After hearing these words, Gu Erzhu, Liu Shi, Gu Erlang and Gu Baoya, as well as Ma Shan, who rushed to the kitchen and only heard the end of the words, were all satisfied and relieved.

It's getting late.

The whole family helped each other, carrying bags, books, lanterns, braziers, and food boxes, and immediately went back to their rooms to rest.

Send everyone away and return to the small hall.

"what time is it now?"

When he stayed at Zhou Xiucai's house, he focused entirely on his studies. Except for New Year's Day, there was no watchman in the village on weekdays, so Gu Wenxuan didn't even know what time it was.

This question can be solved by Zhou Banxia.

At this time, she and her husband were the only ones in the west wing room, so there was no need to secretly glance at the time on the alarm clock, but they still chimed in quietly.

"Ten fifty-two, almost eleven o'clock."

Gu Wenxuan secretly said, "Fortunately, I thought it was twelve o'clock now.

It must have been less than six o'clock when I went there tonight, and the old man had been staying in the study. "

Zhou Banxia was surprised: "That means he has been teaching you for four or five hours?"

Gu Wenxuan laughed. He was referring to the fact that he had gained a lot tonight. Fortunately, he did not decide to study behind closed doors first. Unexpectedly, his wife's focus suddenly shifted.

"There is a break in the middle. The flow of the class is similar to when we were in school. After we talk about how to do the questions, we will explain them. I will do the questions and he will have a rest.

It shouldn't be past nine o'clock tomorrow night. Let me have a good rest tonight. I will start assigning homework tomorrow night and bring it to school early the next morning. You can do the math. "

What the heck, I have to assign homework every night before I come back and hand it in the next morning. I can be a god and don’t have to sleep, and I can also use it to figure out when I’ll be back tomorrow night.

In addition to the content of the classroom lectures during the day, there will definitely be explanations on the assigned homework in the evening classes.

This is not just one or two days, but only two days off every month.

hiss.

The college entrance examination again.

Can you stand it?

Definitely.

There are no endless PPTs to finish, no endless reports to write, and no endless meetings to hold.

I don’t have to lead my team on business trips every now and then, I don’t have to get involved, and I don’t have to think about how to please my boss. My job shouldn’t be too easy~

Zhou Banxia's mouth twitched, "Eat yours."

"where to?"

"Shit." I disgust you so much that you imitate my words in a weird way! "When you're done eating, put it on the table for me to clean up. Don't drink that yellow thing without finishing it."

"Just be bad." Gu Wenxuan saw that the millet porridge on the table was no longer fragrant. Well, he was no longer thirsty. "What did you do tonight?"

Too much.

Putting aside the trivial matters at home, your mother and my mother-in-law have learned three ways to play Luo Zi, which can be regarded as overfulfilling tonight's task.

But you have already talked about the wheel, and you have no time to talk about it at the top of your voice.

Hurry up and finish your midnight snack, then go to bed!

wrong!

"Do you want to sort out your notes before going to bed tonight?"

"need."

In the study, Zhou Banxia put down the oil lamp, put the book bag he was carrying on the desk by the window, found two candles and inserted them into the candlesticks on the desk to light them. Turn around and push the charcoal plate in the corner closer to the desk, then take out the foot stove, "take" the silver frost charcoal and add it, and use the iron drill to stir up the charcoal fire.

Gu Wenxuan ate his late-night snack three times, packed up the dishes and put them back in the food box. When he came in, he saw Zhou Banxia quickly adding charcoal to the foot stove.

What was added was not the charcoal saved in the kitchen stove. Of course, the charcoal was definitely far inferior to the silver bone charcoal. If the windows were not opened even a crack, the smoke would make people dizzy.

But the winter night was extremely cold. The windows were slightly opened, and wisps of cold wind penetrated into the room. It didn't take a cup of tea, but all the heat inside was gone.

Seeing that Zhou Banxia had already added the charcoal, Gu Wenxuan wasted no time and took out the books, paper and pen from his bag, poured some water into the inkstone and used the ink stick to grind the ink.

Zhou Banxia was not idle when he saw this. He went out of the study and took the oil lamp from the small hall back to the inner room, added firewood to the kang hole, and then went up to the clean room to enter the space.

He added fodder and water to the mule that was staying in the dark yard, touched the head of this mule who had contributed a lot, and coaxed it to go out to have fun soon.

My friend is very obedient and easy to trick.

Unlike the original two chickens, one big and one small, they were so unhygienic that they had to be eliminated.

After washing and changing clothes, I then played with the embroidery stand that I "touched" in. As I was playing with it, the alarm clock suddenly screamed, and the final version of the scaled-up work on the base fabric was not yet completed.

Pity.

The painting is interesting, I can only wait until tomorrow to continue.

Use a lighter to light the oil lamp, then go out and put down the embroidery frame, touch the kang surface, it is very hot, put the pillows, spread out the quilt, pack up and go to the study.

The desk was filled with four or five open books. Gu Wenxuan was busy taking notes, so engrossed that he didn't even notice Zhou Banxia had come in.

Big brother, it’s almost twelve o’clock.

"Whoo~"

You're awake now! Zhou Banxia came closer and stretched out his neck to take a look. He thought it was pretty good. There were no alterations and the structure of the pavilion was straight. "Is it finished?"

"Yes, madam, what time is it now?" Gu Wenxuan moved his sore right arm, twisted his neck, and then stretched and stood up.

"Three minutes to twelve o'clock."

"I'm great. I can just do it myself. Is the time accurate?" As he said that, Gu Wenxuan quickly cleaned the two brushes that were soaked in the brush wash.

After I finished, I didn't even tidy up the books spread out on the desk. Even the ink on the papers that hadn't dried yet was pressed down with paper weights, waiting to be sorted out in the morning.

Zhou Banxia's eyes didn't pay much attention to his little movements. When he saw a piece of cooked rice paper placed on the kang table, it was somewhat expected that it was indeed a plan.

To be precise, it was a ten-day schedule. The densely packed small prints arranged all the study tasks for the next ten days and ten nights. It was really frustrating.

Calculating the time silently, fortunately, she could maintain five or six hours of sleep, so she stopped talking nonsense. If you say one more word, the topic will be changed and the rest will be delayed.

"I checked on the way back. People's energy is limited. Master will give me private lessons for at most half a month. Next, I should go there every other night."

Zhou Banxia guessed that it would be the same. It would be the first day of December in three days, and at most it would be the night before the New Year's Eve. One-on-one private lessons would stop.

Nowadays, there is no ordinary emphasis on the New Year's Day. According to her father, her sixth grandfather and his son have no time to teach during the five days before and after New Year's Eve every year.

Opening ancestral halls, worshiping ancestors, meeting friends, visiting relatives, and other things. Anyway, there are many activities. Neither the old Zhou family nor Qinghe Village can do without her sixth grandfather, an old scholar.

"As for me, I have gone through all the test questions in the past years. As long as I have a thorough understanding of the Four Books and Five Classics and am familiar with the art of making, I should be qualified to be a scholar.

In the short term, if I memorize more collections of essays, I can almost specialize in production after the year. I just need to write a few more articles and send them to him for correction every now and then.

I don’t want you to be tired, maybe you can specialize in crafts not after the new year, but before the new year.

Sleep peacefully, I know it in my heart, but I really don’t know. I haven’t discussed it with you, right? "

"Yes, sleep."
