"Okay." Yang Siniang pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Third Brother Shen, don't scold me, Siniang can remember everything." She counted something on her fingers, and then said, "If you go back in the future, you will give me a candy man, then I can open a candy man shop in the village!" ”

Shen Kang smiled helplessly and replied, "Okay, Siniang opens a candy man shop." ”

Yang Chengli slowly took Yang Siniang's little hand and said to the Shen brothers: "Don't spoil her." ”

"She's a sister, and it's natural to spoil her." Shen Changman said indifferently.

After a few more gossips, bidding farewell to his family and neighbors, the ox cart finally left Xianan Village and set foot on the road to the county seat.

Shen Chang was extremely happy today, he finally had the feeling of "walking out" of the mountain village.

Shen Kang is not so easy, going out does not only mean a bright future. He twisted his cuffs and said slowly: "Second brother, we have to associate with more people from today, so we all have to make some changes, such as speech and behavior, and we can no longer be presumptuous like in the village." ”

Shen Chang stopped humming, turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile: "Second brother knows." ”

Shen Kang nodded and said: "When you don't understand, let's look at others more, even if we make jokes, it's pointless, we just came out of the mountains, there's nothing to be ashamed of, only by being frank can we interact with frank people." ”

"I understand."

Shen Kang believed in his transparency, sighed, and nodded affirmatively,

The ox cart came to the suburbs about five or six miles outside the county seat, Shen Cheng inquired a few passers-by, and according to the guidance of passers-by, he successfully found Luming Academy. The academy is located in the east direction outside the county, built according to the mountain, after getting off the ox cart, it goes back to the middle of the mountain, and finally comes to the door.

Shen Kang always thought that Luming Academy was in the county seat, but he didn't expect it to be still in the suburbs, but it was very close to the county seat, and it would take about an hour to get to the county seat on foot, and it would take twenty minutes to get there by car.

In the appearance, the white walls and green tiles, the eaves of the mountain-style house, the regular wooden strips are wedged into a fine ridge, and the plaque with green characters on a black background is hung under the eaves, and the four big characters of "Luming Academy" are written on it. Looking at the environment around the academy, it looks like a Zen forest Taoist temple hidden here.

There are plaques hanging on the doorposts on both sides, and a word of encouragement is written. Upper book: Settle down and live in the world, take learning as the first, and the next word: Establish a school and establish a world, based on books.

Looking through the gate, you can see the second gate, and suddenly there are figures walking slowly, and there are daily handymen in the academy, such as cousins, cooks, and clerks, as well as hired servants who run errands.

Seeing Shen Cheng's father and son coming up the mountain with a big bag, the little guy who guarded the courtyard hurriedly stepped forward.

"Are you here to study?" A little guy asked.

Shen Cheng nodded and said, "Come and meet Mr. Haoran." ”

"Mr. Haoran?" As if the little guy didn't believe it, the other guy already sneered: "Where did the hillbilly also want to meet Mr. Haoran, Mr. can you meet casually?" Stay where it's cool, don't get in the way of your eyes. ”

Shen Cheng is used to being honest, but now that he is looked down upon, the unconfident energy in his body has risen again. He bent his back slightly, lowered his head and said, "Tired..."

Shen Kang gritted his teeth, stood up and shouted angrily: "I am a hillbilly from Xiannan Village, and I am here to see Mr. Haoran today, you two stop here again, don't blame me for being ruthless and hurting your face." ”

Even if he is forbearing, he doesn't need to release kindness to these people, the Shen family's father and son are already a central air conditioning personality, if he is soft, then he will be bullied to the tenth floor underground.

"Tsk?" The tall and thin guy breathed in surprise, and raised his hand to push Shen Kang.

Shen Kang dodged sideways, raised his hand and slapped away the hand that was pushing at him, and said angrily, "Take care of your claws." ”

"You—" The little guy looked at him in surprise, and actually flinched a little.

Shen Kang squinted at him and said, "The mundane things in his eyes are full of yellow and white things, and he hasn't reported it yet!" ”

The little guy is also a subordinate, and he is also a bully and afraid of the hard, as soon as he saw Shen Kang's face, he knew that this child had some background, and he didn't dare to step forward again.

Another guy smiled and said, "Don't hurt the harmony." ”

"Stop!"

With a loud shout, Bai Qichang stepped out of the door, the heroic young man was full of displeasure, frowned slightly and glanced at the little guy, and then smiled: "Shen Kang, I've been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Shen Kang frowned slightly and looked at Bai Qichang, sighed, looked sideways at the two little guys who retreated to the side, and said, "Brother Bai, these two little brothers don't let the kid enter the door, and they don't want to report for the kid." ”

The faces of the two little guys changed slightly, what else can't be understood, Bai Gongzi clearly knows this poor boy!

Bai Qichang smiled gently and kindly, his slightly heroic face flushed slightly, and turned to the two of them: "This is Shen Kang Shen Xiaolang, a disciple of Mr. Shen's deceased, who came here to study, don't you apologize to Shen Xiaolang?" ”

The two little guys hurriedly bowed their hands: "The little one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, don't blame Shen Xiaolang." ”

Shen Kang didn't answer, but turned to Bai Qichang and said, "This is my father and brother. ”

Bai Qichang greeted the two of them one by one, and then said with a smile: "Mr. is waiting for you in the front hall, come quickly." Then he asked suspiciously: "Why did your scholar come first, but you came later?" I asked him, but he didn't answer. ”

Shen Kang was slightly stunned: "You say... Scholar? ”

"Hmm." Bai Qichang's face was as pale as before, and he said, "The one called Ah Shu has already gone to take care of the residence for you and Shen Chang first." ”

Shen Kang scratched his head, this Liu Shu... If you don't come, you don't say hello, and you make your own decisions.

Stepping into Luming Academy, a tall orange tree stands on the south side of the courtyard, although it is early spring, its leaves are luxuriant, and it looks like an old tree.

Seeing Shen Kang's eyes can't stop looking at the tree, Bai Qichang smiled and explained kindly: "There is a folk saying that oranges are auspicious Jiarui, this tree was planted by the mountain chief himself, and now Luming Academy is thriving, it can't be said that it is the auspicious atmosphere brought by this tree." ”

Shen Chang smiled: "Xiao San is greedy again? ”

Bai Qichang smiled lowly and said, "This tree is indeed fruitful in the first autumn, but... Huaibei is orange, Huainan is orange. The fruit of this orange tree is sour and small and cannot be eaten. ”

Shen Kang silently looked up at the canopy of the orange tree, and replied, "Empress Jiashu, the orange is obedient." Ordered not to move, born in the south of the country. It is deeply rooted and difficult to migrate, and it is even more ambitious. The green leaves are glorious, and they are gratifying. The chief of the mountain is to warn us to be steadfast, open-minded and selfless, good inside and beautiful outside, honest and reasonable. ”

Bai Qichang smiled and said, "Exactly." The two words fell, and the kind smile on his face became warmer and warmer, but a cold light rose from the bottom of his eyes.
