"Yes, yes, yes." The dean nodded repeatedly, "If you don't want to teach, no one will force you."
The dean shed bitter tears, thinking about how much effort he had made to trick a juren into their academy.
It doesn’t matter if I don’t teach, I can even ride on his head and shit on him.
There has never been a juren in a county town like theirs, let alone one that could teach there.
Even the successful candidates in the provincial capital city would not necessarily go out to teach unless they had compelling reasons.
Mr. Jiang was his classmate in his early years. After passing the imperial examination, he never thought of becoming an official.
He was used to a free and easy life. After being tricked into coming here, he felt that the atmosphere in their academy was good, so he just stayed there.
Apart from anything else, even if he didn't teach, if you encountered a problem that the teachers couldn't solve, you could just ask him and he would be able to solve it.
A juren is a juren after all. His knowledge is there, like a stabilizing force.
"That's good, let's just settle this." Mr. Jiang made the decision.
"Okay then... I'll go talk to Boss Chen." The dean didn't expect that this would actually come to pass. Their academy is about to welcome its first illiterate student.
Wow, if this gets out, will it really not affect the reputation of the academy?
Will others suspect that their college will not be able to continue...
They accept all kinds of people.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Mr. Jiang immediately changed the subject, "Wait, I'm here in person. When you go over, ask Boss Chen if he can give me a dozen kilograms of braised food first."
Dean: “…”
Mr. Jiang waved his sleeves at the dean in disdain, "What are you looking at?"
Dean: "So you came here for food, too..."
Mr. Jiang laughed, "What else? Are you not one?"
He made it sound so righteous. If he didn't want to, he wouldn't have said it at all.
Dean: “…”
Hehe, I didn’t expect that he saw through me again.
What a keen eye.
At least the other "stupid" teachers in the academy didn't see it.

When Zhao Fengtian learned that he was going to study at Yuelu Academy.
He was completely confused.
He looked at Chen Shuilian in disbelief, wanting to know what his mother had done to allow him to study at Yuelu Academy.
He wouldn't even dare to dream of that.
Zhao Maizhou looked at his brother who was already scared silly, smiled and patted his shoulder, "This is a good thing, why are you still silly?"
Zhao Fengtian touched his forehead dizzily and said, "No, I just doubted my ears, maybe I heard it wrongly."
"Haha, I heard you right." Chen Shuilian said happily, "You prepare at home today, and I will take you to register at the academy tomorrow."
"This, so fast?" Zhao Fengtian was not mentally prepared. He was told so suddenly that he could enter Yuelu Academy, the most famous academy in the county. He didn't know how to face those teachers.
"Not soon enough. Since you want to study, you'd better start as soon as possible." Chen Shuilian was afraid that the dean would go back on his word. She would only be completely relieved if Fengtian entered the academy as early as possible.
The more she thought about it, the happier she felt. This was Yuelu Academy.
She actually let her son study here!
This time smoke is really coming out of the Zhao family’s ancestral grave.
