Chapter Seventy-One: A Visit to the Teacher
"Who are you looking for?" shouted a middle-aged man wearing a hat from afar.
Wen Huai searched for it, it was a man who carried water to water the ground, and the water under his feet was sprinkled because of him.
"I'm a freshman, come and visit my mentor!" he shouted in the man's direction.
"It's a freshman...... It's a freshman, let's see who it is. The man urged the farmer to claim his students.
"Not my ......"
"Nor my ......"
The men looked at each other, innocent and overwhelmed. It seems that Wen Huai is disturbing their quiet farming.
"How can it be...... You're taking a good look!" I heard the man's voice from afar.
"Not mine anyway!"
"I don't have this freshman either!"
"Oh! The man couldn't figure out the situation either, and said in the direction of Wen Huai, "Classmate, the tutors of our academy are all here, and there is no tutor of yours, are you making a mistake?"
Wen Huai smiled bitterly, wondering in his heart, the school treatment is not good, why did they all come to farm.
"That's right, my teacher is the dean here!" Wen Huai continued to shout.
As soon as the words fell, these tutors neatly put down the farm tools in their hands and looked at them together. There are five flavors in this look, there is sadness, unwillingness, joy, and incomprehension.
Wen Huai was stunned and asked, "Then the tutors, have you seen the dean?"
No one replied for a long time, and finally the man who carried the water reacted and hurriedly said, "Go! I'll take you to him." ”
He put down the burden on his shoulders, patted the soil on his body, and hurried through the field, stepping on many seedlings along the way.
"You're here, go, I'll take you to him. The man stopped in front of Wen Huai.
"Thank you, mentor. Wen Huai smiled and bowed his head to thank him.
The man nodded with satisfaction, and praised Wen Huai's understanding of etiquette.
Wen Huai is still very polite, but he has been drifting outside for too long, and he doesn't need these rules and etiquette when wandering and begging. Begging is a big gift, and the number of gifts is not the same thing.
The man led him on a muddy dirt road, and in a short period of effort, a thick layer of mud accumulated on the soles of his shoes.
The man also accosted him, "Our academy is more difficult. ”
Wen Huai nodded silently, but he said, "In this way, there is an atmosphere of learning, and a difficult environment can hone people's will, and we are still strengthened formation masters, so we must know how to work hard." ”
When the man heard this, his eyes were hot, and he said, "I didn't expect to have this consciousness at such a young age!
"Then why is our academy all vegetable fields?" Wen Huai looked around, and looked green.
"No, it's not just the vegetable patch, you see there's a pomegranate tree over there! ”
"Uh...... I'm asking, how did our college tutor start farming?"
The man's eyes darkened, he sighed, and said, "Alas...... Our academy was actually quite magnificent at the beginning, and it was not so bad that it would become like this. ”
"Oh?"
"You're a freshman, you don't know anything. There is a rule in our Kasai school, that is, each college can compete in the training ground, and you can place bets. This is where personal grievances are resolved. The most headache is the competition between the colleges, the lowest bet in this is also a year's teaching grant, our college has almost never won, and has lost everything that can be lost. ”
"Then we don't have to gamble. ”
The man shook his head, "This is also a rule that must be followed by each academy, and besides, there will be excellent students in our academy, and there is also hope for victory." ”
"Isn't it going to even be paved on the ground?"
The man's face flushed and coughed lightly, "It's nothing." ”
"That's nothing! How much did the academy lose?"
The man held out a finger and said, "I have lost everything I can lose, and I still owe ten years in arrears." ”
"Our college teachers don't know how to grow vegetables, so they take them out to make up for the arrears, right?"
"That's not it, it's earning your own salary. ”
Wen Huai stopped, he regretted it a little.
"Don't be afraid, isn't it you this year, you are the first place, go out and compete a few more, and live a rich life easily. This year's academy bet, you can also make a little bit of a return for the academy. ”
"I'm a freshman, do I want to play in my first year?"
"Our tutors have all seen your exams, and they are not afraid to deal with all the old students. Besides, the annual competition is also scheduled late, and the dean will almost improve your strength by then. I hope you can bring glory to the academy this year, and it is better to win back some funds and renovate the classrooms of the academy!"
The man in front of him has already fantasized about what he will do when he comes back with the money he won.
Just as the two were chatting, the shadow of the building appeared in Wen Huai's field of vision. It was the kind of dilapidated old building, and from his position, there were still weeds growing in the cracks on the roof of the old building, and the coating on the walls was peeling off.
"In front of it is one of the teaching buildings of our college, and the dean is also in it. The man pointed to the dilapidated building that Wen Huai saw.
The two of them also quickened their pace, and soon entered the building, the environment inside was quite clean, and occasionally students could be seen busy. The students here may be the reinforcement type, and they are all burly and walk with a vigorous attitude.
When they saw the man beside Wen Huai, they all called out respectfully, Director. The man also nodded his head one by one.
The two went straight up to the third floor, which was almost devoid of students, and they only met a few hurried instructors along the way.
Eventually, the two stopped at the door of one of the rooms.
"This is the dean's room, remember. The man finished and knocked on the door.
A not-so-young voice came from inside, "Come in!"
The man pushed open the door, and there was a 'creaking' sound at the door, and it seemed that even the door frame would break if he exerted a little force.
"Dean, Wen Huai is here to visit you!" the man said impatiently.
"Oh, he's coming. The dean's voice was like a question, and then a surprise.
"Teacher!" Wen Huai bent down to salute, looking humble and well-behaved.
"Okay, okay, come in!" The dean strode to his side, grabbed Wen Huai's shoulders with trembling hands, and led him into the room.
Wen Huai slowly got up and looked at the dean's surprised and happy eyes.
"Come on, come here!" the dean took his arm and walked towards his recliner. "Director, why are you still stunned? Let's go!" the dean ordered the eviction.
The director pursed his lips with a look of grievance, "Then Dean, I'll go first!"
