the person who spoke with a cold face just now was not him.
Fu Huaiyu nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and said busily: "Oh, oh...... No, why do I think your tone is so similar to my own brother......"
Back at Shen's house, Shen Qingyun handed over the review that had been written to Shen Wenhan for review, and after Shen Wenhan read it, he called him to the study for questioning. As soon as I asked, it was an hour, and I missed the time for dinner, which caused Mrs. Shen to be dissatisfied for a while, and she lost her temper at the dinner table.
"This Shen Qingyun! It is already a great gift for him for a concubine to enter Jixian Academy, but he is so unmotivated! No matter who in our Shen family goes to the academy, he has never written a review, but he has set a precedent. You also want to give his father a look, isn't this a heart to make trouble for his father! You see that you can't even eat now, and you patronize him to teach him a lesson!"
Shen Qingyan hurriedly calmed her grandmother's emotions, "Grandmother, the second brother didn't mean it. He had already progressed, but who knew that the master would still ask for a review. ”
Old Madam Shen snorted coldly, "Progress? All the men of the Shen family are excellent, when will the price drop to the point that as long as you don't write a review, you will be satisfied, in the end, you are incompetent!"
Shen Qingyan didn't dare to defend Shen Qingyun anymore, and the other people at the other table all watched Shen Yuyin's reaction with the mentality of watching the excitement. Shen Yuyin wisely chose to shield herself, and it was none of my business if she didn't listen or watch.
Finally, Shen Qingyun was released from the study, and the time for dinner had already passed. Old Madam Shen originally wanted to starve him for a long memory, but Shen Wenhan waved his hand and said forget it, or sent someone to bring him food, and the angry Old Madam Shen scolded Shen Wenhan for being too spoiled by Shen Qingyun, and Shen Wenhan had to stay and comfort his mother to help Shen Qingyun share the excess anger.
Shen Qingyan stood aside and observed that his father's face was very calm, neither like he had lost his temper, nor did he have any worries, but he had a feeling that it was difficult to explain, did Shen Qingyun say something to his father in the study?
No matter how Shen Qingyan guessed, nothing happened tonight anyway, and it was still as dull as usual.
The next day, Shen Qingyun handed over the signed review to the master. Fu Huaiyu also handed it over, his face was tired, his eyes were swollen, and he kept pressing his eye sockets with his hands to relieve fatigue. "I was fined for copying ten texts last night, and if my brother hadn't helped me, you probably wouldn't have seen me today...... Trapped to death...... What about you?"
"I was lectured and then punished for not eating at night. Shen Qingyun said that he told a little lie against his will.
"You can still accept this, I'm really tired. Fu Huaiyu crouched in front of the long case, and the whole person was as decadent as he was, as if he could sleep to death in the next moment.
I have complained, but I still have to take the class seriously. After the master came in, Fu Huaiyu fought hard and opened his eyes wide to support his weak will.
Bai Yuxiu encouraged and supervised for a while, and then changed the topic and said: "It's about to be May mango planting, and there are many peasant children in the academy, and they were originally required to take a farm vacation according to the regulations......"
Many people below suddenly looked at him with bright eyes, and Bai Yuxiu then poured a bucket of cold water to extinguish their enthusiasm: "But only a few people are included, others should not have meaningless illusions, it is better to spend some time on studies if you want to take a vacation all day long." ”
"Oh......" There was a series of elongated sighs of disappointment below.
The corners of Bai Yuxiu's mouth curved slightly, and instantly tightened again.
Before class, Bai Yuxiu informed the students that he needed to leave the hospital for a few days recently and that Baili Fuzi would help him teach for the time being.
Baili Weixian is not the official master of Jixian Academy, when the Taixue Academy assigned the master to Luoyang, he only circled Bai Yuxiu's name, and he himself also wanted to go out to learn more about the seniors, so he went to ask for an alternative place, but he could not have an official name, and could only be regarded as a substitute master.
Baili Weixian is open-minded and playful by nature, because he comes from a family of generals, he has young blood flowing in his blood, he treats students enthusiastically but is not impatient, and he does not put on the teacher's shelf, whether as a friend or as a master, he is a very good person to get along with.
"You Bai Master has been entangled in affairs recently, and I will be the substitute teacher these days, if you have any problems that you don't understand or encounter things that are not easy to handle, you can come to Master and I to solve them, don't be shy. ”
After Baili Weixian finished introducing himself, his eyes fell on Shen Qingyun and smiled at him kindly.
Shen Qingyun had a few words with him on the third day of the third month of March, and he had met him a few times from afar. In the face of Baili Weixian's special delivery, he just pursed the corners of his mouth stiffly and pulled out an arc, but there was no smile in his eyes.
