The sad reminder of the science man

The next day, Xue's father went on business as usual, Xue's mother took Xue Hao to Wang's house first, then went to Wei's house with Shi Shi, and Xue Jia went to Cheng's house.

After Xue Chi returned to his yard yesterday, he still couldn't write a word.He knew that if he spoke casually, he would definitely be trained badly.Although the master was very kind to him, he was always very strict in his studies. Xue Zhi knew that the master would rather hand in blank papers by himself, and never wanted to see himself sloppy, perfunctory, and hand in homework casually.

Xue Chi came to Cheng's mansion without writing a word of homework.

Xue Chi came to the study and took the initiative to confess, "Master, I can't come out."

Cheng Gong saw that there was nothing Xue Chi in his hands, and nodded to show that he knew, "Then do you know why you can't write it?"

Xue Chi had already thought about how to say it last night, "I saw a lot and learned a lot during my trip to Yongding River. I have a lot of ideas and questions. I thought I would write a lot and I could write a lot. , but apart from jotting down things along the way, when I arrived in the capital, I couldn’t write a single word.”

Cheng Gong looked at Xue Chi's confused face, and said, "This is normal, which means that you haven't learned the basics yet. I let you go this way to let you find out the problem yourself. Anyone who is a teacher can directly Tell you, but I don’t feel as deeply as myself.”

Xue Chi said something to Cheng Gong, nodded his head, "Yes, I know that Master is for my own good, then I will..."

Cheng Gong knew that Xue Chi understood what he meant, so he didn't hold back, "I borrowed a batch of files from the Ministry of Industry, all of which are related to the Yongding River, such as water volume, flood season, landform, etc. Since you have gone through it yourself, I believe you I have a general impression in my mind, so you see it and think about combining these files to read and learn carefully, I believe you will gain something. If you don’t understand, write it down first, and the teacher will find someone to give it to you For explanations, there are specializations in the art industry, and it is still necessary for professionals to explain a certain professional field.”

"Thank you, master." Xue Zhi knew that the master was good to him, and now that he heard that the master may have a whimsical ambition for someone like himself, he went to so much trouble.For a while, Xue Chi was full of emotion.

Cheng Gong looked at Xue Chiru's eyes. This child was grown up by himself, and he studied hard. Ideally, Cheng Gong would support it, "The teacher has already brought the file, and it's all over that table, Chi'er, you can go over and start now, and act quickly, this file still has to be returned to the Ministry of Industry. "

After hearing Cheng Gong's words, Xue Jia wanted to start immediately, but hesitated for a while, and asked, "Master, can I take it home to study? I have something to do today, and I want to go back early."

Cheng Gong glanced at Xue Chi in surprise, but still replied: "No, when I borrowed these files from the Ministry of Industry, I said that these files will only belong to Cheng's family, and they will never be seen anywhere else. What's the matter with you?" , If you can’t do it today, just come back tomorrow, a day or two, it’s still fine.”

Xue Chi was disappointed when he heard that he couldn't take it home, but he still wanted to share the good news with Master, "Master, last night, my father told me that my brother's marriage is over. Mother took my sister to Wei's house today, I don't know what's going on, I want to go back early and wait for news."

Cheng Gong became interested, "Oh, this is a great event! Who is the mediator and when did it happen? Why didn't you mention it before?"

Xue Jia explained, "It's my uncle. Didn't my brother follow my uncle to take office? Then I met Mr. Wei, and then Mr. Wei told his uncle that he thought my brother was good and wanted to get married. That's it. I just did it yesterday." I know." Xue Chi's tone was a bit displeased as he said that, Xue Chi was obviously upset that he got the news so late.

Cheng Gong watched Xue Jia grow up, so he knew what he was thinking now, so he teased him and said, "Okay, I know you heard that Xue Pan is going to marry a wife, but you don't have one, so are you overwhelmed?" , I also want to find a wife!"

Xue Chi was furious at what Cheng Gong said, and shouted loudly, "Master, what are you talking about! I'm still young?"

Cheng Gong thought about this for several years, and Xue Chi was also at the age of marrying a wife. He touched Xue Chi's head and said, "It's not too young, Xue Pan and Chi'er are twins. Now that Xue Pan is going to get married, what do your parents say?" When is it your turn?"

Xue Jia really thinks that he is still young, and this should be put in the modern age. At the age of 16, he can't get a marriage certificate, but he also knows that since Xue Pan has negotiated, he will be the next one. He only hopes to be able to delay until the age of 18. , at least he is an adult, so that Xue Jia will not feel that he is going to commit the crime of early marriage, thinking in his heart, but Xue Jia still does not forget to answer Cheng Gong's question, "No, neither father nor mother said, master, besides, I am now true. If I don’t have this heart, I was still arrogant when I think about it. To achieve something, I still have a lot to work on. Now that I have set a goal, I am not the kind of person who gives up easily.”

Cheng Gong looked at the disciples full of fighting spirit, and felt relieved, "That's good, you have this kind of heart, it is worth affirming, but you can't stop getting married because of this! I think it should be your turn after Xue Pan is done. Your father I also asked me what I think about your marriage. Now the teacher wants to ask you, Chi'er, let me tell you what you think?"

Xue Jia scratched his head, "I don't know, I haven't thought about it, but I listen to the arrangement of my parents and master, and I have no objection. However, I hope to find someone like my mother."

Cheng Gong looked at Xue Chi who was blushing, and said, "That means you want to find a gentle and virtuous man? Well, let's not talk about being a teacher, you go back! But you still have to come early tomorrow, and I will let you go today. If you want to help, I will not stop you as a teacher, but you can't relax because of what you should do, do you understand?" Cheng Gong's tone became more and more severe as he said.

