In his previous life, Cui Xian was a PhD in Chinese Language and Literature from a prestigious university.
In this life, he has transmigrated into an impoverished family in ancient times.
...Cui family, on the ridge of the field.
Gao Qi was sweating profusely from exhaustion, and panted as he said, "It turns out that harvesting wheat is so hard!"
He just picked up the sickle excitedly and started working.
As a result, it was over in less than a cup of tea.
Cui Xian wasn't in much better condition either. He lay next to Gao Qi and kept wiping the sweat off his face.
Captain Gao, the group of soldiers, and the adults of the Cui family were still busy in the fields.
A few young ones were resting under a tree on the edge of the field.
Cui Xuan brought over two bowls of cold water and said with a smile, "Brother, young master, drink some water to quench your thirst."
Cui Xian hurriedly took it, gulped it down, and felt refreshed all over.
On the contrary, Gao Qi, who was usually the loudest, thanked him shyly and then drank the water politely.
Ouch!
You're just a tiny kid and you're still shy.
Cui Xian laughed strangely beside him.
This made Cui Xuan run away in embarrassment.
Gao Qi pretended to be embarrassed and annoyed: "Okay, brother Xian, you dare to laugh at me. Let me see how I deal with you!"
The two of them were making a fuss on the ridge of the field.
Cui Yu, who was harvesting wheat in the field, was soon sent over by his grandmother to rest, with a cloth school bag in his hand.
"Cui Yu, come and rest and drink some water to quench your thirst."
Gao Qi was very familiar with the man and asked with a smile, "What is this in your hand?"
Cui Yu drank the water and sat down next to the two of them.
Then he took out a stack of papers from his cloth book bag and said seriously, "These are the characters I learned to write after I started school, and the excerpts from the Three Character Classic."
"Brother, here you go. During this time, I will teach you to be enlightened."
Cui Yu always felt uncomfortable because he used the money his younger brother used to work as a schoolboy to start his education.
therefore.
He wrote down all the knowledge points he learned in school and then came back to teach them to A-di.
But when Gao Qi heard Cui Yu's words, he looked strange.
Brother Xian...does he still need to learn the Three Character Classic? He has already easily learned all the enlightenment books now!
Before Gao Qi could say what was in his mind.
The headman's voice could be heard from far away, shocking the people who were harvesting wheat in the fields.
"Brother Xian! Sister-in-law of the Cui family! The two masters of the Pei Mansion and the scholar husband of the Pei clan school are here to visit you!"
Wh, what?
Two juren gentlemen!
Oh my god!
Many villagers who were working looked up and saw the men in long robes behind the head of the village. They hurriedly dropped their sickles and rushed over to kowtow.
The Cui family looked over there in a daze, unable to believe their eyes.
Old Cui looked at him carefully and said with a red face, "He is wearing a long gown, a gauze hat, a belt, and black boots. He is definitely a juren!"
"Are they... also here to look for Brother Xian?"
The corners of her mouth were frozen with joy.
Only Gao Qianhu and his son Gao Qi looked angry.
The Pei family must have changed their mind and are preparing to take Xian'er back.
How shameless!
Cui Xian was surprised when he heard the noise: "Why is Big Brother here? And Master Wu and the two masters of the Pei family are here too."
He expected Master Wu to come.
But I never expected that the two scholars would also come!
Gao Qi muttered, "Why else? To rob people."
But after Pei Jian came over, he didn't rush to "rob people" immediately.
He shouted excitedly, "Brother Xian! I finally found you. Master Wu, my father, and my grandfather all said that you are a genius!"
"They said you wrote some kind of calligraphy and that you are the future calligraphy master. They also said that your poem Ode to the Goose is a thousand times better than Zhao Yaozu's Ode to Hsinchu."
ah?
Gao Qi was confused.
Upon hearing this, the Cui family and the people of Hexi Village were also stunned.
Wu Qinglan pushed Pei Jian away in disdain and looked at Cui Xian excitedly, his face flushed, with an expression as if he was looking at a 'treasured child': "Cui Xian, I finally found you!"
"Great! I finally found you!"
"The most powerful child prodigy in Nanyang, no, the most powerful genius in Henan, and even in the whole of Daliang!"
"I have been looking for you so hard!"
Hearing this, countless people present widened their eyes.
Old Mrs. Cui was even more shocked, with excitement flashing in her cloudy eyes.
But what stunned everyone was that the scholar and the two juren seemed to be more excited and anxious than them.
Pei Kaitai pushed Wu Qinglan away and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't talk about these facts that are recognized by everyone! We need to determine some issues first!"
"Cui Xian, let me ask you. Did you write down three pieces of calligraphy in the side room of the clan school?"
"The first one was when you first learned to write. The second one was when you wrote on the second day. The third one was when you learned to write, one month later."
Cui Xian blinked and blamed himself: "Yes. The first time I wrote, I copied someone else's calligraphy. My writing was not good, and the teacher scolded me for being a piece of rotten wood."
Wu Qinglan felt so guilty that he couldn't breathe.
Then, under everyone's stunned gaze, he actually held Cui Xian's hand and bowed to apologize: "It is my fault that I was shortsighted and mistook a genius for a piece of rotten wood! I am so ashamed of you!"
"Your handwriting is full of spirit and elegance. If you study hard in the future, this Daliang..."
"No! Five hundred years before the Daliang Dynasty, and five hundred years after, you will definitely have a place in the literary and calligraphy circles!"
"You are destined to become a calligrapher revered by all the scholars!"
Pei Kaitai nodded repeatedly: "Brother Qinglan is right! Cui Xian, do you know how amazing your talent is? It is definitely the only one I have ever seen in my life!"
It was quiet all around.
Everyone looked at the eight-year-old Cui Xian in shock, and then they came to their senses.
