Chapter 9: Enrollment of new students under Yuexia Wenzhi
Enrollment will start tomorrow, but tonight is still a long night.
It has been several days since Bian Linglong came to her home. During these days, she always likes to stay by Xie's mother's side and listen to her talk about the past of thanking her letters.
Then when Xie's mother was busy, she went to help her with housework.
She was not Xie Xin, but everyone who had met her in Huangjiacun regarded her as the daughter-in-law of the Xie family. However, Bian Linglong had no intention of denying the rumors.
Xie Xin is also confused about this. Does she really like herself? Or is she 'forced' to like herself because of the influence of her favorability score of 85?
Now, I don't know whether it was fate or not. After the Xie family moved into a private school, Xie Xin and Bian Linglong's residences were only separated by a wall.
What's more coincidental is that their beds are against the same wall in the same position. This means that when the two of them go to bed, if there is not that unsightly wall, the two of them will lie down as if they were a couple.
Together.
At this moment of thanking me, I was obviously tired, but I couldn't fall asleep.
What's wrong with me? Why do you care so much about Bian Linglong?!
Why would you rather give up a lot of experience and rather preserve your favorability with her?
I remember her pitiful expression when I first saw her crying backstage; I recall her naughty and cute look when they escaped from Luoyang together; and she fought alone in the forest.
The heroic appearance of the pig...
Well, Xie Xin must admit that she left an indelible shadow in his heart.
To put it more simply, I have fallen in love with her.
Is it because I have been empty for more than twenty years that I fall in love with a girl I have only known for a few months?
Or is he actually a lolita control, specializing in controlling little lolita like Bian Linglong?
I am already twenty years old this year, and she is only ten years old.
According to the situation of the children of aristocratic families in this era, she is completely the oldest leftover boy at her age; but for her who is only ten years old, it is still the fruit that has not yet matured.
She could have become Empress Wuxuan, a queen mother, and enjoyed all the glory and wealth. But following her, she would only be a teacher's wife for the rest of her life, and at most she would be called "Master Mother" by her students...
The more Xie Xin thought about it, the more upset he became, but the more he couldn't sleep.
Tossing and turning and having trouble falling asleep, Xie Xin simply got out of bed and went out for a walk.
However, under the moonlight, he saw a beautiful figure staring at the moon.
"Linglong, what are you looking at?" Xie Xin walked over and asked.
Bian Linglong was startled at first, and then noticed that it was a thank you letter. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily: "Can't you make some noise when you walk?"
"Uh... I think the sound of my walking should be loud enough." Xie Xin replied with a wry smile.
"Enrollment is about to start tomorrow, why don't you go to bed early?" Bian Linglong didn't bother to pursue the matter further and directly changed the topic.
"Because we have to enroll students tomorrow, I can't sleep tonight. What about you? Why are you looking at the moon here? It's getting late..." Xie Xin asked with a smile.
"I'm thinking about something." Bian Linglong glanced at Xie Xin and replied calmly.
"What's the problem? Tell me and listen?" Xie Xin was a little curious.
"It's still the same old question, that is, why should I study? What can I do after studying?" Bian Linglong said, tilting her head.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to answer your question." Xie Xin simply sat down next to her.
In Bian Linglong's confused eyes, Xie Xin said calmly: "After I was born, my parents asked me to learn this and that, but I was also very strange, why did I learn this? What is the use of learning these?"
"So, have you got the answer?" Bian Linglong asked.
"No, there are too many answers. I haven't found the answer that belongs to me." Xie Xin shook his head.
The next moment, he asked: "Stop talking about that, do you have any dreams?"
"Why do you ask that?" Bian Linglong felt a rare shyness.
"Because someone told me that dreams are the answer I want to pursue." Xie Xin said with a smile.
"Dreams are the answer..." Bian Linglong quickly fell into deep thought.
After about two or three minutes, she came back to her senses and said with a smile: "Maybe, I know why I want to study."
"You know?" Xie Xin asked in surprise.
"So, can you tell me your dream?" Bian Linglong asked with a blushing face.
"My dream...to be honest, I still don't know what my dream is..." Xie Xin replied with a wry smile.
"So, why did you build this private school? You traveled thousands of miles and risked your life to bring me out of Luoyang, and why? You studied hard since childhood and finally got into Imperial College, but you didn't hesitate to be expelled.
Why do you have to go to jail for Master's generosity?" Bian Linglong shouted in surprise.
Building a private school? It can probably be said that I came to this strange world, so I rarely had a goal that I could fulfill, so I continued like this regardless of it?
As for rescuing Bian Linglong, it was actually because of this system that he had the idea of enrolling students. In the end, without knowing it, the two of them got to where they are today?
As for going to jail generously, that was a good thing done by this predecessor in the body, so what does it have to do with me? But if it hadn't been so, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to come to this world?
Just looking at Bian Linglong's anxious eyes, Xie Xin understood a little bit.
It turned out that I was not an unrelated tourist, but had already been involved in this historical torrent.
Everything you say and do will have an impact on the history of this world. Any behavior you take will inevitably change the direction of history in the late Han Dynasty.
