Lu Xiaoshu said "hmm" twice, "That's good!" Although the meat on the wings is not much, it is the most delicious and delicious, they are all idiots. Only Mr. Wu would compete with him for wings.

After eating and drinking enough, they rested for a while, and the three of them exchanged gestures and gestures. Seeing that the time was almost up, Lu Qi and Lin Fang went back to school, and Lu Xiaoshu went home contentedly.

As she walked along, she couldn't help thinking: Brother, you really did a good job of keeping secrets. Looking at that familiar look, you might be hanging out with that kid Lin Fang at some point. She didn't expect to find out until today. Alas, his luck is really bad. If I had found out earlier, I would have persuaded him not to study, wouldn't he have been liberated long ago

After dinner, the whole family sat in the yard to enjoy the shade. Lu Qi and Lu Xiaoshu muttered to each other for a while. Finally, Lu Qi plucked up the courage to walk up to Miao Cuilan and Lu Zhong, and bravely said from his heart: "Father, mother, I don't want to go to school anymore."

"Oh——" Miao Cuilan nodded subconsciously, then froze suddenly, raised her head and asked, "What did you just say? Can you say it again?"

"I don't want to study anymore! Anyway, I can't study well!" Lu Qi said again.

"You son of a bitch, it's against you!" Miao Cuilan was so annoyed that she wanted to get up and beat him with a whip.

"Cuilan, don't worry! If you have something to ask, let's talk about it!" Lu Zhong hurriedly pulled her back, and Miao Chuhe and Tong Yu'er couldn't help but look over.

"Why don't you miss it? I think you have been reading well!" Miao Chuhe said.

"What's the matter?" Lu Qi said dejectedly, "Does my little uncle think that I can pass the exam? I'm afraid I can't even pass the exam as a scholar!"

Miao Cuilan looked towards Miao Chuhe with question marks in her eyes. Miao Chuhe hesitated immediately, he didn't want to deceive his sister, but he also didn't want to make her sad, so he said with a smile: "You work harder—"

"Anyway, there is a young uncle in the family who is a candidate. How can our family be so lucky to produce a talented candidate! Mother, please spare me!" Lu Qi said hastily.

"It's unreasonable! Where did you come up with such nonsense!" Miao Cuilan said angrily, "Who instigated you, tell me! Why have you been doing well all along, and suddenly such an idea popped up!"

When Lu Qi saw that his mother was coming to beat someone, he ran away in fright and hid behind Miao Chuhe, and said with a firm heart: "Mother, I thought so myself! I'm really not a student, why waste my money?" Time and your money!"

Lu Qi's words were tantamount to adding fuel to the flames, Miao Cuilan was so angry that she wanted to jump up, and said "bastard, bastard" in her mouth that she couldn't help but want to beat him up.

Miao Chuhe and Tong Yu'er couldn't help feeling angry and funny when they heard this, so they also tried to persuade Lu Qi not to talk nonsense to make his mother angry, and Miao Chuhe blurted out jokingly: "Where did you learn this , it doesn't sound like your tone, it sounds like Xiaoshu's!"

Lu Xiaoshu secretly complained: Little uncle, you are too wicked!

Sure enough, after Miao Chuhe mentioned it, Miao Cuilan stared at Lu Xiaoshu like a searchlight, and said sharply, "Xiaoshu!"

"Mother! Mother! It's not me!" Lu Xiaoshu yelled, threw himself into Miao Cuilan's arms and hugged her, and said, "Mother, how can I have such great skills! Brother, he can only decide whether he wants to study or not." Most clearly, and only he can decide, I—"

"Nonsense! What nonsense!" Miao Cuilan said angrily, "What can he decide? It's your mother who can decide! Hmph, what does he know now? He only knows how to play! When he grows up, he will know Our hard work as parents! Let me tell you, Lu Qi, you, give me a hard time! Hmph, why don’t you go back to the house and read a book obediently, what are you doing here? You want to be beaten ah!"

"Mom! I really don't want to study anymore, why do you have to force me to do so! I study hard, but it doesn't work. I don't want to learn that I can't even pass the exam for a scholar with a gray beard! Then What's the point in this life!" After Lu Qi finished speaking, he turned around and entered the room in a fit of anger.

Miao Cuilan was stunned, and only after a while did she come back to herself and said tremblingly, "This bastard! This bastard!"

"Sister, Aqi is still young, so don't take your child's angry words to heart." Tong Yu'er hastily persuaded softly, and Miao Chuhe also comforted her a few words.

The two of them are separated by one floor, so it is inconvenient to say something.

Lu Zhong sighed, "Cuilan, what Aqi said actually makes sense. Since he doesn't have the heart, I think—"

"Shut up! Is it so difficult for my son to win me over and put some glory on my face?" Miao Cuilan gave him an angry look.

Lu Zhong sighed: "Cuilan, in fact, the children in our family are very obedient and sensible, which is already the envy of others! Think about it, how much trouble we have saved! The whole family lives happily and happily. Not a blessing."

Miao Cuilan didn't bother to answer this, she just got up and walked into the house.

