08 Reading aloud

In front of the private school, the fat aunt swept the floor leisurely, looking up at the butcher shop from time to time, and there seemed to be autumn waves in her eyes. Lao Bai was originally holding a fly swatter, crossing Erlang's legs, humming a little song in his mouth, looking at it complacently, the fat aunt took a look, and was so frightened that she quickly stood up and had nothing to do to sharpen her knife.

Old Wu smiled but did not speak.

Xu Tianran tugged at Lao Bai's sleeve, "Lao Bai, the fat aunt is really interesting to you." ”

Lao Wu nodded, "Old man Bai, Liu Yingying is interesting to you." ”

Lao Bai suddenly sweated profusely, "Old Wu Tou, you are also following the little cub to coax blindly, disrespecting the old man." ”

Lao Wu smiled and said: "A lot of people are shy when they are old, Yingying is good." ”

When Lao Bai heard the word "Yingying", his head was big, but the fat aunt was still surnamed Liu, and the thick waist of the bucket had nothing to do with the thin waist of the willow branches. Lao Bai doesn't know why, in the past, Lao Wu was not a joker, a serious reader, why did a little cub come, and his character was led astray.

Lao Wu looked at the sad Lao Bai, who was happier than winning Lao Bai, "Lao Bai, women can't just look at their appearance, they must see the essence through the phenomenon, and see the beautiful soul of the fat aunt, which is more beautiful than a fairy." When we reach our realm, we are still clinging to our skins, and we have fallen behind. ”

Lao Bai sharpened his knife and was murderous, "Old Wutou, you like the beautiful soul of the fat aunt, why don't you take the fat aunt as a daughter-in-law, you have been a bachelor all your life, and it is very lonely to have no one to warm the bed at night." ”

Lao Wu still smiled and said: "The old man has the intention to kill the thief, but he can't lift a gun." ”

The young man who was drinking water sprayed a big mouthful of water, and a serious old master would also say something indecent, something was wrong in this world, a big problem.

Lao Wu was unmoved and continued: "We are powerless to read, the higher the knowledge, the worse the body, reading books to burn the body, unlike you who kill pigs have a lot of strength, every day without using your brain, the more you work, the stronger the body, look at it is a lot of age, to the bed can still turn over the clouds and rain." ”

Xu Tianran was completely subverted by Lao Wu's words, and when he listened to Lao Wu's words, he always felt that Lao Wu had something to say, and the readers had many eyes, just like "the power of the chicken" also seemed to be meaningful. Sure enough, no one can offend a scholar in this life, my mother is right, a scholar is not a lifelong grudge, even if the emperor offends a scholar, bad words are said in the history books, and it will be stinking for 10,000 years. The young man rolled his eyes, and then saw that the reader had to hide far away.

Lao Bai squinted at Lao Wu, "I'm here today just to talk about this bit of? There's nothing else to do." ”

Lao Wu glanced at the young man, and the young man was suddenly frozen, leaving only his eyes to glance at the old master, who was afraid that the sanctimonious master could support the boat when he saw the prime minister's belly, but in fact, he had a small belly and chicken intestines, and he would take revenge if he held a grudge. Didn't he just say that he was not highly educated, and when the time came, he couldn't stand it for himself to wear small shoes.

The old master clasped his fingers and gently tapped the melon seeds on the young man's head, the young man shrank his head, and the old master said unhurriedly: "Do you want to study?"

The boy took three steps back and shook his head vigorously like a rattle.

Lao Bai glanced at Lao Wu, "The little cub was found by me, count me as my person, you have to have the ability to teach him to press the bottom of the box, it's okay, now you have to dig an inch, dig the wall and dig thoroughly, and want to directly abduct all the people." ”

Lao Wu stroked his beard and said: "It's always right to read more, what else would you do besides teaching him to fight and kill?" While his young mind is undecided, read some sage books, and be a humble gentleman?"

Lao Bai pouted, "Just count the blackest hearts of scholars, my generation of martial artists serve the country with death, and many scholars mislead the country." ”

Lao Wu shook his head, "How many years have passed, and the knot in my heart still can't be untied." Martial artists fight the world, literati rule the world, both are indispensable, and lame walking will not go far after all. ”

Lao Bai was too lazy to listen to Lao Wu's nonsense, threw the knife, squatted on the threshold and smoked dry cigarettes, spitting smoke rings.

