Is my wife farming today?

Chapter 14 Doing nothing but doing everything
  Now that she's done with the serious business, Xie Xin plans to study hard for two days at Taixue, and by the way, she can brush up on her mother's favorability.

After returning from busy work in the village yesterday, she rushed home without stopping, but she was still a step late.

Xie Shen caught him skipping school again, and even found someone to copy books. It was also exposed.

Xie Shen was so angry that he gritted his teeth and punished her by kneeling in the ancestral hall for two more hours.

So much so that it was a bit difficult for me to climb onto the carriage today.

Chen Yao just got off her carriage and saw that Xie Xie was moving in step by step like a crab, and she laughed so hard that she fell on her back.

"I heard from my mother that Mr. Dugu came to your door in person yesterday to correct and copy your books?"

decline:"……"

Chen Yao clicked her tongue and said, "Why didn't Mr. Dugu punish me? Is it possible that he was interested in me?"

He refused to look at her, "Didn't you look in the mirror when you went out?"

Chen Yao: "..."

Then he supported Xie Xie and walked to the school. They were hit hard from behind by someone on the way. They both almost fell over. When they looked back, they saw it was Zhang Xiao, the fourth daughter of the prime minister's family.

"Hey, who do I think you are? It turns out to be the majestic second lady of the General's Mansion."

Xie despaired and looked at Zhang Xiao, who was dressed in green and looked like dough.

There was a person beside Zhang Xiao. He was not tall and had a bit of ruthlessness in his eyes. She had a deep impression on this person. It was said that his name was Tian Qi. Her mother was Tongzhiro, an attendant to the princess, so Tian Qi He has been raised by the concubine's side since he was a child. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the concubine's sword.

Chen Yao naturally remembered her, "Okay, when will the children of even sixth-rank officials in Taixue be able to enroll in school?"

Tian Qi remained silent, but Zhang Xiao retorted, "You should take care of yourself. Master Censor's face has almost been lost by you, how can you still have time to mind other people's business?"

After saying that, he looked at Xie Yu and said, "I heard that Miss Xie Er is obsessed with farming recently. What? Are you trying to help your mother get used to the day when she is disbanded and returns to the fields?"

"Well said, Luo Yi, you must tell Miss Zhang Si's words to your mother word for word." Chen Yao patted her shoulder, looking like she wanted to cut off Zhang Xiao's tongue and drink it.

He declined with a smile but not a smile, "Isn't it just that the husband you like was kicked out of the yard by me? Why would you make trouble for me for such a small thing? If Si Niang likes it, wouldn't it be a good time to take him to your yard now? "

A few months ago, a young man whom Zhang Xiao had been thinking about expressed his admiration for Xie Xie in public, and was taken to the hospital to be raised by her overnight. This incident made Zhang Xiao so angry that he got drunk for several months. Every time he mentioned Xie Xie, he always said: He looked so annoyed that he wanted to peel off his skin and get cramps.

Now that it has finally passed, it is mentioned again.

Zhang Xiao's face suddenly turned ugly. If Tian Qi hadn't stopped her at the right time, he would have pounced on her and tore her mouth apart.

"Okay, okay, this is the Xie Er I know!" Chen Yao couldn't help but shout "ok."

Suddenly, someone from behind shouted, "The master is here."

Chen Yao suddenly remembered, "Oh no, I forgot today is the day of assessment! Let's go." Then he grabbed Xie Xie and ran away. Xie Xie kept "hissing" as he ran into the hall.

The Taifu was originally the emperor's teacher, and later assisted the eldest daughter in her studies. Due to poor health, after the Taixue was opened in Beijing, he served as the teacher of the "Book of Rites". Later, his illness became serious, and he was only responsible for daily teaching. Monthly assessment.

Everyone knows the name of Taifu.

There was silence in the hall, except for the sound of people writing furiously and flipping through books.

After a while, Dugu Xi slightly supported a middle-aged woman with gray temples and walked in. She was wearing a simple crow-blue Confucian uniform. She was slightly fat and had a kind face. Although she was not wearing official uniform, she was not looked down upon. Half a point.

