"That's great, that's great!" Mr. Chu repeated twice, his expression too excited to contain himself.
Su Qingyun asked hesitantly: "Teacher, do you need to hold any apprenticeship ceremony?" She knew that many people paid more attention to apprenticeship and ceremony.
"No need." Mr. Chu shook his head and said, "At this time, everything can be kept simple." At this time, there is no need to stick to any formality.
However, the apprenticeship ceremony is no longer needed. The apprenticeship ceremony is still indispensable. Mr. Chu thought about what apprenticeship ceremony he could give Su Qingyun. He said: "I have several mathematical manuscripts at home that I have written over the years. I will bring them next time." Here it is, consider it a apprenticeship gift from the teacher."
Mathematics manuscript? Not to mention Su Qingyun, Ji Yue was a little jealous.
"Great, thank you, teacher!" Su Qingyun was immediately overjoyed when he heard the four words "Mathematical Manuscript", and the teacher also became more and more fluent in saying these two words.
She wondered in her mind whether she should also prepare a gift for the teacher. In ancient times, all apprentices had to prepare a bundle for the master.
After getting excited, Mr. Chu began to think seriously about how to teach Su Qingyun. This child's talent was so high that he had to formulate a learning plan suitable for her so as not to bury her talent.
"Qingyun, I remember you live in Luoshui Village, right?" Mr. Chu pondered for a moment.
"Yes, teacher."
"In that case, can you come to the library every weekend? Once a week when you are studying, and twice a week during holidays." This frequency of classes is already enough for Mr. Chu to consider that the distance from Luoshui Village to the county seat is not short. , otherwise he would like to teach her every day.
"Yes, teacher." Su Qingyun nodded obediently and agreed.
"Okay, then it's settled." Mr. Chu said with a smile on his face.
Later, Mr. Chu personally found some books for Su Qingyun and asked her to take them back to read. Su Qingyun took the books, and Mr. Chu magically pulled out a brand new book of questions.
"Take it back and work on it, and bring it with you when you come next time." Mr. Chu said with a smile. He guarded this library where not many people came every day, and had a lot of time to do his own things, such as thinking and publishing. question.
Su Qingyun suddenly felt that her hands were heavy, not only from the weight of the book, but also from the teacher's expectations for her.
"Wait for me here for a while while I go out." Not long after the two of them walked out of the library, Ji Yue suddenly remembered something and said to Su Qingyun.
What? Before Su Qingyun could react, Ji Yue had already rushed into the department store not far away. Not long after, he came back with large and small bags of things.
"What are you..." Su Qingyun's almond-shaped eyes widened slightly.
"Bring it back to you and your uncle." Ji Yue said, his mother had specifically asked this before coming out.
Seeing that Su Qingyun opened his mouth to refuse, Ji Yue said again: "It's just a courtesy, no refusal."
"If you don't take me back, I won't be able to deliver."
Looking at his serious face, Su Qingyun was a little funny. This was the first time she had seen someone give gifts so domineeringly.
"Okay, I'll accept it then." Su Qingyun smiled, "Go back and thank Auntie for me."
"Yeah." Ji Yue didn't give her anything, but carried it himself.
When Su Qingyun and Ji Yue arrived at the county station to take the bus back, Su Aimin had been waiting for a while.
"Where's Uncle Nan?" Seeing that her father was alone, Su Qingyun asked.
"gone back."
"What took it so long?" Su Aimin breathed a sigh of relief. If his daughter didn't come back, he would have to go to the library to find someone.
"Something delayed me." Su Qingyun said.
"What's going on?" Su Aimin asked doubtfully.
"Let's talk when we get back." Su Qingyun looked at the sky and saw that it was already getting late, "If we don't leave, we won't be able to catch the last bus."
"Okay, let's go."
It gets dark early in winter now, and by the time the last bus staggers back to the town, it's almost completely dark.
When Ji Yue handed the things in his hand to Su Aimin, Su Aimin was stunned for a moment. He thought that Ji Yue wanted to buy these things for home, but he didn't expect that they were gifts for his own family.
"What is this for? No, no, take it back yourself." Su Aimin refused Sanlian.
Ji Yue insisted on stuffing the bag into Su Aimin's hand, "Uncle Su, just accept it."
Su Qingyun was not surprised as he watched the two of them refuse. After pushing to the limit, Su Aimin was defeated and reluctantly accepted the things.
She looked up at the sky. Oh my god, the moon was out.
The father and daughter walked on the way home, their steps were slow and slow, and they were not in a hurry to go back. Facing the moonlight as white as frost, the father and daughter chatted about one thing or another.
"Dad, I will go to the county town every week from now on. If you want to sell goods, I will go with you."
"Go there once a week? What are you doing?" Su Aimin wondered, "Is it fun to ride in the car?"
"Dad, what are you talking about?" Su Qingyun said helplessly, "I hired a teacher today, and I have to go to the county town to take classes every week."
