Chapter 268 The First Lesson of School
Her sudden voice brought silence to the entire Enlightenment Hall.
Yunyue turned around and saw Xu Jiaojiao's shocked and angry face appear at the door of the Enlightenment Hall.
"It's you!"
She immediately rolled up her sleeves and was about to rush forward, but Baoya's little hand patted her shoulder, and her little butt, which had just been raised, sat down again.
"Baoya, don't stop me," Yunyue said angrily, "I'm going to teach her a lesson!"
Baoya didn't say anything, but waved her little hand at her, then glanced at Qi Mo.
Yunyue then remembered that they were going to school and were in the academy.
Suddenly, the momentum that could defeat a group of people just now disappeared.
Yunyue secretly glanced at Qi Mo's dark face, secretly stuck out her tongue, and without paying any attention to Xu Jiaojiao, she quickly sat up straight.
Xu Jiaojiao didn't care about all this. She glanced at the other people in the room, then at Baoya, Yunhua and Yunyue, with a look of contempt in her eyes.
All the children who come here to study are from the town, except Baoya and her three sisters, who are from the village.
"Little village girl."
She muttered, carrying her bookcase, and swaggered to the empty seat next to Yunhua, sat down, and reached out to grab Yunyue's collar.
As a result, as soon as he stretched out his hand, Qi Mo hit him hard with a ruler.
“Ouch!”
Xu Jiaojiao cried out in pain, and a red mark suddenly appeared on her little hand.
She curled her lips, tears welled up in her eyes, and she said delicately, "You...you dare to hit me!"
"Everyone is waiting for you on the first day of class."
Qi Mo's face turned ugly. "Sit down. You are here to study, not to quarrel!"
"I don't care what conflicts you had before. Once you enter the academy, you must focus on your studies and put everything else aside. Anyone who causes trouble again can go home!"
Xu Jiaojiao lowered her head and dared not say a word.
She had thought that this young gentleman would at least consider her mother's kindness and take care of her, but she had not expected him to be so unkind.
Her mother, Xu Huiqin, is the owner of a big restaurant in Ping'an Town that attracts customers. She is a well-known figure in the town, and many wealthy businessmen like to go to her house for dinner.
This Qi Mo is indeed an old-fashioned person who doesn't understand the ways of the world!
Qi Mo had no idea what was going on in her mind. He simply didn't like children who disrupted the discipline in his class.
Seeing that all seven children in the enlightenment class had arrived, he solemnly asked everyone to briefly introduce themselves.
After all, in the next few years, we will all be classmates.
After some introductions, Baoya also got to know the three unfamiliar boys.
The boy who sits upright, reading a book, and wearing a pine green jacket is called Fang Xian. He is six years old and is the youngest son of County Magistrate Fang.
The fat, big-eared man in the purple robe was called Lin Huarong, eight years old, the second son of the owner of the Lin's Pawn Shop in Ping'an Town.
The last thin boy named Zhang Shun was also the oldest among all the students. He was thirteen years old and his father worked as a waiter at Xu Jiaojiao's house.
Baoya frowned slightly as she saw him speaking with his eyebrows lowered and his voice as soft as a mosquito.
She knew this behavior very well. It was like this when she was in the Chen family.
After everyone had introduced themselves, Qi Mo led them to open the book and began to read with his head shaking. Then he taught them to recognize words word by word and explained the meaning of sentences.
Because they arrived late in the morning, it was time for lunch break soon.
As soon as Qi Mo said the word "class is over", Baoya, Yunhua and Yunyue rushed out of the Enlightenment Hall like horses that had broken free from their reins, and went to the nearby Qiuzhi Hall to find Yun Chengfu.
The older kids in the Qiuzhi Hall next door are all studying very conscientiously.
Baoya and the other two rushed to the door and stopped, then lay down in front of it and looked inside, but no one went in.
Qi Mo also came over at this time, looked at the three neat little heads, shook his head and chuckled.
Standing at the door, he announced, "It's noon now. You guys can take a break from class."
After hearing his words, the students who were studying inside immediately stood up. Some stretched, some sorted out their books, and some sat upright and motionless, still studying hard.
Yun Chengfu was the first one to come out. He had seen the three little heads lying at the door just now.
“Big Brother!”
“Big Brother!!”
“Big Brother!!!”
Baoya, Yunhua and Yunyue said in unison.
Yun Chengfu smiled so hard that his teeth couldn't be seen. He reached out and touched their heads one by one: "Well, did you listen to Mr. Xiao Qi in the first class?"
"Yes!" The three of them agreed again.
His classmates came out one after another, and when they saw the three little girls, their eyes were full of smiles.
One of them said, "Jinzhi, you weren't this enthusiastic before when leaving class. It turns out you have three younger sisters waiting for you."
Another person also said, "Yes, it's great that brothers and sisters can study together. It's a pity that I'm the only child in my family, so I'm afraid I won't have this blessing."
"Jinzhi, you have three sisters. Why don't you give me one?"
A young scholar with slender eyebrows and eyes, wearing a cloud-colored long gown, walked out, put his hand on Yun Chengfu's shoulder, and joked.
Yun Chengfu rolled his eyes at him mercilessly: "No thanks."
The scholar laughed heartily: "You're so stingy! Just accepting a godparent would be fine. Look, that little bun. I've got my eye on that one. He's so cute."
He was referring to Baoya.
Yun Chengfu's face darkened, he turned his head and rolled his eyes at him, saying angrily, "Linyuan!"
"Hahaha!"
Wen Caichuan laughed a few times, patted Yun Chengfu on the shoulder, then walked past him and went to the academy cafeteria.
"Hey, Jinzhi, you still can't take a joke."
Yun Chengfu took a look at his background and shook his head helplessly. He was obviously a scholar, but he was still so frivolous.
"Come on, big brother will take you to the cafeteria." He called Baoya and the other three.
Yucai Academy has its own dining hall, and the cooks are an elderly couple. It is said that Qi Mo is kind-hearted and wants to give these two elderly people a way to make a living.
Baoya, Yunhua and Yunyue had lunch with Yun Chengfu, and then went back to the Enlightenment Hall to take a short rest.
They didn't waste any time and when they returned to the Enlightenment Hall, they found that Fang Xian had already sat down in his seat, buried in his book.
Seeing how serious he was, Baoya looked at him curiously.
Just then, Qi Mo came in from outside and placed a small wooden food box on Fang Xian's table.
"Mr. Xiao Qi."
Fang Xian heard the sound of the food box hitting the table, then he looked up and saw it was Qi Mo, and called out respectfully.
Qi Mo nodded: "Master Fang asked me to remind you to eat."
Fang Xian glanced at the food box on the table and his face suddenly turned red.
A little embarrassedly said: "It's already noon, I didn't even notice it."
When Baoya saw his sudden realization, her grape-like eyes widened in shock.
Incredibly, he said, "Third sister, fourth sister, there are actually people in this world who forget to eat?!"
Doesn't he feel hungry?
