Chapter 15 The gentleman behind the screen is very mysterious
Lin Xi could only keep smiling. Gu Songtao's expectant gaze fell directly on her, and she had to pretend not to see it.
God knows why this person suddenly brought up this matter. How could she, a modern person, play the piano?
Xiao Yongyan, who was standing by, saw Lin Xi's dilemma and said at the right time, "It's been a bumpy journey, and I've lost the mood to play the piano."
After hearing what Xiao Yongyan said, Gu Songtao didn't know what to say. Instead, he reflected on what he had done. He was exiled all the way from the capital to this remote place. How could he have the mood to play the piano? He was too rude.
Lin Xi said nothing the whole time and acted very politely, as if he was really heartbroken about it.
"Young Master, it's rare that it's still early today, why don't you stay here and explain the article to the students?" Gu Songtao said.
Xiao Yongyan originally didn't want to do so, but Gu Songtao kept inviting him.
Lin Xi also felt that it would be a shame if Xiao Yongyan did not put his knowledge to good use after reading so many books of sages.
In the end, Xiao Yongyan could not resist the persuasion of the two and reluctantly agreed.
However, he also has his own insistence, and only teaches behind a screen without showing his face.
Such conditions were not excessive, so Gu Songtao agreed without any hesitation.
An hour later.
In the lecture hall of Songtao Academy, a screen was suddenly moved up. All the students were curious and focused their attention, trying to figure out what was going on.
But Xiao Yongyan deliberately concealed his true identity, so no one could tell his true identity.
Gu Songtao briefly introduced Xiao Yongyan, of course by the name Mr. Shuer.
Lin Xi had nothing to do, so she stayed aside to listen to Xiao Yongyan's lecture. This was the first time she looked at Xiao Yongyan seriously. He was sitting behind the screen, and his whole body was only a silhouette. Even so, she could judge that the person behind the screen was upright and upright.
Xiao Yongyan, who was giving the lecture, had a calm tone and could cite extensive references on any topic. His speech was fascinating, but he would get back to the topic in the blink of an eye.
After the class, all the students were deeply impressed by Xiao Yongyan's charm.
However, in order to conceal his appearance, Xiao Yongyan left immediately after finishing the class.
As for the legend of Mr. Qi Shuer that began to spread in Fenghe Town, that is a story for later.
…
Having not taken care of the fields at home for a while, Lin Xi decided to go to the fields to see how the seedlings were growing.
Perhaps because the source of the seeds is extraordinary, the green seedlings in the rice fields are very healthy and growing well.
Because Linxi's rice fields are next to the back mountain and were reclaimed from wasteland, few people pass by, so no one has noticed that the rice seedlings in Linxi's rice fields are different from those of ordinary people.
There are still several months before the rice harvest, and Lin Xi always feels that the rice fields cannot be wasted.
[Ding, host needs detected, it is recommended that the host activate the analysis room function]
Lin Xi felt a little strange, "What does the analysis room mean?"
[The analysis room is one of the special features of the Shennong system, which can design planting plans based on the existing rice field environment.]
Lin Xi's eyes lit up. This function was the most practical for her.
[Does the host spend 1 experience point to enable this function? ]
"Open it, of course I have to open it." Lin Xi has earned 20 experience points during this period, so he is not in a hurry.
[Successfully deducted 1 experience point]
[Analysis room function is being turned on]
[Analyzing the spatiotemporal properties of land]
[Program generation in progress...]
[The host's current rice fields are suitable for growing rice, the water is suitable for raising golden carp, and it is recommended to raise ducks on the water surface]
Hearing this, Lin Xi suddenly remembered that she seemed to have seen similar operations when she went to a farm house before.
People raise fish, ducks and crayfish in the rice fields.
Lin Xi thought about it and realized that if he wanted to raise crayfish, he would have to lay wire mesh underneath to prevent them from burrowing into the mud. This technology was difficult to implement in ancient times.
But raising fish in rice fields is not a problem for her at all.
However, she had never heard of what kind of fish fry the golden carp mentioned in the Shennong system was.
[Ding, host's needs are detected. Congratulations to the host for opening the animal panel.]
Immediately afterwards, an identical screen extended in front of Lin Xi's eyes, but this time the content was all about animals.
Lin Xi opened the animal mall and saw golden carp fry for sale.
However, with 50 experience points, one can only buy 100 of them. Lin Xi cannot afford that now as she only has 18 experience points.
When Xiao Yongyan returned home from the fields, dinner had already been prepared.
In fact, he was not a good cook, but after watching Wu Erniu cooking every day a few days ago, he actually learned how to cook.
At first, the food he made didn't look good, but as time went on, his skills improved and the food he made tasted extremely delicious, so much so that later on, almost all the cooking work was contracted to Xiao Yongyan.
Although it was just light porridge and side dishes, it was enough for Lin Xi.
Halfway through the meal, Xiao Yongyan suddenly put down his chopsticks and said, "Xi'er."
Suddenly hearing someone calling her like that, Lin Xi felt goose bumps all over her body. She turned her head stiffly and looked at Xiao Yongyan, "What's wrong?"
"You have to get up in the middle of the night every day to make steamed buns. It's really too tiring. In my opinion, you might as well take a break." Xiao Yongyan said while paying attention to Lin Xi's expression.
Seeing that she didn't seem to be annoyed, he continued, "I have already made an agreement with Steward Gu today. From now on, I will correct essays for students of Songtao Academy, and he will pay me two taels of silver per month, which is enough for us to live on."
Lin Xi then understood that Xiao Yongyan wanted her to stop working so hard.
"You see, we live in the countryside now. In fact, there is not much to spend money on. We can save at least a dozen taels of silver a year, and we can renovate the house in a few years." Xiao Yongyan continued.
"If I give up the Koi Bun business and go do something else, will you stop me?" Lin Xi wanted to verify whether Xiao Yongyan was a guy with a serious male chauvinism.
If he just didn't want to do a business that was too tiring, then she could understand that. But if this guy was just not satisfied with a woman going out in the public eye to make money, then that was another matter.
"If you really want to do something else, I won't stop you as long as it doesn't harm you." Xiao Yongyan said seriously.
Xiao Yongyan was a man who spoke with great authority and always kept his word, so Lin Xi had no doubt about it.
"Okay, I will consider the Koi Bun business, but on the other hand, I also want to make it clear in advance that I won't stay at home all the time. I would rather have my own career." Lin Xi looked at Xiao Yongyan with burning eyes.
If Xiao Yongyan said something inappropriate at this moment, Lin Xi was ready to turn hostile to Xiao Yongyan on the spot.
Few women would say "I want to have my own career", and Xiao Yongyan was really shocked by Lin Xi's remarks.
But after a moment she smiled brightly again, worthy of being his wife.
