Live a good life.

On the contrary, after I became his student, he gave me these as a gift when we first met.

Lin Fan didn't know what a person of high moral character should be like, but he could say with certainty that Chu Jiang felt he deserved the title of "noble".

This is someone who has truly absorbed the essence of books and possesses the integrity of a scholar.

……

After finishing his meal, Chu Jiang took his leave.

Before leaving, he told Lin Fan that he would prepare some teaching materials and send them over the next day, and then officially begin teaching them.

Because Lin Fan was busy with business, he didn't have a fixed schedule. Chu Jiang would teach him whenever he was free.

As for Qiao'er and the others, they were idle at home anyway, and the family didn't need them to do anything for the time being, so they studied for four hours every morning and two hours every afternoon.

While his adoptive mother and the others were cleaning up the mess after dinner, Lin Fan took a break and went to Lin Shuying's room, helping her to bed.

"Shuying, what do you think?"

"How about what?"

Lin Shuying turned her head and looked at Lin Fan with a puzzled expression.

Lin Fan thought for a moment and said, "Of course it's Teacher Chu. What do you think of Teacher Chu?"

Lin Shuying tilted her head slightly, thought seriously for a moment, and then said, "It's good, trustworthy!"

Lin Fan raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "How did you figure that out?"

Lin Shuying smiled gently, "I don't know how to judge people, I just see that you trust him, so I trust him too!"

Hearing this, Lin Fan was stunned.

He then laughed and subconsciously reached out to grasp Lin Shuying's wrist, saying with a smile, "My wife has learned how to coax people too!"

"But you're right, Teacher Chu is indeed a trustworthy person!"

Lin Fan stood up and took out the cloth bag that Teacher Chu had given him from his pocket.

Then, in front of Lin Shuying, he pulled out a worn-out wooden box from the cabinet, which contained some miscellaneous items.

Lin Fan carefully took out the miscellaneous items, placed the wooden box at the bottom, wrapped it with a cloth, and then put the miscellaneous items on top before pushing the wooden box back into place.

Lin Shuying watched Lin Fan's actions quietly, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

After Lin Fan finished his work, Lin Shuying asked softly, "What are you doing?"

Lin Fan looked up and smiled at Lin Shuying: "Those things were treasures. I put them there, and no one but you and me knows about them. Tell Mom not to touch that box again, for no reason, and no one is allowed to touch it except you and me."

Lin Shuying was completely confused.

I don't understand what kind of treasure could be hidden in such a cloth bag.

To make Lin Shuying understand that he wasn't joking, Lin Fan walked over and sat down next to her, looking at her seriously and saying, "Xiuying, remember this, the things inside are real treasures, treasures in the literal sense, that can turn the tide at crucial moments!"

"Just tell Mom not to touch it, just leave it there. Don't tell anyone else about this except you and me. If Mom asks, just say I told you to. As for the reason, don't say there's treasure inside, just make up some excuse."

Seeing Lin Fan's serious expression, Lin Shuying nodded solemnly.

"Okay, I remember it!"

How could I not treasure it? It's worth tens of millions, and its value will continue to appreciate over time!

And what about Lin Fan now? At most, he earns a few thousand yuan a day. Before his business grows big, those things can indeed turn the tide if used properly at crucial moments.

So it's not an exaggeration to say that, after all, that's tens of millions. In this era, what can't be bought back besides life?

……

The next morning, as agreed the day before, Chu Jiang arrived at the Lin family's house early, bringing his prepared teaching materials to give the family a lesson.

Qiao'er, Xiuying, and even the eldest sister sat quietly in the prepared room, nervous and expectant, as they began their first lesson in life.

As for Lin Shuying, she already has a certain foundation, and since she is currently having difficulty walking, she doesn't need to attend classes with them for the time being. She can just read some books and do her own research on her own.

Lin Fan, Zhang Weihao, and Lin Desheng, as usual, the three of them, along with Dadan, pulled two mules and two carts into the city.

On the way, seeing that Dadan seemed a bit absent-minded, Lin Fan went up to him and struck up a conversation.

"Brother Bold, what happened? Did you run into some trouble?"

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, Da Dan quickly shook his head and gave a simple, honest smile.

"No, no, Mr. Lin, I was just thinking about a friend and got a little distracted!"

Previously, Da Dan always addressed Lin Fan as the Lin family brother, but recently he has changed his address and starts calling him Boss Lin along with the others.

Lin Fan didn't mind; it was just a form of address anyway, as long as the relationship remained the same.

Seeing that Dadan's face showed no sign of distress and his expression was calm, Lin Fan smiled and nodded: "Okay, Brother Dadan, if you encounter any problems that you can't solve, tell me and I'll think of a solution for you!"

"Alright, Mr. Lin, don't worry. If I really run into trouble, I won't hold back!"

The four chatted and laughed all the way, sitting on the cart, and were quite relaxed.

They managed to reach the county town before 9:30 a.m. and completed the transaction in a familiar alley.

However, none of the four noticed that several suspicious figures were following them on their cart all along the way.

……

On his way home, Lin Fan saw some roasted sweet potatoes and roasted chicken for sale, so he bought some to take back to his family to satisfy their cravings. Of course, he also remembered to prepare some for Teacher Chu.

When he got home, not long after class, Teacher Chu went home. His family had plenty of rice, flour, and meat, so the Lin family didn't insist that he stay for a meal.

"Xiuying, Qiao'er, how's it feeling to study? Are you happy?"
