See you in the world

Chapter 117 New Semester

In winter, the days at Master's house were not boring. Master's wife was very kind to him, treating him as her own descendant. She made delicious food for him in different ways, and even stitched and threaded it with her own hands. Sew two clothes for Yunjing.

Master Li Qiu's children were out of town and could not come back. The arrival of Yunjing can be regarded as making up for the regret that their children are not around, and it can also be regarded as enjoying the happiness of a family relationship.

Because there is no need for lessons, Yunjing can spare a lot of time after practicing calligraphy every day, so Li Qiu began to teach Yunjing how to play chess, just to pass the boring time.

Chess is Go, a game of black and white.

To be honest, Yunjing was not an elegant person in his previous life. He had never played Go, and he didn't even understand the basic rules.

Fortunately, Li Qiu taught patiently, and Yunjing studied hard, and within a few days, Yunjing played in style.

Go is not about learning, as long as you understand the rules, you can easily play against others.

It’s just a simple game of chess. It’s still difficult to be proficient in something like Go. Li Qiu’s chess skills are very high, it must be as high as two or three floors. Anyway, Yunjing has never won once. He still enjoys talking with his master Li Qiu the next time.

It's not that Yunjing has a tendency to be masochistic, it's just that there is too little entertainment here, and there is nothing better to pass the time than playing a game of chess slowly.

But after all, he has the ability of photographic memory, and he can also multi-task, chess skills, under Li Qiu's 'torture', he grows day by day.

As for how long it will take to reach the master's height or even surpass him, Yun Jing doesn't know, anyway, he is playing, he doesn't have much ambition to win, on the contrary, with this mentality, his chess skills improve very quickly...

In addition to practicing calligraphy and playing chess, sometimes Li Qiu would take Yunjing to visit relatives and friends, only in Niujiao Town and its surrounding areas.

When visiting relatives and friends, Yun Jing was just a foil and a spectator, after all, he got to know quite a few elders when he came down again and again.

Then, Li Qiu would occasionally take Yunjing to the teahouse to listen to music and books, learn some anecdotes, and broaden his horizons.

People, most of the days are so dull and fulfilling, there is not so much fighting and killing.

This kind of ordinary life always makes people feel that time passes very slowly, but when time passes, people clearly feel that the days pass slowly, but they have not left a few deep memories.

Winter is brutal after all.

Every time Yun Jing went out with his master Li Qiu, he could more or less hear about many human tragedies, where beggars froze to death, where people who went to clean the snow on the roof fell to death, and where houses were crushed... …

Similar things happen every day even in Niujiao Town, and it can even be said that there are casualties every day!
Some people would think, if there are casualties every day, wouldn't it be true that sooner or later everyone will die if this continues?
How is that possible? Dead people are happening every day, but on the other hand, when entertainment activities are scarce, there are also many babies born. After all, between life and death, a delicate balance is maintained somewhere, and even newborns It is higher than death. After all, human beings are intelligent creatures, and they will try their best to use everything around them to protect themselves. Most of the deaths are due to "accidents"...

It's 'ridiculous' to say, when Yun Jing first came to this world, Yun Jing would feel emotional when he heard the tragedy, but now he sees and hears it a lot, and he seems to be used to it.

Is his heart numb?That's not the case, that's because he can't do anything, what can he do?
Time passed day by day, the cruel winter slipped away quietly, the snow was slowly thinning, and spring was coming.

There are too many painful events in winter that people don't want to remember, but with the arrival of spring, the living people still have to continue their life, and they can only 'forget' the pain and welcome the new year...

After the beginning of spring, Yunjing turned seven years old, and began his seventh year in this world.

When the snow melted, Yunjing returned home immediately.

The family is fine, no accidents happened, Yun Dong is a little more 'sensible' than last year, Yun Jingxin said that he might be responsible for grazing the big buffalo at home sometime this year.

At the beginning, I started herding cattle almost as young as Yun Dong, and I didn't know if my stupid younger brother was up to the job.

Yun Xi, who was a few months old, was well protected by her family, and grew up slowly without any disease or disaster. When Yun Jing returned, she would occasionally speak vaguely incomprehensible baby language.

Little Yunxi and Yundong are very similar when they were young, and they both like to cling to Yunjing, his brother, even if she has never seen Yunjing many times since she was born.

Regarding Yunjing’s return, the family is naturally happy in every possible way after not seeing him for a whole winter, but this kind of happiness did not last for two days before it became dull. This is the reality. Up front, where are there so many emotional outbursts?

