The carriage slowly entered the county, and the fields outside, the county is also a snowy world, but compared to the desertion of the countryside, the county is a little more lively, every household is preparing for the New Year, sticking door charms, hanging rabbit heads, making face snakes, brewing Tusu wine, pounding rice cakes, it is noon, the white cooking smoke on the roofs of every house curls, the atmosphere of the New Year has gradually arrived. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the street were groups of children playing, building snowmen, having snowball fights, and there were pieces of laughter, a group of Zhuangcheng soldiers wearing Fan Yang hats and holding ash guns ran in a row, and many pedestrians walked cautiously on the road that had been trampled on, for fear that the muddy water would splash and stain the hem of their clothes.

"Hey! I really want to go down and build a snowman. Wang Gui looked at a few children who were building snowmen and said enviously.

Tang Huai closed his eyes and recuperated, like a Taoist priest who had entered the meditation, but when he heard Wang Gui's words, he couldn't help but glance at the big snowman outside the car window.

"Fifth brother, that snowman is a bit like you!" Wang Gui grinned as he pointed to a snowman in the distance wearing a hat like Yue Fei.

Yue Fei just 'Hmm! He was still reading more than a dozen masterpieces of this dynasty, especially Wang Anshi's masterpieces, and he had to memorize them backwards, and his grandfather told them again and again that they were once Wang Anshi's students.

Seeing that Yue Fei didn't pay attention to him, Wang Gui had to mumble in a low voice, "What a little master!" ”

Li Yanqing leaned in front of the window on the other side, looking at Tangyin County, this was the first time he saw the city of the Great Song Dynasty, everything made him feel novel, but so familiar, the long-standing historical and cultural ties have integrated the people who have lived in this land for thousands of years.

"Do you see the carriage in front of the inn on the left?"

Master Yao Ding, who had been silent all the way, suddenly spoke, and several people crowded towards the window of Li Yanqing's side, and even Yue Fei put down his homework and looked out of the car window.

"Master, is it the carriage with black wheels?" Wang Gui asked.

"That's the one, the teenagers who came out are from the Weinan Town School, just like you."

Everyone saw it, and saw four teenagers and an old man with a goatee coming out of the carriage, and a middle-aged man running in and out to arrange accommodation for the students.

At this time, the old man with the goatee saw Yao Ding sitting in the carriage, hurriedly beckoned, and walked quickly to this side.

Tang Huai said in a low voice: "They were the fifth the year before last, the third last year, a bunch of nasty guys. ”

Li Yanqing looked at the four teenagers, all of them were twelve or thirteen years old, their height was close to that of adults, but they were a little immature, and they could see that they were all children of rich families, wearing white hoodies cut from high-quality lake silk, wearing gauze hats, black tight fur coats, waist horn belts, and very gorgeous clothes, they stood at the door of the inn and looked at the carriage opposite, with contempt in their eyes.

The old man with the goatee stepped forward and smiled: "Master Yao, I haven't seen you for a year, and I thought you weren't going to come this year!" ”

Yao Ding didn't mince words at him, and said coldly: "I only saw him last month, why don't you see him for a year?" ”

"Huh! Maybe I didn't notice Master Yao at the time. ”

"I think Master He's eyes are on the top of his head."

Li Yanqing knows his master very well, he never knows what hypocrisy and politeness is, he will show undisguised expression on his face to people he doesn't like, such as this Master He is.

The old man with the goatee squinted and smiled, "We are all looking forward to the arrival of the Lushan Academy!" It's up to who's so lucky, haha! ”

He looked up to the sky and laughed, turned around and walked towards the inn, Yao Ding snorted heavily, let the coachman continue driving, and the carriage turned around and drove off the other road.

"Ah Tang, what do you mean by Teacher He's words?" Yue Fei asked puzzled.

Not only Yue Fei was puzzled, but Li Yanqing and Wang Gui didn't understand, Tang Huai sighed, "The rules of the first round of the ring competition are that the opponent is determined by the top four draws last year, and the four draws are the bottom four, and everyone wants to draw us, and they also named the first round of the draw 'Zhulu', which refers to our Lushan Town, because we have always been eliminated in the first round." ”

"Hmph, I don't know who killed the deer this year!" Wang Gui rolled up his sleeves and said angrily.

Li Yanqing and Yue Fei glanced at each other, both of them knew that the situation was grim, the other party was twelve or thirteen years old, but they were seven or eight-year-old children, reading was based on accumulation, what they lacked was this accumulation process.

Yao Ding heard Wang Gui's words, and his face became even darker.

．．．．．．

The carriage finally stopped in front of an inn, which was opened by Tang Huai's family in the county, called Tang Kee Inn, where they lived every year.

