Chapter 117: The old patriarch knelt down
As a teacher of Luyang Academy, during this time, I don't know how many people have walked through his door, and have used various means to send their own children and nephews to Luyang Academy through him.
After all, there is a teaching and learning with the status of a person, and the status of Luyang Academy is quite high.
As long as he opens his mouth, it is not difficult to send his own children and nephews to Luyang Academy.
But having said that, if it is put on someone else, this thing is easier to do.
As long as the money is stuffed enough, the favors are enough.
The teacher's promise to this matter is just a convenient thing.
For some, though, it's a violation of their principles.
It's also their bottom line.
Teach and educate people, and cultivate pillars for the country.
This is the common ideal of such people, and it is also their persistence.
After all, many academies were stuffed with some stubborn Second Ancestors, which eventually led to the corruption of the "discipline" of the academy.
The last "pillar" has not been cultivated, but there are a lot of scum.
For some idealists, this is absolutely unacceptable.
Coincidentally, Li Baichong, who has no hope for a career in office, is exactly this kind of person.
Otherwise, with his talents, he will not be a great official.
It is more than enough to be a county commander and a prefect.
However, although Li Baichong understands some things, this does not mean that he will be in the same league as some people.
It was because he didn't have a good relationship, and in the end he could only go home to teach.
Even if he was teaching, Li Baichong still did not give up his persistence.
"Tinghui is the seed of a scholar and the hope of Huangjia Village!"
"He's also capable and capable!"
"A few days ago, when the county lord was having fun with the people in Kumho, there was a problem that all the scholars couldn't solve!"
"Only Brother Hui untied it in a moment!"
"With such talent, if he continues to wander in Huangjia Village, he will really bury him!"
"If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have brought him to you!"
The old patriarch looked at his cousin with a look of hope, and he hoped to get an accurate answer from his cousin's mouth.
"Huang Tinghui?"
"Yes, that's the name!"
"Huang Tinghui, I remember, you solved an arithmetic problem at that time, and got a lantern rewarded by the county lord."
"It's really a hero out of a teenager, I didn't expect you to be so young!"
"It's really good that Huangjiacun can produce such a rising star as you!"
Li Baichong stroked his beard, and he said to Huang Tinghui with a smile.
"Cousin, what do you see here?"
"Brother Hui is a seed of reading, no matter what, you can't bury it!"
The old patriarch said with some eagerness.
"Mingzhang, you're embarrassing me!"
"In Luyang Academy, I would never open the back door to let a student enter directly!"
"If it spreads, how will I, Li Baichong, be seen by the world?"
Li Baichong sighed, he picked up the teacup in his hand and took a sip, he said slowly to the old patriarch.
But as soon as this sentence came out, the old patriarch would have the wrong meaning.
He hurriedly took out a package and placed it on the table.
The package was filled with heavy copper coins, and the old patriarch opened the package, and the copper coins strung together inside even had oil stains.
These coins appear neatly on the table.
Although the money is not much, what it brings to Huang Tinghui is an impact from the inside out, from the heart.
Huang Tinghui didn't expect that the old patriarch would actually do this for himself.
Others don't know, how can Huang Tinghui not know.
The big guys all said that the old patriarch had saved a sum of money, as for how much money it was.
No one knows.
Uncle Erzhu is a good thing, and once inquired.
But he was knocked on the head by the old patriarch, and the old patriarch told him that it was a package of copper coins strung together.
It's his coffin book!
When he dies, he will have to be put in a good coffin.
It's also comfortable to lie in.
At that time, when these words came out, everyone also laughed.
Huang Tinghui was present and smiled when he heard it.
Some people say that the old patriarch is reluctant to eat or wear on weekdays.
But he has to wait until he dies and get himself a good coffin.
However, at this time, the strings of copper coins on the desktop brought Huang Tinghui an incomparable visual impact.
brought Huang Tinghui an incomparable spiritual impact.
These are the coffins of the old patriarch!
It's all owned by the old patriarch!
Tears blurred Huang Tinghui's eyes, and he looked at the white-haired old patriarch.
Seeing that the old patriarch was trying his best to win a place for himself to study, tears were about to fall.
"Mingzhang, you're making it difficult for me!"
"If you can do it, how can you take your money as a brother?"
"It's just this......"
Although Li Baichong had feelings for the old patriarch, this matter touched Li Baichong's principles.
This made Li Baichong feel very embarrassed.
"Isn't it enough?"
"And these, some souvenirs, all of which you liked when you were a child!"
"I really don't have anything else to do with it, that's all!"
"Cousin, for my sake, let this baby go to school!"
"As long as he can go to school and go to your Luyang Academy, he will definitely not be bad!"
"Brother Hui, don't say anything else, his head is smart!"
"Definitely the future pillar of the country!" The old patriarch was a little excited, and he took Li Baichong's hand and said.
Even the voice was shaking.
"Name Badge!!" Li Baichong said helplessly.
His heart was as solid as a rock, even though the old patriarch begged him so.
There are some issues of principle, and he still doesn't want to break through.
"Mingzhang, you have to know my difficulties!"
"Before you, many people asked for my name!"
"But I refused, I can't ruin the discipline of Luyang Academy because of personal friendship!"
"I can't let others see it, it turns out that as long as you enter this Luyang Academy, you only need to have enough favors!"
"Mingzhang, don't say it!" Li Baichong bluntly refused.
But what Li Baichong didn't expect was that the next scene not only shocked him.
also made Huang Tinghui's heart skip a half-beat.
"Plop!" The old patriarch knelt down in front of Li Baichong.
He took Li Baichong's hand and said, "Cousin, I have never begged you in my life, and I have never wanted you to help me with anything!" ”
"I only want you to see it for my sake, for the sake of our friendship for many years."
"Let this baby have a chance to go to Luyang Academy!"
"Cousin!"
"Name, please!"
No one expected that the old patriarch would kneel down in front of Li Baichong like this.
In order to allow Huang Tinghui to have the opportunity to go to Luyang Academy.
The old patriarch gave everything.
Including their own dignity.
