Saint Immortal Way

Chapter 33 The Book Boy

"It's okay, it's okay. It's okay for my brother to like ancient swords. Now that we have bought everything, what are we going to do in a while? Why don't we go to the shooting hall to practice?" Gu Feng raised his strong bow, Looks eager to try.

It turns out that it has been more than a month since school started today, and the courses have been relatively boring for more than a month. In order to lay a solid foundation for the newly admitted Ding Ke students, the academy only arranges Qi nourishment, meditation, etiquette, essay writing, painting, calligraphy, and music etiquette , arithmetic and other simple basic courses, other more advanced courses such as fencing, archery, fan, ruler, piano, etc. are not arranged in the early stage.

People like Gu Feng, Yu Ming, etc. have long been bored to death. They go back to eat, drink and have fun after school on weekdays. Now they just go to the SHE Art Market. I heard that the SHE Art Market is relatively popular in the academy. There, I saw many brothers and sisters with high morals practicing archery.

"You guys go first. I came here for my exams this morning, and I didn't bring the book boy with me. I have to go back now and bring the book boy out. I'll go directly to the showroom to find you in a while!" Lu Yang said.

"That's fine, then let's take a good seat first, brother brings the book boy over as soon as possible!" Yu Ming laughed.

"Okay!" Lu Yang said goodbye, turned around and left the commercial street, walked up Nanminghu Avenue, crossed Xiaoshui, walked up the small road, walked through the road between peach forest and plum forest, and returned to Huang's courtyard.

"Second Brother Smelly, Second Brother Smelly, you don't ask Jian Jia to come with you when you go to the school, it's really bad..." Lu Jianjia squatted by the stream with a small body, holding a white flour steamed bun in his hand, and a pair of black eyes Staring at the small swimming fish in the stream, he took a bite of steamed buns from time to time.

This morning, she just got up late, and she didn't expect to see Lu Yang when she got up. The reason why she came to the academy was to be Lu Yang's book boy, and she also took this opportunity to study and practice rituals, but she didn't expect I lost my job on the first day.

"I said girl, do you want to curse your second brother, or annoy yourself? Haha, didn't mother say that your second brother is going to take an exam this morning, and he will take you to the school when he comes back. Don't believe me?"

"I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I don't believe it..." Lu Jianjia stood up and kicked the small stone under his feet angrily, causing the stream to splash, and the small fish in the stream scattered in shock.

Lu Yang shook his head and smiled: "Hey, it's really a child's temper. I said girl, it's already noon, you don't have to eat quickly, if your second brother comes back later, I won't let him take you to the school! "

Lu Jianjia pursed her lips angrily, ran into the kitchen quickly, and asked Huang Yiyi's concubine, Mrs. Wu, for a bowl of rice, and sat directly at the dining table in the courtyard to cook the rice quickly.

Lu Yang came in from outside the courtyard cheerfully, and said with a smile, "What, is Miss Jian Jia losing her temper?"

When Lu Jianjia saw Lu Yang coming back, she jumped up immediately, trotted up to greet her with a smile, and said, "No, no, I didn't lose my temper. It's good for the second brother to come back. You must take me to the study hall in a while. Be a book boy!"

Lu Yang lowered her face and shouted: "Girl, with your little temper, it's so easy for a book boy to do? If you don't restrain your little temper, be careful and send you back to Lu Qiu!"

Only then did Lu Jianjia get scared, her face turned pale, and she said aggrievedly: "I know, I will be a good book boy and not lose my temper!"

Lu Yang patted his sister's little head, handed the paper-wrapped beef to Lu Jianjia, and said with a smile, "Understood, I won't let you go back to Lu Qiu, you know, Second Brother still lacks a well-behaved and sensible book boy, so I'm not going to let you go back to Lu Qiu." The errand is none other than yours, and the second brother will take you out in a while..."

Lu Jianjia felt relieved, opened the paper-wrapped beef, put it on the dining table and ate it.

Lu Yang beckoned Lu Yang to sit down at the dining table, and said, "Has my son eaten yet? If he hasn't eaten, there is still a lot of food in the kitchen!"

Huang Yiyi's niece, Mrs. Wu, came out of the kitchen and saw Lu Yang, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Young Master Lu is back, let's have dinner together, and the two young ladies of the Huang family haven't eaten either!"

"No, no, no!" Lu Yang quickly waved his hand: "I've already eaten, ma'am, please invite Senior Sister and Junior Sister first, don't make them wait too long!"

"Okay then, I'll arrange food for the two young ladies first!" The maid smiled.

"Is teacher not here today?" Lu Yang asked quickly.

"Master Huang went to visit friends early this morning, and he probably won't be back in the evening. Hehe, we can't take too much care of Master Huang's affairs. Anyway, Master Huang can't be hungry!" Mrs. Wu, the nanny, hurriedly brought food into the room of the two young ladies of the Huang family. Not to mention the boudoir.

Lu Yang took his mother's hand and said with a smile, "Has mother had lunch yet?"

"Don't worry, my son. I don't see your mother anywhere. Your father and I have eaten just now. Hehe, the little lady of the Huang family has a good temper, and she is very close to me. It's the two of you." The little lady has to practice her homework every day, so I haven't seen her all morning!"

"Well, that's for sure. He is from a scholarly family, and he has to study every day. It is right to study behind closed doors... Well, where is my father?" Lu Yang asked.

"He has already crossed the bridge and went to the nearby woods to catch some hares and golden pheasants. He said he wanted to prepare more game for the Huang family!"

