On this day, it was midsummer, the scorching sun was like fire, the heat was unbearable, and a Taoist priest passed by Wen's house and wanted to come to the door to ask for a bowl of water to drink.

???????? Wen Xianzhong went out when he heard the sound, and saw a Taoist priest wearing a golden sorghum bun, wearing a clear silk Taoist shirt, with cloud shoes and socks under his feet, and a brocade silk ribbon tied around his waist. Busy with courtesy, please take a break in the hospital.

???????? The Taoist priest's name is Xi Yingzhen, the word Xinzhai, the Taoist number Yangzi, before the year of the crown to resign from the Taoist practice, so far has entered the Taoist door for more than 20 years, and now the successor will preside over and expand the Gusu White Crane Temple.

???????? Xi Yingzhen is diligent and studious, and has an insight into the true scriptures of Taoism, the Jiao Zhang Dan Method, and also runs through Confucianism and interpretation, and has outstanding performance in many aspects. And under the influence of Jingmingdao's "loyalty and filial piety", he is filial to his mother and treats the villagers quietly and friendly, so he is famous in the township.

???????? At this time, many neighborhood children outside the courtyard were gathering together to play, but Wen Xuan squatted in the courtyard and took a branch to practice calligraphy on the ground, and her sister Wen Xiao squatted on the side to watch. Xi Yingzhen was curious, so she lowered her body and asked, "Why don't you play with them?" ”

???????? Wen Xuan was born in a medical family, and there are all kinds of people who come and go on weekdays, so although he has just reached the age of bun, he is quite precocious and not afraid of people. Xiao Wenxuan glanced up at Xi Yingzhen, didn't reply, and continued to practice calligraphy with a pout, and her puffing cute appearance made people laugh.

???????? Seeing this, Wen Xianzhong apologized and said: "The dog is young, and he doesn't know how to count etiquette, so it's no wonder that the fairy is long." Then he explained: "Yesterday I shouted that I wanted to learn to write, so I taught him a few words, but today I woke up and forgot all about it, I said a few words to him, and this kid has been practicing here for a day." ”

???????? Between the words, Xi Yingzhen carefully observed Xiao Wenxuan's face, and was stunned: "This son's personality is so similar to me......

???????? Wen Xianzhong has met a lot of Taoist priests, but it is the first time he has seen an otherworldly person like Xi Yingzhen, and he was overjoyed when he heard this, thinking that he wanted to help his son read the divination, so he hurriedly informed Wen Xuan's birthday.

???????? Xi Yingzhen interrupted Wen Xianzhong and said: "The way of heaven is mysterious, and the poor way does not dare to speculate, but this son has a strong nature and a hard life, so I am afraid that he will encounter a lot of hardships in the future." ”

???????? Hearing that the young son's life was not good, Wen Xianzhong was anxious, "Immortal Chief, can you help him make up for it?" ”

????????“ The number of lives has its own destiny, how can mortals change it? He was so paranoid at an early age that he had to be guided into the right path. ”

????????“ Please also ask the immortal chief to speak clearly. ”

???????? Xi Yingzhen hesitated for a long time before he spoke: "Since he likes to read, let him read more." ”

???????? During the conversation between the two, Wen Xuan's mother Fei Shi had already been brought out, and Fei Shi was extremely flustered when he heard that his son's fate was not good, and begged: "The immortal chief has a fate with him, so it is better to take him as an apprentice and take him with you!" ”

???????? Xi Yingzhen said with a smile: "You don't have to be so anxious, it's not a good thing to go through more tribulations, since I have a fate with him, I will see you in the future." ”

???????? Xiao Wenxuan has been listening to everyone's conversation, and when she heard that her mother wanted to make her a Taoist priest, she was a little unhappy, so she walked to Xi Yingzhen's side angrily, tugged at his Taoist clothes and said, "I don't want to be a Taoist priest!" ”

????????“ Don't be rude! Wen Xianzhong dragged Wen Xuan back, and the husband and wife apologized to Xi Yingzhen again and again.

???????? Xi Yingzhen laughed and said that it was okay, and after resting for a while, she left quickly.