The boy also squatted on the threshold, looking at the elementary school on the opposite side of the bluestone road, and the sound of reading aloud echoed in the mountains, frightening the heavens.

Lao Wu also squeezed over, wanting to squat beside the young man, but the young man's ass moved to the side of Lao Bai, and was pushed back by Lao Bai's big buttocks, "The door is small, there is no place." ”

Lao Wu had no choice but to squat in the corner, a butcher, a master, a teenager, the sun warmly caressed the young man's cheeks, and the young man who had walked far away in the future missed the sunshine of that day and the narrow door of the shop.

Lao Wu looked at the young man sincerely, the young man was uncomfortable, and the master said gently: "Why don't you like to read?"

Xu Tianran thought for a while, "My mother said that only scholars are the most negative people in the world. I don't want to be a hypocrite who is hypocritical and peddles benevolence and morality everywhere, and I don't want to be a true gentleman who wants to die quickly. I want to be a swordsman, practice a good sword, see who is not happy to cut whom, and walk the rivers and lakes in the future to be happy and revenge. ”

As he spoke, the young man's eyes turned red, "The biggest wish in this life is to learn swords, go to my mother's grave to burn a stick of incense, and tell my mother that the revenge has been avenged, and the son is very good, so don't worry." If I marry a daughter-in-law in the future, I will take my daughter-in-law and children to my mother's grave every year, and let the children kowtow to my grandmother, and my mother will know that I am doing well and have no regrets in this life. ”

Moving, the young man's voice trembled, and people felt pity.

Lao Bai, spitting out smoke rings, remembered the gentle and beautiful woman when she handed over the child to herself, and her reluctant eyes were resolute and sad.

The corners of the master's eyes are moist, not like the iron-hearted old white, the master has always been sentimental, he understands the thoughts of the young man, saying that he doesn't want to study is false, but he doesn't want to delay the practice, every Qingming can only be trapped in the deep mountains in the depths of the clouds and looking at the direction of the mother's grave, and he doesn't even know if his mother has a grave, whether there are kind-hearted people to help his mother be buried, and he is not affected by the wilderness of violent corpses. Everything can only wait for oneself to succeed in cultivation, get out of the town, and walk the rivers and lakes before you can find the tomb of your mother. The little cub looks heartless day by day, but in fact, he is the most thoughtful. Lao Bai said that young people are born with the ability to perceive people's hearts and know good and evil.

Lao Wu touched the young man's head, "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, you have to go to the imperial examination to study, it is nothing more than to read more truth, and you will suffer less losses when you walk the rivers and lakes in the future." Besides, if you want to practice swords, most of the sword scores are obscure, if you go to the rivers and lakes in the future and get the sword book of a great sword immortal, but you can't understand it, wouldn't it be a big loss. ”

The young man blinked thoughtfully, "What Mr. said makes some sense, then I'll go study." ”

Lao Wu smiled slightly.

The young man bowed to his master, and his heart was sincere. The boy knows that Mr. is really good for him, and it is strange to say that since he is sensible, he can know whether others are kind or malicious to him, and he has an innate ability.

Lao Wu's figure disappeared in a flash, and he came in a flash, holding a small green bamboo bookcase in his hand, "Pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and books are all put inside, and Ming'er will carry it to the school." ”

Without waiting for the young man to thank him, Lao Wu disappeared without a trace, and the young man felt that Lao Wu might be crying, and he was tossed and cried by his poor life experience. The young man secretly swore in his heart that if he soared in the future, he would definitely treat Lao Wu like Lao Bai, and he would definitely not be better to Lao Wu than Lao Bai, and he could not be partial, otherwise he would be the most jealous when he looked at Lao Bai's five big and three coarse appearance. Women are jealous and it is difficult to coax, and men are even more difficult to deal with. With a flash of thought, the young man felt that he was thinking too much, and the young man was vaguely aware that Lao Bai seemed to know what he was thinking in his heart, and it was terrible, just like he was stripped naked by Lao Bai all the time, and he didn't even leave a pair of bottoms.

