Chapter 31
After hearing this, Chen Fu also trembled a little. He was not afraid of the old master who was shaking all over, but because he was afraid of his mother. If his mother knew about it, she might have to peel off a layer of his skin, so he asked Xie Ling Said: "Then what should I do? Do I really need to copy ten pages?"
Xie Ling said: "There is no need to copy anything else, just copy these few words."
As he spoke, he took a brush and circled some characters on the page. They were all the simplest characters among the hundreds of surnames, such as "Wang", "Bian" and "Fang". There were few signs. Chen Fu looked over and looked at it. Although he couldn't understand it, he knew it wasn't much, so he said, "It's only a few words? I'm afraid it won't be enough for one page?"
Xie Ling said casually: "There are ten words in total. You can just write one page per word, which is exactly ten pages."
Chen Fu was dumbfounded after hearing this and said in disbelief: "Is this okay?"
Xie Ling said: "Master only asked you to copy ten pages of the book, but he didn't say how many words to copy. If there are words, it's a book. Just copy it. If he asks you, you can refute him with this. He will be unable to do anything to you."
But this method also has drawbacks. If a student commits another crime next time, it may not be so easy to pass the test. I don¡¯t know how many words the master will ask for to be copied before counting, but this is not something Xie Ling needs to consider, and it is not him after all. Hey, it's not him who's causing trouble.
Chen Fu was also very excited after hearing this. He repeatedly praised Xie Ling as a talent. Without saying anything, he copied the ten words circled by Xie Ling one by one.
Xie Ling glanced at it for a few times, turned around and left. He had to go around to the north of the city to pick up Ah Jiu at Xuanhutang, and they would go home together.
He was fast on his little feet. When he arrived at the hospital, it was still dark. Xie Ling entered the front hall. Shi Hua was sitting with Lin Hanshui under the window, listening to old doctor Lin explaining medical books.
Xie Ling took a look and didn't bother him, but Lin Bubo saw him and said hello, "Is school over?"
Xie Ling nodded and said a few more words to him, then saw Shi Hua coming over and saying, "Let's go back."
Xie Ling stood up, and the two of them said goodbye to Lin Bubo and went out. The night gradually spread, and a fiery sunset rolled down the sky. They walked hand in hand to the end of the street in the twilight.
The next day, Xie Ling went to the school, and when he got behind the table, he saw a man coming over and said to him excitedly: "Hey, your method yesterday was really useful! Master, after I told him, half I can¡¯t even refute it with a single word, this matter was actually handed over, it¡¯s amazing!¡±
Xie Ling tilted her head back and saw clearly that it was Chen Fu. She thought to herself that it was easy to use, but it would only be used once. There was no doubt that a large number of people would suffer in the future.
But he didn¡¯t tell him clearly. Chen Fu patted a pile of things in front of him and said, "Here, thank you for helping me yesterday. I found these from home and gave them to you."
Xie Ling looked down and found that it was a stack of books. It was a thick stack, with three or four books in it. Some of them had lost their covers and looked very old. The pages were yellowed and written in small calligraphy. There are a lot of annotations, and it can be seen that the author of the book has spent a lot of effort.
He flipped through it casually, and found that there were many rare words in it, which Xie Ling didn't recognize. He looked at Chen Fu with some confusion and said, "Is this from your family?"
It¡¯s not that I¡¯m looking down on others, it¡¯s that Chen Fu, at first glance, doesn¡¯t come from a scholarly family, otherwise he wouldn¡¯t be able to hold a writing brush.
Chen Fu said carelessly: "It's not from my family. We once had a neighbor who was a poor student. He could only read books all day long, which ruined his brain. I heard that after more than ten years of taking the exam, he never failed once. All the money was gone, and in the end I had no choice but to lend the book on credit to buy cakes for our family. We ate them for two years. Later, I don¡¯t know where they went, and the books were not taken away. I asked my father to bring them to wrap the cakes. I see You seem to like reading, so you picked up two books. If you like them, I will get you some more tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, he added: "I am a person who knows how to repay kindness. If I say I will repay you, I will do it naturally."
Xie Ling looked through the books, her face improved a lot, and she thanked Chen Fu. Chen Fu waved his hand and generously said that it was just a trivial matter. After that, the relationship between the two got better.
The days passed by like this, and soon, in the blink of an eye, Xie Ling had been studying in the kindergarten for two years. Until the end of the second year, when the winter school ended, the old master stopped Xie Ling and said to him He said, "You don't have to come to the spring semester next year."
Xie Ling didn't say anything, and the master continued: "Although I am old, I still have vision. You are different from these students. You are a good material. If you want to get a good name in the future, you'd better go to a serious school for further study. , these things I teach are all superficial.Mao, most people send their children here just to learn a few characters so that they can find a job in the future. "
The master paused and then said: "Your family is not well off, I know this. There is a school in the south of the city, which was opened by some of my former classmates. I will write you a letter of recommendation. You go Pay a visit.¡±
As he spoke, he took out a letter and handed it over. He wanted to say something, but in the end he just waved his hand and said, "That's it. Remember what I said. Go back and talk to your adults. Go ahead."
