"Tap." The tea bowl was lightly placed on the table, and the tea in the bowl swayed slightly, disrupting the reflection in the tea.
"You came to Qingzhou suddenly, why didn't you tell me?" Xun said while sitting cross-legged in the banquet with his clothes up.
"If you didn't half-talk." The young man sitting across the table picked up the tea bowl and put it to his mouth, and glanced at Xun: "Why did I come here all the way?"
"Hehe." Xun smiled and shook his head.
"I was wrong about this matter, Feng Xiao, you are magnanimous, don't bother with me anymore. However, even without my letter, you will come to Qingzhou sooner or later."
The young man in front of him with pale face and coughing once or twice is named Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao, who was his old friend when he was in Yingchuan. So he is familiar with the temperament of his old friend, even without him, Guo Jia will come to Qingzhou for a year at most.
"I'm really magnanimous." Guo Jia took a sip of tea. He had just drank a lot of wine, and a sip of herbal tea was just enough to relieve the alcohol. He did not deny what Xun said, but glanced at his mouth and continued to ask.
"Since I'm here, should you tell me, what exactly are you talking about in your letter?"
"Yeah." Xun turned around and picked up a few papers on the desk beside him: "This is not urgent, I still have some official business to do, and I will take you to see it when I finish. "
He originally planned to do these things later, but since Guo Jia came, he finished it earlier, so that he could take Guo Jia to the school in the afternoon.
"Then I'll wait for you." Guo Jia nodded lightly.
He is not a person who can't bear his temper. He hasn't got the answers to those things for more than a year, so it's not bad to wait for this little time.
He sat quietly drinking tea, and looked out the window idly. Xun's house was not far from the market, and he could vaguely hear the noise of the market outside.
The two of them didn't speak, but the room was clean, and the sound of Xun's reviewing official documents could even be heard.
"Wen Ruo." Guo Jia said suddenly.
"Huh?" Xun looked down at the official document and responded.
"You have been in Qingzhou for more than two years, what do you think of this place?"
Xun turned his eyes to look at him, then turned his eyes back to the table and smiled.
"You should have seen some when you came here. What you see is what it looks like."
After finishing speaking, he paused for a moment, and then said: "At that time, I will go with you to see other places in the city."
Ah. Guo Jia raised the tea bowl with a smile, what he saw was a good look, no wonder Xun was willing to stay here.
When Gu Nan arrived home, Lingqi was walking through the courtyard with a book in her hand, as if she was about to go to the study.
Seeing Gu Nan, he stopped in his tracks: "Master is back."
"Yes." Lifting the fish in his hand, Gu Nan smiled and said, "How about we eat fish tonight?"
Lingqi smiled lightly: "Master likes it."
She knew that the master was probably greedy again.
"Tick tock, tick tock." A few drops of water fell from the thin dark clouds in the sky, hitting the eaves with a muffled sound.
Gu Nan put the fish in the kitchen, washed his hands and walked out.
A drop of rain hit the tip of her nose, and there was a burst of coldness.
Only then did she remember that the clothes were still hanging in the backyard and confiscated, and hurriedly walked across the hall, looking at Lingqi and Diao Xiuer who were sitting in the yard embroidering something.
"Qi'er, Xiu'er, it's raining, please help me put away the clothes in the backyard."
Seeing Gu Nan in a hurry, both of them smiled and followed.
"Da da da." It rained heavily, and the fine raindrops hit the leaves in the yard, soaking the yard and the eaves all over.
Gu Nan put the last piece of clothes on the hall, heaved a sigh of relief, and finally put the clothes back before the heavy rain.
Lingqi and Diao Xiuer sat on the side, sorting and piled clothes into a pile.
Gu Nan also picked up one casually. The clothes were small and the fabric was sparse. At first glance, she thought they were children's clothes. She put them on the tip of her nose and smelled them, and there was a faint fragrance.
There are no children at home, Gu Nan spread out his clothes in surprise, his face paused. Only then did she realize that it was a bellyband with a white flower embroidered on it.
Raising their eyes, both Lingqi and Diao Xiuer looked at her with blushing faces.
They all saw that Gu Nan put the apron in front of her nose and smelled it just now.
"Ahem." Coughing awkwardly, Gu Nan slowly handed the bellyband to Diao Xiu'er.
"Xiu'er, is this yours?"
Diao Xiu'er shrank her neck, and shook her head with blushing cheeks: "No."
"Master, master."
Lingqi on the side said aloud, and turned her head to look, only to find that her face was already red to the base of her neck, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito.
"this is mine."
"This, this way." Gu Nan scratched the back of her head and handed the bellyband to Lingqi.
In order to alleviate the awkward atmosphere, he said with a sneer: "It's still, it's quite fragrant."
"Puff." Diao Xiu'er couldn't hold back, she covered her mouth and let out a laugh.
What a silly sir.
"Thank you." Lingqi's face was so red that she was about to bleed, she took the bellyband and hid it in her arms.
Outside the school, classes were still being held in the school, and a group of children sat in the wooden houses and listened to the teacher's lecture.
A few children didn't pay attention, and sat by the window looking out, not sure if they were watching the birds flying by in the rain or the bugs lying on the window.
There are two people standing under a tree outside the school, holding two umbrellas.
The rain made a crackling sound as it hit the umbrella surface, water droplets slipped from the edge of the umbrella, and the people under the umbrella quietly looked at the school with their hands behind their backs.
Xun brought him here after finishing his business. When he first came, he was really in a trance.
This is a very big school, where all the children in the city can come to learn, and the common people can also attend.
And the teacher hardly rests in the morning, lectures to the children who come in batches, and prepares lessons by himself during recess. The content on their website is exactly what Xun Tong said. After understanding for a while, he certainly understands that those things are of great benefit.
And I heard that those are still the basics, and they are used to learn.
There are no schools, but there are not many teachers who can teach, and even fewer teachers who can and are willing to teach.
He was born in a poor family, so he naturally knew the hardships of studying. If he had a school like this at that time, why would he seek it everywhere.
The gong in front of the school door rang, and after the class was over, the children in the class quarreled in a noisy group, some squeezed to the window to watch the rain, some sat at the table writing books by themselves, and some gathered together in twos and threes to chat with.
In the distance, Guo Jia held an umbrella and smiled unconsciously as he watched the children.
"How about I show you around?" Xun asked standing beside him.
"Alright, look around."