Suddenly, Lao Bai's voice came from his ears, "Peanuts and rice-sized birds, Lao Tzu doesn't like to look at them yet." ”

Sure enough.

The next day, in the early morning, Xu Tianran wore a green shirt and carried a small green bookcase to go to school in the morning sun.

The fat aunt slowly opened the door of the school, the gate is not big, it is not as good as the main gate of the high gate of Jinyang City, there are a pair of big stone lions at the door of many mansions, and it is very majestic.

Stepping into the gate, except for the latrine, there are three houses in the private school, the largest one in the middle of the courtyard has two floors, the first floor has several rows of tables and chairs, obviously it is the school, and the second floor is speculated to be a library building according to common sense, if the school does not have a few books, where is it embarrassed to open. Another small wooden house, with a closed door, was supposed to be the residence of the gentleman. There is also a building on the right side of the gate, which is the fat aunt's territory, kitchen and dining hall. A few branches of plum in the corner of the wall, Ling Han opens alone, the garden is full of plum blossoms, there is an osmanthus tree on the left and right of the gate, it is not the season of flowers, it is necessary to stay in August of the next year, the osmanthus is fragrant.

The young man was still looking at the scenery of the school, and unconsciously a girl in a purple cotton jacket stood behind him, and said softly: "Are you Xu Tianran, Mr. Xin's student?" The girl was two or three years older than Xu Tianran, slim and elegant, and her figure was becoming more slender and soft.

Xu Tianran turned around, "I've seen Senior Sister, I'm Xu Tianran." ”

The girl introduced herself: "Sir said, the same brother and sister do not need to be polite, otherwise the whole day will be bent over, the young man should straighten his waist, and must not bend down like the old man." I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Liu Ruyun. ”

Xu Tianran has been dealing with the old man for a long time, he hasn't talked to the young girl for a long time, and he is rarely shy, "White Peacock" said that every junior brother lives in the heart of an empathetic senior sister, Xu Tianran feels that the sentence "White Peacock" is really right, the first time he saw the senior sister, he felt that he should be the senior sister in the future.

Liu Ruyun led Xu Tianran to familiarize himself with the situation of the school, and said the rules of the school, what can be done and what cannot be done, clearly said, Xu Tianran listened drowsily, sure enough, there are many rules for readers, and Lao Bai has never had any rules in the butcher shop, do whatever he wants.

Liu Ruyun saw the young man's absent-minded appearance, so he changed the subject: "Mr. said that you are highly talented and can never forget, I am very envious when I hear it, and Mr. said that I am dull, hard work, and lack of talent." ”

Xu Tianran hurriedly said: "Senior sister is too modest, not to mention how senior sister is educated, senior sister can be invincible in the world just by virtue of her alluring appearance." No matter how powerful a scholar is, he has to bow down under his sister's skirt in front of his senior sister, where can there be anyone who is more knowledgeable than his senior sister. ”

Liu Ruyun hid her face and smiled, "The sycophants are good, although they are exaggerated, they are still listening." ”

Xu Tianran said with a smile: "Senior sister likes to listen to it, and junior brother will often tell it to senior sister in the future." ”

Liu Ruyun waved his hand, "Mr. said, it's enough to listen to one or two sycophants, and it's easy to take it seriously if you hear too much." I've been in the school for six years, I've never seen Mr. so happy, it seems that Mr. really likes you, you have to study hard in the future, we disciples don't fight, can't read Mr.'s knowledge, and will rely on you to take over in the future. ”

Xu Tianran listened to it loudly, and his willingness to go to school was just to recognize words, otherwise if he got the martial arts cheats in the future, he would not be able to recognize the words, and he would be embarrassed, and he would lose a lot of money.

