Eating big melon is so refreshing
Chapter 58: Studying in the Spring
"Where...did you get it?" Zhao Wulang got up from the ground and asked nervously. He also looked around to see if there were any strangers.
"Mr. Mingyue gave it to me." Xiao Chunya said, "This book is incomplete and the last few pages are missing. He doesn't know if there is any problem. If there is no problem, I will practice according to this book."
Uncle Ku took a breath and forced himself to calm down. He carefully took the book and flipped through it. After a full quarter of an hour, he said, "No problem."
"Uncle Wu, do you want to practice together?" Xiao Chunya invited Zhao Wulang. It would take at least eight years to wait for his brother to become an official, and at most three years to wait for his uncle to become an official.
"Can I? This is something from Young Master Mingyue's family..." It would be a lie for Zhao Wulang to say that he was not tempted. Without the internal energy and mental skills, his cultivation would have stopped there.
"I asked Master Mingyue, and he said yes."
Xiao Chunya suddenly felt something was wrong, turned to look at her fifth uncle, and asked, "I heard that the county magistrate sent you out on official business, and you're back in just half a day?"
Zhao Wulang said, "The county magistrate sent me to escort Miss Xiangling back to Zhangzhou Prefecture. It was not convenient for a man and a woman to travel alone. I happened to meet Doctor Qiao on her way to Zhangzhou Prefecture at the dock, so I asked her to take Miss Xiangling home."
"Is Miss Xiangling pretty?"
"Xiao Chun'er, the big family is in dire straits, let's not get involved." Zhao Wulang saw through it. "Although Miss Xiangling is a concubine's daughter, she must have a lot of maids and servants around her. How could she be abducted and sold? Who would believe that there is no insider?"
Zhao Wulang was not interested, so Xiao Chunya did not make trouble. She looked at Uncle Ku and asked, "Grandpa Ku, how should I practice?"
"Where's Xiao Qiu'er? Call her over together."
"My younger brother doesn't practice this technique, he has a master's inheritance." Xiao Chunya said implicitly. The profession of heavenly master is quite taboo. She said, "My fifth uncle, my grandfather and I can learn it. Oh, my father should also learn it. He is away from home for business all year round. The higher the martial arts skills, the safer he is."
"It's a pity for your father. If he had obtained this book and practiced it earlier, he might have been able to enter the Xuanwu Guard."
Uncle Ku thought that as long as his martial arts skills were up to par, he would be able to easily become an official in the Xuanwu position.
"Grandpa Ku, Xuanwu Guards not only need to assess strength, but also need to be scholars." Xiao Chunya said with a half-smile, "My father is not a good scholar. If he had obtained this book in his early years, he could only take the military examination and become a ninth-rank Renyong Xiaolie."
Zhao Wulang was surprised. "The requirements for Xuanwu Guard are so high? I thought it would be enough as long as the strength was sufficient."
"The Xuanwu Guards are the emperor's personal guards. It's impossible that they don't understand what the emperor says, right? How can they carry out their mission?" Xiao Chunya said, "I heard that one third of the Xuanwu Guards are in the hands of Wuxiang Guoshi. He is a top scholar and a son of a noble family. How can he tolerate his subordinates being illiterate?"
Uncle Ku, one of the illiterate people...
The second illiterate Zhao Wulang...
Xiao Chunya continued, "The Xuanwu Guard is very competitive. If the situation continues like this, my brother will at least have to take the imperial examination to be eligible to register. As long as he doesn't choose those wealthy places, he will be qualified to be a chief clerk, and then find opportunities to slowly be promoted."
Zhao Wulang was a little confused and asked, "If it's so difficult to pass the Xuanwu Guard exam, why do those people still want to take it? Isn't it good to be a county magistrate?"
"Fifth uncle, being able to advance to the Huajin level means you have a lifespan of 200 years. Not to mention the county magistrate, even the prime minister of the dynasty would be envious, right?"
"There are only ten people in the Daye Dynasty who can advance to the level of Hua Jin, and seven of them have been seriously injured. Although they have the power of Hua Jin, their lifespans are only slightly longer than those of ordinary people." Uncle Ku said with certainty, "The main reason why Luo Xiaopang's grandfather wanted to hide himself is because he was seriously injured."
"now what?"
"Of course now..." Uncle Ku's voice stopped, and Old Man Luo kicked his son and grandson out of the house.
It is definitely not as simple as it seems. Has his injury healed?
Right now
Luo Xiaopang is making a request to his grandfather that he plans to go to the county school in the early spring of next year.
Grandpa Luo was curious, he knew the little fat boy too well. He liked to eat and toys, but he didn't like to study. Although he had good talents, he could never settle down.
"Little Fatty, what's wrong with you?" Grandpa Luo touched his grandson's chubby face and said, "Didn't you say you were going out to find your friends?"
"I just got to the alley and heard Xiao Chunzi's loud voice. The siblings will go to school next spring." Luo Xiaopang is an honest child and says whatever he wants. "Grandpa, Li Datou will go to school this fall, and Xiao Chunzi and Xiao Qiuzi will also go to school next spring. Who will I play with? I might as well go to school with them. Maybe I will have more friends in the county school."
"Little Fatty, you finally got it." Grandpa Luo was very pleased. "There must be more friends in the county school, but the teachers there are very strict. If you don't study hard, you will be slapped on the palm of your hand. It hurts a lot."
Luo Xiaopang thought seriously for a while and said, "Grandpa, I decided to go to school. If others can do it, so can I. I am a fat man, not a fool. Xiao Chunzi said that every fat man has potential and is a talent!"
Grandpa Luo sent someone to inquire and found out that the fat boy had made a mistake. Xiao Chunya and Xiao Qiulin went to the county to study in the early spring of next year because they couldn't bear to leave the rolling iron-eating beast.
"Studying is good! No matter what the reason is, the fat boy is willing to go to the county school, which is much better than the old man urging him to do it."
Grandpa Luo knew that his grandson had also joined the panda-stroking team. He wanted to find a red panda for his grandson to play with, and also to have a powerful bodyguard when he grew up.
You wouldn't know if you didn't investigate. The granddaughter of Lord Ximen was quietly approaching the little fat boy. Grandpa Luo didn't think that this scheming daughter of the Ximen family would fall in love with his grandson. In all likelihood, she wanted to use the little fat boy as a stepping stone to climb up to Master Mingyue.
Humph, Lord Ximen’s power is too deeply involved with the previous dynasty. He has been demoted but still refuses to give up. He is playing with fire and getting burned. Don’t involve the Luo family in this.
That bitch who was kicked out actually dared to secretly collude with the Ximen family. The Feng family should take this opportunity to uproot the little power they have. There is no need to give that bitch any face.
"Old man, are you going to announce the little fat boy's background?"
"It's not the right time yet, wait a moment."
Grandpa Luo looked down at the sky and said, "The roc spreads its wings and flies high. It has been soaring high in the sky for a long time. The house sparrow can only chirp. It cannot fly high even if the cage is opened."
He has been patient for thirty years, so what does it matter if he endures a little longer? Old thief Wu, you never thought that the Luo family would rise again. This should have been a dead end, but now it has broken!
