A scholar becomes a landlord

Wei Le wanted to say a lot to his disciples, but he opened his mouth and finally gave up.It is worth your collection Some words are said ten thousand times, it is better to experience them in person.

"Yes, I would like to follow the teacher's instructions."

Li Ping saluted earnestly and admitted that with such a situation, even if they are fascinated by the colorful world outside, they still have to consider whether it is worthwhile for them to do so.

Wei Le looked at several disciples who had grown from children to teenagers. In the blink of an eye, they were all so big. In a few years, they would grow taller and stronger than him, and he would be old by then.

"gentlemen."

"It's nothing. Since I've given these things to you, you don't have to refuse any more. Although you come from poor families, you have seen many good things in Wei Shi's family these years. Don't be fooled by the outside world." , let alone agree to do things for others just for a little money."

Wei Le really put his heart and soul into these few disciples, and he probably will be like this if he wants to have a son!

"The disciple understands."

Well, the elders didn't dare to resign, so they accepted the things.But they felt more grateful to Wei Le in their hearts. They all knew that this time they went to the county town for the exam and met a lot of people.At first I heard that they were from the countryside, and the scholars in the city looked down on them in various ways, and the fact that the four of them were only wearing ordinary cotton clothes made people look down even more.

It wasn't until later that the four of them passed the examination and were selected as scholars, and after learning that they were students of the master, these people came forward, and it was very annoying that they couldn't be torn off like dog skin plasters.

So the four of them know what it means to look down on people with a dog's eyes, what it means to hold high and step down, and what it means to be wealthy.If the four of them went out wearing such clothes at that time, who would look down on people and even say some bad words.

If it weren't for the housekeeper Xiaojin and the others, they couldn't imagine how difficult the life of the four children in the county would be.Their father, Landlord Li, often came to the county to do business, but he was just a businessman, and his business was only small, so he couldn't get into the eyes of these people at all.

He also doesn't understand the rules of literati's favor. Even if he is in charge of the county, it is impossible for the four of them to pass the college entrance examination safely and smoothly.

Therefore, Mr. Xiaojin had the foresight to let the steward Xiaojin take the four of them to participate in the hospital examination. The four of them admired him very much.They were even allowed to wear ordinary cotton clothes in order to prevent them from being watched in a high-profile manner. Although it was inevitable that they would be looked down upon by others, it was in line with their identities—students from poor families.

That's right, they are poor students.If they didn't go to Wei Le, it would not be easy for them to go to school.Even if Landlord Li's family property is quite rich, it is not a problem to support his three sons to study, but he has no connections, and a good gentleman is not so easy to hire.

Their three sons can only invite scholars who are also from poor families to sit in their studies. Although such gentlemen are welcome, but these scholars have limited knowledge.

How can it compare to Wei Le's birth in the Marquis's Mansion, even if he is a bastard, his knowledge is not comparable to these talented scholars from poor families.Not to mention that Wei Le's knowledge is far superior to theirs, not only teaching his disciples the Four Books and Five Classics, but also teaching piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, which other talents don't understand.It is a blessing to be able to read and write, and they don't even know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

In addition, Wei Le also taught them many rules and etiquettes of rich families. It can be said that if the clothes on them were not too ordinary and shabby, some people would have misunderstood him as a disciple of an aristocratic family!

This alone can surpass many students from poor families, and the starting point is higher than that of others, so their knowledge exceeds other students who were also born in peasant households.

Over the years, Wei Le taught them not only the contents of the books, but also a lot of knowledge that was not taught in the books.The four of them have little knowledge, and they don't know that their knowledge is a little worse than the children of the big family in the capital, but this is an innate gap, even if Wei Le can make up for it, it is impossible to make up for it in a few years. They can rely on their own efforts in the future. Anyway, now Wei Le has laid a good foundation for them. As long as they strive hard, one day they will be no worse than the children of the aristocratic family.

After sending his disciples to study in the study, Wei Le sighed and sat in the yard facing the breeze and scorching sun.

"Why are you sitting here? Even in the villa, the sun is poisonous!"

When Yi Feng came out, he saw his partner sitting in the yard with no energy, even skipping his lunch break.

"Thinking about the future of Li Ping and the others, I can see that Li Ping doesn't like officialdom very much, but he has to try whatever he can for the sake of the Li family."

Wei Le leaned in Yi Feng's arms, he knew the characters of the four disciples very well, Li Ping was the most soft-hearted and easy to speak, he was the most loving to the brothers and juniors below, and he was also stable.But this is not what Wei Le wants, he only hopes that his disciples can live comfortably, but now it seems that even if he doesn't force his disciples, they will force themselves.

Alas, people in the world always have so much helplessness. It is estimated that there are not many people like him who do what they want and ignore the world.

The world always says that people are helpless, and he used to think so.But after transmigrating to the ancient times, apart from being a little cautious in the first two years, his life couldn't be more comfortable in the future.Do whatever you want, and never worry about being forced to do something you don't want to do.

