Fang Xiaoru is a native of Ninghai, Zhejiang, Ma Du has never set foot in the territory of Zhejiang except for following Shen Wansan to Hangzhou once, and he has never had any contact with Fang Xiaoru, he suddenly came over to thank him, which made Ma Du very confused, so he asked suspiciously: "Where did Xie come from?" ”

"Mr. didn't know that his father was Fang Keqin, the prefect of Jining, because he opened a warehouse to collect the displaced people and distributed land to the displaced people, but he was jointly impeached by the subordinate county orders. Fortunately, Mr. said well in front of the emperor, and his father was not only not punished by the imperial court, but also praised by the emperor. ”

Ma Du didn't expect that the Jining prefect who helped him slap Timur in the face turned out to be Fang Xiaoru's father, and after he returned to Yingtian, he did praise two sentences of Jining prefect on the chapter to Lao Zhu.

Without waiting for Ma Du to speak, Zhu Xiaosi interjected: "This actually has nothing to do with my uncle, it is my father's wisdom, of course he will not be fooled by a few petty officials, I will take you to the palace to thank my father on another day and holiday." ”

Fang Xiaoru arched his hand in the direction of Ying Tian, "The emperor is naturally the son of the Holy Tomorrow!" ”

Ma Du pouted, come on, Lao Zhu has not listened to slanderous rumors and unjustly killed good officials.

He took out the posture of Mr. and looked at Fang Xiaoru, "This marquis is the emperor's courtier, this is my business, there is no need to thank you." Well, your father asked you to thank you. ”

Fang Xiaoru replied: "That's not it, at that time, the student was studying in Jining with his father, and his father heard that he was jointly impeached by his colleagues, and he was worried that he couldn't sleep and eat. ”

"Oh, that's right." Ma Du said lightly, he has no power or power, and he really doesn't even have a person who hugs his thigh.

"Your father is a cadre, and his heart to help the poor is admirable, but no matter how the state of the country changes, it should be within the law of the imperial court, otherwise it will be too late for him to regret it."

Fang Keqin opened a warehouse to release grain and distribute land to the homeless, obviously going to the front of the court, otherwise he would not be impeached by his colleagues. Lao Zhu was nitpicky about his subordinate officials, and Ma Du couldn't bear to have such a good official cut off his head because he crossed the red line for a while, so he casually persuaded him. He didn't know that in history, Fang Keqin lost his life in a daze because of the empty seal case.

Fang Xiaoru arched his hand and said: "Thank you for the teachings of Mr., the student will write a letter to convey Mr.'s words to his father when he turns around." ”

"Go, don't stay in the classroom all the time to study, you can go to Juju with King Yan when you have time, and you can go back to the fourth child."

Fang Xiaoru nodded yes, he didn't let him read but let him play for the first time, he turned around and left with a goodbye, he just left the office when an arm suddenly hooked his neck, and then remembered a voice in his ear, "Dude, remember to copy my homework in the future!" ”

Looking at Zhu Xiaosi and Fang Xiaoru hooking their shoulders, Ma Du felt like a dream, as for Zhu Xiaosi, he was even dreaming, how could Xueba do the same homework as Xuescum.

Wang Xiaozhu always thought that his life would be like his father Wang Dazhu, and he kept knocking and beating next to the stove all his life, and then his father accidentally found an iron mine, and he felt that he had become a blacksmith in this life.

Who knew that the iron mine was confiscated by the government later, and they were given 20 acres of good paddy fields, and the family was moved from Taiping Mansion to Yingtian.

However, his family are blacksmiths for generations, and his father has never farmed, let alone how to serve, and he loses a year by planting.

Daddy begged Hou Ye, Hou Ye simply asked Daddy to rent the paddy fields to tenants to plant, and helped Daddy open a blacksmith shop in the city, while Wang Xiaohammer himself was sent to study, or studied in the Royal Academy.

Dad told him to study hard, this opportunity was he asked Hou Ye with a shy old face, this affection is used less and less, there are not many opportunities to ask for Hou Ye in the future, he must come back from learning some skills in the academy.

Wang Xiaohammer never thought that he would become a scholar, the azure scholar's robe is very beautiful, I heard that it is still the style set by the emperor himself, walking on the street with wide sleeves, others will look at him with envy, which makes him enjoy it very much, and his head is always raised high unconsciously.

But when he entered the academy, his head couldn't help but hang down, for no other reason, last semester he took the second-to-last exam in the class, and the penultimate was a person named Li Jinglong. But in front of Li Jinglong, he couldn't be proud at all, because Li Jinglong's father was a national prince, and his father was just a blacksmith.

It's not that he doesn't like to study, but I don't know why when he hears the gentlemen giving lectures on the stage, he is so sleepy that his eyelids will fight unconsciously, especially Mr. Yuan's class, and he can't understand what he is talking about at all. Wang Xiaozhu forced himself to read every day, no matter how big his eyes were, it was useless, and he fell asleep after a while.

Mr. Yuan was so angry that he didn't know how many hands he had beaten, saying that a fool like him should get out of the academy as soon as possible, so as not to lose the people in the academy. Mr. Yuan is actually a good person, although he is fierce, he often makes up lessons for him in private, and of course he has received more precepts.

In fact, Wang Xiaohammer is more willing to follow Mr. Donggua, no, it is Mr. Xiao Feng who makes up the class, Mr. Xiao Feng is not only kind but also patient, never beats people with a ruler, and the lecture is also interesting, Wang Xiaohammer's arithmetic improves quickly, but it all helps He is still the worst, worst, and most unpromising student in the academy.

He was so discouraged that he was about to discuss with his father about returning to the blacksmith shop to make iron, but suddenly a special gentleman came. The reason why he is special is because he does not teach the Four Books and the Five Classics, nor does he teach calligraphy Danqing, nor even arithmetic, but teaches people carpenters.

Mr. Bo's class was very interesting, not only did he bring a lot of planers, chisels, and axes to class, but also many beautiful and delicate models, which the students were very interested in.

After a class, Mr. Bo asked if anyone would like to be his introductory disciple and could follow him to train at any time.

Wang Xiaohammer felt that there was nothing bad about being a carpenter, at least he didn't have to guard the stove in the summer like his father, but why was he the only one who raised his hand.

Mr. Bo was very happy, telling him that he could go to his office to find him after class every morning, and took a small jade pendant on the spot, saying that it was a meeting gift for him, which made his classmates around him envious.

Since the husband gave the greeting gift, then he had to prepare the apprenticeship ceremony. Dad saved some money in the account room of the academy to provide for ordinary expenses, but the food and clothing in the academy, including pen, ink, paper and inkstone, did not cost money, so he never touched it.

Wang Xiaozhu hurriedly asked for leave from Zhao Houye, and went to a nearby market to buy celery, lotus seeds, dates, red beans, longan, and a lean pork, and then went to Mr. Bo's office.
