Chapter 326 Teaching Advanced
A few days later.
Zong Zhao took Wen Xiu out once, and the young boys in the key class stretched their heads, curious about what had happened.
Only Zong Jincheng, who knew the truth, pretended to be calm and said, "Who cares? If I keep skipping classes like this, He Zheng will surpass me."
He Zheng turned around in shock: "Brother, I'm not that strong!"
Although he studies very hard, Brother Wenxiu also works very hard. It is not something he can catch up with by just studying for one or two more days. This kind of flattery is terrible and can easily lead to arrogance.
Wei and Shen patted his shoulders, one on each side, and said, "Brother, since you don't have the confidence, leave it to us."
He Zheng: “…”
Brothers...
My aunt said that you are being blindly confident.
After Zong Zhao came back in the evening, Bu Yan waited outside the courtyard on purpose. This was a brilliant idea he came up with after failing to bet countless times.
Zong Zhao strode back to the courtyard.
Bu Yan followed him closely and said earnestly, "It would be somewhat inconvenient for the general to go out alone to handle a case, right? Bu Yan is familiar with the practical affairs of the capital and can help you clear the obstacles."
"No need." Zong Zhao refused bluntly.
He was used to being alone, and felt uncomfortable with someone who didn't talk around him.
Buyan swallowed his saliva and continued, "General, how about I practice martial arts with you? You have been busy every day since you returned to Beijing, and you probably don't have time to go to the martial arts training ground. Buyan can accompany you in the small courtyard to relax your muscles and bones."
No matter what, he must get this done today.
Return to the general!
I must never be a thug for those little brats again!
Zong Zhao stopped and looked at him sideways: "Just take care of Jin Cheng, don't worry about anything else."
No words: "!!!"
What a bolt from the blue! General, could you please be more tactful when speaking? I am not mentally prepared at all!
Bu Yan's heart finally died. His forced smile collapsed in an instant and he said sadly, "Yes..."
After Bu Yan left, Xu Wan and Cui Zhi finally couldn't hold back their laughter, but there was something a little sinister in their smiles.
Zong Zhao looked at them in confusion and quickly responded, "Did you know this a long time ago?"
Cuizhi tactfully asked people to prepare dinner.
Xu Wan smiled and replied, "I know. Bu Yan is usually quiet and has no good eyesight, but since you came back, he has been showing his courtesy here every now and then. It's obvious that he wants to come back to see you. But we all think that you won't want him to come back, and it's not easy to tell him the result without you, so we can only watch him hit a wall himself."
Zong Zhao was washing his hands beside the basin and asked casually, "He doesn't like being around Jin Cheng?"
Xu Wan chuckled: "Who would be willing to stay by Jin Cheng's side and help him climb over the wall to fight? This kid is causing trouble everywhere, and Bu Yan has to clean up all the messes. Bu Yan is ostensibly protecting him, but in fact he is his thug."
Zong Zhao was confused: "Is there any difference? Aren't they both physical?"
Xu Wan: “…”
She was choked, thought for a moment and replied: "Thug is not a compliment."
"I think it's good," Zong Zhao took the towel she handed him and said as he wiped his hands, "When I was away, Bu Yan was able to help you guys vent your anger, you deserve it."
Xu Wan blinked and suggested, "This is a good idea. I will give Buyan a monthly salary tomorrow as compensation for his mental damage."
Zong Zhao laughed and replied, "I'll listen to you."
After getting a salary increase, Bu Yan was visibly happier. He was full of energy and seemed to be several years younger. This shows how powerful the power of salary increase is.
Houfu key class.
Xu Wan was at the debate on "Should we dredge or block the Yellow River?", watching the young men angrily attacking the little devil.
After more than a year of debate training, we are no longer confused by Zong Jincheng's crooked ideas as we were at the beginning. Instead, we are growing and improving together, and our ability to quote classics, debate momentum, and debate confidence have all doubled.
Xu Wan drank tea while watching them quarrel, and occasionally glanced at the shorthand of the servants beside her.
By the time the young boys finished the sixth round of quarreling, there was still no winner, but Shen Yibai and Zong Jincheng were already sitting on the table arguing with each other with spit flying, and several teachers nearby were busy wiping their faces.
"Mom, what do you think, is it better to dredge or block? I'm definitely the winner, right?"
"Nonsense, we obviously won. Auntie, please judge for yourself. Is Jincheng trying to avoid the important point?"
Zong Jincheng and Shen Yibai couldn't come to a conclusion in their argument, and they couldn't just start a fight, so they could only ask questions at the same time, putting the pressure on Xu Wan.
Xu Wan took a sip of tea and commented calmly, "They are all quite good. To control the water flow of the Yellow River, we need to combine dredging and blocking. However, this debate is relatively neutral, and it does not necessarily require you to win or lose."
"Ah?" The teenagers were confused.
What is happening?
In the past, every debate competition had a winner. Although the Jincheng team won most of the time, because the teams changed frequently, the other children's potential was also stimulated.
Xu Wan smiled and said, "There have been many ways to control the Yellow River since ancient times. The reason why we have you split into groups to study it through debate is to help you understand the advantages and disadvantages of dredging or blocking. So now, the debate is over - let's turn it into a discussion meeting, and everyone should start to think about how to control the water comprehensively."
The book boys delivered the shorthand in due course.
"!!!" Several young boys were shocked.
As if enlightened, they immediately became excited and started to summarize together: "The first way to control the water of the Yellow River is..."
Five little heads squeezed together and entered into discussion mode with a common hatred of the enemy. The switch was so natural.
The teachers were also amazed. When it comes to the speed of accepting new things, the children are faster. The young boys did not find it strange at all and just did as Xu Wan asked them to do.
After Xu Wan finished talking to the children, she said to the five private teachers, "When you have free time, you can also think about these debates that are helpful for writing articles. Think of them in a more neutral way, not as extreme as before. This will make it easier to summarize and absorb, and your writing will be more efficient."
In the past, she was the one who thought about the debate topics, but her own strength was limited. It would be better to mobilize the teachers to work together to study how to write good articles.
The five private instructors all said humbly, "Madam, you have wonderful ideas. We are really hard to catch up with you."
Xu Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Alright, stop bragging. Anyone whose debate topic is accepted will be rewarded with ten taels of silver."
Teachers: “!!!!”
I won't sleep tonight. I must think about him eight hundred times!
