Chapter 197: Puzzle Clearing

When Pearl saw the porridge, she couldn't walk anymore and looked at it with a blank eye. Wei Yingluo is actually very hungry, yesterday they came out in a hurry, they didn't eat dinner, there were steamed buns in the baggage, but they were already frozen hard, and they were awkward to touch, let alone bite, and it was estimated that their teeth would have to jump.

But she is different from pearls, pearls are born hard, and eating and dressing is her greatest pursuit. Wei Yingluo is not like this, she has read books, knows how to be polite and honest, and her self-esteem makes her unable to do anything to ask for something to eat.

She thought she could do it.

Last night when she said it was a big deal to be a beggar, she really thought that. But at this moment, looking at the porridge in the pot, she really couldn't open her mouth.

Wei Yingluo went to pull Pearl's hand and wanted to take her away. I didn't pull it, because Pearl's eyes were already straight, and I couldn't stop swallowing.

Watching the fire next to him was a bricklayer about fifty years old, and among this group of craftsmen, he was a small foreman, surnamed Dong, and everyone called him 'Lao Dong'. He looked up at the dress of the two girls in front of him, and it was obvious that the young lady was with a maid. It stands to reason that it doesn't look like you can't afford to eat. But what's the matter with this girl, why is she drooling?

This bricklayer was also of a bitter origin, and knew what it was like to be hungry. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke: "Two girls, if you don't dislike it, drink a bowl?" ”

"Really?" Hearing this, Pearl moved, shook off Wei Yingluo's hand, leaned over, took the bamboo spoon from Lao Dong's hand like a cook, and said, "Uncle, I won't eat your porridge for nothing, I'll help you." I'm the best at making porridge, so it's no problem to leave it to me, you can rest. ”

Lao Dong couldn't compete with her, so he had to let her work. Wei Yingluo looked at Pearl with such a hopeless appearance, and she was so angry that tears were about to fall. She wanted to leave, but when she left the Wei Mansion, she was close to Pearl, and she didn't know what to do without Pearl.

But if she wants to be like Pearl, working by the pot and waiting for a sip of porridge, she still can't save face.

It's not to go, it's not to stay, Wei Yingluo just stood about five meters away from the pearl, looking at her with blank eyes. When the other bricklayers saw this situation, they couldn't help but point at her, which was nothing more than guessing where this was the young lady, and they were hungry and put up a shelf. Although the sound was not loud, but the distance was so close, Wei Yingluo could still hear half a sentence, and her face turned red with shame.

After a while, the porridge was ready. Pearl has done the same thing, the same place, the same work, but the object has changed. In the past, it was to distribute porridge to beggars, but now it is the craftsmen who distribute porridge. Pearl porridge does have its own way, and the heat is well controlled, at least much stronger than Lao Dong. And she has a cheerful personality and is willing to work, and her self-cooked personality soon won the love of craftsmen.

Wei Yingluo looked at it from afar, felt inferior for no reason, and lowered her head.

She originally thought that when she left home and went out, the pearl would be a burden to her. Now I know that it turns out that she is the burden, but the pearl, and she can live well away from home.

"Miss," he was thinking, when he suddenly heard the voice of the pearl. Wei Yingluo looked up and saw Pearl holding a crockpot with porridge inside. She handed over a spoon and said with a smile: "Miss, this is the leftover porridge, you eat it first, and I will eat the rest." ”

It turns out that the pearl is for me!

Wei Yingluo's tears suddenly couldn't be controlled, and they crackled. Pearl was terrified, she grew up with Wei Yingluo since she was a child, and taking care of Wei Yingluo has become her habit. Let her eat first, Pearl didn't feel anything, and she didn't understand why Wei Yingluo was crying.

She hurriedly put the crockpot on the ground, rolled up her sleeves to help Wei Yingluo wipe her tears, and said, "Miss is homesick, if you are homesick, let's go back." If the lord punishes you, the pearl will bear it for you. ”

Wei Yingluo shook her head and said, "Pearl, you can't go back." But...... I have a way to keep you from suffering this. Wait a minute, let's go. ”

Pearl blinked her eyes and said confusedly, "Where are we going?" ”

"You'll find out later." Wei Yingluo returned the spoon to Pearl and said, "You eat first, I'm not hungry." ”

"Miss......"

"You eat first!"

"Oh......" Pearl knew Wei Yingluo's temper, and she was very stubborn, since she said she wouldn't eat it, she wouldn't eat it first. Pearl had no choice but to take the spoon and eat it in a crockpot.

Wei Yingluo squatted under the wall, stunned. Although just now, she had already made a decision to ask Li Mu for help. But if she really wants to do this, Wei Yingluo still has a hurdle in her heart.

got acquainted with Li Mu and saw his arrogance and literary brilliance. Later, in the corner of heaven and earth, I saw his light and thin Peony Lady, and Li Mu's image suddenly changed to a disciple. But it is this Dengzi who is willing to give Xiaoshi their steamed buns and is willing to help them. Such a loving person should be counted as a good person.

But he tied himself to a pillar again, and returned ...... He was so ashamed and said such presumptuous things, what did he mean?

Does he like me?

I went to him for help, will he help?

He is on the same page as his father, will his father accept him?

