Chapter 457 The teachers were arguing until their faces turned red!
In the evening, when Qin Zhizhi came back from the shop and went to her mother-in-law's yard, she heard laughter and chatter from afar in the room.
Qin Zhizhi guessed that the registration for the academy must have gone smoothly because her second uncle's voice was extremely cheerful.
Seeing Qin Zhizhi coming in, several people hurriedly invited Qin Zhizhi to come and sit down.
Qin Zhizhi asked with a smile, "I heard my second uncle's laughter as soon as I entered the yard, but what happened?"
"Hahaha, Zhizhi, you guessed it right. Second uncle told you that your cousins went to the academy to register today and everything went smoothly."
Mu Xuan couldn't wait to share the interesting things that happened in the academy today with his nephew's wife.
"Lei'er, Bo'er, and I were extremely nervous. I didn't sleep well last night and woke up early this morning, fearing that they would be rejected by the academy."
"But when we got to the academy, the teachers and your father-in-law were fighting over them, and they almost got into a fight."
Mu Xuan didn't expect that scholars could be so fierce when arguing.
"Is there such a thing?" Qin Zhizhi asked curiously.
"Yes, my brother-in-law is very famous. When we first arrived, the teacher thought we were going to see Jingshu and the prince. When my brother-in-law asked the teacher if he would be willing to accept two more students, the teacher was so excited."
"Yes, cousin, the three of us didn't know what happened, and those teachers rushed over?"
"That's easy. The teacher must have thought you were talented in studying, so he wanted to take you in."
Qin Zhizhi roughly guessed the reason, but seeing how happy everyone was, how could she spoil the fun?
"At first, my fourth brother and I thought so too. We thought the teachers at Qingshan Academy didn't need to assess students' academic performance, but could tell their future prospects by looking at their faces. It turns out we were overthinking it."
Murray felt ashamed when he thought about the stupid thoughts he and his fourth brother had at that time.
"Then why is the teacher so eager to accept you?" Jiang asked curiously.
Her husband has been choosing academies for his son and nephew, and his family has also used their connections. Now that the teachers are fighting for them, she is very curious.
My son and nephew are indeed very hardworking in their studies, but they are not so good that they would be competed for by the teacher.
"Hahaha, of course the master can't read faces, but when the master heard that they were Jing Huai's cousins, he immediately came to grab them."
Mu Xuan laughed heartily. His nephew was really amazing. He made him proud, and even his son and nephew benefited from it.
"Hahaha, I see. Our Jing Huai is the top scholar in the imperial examinations. Which teacher wouldn't want a student like him?"
Mr. Mu smiled happily, his grandson was really amazing.
"Dad, you don't know that not only Jing Huai is a good student, but Jing Shu and Shi Zi are also good students. The teacher thinks that they are Jing Huai and Jing Shu's cousins, so they must be good."
When those teachers were fighting over people, Mu Xuan was watching the fun with great interest from the side.
"Two teachers were arguing fiercely, their faces flushed. They were saying that the Qin brothers had done very well in the exams this year, but they didn't get Jing Huai, Jing Shu, or the Prince, and they missed out on the Qin brothers again. This time, they must get Mu Er and Bo Er."
Mu Xuan vividly described the scene of the teachers arguing with each other, and the others listened attentively.
"Second brother, who are the Qin brothers?" Old Madam Mu was stunned and asked curiously.
"Grandmother, my eldest and second brothers entered high school at the same time as my husband. My husband was the top scorer, my eldest brother was the third, and my second brother was the first in the second class."
"So impressive, no wonder the Master is fighting for her!" Master Mu couldn't help but praise her. His grandson's wife's family was also quite impressive.
"Dad, there's more. This year, Zhizhi's two cousins both graduated from high school at the same time. Zhizhi's fifth brother is studying in the academy with Jingshu." Mrs. Mu explained to everyone with a smile.
"My cousin's wife is amazing!"
Mu Lei and Mu Bo were already numb. The people from their aunt's family and cousin's family were so amazing and so talented in studying. They were under so much pressure.
"Studying requires not only a certain amount of talent but also diligence. You should study hard in the future. If you don't understand something, you can ask your cousin."
Qin Zhizhi is well aware of the hard work of studying. There is no such thing as gaining something for nothing in the world. No one is born a top student. Acquired efforts are equally important.
"I understand, cousin. We must work hard and not bring shame to my cousin or the Mu family."
"Grandfather doesn't expect much from you. It would be fine if you can pass the exam and become a scholar!"
Mr. Mu supports his grandsons to study. It is not necessary for them to become officials, but they can learn knowledge.
"Grandfather, can't you ask more of us? Otherwise, how can we be motivated?"
"You've always said that my third brother and I are most like our aunt. We must have inherited her talent for reading."
Mu Lei and Mu Bo decided to work hard and take their cousin as their goal.
"Well said, you have ambition. Don't be like your father and your second uncle. Study hard. Grandfather has high hopes for you."
Master Mu was really happy today. Coming to the capital, his grandsons not only went to the best academy, but also regained their confidence.
"Dad, Mom, we made the right decision to come to the capital. Fortunately, we didn't wait for big brother, otherwise Lei'er and Bo'er would have to wait even longer to go to the academy."
Seeing that her son and nephew were so enthusiastic about studying, Jiang decided to set off for the capital immediately, which was a perfect decision.
"That's right. If we were waiting for your eldest brother, he would probably still be at home now."
Mr. Mu and Mrs. Mu were also in a very happy mood.
"Now that Lei'er and Bo'er are studying with Jingshu and the others, it's quite convenient. When they have free time, let them come to the house more often and let Jinghuai tutor them."
Mrs. Mu felt that her eldest son had taught her second son, nephew, and daughter very well.
Let the two nephews and the eldest son supervise them, and the effect should be good.
"Aunt, you are so kind to us. We will honor you for the rest of our lives."
Mu Lei and Mu Bo were overjoyed when they heard this. Their cousin was the top scholar in the imperial examination and was currently working in the Hanlin Academy. It was a great blessing for them that he could give them some guidance.
"They are all trivial matters, but your cousin is quite strict, so you must study hard, otherwise if your cousin beats you, your aunt will not help you."
Mu quickly took precautions in advance, as she never cared about Jing Huai's teaching.
"Don't worry, little sister, Jing Huai can beat you as much as he wants. If Jing Huai says no, I'll do it myself."
Mu Xuan was eager to try.
"Grandfather, look at Dad. He's just looking for revenge. A banished immortal like my cousin wouldn't beat people up like Dad does."
Mu Bo immediately complained to Master Mu.
"You must also be prepared. A strict teacher produces excellent students."
Although Mr. Mu usually dotes on the two of them, if his sons beat them, he will definitely protect them, but if his grandsons beat them, he will choose to turn a blind eye.
Qin Zhizhi smiled at the resigned expressions of Mu Lei and Mu Bo.
I thought to myself that I praised your cousin so much today, don’t regret it if he gets abused in the future.
Qin Zhizhi quietly supported her still sore waist and rolled her eyes silently.
What kind of banished immortal is that? What you see with your eyes is the least trustworthy. Scholars are the best at deceiving people, especially those who seem weak and can be bullied.
