Be a master through ancient times

The teaching model in Zhangzhou Prefecture is novel, and officials all over the province have heard of it.Some time ago, the training was vigorous and vigorous, and every government sent people to participate.

When these officials were in the provincial capital, some of them also went to the prefectural school to see their new teaching method. To be honest, they were not optimistic about it, because apart from some standard things, the teaching methods of the masters were almost the same as before. .

But when they arrived in Zhangzhou Prefecture today, after seeing the classrooms here and the performance of the students, they realized that the new teaching method is not a gimmick that puts old wine in new bottles, but what they have learned in the prefecture and the original model is still there. Running in.

They are all officials, and they naturally know that there must be an adaptation period for each new decree to be issued.The Zhangzhou government model they saw was the product of a difficult adaptation period.If other prefectures can achieve the same effect after running-in, then the future of Nanfu students will be promising.

This trip to Zhangzhou Mansion gave these officials a good impression of Lu Zhifu and Chu Ci.This is an official who does practical things, and is not at all different from those who falsify and create something out of nothing.

They stayed in Zhangzhou Mansion for two days, and set off for the next location early in the morning on the third day.Lu Zhifu and Chu Ci sent them to the pier together, and after watching their boat go away, Lu Zhifu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He glanced at Chu Ci, and said sourly: "In the past few days, the old man has been worried, and always feels powerless, but Master Chu still seems to be able to do it with ease, which is really enviable."

Chu Ci smiled slightly: "In fact, Chu is also very tired, and now he is just trying to cheer up."

Hearing what he said, prefect Lu felt better.The two chatted for a few words, then boarded the carriage and went back to the Yamen respectively.

A few days later, when Chu Ci was in the yamen, he always felt that someone was watching him, but when he looked up, he didn't find anyone suspicious.The recent behavior of his subordinates is also very sneaky. They always get together to chat about something. As soon as he thinks about it, they will disperse and walk away as if nothing happened.

All kinds of suspicious deeds made Chu Ci curious, and he decided that the person they were gossiping with must be himself.

Chu Ci wanted to ask someone to inquire about it, but it was a pity that Dahu was an upright person. Steward Xu went to the provincial capital again, planning to help Kou Jing take care of the mansion before returning.As for Chang Xiao, he is quite clever, but how could Chu Ci have the nerve to ask him to inquire about gossip in front of him?This is very inconsistent with his majestic teacher image.

Just when Chu Ci was in a hurry and decided to insinuate himself, Lu Jingshu came to help him out.

Since there were a few more boys in the family, Lu Jingshu didn't sit with them to attend classes. Chu Ci taught her alone every day, so she has a lot of free time recently.Lu Jingshu has lived here for so long, and has become acquainted with the daughters of some officials in the Education Department. Recently, she always goes out to play with them.

After playing for a long time, those girls would occasionally tell everyone what they heard at home, but Lu Jingshu just listened every time, and never told them what happened at home like they did.

On this day, they got together to play again, and suddenly a little girl asked: "Jingshu, I heard that your father beat his wife, did your mother kill her?"

When Lu Jingshu heard that someone arranged for her father, she immediately blushed with anger: "Zhang Yue, what nonsense are you talking about? I was adopted by my father, and my mother's death has nothing to do with him! Why do you say that my father is against my wife?"

Zhang Yue was taken aback by her, and looked at the other girl unconsciously: "I... I heard it from someone."

Lu Jingshu followed her gaze, and said angrily, "Who did you listen to? Zhu Xiuxiu? Haven't you heard the saying that rumors stop with the wise? Only fools tell right and wrong behind their backs!"

Zhang Yue blushed from being scolded by her, and lowered her head in shame: "I'm sorry Jingshu, it was Zhu Xiuxiu who asked me to ask you, I shouldn't listen to her."

But Zhu Xiuxiu was a little unconvinced: "I said it, but your father said it himself, and I was right!"

"You talk nonsense, my father wouldn't say it!" Lu Jingshu gave Zhu Xiuxiu a hard look, and ran home with her skirt in hand, just in time to catch Chu Ci about to go out, and immediately told Chu Ci about it aggrievedly.

After hearing her words, Chu Ci finally cleared up his confusion.He comforted Lu Jingshu for a while, and told her that justice is in the heart, no matter what others say, don't pay attention to it, let them go.Lu Jingshu nodded, but felt very sad in her heart, feeling that her father seemed to have acquiesced in the title of Ke wife.Thinking that outsiders would make up her father, she wished to gag them all.She was also said to be celibate before, and she was sad to hear that at the time, her father must be like this too, but because of his gentlemanly demeanor, he didn't have the same knowledge as them!

Chuci really couldn't laugh or cry at this meeting, it turned out that it was because of this incident that those people were so sneaky in the past few days.He didn't expect that the majestic magistrate would be so talkative. He said something casually that night, and it spread everywhere, and it made him suspicious for so long.

But it's okay to say it, but it solved one of his problems.As the most talented young man in Zhangzhou Prefecture, there are countless people who want to marry him. Usually, people often talk about him, but he prevaricates them all.Now that it has come out like this, it is estimated that in the future, it will be blacklisted by all the girls who are waiting to be married, just like in the capital, right?

However, the facts were not as he had imagined. Those officials who wanted to marry him died down after hearing the news, but the group of people with lower status were ready to move.