Xue Jia hurriedly promised, "Yes, Master. I promise, I will come early tomorrow morning. Then, Master, I am leaving."

Cheng Gong waved his hand, "Go! Remember to come early tomorrow, but it's free early in the morning, just the same as usual class time."

For the sake of Chenggong's little humor, Xue Jia thought that her mother didn't know what was going on when she went to Wei's house today, so she didn't stay at Cheng's house any longer, "Okay, master, I'm leaving." Then he exited the study.

When Xue Jia returned home, none of the family members came back. Xue's father was always like this because of today's court affairs, while Xue's mother and Xue Hao were still from the Wei family according to the servants and did not come out.

Xue Chi ate alone, walked around in the hall, and finally didn't want to wait, so he went back to the study to see the notes he had taken on the way. He didn't forget that he would go to the master's house to read the case files tomorrow?Xue Jia looked at the essays that recorded what he saw and thought at the time, recalled the scene at that time, and added the viewpoints that he did not think of on the road after the essays.Very Xue Zhi gradually forgot the other things, and only the rustling sound of writing and the occasional sound of turning pages could be heard in the study.

Xue Jia was very serious, and no one bothered him. It was not until dinner that the maid came to report.

"Second master, the master and wife are passing on the meal, please come over!" The big maid beside Xue Chi, Shuimu, stood at the door of the study and shouted inside.

Xue Jia put down his pen, took a breath, put the things back together, and then walked out of the study, "Father, mother, they came back, why didn't they notify me, didn't I say that they would report to me as soon as they came back?"

Mizuki watched Xue Chi come out, and hurriedly ordered the little maid to bring the washbasin, "Second master, the master came back first, and looked at the second master's study, so I asked the slaves not to disturb the second master." Said Mizuki twisted a handkerchief and handed it to him. Xue Chi.

Xue Chi took the veil, wiped his face casually, and washed his hands carefully. You must know that his hands were still stained with ink all afternoon in the study, "Oh, then, forget it, but it can't be like this next time." , don’t tell me it doesn’t work if I ordered it?”

Mizuki knew that his second master had never been cruel, so he was not afraid, but took a dry handkerchief and put it aside, wiped Xue Chi's hands, and said with a smile, "It's my servant's fault. I will never dare to do it again. Please ask me Forgive me this time."

Xue Chi withdrew his hand, turned around and walked out, "Then you also remember that, then go to the dining hall!"

When Xue Jia came to the dining hall, Xue's father and the others all, Xue Jia invited Ann again, seeing that the food had already been served, and it was obvious that he sat down to eat obediently as if he had finished eating, but seeing Xue's mother rising The corner of the mouth, it seems that things are done.

Sure enough, after dinner, the four members of the Xue family came to the east wing next to the hall, and Mother Xue smiled and said, "Master, I went to Wei's house with my sister-in-law today. The Wei family also knew about this and agreed to complete this agreement." Marriage-related matters. Today we checked the date and said that tomorrow and five days later are good days for Nacai. I thought tomorrow was too late, so I decided to go to Weijia Nacai in five days. The master said it was feasible?"

Father Xue nodded, "Well, yes, although the time is a bit urgent, the next steps can only be carried out after accepting the item, so the item for accepting must be properly prepared, and there must be no sloppy."

Xue's mother is very concerned about this matter, "Don't worry, master, in fact, since we entered Beijing, I have been secretly preparing for it, but because the master said it too suddenly yesterday, I was a little flustered today. It has been five days. Buffer, this acceptance will definitely not be a problem."

Father Xue believed in Mother Xue's ability to be a housekeeper. Hearing what Mother Xue said, he let go of his worries, "Since you are prepared, then do more actions. Don't be afraid of spending money."

Mother Xue heard what Father Xue said, although she was puzzled why she was in such a hurry, but since the master had spoken, she would not ask why, but did her best, "Understood, master, but our Xue family is anxious. It's useless, it depends on what arrangements the Wei family has."

"Don't worry about the Wei family, the Wei family must have the same idea as our Xue family." After Father Xue said this, he refused to say anything else.Instead, she listened to Xue's mother narrating what Na Cai was going to do and what to prepare.

Father Xue listened to the stick of incense, the gift cake, the wedding candy, etc. Then Father Xue looked at Kong, and told his brother and sister Xue Jia and Xue Jia who had been talking to the side, "It's nothing to do with you, go down, it's you Brother's marriage, you also have to serve snacks, help your mother more, understand?"

Xue Jia, father of Xue and mother of Xue approached Xue Hao when they were talking, and asked them about Wei's family affairs today, so he also knew, now that father Xue said this, he would not refuse, "I see, dad, brother now, don't you?" If you want me to come forward, you and your mother will tell me."

Xue Hao also responded, "Father, I will help mother."

Seeing the two of them opening their mouths, Father Xue quickly interrupted Mother Xue, "Okay, don't you see that the children are all tired? That's all for today, I still have business to deal with."

Only then did Xue's mother stop talking, looked at the master, then at Xue Jia and Xue Hao, and then at the sky, and said hurriedly, "Then the master should pay attention to his body when working at night, and add a cloak! And don't be too busy Evening. Chi'er and Hao'er also go down to rest. I heard that Chi'er spends the whole afternoon in the study, so don't go into the study at night and go to bed early. The same goes for Hao'er. He must be too tired to go out with his mother today. sleep!"

Father Xue nodded, Xue Jia and Xue Hao also came forward to say goodnight, followed Father Xue and Mother Xue out of the east wing room, and after leaving the door, the four of them walked in their respective directions.
