After a brief moment of shock, Tang Shirong put down his chopsticks, stood up and bowed: "Boss?"

Tang Junchen's attitude was much worse. He still held the plate, leaned on the table, and snorted coldly.

Tang Shiyue also recognized that the person behind was the manager of the Tang Family Academy, so he knew who the "boss" in front was, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Tang Shirong invited the two to sit down. Tang Shiyue did not intend to interfere with how he handled the situation, so he just poured them some tea.

Although Xu Wenqu was well-known, he was really humble when getting along with others. Just like them, they sat on the doorstep of the east wing, eating in their hands, making it clear that they did not take them seriously.

So Tang Weishan and Manager Tang, who were sitting in front of the stone table, felt a little embarrassed.

After a while, Tang Weishan coughed.

He only found out about the winery yesterday, and quickly asked someone to inquire about it. He found out that Tang Shiyue had a very good relationship with the county magistrate's family. He was so anxious that he broke out in a sweat, and hurriedly asked someone to harness a carriage to go to Jubao Village.

On the way, I heard that Tang Shirong and Tang Junchen did not go to the county school, so I breathed a sigh of relief. Then I heard that they actually became bricklayers, and I was even more relieved, and I became calm.

So he said in a friendly manner: "Tang Xiaolang, what happened a few days ago, I now know that it was a misunderstanding. I was too impatient that day. You are too stubborn. You didn't even explain to me, which made it awkward for both of us. It was originally a good thing, but it turned out like this. It was not what we wanted. Fortunately, it has not reached the point where it cannot be repaired, and we can make up for it in time..."

...

...

Having said that, Tang Shirong took the opportunity to ask for forgiveness, and if he said a few generous words, the matter would be over.

He was able to save face and everyone was happy.

Tang Shirong said calmly, "I don't quite understand what you are saying. What did you misunderstand? What do you know now?"

Tang Shiyue almost laughed out loud.

My little brother is awesome! It’s so cool to confront him!

Tang Shiyue tilted her head and tugged at the corner of Xu Wenqu's clothes.

Xu Wenqu leaned slightly, and she whispered to him: "Learn this! This is how scholars quarrel! Don't use dirty words when you curse people, just use light words to poke your heart, and make you bleed. Do you understand?"

She raised her palm up and made a little gesture of blood gushing out.

Xu Wenqu: "..."

Qi Jing jumped down from the eaves, lifted his clothes, and sat down beside her silently.

Tang Weishan didn't expect that this kid would be so ungrateful, and his face looked a little strange.

Especially those people were still eating. Although I didn’t know what they were eating, I could smell the acetic acid and my mouth was watering.

Tang Weishan was a little annoyed, and said in a deep voice: "Don't dwell on the past! Don't delay your studies! Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, you should return to the clan school as soon as possible! Hanging out with a bunch of bricklayers, isn't it embarrassing?"

Tang Shirong said calmly, "Speaking of returning to the clan school, I have something else to tell you. The other day the county magistrate came here and tested my knowledge. Before he finished, he said that I was learning without knowing the right method. The teaching method of the clan school seems to be inappropriate... Please pay attention to it."

Tang Weishan was stunned, and immediately became angry and glared at him, "Everyone is studying well, but you didn't learn well, and you blame the clan school! How can this make sense!"

He suppressed his anger and said, "Young man, don't be too stubborn. Even if the clan school has some shortcomings, it is much better than your closed-door hard training. You just want to fight for your will, waste your time, and achieve nothing. Isn't it a joke?"

The manager also said, "The boss has come in person, and you are still putting on airs! If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again! You will regret it later!"

Xu Wenqu suddenly put the finished plate gently on the table with a slight sound.

Everyone looked at him subconsciously. Xu Wenqu took out a handkerchief, wiped his lips elegantly, and then smiled and said, "A Rong, A Chen, are you willing to be my disciples?"

When Tang Shirong and the other man heard this, they were both surprised and delighted.

This surprise was really too big, and it came just in time. The two looked at each other, and without hesitation, they turned over and knelt down, saying happily, "Master!"

Xu Wenqu nodded gracefully.

Tang Weishan never expected that Cheng Yaojin would suddenly appear. He was stunned for a moment before he asked, "Who are you?"

"You don't need to know this," Xu Wenqu said calmly, "You just need to know that they are now my disciples, so you can accept them."

The ancients believed that a teacher for one day is a father for life. Since Xu Wenqu became Tang Shirong's teacher, he could indeed be the master of this family.

Tang Shiyue was so happy that she immediately stood up and said, "Then you two, please come in!"

"Did you hear that?" Tang Junchen was very relieved and said, "We have a master now! We don't need your broken clan school anymore! You just find a trumped-up charge to drive us away, and then you want us to go back. You have the nerve to call this a place of teaching and educating people with such double-faced behavior!"

Tang Wei pointed at him angrily.

But he still had his dignity to save, so he couldn't refuse to leave. He gritted his teeth, turned away, and no one saw him off.

Standing at the door, he was still shaking with anger, pointing at the gate and said, "You are just a poor peasant, and you still want to teach people? You still want to pass the imperial examination? Bah! You are dreaming! You will never achieve it in this life!"

Just at this moment, someone passed by carrying a load on his shoulder and stopped immediately: "What are you doing?"

Without waiting for his answer, the young man shouted at the top of his voice: "Master Tang! Master Tang!"

Tang Shiyue came out in response, and the man pointed at him and said, "This person is pointing at your door and scolding you!"

"What bad luck! Really bad luck!" Tang Weishan felt that everything was going wrong today. He couldn't even curse anyone and wanted to leave in a huff.

Tang Shiyue suddenly thought of something and shouted, "Stop! How can you be so vicious that you actually went to someone's house and cursed him to fail the imperial examination! Are you bullying us because there is no one in Jubao Village?"

At that moment, the house was still being built next door and there were people everywhere. When they heard the quarrel here, they immediately gathered around.

The villagers stick together. No matter what happens, especially when someone is bullied, the whole village will come together. Moreover, Tang Shiyue now has some prestige in the village, so everyone is even more concerned and asks: "Master Tang, what happened!"

Tang Shiyue said angrily, "This is the owner of that clan school. He came to tell my brother to go back. My brother said that the county magistrate said that the clan school is not good and he would not go back. He then started to curse and curse my brother and the clan brother that they would never pass the imperial examination in this life!"

How can this be?

Everyone knew the original rumor, and immediately started cursing.

Tang Weishan was actually from Jubao Village, but he moved to the town a long time ago. He had been gone for twenty years and didn't recognize many people. Besides, there were only women around him now, which was like a scholar meeting a soldier. He couldn't explain himself even if he was right.

Besides, he didn't care.

Tang Weishan wanted to leave but couldn't. He couldn't talk his way out of it. No matter how he tried to leave, the women kept pushing him back. He was so angry that he kept saying, "This is outrageous! This is disgraceful!"

Tang Shiyue saw that the time was almost right, so he said, "Mr. Tang, since you said that my brother can't win, do you dare to make a bet with me?"

Tang Weishan stared at her for a long while before asking, "What bet?"

Tang Shiyue said: "If my brother wins, you will reduce the tuition fees of all the students in the clan school! Do you dare to bet?"

Tang Weishan asked: "Why?"

She said, "Just because you are so rude and you are misleading young people, you don't have to dare to do it. Then let's go to the county government to seek justice!"