???????? At dinner, the family was smiling and smiling. The husband and wife also almost forgot about the events of the day, but the speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and Wen Xiao kept her brother's affairs in mind.

???????? Wen Xiao pursed her lips and said loudly: "Dad, Wen Xuan's age can already go to the countryside to study, right?" Didn't that Taoist priest also say earlier that he should let his younger brother study more? ”

???????? Wen Xuanren was a big ghost, looking at Wen Xiao with wide eyes, knowing that her sister was taking the daytime events seriously, and she didn't know whether to speak or not for a while, so she listened silently.

???????? Zhou didn't know what happened during the day, and said in surprise: "What Taoist priest?" Wen Xianzhong then repeated Xi Yingzhen's words to his mother.

???????? Wen Heng listened and said: "Dad, I heard that Mr. Meng, who is now studying in the township, is very knowledgeable, if you let your younger brother learn more from Mr. Meng and urinate, you will definitely have a deeper understanding of studying medicine with you in the future." ”

???????? But going to the countryside is also a lot of money after all, Wen Xianzhong hesitated: "Wen Xuan wants to follow me to practice medicine and diagnose the pulse in the future, naturally he needs to learn to read and break sentences, but I can teach him if it is simpler, and I don't necessarily have to go to the countryside to learn......"

???????? Wen Xianzhong was about to continue talking, but was interrupted by his mother Zhou: "Xianzhong, although my mother is old and faint, she also knows that she can't be sloppy in finding a teacher. Now that it has improved slightly, it is indeed time for Wen Xuan to go to the countryside to study and learn more from a learned gentleman. ”

???????? Fei Shi knew the difficulties of Xianggong, and comforted: "Mother, in fact, it is not that Xianzhong is reluctant to pay for Wen Xuan to go to the countryside to study, Wen Xianzhong has also accumulated a little money for daily consultations, but because our family has been poor for many years, we have never given you a good birthday, Wen Xianzhong and I originally discussed this money for you to have a good birthday, and our family is also festive." ”

???????? Zhou smiled and said: "Mother knows that you are filial, but we are ordinary people's family, which family is it for your birthday?" Let's use this money as a gift money for the township teacher, if Wenxuan can learn true knowledge, my old woman's heart will be happier than how many birthdays I have had. ”

???????? Listening to the family thinking about their own affairs, Xiao Wenxuan secretly made up her mind that she must study hard and study medicine to repay her relatives in the future.

???????? Seeing that his mother was so decisive, Wen Xianzhong also knew that this matter was inevitable, so he turned his head and said to Wen Xuan: "Wen Xuan, are you willing to go to the countryside to study and be taught?" ”

???????? Xiao Wenxuan put down the dishes and chopsticks, sat up straight, and said solemnly like an adult: "The child must work hard." ”

???????? The family couldn't help but laugh when they saw Wen Xuan's cute appearance, and they were warm.

???????? A few days later, Wen Xianzhong had already prepared the six rituals that Wen Xuan would use to apprentice.

???????? As soon as the day dawned, I went to my husband's residence to wait.

???????? Since the Western Zhou Dynasty, Confucian schools have the distinction between national and rural studies, and there are university primary schools, to the Yuan Dynasty primary schools, in addition to the traditional "Five Classics", generally have to learn the "Four Books" and so on, with the "Four Books" and "Five Classics" side by side as compulsory textbooks.

???????? Xiao Wenxuan is at the age of bun, and he can go to the countryside to study or social studies in accordance with the regulations of the imperial court.

???????? Most of Mr. Xiangxue is taught by old people, and Mr. Xiangxue of Changzhou at this time is surnamed Meng, and everyone respectfully calls him Mr. Caiweng.

???????? As soon as Meng Caiweng got up, as soon as he opened the courtyard door, he saw the father and son stopping and waiting.

???????? Wen Xianzhong hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Mr. Meng got up early. ”

???????? Meng Caiweng saw that it was Wen Xianzhong, smiled slightly, and said politely: "It turned out to be Wen Langzhong." ”

???????? Wen Xianzhong said respectfully: "Mr. Wen Xianzhong is very knowledgeable, I came to visit Mr. this time, please take Mr. and teach him some words." ”
