This was the first time that Xiao Cunyu found Dong Jinming so pleasing to the eye.
Her brothers talk too much nonsense, especially when two of them are put together, it's like fire and water colliding with each other, making a mess of smoke!
The eldest brother asked her what she had done recently, and complained that she was lazy and didn't know how to study on her own without the teacher's guidance. The third brother rushed to say that she was sensible and knew to go to visit Mr. Lin... After a few words, the third brother started to mutter about Mr. Lin's articles, from poetry and songs to the philosophy of life, leaving her no chance to get a word in!
The eldest brother was happy to see it happen and would occasionally add a few words, which made her dizzy.
Xiao Guantang had never met Dong Jinming, but he trusted Xiao Cunyu, so he felt that the child seemed to have some "curiosity for knowledge" and said with a smile, "Since he is a relative, if you have any questions, just tell me, and I will do my best to answer them for you."
Xiao Cunyu smiled slightly.
This is exactly the result we want.
Dong Jinming also came prepared. Although he didn't like reading, in order to get closer to him, he handed the book over and pointed at it casually.
Before Xiao Guantang had time to read, Xiao Cunyu hurriedly said, "Third brother, you teach cousin Jin Ming first. I'm going to go back and get the books I've treasured for a long time. I'll be back soon!"
After saying that, Xiao Cunyu ran away.
Xiao Guantang, I believe it.
He smiled slightly and nodded, then turned to look at Xiao Jingyun: "Look, how could Seventh Brother be as bad as you say?"
"..." Xiao Jingyun rolled his eyes at him, then chuckled, "Alright, then I'll wait for Seventh Brother to come over. I just don't know if I can still wait for him today."
Xiao Guantang just felt that his eldest brother really didn't know how to teach children, and he never thought about the good things about his seventh brother. If this continued, his seventh brother would naturally become bored with studying!
Xiao Guantang was very patient and began to teach Dong Jinming seriously.
However, when Dong Jinming took the book and looked at it, he found that...
It’s so simple!
And this book is actually for enlightenment! ?
He's so old, and he still doesn't understand this enlightenment book? He was a little surprised, but then he thought that maybe it was because his relative's family didn't value education that Dong Jinming started learning late, so it was understandable...
He felt a little sympathy and taught him carefully.
Dong Jinming was not good at studying.
Even if he wanted to pretend, he couldn't do it.
After listening to it once, Xiao Guantang asked, "Do you understand what I said? Can you repeat it again for me?"
“…” Dong Jinming couldn’t utter a word.
“…” Xiao Guantang was a little dumbfounded.
He started learning at the age of three and was gifted. He later entered a college to study. Surrounded by people with extraordinary talents, his friends were all extraordinary. Now, even those who asked him for advice were at least scholars, and their talents were not bad...
But now, it's like teaching a stone?
Time passed little by little, and Xiao Guantang waited patiently, but after waiting for a long time, Xiao Cunyu did not come back.
Xiao Jingyun laughed wickedly, gloating: "My seventh brother must have gone out to play a long time ago."
"Impossible! How could Seventh Brother lie to me?" Xiao Guantang didn't believe it and quickly said to the servants, "Go and see what's wrong with the Seventh Young Master. Is he feeling unwell? Or is he too embarrassed to come because he doesn't understand much? Go and urge him."
The servants couldn't help but look at the third young master with sympathy.
Everyone knows that the Seventh Young Master is not home all day long!
"Listen to the Third Young Master and go take a look." Xiao Jingyun was proud for once. "Third brother, you deserve a headache too."
Xiao Guantang was a little confused. He sat upright, still looking outside intently.
