MTL - Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World-Chapter 594 compete
That's weird, Gu Jingyun didn't let him go as a disciple, and Chu Yi still reported to Gu's house early every day.
The people from Gu Mansion didn't stop him from coming to the door, he just invited him in as a guest whenever he came. When entering Gu's residence, he would first go to the study room to ask Gu Jingyun the questions he had accumulated, and then Gu Jingyun would recommend him to read some books and then go to the academy for classes.
Chu Yi didn't want to stay in the Gu Mansion for a long time, so he took the homework assigned by Gu Jingyun and went home to see for himself. In the afternoon, he would come back to the Gu Mansion during the time of Gu Jingyun, and continue to take care of the conservatory with Qu Weizhen and his brother.
Through the process of composting and loosening the soil, the seeds of various fruits and vegetables have been sown in the ground. Perhaps because of the warmth and fertility in the greenhouse, the seeds they sowed have not yet germinated, and the grass has emerged first, so the three Start weeding.
Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu seem to be very interested in agriculture recently. Seeing that they have plenty of time, they handed them a pile of wood and blueprints and asked them to build a waterwheel, which can then be placed in a farm on the outskirts of Beijing.
Fu Dalang has complained to Li Baolu more than once that their farm is too far from the water source, making it difficult to irrigate.
Ordinary waterwheels are difficult to meet Fu Dalang's requirements due to the low pumping capacity, so Li Baolu wanted to improve the waterwheel.
Of course she can't do this alone, so she can only ask Gu Jingyun to help.
Gu Jingyun's knowledge of arithmetic and mechanics is not bad, and the couple has made some progress so far. Seeing that the children were so leisurely, the two of them resolutely grabbed the strong man.
Moreover, Li Baolu also wanted to offer a class on agriculture in the upcoming technical school, so they took Qu Weizhen and the others to test the water first.
Qu Jingxi and Chu Yi were stunned and asked in surprise, "Do you need to be taught by others?"
Qu Weizhen has always been by Li Baolu's side. She knows all the courses she is going to offer, and she also knows all the original intentions of these courses, so she is not convinced: "Why don't people teach? Who is born to farm?"
"Yes, you have to learn how to farm and study at home with your parents and elders. Why go to a technical school?" Chu Yi glanced at Li Baolu cautiously, but couldn't help but say, "Mr. Li, although the boy doesn't know much, he still listens I've thought about your idea about the technical school. The technical school should be facing the middle and lower class people, and most of the middle and lower class people are farmers, can they not farm?"
"Of course what the teacher teaches is not something they can learn at home," Qu Weizhen said in front of Li Baolu: "Most farmers are illiterate, and their farming experience is mostly passed down by word of mouth and is limited to one area. Jiangbei does not know how Jiangnan is. Planting rice, but Jiangnan doesn’t know how to sow wheat in Jiangbei. But it’s different when you go to technical school. Since you can learn about the world’s major events from books, you can also learn things like fields from books. In addition to farming, melons, fruits and vegetables You can also learn how to sow, raise animals, and even raise sericulture. If you can help farmers get more benefits from the land, that would be a great good.”
Chu Yi blinked, half-understood. After all, he was not familiar with agriculture, but it seemed reasonable to hear Qu Weizhen say it.
He scratched his head and asked, "Mr. Li, can I learn from your side? The vegetables in the field are already sprouting, and I don't know what to do next."
Li Baolu glanced at Gu Jingyun, nodded and smiled: "Come on."
Chu Yi just followed Li Baolu to run errands for the technical school.
In fact, the preparatory work for the technical school is almost done now, the school has been arranged, the gentlemen who need to be hired have also made appointments, and the rules and regulations of the technical school have been formulated almost, even Li Baolu advertised.
She didn't make it very big at the beginning. She only promoted it in the capital and suburbs of Beijing. No one knows whether the technical school will be successful or not. Because this is a new business.
Li Baolu was just taking Qu Weizhen to go through everything again, Chu Yi followed behind and knew that Qu Weizhen was actually a husband inside.
He stared at Qu Weizhen in a stunned manner, before he recovered his voice after a while, "You can teach at such a young age?"
"It's just to teach everyone how to know a few words and arithmetic, not to teach them to take the champion exam."
The positioning of Li Baolu Technical School is very clear. She does not teach girls piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, nor does she train them to become talented women and great writers. She only hopes that they are not illiterate, and can generally recognize common words and basic arithmetic. suffer.
On this basis, they can choose agriculture, animal husbandry, textile, embroidery, sewing, woodworking, accounting and other majors for intensive study, and learn a craft that can survive in the world.
Only then did Chu Yi know that in addition to the Four Books and Five Classics, there are so many books and techniques to choose from.
He became more and more silent, and went to and fro the Gu family more frequently. Even the neighbors knew Chu Yi and raised their hands to greet him every time they saw him.
