Chapter 66 The First Lesson
After class, Su Li was directly called away by the old gentleman, which made everyone in the classroom envious and jealous.
Su Li kept coming to a teahouse with the old gentleman on all sides, and the old gentleman didn't stand up, let Su Li sit down, and said with a smile: "Little girl, your name is Su Li, right?" β
"Yes sir." Su Li sat respectfully and spoke gently, "It was the housesister who was kicked out by Mr. just now, and the housesister has been spoiled by her mother since she was a child, so please don't mind Mr." β
"Hahahaha......"
Seeing Su Li say it so bluntly, the old gentleman didn't want to ask about the bookset before, so he changed the topic and asked: "I look at the annotations on your big letter, every word, even the old man doesn't dare to understand some opinions, you are afraid that there is a very good gentleman before, dare to ask that name?" β
"The family teacher's surname is Qi, and his name is Xianqing. It's the doctor of the town's Baicaotang, and I don't know exactly where it came from. β
Su Li asked tentatively, but saw that the old gentleman was directly stunned, and said in a lost voice: "It turned out to be the one, sure enough, ......"
When the old gentleman came back to his senses, his attitude immediately changed, and he actually said in an equal tone: "Little friend, what are you calling that gentleman...... Or Master? β
Su Liliu raised her eyebrows slightly, this old guy seemed to know a lot, but she didn't want to ask much now, so she could only answer honestly: "It's Master." β
Qi Xianqing, the old guy, didn't let her hide it, she simply said it all, clichΓ©s.
The old gentleman was immediately even more shocked, looking at Su Li back and forth, as if he wanted to see Su Li's bottom through thoroughly.
Su Li pretended to be confused and asked in a low voice, "Sir, what are you looking at?" What is the identity of the tutor, you are so shocked. β
The old gentleman immediately shook his head when he heard this, "Since your master didn't tell you, I don't dare to do much." But no, why did you come here when you have already become a talent under his teaching. β
"Sir doesn't know, this time the students are here, it is the meaning of the family."
Su Li said, sighing faintly, "Master left two months ago, I don't know where I went, it may be a long time before I come back, I have already seen the books he left behind, and it just so happened that my grandmother at home helped me sign up to come here, so I wanted to see how the book collection was." β
The old gentleman laughed dryly when he heard it, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Xiaoyou, the collection of our Muyang Academy, where is Mrs. Qi...... Mr. Qi can compare. β
What is Mrs. Qi, not Doctor Qi! It seems that that old guy has another identity.
Su Li heard a little news, was satisfied, and chatted with the old gentleman for a while before leaving alone.
After Su Li left, the old gentleman's brows were furrowed together, if Su Li was allowed to waste his time here, how could he be worthy of Master Qi!
"Dad, what are you thinking?"
At this time, a woman walked outside the door, and it was Lecturer Ning who had received the admission letter in front of the gate before.
"Qing'er, you're just in time." The old gentleman beckoned, "I saw that Su Li today, and he learned very well." I couldn't help but call her over and ask Shicheng, who knew that it was a closed disciple of Master Qi. β
Ning Qing was surprised when she heard this: "Then isn't she your little junior sister?" This shouldn't be, how can Taishi Qi still be alive, you were only sixteen years old when you apprenticed, and Taishi Qi was also sixty years old, and now more than sixty years have passed. How can anyone live to be one hundred and twenty years old?! β
The old gentleman's face immediately fell, "Master is a real land immortal, how can we measure it." β
Ning Qing didn't think so, even though her father had told her ten thousand times that Taishi Qi was a real land immortal, and he was the first person to learn in the entire Dahan Kingdom, but she had never seen it with her own eyes, how could she believe it.
She has always thought that her father worships Qi Xianqing too much and deliberately deifies him.
"Dad, you are also the head of Muyang Academy, the famous Ning Yunzhi of Qinghe County, just listen to these words, but don't spread them, ruin the reputation of the school."
When the old gentleman heard this, he could only sigh in his heart and say no more.
said that Su Li walked out of the teahouse at this moment and immediately got lost. It was the first time she came to Muyang Academy, and after taking a class, she was called to the teahouse by Ning Yunzhi, so she didn't have time to get familiar with the terrain.
"Su Li, what are you looking for?"
In her confusion, Su Li heard a crisp voice behind her, and when she looked back, it was Mei Ruohan, the only one who had passed the C character in the previous test.
"It's you, Mei Ruohan. I can't find my way. β
Su Li smiled and said in a gentle tone. Mei Ruohan's little face turned red, and she became shy, and her voice became even quieter.
"My maid is going to ask for the key to the courtyard, I... I'll take you! β
After that, Mei Ruohan walked in front to lead the way, looking back at Su Li from time to time, seeing Su Li's always gentle smile, she also unconsciously relaxed. The two chatted a few words, and the relationship was a lot closer.
"That's right, Ruohan. Are the conditions of the Poplar School so good? Someone was equipped with a separate courtyard. β
"Of course not!" Mei Ruohan hurriedly waved her hand, "If you want to live in another hospital, you have to pay another two pieces of silver, I don't know how much per month." Didn't you tell you at home? β
Su Li's eyes narrowed, and his tone was as usual, "No, let's go and have a look." β
Mei Ruohan's beautiful eyes flashed with a trace of doubt, she had already thought of something when she was smart in Bingxue, but with Su Li's talent, she was very talented...... Shouldn't the conditions at home be too bad?
