The next day, before dawn, Xu Huaiyi finished eating and hurried to the academy, Wei Liang drove a mule cart to see him off, and the cart was stacked with a pile of down clothes.

He didn't have time to explain to Village Chief Xu and the others, so he could only say that Gu Huanxi had discussed it last night, and the other people in Xujia Village had arrived in the capital, so they didn't talk about it for the time being, but only tactfully urged the progress of building the house, and when those people came up, their temperament was smoothed out, and the house was there, so there would naturally be a lot less trouble.

After Gu Huanxi sent Xiaoyu to class, he pushed Ah Li to find Xu Maoyuan, first asked about the house casually, and then implicitly reminded him that it was best to speed up.

Xu Maoyuan didn't hear anything wrong, but he was afraid that after the snow, the work would be more difficult, so he was in a hurry to finish it, so he happily responded and went to the village to find some people to help.

However, there are not many that can be found, after the situation of the victims has stabilized recently, many diligent people have begun to set up stalls again, the weather is cold, and it is definitely sinful to set up stalls outside, but they can also earn at least 100 yuan a day, which is still very attractive to the villagers.

After reminding here, Gu Huanxi went to the workshop again, a few days ago, Shui Yunxuan under Su Zhe's name launched a new hot pot, which was an instant hit in the capital, the spicy bottom of the pot, no matter what you put in it, it was delicious, and the dipping sauce was even more delicious.

The side dishes with it also quickly became popular, such as dried tofu and spicy strips, which can be packed and taken away, for a while, the supply exceeded demand, the orders of the workshop skyrocketed, and the villagers who came to work had to work overtime.

Of course, the overtime pay is also doubled, so the villagers are tired and happy, wearing the stars and the moon every day, and finally have to divide into two shifts to come backwards, otherwise after a long time, they will have to be tired and have problems.

Village Chief Xu wanted to hire more people, but there were no suitable people in the village, so Gu Huanxi temporarily dispatched more than a dozen people from Zhuangzi to help.

She thought that those people in Xujia Village might come up in a few days, and according to the temperament of Village Chief Xu, she had to arrange a few, and by then, there would be no shortage of people.

I just don't know when they'll find out.

Xu Huaiyi arrived at the academy, and he was also thinking about this in his free time, if it weren't for today's monthly exam, he would have wanted to go to the resettlement site of the new village for the disaster victims.

Li Yunting saw that he was absent-minded and asked, "What's wrong?" Something at home? ”

Xu Huaiyi shook his head, looked at the riding and archery exam that was going on on the martial arts field, and said seriously, "I'm thinking, it's appropriate to take the exam today." ”

Li Yunting raised his eyebrows, "You can still control the ranking?" ”

Xu Huaiyi smiled and asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”

Li Yunting was puzzled, "Why do you want to consider rankings?" Don't you want to be the first? ”

Xu Huaiyi said in a low voice, "I've been in the limelight enough now, I don't want to attract more attention, I can't be alone in all the good things, right?" That must not be hated! ”

Li Yunting said, "It's mediocre not to be envied, if you stand tall enough, no one will be jealous, they will only look up, worship, and follow." ”

Xu Huaiyi sighed helplessly, "But I just don't stand high enough, my background is there, I can't climb up for a while, it's better to be honest." ”

Hearing this, Li Yunting was silent, and then said, "I think even if you have a sharp edge, I'm afraid it's useless." ”

"Huh?"

"You have been remembered by them, even if you pretend to be stupid, it is estimated that few people will believe it, it is better to be yourself."

“……”

Xu Huaiyi listened to his words, and was a little entangled at first, but later when it was his turn to play, he didn't care about it, because the strength of his classmates was much longer than when he entered the school, and besides, the ranking of the monthly exam was also related to the reward, so everyone tried their best to compete, which made him no longer dare to take it lightly, and he didn't dare to hide it too much.

