Chapter 230 The Little Devil Sets Class Rules
"Jinshi..." Xu Wan twisted these two words lightly and sighed, "What a pity for a person to give up his official career just like that."
Cuizhi asked tentatively, "Madam, do you want to keep this man? Do you want to find out who he offended?"
If the person Jiang Yan offended was powerful, then if their mansion accepted him without hesitation, they would probably get into trouble.
Xu Wan pondered and said, "Let's see if he can write it down first. I have a feeling that he will take the initiative to say it."
Cuizhi nodded and said it was possible.
Bailixi was sitting in the back, and waited for the three to finish writing before taking over and reading. He stroked his beard while reading and said, "They are all pretty good."
Xu Wan: “…”
Please don't be like this.
She said, "We only need one person for this expansion."
Baili Xi raised an eyebrow and said, "Then let's choose Jiang Yan. I have seen his experience. He just offended a few villains. It's not a big problem. In addition, Jiang Yan has the highest knowledge. In addition to tutoring Yibai, he can also help Cheng Zhidong with the study planning of several children. It will be of great help to you."
Although Baili Xi is older, she appreciates Xu Wan's teaching method very much and knows the whole process very well.
Xu Wan nodded and smiled, "Thank you for your advice, sir. I will ask someone to sign the contract with him right away."
Baili Xi asked, "Hey... the other two men are good, so you just don't want them anymore?"
Xu Wan was just about to say just hire one.
Unexpectedly, a maid came in and reported, "Madam, Mrs. Wei, the Right Chief of the Censorate, has brought Young Master Wei Xinglu to see you."
Xu Wan: “…”
Cuizhi, please wait a moment, don't be impatient.
Baili Xi couldn't help laughing out loud again.
It seems that these three people have a chance to stay. The case of the dance house is solved, Jin Cheng becomes famous, and Xu Wan, the teacher behind him, is vying for favor from the ladies of various families.
Xu Wan was so annoyed by Baili's laughter that she kept tilting her head. She walked to the front hall with people in a funny and angry mood. When Mrs. Wei saw her coming, she stood up quickly and greeted her warmly: "Sister, when I saw you, I felt like I had known you for a long time!"
Xu Wan put on a professional smile but cried madly inside.
This is the day I get a sister...
After some pleasantries, Mrs. Wei got to the point and said that she wanted to reunite the four little dandies and become the four great talents of the capital, thus becoming the pillars of the country.
Xu Wan: Thank you. I really appreciate your trust in me.
Mrs. Wei was still talking to her, "Sister, look at how good your skin is. It's fun to be around children. We fight among ourselves every day and get older."
Xu Wan: “…”
I'm only nineteen and you're over thirty. How can my skin not be better than yours?
But the truth is always hard to tell, she added weakly: "Taking care of children is also very taxing..."
"Yes!" Madam Wei quickly echoed her words and asked someone to bring over the gift. "This is the bird's nest sent by the South. It is good for beauty and skin. Sister should eat more of it. It will make your skin smooth and tender!"
Xu Wan knew that such tribute items could not be bought.
Crazy.
but……
Mrs. Wei pulled Wei Xinglu over and kicked him to tell him to call for help: "Hello, Auntie. I want to go to study with Jincheng and the others. Can you take me in?"
Xu Wan picked it up and seemed a little surprised: "Did you come here to study voluntarily?"
She remembered that Wei Xinglu once came to the mansion and brought people to spray Jin Cheng with talisman water, suspecting that Jin Cheng was possessed by the ghost of endorsement. It's been less than a year, and this kid has fallen in love with studying?
Wei Xinglu said with a stiff upper lip: "Yes, yes, I volunteered and really wanted to come..."
Help! He wanted to hear a ghost. There were so many books in that key class of the Marquis' Mansion. He would suffocate if he stayed there for a while longer.
But his mother stopped giving him all his money and, following Xu Wan's example, dismissed a lot of his servants. Only if he agreed to study hard could he get back everything that belonged to him.
Wei Xinglu knew what was right and wrong, so he pretended to give in and got the money back first. After all, he didn't have to study when he was here, so he could discuss with Shen Yibai how to skip school.
Xu Wan saw that his eyes were wandering and knew at first glance that it was not the case. However, the child seemed to be sincere on the surface, and Mrs. Wei was instigating her. She didn't know what was going on, but in the end, she and Wei Xinglu were the only ones left in the front hall.
"..." Xu Wan pinched her brows and said, "Your mother is really good at talking."
Wei Xinglu said with a smile: "Not only that, her beatings are also very painful."
Xu Wan: “…” It seems that you have suffered a lot from it.
"Auntie, I'm going to go look for Jincheng then."
"Well, go ahead. I'm just choosing a teacher for Yi Bai, so I'll pick one for you as well."
"……OK."
Houfu key class.
Seeing Wei Xinglu coming with his luggage, the other children were stunned.
“Walking?!”
"Wei Xinglu, why are you here?"
"You, you, you, are you going to class too?"
"Great! The four of us are finally reunited!"
Wei Xinglu pulled the corner of his mouth speechlessly and complained to the little devil: "Yeah, brother, you are so famous in the capital, and we are being compared and scolded at home, but now we are being directly attacked and tortured with you."
As he spoke, he asked people to put their things down, took out his own pen, ink, paper and inkstone, with a look of despair on his face.
The little devil laughed loudly and walked over, sat down on his desk, put his arm around his shoulder and said, "We call this a reunion of the four great talents. There's no torture involved. You will soon be able to feel the joy of studying. Right, He Zheng?"
He Zheng nodded frantically, his eyes sparkling: "Walking, it's true, reading is so happy!"
Wei Xinglu's face was numb, and he said speechlessly: "It's not like I haven't read it. You two lunatics, why don't you let Shen Yibai speak?"
As soon as Shen Yibai heard this, he knew that he had a comrade-in-arms. He quickly said, "Yes, I agree with Xinglu. Studying is the most torturous thing. It hurts both physically and mentally!"
Wei Xinglu nodded heavily and decisively joined the team of Shen's cronies.
"Tsk." The little devil stood up from his desk, "Then you're not going to class yet."
He looked sharply at the Wei family guards standing outside, protecting him openly and monitoring him secretly, so he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.
Wei Xinglu was not worried either. He winked at Shen Yibai and said, "There's a long way to go, right, brother?"
Shen Yibai quickly understood what he meant and smiled proudly: "I understand, brother, I understand you!"
The little devil saw that they were not holding back, and immediately changed his face and said, "Since the number of people in our key class is increasing, I think some rules should be made clear in advance. If anyone breaks the rules, even if they are my brothers, I will still beat them."
"What rules?" the children asked in unison.
The little demon Wang Zongwenxiu said: "Brother, I will talk and you write."
