Chapter 9 Gorgeous is easy

The next day, Master Hong Er arrived again, delivered a stack of books to Li Xuedong, and passed on Mr. Shao's words:
Learning skills depends on comprehension. He picked a few introductory books and two notebooks of his experience notes for beginners, and asked Li Xuedong to read them first. When he was almost done, he wrote a copy of his experience and gave it to him. After he read it, Let's talk about the next step.

Li Xiaonan was overjoyed, this teaching method really satisfied her.

That night, Li Xuedong sat at the table practicing calligraphy, and Li Xiaonan huddled in the corner of the table, and by the light of the fuel-saving lamp, he saw midnight in one breath, and he knew it in his heart.

This style is really too simple for her.

After reading all the books and Mr. Shao's academic notes, Li Xiaonan organized her thoughts, and began to give Li Xuedong a small lesson secretly according to her own thoughts.

Li Xuedong can barely be considered smart, and the most important thing in learning style is thinking and methods. With Li Xiaonan, a super expert, one-on-one explanation, in just ten days, Li Xuedong sent a few books sent by Master Hong Er, and Mr. Shao Two academic notebooks, [-]% to [-]% of what I learned.

Spend another two days, write a study experience seriously, and give it to Mr. Gao to read first.

Mr. Gao read it three or four times very carefully, and he knew all the words, but he couldn't understand them together.

Mr. Gao solemnly sealed the envelope, stamped it with a lacquer seal, and entrusted it to an acquaintance in the city, and sent it to the Hong family in the city.

Early the next morning, Second Young Master Hong arrived and patted Li Xuedong on the shoulder as soon as they met.

"You still say that you are not smart! Are you very powerful! Mr. Shao was full of praise for your experience yesterday. He was still talking about it during breakfast, saying that you have profound experience and clear reasoning, and that you have already got the essence. No. You turned out to be a hidden one!"

"No, that, I mean, I'm stupid, that..." Li Xuedong was so overwhelmed by his praise, his face flushed, he was not modest, he was guilty, be modest, and he was afraid that being modest would be too much to provoke people suspicion.

Alas, it's really not his skill!

Second Young Master Hong looked at Li Xuedong whose face was flushed red, patted Li Xuedong with one hand, put one hand on his hip, and laughed.

"Weng Weng said that you are a poor family in a remote village, and I'm afraid you're not used to socializing. That's true. I'll teach you! You should say: Brother Hong is too much, a fool cares a lot, and it's just a chance."

"Yes yes yes, Brother Hong has won the award. A fool thinks a lot, and it's just a chance." Li Xuedong was in a state of embarrassment, and immediately learned it verbatim.

Second Young Master Hong was stunned for a moment, then with a pop, this time he held his stomach and stomped his feet and laughed loudly.

"Ahahahaha! You, yes, yes, I mean, that's it. Ahahaha! I'm not laughing at you, ahahahaha! I'll teach you later."

After laughing for a while, Second Young Master Hong looked at Li Xuedong with red head and flushed face, and for the first time found such an honest person quite interesting.

Young Master Hong put his arms around Li Xuedong, "Mr. Shao asked you when you would be free and let you go. He asked you face to face. He said he would have a good chat with you so that we can see where we should learn next. When are you free?"

"I have time, I..." Li Xuedong looked back subconsciously, but he didn't see Li Xiaonan, but saw Mr. Gao.

"If it's convenient for the second young master, you can go there now." Mr. Gao smiled and waved to Li Xuedong.

"Then let's go now! Get on the horse, you don't need to know how to ride, just sit still. Let's not run the horse, just walk slowly." Second Young Master Hong didn't ask Li Xuedong any more questions, and simply made the decision.

Last time, his social interaction with Li Xuedong was really embarrassing. After returning, he told him Weng Weng in detail.

Weng Weng taught him: Li Xuedong, who has no father and no mother, lives in a very poor family, and no one in the clan cares about him. All his energy is spent on studying, and he must know nothing about human relations and social affairs.

In such a predicament, with Gezhi ignorant of this subject, and still able to get No. 18 in the government examination, Li Xuedong must be smarter than him, and he doesn't need to think too much about people who are smarter than himself, as long as he shows his sincerity.

If a real sincerity can't impress Li Xuedong, then Li Xuedong either has no relationship with their Hong family, or he is not worth handing over.

With Weng Weng's advice, Second Young Master Hong felt at ease about dating Li Xuedong.

As a person, his greatest strength is that he treats people with sincerity - this is what he Weng Weng said.

Second Young Master Hong looked at Li Xuedong again.

People like Li Xuedong are quite interesting, but they are too timid. Well, in the future, he has to be more careful, care about him and take care of him.

Li Xiaonan shrank behind the door of the school, watching Li Xuedong being carried on the horse by the long attendant, clutching the saddle nervously, and together with Young Master Hong, they walked away towards the county town, heaved a long sigh of relief, raised her hand and patted on the chest , she was very nervous for her brother.

Li Xiaonan went into the kitchen and helped Old Huang Ma with chores, but she was somewhat absent-minded.

She was a little worried. Her brother was an honest man and had never seen the world. This trip to the Hong family would definitely embarrass her brother. Fortunately, the second young master Hong seemed to be a very nice person.

Before it was dark, the Hong family's cart stopped at the gate of Gao's Academy, Li Xuedong got out of the cart, and the driver unloaded two medium-sized rattan boxes.

The box was first moved into the Gao family hall.

One box was filled with books, and the other box was filled with high-quality paper and ink, as well as a top-grade She inkstone, and a dozen top-quality Hu brushes.

Mr. Gao looked at everything carefully and was very moved.

This box of pens, inks, papers and inkstones is all serious and good things, but it is worth a lot of copper coins. The grandeur of the Hong family is really incredible!
It really wasn't easy for the Hong family to go from a middle-class family in Kunshan County to a so-called prefecture in Kunshan County in a span of 20 years.

Mr. Gao explained to Li Xuedong in detail: take as much as you need, although there is a lot of paper and ink, you should save it. The college test is extremely difficult. If you fail this subject, you will definitely have to take another test or two in the future. Make a long-term plan .

Li Xuedong kept nodding his head. The box Gao's family gave him was full of the best rice paper, and he couldn't bear to use any of it.

Li Xuedong carried five or six books and two ink scrolls, and returned to the back row of the school. He and Li Xiaonan lived in a small room on the west side.

Two of them are Gezhi ink scrolls, one is the top three ink scrolls in nearly a dozen academic examinations on Liangzhe Road, and the other is the top three ink scrolls in more than a dozen rural examinations.

Li Xiaonan looked at the two ink scrolls carefully first, as if she had found a treasure, and after reading it carefully, she almost laughed out loud.

This style is really too easy for her!

If she only takes the test of Gezhi, she can get six poems and three yuan all the way!
Li Xiaonan suppressed the hahaha in her heart, and continued to read those elegant books with a smile.

Under a small oil-saving lamp, Li Xiaonan was sitting on the ground, leaning on the table leg, concentrating on reading a book, while Li Xuedong was sitting on a chair, frowning and blushing, struggling to do the exquisite test paper that Li Xiaonan gave him.

Ah Nan asked too many difficult questions!