In the end, he won a third place, which was not very eye-catching, but it was not bad, which met his psychological expectations.

After the exam, I was tired and sweaty, the college had a special bathhouse, and everyone shouted to go together, but Xu Huaiyi was left alone by Sun Yu to speak.

"Did you use all your strength for today's exam?"

Xu Huaiyi pondered, "Ninety percent." ”

Sun Yu raised his eyebrows, "Ninety? ”

Xu Huaiyi nodded sincerely, in fact, it was eighty percent, but he kept a few points, and he couldn't let people see too thoroughly, so there would be no hole cards.

Sun Yu asked again, "Why don't you do your best?" Maybe you can fight for the first place, and the third result is not bad, but compared to the first place, it is also a world of difference. ”

Usually people are impressed by the first place, followed by the second, and when it is the turn of the third, most of the time they don't pay much attention.

Xu Huaiyi said with a smile, "Master, the disciple doesn't want to be too prominent, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, a few days ago, I was so high-profile, I should be more peaceful now, so as not to provoke you to cause trouble." ”

Sun Yu was pleased, "If you can think of this and still be able to do it, you are already far ahead of your peers, and you don't know what to teach you in the future." ”

I feel that the disciples are more transparent than him.

Xu Huaiyi said, "There are many things you can teach your disciples, such as archery, martial arts, and light skills, and your disciples especially want to learn this ......."

Ancient light skills, flying eaves and walking on walls, stepping on snow without traces, can be called a sharp weapon, no matter how tired, you must learn.

Sun Yu frowned slightly, "You're learning light skills now, it's a little late......"

Xu Huaiyi hurriedly said, "It's not too late, it's not too late, diligence can make up for clumsiness, disciples are not afraid of hardships, and the master only disciplines." ”

Sun Yu smiled, "You want to learn so much?" ”

Xu Huaiyi nodded vigorously.

Sun Yu said, "Okay, go back to the teacher and teach you the internal skills of your own door first, and after you are proficient, you can get twice the result with half the effort by learning light skills." ”

"Thank you, master!" Xu Huaiyi hurriedly saluted, thanked him, and then said, "The disciple went home last night and brought some things, and I also have a copy from the master, why don't you bring them to you now?" ”

Sun Yu asked curiously, "What is it?" ”

Xu Huaiyi sold Guanzi, "You'll know if you see it." ”

Sun Yu raised his chin, "Let's go, I'll go to the bedroom with you for the teacher to get it." ”

The two went to the bedroom one after the other, and when Sun Yu saw the clothes stacked on the bed, he said unexpectedly, "Send the master's clothes?" ”

Isn't that unusual?

Xu Huaiyi shook off his body and handed it to him, "You touch it first." ”

Sun Yu touched it, but still didn't find anything special, and then joked, "This cotton coat feels very light and thin, can it keep warm?" Are you reluctant to give more silk to the teacher? ”

"How can it? You might as well put it on and try it out. ”

Sun Yu raised his eyebrows, but he also cooperated, neatly took off the brocade robe outside, and put on the cotton jacket handed over by Xu Huaiyi, as soon as he got on, he was stunned, "This is not silk cotton?" ”

"Hehe, of course not, if it's an ordinary silk cotton, how dare the disciple let you go this way?"

"What's there?"

"Down, duck down to be exact, isn't it light and warm? Wearing it, you are not afraid of the wind and snow when you go out, and you are not so clumsy when you practice martial arts, isn't it very exciting? ”

Sun Yu made a few moves at random, and after feeling its benefits, he nodded with a smile, "Yes, eiderdown, you came up with this kind of idea." ”

"It's good if you're satisfied."

"Satisfied, satisfied......" he said, staring at the tall stack on the bed.

Seeing this, Xu Huaiyi immediately said, "Master, that's for Li Yunting." ”

"Just give the master a body?"

"How can it? When you are waiting for the apprentice, the disciple will honor you for a car. ”
