"Dai'er, I've taught you so much, and you haven't learned it well. Today I'll be the only one who will be a gentleman and teach you what I've learned, okay?"

Chen Xi brought Lin Daila back and asked her and Lu Xier to sit on the bench, like two well-behaved students, while he himself took out the Analects of Confucius and taught the two of them the sentences and words based on the above content.

In the past, when Chen Xi taught Lin Dai to write, he taught a single word, but suddenly he taught a lot of "Zi Yue" content. Not only Lu Xier, who looked cute with her eyes wide open, even Lin Dai, who was much older, couldn't understand it.

"Brother Chen Xi, what do you mean?" Lu Xier has the talent for learning, so she asked her if she didn't understand.

Chen Xi is really not easy to answer now.

As mentioned earlier, because it is difficult to read in this era, students may drop out of school at any time, and the Analects of Confucius is a must-read textbook for the imperial examinations. Therefore, general primary schools generally regard the Analects of Confucius as an enlightenment book for children, allowing children to recite and use this book to recognize new words.

The Analects of Confucius is rich in content and concise and concise in thought. It contains the principles of observing people, the principles of establishing one's own life, the teachings of benevolence and filial piety, the teachings of observing etiquette, the ways of governing the country, and the ways of learning. It has strong inspiration for the development of children's mind and the establishment of their outlook on life, but it is still difficult to understand them.

Because of this, schools in places with developed economy and rich cultural heritage usually use "three hundred and thousands", that is, the Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Names and Thousand Character Classics as enlightenment textbooks. Some scholars founded by scholarly families even add various books such as child training, child prodigy, study, and filial piety, which are freely chosen by children.

But this will undoubtedly greatly increase the burden on the children's family for the remote Ninghua County, so the tutor simply slashed his sword and directly adopted the Analects of Confucius to enlighten the Enlightenment.

"Let me do this, I will teach you something else, called the Three Character Classic. When you follow me to read the beginning of human beings, your nature is good. The nature is similar, but your habits are different."

Chen Xi used easy-to-understand and catchy readings like the Three Character Classic to teach two loli, and the effect immediately became much better.

Although Lu Xier was very smart, Chen Xi taught her a few words and she could recite it immediately. After finishing memorizing, she still pulled Chen Xi's clothes, m..comstyett; asked with a smile: "Brother Chen Xi, am I carrying it well?"

Chen Xi looked at Lin Dai who was a little disappointed opposite him, and knew that it was not a wise move to praise another loli in front of a loli. He just touched Lu Xier's head, and did not comment on whether it was good or bad, but said, "Xi'er, can you tell your mother back when you go back?"

"good."

Lu Xier agreed happily.

Afterwards, Chen Xi demonstrated the first two sentences of the three-character classics for the two lolitas. The two lolitas were like this, but it still took half an hour to write the words accurately.

Seeing that it was getting late, Chen Xi quickly led the two lolita to the pharmacy for supper.

When he arrived at the alley outside, Chen Xi suddenly couldn't help but shivered, and the feeling of being peeped into his heart. He pretended to be nothing but led the two lolitas forward, but glanced at the entrance of the alley from the corner of his eyes. At this time, someone was looking around there, and it was not a good person.

There were several half-year-olds playing with sandbags near the entrance of the alley, and two girls next to them were playing shuttlecocks. The person's eyes fell more on the girls.

Chen Xi thought to himself, could it be a kidnapper?

There are many kidnappers these days, but few kidnappers are abducted by girls, because even if someone wants to buy children, it is to inherit the family incense. As for those who actively sell children, there are also people who sell children as slaves, but they usually sell them for ten or twenty years. This is equivalent to raising their children with rice from wealthy families. The children have to grow up to about 30 years old before they can regain their freedom.

"Xi'er, go quickly. Dai'er, you should hurry up too."

Chen Xi, regardless of whether this suspicious person was a crutch or not, although the back alley is still safe, it is difficult for him to resist with thin arms and legs.

When they arrived at the entrance of the backyard of the pharmacy, Chen Xi looked out again. The people at the entrance of the alley had left. The children were still laughing happily from time to time, without even realizing any danger, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it may have been by chance, Chen Xi felt like a thorn on his back. He concluded that the man was either a traitor or a thief, and he must have bad intentions. But what exactly did he do? Why was he trying to do? He didn't come up.

In the following days, Chen Xi never saw the stranger who had been standing at the entrance of the alley again, and felt a little relieved.