On this day, just as Chu Ci was about to go back to Houya, he saw Wang Ming coming over, saying that a wealthy businessman wanted to give Tixue Division some of the Four Treasures of Study as a reward for the students, but he said that he had to talk to Chu Tixue in person.

It is a great thing that local wealthy businessmen are willing to support education. Chu Ci did not doubt it at first, and called someone to Houya to explain to Zhang Hu, and then went to the banquet with Wang Ming.

Who knows that it is true to donate school supplies, and it is also true to want to give him someone.After drinking for three rounds, the rich businessman euphemistically proposed the idea of ​​giving his youngest daughter to Chu Ci as a concubine, and repeatedly said that his daughter was as beautiful as a fairy and could play the piano well, so Chu Ci accepted it. She will never be disappointed.

Chu Ci was dumbfounded immediately, and remained silent for a while.The wealthy businessman thought he was hesitating, and continued to persuade him. What he meant was that he was still a little timid and did not dare to recommend his daughter to Chu Ci. After all, even if he was a concubine, he would not Get married with ordinary merchants.But after hearing that Chu Ci had restrained his wife, he felt relieved.Because the rich family will definitely not marry Chu Ci, and the small family will definitely not rush to get married because of face, fearing that others will say that they will send their daughter to die, and they will not be embarrassed to let their daughter be a concubine.

But he was different, for the sake of Chu Ci's heir, he was willing to let his daughter be his concubine, just to be able to spread branches and leaves for the Chu family.

Chu Ci was almost moved by him, what kind of holy father, for the sake of the offspring of a stranger, would rush to send his daughter to be a concubine.It is also a talent to be able to talk about the pit daughter in such a high-sounding way!

"I don't know if Ling Ai knows about this?" Chu Ci asked with a smile, the smile didn't reach his eyes, and Wang Ming, who was familiar with his temperament, couldn't help but feel a chill all over his body, regretting that he was greedy for a little profit today and drenched in this muddy water.He hated the businessman for not being able to tell the truth. Can Mr. Chu speak casually about his wife's restraint?

The rich businessman gave a drunken smile: "I don't know what it's related to, the parents' order, the matchmaker's words, as long as Mr. Chu agrees, the villain will send her to your house tomorrow."

Wang Ming saw that this person was so frantic in order to climb the dragon and the phoenix, and saw that Chu Ci's face was dark, and he was about to have an attack, so he stood up immediately and scolded loudly: "Who are you to think of us as adults? How can you accept your daughter? You are unkind to your father, rushing to send your daughter to be a concubine, unrighteous in business, slandering the reputation of adults, unfaithful to the people, and using things to benefit the people to satisfy your own selfish desires. Such an unfaithful, unjust, and unkind person, Hurry up and get out!"

After being scolded like this, the wealthy businessman immediately woke up from the smell of alcohol, and left in a dejected manner with a red face.

Chu Ci's anger was completely dispelled by his magical pen, and he sat down and took a good look at Wang Ming, and said: "Master Wang is worthy of being out of the pen and ink room, and he is so majestic when he scolds others Linlin. Why don't you go back to the pen and ink room, so that I won't miss you as a great talent."

Wang Ming was so frightened by this that he immediately surrendered his hands and confessed: "My lord, I really didn't know about this before I stepped down from office. If I knew he had this idea, I wouldn't have brought him here to dirty your ears if I was killed. As for this, it is clearly Under the influence of the adults for a long time, the lower officials have acquired a bit of eloquence, which has nothing to do with the pen and ink room!"

Wang Ming was very afraid that Chu Ci would transfer him back from the accountant's office. There are too many things in the pen and ink room, how can it be compared to dealing with money?He knew that Chu Ci was using this incident to beat him, so he had to plead guilty in a low profile.

"Since Mr. Wang also lost his eyes for a while, I won't blame you. It's just that the promised donation has disappeared, which makes me feel a little regretful." Wang Ming usually does a good job, but he was confused for a while. Chu Ci didn't intend to embarrass him too much. When the water is clear, there will be no fish, but there are still lessons that should be learned.

Wang Ming naturally understood what Chu Ci meant, and he said, "The lower officials will definitely arrange this matter, so that the outstanding students in the government will get the rewards they deserve in the next monthly exam."

"Then Lord Lao Wang will worry about it. It's not early today. I have something to do and I'll leave first." The goal was achieved, and Chu Ci didn't want to stay here anymore, so he got up and left.

After Wang Ming sent him out, he let out a sigh of relief.Today is really a waste of rice, and the benefits I got have to be posted, I am afraid I will have to spend some blood to make up for the gap.The next time anyone asks him to do this kind of thing again, he will definitely spit on that person.He also secretly scolded himself for being confused by lard, what kind of person Chu Master is, if you want to deceive him, you should save yourself!

What happened tonight was quickly spread, and those who were about to make a move did not dare to act rashly again.As for the matter of Chu Ci's restraining his wife, it was confirmed.

People who want to work hard on Chu Ci feel a little sad. This Master Chu is neither greedy nor lustful. What can impress him?They don't think there is anyone in the world who can't be moved, it's just that you haven't scratched his itch.

Chu Ci did have some itches, but they were all scratched just right by one person, so he became the only one who could impress him.
