Bamboo ink fragrance in front of the court

From Xushi to Haishi, Su Mo, who had washed up and waited for Gu Tingchen, thought he would not come, but was about to go to bed when he heard a knock on the door.Open the door, it's not who Gu Tingchen would be.

"Open the door without asking who it is. What if you encounter bad people? Huainan is not peaceful." Facing Gu Tingchen's reminder, Su Mo just smiled, "Where are there so many bad people? I haven’t made any enmity with anyone since I just arrived here.”

"In any case, it's better to take precautions. What should I do if something happens to you?" Su Mo felt that Gu Tingchen's words were enough.He now has the courage, the courage to see Gu Tingchen and him go to the end.If it is said that Sanshengshi has devoted all his trust and previous concerns, then trust is all that is removed now.

Su Mo told Gu Tingchen the two points he hadn't understood before, "Why?"

"The next thing to do is to deal with the local officials who privately increased taxes and made troubles due to successive years of disasters. The Holy Majesty's intention cannot be ignored. But this is probably the Holy Majesty's test. Su Mo, I have already contacted a farmer's family in the suburbs Alright. Tomorrow you will go to live there, and you only need to tutor the couple's only child on weekdays." Gu Tingchen seemed to have arranged everything for the time being, and Su Mo didn't mind.

"how about you?"

"I'll probably be busy for a while in the near future. The farmer's house is a little way from the town, but I will find an opportunity to come out and find you. Take care of yourself these days." Gu Tingchen explained eagerly, as if he was just an excuse Come out, I'm afraid I have to hurry back now.

"En. Tingchen, you...be more careful in handling things." Seeing Gu Tingchen's concerns, he hurriedly added at the end: "I will take care of myself."

He wrote the address of the farmhouse together with the name of the owner's house to Su Mo and said goodbye in a hurry, "Then I'm leaving."

"it is good."

Su Mo stopped thinking about it, but had a dream at night.He dreamed that he turned into the bamboo he drew, and Gu Tingchen took the rice paper with the bamboo drawn on it, and then moved it to the candle flame.No matter how much he yelled, Gu Tingchen seemed to be unable to hear him.He didn't wake up from the dream until the burning pain spread all over his body. Thinking carefully about the dream, he felt palpitations. The burning pain was so realistic that he almost thought it was on fire.

After several twists and turns, I finally found the address given by Gu Tingchen, and it was half dark after I put down my bags.Su Mo saw the farm couple and their only eight-year-old son.There are two houses in the small house, although they are wooden houses, they are spacious and comfortable.

The farmer's family name is Xu, and the child's name is Jinbo.The owner of the Xu family hoped that his son would have enough food and clothing when he grows up, so he asked a writer in the town to give him this name.It turned out that Gu Tingchen and his party just arrived in the town yesterday, and the owner of the Xu family happened to be working there.On weekdays, they also supply the government with rice, noodles, vegetables, poultry, and meat. Now I just talked about looking for a scholar to teach the children at home. I don’t want to get a job in the exam in the future. I just need to learn some words and understand some principles.After hearing this, Gu Tingchen recommended Su Mo to him. When the master of the Xu family heard that this was the censor who had just come from the capital, he didn't know what official title the censor was. He only knew that he was an official. On the next day, Su Mo was identified without saying a word.There is no need to worry about food and accommodation.

At this moment, Su Mo was really embarrassed to be yelled at by the Xu family and Mrs. Su one by one. "Brother and sister-in-law, call me Su Mo."

"How can it be, sir is sir. Even though my husband and I don't know a few words, we still know the way to respect a teacher. Now sir, you are teaching the boy to be the teacher of the boy, so don't worry about this title." Xu is straightforward and hearty. His temperament will not make people uncomfortable.

"Okay. Then I'll bother you temporarily." Su Mo really didn't know how long it would be for the time being.

"You're welcome, sir. Jinbo, come to see you." Xu Zhi picked up the half-grown child from the corner.The child honestly called out to Mr., lowered his head and timidly did not dare to look at Su Mo.

"I'll teach you how to read and write from tomorrow on, okay?" Su Mo was relieved to see the child like this. If it was a child born with a bully temper, he would really have a headache.

Xu Jinbo raised his eyes and nodded, looking at Su Mo curiously and shyly.

Xu Zhi smiled awkwardly and said, "Jinbo is a little timid, sir, please don't take offense. He was originally taught in an elementary school in the town, but he is too weak to avoid being bullied, so he was left alone." at home."

"I think this child is well-behaved and tight, which is very good."

"Then please take care of me, sir."

……

When teaching Jinbo the next day, Su Mo was surprised to find that although the child was well-behaved but intelligent, he just missed the best learning opportunity.I have not forgotten what I learned in school, and I have written a lot of words on paper in a day.After Su Mo talked to Xu's couple, they collected some books from other places the next day.Some were read by Su Mo himself, and some were used by Jinbo.Su Mo wanted to give the money but was stared back by Xu's big eyes.

After a few days, Jinbo is no longer as shy as when they first met, and now she can take the initiative to ask Su Mo for advice.Su Mo had no news of Gu Tingchen, and Gu Tingchen didn't take the initiative to contact him.He was a little worried, so he had to ask Xu Zhi about the situation.

"Brother Xu, the Gu Ting who contacted you a few days ago...do you have any news from Mr. Gu?"

"Master Gu, I don't see you on weekdays. However, the price of vegetables that I enter the government has increased. I heard that Mr. Gu likes vegetarian food, so I shipped more vegetables there." If you inquire too much about the friendship along the way, you will inevitably become suspicious.

"Oh. If there is anything wrong with him, I, a commoner, can't help him. But brother Xu, please pay attention, Mr. Gu is very kind to me."

"That's easy to say."
