"Really?" Wen Xiuyi asked, and when Shopkeeper Qiu nodded, he sat back down again.

Shopkeeper Qiu wiped off the water stains on his body and then said: "This kid, Datou, is very talented and a rare good prospect. Before Lao Jin and I came to Yunwu Town, he was a well-known teacher in the capital, so I I want to teach Datou myself.”

This sentence is easy to understand, but what does it mean to be a teacher?Sure enough, Shopkeeper Qiu is a man with a story.

Just looking at his age, he is not very old. He is in his 40s, maybe 50 at most. Why did he retire so early?

"Shopkeeper Qiu doesn't look very old. Why would he choose to come to such a small place to be a shopkeeper since he is in the capital?" Wen Xiuyi didn't understand. Isn't it said that men are ambitious, especially These literati in ancient times would never stop until they read.

As if thinking of the past, Shopkeeper Qiu laughed helplessly and said: "I am fifty, not too young. To be honest, when I was young, I relied on my talent and reputation, so I was inevitably a little arrogant. Once I was in high school and became an official in the court, I But I couldn't be imaginary and meandering. Furthermore, I really couldn't stand the atmosphere of the officialdom, so I asked for an imperial decree and became a teacher."

Fifty?This man really didn't look like he was in his fifties. I thought he was not much different from him, probably in his 40s at most.

Suddenly, Wen Xiuyi paused.

Wait, high school?Is the man in front of me a top scholar?

Enter the court as an official?Do you need to ask for an imperial edict to become a teacher?Is this an ordinary teacher?Obviously not.

"May I ask, where did you teach before?" Wen Xiuyi suddenly came closer and asked, even his voice lowered unconsciously.

Upon seeing this, shopkeeper Qiu also imitated his behavior, moved closer and whispered: "Imperial Imperial College."

Wen Xiuyi almost fell off the stool, stumbled and quickly held on to the table to avoid embarrassment.

He looked at Shopkeeper Qiu in surprise. Even if he didn't understand, he still knew what the Imperial College was. It was not only a place where nobles and nobles studied, but also a place where students from all over the world flocked to.

Shopkeeper Qiu actually taught in the Imperial College, and his abilities and knowledge are actually within the reach of ordinary people?

"Hey, brother Wen, are you okay?" Shopkeeper Qiu was also startled by him and quickly stood up to help him.

Wen Xiuyi stood still and waved his hands: "No, no, I'm fine. Sit down, sit down." As Wen Xiuyi said this, he pushed Shopkeeper Qiu back onto the stool and sat down, then looked at him in stunned silence.

What did shopkeeper Qiu say just now?You said you want to teach Datou personally?

His family is really lucky.

After being surprised, Wen Xiuyi turned around and called his eldest son: "Datou, where is Datou? Xiaojun, call your brother back quickly."

Why don't you call me back quickly to become a disciple?If you miss this village, there won’t be this store. This is still a boutique store, owned by the national team.

Wen Xiuyi thought happily that his son could study with Shopkeeper Qiu, how happy he would be. With Shopkeeper Qiu teaching him, and being an official in Beijing, he must know the way of being an official.

His family is very smart and will definitely embark on this path in the future. It is inevitable that he will encounter that bastard Meng. With such an expert to guide him, can he still be afraid of the man named Meng?

However, before Wen Xiuyi could be happy for a while, he heard Shopkeeper Qiu sigh deeply and say: "Unfortunately, after my parents passed away one after another, I left the Imperial College and swore that I would never accept students again in this life."

"Ah? Why?" Wen Xiuyi felt that his joy and sorrow came too quickly, and his little heart couldn't bear it.

Since you have sworn not to accept students, why are you bringing this up? It makes people happy in vain.

Ouch.

Shopkeeper Qiu smiled bitterly: "The things involved are too complicated, and it's been so many years, so it's okay not to mention it."

Wen Xiuyi: "..." Then what do you mean by mentioning this?To teach or not to teach Datou?

For the first time, Wen Xiuyi felt that talking to these intellectuals was really difficult.

He sat up straight, looked at Shopkeeper Qiu seriously, and said, "Shopkeeper Qiu, just tell me if you have any requests. Since you mentioned that you want to teach Datou in person today, you must have made plans. You said, as long as I, Wen Xiuyi, can do it, I will do my best."

"This..." Shopkeeper Qiu looked at him and murmured: "It's actually not difficult." My son can give me half.

"Huh?" Wen Xiuyi held the table and put his ear closer.

Shopkeeper Qiu relaxed after he made such a fuss. In fact, he could see that the Wen family were all pure and kind people, but he had too many worries and considerations, which made things complicated.

After thinking about it, Shopkeeper Qiu himself laughed. Seeing Wen Xiuyi's ear, Shopkeeper Qiu said his request with a relaxed expression: "I want to adopt Datou as my adopted son, so that I won't violate it." I vowed back then that I can also personally teach Datou."

"Adopted son? Godson?" Wen Xiuyi frowned. Doesn't he still want to steal his son from himself? From now on, when you call me daddy, you will have to use the word "gan" more than him.

No matter how you look at it, it seems that you are not at a loss.

"You just said that Datou didn't tell me, but have you told him?" Wen Xiuyi asked.

Shopkeeper Qiu nodded: "You guys went shopping yesterday. I chatted with Datou for a while, and he said he wanted to ask you what you meant."

Good guy, this little carrot didn't even mention it to him, he didn't know about it at all.

But in other words, Wen Xiuyi might not agree if he didn't know the origin and identity of Shopkeeper Qiu.

But now, Wen Xiuyi thought about it. According to the plot in the original book, Datou must encounter those people in his future. If he relied on himself alone, he could not guarantee that he could teach such a smart Datou anything. Come like this.

But things are different with Shopkeeper Qiu. Shopkeeper Qiu’s knowledge goes without saying. Zhuangyuanlang is the most knowledgeable person in the country, and he has also served as an official in the court. Compared with other scholars who are nothing, , it will definitely give the big head more help.

"Brother Wen?" Shopkeeper Qiu couldn't help but shout when Wen Xiuyi frowned and relaxed.

Wen Xiuyi came back to his senses, looked at him and said, "Let's ask Datou about this when Datou comes back. As long as Datou is willing, I don't have any objection. Anyway, without his mother, it's good for him to have multiple fathers to love him."

Shopkeeper Qiu's mouth twitched. These words sounded quite strange, but they seemed to make sense.

I only heard that Datou's biological mother and Wen Xiuyi left. Shopkeeper Qiu didn't ask where they went. After all, it was someone else's private matter, so he didn't say more. He just waited for Datou to come back and asked Datou if he wanted to I would like to be his adopted son.
