They went to the main room together, where Ji Jin's three brothers and sisters took their seats, and the three young men of the Xu family who could not run away took their seats one after another.
Before dinner, Xu Shoufu asked: "How was your study today?"
The three young masters of the Xu family turned pale, but Ji Jin was quite calm and poured a glass of turbid wine for Xu Shoufu.
"Master, this disciple has learned a lot today."
"How to say?"
After successfully changing the topic, the three young masters of the Xu family cast grateful glances at Ji Jin, trying to minimize their presence; they just hoped that their grandfather would not notice them, otherwise they would not even have lunch.
Ji Jin said calmly: "Second Junior Brother and I have been watching Junior Sister flip through books all morning."
Xu Shoufu was stunned for a moment, but did not interrupt and listened to him continue.
"My junior sister can flip through books so fast. It takes about as long as a cup of tea for us to read. My junior sister doesn't need to use it, not even half a cup of tea, which shocked my second junior brother and me. One morning, my junior brother Junior sister has read seven books, you heard me right, seven books!"
"Seeing it so fast?" Xu Shoufu turned to look at Minghua, "Can you all understand?"
Minghua shook her head and answered him, "I can't understand everything, but I've remembered the ones that I can't understand. I plan to ask the master to clarify my doubts after dinner."
Xu Shoufu stopped talking now. Being able to talk to this point shows that she is really looking at it. However, she cannot be inferred according to ordinary people's logic.
"Eat first."
"yes."
The people at the table were eating slowly, Minghua was eating happily, Ji Jin and Cui Changhe were eating food that they didn’t know how to taste; the three young masters of the Xu family were all eating carefully, looking at Minghua while eating, and they didn’t know what was going on in his mind. They are so good-looking, but compared with others, they are as brainless as pigs.
Therefore, it is not unreasonable for my grandfather to value him and accept him as his disciple.
They seemed to see a future of suffocating and despairing reading days.
It’s so difficult for them to have a little sister-in-law who knows how to read, is willing to study, and works hard to study!
After lunch, the three young masters of the Xu family thought they could go back to rest. Unexpectedly, Chief Xu wiped his mouth and said, "It's just right. You guys are here, and I will take the exam together. Housekeeper, go and call the eldest grandson of the old family."
Don't think you can escape by running.
In an instant, the faces of the three young masters were as pale as paper, and they could not live anymore; they had never seen the school exam before after studying for half a day! At most, I will take the exam once every half month.
"Yes, sir."
The housekeeper returned not long after he left, and the eldest son of the Xu family's grandchildren followed behind him in a hurry, with a grave look on his face.
Minghua felt strange and pulled Ji Jin's sleeves, "Elder brother, what's wrong with them? Look at the dejected look on their faces. How much of a blow have they suffered?"
Ji Jin looked at the innocent face of his little junior sister, and he wanted to vomit blood if he asked her.
Cui Changhe was not much better, but he habitually kept a straight face, making it difficult for people to see what he was thinking.
"Little junior sister, don't say this in front of them, be careful about their breakfast." Ji Jin finally said this.
Xu Shoufu heard their discussion and glanced at his grandsons, inevitably feeling disgusted in his heart; he disliked them for studying like this, and talking about taking exams was like killing someone.
"Come on, let's drink tea in the study. I'll take the exam first."
The group of people followed Xu Shoufu into the study room, and the butler brought tea and left. Xu Shoufu, the old master, was taking exams at the entrance. Most of the questions were from the books, and occasionally some people's livelihood and practical issues were mixed in.
The books are just theoretical things, and what you really need to understand thoroughly is practice.
Minghua is accustomed to this. She has experienced the three-year college entrance examination in modern times. It is not that she has not experienced exams that are more difficult than the master. For her, it is like eating.
She dealt with it very well, and would always ask questions when she didn't understand something. Xu Shoufu was very pleased, but Ji Jin and Cui Changhe secretly felt bitter in their hearts.
The four young masters of the Xu family went even further. After Xu Shoufu finished taking the exam for Minghua, he answered all the questions for Minghua. The four of them had the urge to kneel down in front of their master. This is a man of God, he is really understand and remember.
As long as you remember it, you can still use it freely.
The questions that I don’t understand are all in my mind, and they are nothing like them. I can’t remember them after reading them. I have to read them a few more times. Maybe I won’t be able to remember them after reading them a few more times.
Anyway.
Bitter!
By the time Xu Shoufu finished taking the exams for everyone, the four young masters of the Xu family were already ashen-faced, as if they had been tortured by life.
Ji Jin and Cui Changhe are relatively easy to cope with, and they have always kept up with their homework. At their age, they have read almost the same books; they also have daily discussions, and their understanding is a little deeper. They are not that good compared to the four Xu family members. There we go.
Xu Shoufu stared at his four grandsons and frowned, "Your homework is not solid enough. Don't rush to learn other things. Read the books you have read before first. If you can't do it, just memorize it by rote. If you are not afraid of being stupid, just do it." I’m afraid that people won’t work hard.”
"grandfather......"
The little grandson of the Xu family looked up tremblingly, but saw Xu Shoufu's frown, and immediately stopped talking; he wanted to cry so much, he was only eight years old, why should he suffer such a crime? Even if the brothers work hard, why should we drag him along to work hard together?
"A man, what are you doing with a hard face? Just say what you have to say."
The little grandson of the Xu family: I don’t dare!
Xu Shoufu sneered, and his dislike of the four grandsons escalated to a higher level, "Look at what you are doing, okay, go back and continue reading; memorize all the knowledge points in the book as soon as possible. Even if you can't understand, you have to memorize it for me." ”
"ah?"
"Grandpa, I want to take a nap." The little grandson said bitterly.
Helplessness filled Xu Shoufu's eyes, "Look at your little sister-in-law, does she want to take a nap?"
"I don't take a nap." What is a nap? For a girl like her, it is natural to read more and do well if she has the opportunity to study; this is her only way out, as long as she climbs up, no one can decide whether she will marry or not.
The four boys from the Xu family looked at Minghua sadly with sad faces. Minghua's skin was so goosebumps that she rubbed her arms and her whole body felt bad.
"Look." Xu Shoufu was full of fire, "Are you as smart as your aunt? Do you have the talent of your aunt? You still dare to be lazy and sleep; you don't have the talent to work hard enough. As my grandson, Xu Lingjun, look What have you become?"
"They are all boys. Even if you are girls, you are not as squeamish as you. No matter how you sleep, you should cheer me up and study."
Minghua couldn't help but think of modern emoticons.
What do you want to sleep on? How to sleep well.jpeg
The four grandchildren of the Xu family left dejectedly. Xu Shoufu was still angry in his heart. Looking at the three apprentices in front of him, he felt better. Fortunately, there were still three who were up to par.
"You also go to study."
"yes."
The three of them bowed and left. Ji Jin and Cui Changhe had experienced such scenes several times and planned to leave as soon as possible; otherwise, what would happen if the master gave them more homework!
