Chapter 52: Encounter at the Temple Fair

Zhou Xuezheng looked at Lin Wenxuan with even greater satisfaction. He didn't expect that there was such a talented teacher in the small town below. What's more rare is that his mind works extremely quickly!

He had just mentioned the problem, but he didn't expect Lin Wenjian to give him a list of specific measures that could be implemented one by one.

This is such a relief!

It seems that we need to pay more attention to this kind of talent in the future. Maybe it can save him a lot of worry in his educational career!

The exchange meeting continued, and the teachers expressed their opinions in high spirits, discussing the direction and path of the teaching profession. For a time, the atmosphere in the venue was extremely warm.

The masters came to the stage one after another to share their views and experiences on teaching. Lin Wenjian listened, sometimes nodding in approval, sometimes frowning in deep thought. He noticed that although the views of these masters were different, they all followed the Confucian concept of "investigating things to acquire knowledge, being sincere and upright in mind".

The exchange meeting lasted for a whole day in a warm atmosphere. It was not until nightfall that the exchange meeting finally came to an end.

Lin Wenjian said goodbye to everyone and left Wenchang Pavilion with ease.

The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on the bluestone streets, adding a sense of tranquility and mystery to the county town at night. Lin Wenjian walked alone on the way back to the inn, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

For him, today's academic exchange meeting is not only a collision of knowledge and exchange of ideas, but also a baptism of the soul.

He heard many new viewpoints and unique insights, and also saw the gap and shortcomings between himself and others. But he was not discouraged. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. As long as he is not proud and complacent, he will always be able to learn from others!

At the same time, his expectations for the teacher-student exchanges in the next two days are extremely high!

He has gained so much today alone, and he is even more looking forward to tomorrow’s teaching exchange and the day after tomorrow’s classroom simulation.

Thinking about the various situations that could be encountered to test those respected seniors, Lin Wenxuan couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.

Haha, he will never admit his bad taste!

He just wanted to see how his predecessors dealt with these situations!

Tsk, just think about it, Confucius actually had three thousand disciples to teach, how incredible!

Back at the inn, Lin Wenjian was still immersed in the ocean of teaching. He chatted with his children who came with him for a few words, and then he couldn't wait to take out paper and pen and ink to organize his thoughts and feelings at the exchange meeting.

"It seems like Dad has gained a lot today! He looks like he still wants more!"

Lin Yucheng sighed and continued the previous topic, "Little sister, where do you want to go tomorrow? Let's take advantage of the fact that Dad is busy attending the Teachers' Meeting these days and have no time to take care of him. We should hurry up and have some fun, otherwise Dad will be too busy and we will be too busy again!"

"Well, how about we go to Lingyun Temple outside the city? I heard there will be a temple fair there tomorrow, let's go and join in the fun!"

"Okay, it's up to you!"

The two siblings discussed their schedule and went to sleep. Lin Wenjian also sorted out his thoughts and ideas for tomorrow's discussion. He gradually fell asleep in the afterglow of the Teachers' Exchange Conference.

In his dream, he discussed the teaching with ancient sages, "A teacher's purpose is to impart knowledge and resolve doubts!" ​​"There is no fixed method for teaching, but the key is to get the method." "If a person is upright, he will act without being told; if a person is not upright, he will not obey despite being told."

On the second day, at dawn, Lin Yuxi and Lin Yucheng got up early, washed up and went out. Lin Wenzhang went to Wenchang Pavilion to continue participating in the teacher exchange meeting.

"Brother, it's so lively here!" Lin Yuxi rarely came out for some fresh air, and looked around excitedly.

The temple fair was crowded with people and filled with fragrance. They walked and watched, tasted various snacks, and participated in some interesting games.

"Brother, look at that sugar man, it's so lifelike!" Lin Yuxi pulled Lin Yucheng's sleeve and pointed at an old man who was making a sugar man.

Lin Yucheng smiled and nodded, and was about to respond to his sister when a sudden noise caught his attention. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of people surrounding a scoundrel-looking man who was making advances towards a young girl, his words full of insults and threats.

Lin Yucheng frowned and walked over there. Seeing this, Lin Yuxi hurriedly followed. The rogue man grabbed the girl's arm with one hand and tried to touch her face with the other hand. He was cursing and saying,

"Sister Yu, why are you hiding? Didn't Daddy say he would marry you to me? We are a family of close relatives. There is no closer relationship in the world than ours. Your wealth will not be lost to outsiders! Isn't this good?"

"Let me go. He's your father, not mine. My brother won't agree! Give up on that idea!"

"If you don't accept my toast, then I'll punish you. It seems like you won't behave unless I give you some tough treatment!" The man moved closer to them and said viciously in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "I wanted to save it for our wedding night, but since you don't cherish it, I'll exercise my rights as a husband first!"

The girl turned pale with fright and struggled even more violently.

"Let me go! Let me go! My brother won't let you go..."

Although Lin Yucheng didn't hear what the two said, he could tell from the scene that a scoundrel bully was bullying a vulnerable girl. A strong sense of justice surged in his heart. He forcibly separated the crowd, walked up to the scoundrel man, and said in a deep voice: "Let her go."

The rogue man didn't expect anyone to step forward. He was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Haha, where did you come from, kid? Do you know what our relationship is? You want to be a hero and save the beauty? What do you care?"

"It doesn't matter! We have nothing to do with each other!"

Lin Yucheng remained expressionless, continued to stare at the rogue man, and repeated again: "Let her go."

The rogue man was intimidated by Lin Yucheng's momentum and hesitated for a moment, but still refused to let go. Seeing this, Lin Yucheng said no more and grabbed the rogue man's wrist and twisted it hard. The rogue man screamed in pain and let go.

"What the hell..."

Lin Yucheng said that he liked his tough talk and punched him a few more times.

"Just wait for me..."

The girl was saved, and she looked at Lin Yucheng gratefully, tears flashing in her eyes. Lin Yucheng smiled at her and turned back to Lin Yuxi.

"Brother, you're awesome!" Lin Yuxi looked at Lin Yucheng, then looked at the girl who had been looking at Lin Yucheng, and said with a double meaning!

Lin Yucheng shook his head in amusement, "Alright, stop being naughty, aren't you going to draw lots? Let's go!"

Lin Yucheng replied to the girl verbally, but he still looked back for some reason. Although he came to his senses quickly, something deep in his heart seemed to be touched and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
