Chapter 45: Why do you still say that you will turn your face?
When they arrived in Qingliu Town, it was already afternoon, and after separating from Qin Tao and them, Liu Xiu went straight to the residence of Mr. Zhao, who inquired about.
He thought about it, it was impossible to enter the school with those little children to read and write for a long time, and find Mr. Zhao, just hire the other party as his personal teacher, with his own memory, it should not take long to learn the words of this world, and then the purpose of his trip will be more than half completed.
"It's afternoon, Mr. Zhao should have gone home from class, if you go at this time, it's the right time to discuss the tuition fee with him first, and then find a way to exchange the silver thread grass you brought for money to find a temporary residence, so that you can study tomorrow......"
Thinking in his heart, the residence of Mr. Zhao that Qin Tao said had arrived.
This place is located in the back of Aoyagi Town, a clear river, the weeping willows on the bank have begun to lose their leaves, the breeze blows through the willow leaves and falls, and the autumn slaughter has come to the world.
An elegant courtyard stands on the shore, with a small bamboo forest in the yard and a small flower garden along a fence, and golden autumn chrysanthemums are blooming beautifully.
"The place where cultural people live is different, it looks very comfortable, living by the river, accompanied by water, and likes bamboo chrysanthemum, it seems that this old Mr. Zhao is quite stylish."
Looking at the environment here a little, Liu Xiu muttered in his heart, even if he hadn't seen Mr. Zhao in person, the other party had already had a preliminary impression in his heart.
But realizing that Mr. Zhao is a person with a backbone, this makes him a little entangled, to put it bluntly, the so-called style is a kind of character problem, in the face of such a person, if you have an appetite for him, it is easy to become a friend, if you don't have the right appetite, you are doing everything to please people and not treat you.
First impressions matter......
After all, there is a request for others, Liu Xiu does not feel that he is superior, although he is not a dusty servant all the way, but the clothes on his body are also a little messy, and after a little tidying, he stepped forward with a smile and knocked on the knocker of the courtyard gate.
His keen senses sensed it, there were people in the courtyard, and there was only one person, it should be Mr. Zhao That's right, after all, Qin Tao said that Mr. Zhao had been in Qingliu Town for more than ten years and no one had seen his family.
There was a knock on the door, but in a matter of moments, it creaked open, and an old man in gray appeared inside the door.
This should be Mr. Zhao, right? When he saw the other party, Liu Xiu secretly said in his heart, and his stunned expression flashed.
He originally thought that Mr. Zhao was an old man with white hair, but the person in front of him at this time, although he still looked old, he was very energetic, his black hair was meticulously combed, although the gray cloth robe on his body was old but very clean, and his body was straight, giving people a clean and neat feeling.
looked at each other slightly, but it was the person inside the door who took the lead in speaking: "Who is this little brother looking for?" ”
"Dare to ask, but Mr. Zhao in person?" Liu Xiu smiled and said politely.
The old man in the door nodded slightly puzzled and said, "I'm Zhao Wangshan, little brother Zhao me?" ”
"It's a little thing to disturb Mr. Zhao, I wonder if Mr. can talk about it?" Liu Xiu bowed his hand slightly, whether it is out of respect for the old man or it is possible to learn from the other party for a period of time in the future, there will be no less etiquette.
Hearing Liu Xiu's words, Zhao Wangshan frowned slightly and said with some displeasure: "No matter who you are, if you are here for the affairs of the Liu family, then please go back, I really can't help."
As he spoke, he prepared to close the door.
At this time, Liu Xiu was stunned, where is this? immediately spoke: "Mr. Zhao has misunderstood, but he came here this time not for the Liu family's affairs, but for some private matters to visit the old man, please make it convenient."
When he said this, Liu Xiuxin said, Could it be that the Liu family was suppressed by the Tian family, and actually begged him to come here? How can he, as a teacher, help? Could it be that because he is 'highly respected', and the town school is also run by three schools, so he can be used as a link to reconcile them?
"Not? …… Well, come in" Zhao Wangshan looked at Liu Xiu's expression and really couldn't see anything, and nodded after a little hesitation.
Then, Liu Xiu was able to enter Zhao Wangshan's small courtyard, and Zhao Wangshan led the way in front and walked to the living room of the house.
Following behind the other party, Liu Xiu looked around slightly, and then purely subconsciously, his eyes looked at the bamboo forest in the courtyard, especially one of the inconspicuous bamboos, which gave him a different feeling, but he couldn't say that it was different.
Looking away, Liu Xiu's eyes were on Mr. Zhao again, and the strange color in his eyes flashed.
Zhao Wangshan walked normally in front of him, but Liu Xiu keenly felt that every step he took seemed to be measured with a ruler, no more, no less, his eyes caught his right hand, and found that his tiger mouth and fingers were covered with calluses......
This old Mr. Zhao Wangshan doesn't seem to be simple, to say that it is normal to hold a pen to make his hands calloused, but the calluses on his hands are not like they are practiced by holding a pen!
Such a thought flashed in Liu Xiu's heart, no matter what Mr. Zhao's past was, it was none of his business, this time he was mainly here to read.
