Chen Xiaosheng glanced at Wen Zhengming and smiled slowly, "Reply to the words of the Grand Master, Zhengming is a good brother who grew up with him, but our experiences are very different. Zhengming is a descendant of Wen Tianxiang, and his father is also very famous in our Suzhou. He came from such a family and was taught by his mother to behave well and do well, and not to smear the family. Therefore, he has been devoted to studying since he was a child, and he has to imitate his ancestors, take the imperial examinations, join the court as an official, serve the court, and ask for the people. These steps have been made up when he was sensible, which is his lifelong wish, so the knowledge of studying and taking the imperial examinations is the most practical knowledge for him."

Master Hua nodded, "If it makes sense, then what about you?"

Chen Xiaosheng said: "I lost my father at a young age and had a very young sister to take care of. I was often hungry at that time. If my teacher hadn't helped me, I might not have even had the opportunity to study. At that time, it was my greatest wish to eat and wear to let my sister grow up well. For this reason, I had to do a lot of chores and earn money to support me and my sister. I knew that studying can lead to a good future, so I worked hard, but I also clearly understood that studying alone would starve to death. Studying and taking the imperial examination is a long time ago. No one knows when I will pass the exam, and whether I can pass the exam. How could I turn a blind eye to things outside the window and only read the books of sages?"

Chen Xiaosheng paused, and saw Master Hua showing a thoughtful expression, and continued, "I was young back then and couldn't even do the simplest moving and lifting. I didn't have time to be a waiter at the school, so I had to go to the study and ask my boss to help me copy books, so I exchanged some money for money. I can practice calligraphy and read books, and I can earn money for three. It can also solve my difficulties and give me the opportunity to learn. As the saying goes, there is a golden house in books. I have copied so many books, but I don't know how much I learned. Later, I realized that many of them are miscellaneous studies, but because of these miscellaneous studies, I came up with many changes.

I made money by mastering my own way, raised my sister, and gained the reputation of being a talented man. I bought a big house, opened a study, and used what I learned to detoxify my wife. It can be said that all my wishes were accomplished by miscellaneous learning, so for me, the most practical knowledge is naturally mixed learning. Now I have no difficulties, and I can use the knowledge I learned from my teacher to take the imperial examination, and even become an official in the court. But if there is no miscellaneous learning, the grass on my sister’s grave and I have grown taller. For practical purposes, the Four Books and Five Classics may not be practical for me."

After Chen Xiaosheng finished speaking, the study room became quiet. It was not until a quarter of an hour later that Master Hua sighed softly and looked at the Chinese Wenwu with a complicated face. "Wenwu, for so many years, my father has asked you to study hard and practice martial arts well, but you have never been able to become a martial arts. Today, after listening to Zhu Zhishan's words, what do you think? What is the most practical knowledge for you?"

Hua Wenwu stood up and stood in front of Master Hua, lowered his head nervously, and whispered: "Can I really say it?"

Master Hua frowned and pointed at Chen Xiaosheng and the others and said, "Look at them, you dare to say what you think in your heart for the first time when you meet your father. You are the son of your father. What can you say? Dad asks you, just tell the truth to your father. No matter what you think in your heart, you can't lie to your father!"

Hua Wenwu looked up at him, took a deep breath, and said quickly: "For me, miscellaneous learning is the most practical, and I like to invent it."

Master Hua looked at him carefully, suddenly stood up, walked out with his hands behind his back, "Take dad to see your invention, you three follow me too. Zhu Zhishan, tell me the knowledge here."

Chen Xiaosheng responded and followed them to Hu Wenwu's yard. He had just seen the invention of Chinese Wenwu, and after thinking about it, he had already figured out what level of learning to learn.

Hua Wenwu was surprised and happy and showed all his inventions to Master Hua happily. Although some of the large objects were only semi-finished and were stumped by some problems, it was indeed obvious that the things he invented were very strange.

Master Hua frowned and looked around, shook his head, and couldn't help but say, "What's the use of these things you made?"

The Chinese civil and military man bowed his head in a loss. Master Hua was angry and unbearable when he looked at him. He turned around and asked Chen Xiaosheng to come over to explain the knowledge inside. Chen Xiaosheng took a piece of stuff and fiddled with it for a few times, and soon solved the problem that stumped Chinese civil and military man. The little thing suddenly turned into an automatic water wheel, placed in a wooden basin like a child's play. Mr. Hua was shocked and then he carefully observed it.

Then, based on the idea of ​​Chinese civil and military flying in the sky, Chen Xiaosheng drew some sketches for Master Hua, explained the principles and ideas of hot air balloons, parachutes, paragliders, aircraft, etc., and said how much impact these things would have on military and people's livelihood if they were invented. After Master Hua was serious, Chen Xiaosheng also talked about the ideas about road construction and flood fighting. Some inventions may not solve natural disasters, but at least they can prevent or reduce losses.

