In front of the private school, the fat aunt was sweeping the floor leisurely, looking up at the butcher shop from time to time, with a look in her eyes. Old Bai was holding a fly swatter, crossed his legs, and hummed a tune, looking content and content.

My aunt took one look at it and was so frightened that she quickly stood up and found something to do to sharpen her knife.

Old Wu smiled and said nothing.

Xu Tianran tugged on Lao Bai's sleeve, "Lao Bai, Fat Aunt is really interested in you."

Old Wu nodded, "Old man Bai, Liu Yingying is interested in you."

Lao Bai suddenly started sweating profusely, "Old Wutou, you are disrespectful to me by following the kid and making noises."

Old Wu smiled heartily and said: "You are so old that you are so shy. Yingying is a nice person."

When Lao Bai heard the word "Yingying", his head got bigger, but the fat aunt's surname was Liu, and her waist as thick as a bucket had nothing to do with the thin waist of a willow branch. Lao Bai didn't know why, but Lao Wu didn't love her in the past.

Why is it that a kidding person, a serious scholar, has a little brat come along, and his character has been taken astray?

Lao Wu looked at the sad Lao Bai, who was more happy than winning the chess game against Lao Bai, "Lao Bai, a woman can't just look at her appearance, she must look at the essence through the appearance, and see the beautiful heart of the fat aunt, which is even more beautiful than a fairy."

At our level, if we are still attached to the skin, we have fallen into the inferior realm."

Lao Bai was sharpening his knife and said with murderous intent, "Old Wu Tou, if you like Fat Aunt's beautiful soul, why don't you take Fat Aunt in as your wife? You have been a bachelor all your life, and you must be very lonely with no one to warm your bed at night."

"

Old Wu still smiled and said: "I want to kill thieves, but I am unable to carry a gun."

The young man who was drinking water took a big squirt of water. Even a serious old master would say unserious things. There is something wrong in this world, a big problem.

Lao Wu was unmoved and continued: "We scholars have no strength in our hands. The more knowledge we have, the worse our health will be. Reading will wear out our bodies. It's not like you who kill pigs who have a lot of strength and don't use their hands and brains every day."

, the more I work, the stronger my body becomes. I look like I’m a lot older, and I can still turn clouds and rain when I’m in bed.”

Xu Tianran was completely overturned by Lao Wu's words. When he listened to Lao Wu's words again, he always felt that there was something in Lao Wu's words. Scholars have many eyes, just like "the hands are powerless to tie a chicken" and it seemed to have something to do with it. Sure enough, he could offend no one in this life.

Don't offend scholars. My mother is right. Scholars don't hold grudges for a lifetime. Even if the emperor offends scholars, his bad words will be remembered in history books and will be infamy for thousands of years. The young man rolled his eyes and knew that he would have to stay away from scholars in the future.

Lao Bai looked at Lao Wu sideways, "You came here today just to talk about this trivial matter? You have nothing else to do, so you can go away."

Old Wu glanced at the young man, who was suddenly frozen. He only glanced at the old master with the corner of his eyeballs. He was deeply afraid that the sanctimonious master looked at the prime minister as having a stomach that could support a boat, but in fact he had a small belly, held grudges, and was determined to retaliate. He couldn't do that.

I told him a few words that he was not very knowledgeable and that he would not be able to stand it if he had to wear his own little shoes.

The old master gently tapped the young man's head with his fingers. The young man shrank his head. The old master said calmly: "Do you want to study?"

The young man took three steps back and shook his head vigorously, like a rattle.

Lao Bai glanced at Lao Wu, "I found this kid, and he belongs to me. You have to be able to teach him how to keep the bottom of things, and that's fine. Now you have to go even further, poaching thoroughly, and want to kill everyone directly."

Abducted."

Old Wu stroked his beard and said, "It's always right to study more. Besides teaching him how to fight and kill, what else can you do? While you are still young and your mind is still undecided, wouldn't it be good to read some books by saints and become a humble gentleman?"

Lao Bai curled his lips and said, "Students have the darkest hearts. We, the warriors, die to serve the country, but there are many scholars who harm the country."

Old Wu shook his head, "How many years have passed, but the knot in my heart is still unsolved. Warriors conquer the world, and scholars rule the world. Both are indispensable. After all, walking with a limp will not make it far."

Lao Bai was too lazy to listen to Lao Wu's nonsense, so he threw away the knife, squatted on the threshold, smoked dry cigarettes, and blew smoke rings.

