After her husband died in battle, she relied on the villain cub to make a comeback.

When Dazhu's boys arrived, Ye Zhizhi went all the way to Wenchuan Academy.

The reputation of Wenchuan Academy is very good, and the structure of the courtyard is also very large.

The reason why Ye Zhizhi asked Dazhu to study here was not because of temporary vanity, but because in the plot of the original book, Dazhu came to study at Wenchuan Academy under the guarantee of Xu Xiucai in the town.

However, Xu Xiucai is not a good person. In the book, he often deceives Dazhu after he is admitted as a scholar, which makes Dazhu's already ruthless and ungrateful character even more gloomy and cunning, making him even more hypocritical and selfish later on. .

Ye Zhizhi felt a headache every time he thought about the plot that kept driving Dazhu to darken. Especially at this moment, he looked down at the innocent and gentle face of this little kid stuffed with black sesame dumplings. He said seriously, "Mom, studying is very expensive. I don't want you to be too busy." I’m tired, how about we go back?”

Of course it's not that he doesn't want to study, it's just that his stepmother used to dislike him reading and writing. She would go crazy and tear up his books every time, insult and beat him, so that he wouldn't dream of becoming a scholar.

Although the stepmother has changed a lot now, he can also see from his interactions with the stepmother these days that most of the time, the stepmother does not ask him to work, but wants him to have a sensible and family-oriented attitude. He will naturally do what the stepmother wants. Although it feels unnecessary.

At this moment, retreating is the way to advance. I think it will make the stepmother feel more sorry for his false sensibleness and dedication.

Unexpectedly, Ye Zhizhi almost laughed out loud when he heard this, "I'm quite tired, but I happen to have a quota in my hand. If you don't want to study, why don't you let Er Zhu do it?"

The smile on Dazhu's face froze.

Will the child who promised to cry get candy?Is the stepmother’s heart made of iron?

Ye Zhizhi rolled his eyes.

We are all thousand-year-old foxes, why are you pretending to be a stranger here with me?

Little bunny.

"Okay, let's go inside quickly."

The three pillars were a bit at a loss. Wenchuan Academy was built with great style, and the majestic characters on the plaque seemed to exude a sacred light.

He looked at his cloth shoes, which were covered with mud from the long journey and were incompatible with the smooth ground.

The reality of being poor and not knowing a few Chinese characters made Sanzhu reluctant to step into such a holy place, for fear of being kicked out mercilessly and embarrassing his mother and brother.

He curled his toes uneasily and said with a loud sound:

"I'll wait for my mother outside..."

"You don't need to wait outside for mother."

Ye Zhizhi raised her hand and put it on the child's shoulder. Because she had experienced poverty and was "crying for poverty" by her adoptive parents and was taught a "suppressive" education, Ye Zhizhi deeply understood that a poor environment will make people feel inferior. When people grow up with low self-esteem, , it is difficult to stand on one's own feet.

"A wise person does not need to be noble, and a benevolent person does not need to live long. There is no need to admire wealth and wealth, and there is no need to worry about poverty. Remember what your mother said, no matter how rich a person is, he only has a bed, a life, and a lifetime. Don't look down on yourself because of your poor family background. What the academy emphasizes is teaching without distinction, preaching, teaching, and solving doubts to those who are aspiring in the world. If he ridicules you because you are poor, then it’s okay for us not to come to this academy!"

"well said!"

An old man in his fifties with white hair came out. The old man had kind eyes, a straight back, and an upright look.

Who is this?

Ye Zhizhi's face was surprised, and then he heard the introduction, "I am the dean of this academy."

After taking the paperwork from Ye Zhizhi, he stroked his beard on his chin and looked at Dazhu,

"You only entered school when you were 12 years old. Did you read any books? Who did you study under? Did you take the scientific examination?"

Generally speaking, most of the students who are recommended by the scholar's sponsors to come to their college have already obtained honors, and many of them are children.

Unexpectedly, Dazhu pursed his lips and shook his head and said, "The student is not talented. I have read a few books with Zhao Tongsheng from the neighboring village, but I have never taken the scientific examination."

"Zhao Tongsheng?" The dean looked him up and down, "What's your name?"

"Xiao Dazhu."

"Xiao Dazhu?" The dean read the name, and the more he read it, the more familiar it seemed, "Are you from Tianshui Village?"

Dazhu nodded.

"Who are you, Jamel Xiao?"

Ye Zhizhi: "..."

