Chapter 123 Pei Xiang suddenly came to see her?
"Dad, the academy has an exam tomorrow, you have to help me with my homework tonight."
While eating, my brother's mouth was full of grease.
But he did not forget to tell Pei Yanli about the academy.
"take an exam?"
Cheng Shuyi looked at his son curiously. "What exam? Monthly exam? Or final exam?"
She is also modern in thinking.
It's only the end of November. Are the exams and winter vacation coming up so soon?
Pei Yanli explained on his son's behalf, "It's the academy's entrance exam. If you pass, you'll be promoted to the inner dormitory."
Yingtian Academy will also have an exam tomorrow.
The younger sister held the bowl in her hands, her head hanging low. She didn't even enjoy eating. She pouted and said, "I can't bear to leave my brothers Huaichang and Yanzhi."
When school was over today, the teacher called Shen Huaichang, Lin Yanzhi, and two other classmates over separately.
He said they had hope of getting promoted to a new dormitory and asked them to review their lessons well tonight.
Just now when she went to deliver the eight-treasure rice pudding, she saw that Brother Huaichang was already studying hard in front of the window and didn't even play with her.
"Chang'er and Yan'er can be promoted to higher houses, right?"
Cheng Shuyi thought about it and said, "Yes, it's time for them to move up to a new dormitory."
Chang'er and Yan'er are ten years old now, and Shengjing City is full of twelve or thirteen-year-old boys.
If they don't get promoted, they will probably fall behind in the imperial examinations.
And her two children are still at the age of playing in the mud.
"Don't be sad, Xuxu."
Cheng Shuyi picked up a piece of meat for the little girl and said, "Brother Huaichang and Brother Yanzhi just switched classes, not transferred schools. You can still go to and from school with them."
"Really?" The little girl was skeptical.
Pei Yanli, who dotes on his children, doesn't take this matter seriously at all.
"If Xu Xu can't bear to leave his two brothers, Dad can let you and Qi Qi go to study in the inner dormitory together."
It's just a matter of his words, what's the difficulty?
Cheng Shuyi stuffed a piece of vegetable heart into Pei Yanli's mouth and said, "Don't make things worse. Qiqi and Xuxu couldn't even keep up with the progress in the outer dormitory. If they go to the inner dormitory, they will really become idiots."
He skipped a grade because he was good at his studies, and he will be able to catch up with the progress if he goes there.
These two kids are not stupid.
But after all, they have only been in ancient times for half a year, and are only five and a half years old. It is already great that they can write calligraphy smoothly.
"You're such a mother."
Pei Yanli imitated the tone of the people in Yun City and complained about Cheng Shuyi.
Who would say that their child is an idiot?
"If you're worried about not being able to catch up, then just go home and study." Pei Yanli asked the two children for their opinions. "Dad will find a teacher for you to study at home. What do you think?"
There were many people in Shengjing City who invited teachers to their homes to teach them how to read and write.
Especially those who have daughters at home.
“No, no!”
The younger sister reacted strongly and immediately rejected Pei Yanli's proposal.
His brother also looked at him warily.
Pei Yanli was very confused and turned to ask Cheng Shuyi: "What happened to them?"
According to his experience, the two children's reactions must have happened before.
Cheng Shuyi was a little embarrassed and scratched his eyebrows. "I hired a tutor for them before, but they were very resistant."
As a new mother, I see everyone around me pushing their children to succeed.
She tried to hire a tutor for her two children, hoping to give them some elementary school courses while they were in kindergarten.
Make sentences, do addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, etc.
But within a month, the two kids started throwing tantrums and didn't want tutoring.
She started crying as soon as she entered class and her throat became inflamed from crying.
Cheng Shuyi had to quit her tutor.
Pei Yanli pondered for a moment after hearing this, then put down his bowl and chopsticks and said to his daughter in a didactic tone, "Xu Xu, growing up to be a better person is the true way to grow up."
"Brother Huaichang and Brother Yanzhi went to study in the inner quarters, and they grew up to be better people."
"If you can't bear to leave them, then you have to improve yourself and go to the inner quarters to study."
"My two brothers have gone to the inner dormitory and will never come back to the outer dormitory to accompany you. Do you understand?"
His daughter was only five years old, so Pei Yanli tried his best to explain things to her in plain language that she could understand.
"You're still young, so Dad won't force you. But growing up to be a better person requires hard work and effort. You can't just be willful and unhappy all the time."
His serious and solemn look was completely different from his previous daughter-slave look.
Not only was the little girl frightened by him, even Cheng Shuyi didn't dare to breathe.
Pei Yanli put on a fatherly air: "Xu Xu, nod when you understand."
The little girl opened her mouth and nodded blankly.
Pei Yanli smiled with satisfaction, "Eat quickly, Dad will show you your homework later."
Cheng Shuyi was completely impressed by him!
She thought Pei Yanli would dote on his child even more than she did.
I didn't expect that he was so clear-headed and had his own way of educating children.
That night.
The two kids are particularly hardworking.
Pei Yanli stayed with him until late at night, helping him memorize words, recite lessons, and do arithmetic.
It wasn't just the side rooms of Cheng's house where the candles were still burning.
Many of the houses nearby had lights on, as they were all studying hard for tomorrow's academy exam.
Early the next morning.
Cheng Shuyi took a shovel and went to the small cellar of the earth fire dragon to get the remaining charcoal to boil water.
Seeing that there was still a lot of charcoal left and the temperature was high, she threw a few sweet potatoes in and covered the sweet potatoes with the embers.
After using charcoal, Cheng Shuyi no longer needed to make a fire.
Light a fire directly in the stove using residual charcoal.
The hot water was boiling on the stove, and she went back to the room to wake up the two children.
But the two cubs have already woken up.
When the weather gets cold, they rarely get up on their own and usually have to be called.
After getting dressed and washing up, the two kids put on their small schoolbags.
Cheng Shuyi asked Pei Yanli to go to the small cellar to dig out the roasted sweet potatoes and give two to each of them as breakfast.
"Be careful, it's hot. Eat slowly."
The freshly baked sweet potatoes are still oozing with sugar and are warm, perfect for a chilly morning in Shengjing.
Cheng Shuyi wrapped the sweet potato in several pieces of paper and then wrapped it in a handkerchief before letting the child hold it in his hand.
"Go ahead."
"Mom, I'm going to take the exam——"
The two kids ran out holding roasted sweet potatoes.
Cheng Shuyi packed up, took a roasted sweet potato, and went out to the Pearl Tower.
As soon as she arrived at the Pearl Tower, an uninvited guest was already waiting for her at the door.
"Pei Xiang has met my cousin's wife."
Pei Xiang bowed towards Cheng Shuyi and saluted him solemnly.
Is the sun rising from the west?
Cheng Shuyi really looked up at the sky.
But today is cloudy and the sun is not out.
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
When Cheng Shuyi saw Pei Xiang, he didn't move forward and didn't want to go over.
She is Pei Yanli's cousin. Why would he go to her instead of Pei Yanli if he has something to do?
And call her cousin...
Pei Xiang was wrapped in a pure white cloak with thick fur on the collar and hem. When the wind blew, thousands of silver threads fluttered, making her oval face look as smooth as white jade.
She was holding a gilded hand warmer in her hand, and her onion-like nails were shining brightly.
There were also carriages and maids when traveling.
It seems that she was forced to go to the farm, and her life was extremely comfortable.
There is no impact at all due to the division of the government.
It really is a clan!
