332 Xu lingyingâs anger (2)
second uncle, look. Auntie is just trying to take advantage of me. Itâs a pity that I havenât married yet. I have to save money to get married. Xu Qi âan immediately complained.
âDidnât I just give you 50 taels?â second uncle Xu said helplessly.
âYou still have the face to mention the fifty taels.â Xuxu slammed the table in anger. where did you get so much silver? It was given by someone.â
Xu Qi âan understood now. No wonder second uncle was in a bad mood today. It turned out that his aunt had confiscated his private money ⊠But you canât just vent your anger on me.
He complained in his heart.
âŠâŠâŠ.
Green cloud Hall.
The name of the clear sky Hall had two meanings. The second was to ride on the popularity of Mount Qingyun outside the capital.
The person who opened the private school was an old scholar named li Bingyi. He was 50 years old and his eyes were already starting to blur. Because of this, he had lowered his status to teach the children.
Shu Xiu was very expensive and paid once every three months.
Mr. Li Bingyi had a rule that if there were scholars in the house, Shu Xiu would have less than half. Those with official positions in their families, Shu Xiu had reduced by half.
Of course, the premise was that it was civil servants, with the exception of military generals.
With this rule, Mr. Li Bingyi turned the Qingyun Hall into a â Noble Primary School. those rich families who were not short of money found this rule interesting and highlighted their own sense of superiority. In addition, Mr. Li Bingyi was indeed a good teacher.
Thus, the large families that did not have the time to teach their children were all willing to send their children to the Azure cloud Hall.
A few months ago, Mr. Li Bingyi met the enemy of his life and was the most difficult student in his life.
âXu lingying, stand up!â
On the podium, Mr. Li grabbed a bamboo stick and knocked on the table.
There were more than twenty children sitting in the hall. In the eastern corner, a little girl with a childâs hair tied up in a bun stood up obediently.
Her facial features were sparse and ordinary. Her round face was like a bun, and her eyes were bright and lively.
âRecite the Three Character Classic.â Old Mr. Li sat cross-legged and ordered in a calm tone.
âAt the beginning of life, people are good by nature, similar in nature âŠâ
At this point, the girl was stuck.
Old Mr. Li was used to it and did not get angry. He pinched the space between his eyebrows and sighed.âWhy do you still only know these three sentences after half a month?â
This kind of stupid child was not worth getting angry at.
âMy father said,âone trick is enough to make you famous ,'â Xu linging said in a sweet voice.
Was this the place to use the âone move to eat all the foodâ technique ⊠Old Mr. Li was stunned for a moment, but then he remembered that the childâs father was a rough warrior, so he was not angry anymore.
âYou read the loudest every day, and you have no problem reading. Why canât you recite it when I ask you to? The sage said,âto seek knowledge from objects.â Have you ever reflected on yourself?â
âSir only taught me three sentences,â Xu linging said, confused.
The entire Hall was filled with laughter.
sit down, â said Mr. Li, waving his hand tiredly.
In this childâs family, only his second brother was a scholar, and he was also a student of the Yun Lu Academy. He really didnât know what kind of environment and education it was that brought up two children with such a huge difference.
He glanced at the water clock. It was time for dinner. Mr. Li coughed.âThereâs half an hour of mealtime. Remember not to speak when you eat.â
With that, he left the Academy and went to the backyard to enjoy his lunch.
The children were suddenly free and began to laugh and laugh. They took out food from their small cloth bags.
Xu lingyingâs lunch today was particularly sumptuous. There were crystal dumplings, plum fragrant cakes, fish meatballs, and a few top-grade cakes from the guiyue restaurant.
She had two to three times more food than the other children.
Xu lingying set it up in a very ritualistic manner. She swallowed her saliva. She had been thinking about the food in the cloth bag the entire morning.
In the entire school, there was no food more sumptuous and expensive than Xu lingyingâs. Of course, there was a reason why Xu lingyingâs lunch was so sumptuous.
Yesterday was the day of Xu dalangâs mourning. The Xu family had purchased a large amount of top-grade ingredients in preparation for a Grand burial.
Who knew that dalang Xu would return? after entertaining the Xu family, there was still a lot of delicious food left.
âIâll take your food,â
A chubby boy walked over to Xu Lingyinâs desk and looked down at her arrogantly.
The little fatty was the king of the children in the school. He was the tallest and strongest. He was a year older than Xu lingying and was seven years old this year.
Not only was he the tallest and strongest, but his family background was also the deepest. His parents were not surprising, but his granduncle was a rank 5 official in the Ministry of official personnel.
The Ministry of official personnel affairs was publicly acknowledged as the head of the six ministries, and the Wen selection division was responsible for appointing personnel. Among the four divisions of the Ministry of official personnel affairs, only the imperial examination company could compare to the Wen selection division.
âI wonât!â
Xu lingying protected the food and glared fiercely.
âYou want to get beaten up again?â Little Fattyâs eyes widened.
He was the one who had snatched Xu lingyingâs bracelet. The little girl had not given it to him at first, but he had pushed her to the ground, hit her twice, and then taken it away by force.
This stupid girl didnât cry or make a fuss, as if it was no big deal that the bracelet was gone.
After the little fatty returned home, he lied to his mother that the bracelet was picked up from the streets. His mother was very happy because the bracelet was pawned for eight taels of silver at the pawnshop.
Later on, the stupid girlâs mother rushed to the school to reason with her, but because Xu lingying did not point it out, the teacher stopped her fierce mother.
Thus, the little fatty knew that snatching this âclassmateâsâ bracelet was fine. He had silver and would not be punished by the adults.
In the first few days, he kept staring at Xu lingyingâs wrist, but after that one time, she stopped wearing the bracelet.
This stupid girl was easy to bully, but she wasnât worth it to be bullied in the past. This time, it was different. The little fatty could tell at a glance that those were pastries from the Osmanthus moon restaurant. He had been to the Osmanthus moon restaurant to eat them before, and they were delicious.
