Chapter 199
After Chang Xi met him in a hurry, five or six days have passed since now, and finally met him for the second time.

These days, they also learned from other channels that Cao Jingxiu passed the provincial examination and is now a serious scholar.

However, his student status is in the name of Liaocheng, and has nothing to do with Stone Town.

Therefore, the fact that he passed the examination as a scholar was not widely publicized in Stone Town.

More ordinary people, the ones who pay attention are still Huang He, a scholar who came from Shigu Academy.

His fame is even higher than the old master's. If he simply uses his fame to judge his level, he can say that he is not the old master's student anymore.On the contrary, the old master should be respectful to him, as a show of respect for scholars.

So Chang Xi never thought that Cao Xiu would come to the village to learn.The other three brothers were also amazed by surprise.

On the contrary, Cao Jingxiu greeted them with a smile and nodded like a normal person.

"What's the matter?" The master looked towards the door.

"Oh, it's nothing to worry about. Since Master and Mr. Cao have something to talk about, let's come back later."

After finishing speaking, Chang Xi turned around again.

Cao Jingxiu quickly said, "We've finished talking, Xibao, do you have any questions to ask? I heard from my master that you have been working hard recently, and you always have book knowledge to ask."

Chang Xi stabilized her figure and turned her head to show a dry smile.

"That's right. Only after seeing different books do I realize my lack of knowledge. I think hard work can make up for my lack of knowledge."

Cao Jingxiu raised his eyebrows, but did not express his opinion on these words.

He just said: "Bring it here." Seeing that Chang Xi didn't move a single step.

He frowned and added: "What don't you understand, let me teach you."

Chang Xi bit her lips unnaturally. She felt that the atmosphere between herself and Cao Jingxiu had become twisted since she didn't know when.

When she was still hesitating, Cao Jingxiu was impatient.

He took the initiative to move, walked to her side, and took out the book.

It is full of notes, writing and drawing, a brand new book, it looks like a worn-out book when opened.

Cao Jingxiu's deep voice was right next to his ears: "What don't you understand?"

"Well, it's here."

Chang Xi still stretched out his finger, Cao Jingxiu's expression softened a bit, he snatched the work of the master with a few words, and the master quietly drank tea and watched them.

Cao Jingxiu said seriously, and Chang Xi and the others listened carefully.

Just listening to it is not enough, and there is a school test in the back, and I have really mastered it. When I got the approval, Chang Xi seemed to have gone through a hard battle.

Cao Jingxiu's requirements are quite high. What he requires is that after learning, he can draw inferences from one instance to another. To have such understanding, it must be based on solid knowledge.

It can be said that Cao Jingxiu is really teaching knowledge.

As long as a person is serious, he will become as terrifying as a monster, making people want to run away.

Chang Xi wanted to run away now, and standing up with the low-pressure, calm and serious him, Chang Xi felt that he was going to be out of breath.

Chang Xi also released his slightly trembling aura, which made the three brothers of the Chang family fearful at the same time. They felt that after Mr. Cao was admitted as a scholar, he became an unattainable mountain.

In the past, their distance was neither close nor far. If there were not many accidents, the two of them might not have social relations for the rest of their lives.

But things turned into something they couldn't imagine, because Xibao was so powerful, so there were too many things entangled with each other, and their relationship was so close that they were close at hand.

But today, even on the day of receiving the gift, I don't know what Cao Jingxiu thought, but the mentality of everyone in the Chang family has undergone a subtle change.

It seems that there is no longer between them, the distance between the soul can be touched with one arm.

Chang Ping took the lead, bringing Chang An and Chang Le to bow very politely.

It is full of respect among scholars, and the younger generation respects the older generation.

"We understand this piece of knowledge, and I just took up Cao Xiucai's time, and I feel very sorry."

After Chang Ping finished speaking, he looked away, took a deep look at his sister who hadn't said a word, and opened the corners of his mouth again.

"Master, Cao Xiucai, let's take our leave first."

People who have read the book began to speak in a polite manner, Chang Xi's sleeve was pulled, she honestly hugged the book, and left with her elder brother and younger brother.

Seeing the backs of their brothers and sisters running away in a panic, Cao Jingxiu clenched his fists imperceptibly.

Just getting along a little bit just now, he can feel the distance that has been opened, and there seems to be more estrangement between them out of thin air.

what is it then?

He was only away for more than a month, what happened during his absence?
Cao Jingxiu wanted to chase him out and ask him, but he suddenly changed his attitude towards him, acting so alienated like an ordinary friend, why?
After chasing him under the paulownia tree, he called the four people in front of him to stop.

Chang Xi stopped walking on the spot, looking back in surprise, waiting for him to say something.

Cao Jingxiu opened his mouth, but his voice was tense as the words were on his lips.

Just as he was about to make a sound after brewing a full belly, an abrupt shout from his cousin sounded.

Zhao Jia was still wearing a red dress, and she stood awkwardly at the gate of the village school.Looking inward, the body and footsteps are still outside the threshold.

She is like a kitten who got lost and strayed into someone else's territory by mistake.

The uneasy and innocent appearance, coupled with exquisite facial features and bright dress, is the brightest bright red in winter.

It's completely different from Chang Xi who is calm and composed, with a hint of sadness on his eyebrows. Now Chang Xi is like snow on red plums. The warm fragrance is blown away by the wind, and it is soaked in a faint cold fragrance, which is easy to dissipate and melt.

As if seeing a savior, Zhao Jia jumped in when he first saw Cao Jingxiu.

Can't wait to hide under her cousin's wings, her delicate voice has a hint of grievance.

"Fortunately, I met my cousin!"

"Cousin, you don't know. I was just wandering around the village. I didn't expect many men to come and talk to me."

"They are so enthusiastic, I am afraid. Cousin, can you take me home?"

The little girl begged delicately, but Cao Jingxiu didn't say what he was going to say, and turned to comfort the frightened cousin.

"Jiajia don't need to be afraid, they are all simple villagers, and they have no malicious intentions."

Not only did Zhao Jia not look relaxed, but instead he put his arms around Cao Jingxiu's arm, and his body naturally clung to Cao Jingxiu's. Cao Jingxiu moved uncomfortably, but did not break free.

Zhao Jia begged softly: "Cousin, can you take me back? I only trust you."

Her big watery eyes were already filled with tears, and she looked helpless, making anyone who saw her want to help her.

But in Chang Xi's eyes, he felt very familiar.

In the later generations, one of the vicious female supporting roles, the tea art master, approached the men step by step and took them down.

Chang Xi calmed her troubled heart, and she spoke first.

"Since everyone is going home, let's part here."
