6 Chapter VI

Cheng Zi'an turned around, only to see a flash in front of him, an angry bear pounced forward, stretched out his hand to wrap around his neck, and grinned: "Okay Cheng Zi'an, yesterday you left, I was left by Mr. Zhou, and I was beaten by Daddy when I went back!" ”

"Ouch!" The bookcase rummaged and touched Zhang Qi's buttocks, he hurriedly let go of Cheng Zi'an, stretched out his hand to cover his wail, and twisted his hip to bump him.

Mengtong often fights, and the students pass by in twos and threes, or in a hurry, or laughing with each other. The teenagers were like morning dew, more lively than them, and no one noticed them.

Cheng Zi'an saw that he was a difficult brother, so he laughed dryly and said, "I was also beaten by Daddy." ”

Zhang Qi was instantly soothed, his face was smiled, and he didn't call anymore, and replaced it with a good intimacy between the brothers: "Daddy is the most annoying, forcing us to read and read all day long." I secretly heard my mother say that my father was not good at reading, and he took the exam for many years, but he failed to get into the spring school. Otherwise, how can he just be a small official of the yamen? ”

Cheng Zi'an wanted to laugh, Zhang Qi didn't understand genetics, but he almost hit it right and correctly blamed his father's genes for his poor academic performance.

didn't have time to talk to Zhang Qi, Cheng Zi'an asked about business: "When did you go back last night?" What about Fang Yin? ”

Zhang Qi said: "Fang Yin was called out by Mr. Zhou to speak, I didn't hear what they said, and then Mr. Lu sent him home." Hehe, Fang Yin's clothes are gone, there are many mosquitoes at night, he is miserable! ”

Cheng Zi'an breathed a sigh of relief, just like he thought, Mr. Zhou asked Fang Yin to go, just to comfort him.

At this time, Zhang Qi pulled Cheng Zi'an, pointed to the middle-aged man in brocade shirt who passed by, and said: "That person is Xin Da, the steward of Xin Jinian's family, and it is almost the Dragon Boat Festival, so I came to give gifts to the gentlemen at this time?" ”

Fuxue provides pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and there is no need to tie it. But during the Chinese New Year, the students will give gifts to their husbands, according to their own family background, rich and thrifty.

When Cheng Zi'an was still ill, Cui Suniang had already prepared a festival gift and sent it to her husband by Cheng Zhen in person.

Boxing ceremonies include Dragon Boat Festival seasonal food, various flavors of zongzi, salted duck eggs, rice wine, large yellow croaker, plus a fine silk, a set of four treasures of the study.

Cheng Zi'an heard Cui Suniang sigh that the Dragon Boat Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival and the winter solstice in the New Year, the festival gifts of the Dragon Boat Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival are still good, and the winter solstice and the New Year will be more valuable.

Students studying in private schools, in addition to having to bind their husbands, New Year's etiquette is also indispensable. They will give less, a piece of meat, a basket of eggs, the gift is light and affectionate, but the gift is indispensable.

Xin Da carried a package in his hand and walked easily. Cheng Zi thought with peace of mind, no matter how arrogant the Xin family was, he would not come to give gifts at this time.

Unless, his package contains gold ingots.

Cheng Zi'an guessed that Xin Jinian bullied Fang Yin yesterday, and Mr. Zhou informed the Xin family. Sending a servant to deal with the matter has already given enough face.

Zhang Qi came to the end, and gossiped: "Fang Yin is really lucky to be able to go to the house to study." His family was so poor that they couldn't even afford books. ”

For poor students, the biggest expenditure is not in the bundle of pens, ink, paper, and inkstones, but in books.

The book "Spring and Autumn" alone has more than 30 volumes. Each volume is more than two taels of silver. If it's a celebrity endorsement, it's even more ridiculously expensive.

Cui Suniang saw Cheng Zi'an's book scrolling, and she rarely lowered her face to criticize him: "Why are you not good at loving books, many poor students rely on copying books to learn." Transcription is difficult, the pen and ink must be good, and the paper should not be bad, otherwise if you turn it several times, the words will be confused, and the paper will be broken. ”

To sum it up: it is not easy for the poor to read.

Mr. Zhou hurriedly walked over and greeted Xin Da, and the two bowed their hands and walked to the prison with a smile.

