After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

Gu Nanxi's words gave the young man Su Xuanming a renewed fighting spirit.

As soon as the sky was getting light, he walked on the morning dew to report to the academy.

However, someone arrived earlier than him.

In the green mist, a figure as tall and pretty as a green bamboo appeared in front of the courtyard gate.

"Who are you? Who are you looking for?" Su Xuanming asked softly, afraid of scaring the woman.

"My name is Wen Yu. Does your academy recruit female students?" Wen Yu turned around, and a faint smile gradually appeared on her fair face, making her look even more beautiful.

Su Xuanming lowered his head quickly and stopped looking at the girl: "Yes. But the situation at Baichuan Academy is a little special. Does your family agree?"

"I am alone and I don't need anyone's consent."

"I am sorry for being so presumptuous." Su Xuanming opened the gate of the courtyard and invited Wen Yu to come in for a look. "Do you have a maid to accompany you? Our academy is located in a remote place. It might be inconvenient for you as a woman."

Wen Yu turned around by himself and said with emotion: "It is indeed a study and a humble room."

Su Xuanming blushed, feeling ashamed: "I am short of money, I am sorry to have embarrassed you, young lady."

Wen Yu didn't mind and asked cheerfully, "How do I collect the tuition? I don't live in the school, and I have servants to pick me up."

Su Xuanming breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately this new student did not live on campus!

The academy currently has only two houses, one for Li Daniu and the other for himself to use occasionally overnight.

Su Xuanming held up a finger: "One tael per semester!"

"Okay! I'll report back when school starts. But is the wife of Marquis Yongchang giving a lecture?"

"Ah? Right!"

There is only one teacher, A Niang, in the whole school. If she doesn’t teach, no one else can!

Wen Yu was like a gust of wind, coming lightly, walking around the academy, and then leaving lightly...

Su Xuanming sat on the stone pillar in the courtyard, stunned for a moment. After a while, he ran to Li Daniu's room and shook the sleeping Li Daniu: "We have a new student in our academy! We have a new student in our academy!"

Li Daniu, who was sleepy, opened his eyes with difficulty and said weakly: "Congratulations, Dalang! Congratulations, Dalang! But, can you let me sleep a little longer? There was a commotion in the yard yesterday. Tonight, I must catch that little thief!"

Li Daniu's words were like a basin of cold water, pouring over Jiang Su Xuanming from head to toe.

Could it be that they were sent by Principal Wu and the Chief Priest?

What do they want to do? Burn down the academy?!

Su Xuanming's face showed a struggle, and finally he said firmly: "Tonight, I will keep watch with you!"

Li Daniu glanced at Su Xuanming, whose steps were unsteady, turned over and continued to sleep soundly.

Su Xuanming first walked around the academy but found no firewood or kerosene. He then went to the study but found nothing missing.

The old farmer who was selling the house saw him acting suspiciously and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Su Dalang, what are you doing?"

Su Xuanming was startled by the old farmer's voice. Seeing that it was an acquaintance, he patted his chest and said, "Old man, why are you here? Li Daniu said that a thief broke into the academy last night. I was afraid that the thief might harm the academy, so I wanted to find some clues."

The old farmer had a strange look on his face, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Old man, did you see anyone suspicious last night?" Su Xuanming lay on the ground, raised his butt and checked the fence.

The old farmer put down his carrying pole and could not help but remind him: "Su Dalang, don't look for him anymore. He is not by the fence."

"Why?"

The old farmer took out a pipe from his backpack, pinched a handful of dry leaves and put them on top: "Because there are more than just this one thief. In the past ten years, I don't know how many people have come to the yard to rob."

"Ah?!" Su Xuanming quickly got up, his eyes wide open as if they were bells. "Is there something hidden in the courtyard? But we didn't find anything."

The old farmer rolled his eyes and said, "If you can find it, will it be your turn to buy it?"

"Ten years ago, there was a rumor in Kyoto that there were rare treasures buried in my courtyard. So, no matter whether it was day or night, people would come to search for it secretly."

Perhaps thinking of something infuriating, the old farmer tapped his pipe heavily and said, "Humph, these wicked people even didn't spare the rice that was about to ear. A good rice field was completely ruined!"

Su Xuanming glanced at the weed-covered wasteland and muttered quietly, "This field doesn't look like one that can be used to grow rice."

The old farmer used a shoulder pole to lift the soil under his feet, and saw that the soil under the weeds was actually brown-black. "You are the eldest son of the wife of the Marquis of Yongchang. How could I deceive you? Because of the harassment in those years, I was fed up, so I simply stopped farming and made a lot of fertilizer on this land."

"They are so disgusting!" The old farmer cursed and continued, "In the spring, you should turn the land over and remove the weeds, and it will become a first-class farm!"

After ten years of recuperation, the fields are still used as fertilizers every year. They are precious land that is even harder to find than first-class fields!

"Thank you very much, old man."

Su Xuanming didn't quite understand the value of this piece of black soil, but the old farmers said he had gotten a great deal, so he decided to express his gratitude.

Seeing the old farmer about to leave, Su Xuanming hurriedly called him: "Old man, what is this treasure?"

The old farmer walked away with his hands behind his back. He didn't need to hold the pole, but it stayed steady on his shoulders. "I don't know. No one has found it. No one knows what kind of treasure it is."

Su Xuanming sighed heavily. Well, after listening to the story, he still didn't understand what had happened.

As Su Xuanming was eagerly waiting, night fell.

The dark clouds were like a black veil, covering the bright moon, leaving only a hazy light shining on the silent earth.

Li Daniu blew out the candle and gestured to Su Xuanming to hold his breath and not make any sound.

The large bamboo window is covered with a layer of gauze.

Li Daniu carefully lifted a corner of the window screen, squinted one eye, and looked out the window.

Su Xuanming followed suit and lifted the other corner.

In the darkness of the night, the hunter lurks secretly, competing with his prey in endurance.

Perhaps it was yesterday’s success that gave the prey courage.

I saw a gray figure rushing out from the dry ditch in the field, picking up a hoe and starting to dig.

After digging for a few times, the man stopped, looked around, and saw that there was no one, so he continued digging!

Su Xuanming wanted to rush forward but was stopped by Li Daniu.

The next second, the man stopped and continued to look around like a groundhog in the field!

It turned out that he was just pretending! What a cunning little thief!

Su Xuanming was shocked. Nowadays, even a petty thief has to resort to conspiracy and intrigue?

Li Daniu narrowed his eyes, and when the man was immersed in digging the soil, he jumped over the fence like a cunning rabbit, ran to the man, and knocked him down!

"You little thief, where are you running to? How dare you tamper with your Grandpa Li's land!"