"What the hell? Apprenticeship?" Su Aimin paused, with a look of doubt on his face, "Where did the teacher come from?" There were so many teachers in the middle school in the town, but his daughter didn't have enough classes every day?
He only knows that if you want to learn a craft, such as carpentry or blacksmith, you have to have a teacher. But if you want to learn knowledge, you have to have a teacher? Isn’t that all learned in school?
"A very powerful teacher." Su Qingyun pretended to be mysterious.
"Explain the matter to me clearly." Su Aimin frowned, he was afraid that Su Qingyun had been deceived by someone.
Su Qingyun explained the matter in detail, and Su Aimin slowly widened his eyes.
"Mr. Chu is a mathematics professor from the capital. He is very powerful." Su Qingyun's tone was a bit proud, as if he was honored.
"A professor from the capital?" Su Aimin was surprised, "A professor like your Uncle Qi?"
"Yes, but the majors they teach are different. One is agriculture and the other is mathematics. They are very different." Su Qingyun explained.
Su Aimin was confused, isn't this mathematics just arithmetic?
"I don't understand your math, I just need to be able to settle the accounts." Su Aimin said.
Su Qingyun smiled, "That's not possible, Dad, think about it, the business you are doing now is still small and the amount is small, you can handle it. What if your business becomes bigger in the future and you can't handle it? Hire someone to settle your accounts. Are you relieved?"
"Of course I'm worried." Su Aimin didn't even think about it.
"Isn't that right, so dad, you must learn more and keep up with the times, otherwise you will only fall behind and be surpassed by others." Su Qingyun said in a teasing tone.
Although Su Aimin didn't have many particularly lofty ambitions, Su Qingyun said that he felt a little bit of a sense of crisis. He thought for a while and said: "My dear, do you have any books on business in the county library? You're next. I'll borrow a few books from my dad once again."
"That's not called a business book, that's called an economic book." Su Qingyun corrected, who dares to publish a book teaching people how to do business now? It’s not like he has a long life.
"It doesn't matter whether it's a golden or silver rooster, just lend it to me." Su Aimin said, his daughter was right, he had to see what others did, what the society was like, and what the country's policies were.
For the first time, Su Aimin seriously thought about what step he wanted to take in the future.
He thought for a long time before he realized that he had gone off topic, "No, what about your teacher? This professor accepts you as a student, do we have to express our gratitude?"
I heard from his daughter that the professor lived alone in the county, and he must not have a very good life.
"No need to express it, I just have to think about preparing a apprenticeship ceremony for the teacher." Su Qingyun said, she patted her bag, "What I have here is the treasure that the teacher gave me today."
"What baby?"
"Teacher's math notes."
Su Aimin was speechless, treating the notebook as a treasure? He was suddenly a little worried, would his daughter become a nerd if she continued to study like this?
As the father and daughter chatted, time passed very quickly. They arrived home soon. Everyone else had eaten, but Qin Ying was still waiting for the father and daughter to come back and eat together.
Looking at the things Su Aimin was carrying, she frowned, "Why did you carry so much when you went out and still carry so much when you came back?"
"If you can think of others, they will naturally think of us. I really can't refuse." Su Aimin said. He didn't expect that Ji Yue, who usually seems to be talkative, would be so difficult to deal with today.
Qin Ying smiled and said, "Sister Qiu is this kind of person." He used to treat her as his own sister, but now he is as good to her as ever.
Everyone else had gone back to their rooms to rest. Only the three of them sat together to eat. Su Aimin casually mentioned that his daughter had become a teacher. His tone was relaxed and he didn't think it was a big deal.
Qin Ying reacted fiercely. She understood better than Su Aimin how important and rare it was for Su Qingyun to be accepted as a student by a former university professor at his age. In her heart, this was even more joyful than Su Qingyun receiving a commendation. matter.
"That's great, Yunyun, you have to study hard, not everyone has this opportunity." Qin Ying warned seriously.
Qin Ying recalled that she chose to go to the countryside instead of studying after receiving the university notice. Although her life is now considered happy and happy, this incident is also a regret in her heart.
Maybe her daughter can accomplish what she failed to do. With the policies outside changing every day, maybe one day she will be able to take the college entrance examination again?
"I know, mother." Su Qingyun nodded, and she also knew that this opportunity was hard-won.
"By the way, which university did you say your teacher is from?" Qin Ying asked curiously.
"Professor Chu Xianming, Capital University." Su Qingyun said.
"Professor Chu Xianming?" Qin Ying's eyes suddenly widened, "Are you talking about Professor Chu Xianming, the director of the Department of Mathematics at Beijing University?"
"Mom, do you know my teacher?"
"Where do I know each other?" Qin Ying smiled, "My mother's former classmate majored in mathematics at Beijing University. I have heard of Professor Chu. He is a powerful person. He is not only a professor in the mathematics department, but also quite famous in physics. Make a difference."
Qin Ying couldn't help but sigh that her daughter was really lucky to have such a powerful teacher as soon as she became a teacher.
