Northern Song Dynasty: Starting from the son of Song Renzong

Chapter 6 Teacher Selection

The man then hugged Miao Niang and said:

"Then tell me, what do you want to do?"

If Madam Miao knew...

Then why bother asking the other party?

only……

She did have an idea, but...she couldn't say it out loud.

It depends on men themselves to understand.

to be honest!
Zhao Xin is so young now, it’s not appropriate to find a teacher for him.

After all, you are at an age where you can’t even control your pee and poop.

and……

If we really let someone from outside teach, then wouldn't everyone in the palace and outside the palace know that Zhao Xin is very smart?
therefore……

There is ultimately only one solution to this problem, and that is to let the man teach himself.

In any case, let the man teach for a year or two first. When Zhao Xin is five years old, you can find another teacher.

But whether men are willing or not is hard to say!
Not to mention that men in the court will have a lot of government affairs to deal with.

Even if there is no government affairs, men prefer to go to Madam Zhang.

The so-called Madam Zhang is the man’s other favorite concubine.

……

Zhao Xin only saw his cheap father looking at him while talking.

Zhao Xin immediately pretended to be innocent, and quickly ran to the other person's knees. Then he gave the other person some of the crumbs of the cake he had snatched from the little girl.

"Zui Xinglai, is this for Daddy?"

"Eh!"

Then the other party looked at the small crumbs in his little hand, which were not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth, and he also declined politely: "Daddy doesn't want to eat it. I'd rather eat it myself."

Zhao Xin began to imitate his words: "Daddy doesn't want to eat, eat it yourself!"

It's only been a few months since we last met, but he can actually speak sentences consisting of seven words in a row.

This is also a bit surprising.

The man said, "Yes! You eat it, Daddy won't eat it."

Zhao Xin also replied: "Eat? Not eat? By yourself?"

The man finally spoke again, "Wait another month or two, and I'll see if I can find him a famous teacher."

This made Madam Miao's little thoughts go awry.

But think about it, instead of fighting for a future official position, it would be better to be a free and unfettered king.

Thinking about it this way...

Madam Miao seemed to be in a much better mood.

Then he replied happily: "Then I'll leave it to you, Sixth Brother."

The man felt that this was a bit awkward, so he said, "How can you say please? Zui Xinglai is also my son. You're saying this as if Zui Xinglai is not my son."

Madam Miao thought to herself, if you really had a son in your heart, you wouldn't go to Madam Zhang every day.

But he still looked at the other person with a silly smile on his face.

……

Another month passed in the blink of an eye.

At this time, Zhao Xin was already one year and nine months old.

This month.

Zhao Xin focuses on sentences used in daily conversation.

I have basically mastered various daily expressions.

"Miao Madam! Eat!"

"You're calling me Miss Miao again! I told you to call me sister!"

At this time, Zhao Xin would chuckle and then say, "Thirsty! I want water!"

Madam Miao immediately ordered her servant to pour him some water.

To be precise, she took the teapot and cup from the servant girl and poured the tea for him herself.

Zhao Xin finished the drink in a few gulps and then moved on to the next task, which was to find something he didn't recognize, or to be more precise, something he couldn't name, and then ask the other party: "This!"

Whenever Zhao Xin pointed to something he didn't know, Madam Miao would tell him what that thing was called.

“This is Huahua!”

After Zhao Xin finished identifying the flowers, he took the other person's hand and wanted to go out, but he was immediately pulled back by the other person.

"You are not allowed to go out when you are most excited!"

Zhao Xin really wanted to say why, but he hadn't learned the word yet.

It can only be replaced by an interjection such as "eh".

Then Madam Miao would explain: "Because there is a big tiger outside!"

Zhao Xin repeated: "Big Tiger?"

Madam Miao said, "Yes! Big tigers, big tigers will eat people!"

In fact, he didn't want Zhao Xin to be too conspicuous.

Zhao Xin also repeated: "Big Tiger!"

Madam Miao couldn't produce a big tiger at the moment, so she had to ask her subordinates to think of a way to see if they could buy a tiger head toy outside.

That evening...

Since there weren't too many tiger heads in the market outside, Zhao Xin saw what the big tiger looked like that night.

"Look! A big tiger!"

I saw Madam Miao holding a tiger head toy and talking to Zhao Xin.

Zhao Xin looked at Madam Miao as if she was an idiot. You actually lied to me and said there is a big tiger out there?

You obviously don't want me to go out!

For some reason, he really wanted to go out and take a look.

He has been here for four months, but he has not seen the scenery outside the yard.

The red wooden door and the threshold that was half as high as one's body felt like an insurmountable chasm.

But there is no other way!

Who made him still young?
simply……

He also teased his older sister, the little girl, and then imitated the little girl's speech.

Zhao Xin has a hard time grasping many topics and has no idea what other children usually talk about.

But with the little girl, it’s different!

He just said whatever she said, and this way, no one would doubt him.

"Sister, look, Zui Xinglai is here to make trouble again!"

Zhao Xin also repeated: "Here to make trouble again!"

"I'm talking about you!"

Zhao Xin: “I’m talking about you!”

"Zui Xinglai, don't disturb your elder sister from learning to write. Come! Sister will teach you how to write!"

Zhao Xin had no choice but to be forcibly carried aside by the other party, and then learned how to hold a pen and how to write.

"Zhao Xin, this is your name."

Zhao Xin was almost scared by the words written by the other party, and thought, damn, how do you know my name is Zhao Xin.

after that……

Madam Miao told him, "Your nickname is Zuixinglai."

Zhao Xin looked at these three words and felt a little strange!
I thought, is this a parallel world?

Otherwise, why would someone choose such a strange nickname?

This is unscientific!
"Your eldest sister's name is Zhao Huirou."

In order to speed up the process, Zhao Xin quickly copied all of it for her one-to-one.

of course!

The handwriting is definitely not as beautiful as the other person's, but every stroke is correct!
at this time……

When seeing how smart Zhao Xin was, Madam Miao was not surprised at all.

So I just taught him more words.

Zhao Xin was not impatient at all and absorbed everything the other party said.

Write it down and read it aloud at the same time to help strengthen your memory.

After waiting for a few more days, finally!
His cheap daddy is here again!
and……

The two seemed to be discussing who would be their teacher.

His cheap father said, "I think Yan Shu is good. What do you think of Yan Shu? I originally wanted to invite Lu Yijian, but I think he is a little old. If he walks around all the time, it will not be good. So, after thinking about it, let Yan Shu come! Yan Shu once gave me a lesson and inspired me a lot. I think he will definitely be able to teach Zui Xinglai well."

"Speaking of which...how is Xinglai doing recently? If Yan Shu is asked to start teaching him from the beginning, he will probably have a headache."
