Who would have thought that this little baby waiting to be fed would actually be a future genius.
Some people say he has the same name and surname, but he didn't see his mother calling him Fengxiao? With Guo Jiahe's awesome attributes, it would be strange if there is something wrong.
Especially when Xie Xin saw the conditions for becoming a disciple, Xie Xin couldn't help but feel a raging fire in his heart.
If Mao Jie is a second- or third-rate historical figure, Guo Jia is definitely one of the forefront historical figures. If such a talent has the opportunity to be a disciple, only a fool would not do it!
Seeing Mrs. Guo taking the food and thanking her before leaving, Xie Xin knew that he must not miss this opportunity.
"Please stay!" Xie Xin was anxious and didn't know how to address Guo, so he simply omitted the title.
"Sir, what's the matter?" Mrs. Guo couldn't help but turn around and ask after seeing the thank you letter.
"I wonder if you can let me have a look at the baby in my little sister's arms?" Xie Xin thought about it for a while, and finally decided to call her little sister.
He was worried that she had misunderstood something, so he immediately retorted: "I have learned a little bit about the art of fortune-telling. Just by listening to the previous cry, I knew there was something special about this baby, so I wanted to take a closer look at him."
"That's fine." Mrs. Guo saw that Xie Xin didn't look like a treacherous person, so she approached Xie Xin and showed him Guo Jia in his arms.
Of course, she carefully protected Guo Jia with both hands from beginning to end, for fear that Xie Xin would snatch the little baby away while she wasn't paying attention.
"Well, not bad, not bad." Xie Xin pretended to take a closer look, then carefully fiddled with Guo Jia's head, and finally nodded.
"This little girl is extremely talented, Master Ling, and will definitely become a generation of genius and mastermind in the future." Xie Xin said to Guo with a smile.
"Really?" Guo couldn't believe her ears.
"Although I'm not a man who keeps his word, at least I won't lie to others." Xie Xin replied with a smile.
"That's good... that's good! Fengxiao, you must live up to your expectations!" Knowing that her son had such qualifications, Mrs. Guo felt that it was worth working so hard for him.
"Actually, I have an unkind invitation! In fact, I opened a private school in Nanyang, and I am the teacher of that private school. Now that I see that your son is extremely talented, I want to put him under the door. I wonder if my little sister will agree?
"Xie Xin saw that Mrs. Guo was happy and immediately said to her while the iron was hot.
"This..." Guo hesitated.
Normally it was a good thing for her son to have a teacher, but when she heard Xie Xin said that he only ran a private school and it was far away in Nanyang, she had to think more about it.
Speaking of academic style, where can I compare to Yingchuan? Even if I can't go to Yingchuan Academy in the future, at least my son can study hard under this atmosphere.
But if I get to Nanyang, I don't know what the situation is like there. Anyway, regardless of leaving home, whether my son can study well is a big problem.
In the past, Meng's mother moved three times, so that her son could study well. Mrs. Guo worked hard to bring up Guo Jia, especially when she heard that her son was extremely talented, she didn't want her son to be brought up bad.
"Sister Guo, this gentleman has written three enlightenment books, which are now popular among the Han people and have become a sacred object of enlightenment for schoolchildren.
When it comes to enlightenment education, I am afraid that no private school in the world can compare with the private school opened by this gentleman.
You know, the reason why you came to Yingchuan is because Yingchuan Academy gave you a wine offering and he praised these three books very much, so you invited him to come and discuss them." When Guo was hesitant, Mao Jie said
He came out and said to her with a smile.
"It turns out to be the younger brother of the Mao family. Long time no see! Is what you said before true?" When Mrs. Guo saw Mao Jie coming out, she immediately smiled and saluted.
During this period of time, the one who actually cared about her the most was Mao Jie.
Even if he was not at home, he had ordered his servants to help Guo. After a long time, Guo would naturally understand.
Therefore, Mao Jie can be regarded as a small benefactor to her.
Ms. Guo didn't want to doubt his words. But when it came to her son's growth, she couldn't help but be careless.
"It really can't be true anymore. Speaking of Sister Guo, haven't you noticed that the teaching materials for younger students in Guo Clan School have changed recently? The new teaching materials were written by this gentleman." Mao
Because of the respect he had for Xie Xin in his heart, Jie tried his best to say nice things to him.
"Speaking of which, some teaching materials have indeed been changed recently. I heard that they are called "Three Character Classic", "Thousand Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Surnames". These three books are actually written by Mr. Guo?" Guo was surprised.
He looked at the thank you letter.
"In order to better educate schoolchildren, I spent some time writing a few books," Xie Xin replied with shame. Just looking at his expression, you can still see the frustration in it.
Since these three books were written by him, it might be a good choice for him to pursue his enlightenment elsewhere. At worst, he could just go back to Yingchuan to study when he grows up.
Mrs. Guo couldn't help but think about it in her heart.
"In this case, sir is the best choice for enlightenment. It's just that Guo Jia is young now and always needs someone to take care of him, right?" Guo expressed her last worry.
