Chapter 46

Xiaoxun didn't know how long he had been running, it seemed that he had been running for only a few seconds, and it seemed that he had been running for hours. He could no longer distinguish the passage of time, and he just wanted to hurry to Zheng Dongyang's house.

Zheng Dongyang's house was full of laughter at this time.

"Me! Zheng Dongyang! I didn't expect to have such a blessing in this life!"

Zheng Dongyang was reeking of alcohol, and his standing was a little unsteady. He propped the table with one hand, held a small wine glass in the other, and made a clinking gesture to the people at the same table: "Come, today, today we If you don't get drunk, you won't return!"

He has a low drinking capacity, and he would never drink like this in the past, and a few glasses of light rice wine is the limit.

But today he is very happy, even happier than when he won the praise of Xuezheng in his childhood!
Sitting around the same table with him were Old Man Cen, Xiao Ruo and Xiao Niao Xiao Zhao.

Old man Cen's cheeks were also flushed, and he drank a lot today, he stood up staggeringly as soon as he slapped the table, and was about to clink glasses with Zheng Dongyang with his wine cup.

"If you don't get drunk, you don't go home! I knew my old man was right! I was right about the young one, and I was right about the old one!" The hand holding the wine cup trembled a little, and the mellow wine spilled on his gray beard , he didn't care.

Xiaoruo looked at the two old men who were happily going crazy with alcohol, shook her head and didn't try to stop her, she just urged: "Old man, Senior Zheng, you two should drink less, you will have a headache when you wake up tomorrow!"

This matter is indeed worthy of celebration, and it is natural for the two old men to be successful. If she hadn't had to take care of the two old ones and the two young ones, she would also like to have a few drinks to be happy!

It was at this time that Xiaoxun pushed the door open and entered, his eyes were red, his temples were disheveled, he was holding on to the door frame and gasping for breath, which shocked Xiaoruo.

She put down her chopsticks and quickly stepped forward to support Xiaoxun and asked, "Axun, what's wrong with you? When did you come back?"

She could feel Xiaoxun's arm muscles under her palm pulsating up and down, and his body was trembling slightly due to violent running or other reasons.

Xiaoxun couldn't speak, he ran too fast, the wind that choked into his throat caused a fishy-sweet taste to come out of his mouth, and the rapidly expanding lung lobes were protesting to him.

Xiaoruo's soft little hands ran along his back from top to bottom, helping him to relax.

"Huh...huh...me, I got home just now...huh...you are all...not here...huh...I thought something happened to you!" He said with difficulty.

"Axun? Is it Axun?" The old man Cen was drunk and blurred, narrowing his eyes and trying to focus. "Come, come, Axun also come to have a drink! Let's celebrate Zhao Zhao together!"

"Celebrate... wish?" After Xiaoruo's stroking, Xiaoxun's lungs finally did not feel the pain that was about to explode. Xiao Zhao.

"The old man is drunk, ignore him, come and drink a glass of water." Xiao Ruo helped Xiao Xun to sit down at the table, poured him a glass of warm water and said, "It's a long story, I'll talk to you slowly. explain."

In Xiaoruo's narration, Xiaoxun finally understood what happened.

The matter started on the third day after he left, when Xiaozhao went to study at Zheng Dongyang's house as usual.

The second son of the Xiao family is smart. The father of the Xiao family had already taught his siblings to recognize characters and read sentences. Xiao Zhao also finished reading enlightenment books such as "The Analects of Confucius", "Zhu Zi's Family Instructions", and "Zeng Guang Xian Wen". Zheng Dongyang began to teach them on weekdays. His four books, five character six rhyme and other further knowledge.

On this day, Zheng Dongyang specifically asked him to review one day in advance, and to take the school exam tomorrow.On the way back to the Tzu Chi Hall, Xiaozhao was thinking all the way, so absorbed in his thoughts that he bumped into someone without noticing.

The one who was hit was an eleven or twelve year old boy, a full head taller than Xiaozhao.The young man only staggered and took a step back after being hit, but Xiaozhao fell hard on his buttocks.

"Ouch!" The boy let out a false wail.

