Immediately, it entered the winter, the days are short and the nights are long, the weather is cold and frozen, in the past years, this is the most idle season for people, but at the end of the fourth year of Huangyou, Fuping Township, Gaoyang County ushered in the most lively winter in history, Gaoyang School, officially opened.

Among them, Xu Caizheng is the most famous, but because Xu Deshan set the most stringent registration conditions, in the end, there are only a dozen people studying under Xu Caizheng's hands, and in the three subjects of industry, agriculture and commerce, even the smallest number of business, it is enough to recruit fifty people, and this is still Xu Deshan picked out fifty people in a hurry, and the two subjects of industry and agriculture, because this is one of the few idle times in a year, so Xu Deshan does not refuse, and there are more than 100 people in each subject to listen to the class.

So this winter, Xu Deshan is busy again, his time is limited, but he wants to spread more knowledge, and these knowledge, to be basic, practical, and easy to understand, because most of these students are illiterate, sometimes in order to be able to explain a simple concept, Xu Deshan may have to spend half an hour to make them understand.

Knowledge, not learned in vain, you see that you usually don't use so many theories in your work, but you have the relevant knowledge and only know the same as the machine to work, it is not a concept at all, there may be people who do not understand their own work, why do they have to learn these things, but after a few days of real learning, as long as they come here to listen to the class, everyone can find themselves reborn like changes.

Of course, most of the people who came to Xu Deshan's class were some big and coarse, some people saw that Xu Deshan was young, As for some people who don't have this spiritual awareness, they make trouble in class and splash after class, Xu Deshan naturally has a southern way to deal with him, so Gao Mang ran to the county government and invited the county lieutenant Ma Debiao, who dares to be disobedient at this moment, the county lieutenant Ma will immediately arrest you out to get to know each other, at most it is not a cup of tea, no matter what this person looks like when he comes back, anyway, he is honest, he understands and understands, anyway, he will never dare to make trouble again.

The course continued like this, Xu Deshan went to class during the day, and he had to prepare the next day's content at night, and he slept directly in Xu Caizheng's study several times, Xu Caizheng looked distressed, for fear that Xu Deshan would catch a cold, and he didn't care about spending money, so he directly placed two pots of charcoal fire in the study for Xu Deshan to keep warm, the effect of this is obvious, once the charcoal fire was not burning, if it wasn't for the people who played the watch at night and found that there was no light in the study to go in and take a look, and saw Xu Deshan's face pale, Xu Deshan almost ended his young life that day.

Since then, Xu Deshan has added another project to himself in addition to class, that is, running, because he has to go to class during the day and record at night, so the running time is set at five watches. If it is easy to do in summer, the sky is already bright at this time, but this is winter, the sun has no shadow when the fifth watch, and nothing can be seen.

What is Xu Deshan's identity now, his status in the Xu Mansion has faintly surpassed Xu Caizheng's trend, the two ladies don't dare to let Xu Deshan go out, what if they meet a bad person, of course, someone must be on the side, so this errand undoubtedly fell on Gao Mang's body, no way, who called Gao Mang was Xu Deshan's guard from the beginning.

This is hard for Gao Mang, Gao Mang is a person who practices martial arts, and now he is guarding the Xu Mansion, doing a line of love, and eating this bowl of rice from others, he must be serious and responsible, so Gao Mang also has to boil his body every day and practice martial arts. But this practice is practice, we are not a martial arts master, in this small village, dealing with a ruffian, petty theft is the sky, why do you want to practice in winter and summer, and get up in the dark, isn't this purely asking for hardship, how good it is to practice martial arts during the day, not only comfortable, but also to be seen, how good it is.

But since Xu Deshan got up early, Gao Mang's life is different, Xu Deshan not only got up early, but his physical strength is also very good, this kid is only five years old, but he really doesn't want to run anymore, the first day of running, he ran around the village for seven or eight laps before stopping, and every day after that, Xu Deshan not only got up on time, but also ran farther and farther, and it was almost time for the New Year, Gao Mang found that with his physical strength, he couldn't keep up with Xu Deshan's footsteps, and it was often Xu Deshan's life. And Gao Mang himself was already out of breath, which made Gao Mang have to sigh that the years are unforgiving, and in a blink of an eye, he is already about to be forty years old, and Xu Deshan is really a beast.

