The second time, before he even got close, when he was about seven feet away from Qin Mu, he was tripped by a pebble that appeared out of nowhere.
As a result, not only were his knees scraped and bruised, but he was also so exhausted that he couldn't bend his knees for several days.
He walks with his back straight.
The third time, it was his birthday, and his mother unusually bought him a few pieces of candy.
When he finished school at the private school, he thought of something he wanted to share with his friend, so he decided to invite the other person to have a piece as well.
As soon as the candy was handed over, before the other person could even catch it, he was chased and bitten by a dog that appeared out of nowhere.
Although Qin Mu chased the dog away in the end, he lost a pair of shoes and one of his books.
He knew that things shouldn't happen more than three times, and from then on, he never dared to have any contact with Qin Mu again.
Whenever I see him, I walk around him from a distance.
However, the other party was a friend he genuinely wanted to make, so when Qin Mu went to the frontier at the age of thirteen, he knew about it and even watched him go from afar.
When he returned last year, he knew that he had only seen it from afar.
They really haven't been in touch for many years, so why are they coming to my door today?
Shen Zhaochen thought this way, but now that Qin Mu had arrived, he couldn't very well not open the door.
Therefore, what Chi Qiao saw was that Shen Zhaochen quickly opened the door and ran back to the eaves as if fleeing.
Qin Mu let Chi Qiao walk in front, and he followed behind her.
As they approached the main room, Shen Zhaochen moved to the side with a mixture of joy, curiosity, and fear, trying to get as far away from Qin Mu as possible!
Qin Mu was dressed warmly and wasn't cold. Seeing this, he stood under the eaves and looked at the other person.
Shen Zhaochen was somewhat pleased with Qin Mu's arrival, but more than that, he was afraid.
Therefore, seeing that Qin Mu remained silent, and the woman next to him also remained silent, she asked, "Amu, what brings you here today?"
Originally waiting for Qin Mu to speak, Chi Qiao, remembering that she had come on behalf of the people of Chijia'ao to invite the Master, spoke directly:
"Scholar Shen, I am Zhou, the wife of Chi Dahu from Chijia'ao!"
I'm coming down the mountain now to find a tutor for the young men of the village.
"I specifically asked the young man from the Qin family for help today. He said you are an upright and honest person, and also extremely learned."
With Chi Qiao's opening remarks, Qin Mu could easily continue the conversation, so he said:
“Ah Zhao, the condition offered by the teachers in Chijia'ao is that your whole family can go there.”
They provide food, drinks, and lodging there, and pay 300 coins a month.
This amount of money might be a little small for you.
But with such extreme weather, saving the whole family's lives is the best course of action.
In Chijia'ao, every household now has a heated brick bed (kang), burns charcoal, and grows vegetables.
Therefore, the accommodations they provided were perfectly warm.
Before Shen Zhaochen could think further, Old Man Shen, who had overheard the conversation inside, fearing his son might do something foolish again, quickly replied:
"Yes, we agree!"
The clever Shen Yejun, disregarding the cold, wrapped herself in the blanket and ran to the door.
Through the slightly ajar door, she glanced curiously at Qin Mu, then looked at Chi Qiao.
“Auntie, we agree to let my older brother become a teacher for the people in your village.”
I just think it would be best to have a time limit.
We'll set a one-year timeframe!
For the entire year, your food, drink, and lodging will be provided, with a monthly maintenance fee of 300 RMB.
If my elder brother wants to leave after a year, you must not stop him.
After all, he was still young, and he was originally the top student in the imperial examinations.
If my father hadn't had that accident, my eldest brother would have passed the imperial examination and become a scholar.