This is even more so after being with Yi Feng, he follows himself in everything and never does anything that embarrasses him.There are also Xia Juan and his son and the husband in the capital, they never force him.

Compared with Li Ping's disciples, he has no burden from the family, and he doesn't need to bear any responsibility for the Wei family, and shoulders the glory of his ancestors.

To him, the Wei family has nothing to do with him. He protects them to survive in the county because of the original owner. He doesn't owe the Wei family anything, so there is no need to think about them.

If they want to restore their former glory, they need Wei Le to be willing, but he is an unwilling master, so even if they know Wei Le is a great talent, they can't force Wei Le to take the exam in Beijing, they can only stay in the county town obediently, do An ordinary family.

The glory of the past is nothing but the past, and now they are just a group of ordinary people, a group of ordinary people who rely on Wei Le to live.

"There is no way to have the best of both worlds in this world. Since they have taken this path, they can only continue on. Master Li has paid a lot for them. As a son, of course he cannot let his father down."

It can be said that compared with Yi Feng and Wei Le's fathers, Master Li is really a loving father to his three sons, and the three sons are also raised very well by him.I told them since they were young that no matter what their future prospects are, half of the family business belongs to the eldest son, and the other half is divided equally between the second and youngest sons.

Because Mr. Li clearly expressed his intentions, the three children have never had any disputes about the family business since they were young.Moreover, in the hearts of Li An and Li Kang, the elder brother is the eldest son, so he should share more than them, and the two of them can get [-]% of the share, which is quite a lot.Especially after they go to school, the more knowledge they learn, the more they realize that the person who actually suffers from the distribution of the family property is the eldest brother.

If it is divided according to the method of the big family, the eldest son can inherit [-]% to [-]% of the family property, and there are even some families where all the property can only be inherited by the eldest son. No.

Compared with them, I am not satisfied with getting [-]% ​​and half, only my eldest brother suffers.But Li Ping didn't care, he had a good relationship with his two younger brothers, but half of the family property was nothing special.If it wasn't for his father's insistence that he still wants to divide the family property equally!

"That's right, since he was born in the Li family and has the protection of Master Li, he should stand up for his family."

Wei Le nodded. He and Yi Feng had no choice but to cultivate their parental relationship, so they could ignore their parents' wishes, but Li Ping was different. He was the eldest son, and he was loved by Master Li since he was a child. make a contribution.

"So don't feel bad, they have to walk their own way when they grow up, you can't protect them for the rest of their lives, so when will they stand alone and become good men who stand up to the sky?"

Yi Feng knows that his partner protects his weaknesses, and he is reluctant to bear the slightest suffering for those close to him, but he also understands that people don't suffer, how can they understand that the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold?Then he will never grow up, never be able to take responsibility, just like a child who is ignorant and naive.

Wei Le does not want his disciple to become such a person, so he will not speak out to persuade him in this regard.

"I understand, Brother Feng, don't worry."

Wei Le knew that Yi Feng was persuading him because he was afraid that he would feel bad, and he was not an ignorant three-year-old, so why didn't he understand his thoughtfulness.

It was just unavoidable that he felt a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, he also knew not to intervene too much in the choices of his disciples, otherwise he would not be a life mentor, but would force his disciples to take a path he thought was good.Like many parents, if you think this path is good, you decide for your children, regardless of whether they are suitable or not, you just have to follow it anyway.

It’s fine if you have talent, but the terrible thing is that you are forced to learn without talent, and you get tired of learning after a long time. There are even students who are pressured by their parents and commit suicide.

Every time I see such news, the parents only regret it after the death of the child, but it is too late now, the child is already dead, so what is the use of regretting it?What children want to learn, talent is one of them, and then interest, what else can parents' blind persecution do besides make them more disgusted?It's a pity that the parents just can't see it, and insist on letting their children do what they want. As a result, they hurt their children, and finally lose them in exchange for a lifetime of pain.

Therefore, Wei Le is extremely unwilling to force his disciples. They want to learn whatever they want, and if they are talented and interested, even if he doesn't know it himself, he will find a way to arrange a teacher for them.

Don't look at Xia Jue's tossing around every day after he came to Wei's house, but occasionally he would point out the four people's piano and chess paintings. In terms of calligraphy, he is not as good as Wei Le so he won't make a fool of himself.But the other three are much better than Wei Le. Last time, the fan Wei Le made out of the fan he drew was very happy.Now holding the fan with the picture of lotus after the rain every day, it gave Xia Kun enough face.

"Go in! The sun is hot outside, your forehead is full of sweat, and you will suffer from heat stroke if you continue to expose yourself to the sun."

Yi Feng took Wei Le back to the room, and the whole yard fell silent, the sound of cicadas was telling everyone that it was midsummer, the hottest season of the year.
