The students from the state school were very happy and laughed heartily. Even the big yellow dog, with a look of disdain on its face, rarely agreed with Cheng Ting.
The students of Tunan Academy were blushing. If Cheng Ting had not been the son of the magistrate, they would have worked together to sew Cheng Ting's broken mouth shut with their fists.
However, Cheng Ting has not finished speaking: "Each of you has the talent to be number one. When digging locust eggs, you don't forget to recite poems and write poems. Please read it out quickly so that we can also appreciate it. Everyone, go get a pen and paper and write it down, so that you will be remembered forever. Let Jiedushi’s money not be wasted!”
The students from the Prefecture School immediately sneered, someone really went to get pen and paper - Mo Qianlan was not here to compose poems for five hundred essays a day.
Wang Jinghua retorted: "We write poems as part of our homework. Unlike you, Brother Cheng, who is uneducated and has no skills. After digging for a long time, the insect eggs will become so sour. Tomorrow we will dig faster and more than you."
"The toad spirit is still out of breath," Cheng Ting sarcastically turned to greet his classmates, "We won't dig tomorrow. Wang Jing is enough for him alone. He squatted on the road, opened his mouth wide, and locusts from a hundred miles away hit him. It went into his mouth."
The classmates laughed heartily again.
Wang Jinghua was so angry that he and the students of Tunan Academy felt shameless in front of others. Some people immediately decided to ignore Cheng Ting and go to eat first.
This mouth is really, damn abominable!
"Jing Hu," Cheng Ting called Wang Jinghua affectionately, "remember to open your mouth wider tomorrow morning."
Before he finished speaking, Wang Jinghua stepped forward and raised his hand to push Cheng Ting to the ground and tear his mouth open.
Wu Jin, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up, stretched out his hand, and took Wang Jinghua's slap.
Because Wang Jinghua had been beaten by him before, he was already trembling with fright when he saw him strike suddenly. He then grabbed his wrist and shook it again.
His fist softened, but his mouth remained firm: "Wu Jin, what do you want to do? Everyone is watching! You still want to hit me! Even if you really dare to hit me, I'm not afraid of you!"
All the students who were sitting in the small school yard to enjoy the coolness fell silent. The students from the state school secretly cheered and geared up, ready to help at any time. The students from Tunan Academy retreated silently, preparing to find the leader of the team.
Wu Jin did not take action, but first pressed down his raised hand, then moved his arms neatly to both sides of his thighs, and said kindly: "Are you really going to dig up insect eggs tomorrow?"
Wang Jinghua stared at him warily and stepped back: "You don't have to worry about it, we will definitely be ahead of you."
Wu Jin said calmly: "Who has never made mistakes? There is no greater good than making mistakes. I will ask you to get up early tomorrow morning and let's go together."
After that, he turned around, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and sent them into the kitchen to be washed. Seeing this, the students from the state school also got up and went in to put the dishes and chopsticks away.
Wang Jinghua stood there stunned for a long time. The intimidation brought by Wu Jin gradually faded away, and he became cunning again. He turned to look at Sun Jing: "Does he mean that we wrote the poem wrong?"
Sun Jing blew out two bursts of anger from his nose: "Even if we are wrong, who does he think he is and how dare he judge us."
Wang Jinghua sneered and said: "They say that Wu Jin is an upright person, kind and gentle, but I don't think so. Cheng Ting's words are extremely unpleasant and he provokes disputes, but he doesn't say a word. I only fight back a few times, but he is just like a monkey." I jumped out anxiously, my mind and eyes were on my arm, where is it?"
He turned to look at his classmates: "Really?"
The students of Tunan Academy are from wealthy families and have always been the proud ones of heaven. Cheng Ting's face turned red with embarrassment because of his constant sarcasm. Cheng Ting is the son of the prefect, so he can only secretly hate it but cannot express it openly. Their thoughts were all focused on Wu Jin, and they all nodded in agreement.
"Why quit wealth but not hardship? I think he just comes here for money."
"If Jiedushi couldn't pay, he wouldn't come."
They completely forgot that Wu Jin was also Jieyuan. He could have money and a house with just a hand, but in the face of countless temptations and choices, he never made a wrong step.
After washing the dishes, Cheng Ting followed Wu Jin to the bathroom, rubbed the two fine cloth summer socks he had taken off, put them on the bamboo pole, rolled up his trouser legs, and stood on the ground with his bare feet: "Wu Jin , are you really going to call them tomorrow?"
Wu Jin picked up the gourd gourd and poured water on his feet: "Yes."
"Then you also call me," Cheng Ting was chilled by the mountain spring water, and the heat all over his body suddenly disappeared, "Toad Spirit is a villain, our arithmetic lecturer Qi Wenbing used to teach arithmetic at Tunan Academy , because he criticized him, he gathered his classmates and wrote a letter together, saying that Qi Wenbing's teaching was not good and he should be replaced."
He put his palms together and motioned for Wu Jin to pour water into his palms: "Shi Yuan refused to sign and made him isolated."
Wu Jin scooped water and poured it into his palm: "Okay, I'll call you."
"Come on, Jing Ha, you wash up too." Cheng Ting poured water on the big yellow dog. The big yellow dog disapproved of his new name and shook the dog's head hard, sending water droplets everywhere.
The next day, Wu Jin got up very early.
Not even half past Yin hour, the moonlight shines into the bare mountain forest, and water flows down, spreading to the walls, beams, and windows. Only sporadic green remains in the grass and mountains, and even the slightly tender bark of the trees has been gnawed clean by locusts. net.
Wu Jin tied up her hair into a bun, tied it with a wooden hairpin, put on a Tang scarf, and came out of the house. When she raised her head, she could see the moonlight, and the bells and bells on the eaves were also ringing softly. The wind had brought a coolness. Autumn has arrived quietly.
In about half a month, it will rain.
He first went to the next door to wake up Cheng Ting. Cheng Ting was drowsy and yawning, and the big yellow dog was yawning and drowsy. One man and one dog stood at the door, looking at Wu Jin with four eyes, full of doubts.
Cheng Ting asked: "What time is it?"
"I heard the soldiers report their time at the top of the fort. It should be half way through now."
"Oh?" Cheng Ting was so sleepy when he heard this, the big yellow dog flicked its tail, and his face was full of anger.
Wu Jin grabbed him and said, "Let's go wake up the people at Tunan College."
So in the early morning when the chickens were not crowing, the students of Tunan College stood in the school grounds, all helpless and confused.
They wanted to pretend to be dead on the bed, but they had never heard such a loud and rough barking, which kept coming. Coupled with Cheng Ting's shouting that shook the roof tiles, the two voices came and went, making it very lively. Even the dead would let them It’s noisy.
The four teachers who came with the team were also woken up by the noise and did not intervene in the matter - Wang Jinghua should also be rectified. Unexpectedly, Wu Jin was usually silent, but once he took action, he was faster than others. The cannon is even stronger.
The students of the Prefecture School also woke up and saw that Cheng Ting and Wu Jin were outside. They all got up and dressed, went out, picked up their baskets and hoes, and stood with Wu Jin as the center, listening to his instructions.
Wang Jinghua was so angry that he couldn't speak out because he boasted about Haikou yesterday. He reluctantly took the hoe and followed Wu Jin out of Hengshan Fort and excavated northwest.
