The Rise of the Cold Gate in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Chapter 9 Quiet effort?does not exist

It was agreed that everyone would be scumbags together, but you have worked hard behind your back to become a top student, what do you think?
The patriarch checked the recitation of the Analects of Confucius, only Xiao Qinzhi recited ten articles, and the others were wiped out. It must be a little bit like this, which made all the scumbags feel betrayed.

A big family inevitably has their own little calculations behind the scenes, but they can still maintain harmony on the surface, and these teenagers are only at the stage of mental development. It's all on the face.

Therefore, after school, the only ones waiting in front of the school were Fat Old Ba, Xiao Yao and Zhou Lie, and the rest were more or less upset and left early.

If this was in the past, everyone would have to wait for the fourth brother to leave together.

Xiao Qinzhi was only interested in the pleasure of escaping from the clutches of the patriarch, but he hadn't noticed the difference in the details. As soon as he left the school, he hurriedly urged the three of them to go back.

The sunshine in February was bright, and it was noon, which added a lot of warmth, but what the patriarch did in the morning made Xiao Qinzhi feel palpitations for no reason. Looking back, the school was far behind his ears , which slowed down the pace.

Maybe it's because of the words Xiao Qinzhi gave: "Out of the silt but not stained, clean ripples but not demon."

Perhaps Xiao Qinzhi was the only one who could recite the ten Analects fluently.

Perhaps it was Xiao Qinzhi's patronage and maintenance.

In short, after going through the whole morning, in Xiao Yao's heart, the image of the fourth brother was infinitely exalted, and he somehow felt that the fourth brother was awesome and hidden deep.

Old man Cui's lectures are obscure and difficult to understand, and he likes to drop his bookbags, taking this as profound and highlighting his knowledge, which hurts the students who are listening to the lectures, and Xiao Yao, who is not smart enough, suffers from it, and he is dizzy when he listens. Taking this opportunity, he humbly Ask some questions.

To be honest, Xiao Qinzhi also has many things he doesn't understand, most of which are vague, such as:

Zigong asked: "Who is better, the teacher or the merchant?" The master said: "The teacher is too late, but the merchant is not as good." Said: "But the teacher is better?" The son said: "It is not as good as it is."

This involves the "ideology of the mean". If you want to explain it in detail, it is not an exaggeration to write a great book, how can you sum it up in one sentence?

And old man Cui just mentioned it in a few words, and said it literally, just like this, expecting a bunch of teenagers to understand it by themselves, it would be a ghost.

Even so, Xiao Qinzhi answered Xiao Yao's few simple questions within his ability, and explained the literal meaning.

Even so, this kind of Xiao Qinzhi is no longer the fourth brother that the fat old man is familiar with. Compared with him, it is quite different.

The fat old man looked at Xiao Qinzhi who was teaching Xiao Yao, his eyes were resentful and hesitant, just like everyone else, he couldn't help feeling a pang of sadness in his heart, creating the illusion that the fourth brother was secretly working hard behind his back.

However, this also gave Fat Lao Ba a sense of urgency and aroused his desire to learn.

The fat old eight never wanted to complain about the silent efforts of the fourth brother behind the scenes, but he was afraid that he would not be able to keep up with the efforts of the fourth brother and fall behind.

"Fourth brother, can you take me with you when you study at night? I also want to work hard quietly, like you, fourth brother, to surprise everyone."

During the day, most of the people hang out together, and only at night can they have time to read, so Xiao Qinzhi was stunned when the fat old man thought of it, he couldn't figure it out, and subconsciously asked three soul questions:

"When did I read at night?"

"When did I work hard quietly?"

"When did I surprise everyone?"

The fat old eight was heartbroken, feeling that the fourth brother didn't regard him as one of his own at all, with a fat face on his shoulders, not to mention how sad, he curled his lips and said: "Fourth brother, I understand."

The willows on the shore of Fengqi Lake have just sprouted new green, swaying with the lake wind, the fat old man withdrew and left alone, although his figure was fat but a little bleak, he was lonely and lonely in the spring, and fell into Xiao Qin's eyes, only There are two colors, the fat old man is gray, and the rest are green.

Xiao Yao persuaded: "Fourth brother, you can take eighth brother to study together."

Xiao Qinzhi didn't understand what the problem was, so if he didn't know, he asked back:

"I never read? Don't you know that?"

Xiao Yao said: "Fourth brother, you can memorize ten chapters of the Analects of Confucius. You have already mastered the class that Mr. Cui just took today. How could you not have read it beforehand?"

"Hey!" Xiao Qinzhi instantly understood that the problem was here, and it was obviously a big oolong, so he quickly shouted at the little fat man:
"Eighth brother, eighth brother, you wait."