"In order to assess your recent academic performance, please use 'Inaction' as the topic."    "Governing by inaction" advocated by Laozi in the "Tao Te Ching" refers to natural inaction, which is the most important concept in Laozi's philosophy one.

Of course, this nature does not refer to the natural world in the 21st century, but "man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature."

"Who will answer first?"

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was silent, and no one dared to answer.

Even Jiang Wanwan, who had always taken notes the most diligently, lowered her head so hard that she wanted to bury her head under the table.

Suddenly, Zhang Xiao took the lead and raised his hand, "Master Taifu, according to the students, it is better to take the test first, Miss Xie Er, who is famous for her lack of knowledge and skills in our school. If she can learn well, the others can also There’s no need to take the exam.”

Dugu Jin coughed a few times and sat down on the Taishi chair in front of the hall. After hearing this, he just glanced at the people in the back row to refuse, and then said: "Zhang Xiao, since you have raised your hand, you must be confident, so why not start with you? .”

Zhang Xiao gritted his teeth, but still did not forget to dig a hole for her.

"My master, I don't know. Just before you arrived, Xie Er made a bold statement to me and Tian Qi, saying that we would be the first to answer the question today, and that we were confident that you would be satisfied with the compliment. It's hard for a student to steal her limelight, right?" .”

Fuck your mother's stinky fart!

Xie Xie cursed hard in his heart.

This guy is so shameless and nasty! Sure enough, she is exactly the same as her mother and I.

Everyone in the capital doesn't know that the Taifu has traveled all over the world and is very talented. He is also famous for being strict with his students. Her son is the number one son in Kyoto and has not received a word of praise from her. Who deserves a word of praise from her?

The Taifu asked: "Luo Yi, are you talking nonsense?"

Luo is the small word for declined.

He declined and stood up, and bowed slowly, "The student never said anything like this. It's just that Miss Zhang Si has already mentioned the student's name, so it doesn't hurt to answer first."

"Okay." Dugu Jin's eyes flashed with appreciation, and he coughed a few times excitedly.

"What the students think of is the most holy saying of the sage Lao Tzu, 'Governing by doing nothing.' Everything in the world is born from existence, and existence is born from nothingness. Everything is done without hesitation. Born without being, done without relying on it, accomplished without living. . I feel like I have no place to live, so I won’t go.”

"Therefore, students believe that everything should be allowed to take its course, without any self-interested behavior, and allowed to develop freely, such as fame, wealth, power, knowledge, or character."

He declined and glanced at Zhang Xiao, "What's mine is mine, and students who are not mine will not force it. This is nothing but doing nothing. Making it up out of thin air and doing it deliberately like Miss Zhang Si is contrary to the teachings of the sages. His behavior is definitely not that of a gentleman."

If this is not the behavior of a gentleman, then he is calling her a villain.

Zhang Xiao was so angry that he wanted to beat someone.

Unexpectedly, after listening to what Xie Xie said, the Taifu remained silent for a long time and muttered something thoughtfully.

After a long time, the Taifu clapped his hands and stood up, "Okay, what a person who does nothing but does everything. That's very well said. If you can have such philosophical thinking and debate, your mother will be very happy for you if she knows about it."

As soon as the conversation changed, Dugujin's eyes fell on Zhang Xiao, "Zhang Xiao, it's your turn."

Zhang Xiao expected that she would not be able to answer the question, so she dared to come forward rashly. Who would have thought that she could actually answer it, and her answer was so satisfactory to her husband? If Zhang Xiao didn't answer, wouldn't it mean that he would admit in public that it would be better for her to decline, or even worse than her? Learn nothing.

For a moment, Zhang Xiao's face turned red and white, and he was so embarrassed that he couldn't get off the stage.

　Zhang Xiao: Just wait, we are not done yet!

　　Decline: Why can’t we get over the matter of a mere hustle?