"This is not difficult! In fact, I also need a few helpers to handle chores there. If my little sister doesn't mind, we can go together." Xie Xin said with a smile.
"I wonder what kind of help you need, sir?" Guo asked cautiously.
"I don't have much to do. I mainly help with washing clothes, cooking, cleaning, raising livestock, tending the fields, etc. Of course, it doesn't mean that one person can do all these things, and everyone performs their own duties." Xie Xin also said.
Patiently explained to her.
"In this case, my little sister can be considered qualified." After hearing this, Mrs. Guo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"So, the little sister agreed?" After hearing her words, Xie Xin naturally understood what she meant.
"Sir, you are so generous with your fists. It would be inappropriate if the little girl doesn't know how to show appreciation." Mrs. Guo bowed politely.
Long live! Now that I am thanking you, I just want to shout a few words.
The ghost genius of the Three Kingdoms, Guo Fengxiao, finally fell into his clutches. Xie Xinzhong was naturally overjoyed.
I just thought that in Yingchuan Academy, Xun Shuang was still waiting for him to communicate, and in Luoyang, Li Ying was also waiting for him to visit. Xie Xin knew that he might not be able to return to Nanyang in a short time.
"I still need to stay in Yingchuan for a few days. Sister, you can take this little money to buy some clothes and other things, and also buy some meat for supplementation.
In a few days, I will go to Luoyang with Mao Jie before returning to Nanyang. If my little sister doesn't mind, you can go with me.
In fact, there is no need to worry too much. I am accompanied by my two apprentices and two female dependents, one of whom is my fiancée. With them here, I will have someone to take care of me on the way." Xie Xin had no choice but to do this for the time being.
arranged.
"Since the little sister has promised to sir, wherever the husband goes, the little sister will accompany him." Ms. Guo had no intention of refusing.
To be honest, if there were really only two men going to Luoyang, she would really hesitate to avoid suspicion. But after hearing that there were two women, there was nothing to worry about going together.
It just so happens that we can test Xie Xin's moral character and teaching ability on the way.
Just looking at the three pieces of money handed over in the thank you letter, Guo really hesitated.
"Sir, if you go to Luoyang, my little sister will definitely accompany you. It's just that it's hard for me to collect this money!" Guo said in embarrassment.
"My little sister, what you said is wrong! Guo Jia is my future student. Now is the time to grow taller. How can I not provide it properly? These coins are a meeting gift from me to Guo Jia. My little sister is just helping to collect them."
Xie Xin said with an "unhappy" look.
Seeing the determination on Xie Xin's face, Mrs. Guo could only sigh, bowed to Xie Xin and said, "In this case, my little sister will pay my respects to Mr. Xie."
After some polite greetings, the two of them said goodbye.
Xie Xin was in a happy mood and took Mao Jie to drink for a while before returning to the academy accompanied by him.
"Sir, I wonder if you accept Guo Jia as a disciple, is it really for Guo Jia or for his mother?" When they arrived at the school gate, Mao Jie asked with a strange expression.
"His mother may be pretty, but when it comes to women, I value a disciple with good qualifications." Xie Xin knew what Mao Jie was going to say, so he said it directly to him solemnly.
He knew that if he expressed that he wanted the Guo family, then Mao Jie would try his best to get the Guo family to fall for him. After all, Mao Jie comes from a family after all; and the Guo family is just a young woman without the protection of the family.
Just people.
Status determines the means. With Mao Jie's status, although he cannot mobilize too many resources, it is not difficult to get Guo to hand over the letter of thanks.
However, since Xie Xin expressed it so solemnly, Mao Jie also breathed a sigh of relief.
His teacher, Mao Jie, didn't want him to be a lecherous person, no matter how high his academic achievements were.
Suddenly, Mao Jie's respect for Xie Xin increased by 5 points, but Xie Xin didn't notice it.
Returning to the academy, Xie Xin returned to the guest room under the guidance of the guards.
Xie Yi and others had already fallen asleep, and Xie Xin, after washing himself, took out his spiritual stones and started practicing on the bed.
After all, this is not a fairy sect, and there is no blessing from the spirit gathering array, so the speed of cultivation has dropped a lot.
However, cultivating this thing is inherently a boat going against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Xie Xin naturally doesn't dare to neglect it.
A night of silence.
The next day, after Xie Xin washed himself, a servant told him that Xun Shuang had invited him.
As the servants arrived at Xun Shuang's office, they found a middle-aged man sitting next to Xun Shuang.
"My dear nephew, this is Mr. Sima Hui, the owner of Shuijing Villa in Xiangyang. Come and salute!" Xun Shuang said to him with a smile when he saw the thank you letter coming in.
"My dear nephew, there is no need to do this. You can do whatever you want." Upon hearing this, Sima Hui quickly stood up and stopped him.
However, as a courtesy, Xie Xin still saluted Sima Hui.
Not for anything else, but because Sima Hui has taught many first- and second-tier historical figures and deserves Xie Xin’s admiration for him.
After all, the man in front of me also served as the dean of Yingchuan Academy for a period of time.
When he was in Jingzhou, he also taught many scholars.
