"Shuhuai, I remember that you went to the school in town before?" Zheng Qingming looked at the young man walking beside him. He had a slender figure and a scholarly air.

“There were too many things to do in the school in town, and I couldn’t study with peace of mind, so I dropped out and came back.

And I heard that the scholar invited by the village chief this time is a real talent, the tuition is much lower than that in the town, and it is also closer to home."

Yang Shuhuai thought of the school in the town and his eyes turned cold.

In his previous life, he studied in that school for three years and was often bullied by young masters from wealthy families.

At that time, he looked down on the teacher invited by the village because he was just a scholar. The teacher in his school in the town was a juren, so he did not return to the village to study.

It was not until later when he arrived at the court that he discovered that the scholar he had not liked turned out to have such an extraordinary background.

And he was not just an ordinary scholar, but a top scholar who had won the top three places in the imperial examination.

If he had followed the other person to study at that time, the road ahead would not have been so difficult.

The two men came to the village chief's house while talking. When the village chief Wang Dehai saw them coming, he understood what was going on.

"Qingming and Shuhuai, you are here, come in and sit down."

"Uncle Dehai"

"Uncle Dehai"

The four people greeted the village chief politely and walked into the village chief's yard together.

The village chief's house is the only large blue brick and tile house in the village. It has a spacious courtyard and six main rooms, which makes Qingming envious.

He became more determined to study hard and build such a grand tiled house for his family in the future.

Wang Dehai invited them to sit in the hall, where there was a table and several chairs.

There was a booklet on the table, with pen and ink next to it.

The reason why Wang Dehai was able to become the village chief was because he himself was a student.

As a scholar, his entire temperament is very different from that of other people in the village.

Zheng Qingming looked at the village chief. Shu Huai's temperament was very similar to his.

"Sit down, everyone. Tell me what brought you here today?"

Wang Dehai sat down on the chair in front of the books and looked at the four young boys with smiles on their faces.

I have to say that these four children are the most outstanding in the village.

The two brothers of the Yang family are quiet and handsome, and the two brothers of the Zheng family have clear eyes, and they both look like kind children.

The key is that these children are all good-looking, but in different styles.

I think no matter who looks at them, they will give them sincere praise.

Yang Shuhuai spoke in a gentle voice, "Uncle Dehai, we are all here to register for the school."

Although Wang Dehai had already guessed it, he was still happy to hear them say it themselves.

As the village chief, what he most wanted to see was that the young people in the village could have a bright future, and he sent his two sons to study in the town.

"Well, reading is a good thing. Even if you don't take the imperial examination, it's good to know more words. Besides, our village has invited only a few teachers this time, so this is a rare opportunity."

As he said this, he looked at the Zheng Qingming brothers. To be honest, Wang Dehai was a little surprised that the two brothers could come.

He knew the situation of Zheng Laoer's family best. He thought that at most the younger one, Lixia, would come to school, but he didn't expect that Qingming would come as well.

Zheng Qingming felt a little embarrassed when he was stared at. "Uncle Dehai, I'm already this old, is it too late for me to study now?"

"Hahaha, there's nothing too late for this. When your uncle passed the examination to become a student, I was already in my twenties. You're only thirteen or fourteen this year. There's nothing too late for this."

"Uncle Dehai, I didn't expect to pass the imperial examination. I just thought that if I learn more knowledge, I would understand more.

Xiaoman said that reading can help people understand the truth and have a longer-term vision.

Although I am a little older now, I will definitely work hard. "

Wang Dehai nodded with satisfaction, "I'm glad you think so. You are a good child. What Xiaoman said is right. Reading more will always be good for you.

Just study hard and you will have a chance to pass the imperial examination in the future."

He looked at Yang Shuhuai again, "Shuhuai, you have studied before, right?"

Yang Shuhuai nodded and said, "I studied in town for a while."

"Okay, you already have some basics, so it will be easier to learn later. I'll register your names first, as there are enough people who have signed up now.

When Mr. Fang arrives in a few days, we will officially start the class."

Zheng Qingming and the others stood up and thanked him, "Thank you, Uncle Dehai."

"Okay, stop being polite to me. Just study hard with Mr. Fang from now on."

A few people talked to the village chief for a few more words and then said goodbye and left.

On the way back, I met a young girl on the roadside. The girl had delicate features and was wearing a brand new pink dress, which was very eye-catching.

When the girl saw several people coming, her eyes lit up when she saw Yang Shuhuai.

"Brother Shuhuai." The girl opened her pearly teeth slightly, her voice was gentle and there was a hint of shyness in her voice.

Yang Shuhuai frowned slightly, nodded politely to the girl, and then walked past her without looking away.

Zheng Qingming took a look at the girl and found out that she was the wintersweet from Wang Wenchang's family.

He glanced away and continued walking forward.

La Mei wanted to call out to Yang Shuhuai, but she felt embarrassed because there were so many people around.

She was secretly annoyed that the other party ignored her, but she had no choice but to bite her lower lip lightly and finally turned and left.

Zheng Qingming looked at Yang Shuhuai and hesitated for a while before asking, "Are Shuhuai and Lamei familiar with each other?"

Yang Shuhuai shook his head, "I don't know him."

Zheng Qingming breathed a sigh of relief, "Shuhuai, you'd better not get too close to her. Lamei's mother wants to marry her daughter to the town."

Although it was wrong to talk about people behind their backs, he still kindly reminded Yang Shuhuai.

La Mei's mother looked down on the villagers like them. If she knew that La Mei and Shu Huai were involved, given her personality, she would definitely not give in.

Yang Shuhuai chuckled, "Okay, I get it. If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't know whose daughter she was. I will stay away from her in the future."

What he said was the truth. In his previous life, he was totally focused on studying and never paid attention to the girls in the village.

However, he had heard of La Mei Niang's reputation. She was a notoriously difficult woman in the village.

It’s better to have less dealings with people like this. He is not afraid of them, but it will be very annoying.

During this round trip, Yang Shuxing and Lixia became good friends.

Yang Shuxing invited Lixia to his home, and Lixia invited him to her home to see the rabbits.

Zheng Qingming and Yang Shuhuai had a pretty good chat. One had experienced the vicissitudes of life, while the other had a pure mind. They surprisingly could talk to each other.

The two of them agreed to go to school together, and then they separated and went home.
