,
"Sister Honghua, Sister Dongmei, thank you for your hard work." Looking at the two girls who were only about eighteen years old, Jian Chen said softly.
These two girls are both maids in the Changyang Mansion, and they are the ones who specialize in taking care of Jian Chen's daily affairs. After Jian Chen lived alone in a room, his mother Bi Yuntian specially sent these two maids to take care of him. Jian Chen.
After hearing what Jian Chen said, the two maids smiled sweetly, and one of them said: "Fourth Young Master, you must not be so polite. As maids, these are what we should do."
"Yes, Fourth Young Master, you must never say this again in the future. If the manager hears your words, we will be severely punished." Another maid also said.
Jian Chen smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, I won't say that in front of outsiders." Jian Chen also understood very well that the concept of hierarchy in Changyang Mansion was very strong. As the dignified fourth young master of Changyang Mansion, if these words were heard by outsiders, After hearing this, I wonder if these two maids will really receive some punishment.
After washing, Jian Chen left his room and walked towards his mother Biyuntian's room as usual. His mother's room was not far from his room, only a short distance of more than twenty meters.
As soon as he entered the room, Jian Chen saw his mother dressing up at the dressing table, and there were two maids waiting beside her.
"Xiang'er, why did you come here so early today?" As soon as he saw Jian Chen, Bi Yuntian showed a soft smile on his face, and his eyes towards Jian Chen were full of doting.
Seeing the doting look in Bi Yuntian's eyes, Jian Chen's heart softened completely. In his previous life, Jian Chen lost his parents when he was young. He didn't know what maternal love was and had never experienced it. But since he came here , but he truly felt the power of maternal love. At the same time, in Jian Chen's heart, he vaguely cherished this hard-won maternal love.
Jian Chen came to Biyuntian, stretched out his hand to touch his stomach, smiled sheepishly, and said: "My child is hungry!" After the exercise last night, Jian Chen's stomach is really a little hungry now. .
Biyuntian reached out and touched Jian Chen's head, and said with a smile: "Then let's go to the dining hall with my mother to eat later."
"Yes!" Jian Chen nodded slightly, with a look of satisfaction on his face, but in his heart he was enjoying this mother's caring heart.
After a pause, Jian Chen shouted again: "Mother!"
Bi Yuntian looked at Jian Chen with soft eyes and said softly: "Xiang'er, if you have anything to do, just tell me directly!"
Jian Chen hesitated for a while, sorted out the thoughts in his mind, then looked at Biyuntian and said: "Mom, can you tell me what kind of world is outside."
After hearing this, Biyuntian was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said: "Xiang'er, are you interested in the outside world?"
"The kid is just curious!" Jian Chen said.
Biyuntian smiled slightly and said: "Xiang'er, the world outside is very vast and very complicated. It cannot be explained clearly in a few words. If you want to know what kind of world it is outside, it's best to Let's go and read some books." After saying this, Biyuntian looked helpless and said, "But Xiang'er, you don't know how to read. Even if you get there, you won't know any of the words written in the book."
"Mom, why don't you send someone to teach me how to read?" Jian Chen's tone was vaguely dissatisfied.
Hearing this, Biyuntian smiled and said: "Xiang'er, you are only two years old now. A two-year-old child has to start to read. This is something that my mother has never heard of, and in our Tianyuan Continent, This has never happened before. Generally speaking, even the first children to learn to read have to wait until they are four or five years old."
Jian Chen suddenly realized, and continued: "Mom, my child wants to learn to read now, so can you find someone to teach me?"
After hearing this, Bi Yuntian was stunned for a moment, and then showed a happy smile and said: "Xiang'er, literacy is a very hard task, and it is also very boring. You must know that there are so many words in our continent that it is difficult to read. It can’t be completed in a short time, are you sure you want to start literacy now?”
Jian Chen nodded affirmatively and said: "Yes!"
After receiving Jian Chen's affirmative reply, the smile on Biyuntian's face became even brighter, and she said happily: "Since it is Xiang'er's request, I will also support you very much." After saying that, Biyuntian turned his head slightly, Said: "Xiao Liu! Later you go and invite the most famous teacher in Luoer City to my house and let him teach me, Xiang'er, how to read!"
"Yes, madam!" The maid who was helping Biyuntian comb her hair responded respectfully.
"Xiang'er, it's getting late now. Let's go to the dining hall. Don't starve yourself."
The day passed quickly. Early the next morning, the teacher Jian Chen's mother Bi Yuntian invited for him came to the house early and began to teach Jian Chen knowledge.