Why does this look like a large-scale family recognition scene?

Dazhu said, "It's my father."

Erzhu also felt that the expression in the dean's eyes was a bit strange. He pulled his eldest brother's hand and signaled that his biological father should not be recognized. What would happen if this person had a grudge against his father?

Unexpectedly, the next moment, the dean slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, okay, it's really hard to find anywhere, it takes no effort to get here! I didn't expect that this kid Zhou Shuhe would recommend such a talent to me!" "

Ye Zhizhi: "..."

Wait, Zhou Shuhe?

Isn’t that the current staff of the Zhenguo general and the number one adviser to the future hero and heroine? !

She remembered the original book because the heroine cured the stepson's stubborn illness for General Zhen Guo, brought the child to the right path, marched and fought in battles and made achievements, and only then did she win Zhou Shuhe's wholehearted support.

But how could Zhou Shuhe appear in such a remote place now? !

Ye Zhizhi's head buzzed, and he always felt like something flashed quickly between the lightning and flint.

Dazhu straightened his back. Being able to win the dean's favor would naturally help him avoid many detours. However, "I wonder if the dean knows my father?"

"We know each other! We know each other naturally."

After the dean found out that he was Xiao Jingheng's son, he became a lot more friendly and invited him directly to his wooden house. Tea, water and everything else were prepared.

"Jing Heng, this kid, is a good prospect. When he was seven years old, he passed the Children's Student Examination. I knew he would do great things, but it was a pity... his parents delayed him. Because his family was poor, he could only Go and work hard in the military camp!”

Ye Zhizhi didn't really know much about her cheap husband. She only vaguely remembered that he was very good-looking and had tight forearm muscles through the memory of the original owner. The scorching temperature when the original owner designed him to jump into the river to save her, There were also manly movements that made her, a single woman, feel a little uncontrollably excited just thinking about it.

However, good people don’t live long.

But it seems that the dean means this because Xiao Jingheng is too good and he thinks Dazhu is not far behind, so he wants to train his son?

I have to say that Ye Zhizhi has revealed the truth.

That's what the dean really thinks, a capable biological father and a stepmother who can support him.

Marry a virtuous wife, and a virtuous wife will bring prosperity to three generations. In this environment, Dazhu will definitely be no different!

As long as you train well, you may be able to pass the exam!

Immediately he said, "Let your mother buy the pens, inks, paper and inkstones she needs to buy, hand them over to Shu Xiu, and move in directly. You will study and practice calligraphy tomorrow! You don't know how to ask me in private."

Ye Zhizhi was stunned, "He wants to live here?"

The dean nodded, "The distance between the town and your countryside is too far. The time wasted on the road back and forth every day is worse than writing a few more big characters."

Ye Zhizhi felt that what the dean said made sense.

So after saying goodbye to the dean, Ye Zhizhi took out three taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Shu Xiu, and took out another five taels, one tael for each of the five children.

The money in Dazhu's hands must be used to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

The three pillars looked at each other and said to the stepmother, "We don't want any money. Let's keep the money for my eldest brother to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones."

"You are all good boys, but you should share this money among yourself. Everyone is the same and must be treated fairly."

Ye Zhizhi believes that they have the right to spend money on themselves instead of giving all the time.

After saying that, he took a few children to buy new clothes.

In other words, it is not easy to train scholars. A set of clothes only costs three hundred coins, but Dazhu bought two books for one tael of silver!

"It's true that paper is as expensive as an ox."

Ye Zhizhi was amazed when he saw it, and said directly, "Since you spent the money to buy books, there is no extra money to buy clothes for you. You can wear your old clothes next."

"But mother, didn't you get 38 taels from grandma? Apart from what you spent today, you still have some left. You can buy me clothes. I have to dress better in the academy, and it also makes my mother look good."

Of course Dazhu doesn't want to wear rags in the college like begging for food, and his younger siblings all have new clothes. As the most promising person in the family, all good things should come to him.

He said directly, "Don't worry, mother, you can help me buy clothes first. When I become successful, I will definitely be filial to you."

You can pull it down.

Ye Zhizhi saw through Dazhu's selfishness at a glance.

I thought to myself, I might as well believe that a sow can climb a tree.

He said earnestly, "There is some money left, but I keep it all for myself.

You also know that you are young now, so you can endure more hardships, and you will have plenty of time to enjoy blessings in the future. But I am different. I am getting older day by day, so I must hurry up and enjoy blessings. "