Hearing the urgent call of the fourth brother, the fat old man stopped suddenly when he heard the words, and he was overjoyed, thinking: "The fourth brother still cares about me. It's really good to use retreat as an advance." Then he turned around and revealed A knowing smile.

Xiao Qinzhi who caught up hurriedly said: "Eighth brother, listen to me, I really haven't studied."

Just this one word made the little fat man's heart fall to the bottom, and the smile on his face froze instantly. The child is about to slide down.

Xiao Qinzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, his unintentional behavior actually hurt someone, there's no reason for this, so he could only say helplessly while embarrassed:

"Eighth brother, listen to me first. I'm really not what you think. We grew up, you know who I am, and you know it best. I hang out with you all day, read books and so on. I am The most annoying thing, otherwise, a few days ago, I couldn't have been almost drowned."

The little fat man babbled and said, "You know how to recite the Analects of Confucius, and you can even explain it to Fifth Brother."

Xiao Qinzhi said in a weak voice: "I really didn't recite it. Somehow, I would recite it after hearing it. What can I do? I am also very distressed for my brother!"

The little fat man pursed his lips, apparently not believing it, thinking that the fourth brother would really pretend, and continued: "The patriarch values ​​you so much, he still sits next to you, and specially asked old man Cui to teach you a new lesson."

Xiao Qinzhi spread his hands, feeling pain in his balls, and said distressedly: "Why don't you try and let the patriarch sit next to you."

What's the difference between that and a prisoner? The little fat man shook his head violently.

"Then you come to see at night to see if I have read." There is no way out, and he can't bear to hurt the simple fat old man, so Xiao Qinzhi can only say so.

Xiao Yao said: "Eighth brother, let's go to study with fourth brother at night."

The little fat man was satisfied.

But Zhou Lie, who was walking behind, knew very clearly in his heart that Xiao Lang didn't even hold a lamp every night, so how could he go to study?

Also read a book about Mao!
Facts speak louder than words.

After the fat old man is settled, others can think whatever they want, Xiao Qinzhi doesn't have the time to explain them one by one, and when the old man Cui is taken away, the truth will naturally come to light.

As for reading, it doesn't exist, there is no word for reading in Hunzi's dictionary.

Xiao Qinzhi originally thought that he would be able to cast a big plan in the afternoon and drive away old man Cui, but unexpectedly, the patriarch was like a maggot on the tarsus bone, with a lingering ghost, he kicked Xiao Qinzhi aside as usual, and sat down directly.

It was like this for three consecutive days, so that Xiao Qinzhi woke up in the middle of the night, in a daze, he always felt that there was a patriarch sleeping beside him, and when he looked closely, it turned out to be a fat old man who was screaming.

The kid didn't believe it, he insisted on seeing if the fourth brother was reading quietly, and when it was getting late and the sleepiness hit, he collapsed on the bed and slept together.

These three days of torment, I can't tell what it feels like, not only have to endure the hypnotic attack of the old man, but also have to endure the eyes of the patriarch, and even have to endure the pointing and pointing of the clan brothers. It is working quietly behind the scenes.

Even Xiao Shu, the best friend, would cast resentful glances from time to time. As soon as he came home from school, he would be compared with "other people's children", and that "other people's children" was naturally Xiao Qinzhi. Who will have doubts and discomfort in their hearts.

The patriarch made this move and successfully created a barrier between Xiao Qinzhi and other brothers and clans, so as to achieve the purpose of dividing and isolating Xiao Qinzhi. Only three days have passed, and the effect is remarkable.

At the same time, Xiao Qinzhi also decided to take the initiative to attack and not be led by the nose by the patriarch.In the situation of being passive and being jealous of his brothers and sisters, the only person Xiao Qinzhi can help is Fat Old Ba.

As for Xiao Yao, he is a good guy, so he can't be taken into a ditch.

On the fourth day, Xiao Qinzhi, who couldn't wait, started to act. According to the plan that had been discussed, the two of them held back in the morning, and the class was calm and calm.

Until the moment when get out of class was over, Xiao Qinzhi secretly gestured towards the fat old man, and officially started to act.Since the patriarch is reluctant to leave, then take the initiative to create opportunities and let him go.

The people in the study hall gradually dispersed, taking advantage of this gap, the two stinky chess baskets were about to set up their positions again, discussing a few games, Xiao Qinzhi stayed behind, and came up to him, calling it a knowledgeable and superb chess skill.

And the fat old man is heading towards the predetermined place, and the two little followers, Zhou Lie and Man Gu, have already assembled at the predetermined place, and everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.