As soon as the carriage stopped, the innkeeper, who was as fat as a big winter melon, greeted him with two guys, and said with a smile on his face: "After waiting for a day, I finally waited for Master Yao." ”

The shopkeeper's enthusiasm is like a cup of hot tea in winter, warming their hearts, and Yao Ding's iron-like face also showed a smile, "I'm here to make trouble for the shopkeeper again." ”

"Where! Where! It is an honor for the small shop to be able to entertain the four prodigies of Hongo, go in quickly to warm up your body, and let the guy pick up the luggage. ”

Yao Ding glared at the four disciples fiercely, meaning to ask if they were worthy of the title of 'prodigy'?

The shopkeeper led everyone to the backyard, this is the inn of the Tang family, not only free of their room fees, but also prepared the best room for them, Yao Ding lived alone in an upper room, the four students lived in the largest room, and another room was vacated for their review and preparation.

"The four prodigies will clean up and go down to eat! Your master has already gone first. The shopkeeper greeted warmly at the door.

Tang Huai was a little displeased and said: "Shopkeeper Wang, don't call us prodigies in the future, it sounds harsh." ”

"Huh! The young proprietor said, I'll prepare the dishes and chopsticks, and a few petty officials should come down quickly! ”

The shopkeeper went down, and Tang Huai said to the three of them: "This shopkeeper Wang will take care of our daily life, and my uncle is responsible for the miscellaneous arrangements of the boys' club, and he lives in the county." ”

"When is the lottery?" Yue Fei asked.

"Tomorrow! It is estimated that there is still a school today that has not come, and tomorrow morning the school will preside over the lottery. ”

The four of them walked as they talked, and after a while they came to the dining hall in the front yard, which was located on the left side of the inn lobby, and was a small room, with two black lacquered jujube wood tables and benches around it, which looked quite simple.

In addition, the window was surrounded by a screen, and the furnishings inside were not bad, and there was a couch that could accommodate three people, Yao Ding sat on the couch alone, drinking wine slowly and methodically, and three or four plates of side dishes were placed in front of him.

The meal for four people is placed on the big table, and a pot of stewed old hen is steaming in the middle, and there are four or five good dishes such as braised fish, scrambled eggs with meat foam, roasted winter bamboo shoots, and mutton with cold cut sauce.

There were four large porcelain bowls around it, which were full of colorful porridge, and Wang Gui sat down and shouted, "Why do you drink porridge?" ”

Li Yanqing's heart moved, and he asked with a smile: "Shopkeeper Wang, is this Laba porridge?" ”

Shopkeeper Wang stepped forward with a smile and explained: "Although tomorrow is Laba, according to the customs of Tangyin County, you have to drink Laba porridge for three days, of course, you can not drink it today, but this is arranged by your master." ”

The four of them looked at the master together, and the master was blocked by the screen, but his cold voice came through the crack in the screen, "Yue Fei, recite the poem Sheng's "La Ri" again, and if you can't memorize it, don't eat." ”

This poem was a little cold, Yue Fei really couldn't think of it, so he had to bow his head and say, "Students don't know!" Yao Ding said angrily: "Take out the poem and read it once, go back and write it ten times." ”

Yue Fei took out the book and looked at it, then read it aloud:

The daily warmth of the wax day is still far away, and this year's wax day freeze is completely eliminated.

Invasion of snow color and daylilies, leaking spring light with wicker.

Indulge in alcohol and get drunk at night, and return home to the Zichen Dynasty.

The lip fat face medicine follows the grace, and the emerald tube silver baby goes down to the nine skies.

Li Yanqing also silently remembered that he had a very strong learning ability, and his poems were generally unforgettable.

Yao Ding nodded, "Let's eat!" After eating, go to write, write 3,000 words, and then compose a poem, with today's snow scene as the theme, you consciously point it, and go to bed when you are done, I will not check. ”

"Master is going out at night?" Wang Gui asked quickly.

"Lots of!" Yao Ding snorted.

Wang Gui didn't dare to say anything, Li Yanqing turned him with his elbow, blinked and whispered: "Maybe Master will go to spy on the enemy at night, know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles!" ”

Wang Gui suddenly smiled, imagining the appearance of the master walking on the wall in a night robe, and he added: "I also carry a sword on my back!" ”

Yue Fei sighed, "Please don't think nonsense, Master is going home." ”

"Go home!"

The three of them were stunned for a moment, you look at me, I look at you, and then they reacted, Master should have a home!

"Fifth brother, is your grandmother still there?" Li Yanqing asked.

Yue Fei shook his head, "My grandmother has been gone for many years, the master and the eldest uncle live together, and the younger uncle is studying in Bianliang Guozi. ”

After a pause, Yue Fei said again: "Uncle is the schoolman in the county. ”

Everyone was completely stunned, there is a son who is a school, Lushan Town School still wins the last place every year, how upright this son should be!