Xie Ling felt grateful in her heart and bowed respectfully to her master. Then she left the school and walked towards the north of the city.
In two years, Xie Ling has turned eleven. Since last year, his stature has skyrocketed, and he has surpassed Shi Hua unconsciously. He also has the vague appearance of a young man, with long arms and legs. Take the wind with you as you walk.
It was the twelfth lunar month, and the sky darkened early. Xie Ling hurriedly walked along the street through the unmelted snow. After a while, people on the roadside lit lanterns, and the dim lights reflected on the snow, reflecting a A glimmer of light.
The cold wind made everyone's face stiff. A quarter of an hour later, Xie Ling arrived at the north of the city. From a distance, he saw the front door of a store wide open, with two lanterns on it and a plaque on the door. It looked a bit old. There are three upright and simple characters in the letter: Xuanhutang.
??
He glanced at the front hall. Lin Hanshui was following Lin Bubo for medical treatment. There were several patients waiting aside. Xie Ling's eyes were fixed on the medicine cabinet, where a girl wearing purple clothes was standing. Behind the counter, she was talking to old doctor Lin. She was holding a handful of medicinal materials in her hand and her eyebrows were lowered. Looking from the direction of Xie Ling, she could only see her crescent-like eyelashes and delicate The bridge of the nose was slightly pursed, as if holding a thin peach petal.
Shi Hua raised his eyes and saw Xie Ling standing there looking over. When Old Doctor Lin saw him, he said, "Xie Ling has come from school. It's getting late. You should go back today."
Shi Hua nodded, put down the medicinal materials, clapped his hands, said goodbye to Lin Hanshui and Lin Bubo, and left the hospital with Xie Ling.
The weather was very freezing. Shi Hua took a deep breath. The cold air flowed down her nose into her lungs, and her fatigue seemed to be relieved a lot.
The cold wind blew the hair in front of his forehead, and Shi Hua had to squint his eyes slightly, carefully looking at the snow under his feet, and asked: "The kindergarten is closed tomorrow, don't you have to go?"
Xie Ling held the lantern and responded. The snow crunched under their feet. Because he was afraid that Shi Hua would fall, Xie Ling put a weak hand behind her. Since they grew older, Shi Hua no longer She held his hand again and stopped touching his head, because Xie Ling was half a head taller than her and felt that she was too tired to reach out.
The two walked for a long time before arriving at the west side of the city. The shops on the street were not closed yet. There were lanterns lit in front of the doors, making the streets brightly lit. The wind blew from a distance, vaguely mixed with the sounds of opera and babbling. The tune, along with the sound of the orchestra, spread in the silent night.
After entering Qingshui Alley, Shi Hua said: "Don't go to the kindergarten next year."
Suddenly hearing this sentence, Xie Ling paused slightly and remained silent. He knew that Shi Hua had not finished what he said. Then, he heard Shi Hua say: "I have asked, there is another student in Su Yangcheng." Shu, you will go to school there next year.¡±
Xie Ling's footsteps stopped suddenly. Seeing him stop, Shi Hua asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Xie Ling then told what the Master had mentioned today, and said, "It costs a lot to go to school, right?"
The air was quiet for a moment, and then Shi Huacai said: "I have my own idea about this matter. Although we are poor, it is not a problem to send you to a private school. If there is really no money, I will not mention this matter."
She said, held her hands in her hands, breathed out, and urged: "Let's go back first. It's not too late to discuss this matter slowly. Looking at the sky, it seems like it's going to snow again."
The two returned to the courtyard. After dinner, Xie Ling went upstairs to read as usual, while Shi Hua fetched hot water and briefly washed herself. She let her hair down and lit a small oil lamp. She sat at the table in the room. I sat down and flicked the wick, and the light became much smaller, only enough to illuminate this side of the table.
She took out a booklet and a cloth bag from the drawer and began to plan carefully. The booklet recorded their necessary expenses for the next year, and the bag contained Shi Hua's savings. After calculating for a long time, she gathered the things. , and fell asleep with the lamp on.
When I woke up early the next morning, the yard was covered with light snow. As expected, it snowed lightly last night, but fortunately it was not very heavy. Shi Hua had to go to the hospital today, so she had an early meal. Xie Ling brought an umbrella and asked for Send her there.
Shi Hua said, ¡°I can do it myself.¡±
Xie Ling didn't say anything, just stood at the door with an umbrella. The two looked at each other. Shi Hua felt helpless and sighed, and she said, "Let's go."
The two locked the door and were about to leave the alley when they heard a creaking sound. The door of a house at the entrance of the alley opened. A man poked his head out and said to Shi Hua with a smile: "Hua'er, what a coincidence. Are you going to the hospital again?"
