9. It's winter again

The days go on in such a regular manner, although there are occasional waves, but most of them are caused by food. But for beggars, the hardest day is winter, but fortunately the winter has not been too cold in recent years, so they have to be lucky to get through it. But winter is winter after all, and in the year when Lu Yue listened to the class in that corner for five years, winter came much earlier and colder than in previous years. Because of the cold, Lu Yue set up a relatively hidden nest in that corner, but despite this, he was often shivering from the cold, and his little hands that were already full of frostbite still insisted on carving on the ground. Originally, Lu Yuexian thought that after listening to classes for a year, he shouldn't need to record that knowledge anymore. At the end of the semester of the first year, Lu Yuexian was already able to memorize all the knowledge of that year. However, Lu Yuexian found a problem in the second year, the courses taught in the second year were not the same as those taught in the first year. So Lu Yuexian had to live a life of portrayal again again. In the years that followed, there were occasional repetitions of the curriculum, but most of the courses were new. This winter, the lessons that could be heard in this corner were all things he had not been exposed to, so he began to depict everywhere again, but this winter was really too cold, and the little hands that kept carving were already covered with frostbite at this time, but he didn't dare to stop. At this time, he still clearly remembered a sentence he heard in this corner: knowledge is power, the power to change fate. He didn't understand why the teacher was saying that, but he believed what they said, because he was trying to change his own fate, the fate of his grandfather and uncle. Therefore, no matter how uncomfortable his hands were, he still persevered, wanting to engrave all the knowledge he had learned into his heart, and make it his own strength, the power to change his fate.

The night was approaching again, and the academy had already finished class, so Lu Yuexian stopped his portrayal and walked towards the small hut instead. Now the small thatched hut has been repaired by the three of them, and it can withstand a certain amount of wind and rain. For them, this place is their warm home. Lu Yuexian returned home and began to light a fire to boil water. For some reason, it's always so hard to get food every winter. As a result, his grandfather and uncle would always come back very late. In order to be able to bring them back to get warm, Lu Yuexian has become accustomed to going home early in the winter and preparing the fire and hot water, after all, the winter is the coldest at night. After preparing these, he did not continue to describe what he heard at Fenggu Academy today, but reviewed the words that Old Man Li had taught him according to his grandfather's request. Although he could hear what was being said about the lesson in the corner, the windowsill was so high that he couldn't see what was going on in the classroom, and he couldn't learn the words. When he told his grandfather about this problem one day, his grandfather inexplicably told him that he knew a little bit of words and could teach him. Old man Li didn't know much of the text, he only worked a little in a private school before he became a beggar, so he knew a little bit of words. However, for Lu Yuexie, it is already very good to be able to recognize these words. At the very least, he was able to put into words most of what he heard. After Lu Yuexian reviewed those words, she saw that they hadn't come back yet, and she didn't feel worried in her heart. In order to alleviate the anxiety in my heart, I reviewed the lesson I heard today. But when it was over, it was found that they still hadn't returned. They had never come back so late before, and Lu Yuexian began to worry about whether something had happened to them. He decided to go out and look for it, and when he was about to go out with some straw on his body, he heard their voices.

"Little Moon, we're back. The king hadn't seen it yet, but the voice had already come.

"Uncle, grandpa, why are you so late today? Yuexian is very worried about you!" Lu Yuexian heard this voice, but his heart was a lot more relaxed.

"Isn't it coming back, we are late for more things. They had already entered the house at this time, and seeing Lu Yue's worried face, Old Man Li comforted him. And Wang Da came directly to the boiling pot and put the food in his arms into the pot little by little to cook. Soon, the smell of food wafted through the house. The three of them gathered around the fire and each filled some food and ate it. After saving a little food for tomorrow, they talked about the day's experiences. But it was mainly Lu Yuexian who was talking about the lessons he had heard throughout the day. Then, it was Old Man Li who taught Lu Yuexian some new characters he had discovered in the process of begging. In addition to begging for food, the current old man Li will also learn the unknown characters he found in the process of begging and teach them to Lu Yuexian. However, Old Man Li's approach was not less ridiculed by people, and Old Man Li was either scolded in the process of asking people, driving him away like a fly, or being scolded for "breaking a beggar and learning to write, sick!", and after some ridicule, he ignored it and left. However, there are still some kind-hearted people, so Old Man Li can bring some newly recognized words to Lu Yuexian every day. And Lu Yuexian will also encounter the words that cannot be written in the process of listening to the class and ask Old Man Li, and Old Man Li will ask those people in student clothes during the begging process the next day, and after encountering many cold eyes, he can also tell Lu Yuexian the answer the next night. In this way, as time went by, Lu Yuexi's obstacles to listening to lectures caused by words became less and less, and the relevant course notes began to be more and more complete. It's a pity that this note can only be kept for a short time, and there is only a little empty space, and Lu Yuexian still has to save some space for notes for the next day. However, because of this, Lu Yuexian's memory is getting better and better, because he has to completely memorize all the knowledge he heard the day before in his mind the next day. Of course, this situation will invisibly exercise his excellent memory.

