Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 266 Mr. Ye gives them the first lesson

Their ancestors of the Su family had also experienced hardships and were persecuted here. What crime and what exile were all decided by the authority. After meeting Ye Yanzhi in person, I knew that their family probably had a story.

The Su family didn't care about these things, as long as Mr. Ye was a good person, they only believed what they saw with their own eyes. The five children also kowtowed to the master sincerely and became his disciples. Now they all have a teacher.

Su He and his family would never complain about having too many masters. Every master they recognized would be equivalent to having a skill in the future. So the more masters, the better. Now Su He has the most masters in the family. There are masters who study medicine, masters who study martial arts, masters who study literature, and there will be many more masters in the future...

Su He felt that in ancient times, it was not a disadvantage to have a master. Once a master, always a father, it meant that there were many people who loved him. Anyway, the few masters he had so far were all accepted by them willingly.

Su He told his parents, and they took Mr. Ye to the school first. After all, he would study there in the future, and he would need Mr. Ye's approval.

Su He and his brother respectfully invited Mr. Ye to the school. He was very satisfied with the school carefully decorated by the children and praised them. The children also took him to his bedroom next door. It was a room with an inner and outer suit. The big room was a bed and a cabinet, and the outer room was a table and chairs, as well as a face plate rack and a coat rack.

The bed had new bedding, and all the furniture was clean and shiny, much better than his current home. However, he said he couldn't live here for long, as his wife and children at home still needed his care.

Su He and his friends said that the master can choose any place he wants. When the weather is bad and it is inconvenient to go home, he can live here. At other times, he can live in his own home. This arrangement is for the convenience of the master.

Mr. Ye agreed without hesitation. Then he opened the package he brought, which contained two books, and asked the children to start formal classes today. They would have a class today and go out to buy books together in the afternoon.

There aren't many books at home. They wrote them out in their spare time over the past two years. Their children also need to study. I have just agreed with the owner of the Su family to go to the bookstore in the afternoon and buy the books the children are reading now.

He did not give a lecture, this class was mainly for questions. He needed to understand the situation of several of his students before deciding on the content of the future teaching.

These children are all at a good level and have a solid foundation, but they don't understand the content of some books well, probably because they started school late. He just talked to the children's father and learned that they used to learn to read and write at home, and then went to the academy for more than a year. This level is already good.

He knew the level of several children clearly, especially this little girl Su He, who had good aptitude, but unfortunately she was a girl. Their family also said that she mainly followed the school and was said to be learning medical skills. It seemed that he could only teach her in the future, what a pity for such a good seedling.

If Su He knew that her husband thought of her like this, she would think, I have graduated from a serious higher education, how come I am not better than my brothers and other little brats?

At noon, Su He's father specially asked the kitchen to prepare an extra dish to entertain Mr. Ye. He also told the kitchen to cook carefully in the future, because he and his husband, who has children, are eating together!

The servants in the kitchen said that they would work hard to make more delicious dishes to entertain the master. They learned a lot of skills in the Su family, and the cooking skills of the Su family girl were enough for them to learn. She would come to the kitchen from time to time to teach them how to cook a dish, which was a rare skill.

Ye Yanzhi looked at the dishes on the Su family's dining table and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this Su family is not simple! Just looking at these dishes, they can be eaten even in Beijing. Then he tasted the taste, many of them were good, Su He's family background is not poor!

They had a sumptuous meal together, and then Su He's father asked Mr. Ye to go back to his room to take a nap and took the children to buy books in the afternoon.

Ye Yanzhi couldn't refuse, so he went back to his room to rest. Lying on the bed, he felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Since arriving at the border town, he wanted to take a lunch break. It would be good if he could stop in the middle. The Su family is really good. He has met good people.

When they went out in the afternoon, Su He's parents had already placed the children's apprenticeship gifts in the carriage of the mule cart.

A large piece of pork, a pack of noodles, several packs of delicious snacks made by Su He, several large pieces of fine cloth and a pack of writing brushes, inkstones, paper and inkstone. These were all practical things, and they knew what the Ye family lacked the most.