The tighter the schedule, the faster the time flies, Xu Deshan feels that he has not given these students anything, this day when he went to the school next door, he was stopped by Xu Caizheng, Xu Caizheng's face was a little unhappy, and asked Xu Deshan: "You go slowly first, do you know what day it is." ”

Xu Deshan didn't understand what Xu Caizheng meant, so he touched his head and said, "What day is it?" ”

Xu Caizheng said: "Today is the twenty-second day of the lunar month. ”

Xu Deshan touched his nose and asked, "So what's the matter?" ”

Xu Caizheng said with a dark face: "Today is twenty-two, tomorrow is twenty-three, twenty-three is Xiao Nian, you have tossed for a year this year, why, don't you even plan to have a good time this year?" ”

Xu Deshan hesitated for a moment and asked, "What does the father mean?" ”

Xu Caizheng said: "Tomorrow will start the holiday." ”

Xu Deshan thought for a while and said, "Twenty-three will be a holiday, it's a little early." ”

Xu Caizheng said: "What do you mean?" ”

Xu Deshan said simply: "Twenty-nine, not thirty mornings off, the seventh year of the junior high school starts." ”

Xu Caizheng directly slapped Xu Deshan and said: "What nonsense are you talking about, according to the customs here, after Laba, it will be the New Year, I saw that you were happy to teach in the school, so I didn't say anything, but now that it's twenty-three, you have to take a holiday if you say anything, even if you don't want to rest, those of them still have to celebrate the New Year with their families." ”

Xu Deshan said: "But if this is the case, you won't be able to keep up with the progress." ”

Xu Caizheng scolded: "What progress do you have in a small broken school, I want to be the first and second grade members of Kaifeng Bianliang, the prime minister's privy envoy, the emperor's prince, if there are any national affairs, they will be closed tomorrow, I am in charge, tomorrow will be a holiday, and the sixteenth school will start." ”

After Xu Caizheng finished speaking, he didn't wait for Xu Deshan to object, he turned around and left, Xu Deshan had no choice, he had just reached the momentum of this lesson, and now he was on vacation, it was really a little unpleasant, but Xu Deshan thought about it, he spoke so well, I am afraid that even if he said that he was on vacation, those students would not listen, and when the time came, they would gather at the gate of Xu's mansion and clamored for class, and see what else you Xu Caizheng could do.

However, Xu Deshan miscalculated, this is the first time Xu Deshan miscalculated the mood of a student, students, even if they are good students, they are always looking forward to the room, when Xu Deshan announced tomorrow's holiday, the expected reluctance, infinite nostalgia and waiting for the look did not appear on everyone's faces, but a wave of impetuousness about the holiday surged in everyone's hearts, and there was no way to even take the class well, Ma Debiao was afraid that he couldn't suppress everyone's excitement here, Xu Deshan barely took a half-day class, Seeing this, he snorted angrily, threw the book on the table, and simply gave everyone a holiday in advance, and went home to enjoy the New Year.

Spring Festival, since ancient times is the traditional festival of the Chinese land, as the name suggests, the Spring Festival is to celebrate the arrival of spring, the recovery of all things, the beginning of farming, and for most people, especially children, the meaning of the Spring Festival may be more tired after a year, and finally have a time, whether rich or poor, you can enjoy it, the grandiose excuse,

In order to enjoy the day of the Spring Festival, there was a lot of preparation work before, and most of these jobs were relatively hard, such as the cleaning of the old and the new, although the Xu Mansion was not big, but the servants were relatively few, in order to clean the entire Xu Mansion, the whole house, all mobilized, worked for three days, in the words of the two ladies, that is, the Xu Mansion was finally cleaned up.

Although Xu Deshan's current age, with Xu Deshan's reputation, all kinds of labor in Xu's house have been not next to Xu Deshan, but Xu Deshan is still very puzzled, in his impression, not to mention that Xu's house is already clean and tidy in ordinary times, even if it was the New Year in the past, I don't remember tossing such a big movement, but this year, not to mention that the floor tiles at home have almost been swept down, and even the furniture at home has been replaced with a new set.

Xu Deshan was a little puzzled, thinking that these two housewives are usually not big spenders, why are they so willing to spend money during the Chinese New Year this year, is this because they see that there is an income in the family this year, and their thoughts are different? But even if you have money, you can't be so bad, well, it's true to buy more meat.

Xu Deshan took this question and found Xu Caizheng, but found that Xu Caizheng was not idle now, he was busy writing couplets in the study, and there was already a pile of waste paper crumpled by Xu Caizheng on the ground.

Xu Deshan picked up one of them and looked at it, and couldn't help but ask strangely: "Father, this pair of characters is well written, why did you throw him away." ”

Xu Caizheng said: "It's not good, it's not good, I want to write the best, I have been the director of the country's superintendent, the word is that my face is not written well, wouldn't it be a slap in my face." ”

Xu Deshan stretched out his head and looked at the one Xu Caizheng was writing, and said, "Then you don't have to write it." ”

Xu Caizheng asked, "Why don't you write it?" ”

Xu Deshan said: "That's it at your level, it's still like this if you write for a long time, what kind of strength do you write." ”