From then on, Jian Chen spent almost all his time during the day studying literacy. Since Jian Chen retained the memory of his previous life, his spirit was unprecedentedly strong, so it was not difficult for Jian Chen to understand the characters of this new continent. , especially under the careful guidance of someone, it becomes even more relaxed, and he also has a strong memory that is almost photographic, so the learning of characters progresses very quickly. It only took three short months. He completely learned the common characters on the mainland.
The speed at which Jian Chen learned characters made the teacher amazed. Then when his mother Biyuntian knew that Jian Chen had completely learned characters in just three months, she couldn't believe it. In the end, I finally accepted this fact after a personal test. After all, if you want to learn all the common characters on the mainland, according to the normal speed, it will take at least one or two years or more, and Jian Chen learned it in just three years. In just a few months, he completed what others took one or two years to complete. It would have been impossible without a genius-like mind.
This matter was soon known to Jian Chen's father, Changyang Ba, and Changyang Ba personally went to Jian Chen's room to visit him.
"Xiang'er, you have worked hard during this period, so just relax and have a good time. As a father, I can also give you a reward as a reward for your hard work on literacy these past few months. I don't know what you want, Xiang'er. What kind of reward do you want?" Changyang Ba looked at Jian Chen with a smile on his face and said softly. Having such a genius son, he felt very proud in his heart, and naturally he became even more caring towards Jian Chen.
After hearing this, Jian Chen's eyes lit up, and he said without thinking: "Dad, why don't you let your child go to the middle school and read some books? By the way, you can also gain some knowledge."
Changyang Ba's eyes lit up, and he looked at Jian Chen with a hint of relief, and laughed and said: "Of course there is no problem, Xiang'er, you have such a progressive heart, and as a father, I am also happy for you. Now I approve it. , you can enter freely in the future."
"Thank you, dad!" Jian Chen also showed a happy smile on his face. Being able to enter is also a happy thing for Jian Chen. After all, during this period of time, he gradually understood that not just anyone can enter. Only direct disciples over six years old are eligible to enter. Of course, if you have the permission of the family leader, you will not be able to enter. Counted.
Afterwards, Changyang Ba exchanged greetings with Jian Chen and left. As soon as Changyang Ba left, Jian Chen couldn't sit still anymore. He immediately left the room and walked towards the house. After all, he had worked hard in the past three months. Literacy is all about being able to read books with detailed information about the world. Although Jian Chen can also ask his mother for some information about this world, the records in the books are much more detailed and comprehensive after all, so Jian Chen values these books so much.
Jian Chen had already found out its location, it was in a high tower in the family's backyard. When Jian Chen stepped into the backyard, he immediately felt that there were a large number of masters hidden around him, and pairs of eyes fell on him like poisonous snakes.
Jian Chen held his head high and walked toward the tall tower in front of him, pretending not to notice anything. If people knew that he could feel the gazes of those hiding in the dark, it would probably immediately trigger a series of problems for him. Trouble, after all, he looks like a two-year-old child now, and he doesn't know any martial arts.
Although there were many direct disciples in Changyang Mansion, few people came and went, so Jian Chen saw no one else except a few guards standing guard along the way.
Soon he came to the sect of the high tower. Jian Chen stopped and raised his head slightly. He saw a very large plaque hanging on the gate entering the tower, with three big characters "" written on it. In front of the gate, there were two guards guarding it, but Jian Chen could tell at a glance that these guards had considerable strength.
Jian Chen walked straight to the gate entering the tower, opened the door and walked directly in. The two guards standing guard at the gate did not stop them in any way. They stood upright and motionless like wooden sculptures. , even when he saw Jian Chen, he didn't even say hello.
When Jian Chen entered the tower, he saw a long corridor. It was clearly daytime outside and the sun was shining brightly, but it seemed extremely dark in the corridor. On the walls on both sides of the corridor, people shouted at every distance. Holding a fist-sized luminous pearl to provide light here.
This corridor was very long and probably ran through the entire tower, dividing the tower into two areas. When Jian Chen came to the end of the corridor, he encountered two forks.
"Fourth Young Master, the master of the house has ordered that you have permission to enter the area on the left." At this moment, an old voice sounded, and with the words, a tall figure gradually emerged from the darkness.
Hearing the sound, Jian Chen turned around and looked around. Although the light here was very dim, he could clearly see the face of the man in the darkness. He saw that he was a very old man with white hair. , and his old face was covered with wrinkles, he was wearing an old gray robe, and his eyes were unremarkable, giving the impression that he was a very ordinary old man.
Although the old man looked very ordinary no matter how he looked, Jian Chen did not dare to underestimate the old man. He could clearly feel that the old man in front of him was a very powerful master, and he was the one who came to this world. The most powerful person he has ever seen since then, even his father Changyang Ba, is far from being comparable to the old man in front of him.