After learning the words, they spread out the straw and fell asleep one after another. It's just that Lu Yuexiao couldn't sleep tonight, because his grandfather Li had been coughing more and more recently, especially tonight, Lu Yuexiao could obviously feel the pain of his forced cough. The cold of winter makes them sleep together every night, relying on each other's bodies to get more temperature. How could Old Man Li hide the convulsions caused by his cough, and the convulsions again and again made Lu Yuexian very uncomfortable. Finally, Lu Yuexian said a little uncomfortable: "Grandpa, cough it out!" Old man Li just touched Lu Yuexian's head with his hand, only to hear him say: "Grandpa is fine, go to sleep, you still have to listen to class tomorrow morning." ”

Early the next morning, Old Man Li and Wang Da went out early, and they didn't bother Lu Yuexian. After Lu Yuexian woke up today, he didn't immediately get up and go to the corner of the academy, but sat quietly, looking at a trace of blood on the straw in a daze. In the past five years, there had been a medical class in that corner, and according to some of the things he heard, Lu Yuexian guessed a possibility, and his heart trembled a little uncontrollably. Having experienced the pain of the loss of a loved one, he did not want to endure this heartache again. But although he knew that there was a possibility, he didn't know how to do it with just a little knowledge of the curriculum.

The day passed quickly, and Lu Yuexie, who had never stopped attending classes for five years, did not attend the lecture for the first time today. At night, he still set up a pot and lit a fire, waiting for their arrival. This night they were much later than yesterday, and at the same time, his Uncle Wang was also different from last night, his face was a little red and swollen, and he was still supported by his Grandpa Li to go home. Seeing this, Lu Yuexian immediately greeted him and asked anxiously, "Uncle, what's wrong with you?" Ten-year-old Lu Yuexian also had some strength, and supported Wang Da with Old Man Li. Wang Da was panting and said to Lu Yuexian beside him: "It's okay, I just fell, I just fell." Old man Li, it doesn't matter if you say it's not. The old man Li on the side looked at this big man Wang who was no longer so honest, and comforted Lu Yue and said, "Well, it's okay, your Uncle Wang is fine." In order to divert Lu Yuexie's attention, Old Man Li instead asked Lu Yuexian about the content of today's lecture. However, Lu Yuexian was a little hesitant and didn't know how to answer. Seeing this situation, Old Man Li asked with a gloomy face, "You didn't go to class today?" Lu Yue tilted her head and let out a timid "um".

"Why are you so ignorant, why don't you go to the class, do you want to be like us, begging for a lifetime? Being looked down upon by others all your life, beaten and abused at will?" even pushed Lu Yuexian away and didn't let him support him.

"I ...... I ......" Lu Yuexian wanted to say something, but some words didn't know how to say.

"Yuexi, grandpa is very disappointed in you, very disappointed. As he spoke, Old Man Li sat by the fire alone with Wang Da.

Seeing his beloved two people treating him like this, Lu Yuexian couldn't bear it, so he only heard him say loudly: "I know, I know, but, grandpa, I got up this morning and saw the blood you coughed up last night, grandpa, you ...... You ......" Lu Yuexian couldn't say any more, so she directly put the food mixed with soil that she had just picked up into the pot.

Hearing Lu Yuexian say this, Old Man Li was also a little stunned, and then sighed: "Yuexian, grandpa is fine, grandpa still wants you to take me to enjoy Qingfu!" Although he said this, he knew that he would never be able to wait for that day. But he continued: "If you were like this, your grandfather and your uncle would never have had a chance to enjoy a little peace." You can't do this next time, you know? Yuexi, you tell me that you will never be like this again in the future, okay?"

Holding back the urge to cry, Lu Yuexian nodded hard, and said in an oathed tone: "Grandpa, uncle, I will definitely go to the class tomorrow, I will always listen carefully to the class, and I will not let you worry about it again." ...... by all means."
