Chapter Ninety-Six: Talking

Li Weicai stopped and slightly observed Xia Muhan's reaction, Xia Muhan held his breath and listened carefully, which greatly pleased him, and continued after a pause: "Brother Xia, you don't know. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info brother my suffering, Li Jin, this kid, is okay to study, and was admitted to Xiucai last year. ”

"Brother Li, this is a good thing, what are you worried about, you should be happy! The child was admitted to Xiucai, and Brother Li was really blessed. Xia Muhan interrupted Le and said.

The party named Li Jin had red cheeks and lowered his head, as if he was a little shy and embarrassed.

"Hey, it's a good thing to be admitted, but we, who are fathers, have to worry about their exams. You know, where are there any big academies in a small place like Wusu Town. The master in the county town is also a showman, and he himself has to continue the scientific examination, where can he take care of Jin'er. The master recommended Jin'er to take the Wenshan Academy in Fucheng, saying that it was good, and there were many people who could enter Beijing every time they took a scientific examination. Li Weicai continued to brew emotions and said.

"Wenshan Academy sounds good, just go to Jin'er, Brother Li has nothing to worry about." Xia Muhan said.

"Brother Xia, Wenshan Academy has a strict assessment, I'm not afraid that Jin Er won't be able to pass the test. If there is a way, I will admit that I can get in with a little more silver and gold. But where do people in a small place like ours have a way? Li Weicai continued.

Hearing this, Xia Muhan secretly thought, this Li Weicai should not want to follow his path. He's just a hunter now, and there's nothing he can do to help! To be honest, the mountain chief of Wenshan Academy, Xia Muhan really knew him, it was the emperor Wu Lao back then, but he really didn't want to visit rashly.

Xia Muhan hadn't thought that it would be so troublesome to go to the academy, when he was young, everyone entered the Royal Academy, and there were a few resigned Taifu teaching, and there was nothing fun about it.

"That little gold works harder, and he has been reading more books lately." Xia Muhan responded.

"Brother Xia, it's like this. This Wenshan Academy has a preferential selection rule, that is, the gentleman is particularly outstanding in the six arts, and the academy will give special recruitment. Brother Xia, I see that your archery and equestrian skills are good, and I want Jin'er to learn from you, and Yu'er and Man'er to learn together. Do you think that's okay? Li Weicai said.

"Brother Li, it's not that I don't want to teach, this kung fu will take a few years to learn before it can be slightly successful, you see that Xiaojin is going to Fucheng to take the exam in mid-March this year." A month has only scratched the surface. Instead, it delayed his time to study, isn't this putting the cart before the horse? However, Xiaoyu and Xiaoman practiced with me like Xiaotang, and when they arrived at the academy, they also achieved a little success. Xia Muhan said.

Li Weicai's face was slightly gloomy, and he asked without giving up, "Brother Xia, there is no quick way!" ”

"Brother Li, learning martial arts requires a certain amount of accumulation just like reading, and this is the same as now you let the small hall be trapped in the house to read for a month, and then ask him to give you a show before coming back." Xia Muhan explained.

Li Weicai thought that the eldest son was not good, the second son and the third son could learn, so they could help more, and after they learned something, it would be good to drive them to the mountains to hunt, so that it would be good for them to pay filial piety to his mother for him, and he would never worry about prey in the future.

"Then starting tomorrow, Yu'er and Man'er will also study with Brother Xia with Tang'er, which really bothers Brother Xia."

"Dad, I want to learn too!" Li Jin interjected in a hurry, and several of them excluded him. He also wants to learn a few tricks, so it's not easy for people to be bullied when he goes to other places.

"Xiao Jin is like this, now your main task is to be admitted to Wenshan Academy. After this month, as long as you want, Uncle Xia is always welcome here. The body is still weaker, and it is better to exercise more. Xia Muhan said strongly before Li Weicai spoke.

Seeing that Li Weicai wanted to say something, Xia Muhan said: "Why is the shopkeeper serving the food so slow this week, I was a little hungry after tossing it all morning." ”

"Look at me, I'm chatting. The chapel went down to urge. ”

"Yes, Dad."

After Su Shi finished the introduction, he got up and said goodbye. Although the atmosphere of the Great Qi Dynasty is relatively open, she and Li Yuanwai are not very familiar with each other, and it is always not good to hear when they eat at the same table, and it is inevitable that there will be some gossip.

Xia Cao watched her mother eat alone, looked very pitiful, and also got up and followed Su Shi. Su Shi and Xia Cao have already eaten in the back kitchen.

"Chef Li, hurry up, my dad is hungry." Li Tang entered the kitchen and urged.

"Oh, it's time to serve! It's probably your kid who is hungry! Chef Li said.

It's no wonder that Chef Li asked, the shopkeeper just now said that the master wants to serve the food slowly, and he was secretly plotted by this little ancestor last time. Last time, Li Tang lied to him that the master was going to entertain guests at night, so he prepared a table of dishes to prepare. There was a theft case in the last taste hall.

"This time it was really my father's urging, I didn't lie to you. You hurry up and serve the food. Li Tang said with a harmless face.

Li Tang looked back, and his eyes lit up when he saw Xia Cao and Su Shi saying to Chef Li, "Wait a minute, tell my father, I won't go up." I'll accompany my sister to dinner below. ”

Li Tang thought that his father and several brothers were talking to him about the master, and he didn't interject a few words at all after a meal. There are only Shi Niang and Xia Cao in the back kitchen, and the situation is different.

Xia Cao and Su Shi were eating happily in the back kitchen, and a voice sounded behind them: "Master, can I eat with you?" ”

"Well, as long as you don't dislike me and Xia Cao to eat first, just sit down." Su Shi said gently.

Xia Cao looked back, and Li Tang's guy was holding a bowl of full rice in his left hand and a pair of chopsticks in his right hand. It's all like this, is his mother embarrassed to refuse?

"If you don't dislike it, where will you dislike the teacher? It was an honor for me to have lunch with such a beautiful teacher. Li Tang sat down to eat.

Xia Cao bowed to that guy's eloquence, but couldn't help but sarcastically replied: "Isn't it an honor to eat with me?" ”

"No, I am fortunate to be able to eat with such a cute little grass sister."

"Virtue!" Xia Cao whispered.

Why didn't she find out how this person who was not treated by his father last time was so flamboyant, Xia Cao thought to herself. After listening to the conversation between Chef Li and Li Tang just now, Xia Cao found that she was wrong before, this guy was just not treated by his father, and his status in the family was really not low, otherwise he did that last time, he was not under house arrest, and he came to her house to buy steamed buns the next day.

"Cousin Li? Do you read a lot? Xia Cao thought of this, thinking that maybe she could take out one or two copies from this guy.

Reading? He doesn't look! But I can only answer like this, he is here to brush up his favorability, and he says that he doesn't like to read, right? Li Tang thought about how to answer better. (To be continued.) )
