Chapter 69: To our brilliant youth

Zhuang Jin also said loudly: "No wonder I always felt like something was missing. When Brother Xian mentioned it, I remembered it. Master Wu, what's wrong with you? We have done so much, and you didn't even give us a word of praise."

Gao Qi also criticized seriously: "That's right, Master, you are a little too ignorant!"

They are really young and really cocky.

They all looked at Master Wu expectantly, their eyes shining, with a look that said "Praise me now, praise me now".

If they had tails, they would have been up in the sky by now!

result.

Under the expectant gaze of the crowd, Wu Qinglan actually raised the ruler in his hand and said sternly: "You still dare to ask for praise? Although Cui Xian had no choice but to do something to help the seedlings grow faster,

"But you didn't even raise any doubts. It really pissed me off."

ah?

Everyone was looking forward to it, but they didn't expect to get such an answer, and they were all somewhat disappointed.

The result is the next moment.

Then Wu Qinglan suddenly laughed out loud.

He looked at his students with satisfaction and said, "Yes, as the Analects of Confucius says: If one does not act on what is right, he is not brave. Today, you have punished evil when you see it and fought for justice. In the future, you should be proud of this. And as your teacher, I am also proud of you."

"In the Mencius, Gongsun Chou I says: I am good at nurturing my great and righteous spirit... it is great and strong. Although you are young, you have read the books of sages and should be like spring grass breaking through the soil, young but strong and upright. If you nurture the great and righteous spirit in your heart, you will surely become pillars of society in the future."

"I, as a teacher, would like to use a sentence from the Mencius: If you are poor, you should improve yourself; if you are rich, you should improve the world."

"Today, punishing evil is a righteous act, and reading books is a way to cultivate oneself. I hope you can be like what is said in the Book of History: Zhouguan, and in the future, great achievements will come from determination, and great achievements will come from hard work!"

"Finally, I want to praise you again. Your performance today was good, very good!"

He boasted a lot.

The people around had rarely seen the Master teach, and could only understand the general idea, but that did not stop them from applauding and cheering.

Pei Jian and others were praised so much that their faces turned red.

But being surrounded by so many passers-by, I actually felt a little embarrassed and guilty.

Actually... they are not as good as the Master praises them to be!

"Thank you for your teachings, Master. We will keep them in mind."

Cui Xian bowed and thanked him.

Then he borrowed a pen and paper from a classmate's bookcase, and said to the students around him with a smile: "Everyone, today's event has come to an end. But the friendship of everyone helping each other with all their heart and soul will definitely not end here."

"So I would like to ask everyone to sign your names here! We will make a 'Record of Young Heroes Punishing Evil Classmates'. Every name recorded in this record is a young hero's meritorious service!"

"We can also call this a classmate record to record our brilliant and flamboyant youth!"

Such a "classmate record" does not have any substantial rewards.

But this is a testimony to their youth, fearlessness, and courage!

"good!"

"Today we are fortunate to be able to work with Brother Cui Xian to punish the wicked and eliminate evil."

"We should support each other in the future, just as Master said: Great achievements come from determination, and great success comes from hard work!"

The primary school students were very excited.

Under Cui Xian's leadership, everyone solemnly wrote their names in the "Classmate Record".

far away.

Ye Huaifeng had not left yet. He looked at Cui Xian, who was standing among the group of children with high spirits, and felt infinite emotion.

This is the 'leader'.

With a single call, countless people will respond and cheer for you.

I think that in a few years, there will definitely be a place for Nanyang students among the scholars!

After finishing writing "Classmate Record".

Cui Xian took the stack of manuscripts and handed them to Wu Qinglan with a smile: "Master, please leave your name as well."

Wu Qinglan was filled with emotion.

He knew that he also benefited from his student's fame today. After the publication of "Two Poems of Pity for the Peasants", his reputation as Cui Xian's teacher also rose.

With such an outstanding student, what more could one ask for!

Wu Qinglan solemnly wrote his name on it.

then.

Under the excited gaze of many students.

Wu Qinglan borrowed some red ink, and with a smile, drew a beautiful red flower on the title page of "Classmates' Record".

Give you a little red flower!

Just this one red flower made all the students very happy.

And today, there is obviously more than one thing that makes them happy and excited.

County Magistrate Ye Huaifeng walked over with a smile and said to them, "Let's ask the people in the yamen to take a copy of this 'Records of Young Heroes Punishing Evil'. I will order it to be included in the Nanyang County Annals so that future generations can admire the young heroes' style of punishing evil."

Wow!

The bunch of boys were so happy that they cheered loudly.

Afterwards, the 'young heroes' bowed to each other and said goodbye.

Pei Mansion.

Old Madam Pei had been looking outside the mansion for a long time.

Finally, Pei Jian came running back excitedly, and shouted from a distance: "Grandma, Grandma, let me tell you, my brother Xian and I did a great thing today!"

Madam Pei hugged her grandson in her arms and said excitedly: "Oh, I heard it, my dear grandson, you are so amazing!"

Not just the Pei Mansion.

This heartwarming scene was happening in Gao Qi's family, Li Heyu's family, Zhuang Jin's family, and the homes of hundreds of young men who participated in this incident.

The Cui family is no exception.

After returning home, Mrs. Cui, together with her two daughters-in-law, prepared a sumptuous meal.

A bright oil lamp was lit in the main room.

The whole family looked excited and in high spirits.

They are so happy!

Even Old Cui went for the first time and ordered a pot of sake.

The brothers Cui Xian and Cui Yu also got a small cup.

The whole family smiled and raised their glasses to celebrate: "Cheers to our family that works together for the same goal, and to our good future!"

Old Cui seldom drank, but because she was happy, she drank two more cups.

The next day, she woke up to a lot of noise.

A neighbor shouted excitedly outside: "Old sister-in-law of the Cui family, get up and open the door! The prefect, the deputy prefect, the county magistrate, and dozens of officials from the prefecture and county government have come to your house to express their condolences!"