Zhang Qi was stretching his neck to watch the excitement, and Mr. Zhou suddenly turned his head as if he had eyes on the back of his head, glared at them and said, "Why don't you hurry up and go to the classroom, don't play outside!" ”

Zhang Qi shrunk his neck, pulled Cheng Zi'an to run in the direction of Mengtongyuan with his little short legs, and when Mr. Zhou and Xin Da walked out of sight, he immediately slowed down his pace, shook his hand and kicked the flowers and stones on the side of the road, and walked unhurriedly.

When he arrived at the gate of Mengtong's Hospital, Fang Yin walked out of it, Zhang Qi looked him up and down, grinned, and said, "Yo, I'm wearing a new shirt!" ”

Fang Yin wore a new blue muslin shirt, the new shirt was plain, and there was no embroidery on the neckline and hem, it seemed that his aunt rushed out overnight.

Hearing the mockery in Zhang Qi's words, Fang Yin peeked at Cheng Zi'an, his little face turned white, and he pursed his lips without saying a word.

Cheng Zi'an smiled and nodded to greet him. Fang Yin seemed stunned and wanted to return the salute, but Cheng Zi'an had already pulled Zhang Qi and walked in.

Zhang Qi complained in displeasure: "It's still early, when did you become so diligent?" ”

Cheng Zi'an didn't pay attention to Zhang Qi, Fang Yin is small, and he also has a little self-esteem.

Cheng Zhen is his benefactor, and Cheng Zi is a natural pressure for him.

A little kindness is enough, there is no need to add embarrassment to him, they are not all the way now, and the class is not so easy to cross.

Half of the class was already there, and the gentleman hadn't arrived yet, and there was a lot of buzz inside, discussing exam results, the upcoming holidays.

Cheng Zi'an put down the bookcase, it's one thing to learn or not, he still has a sense of ceremony, and he places the textbooks neatly.

Xin Jinian soon arrived, and threw the bookcase on the desk at random, making a clanging sound. His bookcase is precious, and the vines are woven into auspicious patterns, exuding a lustrous luster.

Pulling the stool, the case, Xin Jinian tossed over, and when Mr. Zhou stepped into the door, he finally stopped.

Fang Yin also followed Mr. Zhou into the classroom, he lowered his head, couldn't see the look on his face clearly, and silently walked to his seat and sat down.

"Hundred Family Names" does not take the imperial examination, but it is very important in the Mengtong class, after all, this is a common sense subject. After they have finished their studies, Mr. Zhou will continue to teach the collection of scriptures and yi.

When exams are announced and results are released after exams, there is always a lot of activity in class. A few families are happy and a few are sad, those who do well in the exam are happy, and those who do poorly are depressed.

Not surprisingly, Fang Yin still came out on top.

Zhang Qi had already learned in advance that he had done poorly in the exam, and releasing his results was tantamount to causing him a second injury.

Especially when he heard that Cheng Zi'an, who was called a Sleeping Dragon and a young phoenix with himself, jumped to the middle of the class in this exam, leaving him far behind.

The secondary injury was aggravated, and Zhang Qi used resentful eyes to slash Cheng Zi'an from time to time.

Xin Jinian also felt very unhappy, his neck was full of meat, and because he frequently turned his head, he twisted out of the terraced level, and stared at Cheng Zi'an with a complicated expression.

As a senior scumbag, he can get good results in the exam, Cheng Zi'an smiled so much that his face was sour. Zhang Qi and Xin Jinian's attitudes didn't affect him at all.

Hearing that Cheng Zi'an actually got a full score in arithmetic, Xin Jinian couldn't sit still.

Usually they take the arithmetic exam, and one of the three of them counts one, and ten fingers are not enough to break, but unfortunately they can't take off their shoes in class, and they can't break their toes.

Even if they count on their fingers, they may not be right.

Xin Jinian didn't dare to bully Cheng Zi'an like Fang Yin, he was still very active in upholding justice, he stood up on the ground and shouted: "Mr. Xu, Cheng Zi'an cheats!" ”

"That's right, Cheng Zi'an has never done well in arithmetic before."

"Could it be that the blind cat hit a dead mouse?"

"Arithmetic is the most difficult, and it's not easy to hit the right one."

"It must have been cheating."

The classmates in the class exchanged heads and ears with each other, and talked in low voices. The class was not big, and everyone could hear their talk clearly.

Xin Jinian won the support of others, his face was full of triumph, and he shouted solemnly: "Mr. Xu must severely punish Cheng Zi'an, with the atmosphere of the school!" ”

Ha? Cheng Zi'an blinked.

Mr. Xu, who teaches arithmetic, saw the commotion in the classroom, because the eyebrows were tightly twisted, and the left and right teachers were connected.