A hundred years from now, the five chaotic China may be rewritten because of him. The territory of the Han Dynasty may even expand to the whole world because of him!
You may be alone, but what is your career?
If one can’t do it, then train a hundred disciples to carry it out! If one hundred can’t do it, then train a thousand or ten thousand!
Suddenly, he found that there was another road in front of him. The end of this road was the answer he wanted to know, and this road was full of unknowns and dangers.
But for some reason, Xie Xin felt that if he was afraid, then he would fall into confusion again. Just like before, he was living in confusion, but he didn't know why he was alive.
Looking back at Bian Linglong, Xie Xin smiled at him.
Maybe the path she found was not the one she hoped for.
But this good mentor and friend now may become a good wife and mother in the future. Xie Xin feels that she may be a partner who can accompany him and walk this road together.
"When you are sixteen, I will definitely marry you!" Xie Xin said with a wicked smile.
"Most people get married at the age of twelve...wait, who wants to marry you!" Bian Linglong's face turned red, and she ran back to the room a little ashamed, and then closed the door hard.
Looking at her shy look, Xie Xin smiled knowingly.
Afterwards, he also returned to his bedroom and fell asleep peacefully.
This night was the most comfortable night he slept in over twenty years.
Early the next morning, Xie Xin opened the door to the private school. Not only Huangjiacun knew about the opening of the private school today, Xie Xin also invited people to go to Xiejia Village, Loujia Village, and Zhangjia Village to promote it. As for whether anyone would come,
It's unknown.
Fortunately, even if people from other villages did not come, the people in Huangjia Village were very active, and soon four children came to school. Their average age was 8 years old, the oldest was 10 years old, and the youngest was only 6 years old.
Like many villages, Huangjiacun also has its own clan school. Since it is a clan school, only children of the own clan can be admitted, but occasionally some well-qualified foreign children are admitted.
Therefore, among those who came to sign up, three of them had foreign surnames, and their parents were from their grandparents' generation, and it was even Grandpa Zeng's generation who moved to Huangjia Village.
Only the last one has the surname Huang, and he is a cousin of Huang Zhong. It can be said that he is not only Huang Zhong's trust in Xie Xin's ability, but also Huangjiacun's test of the private school.
There is nothing good to say in this thank you letter. A newly established private school has no impressive background at all.
Around noon, there were twenty more figures outside the village.
Of course they were not all students, there were about six or seven adults following them.
They came from other villages to check out the private school. If there were no problems, these young children would naturally stay here to study. After all, even in other villages, there would still be immigrants.
But when they saw Xie Xin's young appearance, they began to doubt the quality of this private school.
After looking at the private school again, I found that this private school was unexpectedly crude, and I lost even more interest in letting my children attend it.
At this time, a young child came out and asked about the thank you letter: "Is this the Master?"
"I am the teacher of this private school, my surname is Xie Xin." Xie Xin replied with a smile.
"Yesterday, I heard the teacher teaching "The Analects" at the clan school. There was a sentence in it that I didn't quite understand. I wonder if Master Xie can explain it to me?" the child asked, tilting his head.
"Let's talk about it!" Xie Xin knew that this boy planned to test himself.
Although it's a little ridiculous, that's how it feels to give a thank you note.
"The Master said: When a disciple enters, he will be filial, and when he leaves, he will be a younger brother. He will be sincere and trustworthy, love others universally, and be benevolent. If he has enough energy to do, he should study literature. I don't know what this sentence means?" The young boy is not polite at all.
, asked directly.
"The meaning of this sentence is: Confucius said: 'Young people should honor their parents at home, obey their teachers outside, be cautious in doing things, be honest in what they say, love others broadly, and get close to virtuous people. After doing this,
If you still have the energy, go learn cultural knowledge. 'I wonder if you are satisfied with this?" Xie Xin explained with a smile.
"You've learned a lesson, kid!" The child bowed respectfully to the letter of thanks.
In response, Xie Xin just nodded with a smile.
Through their performance, the adults finally felt a little more at ease.
At least they could see that although this young man was a bit young, his knowledge was still good, and at least he would not do anything that would mislead others.
With this scene of asking for advice, the adults naturally came out and asked some questions that they had heard but didn't quite understand. Fortunately, the questions they asked were all about things in "The Analects of Confucius", and Xie Xin dealt with it without any danger.
After some testing, a dozen young children were officially accepted by Xie Xin.
It's just that the main hall is not very large, so there are not enough tables and chairs.
Fortunately, Xie Xin allowed them to go back and make preparations first, and then come back three days later to formally enroll. Today, it was treated as enrollment.
The adults naturally had no objections to this. Today they were just here for a test, but they didn't even bring anything needed for the apprenticeship ceremony. If they enrolled today, they would be extremely embarrassed.
Xie Xin found a booklet and registered sixteen new students, including four young children from Huangjia Village. Xie Xin suddenly found a name in it: Lou Gui.
He looked up suddenly, only to find that the owner of this name was the young boy who asked him the question before.
This made him sigh: Future celebrities may not be simple when they were young!
