Chapter 270 Hot Eyes
Author: Suisui
After leaving the bamboo forest, Yongzhu Pavilion is really revealed. It is a two-story wooden building with a living room in the middle and Fan Shanchang's residence on the right. The upper floor is completely open and contains all Fan Shanchang's books.
Since Xie Wenci was accepted as a disciple by Master Fan Shan, he would often come to Yongzhu Pavilion to read through Master Fan's collection of books. Sometimes he would be so fascinated by the books that he would forget everything and stay in the west side room at night.
After many times, Chief Fan Shan simply asked him to move directly to Yongzhu Pavilion. Part of the tuition fees charged by the academy were accommodation fees. As long as he did not live in the dormitory of the academy, he would not be charged.
Master Fan Shan knew that Xie Wenci's family was not wealthy, so he also wanted to help his disciples save a fortune.
Xie Wenci was a little embarrassed at first, and he was afraid that others would gossip, so he refused.
When Commander Fan saw this, he immediately thanked Wenci for his reprimand and was so ashamed that he moved from the dormitory to the west room the next day.
Fan Shanchang is a literati, but he also dislikes the kind of behavior that ignores appearance for the sake of face.
His family was already poor, so he could save whatever he could. Moreover, Xie Wenci did not follow any evil ways, but relied on his own ability to be accepted as his disciple. Why shouldn't he accept the kindness of his master?
Others gossiping is nothing more than jealousy. If they had the opportunity, they would be more active than anyone else.
Let’s not talk about saving accommodation fees, let’s just say that because of his identity, there are countless students in the academy who want to get to know him so that they can get to know more people who are beneficial to their career.
Getting back to the topic, Xie Wenci led Gu Jinnian and Chen Qingzhou into the west wing room. First, he pointed to the bed inside and said, "Just put the baggage on the bed."
Then he ignored the two children and found the bedding by himself, took it out and placed it on the couch.
"You guys will sleep on the bed these days, and I'll sleep on the couch. I'll put my things away first, and then I'll take you around the academy for a while."
Gu Jinnian and Chen Qingzhou nodded in agreement.
"Master, where is Qizhitang?" The questioner was Gu Jinnian.
Xie Wenci did not hide it, he walked over, pulled up a stool and sat down directly, "All students who come to the academy for the first time will first go to Qizhi Hall for assessment to determine their current level and then divide them... "
To put it bluntly, it is a place where entrance exams are done. Come to the academy and take the entrance exam first, and then you will be divided into classes based on your scores.
Xie Wenci is still very confident about the two children, "You don't have to worry, just use all your strength to take the exam tomorrow."
Seeing Xie Wenci's calm expression, Gu Jinnian and Chen Qingzhou were not so nervous. They nodded to show that they understood.
"Everything has been put away. Let's go. We'll stop and go until we can have lunch in the cafeteria."
Naturally, the academy also has a canteen, and the chefs are arranged by the government. There are many dishes, the taste is good, and the prices are even cheaper than outside.
Although Sanqing Academy is a private academy, it is funded by the imperial court, so poor students who pass the school will be exempted from part of their studies, and as long as they can obtain meritorious status, the imperial court will subsidize them with a sum of money.
The amount of money is divided according to his fame, and you can get a sum for being a boy student, you can also get a sum for being a scholar, and it goes without saying that you can get a sum for being a scholar...
Xie Wenci did have a relatively tight life in the first year, but he lived in Yongzhu Pavilion and saved a lot of expenses. Later, he passed the exam and obtained a meritorious degree, so he had a lot of money.
Even though this ink, paper and inkstone are all money, there is still a big gap between the abundance he talks about and spending money as he pleases.
So at that time, he still wouldn't say that he would go to a restaurant with his wealthy classmates. The food in the cafeteria was good, delicious, and affordable, and he was not stupid.
Many people in Sanqing Academy have heard of Xie Wenci's name. After all, he was a boy student in the 14th Middle School, a scholar in the 16th Middle School, and passed the national examination at the age of 19.
Moreover, he was still Ya Kui. If he had not been unlucky and failed the examination the following year, it would have been possible for him to become a Jinshi at the age of twenty.
But now, Xie Wenci is only twenty-one years old. If he is on the list next spring, he will be twenty-two years old. Among the Jinshi since ancient times, he is so young!
Furthermore, he is the disciple of the mountain leader. With such a name, it is difficult for others to ignore him.
So he led the two children on the veranda. During the recess, someone who recognized him looked at him and said hello.
Xie Wenci responded politely one by one, and did not hide the identities of Gu Jinnian and Chen Qingzhou when they asked them.
"These two are my disciples. I will bring them here to visit the teacher when I have time."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned to the two children. Gu Jinnian looked calm and not panicked at all. Chen Qingzhou was a little timid, but he thought about what Su Mo had said to him...
Gu Jinnian was also nervous.
Thinking of this, Chen Qingzhou inexplicably restrained his timidity.
The master accepted them as two disciples. If both of them made others think they were as timid as mice, wouldn't it be a loss of the master's face?
That won't work!
Just like this, one really looked calm and the other pretended to look calm, which made the other students look at him warmly.
What kind of luck did Xie Wenci have to receive such two disciples with strong minds?
As for intelligence, there is no need to think about it. If he is stupid, will Xie Wenci accept him as a disciple? Will he have the dignity to bring him to Sanqing Academy?
As the master who taught the class entered the school, the students sat back in their seats angrily.
The surrounding area suddenly became quiet, and soon the pleasant sound of reading could be heard.
Xie Wenci continued to lead Gu Jinnian and Chen Qingzhou toward the cafeteria, introducing them to the houses they passed as they walked.
Just so slowly, by the time they arrived at the canteen, it was almost time for dinner.
Xie Wenci led the two of them into the cafeteria. After questioning them, he ordered two dishes and one soup, and rice. After paying the money, he said to the two children: "I will take you to the cafeteria today."
Have a meal.
After you pass the examination of Qizhitang tomorrow, the master of the academy will issue you a small wooden sign.
At that time, you will be arranged to go to the school for classes. After class is over, you will go directly to the cafeteria. Show the small wooden sign to the person just now, and they will bring you food.
The dishes are random, with one meat, one vegetable and one soup. If you have any dietary restrictions, don’t worry about anything else, just tell him directly."
Gu Jinnian and Chen Qingzhou nodded. They were new here and were not familiar with many things. Naturally, they were grateful for what Wenci said and did.
Xie Wenci paused and continued: "I will take you on another trip in the afternoon. You are not required to memorize all the routes, but from Yongzhu Pavilion to the school just now, and then from the school to the cafeteria, this
There are two paths you must remember.
Your master's assessment is not just about knowledge, so starting from tomorrow, you will have to rely on yourself for many things.
Of course, if you really can't do it, don't force yourself to do it. In short, if you can do it yourself, do it yourself. If you really can't do it, come to me, do you understand?"
President Fan Shan did not like students who were not independent, nor did he like students who were self-righteous.
Gu Jinnian and Chen Qingzhou looked at each other and made up their mind. They nodded and said in unison: "Disciple, please remember the teacher's teachings."
