The king of Zhenbei and the queen mother who had just entered the door: "......"

When Fang Wanjin's mother saw them, she looked at them first, and then rushed forward angrily, pointing at Yan Du and saying angrily: "You are the new Mr. Teacher, you are as unreasonable as that old man Bai, and you are misleading!" ”

Yan Du laughed, "How do you say that?" ”

"Why do students study?"

"Naturally, it is knowledgeable, wise, and knowledgeable."

"Wrong, it's for the imperial examination!"

Yan Du was silent, he couldn't deny that this was indeed the goal of many students who had been studying hard for years.

Fang's mother and Fang Wanjin are really mother and son, and they look very similar when they are angry, snorting, "What about my son, even if he is rich and rich, can he take the imperial examination?" ”

Seeing that Yan Du didn't speak, she looked at Liu Yunxiang again and asked again, "Can my son take the imperial examination?" ”

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "For now, it really can't." ”

"That's it, since you can't take the imperial examination, why do you still want to accept him, and let him be able to be an official and realize those lofty ideals?"

"I don't want my son to be the second Xu Jingyu, I just want my son to learn business with his father."

"So, please fire him and let him go home!"

Fang's mother clasped her hands together and begged Liu Yunxiang and the others earnestly.

"Mother!"

Fang Wanjin hurriedly jumped down from the tree, wanting to pull his mother out first, but was caught by his mother, and it was a fist when he went up. Fang Wanjin screamed in pain, but he still didn't let go.

"Are you going to drop out? Can't go home? ”

"No retreat! Don't go back! ”

"Your father said, if you don't go back, he will cut off the father-son relationship with you!"

"It's been eight hundred years."

"Rabbit cub, don't you feel sorry for your mother?"

"You've gained ten pounds again, haven't you?"

Fang's mother was so angry that she almost rolled her eyes, but Liu Yunxiang went up and patted Fang Wanjin's head, so he didn't jump.

"You should go home with your mother first."

"Master......" Fang Wanjin's eyes reddened, "You don't want me anymore?" ”

Liu Yunxiang was speechless, "I'm asking you to go home and have a good talk with your parents." ”

can't catch him, his mother will never give up, Fang Wanjin has no choice but to go down the mountain with his mother.

Seeing the mother and son leave, Liu Yunxiang whispered: "Can't you really change the law?" ”

Yan Duan turned his head to look at Liu Yunxiang, "This is a big deal, and it involves a lot of things, even if we have this determination, it will not happen overnight." ”

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "I know, I know." ”

So she has been quite helpless these days, while feeling sorry for these students, and racking her brains to find a way but can't think of a perfect solution.

The next day of class, Xie Si did not come back.

On the third day, Xie Si had not returned.

Liu Yunxiang realized something, called Zhuzi out, and asked him to take her to Xie Si's house.

The two went down the mountain early in the morning, rented a carriage at the bottom of the mountain, and after a bumpy ride for almost an hour, they finally came to the village where Xie Si's house was.

Bamboo helped Liu Yunxiang get out of the carriage and led her to Xie Si's house.

"My family is from the next village, and in the past, when the academy was on vacation, Xie Si and I would go home together." Bamboo said and pointed to the house at the end of the dirt road, "No, that's Xie Si's house." ”

The house was dilapidated, and the wall facing the street had fallen down, and it had not been rebuilt. As they walked inside, they saw a middle-aged man with a big waist and a round waist leading Xie Si out of it.

And Xie Si was against his head, his steps were heavy, and he was carrying a thin soft back on his back.

At this time, a woman chased out, "Master Liu, this child is thin-skinned and doesn't like to talk, please take care of it." ”

The middle-aged man sighed and said: "I am friends with your Lao Xie, and I should take care of his son, but when I think that Lao Xie is still alive, he always tells me how his son studies well, and he will be a big official in the future, and now I am an apprentice and a cook, I feel pity." ”

The woman's eyes reddened, "It's useless to blame me." ”

"Sister-in-law, don't say that, it's not easy for you."

The woman looked at her son again, still a little hesitant, "Si'er, have you really decided?" Not going back to college? ”

Xie Si lowered his head and was silent for a long time, but still nodded, "If you don't go back, it's useless to read." ”

Hearing this, Liu Yunxiang's brows furrowed, Xie Si has given up studying and wants to be a cook!

She hurriedly stepped forward and blocked their way, "Xie Si, you can't give up!" ”

"Yes, Xie Si, you've been holding on for so long, you can't give up at this juncture!" Bamboo also persuaded.

Xie Si glanced up at them, because his eyes were full of tears, he hurriedly lowered his head to cover up, "The academy is not qualified to recommend students to participate in the township examination, has the master forgotten?" ”

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips, "My husband and I will find a way, although we can't catch up with the township test this time, but Enke in the spring will definitely be able to." ”

"The qualifications of our academy were cancelled by the Yangzhou government, and the master and Mr. are just ordinary people, what can you do."

"The qualification of the academy was revoked by the Yangzhou government? Because of what? ”

Xie Si sulked his head: "Mid-levels Academy has long ceased to exist, and playing the flower list is my last chance, I am not selected, so there is no need to study again." ”

"Xie Si ......"

"Master, I'm not young, and I should make a living to support my mother and grandmother."

"At least until the beginning of next spring."

Xie Si shook his head: "I can wait, my grandmother can't wait, I'm sorry, please bring the student's apology to Mr." ”

After speaking, Xie Si urged Master Liu to take him away.

Liu Yunxiang wanted to persuade Xie Si again, but Mid-Levels Academy really didn't even have the qualifications to recommend students to participate in the township examination, and no amount of assurance was empty talk.

"Si'er mentioned you and Mr. Yan to me, saying that you two are good people like Mr. Bai." It was Mother Xie who said this, and she bent down to make a big salute to Liu Yunxiang.

"Get up, you can't do this." Liu Yunxiang hurriedly helped Xie Mu up.

Mother Xie looked in the direction her son left and said, "His grandmother is sick and needs to take medicine, but where does the money come from?" I couldn't stand it alone, Si'er felt sorry for me, so I decided to be an apprentice with Master Liu. ”

I see.

Liu Yunxiang took out a silver ingot from her purse and gave it to Xie's mother, but Xie's mother refused to ask for it, but she still stuffed it into Xie's mother's hand.

"See the elderly first, don't let Xie Si feel guilty for the rest of his life. As for returning to the academy, I would like to ask you to persuade Xie Si again. ”

Back at the academy, Liu Yunxiang told Yan Du about Xie Si.

Yan Du spread his hands: "Today, two students told me that they want to quit school, and if it goes on like this, there is no need to wait until half a year later, and in another ten days and half a month, there will be no students in this academy." ”

"First of all, it is necessary to restore the qualifications of Mid-Levels Academy to recommend students to participate in the township examination, the source is in Yangzhou Mansion, but I don't know what happened in the middle."

Yan Du thought for a while, "I'll go to the county government early tomorrow morning." ”
