Yu Tingwan was cracking the pumpkin seeds that Hui Niang had just fried, and talking to Liu Yan.
"How is Ah Yu preparing for the provincial examination?"
Liu Yan: "I didn't ask. He and Master Zhao are in Huaqing Academy, and they haven't been home for half a month."
Master Zhao was preparing for the Spring Examination, and Zhao Yu was preparing for the provincial examination.
"I was thinking about it the other day, and after discussing it with my mother-in-law, I asked Aunt Zhao to run over to deliver food. When we came back, Aunt Zhao smiled and whispered to us that Master Zhao was somewhat confident."
Considering Master Zhao's usual rigor, he must be very confident to say so.
In addition to his solid foundation and willingness to work hard, this is also because Wei Zhao and Gu Fuju often give advice.
Liu Yan is very open-minded.
"My mother-in-law and I didn't dare to ask. Seeing that he has lost a lot of weight, how can we not be afraid that he will be too burdened."
In the past, who would dare to believe that Zhao Yu would pass the examination and become a scholar and go to the capital to study.
"If I don't pass the exam this time, I'll try next time."
Liu Yan: "I've taken my business to Beijing. He just needs to study. I can support him."
Yu Tingwan: ...
Once upon a time, she also had the ambition to support a man.
"Mother!"
Wei Zhizhi's voice came from outside. She turned her head and saw the little girl running in and stuffing the candied haws in her hand into her hand.
Then she called Aunt Liu.
She turned around and went to the kitchen with her sharp nose.
Liu Yan was speechless.
Yu Tingwan said faintly: "What's the surprise? My biological child."
When Wei Zhizhi came out, she was holding a bowl bigger than her face.
Wei Shouzhong followed behind her worriedly: "Be careful not to drop it. Grandpa will get it for you."
"No need."
Seeing Wei Zhizhi sitting next to Yu Tingwan, Wei Shouzhong went back to the kitchen.
When he left, he still said cheerfully: "Sister Zhi, wait a little longer, your grandmother will make the dried meat soon."
"We made a lot this time, and let your mother take it all away for you. You can share it with the classmates you just met in the Imperial College."
Wei Zhizhi, who was protecting her food, froze in her smile.
"Why does Zhizhi want to share it with them?"
"To make friends."
Wei Shouzhong turned around and talked to her again: "With more friends, you can integrate into the school as quickly as possible."
Wei Zhizhi didn't understand.
"Why do I integrate with them?"
"Instead of them compromising with me?"
Liu Yan: ???
I really learned something new.
She raised her hand and clapped.
"You are more promising than your mother."
Old Master Sun, who was dozing off on the side, opened his eyes without knowing when.
"Sister Zhi, come here and let Master take a look."
Wei Zhizhi walked over.
"Master."
Old Master Sun said earnestly: "When you go to the Imperial College, you must respect your teachers and listen to their teachings respectfully, and don't neglect them."
After speaking, he glanced at Yu Tingwan.
Yu Tingwan: ...
Who should I choose?
Wei Zhizhi nodded.
"Hmm!"
Master Sun was about to laugh.
Wei Zhizhi: "Master, if you listen to me, I will respect you."
You still have conditions?
How can you have conditions?
Master Sun almost couldn't catch his breath.
He continued to speak earnestly.
"You have to study hard. Don't be late or leave early. Sit properly and stand properly. Don't be lazy."
Wei Zhizhi: "Hmm!"
She agreed, but she couldn't guarantee whether she could do it.
"Friendship between classmates is precious from beginning to end. You should be humble and get along well with them."
Wei Zhizhi: "Hmm!"
Seeing that she agreed faster and faster, Master Sun knew that what he said went in one ear and out the other.
He sighed helplessly.
He looked at Wei Zhizhi in front of him and saw the shadow of Yu Tingwan in her.
Time flies so fast. At a glance, the rebellious child has grown up so much.
He looked at the little Wei Zhizhi, and couldn't help but think of the scene in his long-term memory.
At that time... his first wife was still there.
But he was bedridden.
He was originally teaching in the academy, but he had to take care of his wife, and it was inconvenient to run back and forth. So he resigned from his position as a teacher and decided to take in disciples at home.
Yu Jingcheng came to him specially when he heard the news.
——"Teacher, I have a daughter at home, and I want to send her here for training."
Ha.
Ze County is so small, and Master Sun has also heard about how undisciplined Yu's daughter Yaoyao was.
He didn't dare to take this hot potato. He
was about to refuse, but Yu Jingcheng gave him a large sum of money and said that he would find the best doctor for his wife.
People are always vulgar.
He also nodded for the vulgar.
He took the money.
It was really expensive for his wife to see a doctor and take medicine, and he was indeed short of money.
He was a juren, and many people came here because of his reputation.
But the number of places was limited. He
still had to show his face.
That day, the children who were intended to be sent for enlightenment were led to stand in a yard, hoping to be selected by Master Sun.
Old Master Sun also saw Yu Jiayaoyao.
She was well-born, and stood out among the children. She was also the only girl.
Yu Jiayaoyao was looking around, not understanding why so many people were rushing to embark on the hardship of studying. Noticing his gaze, she made a face at him arrogantly.
Old Master Sun felt that money was not easy to get.
He selected the children, and the last spot was reserved for Yu Jiayaoyao.
The little girl's eyes suddenly widened, as if she couldn't believe it.
Soon she straightened her back.
She was very proud.
Yaoyao couldn't hide the pride in her eyes, and gave him a thumbs up.
——"A discerning eye for pearls."
When she became his disciple, she kowtowed to show her appreciation.
——"Master, you have a good eye."
He actually used the word "you"?
Old Master Sun was surprised, and looked her up and down carefully.
The child did not dodge, and let her look openly.
He felt that this child was not hopeless.
Look at her eyes, so clear.
Naughtiness is fake, but spirituality is real, and there is still jade to be polished.
Just like Zhijie at this moment.
But Wei Shouzhong was very worried: "I don't know if those children are easy to get along with. What if you are bullied?"
Yu Tingwan: "..."
She was afraid that Wei Zhizhi would climb over those people.
Who in Shangjing dares to bully this ancestor!
Wei Zhizhi felt that Wei Shouzhong was right, and she nodded heavily.
"That's right."
"I am as delicate as my father."
Thinking of something, she turned to tell Yu Tingwan.
"By the way, the candied haws were asked by my grandfather to be brought to my mother."
Yu Tingwan knew it without her saying it. She spit out a few seeds.
"It's a bit sour."
"My grandfather said that the uncle who used to sell candied haws on the streets was sick, and it was his son who made it."
No wonder.
It tasted different from the last time.
Wei Zhizhi was very worried and began to inquire.
"Mother, who are the people who studied with me in the Imperial College?"
Yu Tingwan: "Don't ask."
"Why?"
Yu Tingwan smiled, her tone light: "Three were beaten by you, five were warned by you, and six hid when they saw you."
Fu Meng was very proud and raised his head high.
When he was beaten and warned, it! It was there!
Yu Tingwan couldn't bear it and reached out to push the tiger's head down.
Wei Zhizhi was very surprised that they didn't catch them all. He counted on his fingers: "Daddy said there were fifteen people, so there is one more."
Yu Tingwan had a headache: "My goodness."
"Huh?"
"Count yourself in."
