Chapter 137

Bailu Academy is located in a green and dense bamboo forest in the west of the city. The environment here is quiet, a little far from the bustling parts of the county, and it is a good place for reading and self-cultivation.

The academy is very simple, there are only a few bamboo houses with simple decoration, two for students to study, two for precious books, and two for students and teachers to live in.

But don't look at the simple and shabby decoration here, the students who come here to study every year are overwhelmed, and it's not just the rich and well-connected who can come in.

This is due to Wei Detao, the teacher here. Wei Detao took over Bailu Academy in the past five years. Ye Hongxiu heard that his second elder brother Ye Ligang said that he was an old friend of the county magistrate.

During his five years of teaching, Bailu Academy has produced three candidates and two scholars. This year, Chunwei, one of the three candidates won the Huiyuan, and the other two won the Gongshi.

Linshui County has not had such glory in the past hundred years, and since then, Bailu Academy has become a place where everyone in the hundreds of miles around is desperate to enter.

But Wei Detao has a weird personality, accepting students all depends on his mood at the time, he accepts you if he likes you, if you don’t like you, you just invite the king of heaven to suppress him, and pile up mountains of gold and silver in front of him, He won't accept it either.

When Ye Hongxiu arrived at Bailu Academy, the school hadn't finished yet, so she went to wait in the bamboo house where Ye Ligang lived.

Because the dormitory of the academy is too simple, there are not many students living here. Ye Ligang is the only one in the room.

The furnishings in the room are extremely simple, a wooden bed, a thin quilt that never changes in all seasons, a desk, and a stool.

The desktop is also very simple, with two books, a few sheets of paper, two brushes, an inkstone, a teapot, and two teacups.

On the wall of the bamboo house, there is a picture of the three friends of plum, pine and bamboo painted by Ye Ligang himself.

After Ye Hongxiu looked around the room, she sat down by the bed and saw two pieces of clothes inside the bed. At first she thought it was dirty clothes, but she just washed them all when she came.

When I picked it up and smelled the faint fragrance of saponins on the clothes, I realized that they had been washed, and then I found that the armpits of the sleeves of the clothes were unthreaded.

The second elder brother is busy with his studies, so he seldom goes home, even when he is home, he doesn't want to bother her and mother with these trivial matters. When he went back last time, the socks he sewed by himself almost drove her and mother crazy from laughing.

Ye Hongxiu rummaged in the drawer under the desk for a long time and found the needle and thread.

By the time she sewed and folded the clothes and put them on the bedside, the sound of reading in the academy had stopped, and the students were out of class.

It didn't take long to hear Ye Ligang's voice outside. It was a student from the same academy asking him a question. Ye Ligang was one of the two scholars of Bailu Academy.

Just when Ye Li was answering the question, Ye Hongxiu got up and looked out the window.

The bright sunshine shone on his handsome face through the sparse bamboo leaves. He stared at the book and answered carefully with a serious expression, and his tone was neither arrogant nor humble, neither arrogant nor lying.

"Brother Li Gang, you are amazing. You can understand everything after you just say it once, sir. This time, Xie Yuan must be you!"

Facing the compliment and compliment from that person, Ye Ligang frowned unhappily, "Anything may happen before Qiuwei publishes the list, so don't mention such things casually in front of others in the future."

His voice was cold and hard.

"Yes Yes."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across that person's face immediately, thinking that Ye Ligang was as stubborn as his name, and he didn't know how to change it at all. I'm afraid it won't end well in the end.
