Chapter 13

Early the next morning.

A man in a yellow gown with a cloth bag between his hands walked lightly into the simple house.

"I only have one request, and that is for you to remember the above words, write them down, and read them to me!"

Lu Changsheng stood in the room, looking at the 'master student' in front of him.

"How old is the master? Why is the student so old?"

There was a faint voice in the ears, but when the middle-aged man had a straight face, no one dared to talk anymore.

The house was empty, and these 'students' people stood in a circle.

Without pen, ink, paper and inkstone, there is no place to sit.

Everyone stood quietly with serious expressions.

The words written by the middle-aged man were impressively one of the 168 characters Lu Changsheng wrote down.

"It turns out that this is a pile!"

Suddenly, I was extremely excited.

It was a long-awaited harvest pleasure.

"That's a bit much!"

Not long after, the middle-aged man suddenly came to his senses, stopped a half-written text on the wooden board, and sat down on a chair to rest.

"A total of 25 characters!"

Lu Changsheng looked a little disappointed when he saw the middle-aged man stop.

in the afternoon.

The middle-aged man picked up the board, walked up to a boy, pointed to the words on it and asked, "How do you pronounce this word?"

The boy hesitated and couldn't speak, so he continued to walk towards the next person with a straight face.

"You come and read!"

"May?"

"It's panic!"

Go to the next one.

The boy had memorized the pronunciation of 'panic', but unfortunately, when the middle-aged man pointed to another word, he was suddenly confused.

This time, instead of continuing to read, he walked up to another little girl.

"What does this word read?"

"rain!"

"It's really—huh?"

The middle-aged man froze for a moment, then glanced at the little girl intently.

"Good! What's your name?"

"Pumpkin Lee!"

The middle-aged man stopped talking and asked a few more people before putting away the board and walking back.

"That's the end of this class!" He said and walked out.

On the first day of studying, Lu Changsheng straightened out the 25 characters.

While eating, Liang Hu came over carrying a large bag of steamed buns.

A boy from the Zhao family thought it was for them to eat, and since he was hungry, he went to get it.

No, a stick hit the back of his hand.

Liang Hu put his hands on his hips and kept shaking, with the corner of his mouth slightly tilted, "What are you doing? You guys, look at you, how do you look like a scholar? How can you read and write like this? What a bitch!"

After cursing, he pressed a stick on the steamed bun.

"Two copper coins and one steamed bun! Master is not a good person. Teaching you to read and write, and providing you with a place to live is an eye-opening! If you want to eat, you can buy it with copper coins!"

The Zhao family boy glared at Zhao Hu.

This person's name is Zhao Liang, and he is also a childlike figure in Zhaojia Village, but he doesn't like to associate with people with foreign surnames such as Lu Changsheng and Wang Heihou.

The anger in my heart was not because of the need to pay, but because Liang Hu's actions were too insulting.

"Haha, you look like you have a bad temper!"

There was a ruthless look on Liang Hu's face, he took two steps forward and grabbed Zhao Liang's clothes.

He was over thirty and in his prime, while Zhao Liang was only in his early [-]s. How could he have any room for resistance?

It was brought up directly.

Seeing a hint of fear on Zhao Liang's face, Liang Hu frowned slightly.

"If you weren't—"

He seemed to realize that he had made a mistake, so he quickly closed his mouth and let go of Zhao Liang.

"This is the master's rule. If you can't accept it, go back!" He shook his head and said.

······
"I lost four copper coins, and there are 50 more! It can last for ten days!"

Lu Changsheng did not get involved in the affairs of Zhao Liang and Liang Hu.

I directly paid for two meals of steamed buns.

Seeing that he bought two, Wang Heihou and the others also bought two.

"Changsheng, his steamed buns are a little expensive. I remember that the steamed buns in the town are only a copper coin!"

Wang Heihou ate one steamed bun and looked at the other one with unfinished thoughts, but when he saw that Lu Changsheng and the others didn't move, he gave up this tempting idea.

"Maybe things in Fucheng are more expensive!" Lu Changsheng said.

"How much money do you guys have left?"

This question is more private.

At their age, even if they don’t understand, the adults in the family will tell them in advance.

But Lu Changsheng needs to see if the three people in front of him really trust him.

"This is the initial stage, investment also needs to find someone you can trust!"

If they are unwilling, then their plans must be changed.

Fortunately, among the three, only Wang Heihou hesitated, but seeing that the other two had said it, he still said it.

Pumpkin Lee has 38 Coppers!
Niu Dazhuang is 90!
Wang Heihou has the most and has 150 coppers on his body.

Lu Changsheng knew it in his heart.

Wang Heihou's family situation is better, and this time the family gave more coppers.

Niu Dazhuang and Li Nangua have similar family circumstances as their own, but the situation is also different.

Li Nangua's family basically treats her in a semi-stocking state, and it is considered generous to give her more than 40 coppers.

Niu Dazhuang only has an old mother and an older brother left in his family. The older brother has a deep relationship with him. If he comes out this time, he may wipe out all the family wealth.

As for Lu Changsheng, he gave a part of it as a gift before, and later, when he got engaged, he also gave a part of it.

Therefore, the difference in copper between several people is so huge.

"In the end, it was Zhao Xinghua who killed her!"

Lu Changsheng sighed in his heart.

"Let's read all the characters first! Let's see if we can find something to do!"

Under normal circumstances, teaching a group of illiterate people to read and read more than twenty words would probably require repeated teaching many times.

And Mr. Bai Tian just wrote it down and asked them to read and write.

Only Lu Changsheng himself could follow this kind of teaching.

Sure enough, the next day, Mr. wrote another line of words on the wooden board.

I taught the reading method, the writing method and the meaning of the word once.

Before leaving, the test will be carried out according to the appearance of yesterday.

I asked several people in a row but couldn't get the answer.

The 'Master's student' looked displeased, but he didn't say anything, it was just that the expressions of the boys who had been named were full of despondency, obviously, they had been hit hard.

"Sir, you are so strict!"

"That's right! If you hadn't learned to read from Changsheng for a while, I'm afraid you will be scolded this time!"

In the evening, several people got together.

Lu Changsheng gave them a small prescription to read and write.

Hearing this, he nodded and said, "Sir, being strict is a good thing, so that we will be more motivated when we are under pressure!"

Wang Heihou muttered a few words, suppressed his irritability, and practiced calligraphy with a stick.

A group of people are all striving to recognize more characters. If they can't become the master's student, they can use this ability to find a job.

but--

"This thing always feels a bit strange!"

Lu Changsheng recalled Liang Hu's behavior and felt that it was not like an ordinary person.

"If the master really wants to pick students, it is impossible to find such people!"

No one can discuss this matter, so Lu Changsheng can only take it to heart for the time being.

"Anyway, I can indeed read characters here. Even if it's a game, as long as there is no danger to life, it's not a big deal!"

Lu Changsheng thought.