The young man followed suit and squatted on the threshold, looking at the primary school across the bluestone road. The sound of reading loudly echoed in the mountains, frightening the heavens.

Lao Wu also squeezed over and wanted to squat next to the boy. The boy moved his butt towards Lao Bai, but Lao Bai's big butt pushed him back, "The door is small, there is no room."

Old Wu had no choice but to squat in the corner, with a butcher, a husband, and a boy. The sun warmly caressed the boy's cheeks. What the boy who has traveled far away in the future will miss most is the sunshine of that day and the narrowness of the shop.

door.

Old Wu looked at the young man sincerely. The young man felt uncomfortable all over. The master said gently: "Why don't you like reading?"

Xu Tianran thought for a while, "Mother said that only scholars in the world are the most heartless people. I don't want to be a hypocrite who goes around selling benevolence, justice and morality. I don't want to be a true gentleman who will die even though thousands of people have died."

Quick. I want to be a swordsman, practice a good sword, and kill whoever is unhappy. In the future, I will travel around the world and be happy with my enemies."

As he spoke, the young man's eyes turned red, "My biggest wish in this life is to learn swordsmanship successfully, burn a stick of incense in front of my mother's grave, and tell her about the great enemy."

It has been reported that my son is fine, so there is no need to worry about him. If I marry a daughter-in-law in the future, I will take my daughter-in-law and her children to my mother's grave every year and let the children kowtow to grandma. Mother will know that I am living a good life and I will have no regrets in this life."

The young man's voice trembled at the place where his face was moved, which made people feel pity for him.

Lao Bai, blowing out the smoke ring, thought of the gentle and beautiful woman's eyes of reluctance when she handed the child into his hands, determined and sad.

The corners of the Master's eyes were wet. Unlike the hard-hearted old Bai, the Master had always been sentimental. He understood the young man's thoughts. He was lying if he said he didn't want to study. He just didn't want to delay his practice and be trapped in the unknown place every Qingming Festival.

Deep in the mountains, I looked in the direction of my mother's grave. I didn't even know if my mother had a grave or if there were kind people who could help her bury her so that she wouldn't have to suffer in the wilderness. All I could do was wait for my cultivation to be successful.

After leaving the town and walking around the world, we could find our mother's tomb. The little boy looked careless day by day, but in fact he was thoughtful the most. Lao Bai said that young people are born with the ability to sense people's hearts and know good and evil.

Old Wu touched the young man's head and said, "Haste makes waste. You have to take part in the imperial examination to study. It's just to read more principles and suffer less losses when traveling in the world. Besides, you want to practice swordsmanship, swordsmanship

Most of the manuals are obscure and difficult to understand. If you travel around the world in the future and get a sword manual from a great swordsman, but you can't understand it, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

The young man was thoughtful and blinked his eyes, "What you said makes sense, sir. Then I'll go study."

Old Wu smiled happily.

The young man bowed to his master with sincerity. The young man knew that his master really did good for him. It is strange to say that since he was sensible, he could know whether others were kind or malicious towards him. This is his innate ability.

Old Wu's figure disappeared in a flash, and then came back again. When he came, he was holding a small bamboo book box. "The pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the books are all in it. I will carry it to school tomorrow."

Without waiting for the young man to express his thanks, Old Wu disappeared without a trace. The young man felt that Old Wu might cry because he was tormented by his pitiful life experience. The young man secretly swore in his heart that if he became successful in the future, he would treat Lao Wu just like he did Lao Bai.

You definitely can't treat Lao Wu better than Lao Bai, and you can't be partial. Otherwise, seeing how big and thick Lao Bai is, he will be jealous most easily. Women are difficult to coax when they are jealous, and men are even more difficult to deal with when they are jealous. With a thought in his mind, the young man felt that he wanted to

It was too much, and the young man vaguely realized that Lao Bai seemed to know everything he was thinking. It was terrible, as if he was being stripped naked by Lao Bai all the time, even his underwear.

Do not stay.

Suddenly, Lao Bai's voice came to my ears, "I don't like to see birds as big as peanuts."

as expected.

The next day, early in the morning, Xu Tianran was dressed in a green shirt, carrying a small green bookcase, and went to school facing the rising sun.

The fat aunt slowly opened the door of the school. The door was not big, and it was not as big as the main entrance of the big houses in Jinyang City. There were a pair of big stone lions at the door of many mansions, which looked very majestic.

Stepping through the gate, excluding the toilet, there are three houses in the private school. The largest one in the middle of the courtyard has two floors. There are several rows of tables and chairs on the first floor. It is obviously a school. According to common sense, it is presumed that the second floor is a library.