Chen Xiaosheng's words are easy to understand. Although he was limited by ancient conditions and could not be solved by airplanes, his concept was very mature, and people would know that this thing would be studied sooner or later. In the end, Master Hua had already kept holding the drawings and asked repeatedly about how sure these things were to be studied.

Chen Xiaosheng said: "I can't say that I'm sure. After all, inventing anything may encounter problems that cannot be solved. But if we can gather more people who are proficient in it and gather everyone's strengths, we may be able to study it faster. Many things are just ideas, and whether they can be invented or not is not accurate. But if there is an idea, there will be hope and a goal. I believe that as long as the court attaches importance to it, we will definitely invent many useful things."

Master Hua narrowed his eyes and said, "It's like you inventing explosives that doubled their power?"

Chen Xiaosheng lowered his head and explained: "The Grand Master also knew that my wife would inevitably encounter some dangers when she was in the world. I just studied explosives to protect my wife's life, otherwise it would be impossible that there was no news of the wind yet."

Master Hua said with satisfaction: "It's good that you know the severity. Explosives are a big deal. Once they fall into the hands of the thief, they will be unimaginable. You will not be allowed to study them privately in the future. As for these... I will make a decision after I figure out whether it is useful."

Hua Wenwu's eyes lit up, "Dad, what's the decision? Have you accepted these things? Do you want Zhu Zhishan to lead people to study these? Can I follow him to study them?"

Master Hua snorted, "Can you fight for something? Zhu Zhishan talked about these things. People solved your problems at a glance, but they were still famous talented men in Jiangnan. Why didn't you learn from him if you are so optimistic about it?"

Seeing that the father and son were about to have a quarrel again, Zhou Wenbin hurriedly smiled and smoothed out the situation. "Actually, Brother Zhu's original intention was to live a better life. Young Master Hua is born and has no worries about food and clothing. Naturally, he will not put his heart into this. According to me, Young Master Hua is also a good thing to concentrate on a science. If you don't have to be distracted from studying things, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

Chen Xiaosheng also smiled and said, "Jin Ming and Wenbin, both have their own strengths. In fact, they are affected by the situation around you, and there are many things that have to be learned. Just like Mr. Hua, you don't have to consider other things and just do research you like, which is rare. If you can devote yourself to it, you will surely achieve great results. Just now, I discussed many issues with Mr. Hua. Mr. Hua is definitely higher than me. The Grand Master's strict supervision of Mr. Hua also wants him to become a talent and to gain a foothold in this world by himself in the future. If Mr. Hua can invent something that is of great use for the country and the family, I believe everyone will be grateful to him. Isn't this a talent?"

Master Hua turned his head and said in a deep voice: "You said it easily. If it was so easy to study it, why did you still remain unknown for so many years?"

Chen Xiaosheng glanced at Zhou Wenbin and replied, "I hope the Grand Master can't invent it, but I dare not invent it. I have met people like Zhu Zijian before. Once someone knows that I have good things in my hands, wouldn't I live long? It doesn't matter how I am, but I can't implicate my wife and my sister. Although I am a little timid, I came to Beijing to witness Wenbin being hit by Zhu Zijian's words this time, and I am still very glad that I didn't invent anything."

A few words led Master Hua's anger to Zhu Zijian. Master Hua snorted coldly and said with his hands behind his back: "It is because such villains are in trouble among the people that talented people in the people dare not emerge. As a father, King Ning is unreasonable! As the saying goes, a thousand-mile dike collapses into an ant hole. I must not tolerate such evil things! You three come with me, and I will take the exam for you in person."

Zhou Wenbin's eyes were filled with joy and looked at Chen Xiaosheng gratefully. Chen Xiaosheng nodded to him, and then followed Master Hua back to the study. The Chinese Wenwu was going to follow him, but was nailed to the spot by Master Hua's words "concentrated research". After a while, he realized that his father did not object to his inventions and no longer forced him to study and practice martial arts! The Chinese Wenwu cheered and almost cried excitedly, hugging his inventories and was so happy.

Among the literati, Tai Shi Hua is the best person in the world, and has a deep family background. He has read many rare books in the folk. It is naturally a great honor to be examined by him personally. Chen Xiaosheng and the other two have real talents and knowledge. No matter what questions Hua Tai Shi gave, they can answer them smoothly, and the characters they wrote were better than the other, which made Tai Shi Hua very satisfied, and then they recognized the name of the talented man in Jiangnan.

After taking the basic knowledge of the school exam, Master Hua asked them to talk about their ideas about the situation in the world. Chen Xiaosheng was a thousand years ahead of his thoughts, Wen Zhengming was an extremely righteous accumulated by generations, and Zhou Wenbin was a wandering country with wide knowledge. The three of them had their own ideas. Although they were different, they could learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses. The opinions put forward were very pertinent and feasible. The more Master Hua listened, the more he appreciated them. Later, there was no meaning of taking the school exam, and the few people had a great time in the study.