You know, Mr. Teaching is not something that ordinary people can afford.
After a while, the two of them came to a blue-tiled house, and Su Li saw inside the house at a glance, and Su Zipei got a key from the steward.
"Miss, why are you here?"
A lively and cute little maid wearing a goose yellow dress jumped up and down in front of the two with the key, "Miss, I've got the key, let's go!" β
Just looking at the little girl's jumping appearance, Su Li also knew that Mei Ruohan must treat her very well, and she didn't look like a subordinate at all.
"Fruit, wait. Let me go in and ask if I have the key to Su Li. β
Mei Ruohan grabbed Guo'er and was about to go inside, but Su Li walked to the front to stop him, and shook his head in the latter's puzzled gaze.
"Yo! My dear second sister, why are you here? β
Su Zipei walked out of the door with a smile on his face, dangling the key in his hand, and his heart was churning with resentment. She didn't expect ...... I haven't seen her for just a few months, and Su Li's guts have become fat, causing her to make a big fool in the first class and fall into the descript class that only four or five-year-old children can read!
It's a shame!
How could Su Zipei, who had always been used to bullying Su Li, stand it, she wanted to take revenge immediately, but when she thought of her grandmother's plan, she still forcibly suppressed the resentment in her heart and pretended that nothing had happened.
Mei Ruohan looked at Su Zipei and Su Li in surprise, she only guessed that there was a grudge between these two people, but she didn't expect these two people to be sisters at all.
Su Li didn't have the key to the other courtyard, but Su Zipei, who performed the worst, got it, the elder of the Su family...... Could it be that there is a problem with the brain?
Mei Ruohan glanced at Su Zipei with disgust, took Su Li's hand, and said, "Su Li, why don't you live with me." The courtyard is spacious, and it's too lonely for two people to live, so I'll ask you for advice. β
Su Zipei was immediately angry when she heard this, there were many people here, and she couldn't get angry, so she could only suppress her anger and said proudly: "Su Erya! My mother said, let you live with me. You are not allowed to live in her courtyard! β
Mei Ruohan's movements froze, it turned out that the two sisters lived in the same hospital, it seemed that she was thinking too much. She was about to withdraw her hand that was holding Su Li, but she heard Su Li's magnetic voice sound.
"Sister Ruohan, let's go."
Well?
Mei Ruohan was stunned for a moment, then rejoiced in her heart, and ran away with Su Li.
She is extremely obsessed with knowledge, and the husband invited by the family was a little useful at first, but then she gradually learned up, and she couldn't learn anything at all, so she came to Muyang School in desperation, but she didn't expect that there were such knowledgeable people among her peers, so she naturally wanted to seize the opportunity and learn!
Su Zipei stupidly watched Mei Ruohan and the three of them leave, and for a while the wind was messy and at a loss.
This Su Li didn't even listen to her mother's words!
Mei Ruohan's rented courtyard is in an excellent location. It is only a few hundred meters away from the school, and the terrain is high, and if you climb to the second floor and look into the distance, you can see the whole picture of the entire Muyang Academy. A high wall can be seen in the distance, and Mei Ruohan said that the other side of the wall is a men's school.
"Miss Su Li, you don't know, Muyang Academy is dark!"
The little maid Guo'er looked around, stuck out her tongue and said: "This courtyard, you have to look at the location to collect money, the monthly rent ranges from one hundred taels to thousands of taels, and the location rented by our young lady is the best, three thousand taels a month!" β
Su Li was secretly surprised when she heard this, it seems that Mei Ruohan has a very high status in the family, otherwise the rent of three thousand taels a month, even if it is a businessman, everyone may not be willing to do it.
"Guo'er, you don't talk a little more."
Mei Ruohan reprimanded, she roughly understood Su Li's situation, for fear of causing Su Li's discomfort.
"That's right, Su Li."
Mei Ruohan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your sister wants to live in another courtyard with you, why don't you go." β
Halfway through the words, Mei Ruohan suddenly felt that something was wrong, and waved her hand and said, "Ah...... I'm just asking, and if you don't want to answer, forget it. β
"It doesn't matter." Su Li smiled lightly, "If I agree, what awaits me will inevitably be a firewood room." I don't care about poverty, but I don't want to feel uncomfortable. β
"That's right." Mei Ruohan covered her mouth in shock, "How can your Su family be like this, if a character like you appears in my family, you will definitely be regarded as a pearl in the palm of your hand, and you will do your best to cultivate it." What about your parents, don't they care? β
"Maybe, who knows."
Su Li's answer was ambiguous, but it made Mei Ruohan even more sad. Compared to Su Lilai, her troubles seemed to be insignificant.
"Don't talk about that, I see you've always been curious about that big letter and circular, so I'll lend her to you and return it to me when I leave, how about it?"
"Really? Su Li, you are so good! β
The laughter like silver bells sounded in the courtyard, and it was transmitted into the forest sea and floated far away.
Thousands of meters away from this courtyard, Su Zipei stood alone in the courtyard, looking at the messy weeds, and couldn't wait to put the grass hoe in his hand directly on Su Li's head.
"Su Li, you wait! I will make you suffer so much humiliation and be kicked out of school like a lost dog!! β
