Chapter 178 When did I say I wanted to be a teacher?
The next day was Monday. After more than half a month of getting used to each other, Gu Jiayue and the twenty-nine people in the Imperial Examination Class 2 had become very compatible.
Now, no one in the class disrespects her, and several people even worship her as a legend.
The Imperial Examination Class 2 was on track, and the Enlightenment School was also making good progress. She approached Jiang Luli and Master Du to discuss whether they should hold an exam to test the teaching results.
Naturally, they didn't disagree.
They agreed to finish the test paper tonight, and Gu Jiayue was about to go to class.
Jiang Luli stopped her and said, "A friend of mine came to see me yesterday. He fell in love with the scenery of Taohua Village and wants to stay here to teach. Would you like to give him another teaching test, Headmaster Gu?"
Another teacher is here? That's good news.
How could Gu Jiayue disagree? She immediately decided to meet him!
Shi Jingyuan was brought in front of Gu Jiayue.
Gu Jiayue looked at the young man in front of her and asked with a smile, "I heard from Principal Jiang that Master Shi wants to come to the academy to be a teacher?"
Shi Jingyuan was stunned and stared at Jiang Luli blankly.
Being a teacher? Him? He never said that.
But when he met Jiang Luli's eyes, he seemed to understand something in an instant. "Yes, I really want to be a teacher."
Gu Jiayue looked at the man in front of her who was gritting his teeth, feeling a little puzzled.
Do you want to do this or not?
Jiang Luli hurried forward. "It's like this. Jing Yuan is my cousin. Like me, he loves landscapes. His calligraphy and painting are well-known in Kyoto. So he wants to teach students how to paint."
Painting? That would be great. It just so happens that there's still a gap in this area of the school. "Then it's up to you, Master Shi. How about starting classes tomorrow? Will you get the same salary as Principal Jiang?"
"Okay, no problem. I'm available anytime." Shi Jingyuan's handsome face was covered with a gentle smile, as if he was very satisfied with this arrangement.
What the hell was this? He had only come to see his cousin, who hadn't wanted to go home since leaving Beijing, on behalf of his aunt. Why was he staying here to teach? No one had told him when he came.
Besides, why does he like painting?
After sending Gu Jiayue away, Shi Jingyuan quickly grabbed Jiang Luli by the collar and said viciously, "I didn't say I wanted to be a teacher. I want to go back to Kyoto!"
His close female friends are all waiting for him at home.
Jiang Luli's expression remained unchanged as he gently brushed away Shi Jingyuan's hand that was pulling at his collar. "You can't go back. You have to stay here with me."
Humph, let him go back and complain?
"Besides, haven't you been researching that bridge construction and hit a bottleneck? I promise you'll get the answer if you stay here."
Shi Jingyuan looked at Jiang Luli with suspicion. When had this cousin become so kind? Was there some conspiracy?
No, what good was this remote place to be? Why did he stay here at all? Did the Emperor assign him a mission? Now he needed my cooperation but couldn't even ask for it?
Well, it seems that he is in a very dangerous situation now. He needs a helper from this playboy.
"Okay, then don't tell me I like painting. I do have other skills." Shi Jingyuan gave up struggling. They were all brothers, and if his good brother was in trouble, he would help him.
Jiang Luli, who was slightly taller, lowered his gaze after hearing what Shi Jingyuan said. "For example..."
Shi Jingyuan choked. "For example...for example..." He took a deep breath and said slowly, "Painting is good."
Jiang Luli didn't even bother to talk to him. "Okay, I'm going to class now. Take a look around the hall by yourself. You should get the class schedule tonight. Then think about what you should teach. Don't just do it casually."
"I know, I know. You're too nagging." Shi Jingyuan waved his hand and left the office.
Gu Jiayue, who had already left, thought about what happened yesterday and was still very uneasy. She then turned around and came back to find Jiang Luli.
Looking at Gu Jiayue who had returned, Jiang Luli asked slowly, "Anything else?"
Gu Jiayue hesitated, but if she didn't ask him for help, she didn't know who else to ask. "Captain Jiang, I want to borrow some people from you. They're the men in black who were flying around in the sky the other day."
She spoke carefully, so her voice was a little delicate.
Jiang Luli felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained away. He felt limp. "What are you borrowing this person for? What happened?"
Gu Jiayue had no choice but to tell him what happened the night before. "I was the only one who saw the footprints, and I didn't dare tell my family. I usually keep a low profile and thought I hadn't offended anyone. But it's better to be cautious, so I wanted to borrow one or two people from you to protect my family. We'll move into the new house in a couple of days."
Actually, Hu Zi could do this, but he still has to take care of the school. He already has a lot of tasks on his plate, so we can't just leave everything to Hu Zi. How unkind would that be?
So Gu Jiayue has written a letter to Kangzi, asking him to find two strong men with good skills for her in Juzhou.
Ahem, ahem, Jiang Luli, the instigator, was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer this question.
He couldn't just say don't worry, that footprint was left when he was using the force, right?
He is a prince, how could he be shameless?
"Really? Some scoundrel actually dared to check on you. Don't worry, I'll send two people to your house to protect you."
Looking at Jiang Luli, who was tall and slender and had a righteous look on his face, Gu Jiayue said happily, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for your generosity in lending me this person. Don't worry, I'll pay for the next few days' wages."
If you use someone else's people, you naturally have to pay them for their work. Gu Jiayue doesn't want to take advantage of them.
But Jiang Luli felt that he wanted to distance himself from him. Ha, a realistic woman.
Why did you fall in love with someone else so quickly after using all means to keep him?
Is he not good enough?
He clearly met every requirement she asked for.
He nodded calmly. "Don't bother. It just so happens that there are some things I don't quite understand about the movable type printing technique you gave me that day, and I need you to explain it to me."
How could she refuse such a simple request? Gu Jiayue quickly flattered him, "We're going to do the test together after lunch. How about I solve it for you after school this afternoon?"
Jiang Luli raised his eyelids, glanced at her, and curled the corners of his lips. "Okay."
After they separated, they both attended different classes.
The Imperial Examination Class 2 was now on the right track. They had all learned Professor Gu Jiayue's material well. All they needed to do next was practice, practice, practice. Practice had taught them that simply seeing a question would instantly prompt them with the answer. This would reduce the time they spent formulating their thoughts.
"You've performed well recently. But it's still not enough. So I'll assign you a task."
Everyone was eager to try and looked at Gu Jiayue with anticipation.
Gu Jiayue raised her eyes and smiled. "I've decided to hold a debate in five days! We'll draw lots to divide the two camps into two groups, pro and con. Each camp will express its own views. Finally, the judges will decide the winner."
"The winner can get 20 extra credits."
No one can refuse extra credits!
