"We are going to Ruhai Academy to visit Mr. Huangshi and listen to him talk about books and talk about the truth. Brother Duan, are you interested in going with us?"
"Ah? I felt dizzy when I heard the teacher speak, so let's forget it!"
Duan Lianshan shook his head like a rattle: "But I know Mr. Huangshi's name, former Tanhualang! Brother, you should come back for lunch, right?"
“It’s really hard to say at noon.”
"We must come back for dinner that night, right?"
"Tonight...it should be fine."
"Okay! There is a new dish called Aromatherapy Porkhead, which tastes very good! I'll ask you to book two now. When you come back, let's eat together!"
Lin Xu smiled and bowed: "Thank you, Brother Duan, then I'm going to have a good time today."
Lin Xu, Yan Ning, Xia Dahai and Xiaoying rode their horses and arrived at Ruhai Academy soon after.
Ruhai Academy is located next to Yue'er Lake in the west of the city. It is just a house with two in and two out. It covers an area of more than two acres, with mottled walls and is already very dilapidated. In addition to being a little larger, it is also like ordinary houses.
No difference.
However, here is surrounded by water on three sides and the green trees in front of the door adds a bit of elegance to the academy.
At this moment, the gate of the academy was closed, and there was no sound inside, as if there was no one.
"Sir, is this the famous Ruhai Academy? It doesn't look special. It's far from the big houses of officials, gentry and wealthy people in the city!"
This is the first time Xia Dahai has come here. He originally thought that Ruhai Academy was very grand. After all, Ruhai Academy is famous, but he didn't expect it to be such an old courtyard.
"The mountain is not high, but it is famous if there is immortal. The water is not deep, but it is spiritual if there is dragon. Although this academy is a bit dilapidated, it is not an ordinary place to have Mr. Huangshi teach here."
Lin Xu said with a smile.
"The mountain is not high, but there are immortals, but it is famous. The water is not deep, but there are dragons, but it is spiritual. The gentleman said it very well!"
Yan Ning sincerely expressed his admiration!
"hehe......"
Lin Xu smiled lightly, got off the horse, walked to the academy, and knocked on the door cymbal twice.
Soon, the door opened from the inside, and a young man about 17 or 18 years old and handsome, walked out. He was wearing a long white-washed blue gown and a patch on his hem.
.
"Is the young master here to find my father?"
The young man asked politely.
"My name is Lin Xu. I came to visit Mr. Huangshi in a special way. Is he at home?"
Lin Xu's tone was naturally very polite.
"Sorry, my father was invited by his friend the day before yesterday to Dingzhou Prefecture to teach. It took one or two days to come back at a short time, and four or five days to come back."
"Is that so? This is a bit of a coincidence."
At this time, Yan Ning also came over and greeted him with a smile: "Hello, you are a year."
"So it's Mr. Yan!"
When the young man saw that it was Yan Ning, his face immediately filled with a smile and bowed to give a scholar's gift.
"Sir, this is Mr. Huangshi's son. Xu Younian, who just turned 17 this year, has passed the scholar exam. Younian, this is the talented man in Jiangling that I told you before, Mr. Lin."
Yan Ning introduced.
"What a talented man in Jiangling, don't make fun of me! One year old brother was admitted to the scholar at the age of seventeen. He is so amazing! But I am already twenty, but I haven't even touched the threshold of a scholar. I feel ashamed of myself.
ah!"
Lin Xu bowed and said.
"Young master, you are polite! I was just lucky enough to pass the exam for scholar. Young Master Yan is a dragon and phoenix. Young Master Lin is so respected by Young Master Yan, I think he is even more a dragon and phoenix among people! There are still many years left.
Woolen cloth!"
Xu Younian said modestly.
Although he had just a few simple conversations, Xu Younian's humility and courtesy left a very good impression on Lin Xu.
Being able to raise such a good son can also reflect Mr. Huangshi's character from the side. This chapter has been completed!