When the Grand Master received the news, he was extremely surprised and said to Su Xueyun in surprise: "The master hasn't admired anyone so much for many years. No wonder you are not nervous at all. It turns out that their strength is really as good as you said."

Su Xueyun smiled and said, "Of course, how dare Qiuyue deceive her wife?"

The Grand Master smiled happily and said, "It's rare that the master is in a good mood today. Qiuxiang, go and talk to Pomegranate and ask her to prepare more dishes that the master likes. By the way, prepare more other delicious foods. I want to keep Qiuyue and the others for dinner."

Qiuxiang laughed and said, "Yes, madam, I'll go now."

Qiuxiang saw her sister, and her brother-in-law was appreciated by the Grand Tutor. She smiled happily and went to the kitchen to look for pomegranates.

After she left, the Grand Master's wife waved her hand and ordered her to the lower body under her legs. She took Su Xueyun's hand and sat in the pavilion, sighing.

Su Xueyun observed his expression and asked at the right time: "Madam, what's the troublesome thing? Why don't you tell me and see if Qiuyue has any solutions?"

The Grand Master patted her hand and said, "You are a good child, Qiuxiang is also a good child, or a child who I and the Master have been together since childhood. Logically speaking, you are her sister. I have been reunited for so many years, so I shouldn't stop you. But I had no children in my early years. Seeing Qiuxiang Yuxue cute, I really treat her as my own child. After so many years of love, I feel really uncomfortable now that I have suddenly separated."

Su Xueyun thought for a while and said, "Madam, it is her blessing for Qiuxiang to be able to receive the care of the Grand Master and the Grand Master. However, I have not taken care of her for so many years. Now I have finally found her and I have asked her to be a maid with a slave on her back..." She stood up and blessed the Grand Master's wife, and said sincerely, "If Madam is reluctant to leave Qiuxiang, I will definitely ask Qiuxiang to come to see her often, so as not to hurt the relationship between the Lady and Qiuxiang."

The Grand Master turned his head and said sadly: "That's right, Qiuxiang is by my side every day. When I think that she will no longer be a member of my family in the future, I feel uncomfortable. The civil and military also relies heavily on Qiuxiang. When the civil and military was scolded by his father, Qiuxiang always helped me to plead. Without such a good child as Qiuxiang, what should I do in the future with my civil and military?"

Su Xueyun lowered her head and said slowly, "I heard Qiuxiang say that Mr. Hua is very talented in invention. The Grand Master was not angry after seeing the invention of my husband and Mr. Hua. I think the Grand Master also agreed to let Mr. Hua do what he likes. If the Grand Master and his wife don't dislike him, why would my husband and Mr. Hua study and invent it together? One person is planning the shortcomings, and the two are planning the leaders. Someone discusses that he may achieve twice the result with half the effort. What does the lady think?"

The Grand Master's wife's eyes lit up, "Really? Are you willing to let your husband accompany you to study and invent? Don't you want him to become an official in the high school top scholar? Many women hope that his husband will be awarded the imperial edict after he is promoted. Are you afraid that he will delay your husband?"

Su Xueyun smiled slightly and said, "Just like I said yesterday, many things are extremely important in the eyes of others, but they are useless to me. I married a good husband and found my sister, and I have no regrets in this life. Being awarded an imperial edict is the icing on the cake, and it is not a pity that I don't have it. Life is still smooth and free for decades. I just hope my husband can do what he likes."

The Grand Master's wife was stunned and sighed: "You are so open-minded at such a young age. I have lived for most of my life and have never figured out this truth all day long. I force my civil and military people to study and practice martial arts. Alas, I don't remember how long it took to see his smile."

Su Xueyun suggested: "The Grand Master agreed to let Mr. Hua invent. Mr. Hua must be very happy now. If the wife is concerned about it, why should she go and have a look?"

The Grand Master nodded and immediately stood up and walked towards the yard of the Chinese Wenwu. When the Chinese Wenwu was studying inventions for the first time, he was not scolded by the Grand Master Hua. He surrounded his inventions and could not stop the smile on his face. When the Grand Master walked out the window, he saw his son's happy scene, and his eyes turned red without realizing it.

Su Xueyun stood outside the window for a long time, and heard the Grand Master’s wife say hoarsely: “You are right, life is still smooth and free. It is so difficult for you sisters to meet again. I can’t be a villain. Don’t mention the money for redeem. I will give you Qiuxiang’s contract to sell her to you tomorrow.”

Su Xueyun's mouth raised, and she was blessed with a blessing, "Madam Xie."
