Chapter 17 Private School

Chu Junxi really felt that going out to do the work of copying books was really very suitable for Qi Ran, and after a long time, Qi Ran's words became more and more sophisticated. The owner of the bookstore was also very happy, and sometimes when he was in a good mood, he would even send some books to dye. Although I have already read it when I copied the book, it is also good to keep it at home to review the old and learn the new.

Recently, the weather has been getting colder and colder, and Chu Junxi doesn't need to take care of the vegetables in the field all the time, so he simply goes to the market together every morning. After delivering the daily dishes, he accompanied Qi Ran to the bookstore to copy the books together.

The boss was also very polite to Chu Junxi, after all, if it weren't for her, he wouldn't have such a good helper. So every day after waiting for the two children to arrive, they immediately served hot water and stuffed a soup woman for each person.

"I don't dare to start a fire in this bookstore, so you will cover your hands and feet with a soup woman. Especially you kid, if your hands are frozen and your writing is not up to standard, I will have to deduct your wages! ”

The owner of the bookstore is a knife-mouthed tofu-hearted person, although he is stern in his mouth, he really wants to take care of them. He used to be a little prejudiced against these two children, just like those people outside, and even worried that letting a wild seed copy the book would defile the words of the saint.

But in fact, after getting along, he found that although the little girl's eyes were still panicked, this little mouth was sweet and tight, and she was in a much better mood when she praised her. And that boy, no matter who his father was, how could he teach such a meek child to be what others call a wicked woman?

"The pastry shop next door has made some new styles, and has divided the neighboring shops with some opinions, so that everyone can give some advice, how can I know what these sweets taste like? You tasted it for me, and you told me how it tasted, and I was so good! ”

"Don't worry, we're done tasting it, and we'll give you a manuscript to make you stand out in this neighborhood!" Chu Junxi took the plate and couldn't help but slap it again.

"You girl, you can't stop your mouth when you eat!" The boss couldn't laugh or cry, and left after saying a word.

On the plate are three delicate pastries, one with a white plum blossom pattern, presumably a design for the occasion, and the other two in an ordinary square shape. Giving the neighbors a new taste is something that the restaurant next door often does, which is another benefit of Qi Ran coming here to copy books.

Chu Junxi first broke a piece of white square pastry in half, and stretched out one hand to Qi Ran's mouth. "Brother Aran, try this! The more you look at the ordinary ones, the more surprising you are! ”

Qi Ran stopped the pen in his hand, leaned over slightly, and bit the cake handed by Chu Junxi, took it into his mouth, and the whole process was completed in one go.

Remembering the first time he was personally fed by Chu Junxi like this, he rubbed Chu Junxi's fingertips evilly, Chu Junxi still looked normal on the surface, but the roots of his ears were already red.

"Is it delicious?" Chu Junxi looked at Qi Ran with blank eyes, waiting for the results of the tasting.

Qi Ran chewed slowly, enjoying the process of Chu Junxi watching himself wait for feedback, and only after Qi Ran swallowed the pastry did he finally nodded.

There were stars flashing in Chu Junxi's eyes, after crossing here, he rarely had the opportunity to eat delicious food, so he cherished such a moment. Seeing Qi Ran nodding, she put her half of it into her mouth.

"Delicious! There is a faint milk fragrance, it should be added with goat's milk! ”

After eating this piece, Chu Junxi did not rush to the next piece, but stopped. You can't eat it all at once, and it's fun to wait for the next piece to be eaten.

When Qi Ran finished copying today's book, and Chu Junxi finished eating the other two pastries, the two of them took the copied book and the empty plate to the bookstore owner.

When they walked to the hall, they found that the boss was receiving guests, and the person who came was Mr. Luo, who was also a regular customer of the bookstore.

"Didn't you say last time that this is a lone book and not for sale? Why are you willing to do it again this time? "Mr. Luo is the one who met Chu Junxi last time, the private school gentleman who wants to buy a lonely book.

"Last time was last time, and this book for you is a manuscript, not an original manuscript, otherwise why do you think I will be willing to sell it to you for five taels of silver?" The owner of the bookstore stood with his arms crossed, looking very proud.

Mr. Luo looked at the book in his hand again, it was indeed much newer than the last time, and the handwriting was a little different. "Do you still have the leisure to copy by hand? Isn't it just to earn my money? ”

"Hey, you old man, don't underestimate me! I happened to find a kid to help me copy books in the store, otherwise you wouldn't have been so blessed! ”

"Oh? This is a good handwriting, did you find a show to help you copy it? Or a student at a private school? ”

"Hmph, it's not those guys with low eyes! is also a poor child, that is, the child of the Qi family in Beihe Village, although the rumors are unbearable, I am a good child after contact. It's just a pity that this kid can't speak, otherwise he will definitely be a person who will make great achievements in the future! ”

The boss praised Qi Ran, Chu Junxi and Qi Ran heard it when they were hiding, and Chu Junxi also gave Qi Ran a thumbs up.