Then three teenagers around his age surrounded him and chatted away.

"Zilu, are you alright?"

"Where did you come from, you don't have eyes when you walk?!"

"Isn't this the little dwarf in the medical center! Let your sister treat your bad eyes first, so as not to run around in the street!"

Xiaozhao knew he was wrong, so he quickly got up from the ground, patted the dust off his buttocks, bowed to several people and said, "I accidentally bumped into you just now, Xiaozhao hereby apologizes to you."

"Apologize? Then you will pay!"

"Oh, don't make things difficult for him. I heard that he has no father or mother. He probably won't have any money to pay for it!"

"Hahahaha, that's right, I worshiped that old boy Zheng Dongyang as a teacher because I had no money, hahahaha~"

Several teenagers spoke sarcastically and laughed together.

Hearing them mention his mentor and parents in such a tone, Xiaozhao understood that these people did not meet by chance, and most likely they were here waiting for him to bump into them on purpose.

Gritting his teeth, his baby's fat face looked rounder, and he said angrily, "Gentlemen are harmonious but different, villains are the same but not harmonious! Please get out of the way, I'm going home!"

The boy who was bumped raised his eyebrows, took a step forward and pushed Xiaozhao violently, cursing: "Who are you calling a villain! Did we say something wrong? It's because your family is poor that they can't afford to hire talented people to be teachers." !"

Several other people also spoke on the sidelines.

"That's right! Our mentors are all Wang Xiucai, so it doesn't look like you can only find a child student!"

"What Tongsheng, old man Zheng can't take the imperial examination in this life, I think calling Tongsheng has defiled the saint!"

"Can Tong Sheng compare with a scholar? Don't even weigh how much he is!"

Xiaozhao was pushed so hard that he fell a solid buttock, the pain was so painful that he was about to burst into tears.

At this moment, an old man slowly walked out from the side.His thin, gray hair was tied into a small bun on the top of his head, he was wearing an elegant apricot-white literati gown, and he was shaking a landscape fan with the inscription Wang Enqing on it.

The old man squinted at Xiao Zhao who was pushed to the ground, coughed and said in a fake way: "Zi Lu, Zi Gong, Zi Zhang, Zi Qi, you can't say that."

The old man is Wang Xiucai, the mentor of the four teenagers.

He had long heard that there was a clever boy in the Shangxi Town Medical Center, but when his family was looking for a mentor for him, they bluntly said that he was not worthy of this talent, and finally found Zheng Dongyang to be the boy's mentor.

After knowing this, he was so angry that he couldn't eat for three days.

When he was young, this Zheng Dongyang dominated him everywhere. Although Zheng Dongyang was the youngest among the students studying at the same time, he was very popular with his master. Zheng Dongyang was always the first and the second in the essays he wrote in the school.Later, when he participated in the provincial examination together, he was almost beaten by Zheng Dongyang. Fortunately, someone reported that Zheng Dongyang was deprived of his qualifications for the scientific examination because of his birth.

Who knew that at this age, he could still be overwhelmed by Zheng Dongyang!
Wang Xiucai saw that Xiaozhao stood up straight again enduring the pain, waved his fan and said to Xiaozhao kindly: "My disciple didn't mean to argue with you, just don't worry about it, kid."

Xiaozhao's heart is like a mirror, he wiped away the tears from the pain, bowed to Wang Xiucai and said, "The dispute belongs to both sides, it was not a dispute just now, since you are their mentor, then you can just discipline them. I am a junior, so naturally there is no need to care about it."

What an eloquent kid!The corners of Wang Xiucai's eyes twitched, he understood that Xiaozhao meant that he had no way to teach his disciples, and he allowed his disciples to cause trouble first.

"Okay, little boy, your teacher is Zheng Dongyang, right? Go back and tell your teacher that I may not have seen him for a long time. I will visit you tomorrow and talk to your teacher about the old schoolmate friendship." Wang Xiucai waved a folding fan and pretended to be Said gently.

He wants to take a good look, this Zheng Dongyang has not entered a private school for so many years and has no scientific examinations, what can he teach this child!
