The little ancestor of the family

Chapter 113: Master Xie

The sky gradually began to glow.

Ye Xinran woke up from a beautiful dream and stretched contentedly.

"sleep well?"

She opened her eyes and greeted the man beside her in a good mood.

The man next to him was not in such a good mood.

Not only did they sleep without a quilt last night, but Ye Xinran also kept pushing herself into his arms, making it difficult for him to get up or down, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

"pretty good."

He said this against his will with dark circles under his eyes.

"Do you remember what happened yesterday?"

Xiao Huaian was a little surprised.

He had been very restrained yesterday because Ye Xinran was drunk. He didn't want to take advantage of her, and he didn't want Ye Xinran to regret it after waking up.

But it seems like she knows everything?

She knows about drunken conversations!

She also knows that she has to have someone to sleep with her!

"Remember! Didn't I tell you my secret?"

Ye Xinran played with Xiao Huaian's hair and put the ends of her hair into his ears, which made him turn his head away because of the itch.

"Just remember."

Xiao Huaian faced the wall and sighed.

I secretly regretted acting too gentlemanly last night.

"Let's go to the mountain today. The previous piece of land is full of crops. I think we need to find a suitable place."

Ye Xinran suddenly changed the subject.

Xiao Huaian lamented that Ye Xinran's thoughts jumped so quickly, but he didn't know that Ye Xinran deliberately used this sentence to get rid of the awkward atmosphere between them.

"it is good!"

Xiao Huaian readily agreed.

They both got up, washed, and went to the backyard, only to see the rice porridge bubbling in the pot.

I saw two people coming out.

Changan walked over quickly and hugged Ye Xinran's thighs.

"Aunt, I slept with my brothers yesterday. Was I too obedient?"

Ye Xinran touched his head: "He is indeed very well behaved."

Changping and Changan turned their heads away, unable to bear the sight.

"Changan is the best at acting like a spoiled child!"

"Why did you get up so early today?"

Ye Xinran asked the other two children.

Although they are sensible, they usually don't get up at this time.

"Because the teacher from the school is coming today!"

Changsheng was a little nervous.

"Sir, are you coming today?"

Ye Xinran was a little surprised, "I haven't heard Uncle Lizheng say that."

"Grandpa Lizheng came over to tell me last night. At that time, you and Second Uncle had gone back to your room to rest."

Ye Xinran nodded somewhat awkwardly.

It turned out to be the case.

It's all her fault that she accidentally drank too much last night.

She originally only wanted to drink half of it, but Xiao Huaian didn't even touch her, and she drank it all by herself.

"After dinner, you can all change into new clothes and I will take you to school together."

"it is good!"

The three children nodded.

After dinner, they changed into the blue shirts that Ye Xinran bought for them.

The three of them stood in a straight line, looking like little schoolchildren.

In addition to new clothes, Ye Xinran also prepared a book box for each of them, which contained newly purchased pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

I bought these things a long time ago and now they are finally useful.

When Ye Xinran and Xiao Huaian brought the children to the academy, a group of people had already gathered at the entrance.

Everyone stood at the gate of the academy, waiting for the teacher to arrive.

After a while, a simple little carriage slowly came from the path outside the village.

It took him a long time to run in front of everyone.

As soon as the carriage stopped, a gentleman in a blue shirt with a white background got out.

The gentleman was about thirty years old, very tall, with a straight body and a serious face, looking like a learned scholar.

The gentleman did not expect that there would be so many people watching. After getting off the car, he staggered for a moment before he stood firm.

He carried a very small bag with him. He first reached into his pocket and took out five cents, handed it to the coachman, and then looked at the crowd.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. I'm not worthy of this."

"Thank you, Master. You are too polite. It is an honor for you to come here to teach. We are willing to wait for you for a day and a night."

The head of the village quickly saluted.

"Don't feel wronged. Teaching and educating people is the same no matter where you are."

Thank you Master.

He looked at the head of the village and said, "Then let's go to the school and take a look now."

"Yes, let's go to the school first."

This is the first time a teacher has come to the village.

The villagers' faces were full of admiration.

Seeing Master Xie walking forward, everyone made way for him to pass.

Master Xie saw the environment of the ancestral hall and nodded: "Although the environment is a bit simple, it is sufficient."

He turned to look at the village head and asked: "How many schoolchildren are there in the village?"

The village head immediately said, “There are a total of sixty-three students in the village.

The oldest is sixteen, and the youngest is only four."

"Have they ever learned to read before?"

The head of the village was ashamed: "Only three or four children can read, and the rest have never been to school."

The head of the village was afraid that Master Xie would dislike these students, but Master Xie sighed:

“It turns out they are all like unpolished jade.”

“As long as the master doesn’t mind.

Next to the academy is the yard we prepared for you to rest. You can put your things there first. If there is anything you haven't moved in, I will ask Niu Er to drive the ox cart to help you move it."

Mr. Xie refused, saying, "This is all I have, so you don't need to take the rest."

The village head scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Then Master, put your things down and take a rest."

"No need to rest. I have already rested in the car. I will let the children come in soon and I will see them first."

When the head of the village heard this, he became even happier and immediately called all the children into the school.

The tables and chairs in the school were all pieced together by the village head.

Some are old ones, some are custom-made, and some are made in a hurry by carpenters in the village, so some are tall and some are short.

The teacher first asked them to find their appropriate positions according to their size, and then began to ask questions.

The villagers all stayed outside the ancestral hall to listen to the Master's speech.

Mr. Xie did not chase anyone away, but instead asked everyone to come in and listen.

“I heard from Dean Wei that the children here are eager to learn, but they have no one to teach them.

I am just a scholar, I am afraid I cannot take on the responsibility, I can only teach the children simple things. If there are talented people, I will recommend them to Dean Wei and let them study in the academy."

"Scholar, this is the first time I've seen a real scholar."

"Who isn't? It seems that there has never been a scholar in our village."

"The head of the village is really amazing. He even managed to invite a scholar to teach the children."

"Don't you know? That's all thanks to Madam Ye! If it weren't for Madam Ye, there wouldn't be this opportunity!"

"I think I heard that. I didn't expect that Madam Ye is actually the lucky star of our village!"

"That is!"

"Shh, keep your voice down, don't disturb the teacher!"

The head of the village winked at them, and the crowd quieted down.