After hearing what Chu Yi had done, the students of Qingxi Academy looked at him with contempt and wariness, thinking that he was too delusional.
Why is Mr. Gu's direct disciple so good? It's not that no one has thought about it in the past few years. However, whether it is taking the route of human affection, the route of enticing, or the route of good talent and beauty, Mr. Gu can't let go of his disciples again.
Chu Yi, who ran out halfway, how could he have such delusions?
But those students couldn't help but learn from Chu Yi and entangled in Gu Jingyun's side, constantly appearing a sense of presence in front of him.
I hope Mr. Gu will see more of them, especially the juan class led by Gu Jingyun. The juan people who stand above the average age always hold a book and dangle in front of Gu Jingyun. .
almost talked about the ideal of life from poetry and poetry.
Gu Jingyun: "..."
Gu Jingyun simply had one of them all caught the strong men and put them on the street to sweep snow, euphemistically called it: experiencing the suffering of the people.
Chu Yi, who was only eleven years old, was especially conspicuous among the group of uncles. He was only eleven years old, so he could sweep the snow without shame, but he could not.
Not to mention that they already have the status of juren, even if they are a group of big men, they would be embarrassed to sweep the streets in front of a group of ordinary people, how embarrassing. If you don't know, you think they've done something wrong.
So in the end, only one Chu Yi and one Chu Yu could persevere.
On the third day of sweeping snow, Chu Yi raised his head and looked at Chu Yu, and finally the older Chu Yu smiled and said, "Your name is Chu Yi? It's a coincidence, we were a family five hundred years ago."
Chu Yi smiled embarrassedly, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Chu."
Chu Yu is already a master, and he is just a child in white clothes, so he should be called Master Chu.
"We are both taught by Mr. Gu, and I heard that you are interested in applying for the Qingxi Academy, then we are brothers, so there is no need to call me Mr."
"Mr. Gu didn't accept me as an apprentice, and I might not be able to get into the Qingxi Academy..."
Chu Yu smiled, "With Mr. Gu's guidance, how could you fail the exam? If you don't want to call me a senior, then call me a senior."
Chu Yu winked at him and said, "Don't call me Mr., Master or something like that, you call me old."
Chu Yi hesitated for a while, but still whispered "Senior Brother".
Chu Yu pursed her lips and smiled, carrying the broom and said, "Let's go, it's just the two of us today. It will take a lot of time to finish this section of the road."
Chu Yi nodded slightly, carried a broom and swept the snow with Chu Yu. The two of them were alone, and they were not lonely when they talked from time to time.
Gu Jingyun sat on the carriage and watched from a distance. After putting down the curtain, he took the warm stove from Baolu's hand, nodded his chin and said, "Let's go, it's cold, let's go back to eat mutton hot pot."
Li Baolu was nibbling on the mutton and burning it. Hearing this, he blinked and asked, "When are you going to test them?"
"It's a rule that the snow in front of each house is swept away by each house, but the snow on this road is always not swept. Last year, when the carriage passed here, I almost couldn't move. They are free, let them sweep first, and it is very cold. Snow shoveling can also exercise the body.”
"It would be more persuasive if you didn't say this with a scarf, a cloak, and a stove."
Gu Jingyun laughed loudly when he heard this, and winked at Bao Lu: "I'm doing this for our own good, and you don't want to take a detour every time you go out."
"Then do you plan to let your disciples come to sweep the snow every winter, otherwise there is no detour this winter, and it will be detoured next year."
The corner of Gu Jingyun's mouth raised lightly: "This may not be the case. Maybe next year, no, not until next year, will the residents on this road develop the habit of sweeping snow?"
"Then I'll wait and see."
Chu Yu and Chu Yi swept the snow until Gu Jingyun told them to stop when the academy was on holiday.
Gu Jingyun glanced at their sore-frozen hands, handed them a test paper, and said, "I'll give you two hours to answer."
Chu Yu and Chu Yi's eyes lit up, knowing that this was the ultimate test.
The two of them didn't dare to neglect, they reached out their hands to take the test paper respectfully and then found a place in the study to sit down and answer.
Gu Jingyun didn't supervise either, got up and left.
Just walked out of the study, a round little figure nimbly rushed out at his feet and went straight to the door.
Gu Jingyun stretched out his hand to grab it, but only had time to touch her collar, the round body twisted and broke free from his hand and flew forward.
Gu Jingyun looked at the fat girl who disappeared flexibly and silently followed her footsteps.
Erlin was unloading the New Year's goods at the gate, and his feet were stained. I was stuck there, but fortunately someone who passed by helped push it from behind..."
Dongfeng: "The two young masters of Chu didn't go to sweep the snow today, they are in the mansion."
"No wonder, I said why the road is blocked again." Erlin said regretfully: "It seems that we will have to detour again in the future."
