After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 57 The way to a university lies in Ming Ming De

Erxi almost made him laugh, "Liu Guangzong, who are you angry at? First of all, this is not your home. I paid the boat fare to come here. Do you have any control over what I say?"
"Secondly, you are restless. You haven't turned the page after reading a page for a quarter of an hour, and you still have the nerve to blame me for disturbing you? Why are you so big-faced?"

When away from home, he always adheres to the principle of being kind to others.

But Liu Guangzong, huh, does he deserve to be polite to him?
Liu Guangzong: "You! Sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued! Strong words! What do you know? Reading is not just about chewing peonies. Reading is all about speed. When reading, you have to consider every word and savor it carefully!
"That's all, what do I have to say to you, an illiterate idiot like you?"

"Don't know one big character?"

Erxi couldn't help but laugh.

"I could recite the "University" you are holding in your hand by heart at the age of eight. You have been reading for so many years, and you still haven't memorized it now, right? You're not even as good as me, who is just a mud-legged person, right?"

When his father was still alive, he enlightened several of their brothers and sisters. He remembered that when he was a child, there were many books in the family. At that time, he liked to roll around in the pile of books and read most of his father's books.

It's a pity that after the house was bought by Liu Jiaqiang, all the books in the collection were taken away by Liu Jiaqiang.

Liu Guangzong's face was full of sarcasm: "Do you know how many words there are in the whole "The Great Learning"? Can you recite it by heart at the age of eight? You are really bragging and don't draft."

Some people also questioned: "Young man, it seems that you can't afford to study, so don't talk nonsense."

"That is, you can recite "The University" by heart at the age of eight? Haha, I never dreamed of such a good thing."

"Boy, your bragging is too outrageous. I thought I had read a few books and studied "University" when I was young, but I haven't been able to memorize it for several years. You can memorize it at the age of eight?"

Hearing that everyone around him was on his side and targeting Lin Erxi, Liu Guangzong's eyes showed pride.

Erxi glanced at the audience lightly: ""The University" has 150 words in total."

Then he recited it loudly in public: "The way of a university lies in being virtuous, being close to the people, and striving for perfection..."

"...the mind is upright, then the body is cultivated, the body is cultivated, then the family is in order, the family is in order, then the country is governed, and the country is governed, then the world is peaceful."

"...Although there are good people, there is no such thing as this! This means that the country does not use profit as a benefit, but righteousness as a benefit!"

When the last word fell, the whole place was silent.

Everyone looked at Er Xi blankly. Although they didn't understand, they felt powerful.

"Haha, that's right word for word. He is truly a young talent!"

An old man sighed while stroking his palms, looking at Er Xi with eyes full of admiration.

The old man is tall, has a slender face, and has gray hair. He looks very energetic. He is wearing a gray cloth, dressed like an ordinary farmer.

However, the identity of the old man is not ordinary. He is Lin Wushang's grandfather, Lin Jian, the Duke of Chang Kingdom.

The reason why I appeared on this passenger ship was because I wanted to visit the Lin family and see what my precious grandson’s god-sister looked like.

Xiaojiu, the child, has been running to Lin's house every day recently. As a grandfather, he is really curious.

On this trip, he didn't bring anyone with him, and he deliberately dressed in a low-key manner, just not wanting to attract attention.

Unexpectedly, I met such a talented young man on the ship, and I couldn't help but speak up for him.

Others also reacted one after another, looking at Er Xi with shock in their eyes.

"My dear, you really recited it backwards and forwards without any pause in the middle."

"This young man is so powerful, he will definitely be extraordinary in the future."

"In this comparison, the scholar is really not that good. He even thinks that the young man is disturbing him with his words. He himself is far behind him."

Those suspicious and contemptuous glances were like invisible slaps in the face, and Liu Guangzong's face turned into the color of pig liver.

Er Xi, who had recited the entire story of "The Great Learning" fluently, sat back without any shock and continued to tell stories to the children.

Lin Jian looked at him with more admiration.

