When Qiu Wuhen returned home, it happened to be the hottest time. In July, it was so hot that even the cicadas on the tree were too lazy to flap their wings and make a sound that made people want to kill them. Qiu Wuhen was at Su's house

Surrounded by a group of others, Qiu Wuhen entered the door. This time, Qiu Wuhen found that there was no shadow of Su Jinxiang in the crowd, and his aunt Luo Shi was standing not far away. Although it was a sunny summer day, she was still unable to see the shadow of Su Jinxiang in the crowd.

The woman who was with the woman could not feel the slightest bit of heat or vitality. It seemed that Mrs. Su had eaten the weight and wanted to put the disobedient girl in the village and not let her come back. However, Qiu Wuhen let Qiu Wuhen

Surprisingly, he saw Jin Xiyan in the crowd. He hadn't seen her for several months. This little girl seemed to have grown taller. She was a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. It happened to be that when she was growing taller, there was no one beside her.

There is no Gan family, probably because he did not come back from Zhuangzi.

Everyone gathered around Qiu Wuhen and talked for a while in the front hall. Seeing that he looked tired, Mrs. Su sent everyone away, saying that he wanted Qiu Wuhen to rest and that everyone would have a reunion dinner together in the evening.

At the reunion dinner, Qiu Wuhen could clearly see that Aunt Luo's mouth was pursed and her eyes were red.

After everyone had dispersed, Qiu Wuhen was covered with the smell of sweat. He also knew that his wife was a very clean person, so naturally she couldn't smell such a smell, so he asked Niu Guangyuan, who had been waiting outside the door, to wait on her to clean the room.

bath.

"Sir, you are back. I miss you so much."

Lying in the comfortable bathtub, Qiu Wuhen let out a long sigh, looked at Niu Guangyuan who was standing aside to help rub his back and said with a smile: "I was standing in the crowd just now. Didn't she go to Zhuangzi?"

When Niu Guangyuan heard this, his ears turned red. He grabbed the water ladle in the bucket nearby and pretended to add water. He didn't dare to look into Qiu Wuhen's eyes and hesitated: "Yesterday... I came back yesterday and gave it to Madam.

something."

Qiu Wuhen's heart moved and she couldn't help but smile and said: "I thought I was giving you something."

Niu Guangyuan immediately glanced at Qiu Wuhen and said, "Master, Miss Jin and Miss Three are not the same person."

Qiu Wuhen saw that Niu Guangyuan seemed a little angry and said, "What? Are you angry? I don't mean anything else by being a teacher. I just saw that the stitching of this coat on your body is very fine. It doesn't look like you bought it from a clothing store.

Thought it was the golden girl..."

After Niu Guangyuan listened, he quickly said, "No, Miss Jin didn't make it for me, Aunt Gan made it for me."

Qiu Wuhen thought to himself that even his aunt had been called. It seemed that in the past few months when he was away, the three girls in the family had stories.

Qiu Wuhen stopped joking with his little apprentice. After taking a bath, Niu Guangyuan brought over a set of clothes, with a hint of showing off in his expression: "Master, Miss Jin left it for you at this time. She said it was in the capital."

It's made of a very light material that's been in fashion recently. Madam said it's very cool. Please try it on."

When Qiu Wuhen put it on, he felt very breathable and cool. He couldn't help but ask, "Isn't this material cheap?"

Niu Guangyuan chuckled and said: "Then I don't know. Maybe it was given by Mrs. Liu, maybe it was given by the princess, and maybe it was given by Mrs. Hua. These people are all very rich people, and anyone can give it to them."

I can afford it.”

Qiu Wuhen glanced at Niu Guangyuan and said, "You mean the master you follow is very poor?"

Niu Guangyuan slandered, of course you are poor. You don’t even want money from others, how can you not be poor?

"No, no, my master is the best master in the world."

Qiu Wuhen snorted, but was not angry and walked out refreshed.

However, Qiu Wuhen did not have the opportunity to express his feelings to his wife, whom he had not seen for several months. After receiving the news, a group of students, Linghu Ding, Chun Can, and Fei Wutong brothers all came to Su's house to meet her.

Linghu Ding was the most excited. He kowtowed as soon as he saw me and said, "Teacher, you are back. I can't express my gratitude to you. I finally got to see you today."

At the end of the sentence, he was choked with sobs and couldn't go on. He just kowtowed. Qiu Wuhen was a little strange and asked Linghu Zhi. Linghu Zhi said, "What is your father doing?"

"He is very excited because he got 11th place in the examination and will soon take the palace examination."

Qiu Wuhen snorted and said, "It's not bad. I can take the 11th exam. Well, I'm very happy to be a teacher."

Linghu Ding kowtowed with tears in his eyes and said, "If it weren't for my mentor's teachings, I might still be a teacher in Yunduan County today! Every time I think about it, I feel grateful for my mentor's teachings and long to follow my mentor all my life."

Qiu Wuhen nodded and said: "Okay, then you can follow me, with the two of you in the cow water tank."

"Master, sir, my name is not Niu Shuitan, my name is Niu Guangyuan, I changed my name!" someone said angrily!