If there were not a few books, there would be no reason to open a private school. There is another small wooden house with a closed door, which is probably the husband's residence. There is also another one on the right side of the door, which is the fat aunt's territory, kitchen and dining hall. There are some plum blossoms in the corner.

Ling Han blooms alone, and the garden is filled with the fragrance of plum blossoms. There is an osmanthus tree on the left and right of the gate. It has not yet reached the blooming season, but in August next year, the sweet-scented osmanthus will be fragrant for seven miles.

The young man was still looking at the scenery of the school, when a girl in a purple cotton-padded jacket stood behind him and said softly: "Are you Xu Tianran, sir's new student?" The girl was two or three years older than Xu Tianran, and she was tall and graceful.

, the figure that is being pulled becomes more slender and soft.

Xu Tianran turned around and bowed, "I have met senior sister, I am Xu Tianran."

The girl introduced herself: "Sir, my fellow disciples don't need to be polite, otherwise they will be bent over all day long. Young people should straighten their backs and not be like the old man who only knows how to bend over. I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Liu Ruyun

."

Xu Tianran has been dealing with the old man all these days, and has not spoken to the young girl for a long time. He is surprisingly shy. "White Peacock" said that every junior brother has a considerate senior sister living in his heart. Xu Tianran feels that "

The saying "white peacock" is so true. When I first saw my senior sister, I felt that my future wife should look like my senior sister.

Liu Ruyun led Xu Tianran to get familiar with the school. He explained the rules of the school, what can and cannot be done, and explained clearly. Xu Tianran felt drowsy after listening to it. Sure enough, scholars have many rules. In the butcher shop, Lao Bai

There are never any rules, just do whatever you want.

Seeing the young man's absent-minded look, Liu Ruyun changed the topic: "My husband said that you are very talented and have a photographic memory. I was very envious after hearing this. My husband said that I am dull and have too much hard work and not enough talent."

Xu Tianran hurriedly said: "Senior Sister is too modest. Not to mention how knowledgeable Senior Sister is, Senior Sister is invincible just because of her stunning appearance. No matter how powerful a scholar is in front of Senior Sister, she will have to bow down under Senior Sister's skirt.

There can be people here who are more knowledgeable than senior sister."

Liu Ruyun covered her face and smiled, "The flattery is good. Although it is a bit exaggerated, it still sounds good."

Xu Tianran laughed and said: "Senior sister likes to hear it, and junior brother will often tell it to senior sister in the future."

Liu Ruyun waved her hand, "The teacher said that one or two flatteries are enough. If you listen too much, you will easily be taken seriously. I have been studying in the school for six years, and I have never seen my husband so happy. It seems that he really likes you.

, you must study hard in the future. We disciples are not up to par and cannot understand your master's knowledge. It will be up to you to take over in the future."

Xu Tianran was confused by what he heard. He wanted to go to school just because he could read. Otherwise, if he got the secrets of martial arts in the future, he would not be able to read the words, which would be embarrassing and would be a big loss.

The girl didn't understand the complicated thoughts in the young man's heart, so she said to herself: "The teacher never teaches advanced knowledge, he only teaches enlightenment knowledge. After studying for six years, if you want to continue learning, you can stay and read books. It all depends on yourself. If you want to

You can learn whatever you want and feel free to do so. If the gentleman who doesn’t understand is willing to give me some advice, he will take the trouble to add a sentence at the end. This is my opinion. The gentleman’s knowledge is so profound and he is so open-minded. As a student, I really admire him. How can a student’s opinions be so different?

More transparent than Mr.

The young man thought about Old Wu's squinting smile and blurted out: "Disciples don't have to be inferior to their teachers. Old Wu is not that great. He just lived longer, read more books, and became better at playing chess.

"

Liu Ruyun's Qiu Shui eyes smiled brightly, and her peach blossom eyes were in full bloom: "Junior brother is really talented. I never dare to think like that. In my heart, your knowledge is very high."

Xu Tianran suddenly felt a pain in his head and after eating a chestnut, his husband's voice came: "The word 'some' is used in a certain way."

Liu Ruyun said respectfully: "Sir."

The young man squatted on the ground with his head in his hands and screamed. Scholars are really more narrow-minded than the others.

A little black boy with a tiger-like head jumped into the school. When he saw his teacher teaching Xu Tianran, he only dared to bow from a distance and shouted: "Sir." As soon as he turned around, he disappeared.
