Back to the marriage proposal, helping the incompetent husband to rise to the top

Chapter 297: Collecting Rock Honey

Chu Shengxi read out the titles of the books: "Lin'an Scenery", "Local Strange Stories", "Travels around the World"... "

Ye Wanqing met several puzzled looks and said slowly, "I am a new teacher and I don't know how to impart knowledge to you.

I have thought about it for a long time, and what you need to learn has already been taught by the teachers of the Imperial College.

However, considering that you have been lazy in your studies in the Imperial College over the years, there must be many things that you have only learned superficially, so what I can do is to fill in the gaps.

In addition, during the travels, I teach by combining what I have seen and heard along the way with the culture of the scholars..."

The six people sat upright with their eyes wide open, afraid of missing anything.

After Ye Wanqing finished speaking, Chu Shengxi spoke: "Master..."

Ye Wanqing interrupted him: "Just call me like before."

Chu Shengxi changed his address and said, "Princess, how do we arrange our schoolwork? Will we still have endless homework to copy every day like in the Imperial College?
If that happens, I’ll go crazy.”

Ye Wanqing narrowed her eyes and said, "Don't you like your studies?"

Except for Gu Chen, the other five people nodded in unison.

“Who likes doing homework?”

"The homework assigned by the teacher in the Imperial College is never finished!"

"Isn't it? Every ancient text must be memorized, copied, and then written out... I'm stupid and have a bad memory, don't even mention how painful it is to learn."

"..."

The chirping sound echoed throughout the study.

Ye Wanqing listened and wrote down everything with a pen.

At the end, she said gently, "I will reduce your homework as appropriate.

However, you still need to memorize the text.

However, I will try to find a way to make you less resistant and remember the most information in the easiest way..."

Time flies.

Ye Wanqing spent the entire morning communicating and interacting with six "students".

As noon approached, she put away her books and said, "From now on, lectures will begin at 3 p.m. every afternoon. If you have anything to say, please let me know in advance.

If there are other arrangements, I will inform you one day in advance.

This afternoon, let's start by reviewing the Four Books and Five Classics. Review the books for an hour and a half, and practice calligraphy for half an hour..."

Fully arranged.

The first day was relatively easy.

In the evening, after taking a bath, Ye Wanqing sat in front of the desk, and Chu Anlan rubbed her shoulders: "If you are tired, go to sleep, right?"

Ye Wanqing raised her eyes: "Are you bored when I'm lecturing?"

"It's not boring." Chu Anlan lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips: "When you lecture, you quote classics and tell many stories, which is very interesting.

The teachers in the Imperial College only read from the books, explain them once, and that’s it.”

"No more?" Ye Wanqing asked.

Chu Anlan smiled and said, "If you don't believe it, you can call Chen Xi to ask, or ask Gu Chen?

I saw that they listened very attentively today. After school, they were even discussing the stories you told while walking.

I have never seen them love studying so much before.”

Ye Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, let's keep working hard tomorrow."

"Let's talk about tomorrow's matter tomorrow." Chu Anlan pulled her sleeve and said, "You haven't been with me for several days.

I woke up in the middle of the night and the bed was cold, and I woke up in the morning and the bed was cold too.”

Ye Wanqing glanced at the time: "I have to get up early tomorrow..."

"Then make up for your sleep in the afternoon!" Chu Anlan bent down and picked her up, weighing her in his arms: "You've lost weight."

Ye Wanqing put her arms around his neck and said, "Your Highness has grown taller again."

"I've not only grown taller, but also grown up, especially..." Chu Anlan leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I'll carry you and try..."

The classes for the next few days went very smoothly. Ye Wanqing had a better understanding of Chu Shengxi and his group.

It’s not that they can’t learn well, it’s just that they don’t know how to learn.

As they said, the teachers in the Imperial College were too rigid and boring when teaching, which led them to resist learning.

Therefore, Ye Wanqing tried her best to make her lessons more interesting every day.

Before long, it was Mid-Autumn Festival.

On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the lake, which had been banned from boats for nearly a month, was finally lifted.

Crabs, fish and shrimps are caught day and night on the lake, which is bustling during the day and lit all night long at night.

After the morning class, Ye Wanqing took her "students" out for an outing in the afternoon to learn about the local customs and people of Lin'an.

The teaching method of half learning and half playing is surprisingly effective.

In addition, the long-pending rock honey collection was also arranged. In short, the activities were particularly fulfilling.

Because of this, the time to go to the next place was delayed for a while.

On the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the carriages and horses from Jindu that came to deliver festival gifts stopped outside the house.

Ye Wanqing was taking a group of people to a lakeside teahouse to drink tea and listen to a lecture by a honey farmer who had been invited to talk about rock honey when the guards from the mansion came hurriedly to look for them.

The guard called her aside and said, "Princess, someone from Jindu has arrived.

Her Royal Highness the Princess sent someone to deliver a festival gift, and the festival gift from the Prince's Palace also arrived. Then, the Prince of Dongping's Palace, the Prince of Guangyang's Palace, and the wife of the Hanlin scholar also sent people to deliver festival gifts. "

Jindu’s festival gift?
Ye Wanqing asked: "Since it is a festival gift from Jindu, just accept it. Then arrange food and accommodation for the visitor so that he can have a good rest. Why did you come to find me specially?"

The guard said, "There are too many of these things. I'm afraid it's difficult to place them in the mansion."

A bit too much stuff?
Ye Wanqing was surprised: "It means a bit more, how much?"

The guard scratched his head and said, "I can't explain it clearly, and the housekeeper can't make arrangements either, so I sent my subordinates to ask the princess."

At this time, Chu Anlan came over while eating melon seeds: "What happened?"

The guard bowed and told the story.

Chu Anlan was surprised: "What kind of things can be so abundant that there is no place to put them?"

The guard said, “There are cloths, clothes for autumn and winter, and even new bedding.

These occupy a relatively large area.

In addition, there are many supplements and medicinal materials...

Her Royal Highness the Princess said that the elders prepared more things because they were worried that the princess, the prince, and the young masters would not be used to it. "

Chu Anlan was shocked when he heard this: "That doesn't necessarily mean so much, does it? Didn't I write in my letters home before that our house is very small?
There are too many things and there is no place to put them.

Instead of giving so many things, it would be better to just give banknotes and silver."

"Prince." Ye Wanqing called him softly, "Those things are the gifts from our elders."

Chu Anlan smiled: "I'm just kidding."

Ye Wanqing thought for a moment and ordered, "Ask Jingchen to give you the key to that unused house and send the things there."

"Is it 'Liuyuan'?" Chu Anlan asked.

Ye Wanqing nodded.

Liuyuan was the house she prepared for Liao Fuyu and Chu Xiaoyan.

Chu Anlan said: "It's better to leave it in Liuyuan. Anyway, we can't take so many with us. We can leave some for Chu Xiaoyan later..."

When he mentioned the name, his voice was much lower and he muttered a little.

Ye Wanqing was a little worried about him: "Prince?"

Chu Anlan looked up and smiled at her: "Speaking of which, the Autumnal Equinox will come a few days after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The case of Prince Duan's treason will be decided in the next two days, right? If it is decided, those who deserve to be beheaded will be dragged away and beheaded after the autumnal equinox."

Ye Wanqing's eyes moved slightly: "Hmm..."

After arranging the guards, Ye Wanqing continued to take the group to listen to the honey farmers talk about the precautions of picking rock honey.

In the evening, she arranged a restaurant, and after dinner she sent someone to send the honey farmer back, gave him a Mid-Autumn Festival gift, and made an appointment to pick rock honey on August 16.
