Sima Xiangli asked the housekeeper to buy the entire mountain, but because the school was eager to use it, it originally wanted to build it with bricks and tiles, so it had to be built with wood.
Although the school was made of wood, it did not dampen Sima Ao's interest in learning at all.
Now Sima Ao, Xiaopang, Jiang Bin, and Li Fulai are interested in studying and no longer skip classes.
Dongfang Yu'er has a full schedule of classes every day, but sometimes she also lets Sima Ao, Xiao Pang, Jiang Bin, and Li Fu come and play.
After a morning of classes, Dongfang Yu asked Sima Ao, Xiao Pang, Jiang Bin, and Li Fulai to relax and there would be no classes in the afternoon.
It was a hot summer day. When the five of them heard that they would not have classes in the afternoon, they jumped up with joy.
It was so hot that the five of them ran to the creek to catch fish and take a bath.
Dongfang Yu'er had to prepare lessons and had no time to supervise, so she asked Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu to supervise the five people.
Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu came to the stream and saw five people soaking naked in the water.
The five of them are ten-year-old children, which can be said to be quite young. Ding Xiang and Yuzhu always feel embarrassed when they see them.
Seeing that the stream was not deep, Dingxiang and Yuzhu walked away, and the five of them had fun in the stream.
Lilac and Polygonatum odorifera came to enjoy the shade under a fruit tree not far from the stream.
Watching the beautiful scenery of the mountains and fields; enjoying the cool summer breeze; listening to the chirping of cicadas and insects; Lilac and Polygonatum odorifera couldn't help but feel that they were truly enjoying the world.
Yuzhu felt a little thirsty, so he picked some fruits to quench his thirst.
After the two of them finished eating the fruit, they squinted under the tree for a while.
Seeing that the sun was going down, Polygonatum odoratum and Lilac picked some more fruits and took them back.
At this time, the five of them had had enough fun, got dressed and went ashore, and also caught a few fairly big fish.
Yuzhu and Dingxiang held the picked fruits, and Sima Ao and the other two carried the fish and returned to the wooden house humming a little tune.
Dongfang Yu'er had never seen everyone so happy, and couldn't help but ask: "It seems that not only did everyone have fun today, but they also had a good harvest?"
Uh-huh!
Everyone nodded.
"We picked some fruits so that we can relieve the heat." Polygonatum odoratum and Dingxiang put the picked fruits into the fruit basket and ordered their servants to wash the fruits and share them with everyone.
"Sir, we caught some fish. We can grill them and eat them tonight. They will be delicious."
Sima Ao excitedly ran to Dongfang Yu'er, like a child vying for favor, and told Dongfang Yu'er. I was very lucky today and was able to catch a few big fish, but Xiaopang, Jiang Bin, and Li Fulai didn't catch any.
"Is it?"
Dongfang Yu'er looked at the lovely Sima Ao tenderly, her eyes full of doting.
Dongfang Yu'er praised Sima Ao for a few words, and then ordered the cook to do as Sima Ao said and roast the caught fish.
The cook responded and entered the kitchen carrying the caught fish.
The happiest thing was when everyone gathered around the stone platform in the yard to have dinner. Every time we have dinner, everyone is always laughing and laughing.
Tonight’s dinner is grilled fish, fruits picked from cloves and polygonatum odorifera, and of course a few side dishes.
After dinner, Sima Ao, Xiaopang, Jiang Bin, and Li Fulai played in the yard for a while, and then went back to their rooms to sleep.
At night, Dongfang Yu'er noticed that Sima Ao's face was flushed, he was moaning in pain, and he was accompanied by two coughs.
Dongfang Yu'er probed Sima Ao's forehead.
Dongfang Yu'er was shocked. Sima Ao's forehead was very hot, indicating that he had a fever.
Dongfang Yu'er probed the foreheads of Xiaopang, Jiang Bin, and Li Fulai, and found that their body temperatures were normal.
Dongfang Yu'er asked about Sima Ao's playtime in the afternoon.
Dingxiang and Yuzhu noticed Dongfang Yu'er's worry and felt that there was nothing wrong with Wenquxingjun when he was playing in the stream. Maybe Wenquxingjun had been soaking in the stream for too long and was so cold that he developed a fever.