The girl didn't understand the complicated thoughts in the young man's heart, and said to herself: "Mr. never teaches advanced knowledge, only teaches enlightenment knowledge, and after six years of study, if you are willing to continue to learn, you will stay and read again, all on your own, what you want to learn, what you want to learn, free, if you don't understand the gentleman is willing to give you a pointer, at the end of the day I don't take the trouble to add a sentence, this is my opinion." Mr. is so knowledgeable, and he is still humble, as a student, I really admire, how can the student's views be more transparent than Mr. ”

The young man thought about Lao Wu's squinting eyes and smiling cheaply, and blurted out: "The disciple doesn't have to be inferior to the teacher, Lao Wu doesn't have anything great, just live longer, read more books, and play chess better." ”

Liu Ruyun's autumn eyes smiled brightly, and her peach blossom eyes were in full bloom: "Senior brother is really talented, I never dared to have such thoughts, in my heart, Mr.'s knowledge is very high." ”

Xu Tianran suddenly had a pain in his head, ate a chestnut, and Mr.'s voice came: "The word 'some' is a bit of a doorway." ”

Liu Ruyun said respectfully: "Sir." ”

The young man squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, wah-wow, the reader is really smaller than small.

A little black charcoal boy with a tiger head jumped into the school, and when he saw that Mr. was teaching Xu Tianran, he dared to act far away and shouted: "Sir." "As soon as I turned around, I was gone.

Liu Ruyun introduced softly: "His name is Lu Xiaobu, and he is Aunt Liu's son. ”

Xu Tianran glanced at the little black charcoal in the distance, this is the son of the fat aunt, sure enough, the fat aunt is easy to raise, and the son who gave birth is pleasing to the eye, black and healthy. Lao Bai is really not enlightened, although rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, they can't not eat it at all.

After a while, a little girl like a porcelain doll came, the little girl held a sugar gourd in one hand, saw Mr. from a distance, secretly hid the sugar gourd behind her, and did not forget to lick her lips with her tongue, so she did not hurry to Mr. "Sir, good morning." ”

The gentleman smiled and nodded, and turned to leave.

Xu Tianran looked at the little girl who was about the same age as herself, she was very cute, but at first glance, she was a loser who couldn't be diligent and thrifty, and she was far less understanding than her senior sister.

The little girl looked at the strange boy curiously, the slightly dark skin looked more and more boyish and manly, and he looked like a gentleman in a green shirt, which was very pleasing to the eye. The little girl didn't have so many scruples in front of her senior sister, she took out a sugar gourd and bit off one in one bite, and her cheeks were bulging, "Good morning, Sister Liu." "The biggest feature of the little girl, sweet mouth, is the opposite of Xu Tianran, Xu Tiantian's biggest feature, the mouth is owed.

Liu Ruyun nodded and smiled: "Xiaoxue, good morning." The little girl walked slowly to the school.

Liu Ruyun introduced to Xu Tianran: "She is the most beautiful girl in our school, her name is Ji Shengxue. Like a porcelain doll, I like to pinch her little face the most, which is very comfortable. ”

Xu Tianran's head is full of black lines, so he won't introduce it so carefully, it's hard to introduce me as a daughter-in-law, but I don't need it. Lao Bai was in the shop, looking in the direction of the school, and shook his head.

A few more students came one after another, and Liu Ruyun patiently introduced: "Sister Lin, Sister Lin, are twin sisters. The one who wore silk and a mink hat was Yuan Hao. ”

Liu Ruyun thought of something, frowned and said: "There are a few foreign students in our school, and there are a few people who are more arrogant, you must be careful, they don't dare to do anything in the school, when they go out, they are bad? However, the outsiders are not all bad people, Chen Dazhui is very good, and there are two brothers, Jiang Yan and Jiang Li, who are gentle and polite, handsome and cute." ”

Before the words fell, three menacing teenage children entered the door, and the first one squinted at Liu Ruyun and Xu Tianran, his eyes were full of disdain, in their eyes, the local villagers in the town were just maggots, if it weren't for Mr. sitting here, they would have driven these people out a long time ago, and sitting in the same room with these people, it seemed that they would be contaminated with the smell of mortal dust, and they would have mistaken their cultivation path.

Liu Ruyun lowered his head and whispered, the three of them were Tang Yunjie, Jin Gui, and Yan Su.

When I returned to the school, the sound of the students reading aloud in the morning class was like a hypnotic ballad, and Xu Tianran was drowsy when he heard it, but after listening to it, the boy remembered it, and some of them didn't seem to understand the meaning, so he remembered it in his heart first.