Which girl doesn't think about spring, but it's not time to think about spring. Wei Yingluo, a girl's heart, was opened to Li Mu when she didn't even notice it.

"It's coming, the newspaper has been bought!"

Suddenly, there was a shout, and a young craftsman ran into the crowd with a Datang Daily in his hand. He handed over the Datang Daily to the old Dong who had just watched the fire, and said eagerly: "Uncle, take a look, is there anything big going on today?" ”

"Yes, uncle, we are a bunch of people, as far as you know a few words, let's see what's going on today."

"Oh, I ...... I don't know a few words. Lao Dong took the newspaper over, and his confidence didn't seem very strong, but the others were illiterate, so he had no choice but to read it.

He unfolded the newspaper and exclaimed 'um' and 'ah' as he read it. The people next to him were very anxious, and the young craftsman who bought the newspaper was the most anxious, and couldn't help urging: "Uncle, yesterday you said that you could read and write, and I only went to buy it this morning." What did you say, what did the newspaper say? ”

Lao Dong smiled bitterly and said, "Let's be honest, I only know three words, which are my name......"

"How can you deceive people!" The young craftsman immediately quit, stretched out his hand and said, "Pay me back!" ”

"Hey...... Don't worry, I'll ask a newspaper reader to read it to you, okay? ”

When Wei Yingluo heard this, she got up and walked over, and said, "Uncle, I know how to read, or ...... I'll read it to you. ”

"You read us the newspaper?" Lao Dong looked at Wei Yingluo, seemed to hesitate, and said, "This young lady, although I don't know what is going on with you, I can see that you are not an ordinary person...... How dare we use you to read the newspaper! ”

Wei Yingluo smiled slightly and said, "Uncle, if you give us porridge to drink, I have to repay it." Come on, I'll read it to you. ”

"This ......" Lao Dong was still hesitating, and the others couldn't wait. They are illiterate, but they have the same thirst for information. When I was in the craftsman's workshop, someone in the Ministry of Industry read the newspaper at a given time, and now I come to work in Guangde Fang, and it is difficult to find someone who reads the newspaper. Finally caught one, how could he let it go, the young craftsman who came back from buying the newspaper snatched the newspaper from Lao Dong, held it with both hands and handed it to Wei Yingluo, with a sincere smile on his face: "Girl, please." You're a little tired, so let's see what the headlines say. ”

Wei Yingluo nodded and unfolded the newspaper. Suddenly, my eyes froze, and I saw that on the front page, it turned out to be an article.

The article is not surprising, Datang Daily has articles every day to inform about national events. But today's article is a policy theory, about the way of being a teacher, look at the signature, it turned out to be written by Li Mu!

He also knows how to be a teacher?

"Girl, read?"

"Oh......" Wei Yingluo hurriedly gathered her spirit and said: "Today's front page headline is an article about Zhuluhou. ”

"Hou Ye's article? Girl, read it! Hou Ye's article, you can read it carefully! ”

Hearing this, all the craftsmen were as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they suddenly became excited. Wei Yingluo looked at these people and wondered in her heart, could it be that Li Mu was so important in their hearts? And this is an article on the way of being a teacher, and after reading it, no one present seems to be able to understand it.

Wei Yingluo cleared her throat and said, "Listen, this article is about the way of being a teacher, and the name is "Shi Shuo". ”

"Ancient scholars must have teachers. Teacher, so preaching and receiving karma to solve doubts. If people are not born to know, how can they be free from confusion? If you are confused and do not follow the teacher, it is confused, and you will not be able to solve it. Before I was born, he heard the Tao before me, and I learned from him; After being born to me, he heard the Tao before me, and I learned from him. My teacher is also the way, and the husband knows that he was born in my year? Therefore, there is no noble or low, no long and no less, and the Tao exists, and the teacher also exists......"

The more Wei Yingluo thought about it, the more frightened she became, she thought that Li Mu's strategy as a teacher would be bullshit. But now that I have read the first paragraph, I can conclude from these few sentences. Li Muce's attainments are not weaker than his poems at all. It is actually reasonable, and there is not a word of nonsense piled up with rhetoric!

Unconsciously, Wei Yingluo was in a trance, and continued to read without raising her head: "Huh! The way of the teacher will not be passed on for a long time! The ...... of desire"

"Girl, wait a minute."

"Huh?" Wei Yingluo raised her head and saw that it was Lao Dong who spoke, her expression was stunned, and everyone else looked similar, so she couldn't help but wonder: "Uncle, what's wrong?" But can't you hear clearly? ”

"No, no, I can hear it clearly, we all heard it clearly, but it was ......" Lao Dong rubbed his hands and said a little embarrassed: "I heard it clearly, but we didn't understand it...... Girl, you are doing well, can you explain to you, what does Master Hou mean by this? ”

"Okay." Wei Yingluo smiled, went back and started from the beginning: "Ancient scholars must have teachers." Teacher, so preaching and receiving karma to solve doubts. The meaning of these two sentences is that in ancient times, people who studied must have teachers. A teacher is a person who comes to impart truth, teach learning, and answer difficult questions......"

Wei Yingluo explained like this, and the craftsmen understood. They all tilted their heads and listened to Wei Yingluo, and they didn't dare to breathe, and they even forgot to go to work.
