It happened at this time.
A large group of students in the fields stopped pulling up seedlings, surrounded Cui Xian, and rushed over here.
Wherever they passed, everyone made way for them.
They are so young and immature.
But he was not afraid of the power of the Zhao family at all, and glared at Zhao Zhi and the servants of the Zhao family fiercely.
The middle position among the students.
Pei Jian, Li Heyu, Zhuang Jin and Gao Qi stood on both sides of Cui Xian to protect him.
Zhao Zhi looked at them.
Ye Huaifeng looked at them.
The Cui family and the people of Hexi Village looked at them.
Further away.
The brothers Cui Zhongyuan and Cui Boshan, the students of the county school, Wu Qinglan, and countless common people also looked at them.
At this moment, many people vaguely understood——
It seems that today, on the surface, these guys are "forcing things to happen", but in fact they have other intentions!
But, that was the extremely powerful Zhao Zhi.
Can it be done with just this group of guys?
Under everyone's gaze.
Cui Xian walked out from among the students. He ignored everyone and bent down to help the old woman who had been pushed to the ground. He then asked softly, "Grandma, are you okay?"
The old woman shook her head but couldn't help crying. Her eyes were filled with turbid tears and sorrow and pain.
Cui Xian supported the old woman, raised his head and looked at Ye Huaifeng.
Ye Huaifeng looked at him.
At this moment, County Magistrate Ye, who had thought he would feel embarrassed, found that he was not.
On the contrary, it is somewhat urgent.
He looked at Cui Xian and thought to himself.
Is this the east wind you mentioned?
If so, then light a fire, take advantage of the east wind, and let the fire burn!
And then, it was just as Ye Huaifeng expected.
The next moment.
Cui Xian lit the fire himself.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he stood up, swept his eyes across the faces of the people around him, and said loudly: "Boy Cui Xian, you have put on a farce today and made everyone laugh at you."
"I know that nowadays everyone laughs at me for being stupid because of studying too much, and for trying to force the growth of seedlings and harvest grain."
"But you all saw that Zhao Zhi used his power to force me, and I just couldn't do anything!"
"In the chapter "Gongsun Chou" of "Mencius", there is a saying: There was a man in Song who was worried that his seedlings were not growing well and pulled them up. He returned home in a daze and said to his friend: "I am sick today! I helped the seedlings grow!"
"The elders and villagers present here may not understand what I mean, but it is actually very simple. I am doing such a foolish thing today by forcing things to grow faster."
"Thanks to the Master's teaching, I am able to study at ease in the school. The Master taught me this article carefully and imparted its meaning."
"It was the boy who acted on his own initiative and did something that forced the issue forward. He caused countless jokes and brought shame to my master."
In this era, reputation is the most important thing.
It is too absurd to force something to grow too fast. As a student, Cui Xian cannot harm Master Wu.
So he wanted to make this matter clear in public.
Not only would he not be able to harm Master Wu, he would also use today's events to bring fame to Master Wu!
really.
Hearing Cui Xian's words.
Wu Qinglan, who was originally angry, was stunned, and then he stood up without hesitation.
Amidst countless doubts and ridicules, he stood up!
Wu Qinglan walked towards Cui Xian, looked at his most satisfied student, and said proudly: "Everyone, I am Wu Qinglan, the teacher of this ridiculous student who is trying to force his way forward."
"But, in my eyes, Cui Xian is smart, agile, and full of talent. He has his own style of writing at a young age. He is also my pride."
Speaking of this.
Wu Qinglan looked at Cui Xian and said with a smile: "So what I mean is, Cui Xian, don't be afraid. I will take care of everything. Please tell me the whole story in detail."
Cui Xian looked at Wu Qinglan and asked, "Master, the matter of forcing seedlings to grow has been treated as a joke by countless people."
"Students read the books of sages, but when they encounter a catastrophic disaster, they are powerless to protect themselves. They even have the delusion that they really want to imitate the fool who is treated as a joke, and force the growth of seedlings to help them harvest food."
"I dare to ask, what is the use of reading this book of sages? If forcing the growth of seedlings is no longer a joke, what should we do if it happens to you and me?"
At that moment, many people were silent.
The countless people present may still be confused.
But Wu Qinglan, Ye Huaifeng, Cui Zhongyuan, Cui Boshan, and the group of students from the county school were all shocked.
I never expected that the seemingly absurd practice of forcing things to happen would be so cruel when interpreted with blood and tears.
Wu Qinglan was silent for a long time.
Then he looked at the countless people around him and suddenly understood what the students meant.
Wonderful, wonderful!
Cui Xian, my good student, really has a smart mind!
Master Wu raised his head and looked at Cui Xian, and the group of students from the Pei clan school behind Cui Xian, and said in a trembling voice: "Good children, I have asked you this question before, and you didn't know how to answer it at that time. But..."
Speaking of this.
Wu Qinglan choked up several times, holding back tears and continued, "But Cui Xian once answered this question. Does anyone still remember?"
This time.
Cui Xian stood up straight.
Pei Jian, Li Heyu, Gao Qi, Zhuang Jin, and countless other students from the Pei clan school present all raised their heads and stood up straight.
Just like giving a lecture in class.
Wu Qinglan said with red eyes: "Pei Jian, you speak."
Pei Jian dared to swear that he had never taken such a class in his life.
He understood the Master's question and even knew the answer.