As soon as the boat docked at the town's dock, Liu Guangzong couldn't wait to escape.

Lin Jian got on the boat to Mingshui Village, only to find that the boy was on the same boat with him again.

After hundreds of years of cultivation, they were able to cross the same boat twice in a row. What kind of fate is this!

The old man and the young man started chatting naturally.Lin Jian was surprised to learn that the young man named Lin Erxi was actually the Lin family, the Lin family where Lin Xi lived.

He spoke without leaving any trace, and soon he had a thorough understanding of his family's situation.

When they arrived at Mingshui Village, the two went ashore. Lin Jian lied that he was going to visit relatives and separated from the boy.

Watching the young man leave briskly, Lin Jian touched his beard and walked slowly towards the back mountain.

In addition to visiting the Lin family this time, he also wanted to see his son, so it was not a lie to say that he was visiting relatives.

On the other hand, Liu Guangzong returned home and saw a group of people gathered outside his yard, slamming the door angrily and cursing.

"Liu Zhaodi, come out! Don't be a coward!"

"Liu Zhaodi, you have caused us to lose everything, please pay us back!"

"Half a year's harvest is rotting in the ground like this. Liu Zhaodi, you deserve to be struck by lightning!"

Inside the courtyard wall, Liu Zhaodi couldn't bear it anymore and burst out: "Why are you blaming me? Didn't my own wheat be confiscated? My family's losses are much greater than yours. What did I say about me?"

"I don't blame you, who do you blame! It was you who insisted on saying it wouldn't rain and stopped us from harvesting wheat. Your conscience is rotten!"

Along with this roar, there was a "crash" and a bucket of dung was thrown on the door of Liu's house.

In an instant, a overwhelming stench spread out.

Liu Guangzong was disgusted and angry, and rushed forward: "What are you doing!"

"The eldest son of the Liu family is back!"

"Liu Guangzong, your mother has harmed us, tell us what to do!"

A group of villagers came up and surrounded Liu Guangzong.

There was a flood a few days ago, and they had too much time to take care of themselves, so naturally they couldn't come to Liu Zhaodi to settle accounts.

Later, when the flood receded and their lives were no longer in danger, they thought of the wheat rotting in the ground. Their intestines turned green with regret, and they hated Liu Zhaodi so much that their teeth itched.

If Liu Zhaodi hadn't vowed that it wouldn't rain, they would have listened to the village chief and harvested the wheat!

It wouldn’t be like this!

Without wheat, how will they live the rest of their lives?After much deliberation, the only option was to settle the score with Liu Zhaodi and make her pay for it!
Otherwise they will starve to death.

Where are you waiting to harvest rice?

When Liu Zhaodi heard that her eldest son was back, how could she sit still?

The door that had not been opened before was now opened by her on her own initiative.

"What are you doing! Let go of my son!"

Liu Zhaodi was like an old hen protecting her young, passing through the crowd of people surrounding her and protecting her eldest son behind her.

When those people still wanted to pull her, she simply sat down on the ground and started splashing.

"Old Gen, why did you leave, causing us orphans and widowed mothers to be bullied by others! It's unreasonable! Are you trying to force me to die?"

Liu Zhaodi was about to hit the wall, but the villagers hurriedly stopped her. If this really forced her to death, they would be in big trouble!
"What are you all doing here! Nothing to do anymore? Have the rice seedlings been planted? Have the fields been watered? They're all gone! They're all gone!"

Liu Shuigan, who rushed over after getting the news, gave a sharp rebuke and drove away the gathered villagers.

He was not defending Liu Zhaodi. In fact, he resented Liu Zhaodi very much. If Liu Zhaodi hadn't acted like a monster, the wheat in the village would have been harvested before the flood!

But as the village chief, he cannot bring his personal emotions to work. He must be stable and not let the villagers cause trouble.

Liu Zhaodi pulled her son into the house and closed the door with a bang.

Liu Guangzong couldn't wait to ask: "Mom, what's going on?"