Who knew that Lu Qi was determined, and early the next morning, he got up and drove the family's cow and donkey up the mountain to graze. When Miao Cuilan found out, she was so angry that she couldn't help but get scolded again when Lu Qi came back. When everyone saw this, they hurriedly tried to persuade them, they persuaded their mothers and their sons, and they made a fuss.

The two wrestled for several days, Miao Cuilan didn't know how Lu Zhong persuaded her, Mr. Wu also said something, Miao Cuilan finally gave in. That night, I called Lu Qi over, and asked him seriously: "Have you thought about it clearly, you really don't want to go to school anymore? You have to know, how many people want to study but don't have this opportunity!"

Lu Qi was secretly happy in his heart, but he didn't dare to show any signs on his face, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Mother, if you don't study, you can be promising, and you can be filial to your parents!"

Hearing these words, Miao Cuilan suddenly felt her nose ache for some reason, she nodded and sighed, "Forget it, your mother and I don't have the energy to fight with you! Since you don't want to read it anymore, then don't read it anymore." Let's go! Tomorrow, go over and kowtow to Mr. Wu and say goodbye, at least he taught you a lesson!"

Lu Qi quickly agreed, and finally felt completely relieved.

Who knows, Miao Cuilan glanced at Lu Xiaoshu and Xiaoxue with her eyes, and said: "Tomorrow, you two sisters will go with your brother, and your mother will go too. You two sisters will worship Mr. Wu as your teacher tomorrow, and you will follow Mr. Wu." Mr. Wu, let's learn!"

"ah!"

"What!"

Not only Xiaoxue and Lu Xiaoshu, but Lu Zhong, Miao Chuhe and others were also stunned.

"Ah, what?" Miao Cuilan glared at her angrily and said, "What? The son is disobedient, and the daughter is disobedient?" As she spoke, she glanced at Lu Qi, who bowed her head and shrank back slightly. Shrunk, not daring to look at her.

"But, mother," Lu Xiaoshu reluctantly smiled and said, "But we are a daughter's family. The imperial court didn't offer women's imperial examinations, and they couldn't give you a female number one. Why do you want us to study?" She thought to herself. Can't help crying secretly, okay, I met a mother with epoch-making ideas, and let me go to school to study, isn't this cheating!

Xiaoxue also looked at it very puzzled.

Miao Cuilan said: "Who said that you have to go to school after you come back from the exam? A girl can read some words, and it's good to be a talented girl! I've made a decision, so it's decided, you two tonight Go to bed early and cheer me up tomorrow! Xiaoshu, especially you, don’t make trouble for me, Xiaoxue, take care of my second sister! Go over there honestly tomorrow morning!”

"Mmm, mother!" Xiaoxue nodded and obediently agreed. In her opinion, those who can read and write are all great people, such as Mr. Wu, such as my little uncle, who will also learn to read and write from tomorrow, she is still very happy in her heart, and she is a little proud.

What else could Lu Xiaoshu say? He had no choice but to agree in a muffled voice. I can't help but lament in my heart, it's really retribution, who said it's okay to tease my brother? Now it's all right, my brother is free, and the shackles are turned around her own neck! Mother's idea is really - ahead of time!

The next day, four mothers, daughters, and children came to Mr. Wu's place. Mr. Wu didn't say anything after hearing this, but nodded to Miao Cuilan and said, "Ah Qi is very smart, but his mind is not on books, forcing him Studying is not necessarily a good thing! I think it is also good!"

Lu Xiaoshu immediately heard the infinite hope from these words, and couldn't help but looked at Mr. Wu eagerly, as if saying: "I am too, I don't have any thoughts on this, forcing it is not a good thing!"

When Mr. Wu saw that she was staring at him with a pair of dark eyes, how could he fail to see what she meant? She couldn't help laughing secretly, but she continued to say to Miao Cuilan with a serious face: "Xiaoxue has a gentle and calm temperament, and learning some poems and songs can cultivate her sentiments. Xiaoshu's temperament should also be restrained and determined, so as to save future What a disaster!"

When Lu Xiaoshu heard these words, he felt aggrieved immediately, and said angrily, "Sir, you are so unreasonable. This is clearly treating them differently!"

Miao Cuilan sighed, nodded in agreement and said: "Mr. is right, so Xiaoxue and Xiaoshu I will ask Mr., even though it is my daughter's family, it is always good to know some words and understand some things!"

"Don't worry! I will arrange for the two sisters to study in another room alone, and not to mix with other students." Mr. Wu nodded, and then said seriously to Lu Qi: "Ah Qi, although you will not come here today , but do you remember all the principles that Mr. taught you earlier?"

Lu Qi didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Yes, disciples remember it! Disciples don't dare to forget the word filial piety. To be a person, you must be upright and aboveboard, and disciples will remember it too!"

"Just remember it! Mister has nothing else to teach you. Remember to do things in the future, don't let Mister down."

"Yes, sir!" Lu Qi knelt down and kowtowed three times. Mr. Wu raised his hand and got up, and said goodbye to his mother.