Dongfang Yu'er glanced at Xiaopang, Jiang Bin, and Li Fulai, and couldn't help but sigh and said: "Three mortals have not been caught in the cold. I don't understand that you, who became a mortal, would be so weak."
Listening to Sima Ao's moans and coughs, Dongfang Yu'er's heart felt as uncomfortable as being pulled by an invisible thread.
It's so late and the mountain road is rugged, so it's hard to find a doctor!
Dongfang Yuer ordered Dingxiang to boil some hot water, and ordered Polygonatum odoratum to boil some herbs to relieve the heat.
Within a teacup, Lilac brought a basin of hot water.
Dongfang Yu'er put the towel into hot water, squeezed it dry, and applied it to Sima Ao's forehead to cool down Sima Ao.
When Dongfang Yu'er was cooling down Sima Ao, Sima Ao suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Dongfang Yu'er half awake, and called Dongfang Yu'er 'mother'.
This son's father actually calls his son's mother 'mother'?
Ding Xiang looked at Dongfang Yu'er in astonishment, and saw a flash of sadness on Dongfang Yu'er's face.
Listening to Sima Ao shouting, "Mother, hug me, I'm so scared!" Dongfang Yu'er felt mixed emotions in her heart. She felt like she wanted to cry but couldn't, and she wanted to laugh but was tearful.
"Don't be afraid, mother is here!"
"Mom, I feel so uncomfortable!"
"Ji'er is sick. Of course she will feel uncomfortable. Don't worry, mother will heal Ji'er."
Sima Ao, who was suffering from a high fever, was in a daze and didn't know who the Ji'er in Dongfang Yu'er's mouth was. He threw himself in Dongfang Yu'er's arms and acted coquettishly, completely regarding Dongfang Yu'er as his biological mother, Mrs. Xiang.
Even though Sima Ao didn't remember her and only regarded her as her mother, Dongfang Yu'er was not angry and hugged Sima Ao tightly according to Sima Ao's request.
At this time, Yuzhu brought the prepared medicine, and Dongfang Yuer drank it for Sima Ao.
Feeling secure enough, Sima Arrogant fell asleep slowly.
Dongfang Yu'er gently laid the sleeping Sima Ao on the bed, and gave Sima Ao some immortal energy to nourish Sima Ao's weak soul.
Sima Ao received Dongfang Yu'er's careful care for one night and recovered from his illness the next day. He also forgot about his illness last night.
Dongfang Yu'er didn't mention what happened last night, nor did she let Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu mention it.
…………………………………………
Dongfang Yuer asked Sima Ao to observe a small grass with lanceolate stipules every day.
Sima Ao didn't understand the teacher's intention, but he still did it.
Sima Ao touched it lightly with his hand. The stipules of this plant were lanceolate, the leaves were like pinnae, and the grass on the top of the petiole was arranged like fingers.
The leaves of the grass closed shyly, and after a while they opened slowly, like a shy girl.
Sima Ao had never seen such an interesting grass. He kept touching it with his hands, as if he was teasing a girl.
Xiaopang, Jiang Bin, and Li Fulai saw Sima Ao having so much fun and took advantage of it. They also found it fun and joined in the provocative behavior.
Lord Dongfang saw this and scolded the four of them.
Sima Ao had never seen Dongfang Yu'er angry before, and asked confusedly: "Teacher is just a piece of grass, why can't we touch him?"
"I want you to observe its characteristics, not tease it."
"What's wrong with the teacher's teasing? It's just a grass." I asked, not fat and not understanding.
"Yes." Jiang Bin and Li Fulai also expressed confusion.
"It's just a little grass. It can't speak or resist. Does that mean it's meant to be teased by you? All things in the world are equal and should have the power and dignity to live."
Dongfang Yu'er's words made Xiaocao feel Da Siming's love and affection, and she exuded a little spiritual light.
"Oh my God, this grass is actually a spiritual grass." Sima Ao looked at the little aura and exclaimed in surprise.
"Where? Why didn't we see it?"