Everyone laughed.

I heard classmate Niu Guangyuan continue to say with a smile: "Yes, senior brother, I followed the master and the old lady wrote articles, and I felt that I made rapid progress. The old lady said that if I study for two or three more years, I can also take the scholar examination.

"

Of course Linghu Zhi knew what her father was thinking, and said to Qiu Wuhen: "Brother Qiu, my father wants you to give me some advice on how to take the exam? He said that every time he reads your essay, he gains a lot.

Model essays make his eight-part essays improve rapidly. Without your scope, he is nothing, so he is not ashamed to ask questions and asks you to be respectful rather than obey orders."

In the past, Linghu Ding rarely corrected his daughter when she used idioms indiscriminately, but she couldn't do that this time! If she angered the master, all the previous efforts would be wasted. He quickly glared hard and said to his daughter: "Don't talk nonsense, these two idioms are very useful."

Not good. I should be grateful and ask my mentor for further guidance."

Linghu Zhi did not buy her father's blame, and said: "Dad, I think you are old and confused. You taught me this idiom before, and I didn't use it wrong. If you care, you will be confused. You don't know the blessings when you are in them.

"

Linghu Ding was angry and funny. He was entangled with his daughter, so he simply ignored her. He just kowtowed to Qiu Wuhen and said, "Master, of course I am willing to follow my master for the rest of my life. I will do my best before I die."

Qiu Wuhen chuckled, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'm just teasing you, I think you're anxious. Since you are talented and can do so well in the exam, you must be in the top three for me when you take the exam, so that you can live up to being a teacher."

He takes the exam seriously. Otherwise, don’t take the exam and just stay with Master.”

As soon as I heard that I was going to take the top three exams, I felt a lot of pressure. But then I thought about it. Without pressure, there would be no motivation. With Master's relevant essays, if I work harder, I might not be able to get the top three. This time I will try myself.

I just wanted to express myself, but I didn't strictly follow the example provided by Master, so I went a little awry. If next time I strictly follow the examples in the example provided by Master, or even copy it directly, I must strictly follow Master's example.

Maybe we can really make a breakthrough.

The master is really a genius. He went to treat a disease during the epidemic. It was impossible for him to know the questions of the national examination in Beijing thousands of miles away. However, so many sample essays he gave basically revolved around the questions. It seemed that he had already expected the questions.

How could something happen? Linghu Ding had already begun to notice this. From the time he passed the exam to the 11th exam, he felt deeply about it in both exams.

However, he never imagined that Master knew the topic in advance, because that was impossible. He felt that Master's ability to answer questions was amazing. The most important thing was that although the questions he asked were not original questions, he could write about a lot of scope and from all angles.

Let’s explain it and open up his horizons. If such a master doesn’t flatter him well, how can he possibly get a generous teaching? So when he saw Qiu Wuhen, he kowtowed his head to the ground. Now the master asked him to take the exam

Sanjia gritted his teeth and immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said, "I will obey my teacher's teachings, and I will live up to my teacher's expectations even if my brain is smashed to pieces."

But Qiu Wuhen really missed his wife and wanted to be with her so much that he waved his hand and said, "Okay, you all go and do your work. I'm tired these days and I need to take a good rest."

Linghu Ding quickly agreed, not daring to say more, and left with his daughter and others. Qiu Wuhen said to him again: "Let's do this, I know you are anxious, the palace examination is about to start. Come over tomorrow morning

, I will give you a few sample essays, take them and understand them carefully."

In fact, what Linghu Ding wanted to hear most was this sentence. He was anxious. When he heard this, he was shaking with excitement. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed with a plop and said, "Disciple, thank you Master!"

They left happily. Qiu Wuhen got up and returned to the room. He saw Su Jinsong, Xuehua and Liniang sitting in front of the window. One was wearing a goose-yellow tulle, one was in a lake blue skirt, and the youngest

Xuehua was wearing a peach-pink gauze skirt. The three of them were all beautiful young women. Sitting there, they looked like a dazzling picture.

Qiu Wuhen coughed lightly and walked into the room. Liniang and Xuehua quickly stood up and saluted.

"What are you doing?" Qiu Wuhen walked to his wife and sat down and asked.

Liniang and Xuehua poured tea for Qiu Wuhen and then quietly left.

"Xiyan taught me a very complicated but beautiful embroidery method yesterday. I am learning it. Are you done?" Su Jinsong looked at her husband who had rested his head on her shoulder, looking like he was about to act coquettishly.

.

"How's things going with Meier?"

"Everything went very smoothly. The Dong family also came. The elders of both parties met. My mother and grandmother were also very satisfied. They got engaged that month. However, the wedding day is set for next spring because there are still preparations in Jeju.

.”

"Mei'er is going to Jeju?" Qiu Wuhen was a little surprised.

"Well, not only Mei'er is going, Aunt Li also begged the grace of her grandmother and mother to go with her. The Dong family is a sensible person, and Dong Zhe has no objections. Don't mention it, Dong Zhe is a really good kid.

Mother and Aunt Li both like it very much."