The two came to the living room, Zhao Wangshan motioned for Liu Xiu to take a seat, and then poured him double the herbal tea, then sat down and looked at him and wondered: "What is the matter with the little brother looking for the old man?" Let's talk about it, let's talk about it first, I'm just a teacher, and if it's troublesome, I can't do anything."
Well, this old Mr. Zhao is really the same as Qin Tao said, he is a good person, he can still be polite in the face of himself, a stranger, he didn't say anything about it at the first time, and he didn't refuse without understanding his intentions.
With a flickering mind, Liu Xiu organized his language a little and said bluntly: "It's such an old gentleman, the younger Liu Xiu, who has been illiterate since childhood, and this time I came to visit the old gentleman, I want to ask the old gentleman to teach me to read and write, and please fulfill the wishes of the younger generation."
Zhao Wangshan listened to Liu Xiu's words calmly, and then sighed: "It is naturally good that you have this heart, reading and literacy, knowing reason, knowing your mind, and knowing your ambition, I am also happy to help younger generations like you, after all, it is my duty to teach people to read and write......"
Hearing this, Liu Xiu was overjoyed, and estimated that this matter was probably about to happen.
However, before Liu Xiu could be happy, Zhao Wangshan's face turned cold and snorted: "However, you are not honest at all, you said that you are illiterate but you speak decently, it is rare that you are not polite and not humble or arrogant, do you think this is really the performance of an illiterate person?" No matter what purpose you have, whether it's for the Liu family to come to contact me or for something else, I will treat you as if I have never seen you, please go, I will not be far away! ”
Liu Xiu's expression was stunned, why did he still say that he turned his face and turned his face?
turned to cry and laugh, and said very sincerely: "Old man, the younger generation really came to ask for advice, is it really illiterate, how can you let me be good?" ”
Liu Xiu's performance is indeed that no one will think that he is illiterate after watching it, but he really doesn't know the words of this world, who is going to reason with this?
However, Zhao Wangshan decided that Liu Xiu was here to play him, and pointed to the door with a cold face and said: "I don't have so much time to talk nonsense with you, let's go, if you want to bully me with young strength and helplessness, I can't say that I have to find someone!" ”
Liu Xiu was speechless, yes, as soon as this kind of person with a 'backbone' temper comes up, I am afraid that the nine cows will not be able to pull it back, and no matter how much it is entangled, there will be no better results, it will only make the other party more disgusted with himself.
In desperation, Liu Xiu had to get up and arch his hand and said: "Mr. Zhao, whether you believe it or not, the younger generation is really illiterate and really came to study, I hope to forgive me for the trouble, the younger generation has resigned."
Saying that, Liu Xiu shook his head and turned to leave, since people decided that he didn't drill the horns, anyway, in addition to him, Zhao Wangshan and Liu Xiu could also find someone else to learn to read.
This old man's temper is too weird......
Zhao Wangshan looked at Liu Xiu's departing back, his eyes flickered, and he said in his heart, could he really blame the other party? However, the words have already been spoken, and it is not good for him to continue to leave Liu Xiu, besides, seeing that Liu Xiu is not very old, why not go to the school if he wants to be literate? There must have been some other purpose in coming specifically to yourself, well, it must have been like this......
Standing at the gate of Zhao Wangshan's courtyard, Liu Xiu looked at the sunset and scratched his head, since this road is impassable, then who should I go to learn to read?
He didn't have the idea of being angry with Zhao Wangshan, after all, this kind of thing pays attention to a person who is willing to do it, and people are not obliged to teach themselves, Liu Xiu is not the kind of person who thinks that people all over the world have to revolve around him, and he can't find someone else here, I can't eat a pig with hair without you Zhao Butcher?
Let's go and exchange the silver thread for money, and then find a place to settle down before making plans.
With a decision, Liu Xiu strode away.
But before he could take a few steps, several people quickly walked towards him, and the first person was Liu Qingqing, who was dressed in white.
At this time, Liu Qingqing's complexion was not good, and her footsteps hurriedly walked towards Liu Xiu, and the people behind her were still carrying large bags and small bags, and they didn't know what they were holding.
Seeing Liu Xiu, Liu Qingqing was slightly stunned, nodded out of politeness and said hello: "Liu Gongzi is well"
"It turned out to be Miss Liu, ...... are you?" Liu Xiu wondered.
Grudgingly smiled, Liu Qingqing said: "Liu Gongzi, forgive me, I still have something to do here, so don't pass it first, the rude place is Wanwang Haihan."
Saying that, Liu Qingqing and Liu Xiu passed by, and then hurriedly walked towards Zhao Wangshan's residence.
Glancing at their backs, Liu Xiu quickly remembered Zhao Wangshan's words before, it seems that the Liu family has really reached a very dangerous level, otherwise he should not have rushed to the doctor to find Zhao Wangshan.
Thinking like this in his heart, Liu Xiu turned around and wanted to leave, but the next moment he paused, glanced at Zhao Wangshan's residence again, and said to himself with a strange face: "This old Mr. Zhao is not simple, if Liu Qingqing can really get through this road, I'm afraid her Liu family's problem is really not a problem!" ”
At that moment, that is, when Liu Qingqing and the others went to the door, Liu Xiu keenly captured a different aura in that small courtyard that was fleeting......
