Chapter 102: Xingchen Academy
When we came back earlier, we were not in the same car, so I didn’t have time to ask.
Song Yun looked at Shen Xia's concerned eyes and said, "I went to find the dean of Xingchen, but he said he would not accept those who have not yet been initiated."
"What does enlightenment teach?" Shen Xia wondered.
"Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, Thousand Character Classic." Song Yun listed them one by one.
Shen Xia looked at Xiaotian and Xiaowu.
Xiao Tian said: "I know the Three Character Classic, Thousand Character Classic and Hundred Family Surnames."
Xiao Wu was surprised: "Who taught you, Fourth Brother? Didn't I teach you the Three Character Classic?"
"My grandfather, I have been learning since I was a child, but I just practiced writing on the ground." Xiaotian replied.
Xiaowu looked at her sister and said, "Well, I only know the Three Character Classic, so I can't be with Xiaotian?"
Song Yun continued, "It's okay. I'm already halfway through this semester, so I can't go to school anymore. If I have to go, it will be after August. There are still four months left to study. It's still in time for you to study harder."
"Even if you learn it, you still have to take an exam before you can enter the academy. So you have to be extra serious."
When Shen Xia heard this, it seemed that this college was indeed one of the best colleges in the county.
Xiao Wu said confidently: "That's no problem."
Shen Xia looked at Song Yun: "What about you!"
"I may have to go to the academy to attend classes during this period because I want to take part in the provincial examination in August." Song Yun looked at Shen Xia and said.
Shen Xia nodded: "Okay, but will it affect you taking the exam right after waking up?"
Song Yun looked at Shen Xia who was worried about him and said, "It's okay."
"Well, it doesn't matter whether you pass the exam or not. Just treat it as a test run. There's a long way to go." Shen Xia comforted.
I'm afraid he's under too much pressure, just like back then.
When I was taking the college entrance examination, a classmate in my class jumped off a building because of too much pressure. This incident caused a sensation on the entire campus.
"Well, I will teach Xiaotian, Xiaowu and the others during this period of time. Please supervise them and learn." Song Yun looked at Shen Xia.
Shen Xia had also changed a lot. When she woke up, she was still a little thin.
Now everyone in the family has gained weight visibly, but of course I am still the thinnest one.
"Did you two hear that? You two should read more books recently. Your fourth brother teaches you to study hard." Shen Xia instructed the two.
"No problem." Xiaotian said with a smile.
"No problem." Xiao Wu also replied with a smile.
Each of them was holding a dog in their arms.
"Then when do you have time to go to the academy?" Shen Xia thought about asking her mother to prepare clothes. Will there be enough time?
"It's about half a month away. Once the foundation of the house is built, we can go there. It won't be a problem with my eldest and second brothers watching over it, and you're here too," Song Yun explained.
Half a month is enough.
"I will come back every month in the future." Song Yun looked at Shen Xia.
"Okay." After saying that, he turned and went to the kitchen.
Watching my mother and third brother working in the kitchen.
Song Jin looked at the familiar figure and said happily: "Xia Xia is here."
Shen Xia smiled and said, "Can you see me clearly, Third Brother?"
Song Jin shook his head: "The face is still a little blurry, but I know it's you by looking at your figure."
"Oh! Third brother, my figure has come into your sight." Shen Xia joked.
As soon as these words were spoken, the weather became hotter than usual.
This made Song Jin's face even redder.
Shen Xia looked at this.
Mother Song looked at Shen Xia and smiled, "You only know how to tease your third brother. Your third brother is thin-skinned."
Shen Xia touched her head awkwardly.
People of this era are too pure!
It seems that we can't take jokes casually.
I can't be like those good friends I had in my previous life. They all studied medicine, talked a lot of nonsense, and would talk about any interesting topics.
Then he said, "Mom, I bought the ox cart today."
"Really?" Song's mother was surprised.
"Yes, how about we go out and take a look?" Shen Xia suggested.
Watch the malt water go into the pot.
Mother Song nodded.
"Where is the third brother?" Shen Xia asked Song Jin.
"I want to watch the fire, you guys go ahead! I'll watch the same thing later."
Shen Xia came in and pulled him: "Come on, let's go out and watch together. I'll ask Fourth Brother to come in and light the fire."
"Ah! How can that be possible! Fourth brother is a scholar."
"What's wrong with being a scholar? As long as you are a member of this family, all the housework belongs to everyone." Shen Xia looked at Song Yun beside him as soon as he finished speaking.
"Fourth brother, you are right!"
Song Yun glanced at Shen Xia, then said to his third brother, "Go! I'll light the fire."
"Look! Let's go! Doing some effective work every day can relax your muscles and bones, which is good for your health." Shen Xia said to Song Yun while holding Song Jin's hand.
Song Yun smiled and shook his head slightly, believing your lies.
Song Jin looked at Shen Xia holding his hand, and the smile on his lips almost reached the back of his head.
At this time, Song Jiang was modifying the gate of the courtyard and removing some of the wooden fences.
Seeing mother and Song Jin coming out, he said, "The ox cart is at the door, go out and take a look!"
"it is good"
Mother Song walked out of the yard, looked at the sturdy cow, and said with a smile: "Xia Xia, this is what you chose."
Shen Xia laughed and said, "How could I choose this? Uncle Yang helped us choose it."
"Oh, then I really have to thank him." Song's mother also felt very grateful to him.
After all, the most feared thing in this era is to buy a sick cow. This ox cart is a big item. If you don’t buy the right one, you will be in big trouble.
He was happy for a while when looking at Song's mother, and then stopped.
There's a bit of sadness on his face.
Shen Xia was curious: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"No, I just thought that now that conditions are better, I want to go back to my mother's home. I haven't been back since his father passed away. In the past few years, my eldest brother and second brother have occasionally come to see me when they have time. But my eldest brother hasn't come for a year." Song's mother was thinking about the situation at her mother's home.
In fact, if raising silkworms is profitable, I would like my parents to do the same.
I'm just too embarrassed to speak up.
I’m afraid that Xia Xia Jue will support her parents’ family herself.
She is only concerned about the Song family, how can she have the nerve to think about her parents' home!
But as my conditions are getting better and better, my elder and second brothers haven’t come to see me for a year, and I don’t know how they are doing.
It would be a lie to say that I'm not worried at all.
I couldn’t take care of it myself before, there was nothing I could do.
Now that I’m living a good life, I’m thinking about visiting my mother’s home.
Shen Xia listened to what Song's mother said: "What's this?"
"I think..." Shen Xia thought for a moment. He had also heard that it was all thanks to his uncle and his family that his mother and his family were not kicked out of the family when the family was divided.
Now that conditions are better, it is normal to want to go back to my parents' home! I still visit my space from time to time to see my parents.
Shen Xia thought for a long time and said, "How about this! Mom, we must finish boiling the malt today and tomorrow and send it to you the day after tomorrow morning. It's a good time to buy some things in town and then go to my grandparents' house. What do you think?"
When Song's mother heard Shen Xia's arrangement, her eyes were slightly red: "Xia Xia, do you think that your mother is supporting your mother's family?"
"You don't even care about your mother's family."
When Shen Xia heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched. I have led people astray!