It was Laba Festival. Ninghua County was very lively and the business in the pharmacy shop was also very busy.

It's almost the end of the year, and the school is about to have an annual leave. Because the teacher wants to take the exam, Chen Xi usually does not go to the pharmacy to help with his homework. However, on the afternoon of Laba Festival, Chen Xi had to go to the pharmacy because there were too many people asking about medicine, and Zhou and Hui Niang were too busy.

What Chen Xi has to do is not complicated. It is to help Hui Niang receive guests, ask them to line up, and take the prescriptions in turn to grab the medicine. If there is insufficient medicine in the drawer of the medicine cabinet, Chen Xi will also get it to the backyard warehouse to get it, and he is busy with time.

Those who come to Huiniang Pharmacy to ask about medicine, whether they are poor or rich, Huiniang treats them equally. Fortunately, people are very conscious and do not make special. But there are always exceptions. So, two yamen runners came over from the yamen. The prescriptions in their hands were not for curing diseases and saving people, but for tigers and wolves that replenish kidney qi.

After entering the pharmacy, the two of them didn't line up at all. They walked straight to the counter and asked Hui Niang to get medicine. The people who had been waiting next to them for a long time did not dare to do anything even if they were angry.

"Two men, two of them need to be replenished from the warehouse. Why not wait in the inner hall first?" After reading the prescription, Hui Niang said respectfully to the two yamen runners.

"Kuaier, hurry up, we are busy at the end of the year, so we are in a hurry to go back to work. If you miss the business, can you afford it?"

Even though Hui Niang is a well-known figure in Ninghua County, the merchants of this dynasty are lowly, and in the eyes of these clerks who originally had a more low status but had certain power, they are not worth mentioning at all.

Hui Niang hurried to the backyard to search for two medicinal herbs that were not commonly used in the prescription. The two yamen runners sat down on the bamboo chair in the inner hall with arrogance, yelling that they were thirsty.

Chen Xi had to put down his work, quickly brought a large teapot on the stove in the backyard, and then served tea cups to pour tea for the two of them.

"Did you hear that a few Jinyiwei came from the south a few days ago and wandered around the border of our Tingzhou Prefecture. Even our county town has come, as if looking for someone."

The older yamen runners had nothing to say after drinking tea.

The younger yamen runner leaned over and whispered: "I met them when I left the city before. I heard that they escorted the criminals to the north a few months ago, but they lost someone on the ground of our Tingzhou Prefecture."

"According to the truth, if you commit suicide or die of illness, the superiors will not investigate it. Who knew that this time the superiors would actually investigate thoroughly. They wanted to see people dead and corpses, so they could only run back to find someone."

Afterwards, the two seemed to think that their voice was too loud and worried that they would be heard, so they bit their ears and whispered.

Chen Xi came out with a large teapot, wondering if the person he saw at the alley that day would be related to what these two yamen were talking about.

In the Ming Dynasty, after officials committed an accident, the female family members were often sent to the Jiaofangsi.

Chen Xi could not guess what the person was committing the crime, but he vaguely felt that this matter might be related to Lin Dai, because Lin Dai's words and actions are mysterious in his daily life. After falling asleep at night, he always cried and called his parents. When he woke up, he didn't mention anything about the previous incident.

The only thing that can be explained is that Lin Dai is probably lost on the road after committing an offender and was discovered by her mother and son on the way to the city in Shuangxi Town.

After the two yamen left, Chen Xi did not show any abnormality. He didn't want Hui Niang and Zhou to worry after knowing this. The best way was to ask Lin Dai quietly in private, but he knew in his heart that even if he asked, he might not know the answer.

At night, the two families gathered to eat Laba porridge.

Lu Xier is the happiest person among the people on the table. When eating porridge, she ran around the dining table, took a few bites and then ran again. Hui Niang couldn't hold on any of her.

"Mom, I want Brother Chen Xi to teach me the Three Character Classic. Brother Chen Xi is so amazing." In Lu Xier's eyes, Chen Xi seemed to be a god-like existence. No matter what, Brother Chen Xi is the best.

Hui Niang sighed, "Then you have to have a meal first, so that you can learn from Brother Chen Xi. Be good, come and have a meal, you see, Brother Chen Xi is eating too."

"No, Brother Chen Xi is watching Sister Dai'er."

Chen Xi blushed awkwardly because he thought about the previous yamen runners' affairs, Chen Xi kept looking at Lin Dai without realizing it, but Lu Xier was noticed sharply.

Chen Xi thought to himself, it was indeed a childish statement.
