Chapter 226 Am I still a human being?

"Dean Lin, I'm not fooling around. If the academy expels Xiao, I will leave too." Qu Qingshu said in a firm and resolute tone.

Dean Lin's face flushed with anger as he stared at Qu Qingshu and said, "Qu Qingshu, Qingyun Academy kicked you out, and we at Huaixian Academy are kind enough to take you in. If you want to leave, don't even think about taking the exam for the scholar next spring!"

Qu Qingshu clenched his hands tightly.

Xiao Jiayuan walked forward, pulled his sleeve, smiled at him and said, "Brother Qingshu, you will definitely be able to pass the exam and become a scholar next year."

"Hmph, if you don't come to Huaixian Academy, you, a scholar, won't be able to pass the exam. You won't even get a place!" Dean Lin threatened nakedly, staring at Qu Qingshu, as if he was sure that he would compromise.

"Jia Yuan, people still need to have their own persistence and bottom line. Otherwise, what's the point of reading a lot of books?"

Qu Qingshu looked at Xiao Jiayuan's worried eyes. He slowly raised his head and looked at Dean Lin with an increasingly determined look. He stood shoulder to shoulder with Xiao Jiayuan and said, "I want to advance and retreat together with classmate Xiao Jiayuan."

"Brother Qingshu." Xiao Jiayuan looked at Qu Qingshu in shock. Qu Qingshu did treat him very well in normal times, but this matter concerned Qu Qingshu's entire life.

"Mr. Qu, you don't have to..." Xiao Jiuyue started. Qu Qingshu straightened his back and said, "Miss Xiao, this matter actually has nothing to do with Jiayuan. People with different ideals cannot work together."

Xiao Jiuyue looked at him deeply and said nothing more.

"What a saying goes, people with different ideals cannot work together. From today on, you are no longer a student of Huaixian Academy!" Dean Lin said angrily.

Qu Qingshu started to take off his Huaixian Academy hat and coat without saying a word!

"I don't want to go to school here anymore!" Lei Yan rushed out and looked at Xiao Jiayuan and said, "I lost to you. I promised to grind ink for you. If you're not here, I won't go to school anymore!"

"Student Lei Yan!" Xiao Jiayuan was shocked again.

Lei Yan turned around and looked at his sister Lei Yan and said, "Second sister, you said that a spit is a nail, and what you say must be counted, right?"

Lei Yan wanted to step forward and cover Lei Yan's mouth. He was her dear brother. She applauded in her heart, but her parents had high hopes for Lei Yan. Lei Yan stepped forward and was about to speak when Lei Yan said, "Second sister, I think Jia Yuan is right."

"Get out, get out! If anyone of you doesn't want to stay in Huaixian Academy, get out now!" Dean Lin said with a sullen face.

There was silence on the field. Except for Lei Yan, everyone else was being held back by their elders or being held tightly and not allowed to speak.

…

"Just go, who cares about your shabby academy? From now on, our Lei family will not deliver goods to your academy!" Lei Yan originally wanted to talk to Dean Lin, saying that the child was impulsive, but who knew that Dean Lin would be sarcastic.

Lei Yan was immediately furious. In order for Lei Yan to study well in Huaixian Academy, the Lei family not only sent meat to Dean Lin and the teacher during festivals, but also sent snacks and candies from the grocery store in large bags!

Just consider it as a gift from the Lei family and give it to the dog to eat!

The door of the academy was slammed shut, and Lei Yan was furious.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you can't get into Huaixian Academy, right?" Lu Yarou looked at Lei Yan with a condescending look and said, "Why don't you beg me? Who knows, I might be able to help you."

"I'd rather beg a ghost than ask you for help!" Lei Yan glared at Lu Yarou with a stern face. He glared back at Madam Lu and pulled Lei Yan, saying, "Lei Yan, let's go!"

"Miss Xiao." Lei Yan pulled Lei Yan and quickly went to find Xiao Jiuyue. Seeing Xiao Jiuyue, she immediately smiled and asked, "Miss Xiao, now..."

Lei Yan paused, looked back at the closed gate of Huaixian Academy, and asked, "What will Xiao do in the future? Where will he go to school?" She was a little embarrassed, but for the sake of her brother's schooling, she had no choice but to ask.

"Miss Lei, you definitely still need to go to school." As soon as Xiao Jiuyue finished speaking, Lei Yan immediately said excitedly: "Then, can you bring Lei Yan with you?"

"Xiao Jiayuan, I promise to grind ink for you for a month." Lei Yan smiled at Xiao Jiayuan. At this moment, he had no idea what he would face after returning.

Xiao Jiayuan didn't say anything, he turned around and looked at Xiao Jiuyue.

Xiao Jiuyue patted his shoulder and said, "Since there is no suitable academy in the county, then please ask the teacher to come to your house and teach you yourself!"

"Where can we invite the gentleman?" Lei Yan asked.

"There's always a way out. I can always find a teacher." Xiao Jiuyue added, "If I can't find a teacher, I'll go to the provincial capital to study."

"Ah..." Lei Yan murmured, "If it really doesn't work, this is the only way. At worst, I can open a grocery store in the capital city."

"Miss Xiao, we'll be leaving first." Lei Yan pulled Lei Yan away in a hurry, and one could see that he was anxious.

"Sister, I'm sorry." Xiao Jiayuan lowered his head and stood in front of Xiao Jiuyue, like a child who had done something wrong.

"Silly boy, you won first place today, that's awesome!" Xiao Jiuyue praised.

Xiao Jiayuan raised his head, moved his lips, and finally said: "Sister, even if I can't go to the academy, I can still go to school at home!"

"Me too." Xiao Jiachen said the same thing.

"Okay, get in the car. We have prepared snacks for you." Xiao Jiuyue looked at them with a smile. The two little guys must be scared, right?

When they just left Huaixian Academy, those people didn't dare to approach them.

Xiao Jiuyue lowered her eyes slightly. She had long been accustomed to this situation. After Xiao Jiayuan and the others got on the carriage, Xiao Jiuyue looked at Qu Qingshu.

As if he knew what she was going to say, Qu Qingshu bowed and said, "Miss Xiao saved our Qu family and Chu Ang's life, and it's like giving them a new life. If I stand by and watch, and still stay in Huaixian Academy, would I still be considered a human being?"

After saying this, Qu Qingshu turned around and strode away.

Xiao Jiuyue looked at his departing back. He was only wearing a thin piece of clothing, and his thin figure seemed extremely tall at this moment.

Not everyone in this world is ungrateful.

"Miss, Mr. Qu is really a man!" Lianxin gave a thumbs up towards his back.

"He has principles and bottom lines. He will be a good official in the future." Xiao Jiuyue murmured. Even if there was no Huaixian Academy, she believed that they would be able to take the exam to become a scholar, and Jiayuan and Jiachen would be able to go to school!

In the carriage, Xiao Jiuyue pretended to be relaxed and played games with Xiao Jiayuan and Xiao Jiachen.

…

"Lei Yan, let me tell you, if your parents knew you couldn't go to school, they would definitely break your legs." Lei Yan led Lei Yan to the grocery store and went straight into the backyard. Looking at Lei Yan who was eating snacks, he thought, this brat is really careless.

"Second sister, you have to protect me." Lei Yan stuffed the snack into his mouth. He looked at Lei Yan and said, "Second sister, Xiao Jiayuan did nothing wrong. Why don't you let Xiao Jiayuan go to the academy? The dean used to praise Xiao Jiayuan often, but now he wants to drive him away after hearing that Xiao Jiayuan has family problems. I don't like this academy."
