Chapter 191 Mooncake (5)
Seeing the serious expression on the girl's face, an unreasonable sourness emerged spontaneously. Xun Zhou moved his lips and said, "Sister Mingtang..."
Does she understand what happened to the Wen family and what she lost? Maybe it's because I don't know why I can be so calm...
But looking at the girl lowering her head and sorting out the notebook at hand, Xunzhou couldn't help but said: "If nothing happened to the teacher, you are the young lady of the Wen family! You... don't need to walk around the stove, you can wear beautiful dresses and dresses. Good-looking jewellery, you can open your mouth when you have food, and reach out for clothes. When you grow up to this age, there are not many handsome people who want to marry Mingtang's sister, and you can line up from Wen's mansion all the way to Mingde Square..."
Not like now...
Hearing Xun Zhou speak more and more, his voice became more and more choked up, until finally he couldn't continue...
Wen Mingtang, who had finished organizing the notebook in his hand, looked up at Xun Zhou, who had red eyes, and said, "I like walking around the stove, Xun... Brother Xun doesn't have to do that!"
Xun Zhou, who was comforting and listening, felt even more sour. He resisted the sourness, but he didn't forget to ask Wen Mingtang: "Sister Mingtang called me my senior brother? But the teacher also taught Sister Mingtang to read?"
Otherwise, why would you call him senior brother?
Wen Mingtang nodded without thinking about it: "Taught me!"
Xun Zhou was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly asked Wen Mingtang: "What did you teach? If sister Mingtang doesn't dislike it, Brother Yu can continue to teach..."
Before he finished speaking, Wen Mingtang shook his head and said, "No need, the teaching is over." After that, he said, "I taught the Three Character Classic."
Xunzhou: "..."
That's what young children learned when they were enlightened! Facing the girl's serious expression, Xun Zhou twitched the corners of his mouth, but he still praised him and found a way to go: "I think the teacher has finished teaching the "Three Character Classics", and brother Yu will stop playing tricks!"
Facing the junior sister in front of him who had learned the "Three Character Classic", Xun Zhou regained his energy, coughed, and said: "Then I'll go later! Go to the study!"
There are a lot of books in the study, so I will pick a few more books for sister Mingtang. Maybe, besides the book, sister Mingtang will also be interested in other books?
Guiding the study needs to be induced slowly, too fast might offend sister Mingtang's resentment! Xun Zhou thought.
…
…
Although it is a festival, there are quite a few people in the study. There are students surrounded by books such as "University" and "The Doctrine of the Mean"; there are also scholars surrounded by poems such as "Chu Ci" and "Book of Songs". ; There are also craftsmen gathered in front of industry guide books such as "Travel of the Craftsman" and "Tao Clay"... However, these are not as many as the bookshelves with various scripts.
At a glance, there were crowds of people in front of the bookshelf, some servants and maidservants who were instructed by the master to grab the latest book, and more people came to grab the book by themselves. At a glance: scholars, clerks, bookkeepers, women, etc., with different identities and wealth, but they all come to grab the latest book.
Holding a stack of the latest volumes, the study buddy who came out of the book showed his face, and before he could yell, everyone rushed forward! The "over-enthusiastic" situation shocked Xun Zhou, who rarely read such "killing time" talk books.
This... this is too...
In the blink of an eye, Wen Mingtang, who was still in front of his eyes just now, had disappeared. Looking at the crowded crowd, Xun Zhou gasped and shouted, "Sister Mingtang?"
There was no response to this sound, Xun Zhou's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly raised his voice: "Sister Mingtang?"
There were quite a few newcomers like him who were startled by the scene in front of them, and they all raised their voices and called out to their companions.
Until the third sound of "Sister Mingtang" sounded, Xun Zhou felt that someone was pulling the hem of his robe, and Xun Zhou quickly lowered his head and saw a head with messy hair.
Xunzhou: "..."
Seeing the girl patted the dust off her body and stood up in a mess, he couldn't help but said, "Forget it! If sister Mingtang wants that book, I'll grab it for sister Mingtang!"
Wen Mingtang nodded immediately after hearing the words, "Okay!"
Sure enough, she is a person with outstanding qualifications, and she really understands the meaning of her words!
After finishing speaking, Wen Mingtang immediately said, "Thank you, Brother Xun!"
Seeing the happy look of the girl in front of him, Xun Zhou inexplicably felt like he had jumped into a pit unknowingly.
It's just that she thanked her so quickly, even if she wanted to regret it, it would be too late.
Xunzhou had no choice but to roll up his sleeves, and when the study clerk reappeared with a stack of scriptures, he immediately rushed forward!
Grabbing the chatting book is incomprehensible at first, and even disagrees with it, but after a few times of snatching, it becomes addictive for no reason.
Grabbing the word book all afternoon, the results are quite fruitful! When he came out of the study, Xun Zhou patted his chest happily, and said to Wen Mingtang: "Sister Mingtang, next time you want to grab a chat book, you can come and find Brother Yu!"
After robbing it several times, he has gained some experience.
Wen Mingtang was also very satisfied with the results of Xunzhou's victory, and nodded immediately: "Definitely..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice behind him.
"Master Wen?"
This voice...Wen Mingtang turned around and saw Zhao You who was holding a few oil paper bags in his hand, and behind Zhao You was Lin Fei in a blue robe.
Although this outfit is not as conspicuous as the scarlet official robes in the usual days, but under the appearance and demeanor, it is quite poetic and picturesque. It has the elegance of a literati and the authority of a powerful official.
After seeing the pile of chat books in her hand, Zhao Youdai, who spoke out, suddenly realized: "I still think that Master Wen said 'sure'! It turns out that it is a chat book! This chat book is really hard to grab, no With a little effort and experience, it's hard to get a new booklet just released..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Fei behind him.
He stared at the embarrassed Wen Mingtang in front of him and sized him up with Xun Zhou, the originally smooth brows wrinkled like wrinkles, getting tighter and tighter. After a long while, he coughed and said, "For things like snatching up the chatting book, I'll just go back to Zhao You!"
Zhao You, who was still showing off a moment ago: "..."
Facing the eyes of everyone looking at him, especially Lin Fei's unquestionable eyes, Zhao You was shocked, and immediately nodded in response: "Okay!"
This response made Xun Zhou, who had gained experience, a little disappointed, but looking at the tall and burly Zhao You in front of him, and then glanced at his hand that was rubbed red when he grabbed the chat book, he didn't open his mouth to grab the job indiscriminately.
Night comes as soon as you say it! It was still half dark when he came out of the study, but it was completely dark when he spoke. Seeing the lanterns hanging up all over the street, it was time for Lin Fei to go back to have dinner with his family and admire the moon. Before leaving, he did not forget to tell Wen Mingtang: "Remember to cast our own lanterns at the lantern festival!"
Such a caring look...Wen Mingtang twitched the corner of his mouth, but still nodded.
Seeing Wen Mingtang nodded, Lin Fei left in peace.
Night is coming.