Lu Yang pulled Lu Yang's hand very eagerly, and squeezed Lu Yang's hand very distressed, as if he was afraid that Lu Yang would lose a piece of flesh.

After a long while, she said nervously: "My son, have you passed the exam in the morning? Hehe, your mother and I have been in a state of anxiety since the morning, and my mother's heart is up and down. Although we have Master Huang Rushi's care, after all Master Huang Rushi hasn't shown up yet, has he?"

Lu Yang laughed, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I have already passed the exam!" Lu Yang took Lu Yang's chubby hand, and told about the exam in the morning, and then about his going to the school, Lu Yang and his younger sister Lu Jianjia were very happy.

"Hehe, it turns out that my son has already gone to the school this morning. It's really a blessing. My Lu family has a famous scholar!" Lu Kaitai crossed the small bridge and walked into the courtyard. Hearing Lu Yang's words, he was immediately overjoyed. Self-victory.

Lu Yang went up to greet him, took down the three hares or a few pheasants from Lu Kaitai's hands, and put them into the kitchen. His wife, Wu, was overjoyed. He brought back his prey, but he was not empty-handed.

"Jian Jia, go and change into the clothes of the school boy. Let's go to the archery field of the academy right away. We're going to see those scholars' archery skills!" Lu Yang waved his hand and immediately ordered Lu Jianjia to prepare.

"Okay!" Lu Jianjia smiled happily, and changed into the clothes of a schoolboy in Tsing Yi like a fly, wearing a square scarf on his head, cloth shoes on his feet, red lips and white teeth, and a small body dressed as a schoolboy, unexpectedly a bit delicate and naughty.

Lu Kaitai pulled Lu Jianjia in front of him, and taught him a lesson: "Girl, haven't you forgotten Dad's warning?"

"I haven't forgotten!" Lu Jianjia nodded hastily.

Lu Kaitai's face was better: "It's good if you don't forget. I'll say it again. To be your second brother's book boy, you must be careful, read more, think more, learn more, talk less and do more. Remember?"

"Remember it!" Lu Jianjia assured repeatedly.

Lu Yang smiled slightly, took Lu Jianjia to bid farewell to his parents, and went to the shooting hall of the academy.Along the way, Lu Jianjia kept her mouth shut, looking at the scenery along the way with dark eyes, she hesitated to speak a few times, but every time she thought of Lu Kaitai's warning, she could only hold back her silence.

Lu Yang laughed and said, "I said Jian Jia, Dad told you to talk less, not to tell you not to talk!" Lu Jianjia breathed a sigh of relief, sticking out his tongue: "Hehe, that's good, then Jian Jia should talk less, don't be dumb!".

"Well, take it. This is my sword. Now that you are a book boy, you have to help me carry the sword!" Lu Yang threw the ancient sword in his hand into Lu Jianjia's arms.

The sword was quite heavy, and Lu Jianjia, with her thin arms and legs, immediately hugged the ancient sword, looked carefully at the cloud pattern on the sword case, and said in amazement: "This sword is really heavy, it doesn't seem like the sword worn by others! "

"The swords worn by ordinary people are lighter and thinner than mine, and they have been refined with Wenqi, which is called Junzi Sword. I haven't washed it with Wenqi, and it is just an ordinary sword for the time being. Wait for a while The second elder brother has learned the method of washing swords in the school, so he can refine it into a gentleman's sword!"

"Well, the swords worn by other people don't seem to be as powerful as the swords, but the second brother is more powerful!" Lu Jianjia held the sword, very precious, and she yearned for going to the school. You must know that studying in the academy is not as good as studying in Luqiu County. A private school in the countryside, this is the Bailongtan Academy in Moling Mansion, one of the 72 major academies of the Great Kuang Dynasty, and the students who study here are all scholars of the Dynasty, the most noble group of people in the entire Dynasty!

In the countryside, any well-known scholar may not pay homage to the county magistrate when he sees him. Like Huang Zongxi, the magistrate should be polite when he sees him. This shows how distinguished this scholar is. Now that he has become a book boy, he will face him later All of them are scholars.

Thinking of this, Lu Jianjia involuntarily turned his head to look at his second brother, his eyes were full of envious little stars, and he was thinking about when he could become a disciple of the Holy Way.Because she heard from Huang Yiyi that there are many women from noble families in the academy, such as the two young ladies of the Huang family.

Since talking to Huang Yiyi, Lu Jianjia has envied Huang Daoyun and Huang Yiyi, and even envied her second brother. Her ambition has also changed from marrying a good man to "becoming a glorious disciple of the Holy Way".

"What's the matter, what's the idea?" Lu Yang couldn't help laughing when he saw his sister's eyes rolling around cunningly.

"Second brother, I want to become a scholar like the young lady of the Huang family!" Lu Jianjia raised her fist and vowed.Lu Yang was silent for a while, sighed, and nodded: "Okay, then you work harder. Tonight, the second brother will teach you to meditate and learn writing!"

"Xiwen... don't I know some essays already, do I still need to learn?" Lu Jianjia was surprised. At home in Luqiu County, when she was bored, she would help Lu Yang by her side. For some commonly used characters, she can understand most of the articles and poems written by Lu Yang.

"You are reading without seeking deep understanding. You can't understand the heart of the article. If you want to step into the door of the holy way, meditation is the key. The self is more important, and this process can only be easily realized by reading chapters on righteousness!" Lu Yang began to teach.

"That's good, I will obey my second brother in everything!" Lu Jianjia nodded, and she obeyed Lu Yang's arrangement unconditionally.