Yunjing didn't stay at home for long, only four or five days, his family was busy with the new year's livelihood, and he was about to start a new semester of study.

When he returned to the town, Li Qiu took him back to the house they lived in last year. After one winter, the house lost a bit of its vitality, but their re-arrival restored the 'vitality' here.

On the second day after returning here, Li Qiu started his own unique teaching method, still did not directly impart Yunjing knowledge, but started farming with Yunjing.

The land turned up by their master and apprentice last year came in handy. They need to cultivate it by themselves to manage the growth of food. However, farming can only be done when Yunjing normally goes to school, that is, every morning and evening.

It stands to reason that Yunjing spends most of his time going to school every day, and he can't keep up with things in the land, but who makes Li Qiu a master of martial arts? Not much, but they can barely manage it.

If nothing else, they should be able to eat the food they grow this year.

To be honest, Yunjing used to help with some farm work at home, but he didn't have the whole process of participating in the whole process of digging the ground, planting seeds, and watching the seedlings grow little by little. This made him feel vaguely inexplicable. It feels like something is gestating and waiting to germinate and grow until it bears fruit.

That feeling is inexplicable, although it is full of unknown expectations, Yunjing is not too entangled, and still goes with the flow...

The new semester officially started on the third day when Yunjing and Li Qiu started farming. At this time, because of the foundation of last year's study, their courses have been changed.

The etiquette class is still fixed every day, and Yunjing and the others are taught by Yang Yunkong. In addition, their literacy class has been reduced from three classes a day to two classes, and they have added a new class for the remaining class. Math class.

Yunjing probably guessed that with the deepening of their studies, there will be fewer and fewer literacy classes in the future, and they will be replaced by other more esoteric classes.

In the new semester, apart from the change of coursework, Yang Yunkong, who is a teacher, announced something relatively important to Yunjing and the others.

That is, after they studied and got along with each other last year, this class needs to elect a "leader", which translates to Yunjing's hometown, which probably means the monitor.

Once you become the leader of the class, you have certain rights, and of course, you also have to bear some obligations.

The so-called rights are really not small for the people in the class. When the teacher is not around, he has the right to restrain the students in the class, and even has the right to punish those students who have done wrong things under reasonable circumstances.

I have to say that the rights are not small, but to put it another way, it is also an errand that offends others.

However, not everyone can take on the job of offending others. First of all, your academic performance must be convincing. Learning, as the name suggests, means being a leader. If your own grades are not good, how can you set an example?

Secondly, you need a certain amount of popularity and prestige, otherwise, who will submit to you?Without this point, even if you become a collar student, you may only become a joke, and you will be 'empty', which will be very embarrassing.

'Rights' and obligations are mutual. When you become a leader and gain certain rights, you also have to bear the obligations. You need to supervise the study and discipline of the students, as well as the etiquette and atmosphere. If someone in the class makes the whole class The embarrassing thing is that as the person who received the education, he didn't supervise well, and he has to bear certain responsibilities depending on the situation.

It stands to reason that this so-called leading school is a thankless task, but after Yang Yunkong announced, the twenty students in the whole class became excited, and all of them were gearing up to become the leading students in the class.

Why are people so active and even eager to get things that are obviously thankless?That's because becoming a leader will have a jealous benefit.

In the final analysis, a student, big or small, is considered an 'official'. Once one becomes a student, it must be recorded on the student status, and will be taken to the government for filing. Once done well, it will become an official in the future imperial examinations. bonus!
Of course, the proportion of this bonus item is negligible.

In this way, who would not want to become a leader? The imperial examination is a single-plank bridge for thousands of troops to cross. To become a leader is a chance to gain fame and fame. Who doesn't want to fight for it?
Yunjing was moved and didn't want to give up this opportunity.

Everyone wants to be a leader, so who do you choose?

Yang Yunkong didn't conduct any complicated assessments, but asked everyone to recommend themselves and recommend them. As long as they can convince the crowd, they can become the leader of the class.

As far as Yunjing and the others are at this age, under the circumstance that everyone is working extremely hard, their knowledge is actually about the same, even if they are better than others, it is 'limited', and the knowledge they have now alone cannot make a final decision to gain an advantage and become a leader. of.

After some self-recommendation and recommendations, Yang Yunkong, as a teacher, considered all aspects and finally decided on two candidates, and selected the best of these two to appoint the post of leader.

These two were Yun Jing and Lin Yexing!