"You're saying so well, can you let me see you?"

"Well, let's do it! I'm a little reluctant, but I'm a kind person! ”

The owner of the bookstore was about to go inside, and Chu Junxi also pulled Qi Ran to hurry back, pretending that he had just finished copying the book, and he didn't hear anything and didn't know anything.

"Qi Ran, this is Mr. Luo from Yunjian Private School, he wants to meet you."

Qi Ran put down the book in his hand and saluted Mr. Luo. Chu Junxi also shouted, "Hello Mr. Luo." ”

Mr. Luo nodded, the first thing he saw was actually Chu Junxi, after all, those eyes were too conspicuous, and there would probably be no one in the entire Qinghe Town who didn't know Chu Junxi's child.

After that, he looked at Qi Ran, who was indeed a humble and polite child, and his eyes were also very clean. I didn't feel inferior at all because of my flaws.

"Lao Luo, I can tell you, this kid is amazing! If I asked him to copy the book a few more times, he would not have to look at the original anymore in the future, and he could write it down silently, word for word! Today's "Biography" was written down directly by him! ”

"I'll take a look......" Mr. Luo nodded while reading, when he read this book by himself, he also read it for a long time before he could barely memorize it, this kid is really talented, and he has the confidence to write silently after copying it a few times.

"Child, are you interested in coming to our private school? With such a talent of yours, you will definitely be able to become a great weapon in the future! After reading Qi Ran's dictation, Mr. Luo actually launched such an invitation, but the boss had already prepared it.

Qi Ran was stunned for a moment, but he didn't look half happy, and shook his head.

Chu Junxi didn't expect Qi Ran to refuse at all, what a good opportunity, why refuse? "Brother Aran, why did you refuse? Are you worried about tuition fees? I can help you figure it out! It's a rare opportunity, you're going! ”

"Don't worry about the tuition fee, since the old man invited you, my old man will naturally pay for this fee!" Seeing Qi Ran's refusal, Mr. Luo hurriedly promised the question of tuition.

"Yes, this old puppet has money at home, let him out! In the future, remember to come back to help me copy books! The owner of the bookstore also heckled.

Qi Ran still shook his head, it wasn't because of the tuition fee that he didn't want to go to a private school.

"Why is that? Is it because of your body? Although you can't speak, with your qualifications, even if you can't speak, you can still have a place. You're young, it's better to stay in the countryside all the time! ”

Qi Ran still shook his head and bowed to Mr. Luo again, expressing his gratitude and apologies. Qi Ran is indeed very happy to have someone willing to appreciate him, but in his life, he really only wants to stay in this rural place. Then, Qi Ran pulled Chu Junxi out.

"Why wouldn't this kid want to? If you take the imperial examination in the future, you will definitely be able to make a difference, I really can't figure it out......"

"Maybe it's something else. Don't worry, that girl is a sensible person, and she will definitely persuade her when she goes back, if you can't even persuade her, then you can only look at him in my book house in the future, and sigh! ”

Qi Ran's face was not very good-looking, and Chu Junxi was very worried. "Brother Aran...... Can you tell me why you don't want to go? ”

The two of them sat by the river, and the atmosphere was unusually depressing. Chu Junxi used to feel that Qi Ran always seemed to be rejecting people outside, intentionally or unintentionally, and originally thought that he was just because of low self-esteem, but today she suddenly felt that there must be some other reason.

Qi Ran sat and didn't speak, he had no way to tell Chu Junxi for this reason, and he couldn't even confess to her now that he wasn't dumb. If he knew that he had been hiding from her and lying to her, would he still treat himself like he is now?

If she knew her life experience, what mood would she use to look at herself and her mother?

Chu Junxi's mouth was dry, and Qi Ran didn't react at all, and didn't listen to it at all. "If you don't go, forget it! In vain with other people's kindness, I am also nosy! ”

didn't get a response for a long time, Chu Junxi was really angry, although Qi Ran couldn't speak, but he had never been like this before, he was so bored, and he didn't even want to give a reason, what's the matter?

got up and patted his clothes, and Chu Junxi left angrily. Qi Ran found that Chu Junxi was angry and didn't want to take care of him, so he panicked a little and hurriedly got up to chase after him.

Chu Junxi was walking and walking, and was suddenly hugged by a person from behind, and he was really startled. It wasn't until she looked down and saw the hands in front of her that she realized that it was Qi Ran. "You, you let go of me, didn't you ignore me? What kind of system do you have in this way? ”

Actually, this is in the woods, and there is no one around!

After Chu Junxi was hugged by Qi Ran, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.

Qi Ran felt that the person in his arms was getting hotter and hotter, and his irritability was relaxed again.
