After the young teacher finished his lecture and walked away without looking back, it was a long while before the classroom was filled with discussions. Although there were similar young students in Jiuzhang Hall and Banshan Hall who came to serve as substitute teachers, most of them just read from the book, that is, they were talking about things like "The Analects of Confucius" from various bookstores.
But today, this young teacher only spent half a class explaining several dialogues in the Analects in a simple and easy-to-understand way, and then he talked about Guanzi. Although most students in the intermediate class have never even heard of this book, and don't know who the so-called Guanzi is, this does not prevent them from sincerely admiring this peer.
At their age, they certainly dreamed of wearing brocade and silk and eating delicious food in the future, but their fathers, brothers and elders all taught them from their own actual experience that this was completely a foolish dream. With their background, if they could become shopkeepers and accountants in the future, that would be the best!
They felt that the two funding options Zhang Shou mentioned had opened a window for them. And the gap between the rich and the poor that the young teacher mentioned was something they had never thought about before.
The teacher even told them that it turns out that the poor are not stupid or unhardworking, but because the rich occupy too many resources and are unwilling to give up even a little bit, so some people just rise up when they can no longer bear it! It turns out that some people are not born to be in the clouds, and some are born to struggle in the mud.
The fourth prince never expected that this young eunuch, who was definitely from the Palace of Heavenly Purity, had no intention of flirting with him at all. He just left after class, as if he didn't know him! This time, the naughty boy couldn't stand it anymore.
Just as Zhang Shou said, the Fourth Prince is a very difficult person to serve. If you treat him like a son of a rich family, flatter him, and curry favor with him, he will think you are a person without integrity and have other desires, and will not bother to pay attention to you. But if you ignore him arrogantly, he will think you look down on him and don't take him seriously...
Only if you treat him as an ordinary person, just like Zhang Shou in the past, Xiao Huasheng and Xiao Cheng now, then he will feel comfortable and happy and treat you as his own.
Therefore, Zhang Shou deliberately misled Luo Sanhe. Luo Sanhe was not happy in the first place because he suspected that he was recommended by Chu Kuan. He was only moved by the attitude of the Crown Prince in the East Palace, so he took the task of assisting the Fourth Prince. It was inevitable that he misunderstood Zhang Shou's coldness as arrogance.
This is taking things even further.
So, the Fourth Prince, whose mentality exploded, left the classroom angrily as soon as he realized what was happening. Seeing this, Peanut didn't have time to tell Xiao Cheng and immediately ran after him. Fortunately, he was fast and soon saw the naughty kid standing outside a window of a school hall.
He knew that this was the place where Zhang Shou had just moved in a few days ago, and where he lived, prepared lessons, and graded homework in the public school. Although grading homework was often done by outstanding students such as Lu Sanlang and Ji Jiu, and if these people were studying in the Eastern Palace, other students would take turns to take their place. However, Zhang Shou did not have exclusive use of this school hall.
