Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family - Chapter 423 - Chapter 423: Chapter 423: Test

Chapter 423: Chapter 423: Test
Liu Sisi pursed her lips and sneered coldly!

“With such a teacher, can he teach his students well? It’s the failure of a father to provide and the laziness of a teacher who doesn’t discipline! If that’s the case, it would be better for me to teach Xuan’er and Yun’er myself. At least, I don’t have to worry about leading them astray. It would be too late to correct it then!”

She spoke these words righteously, without feeling like she was bragging at all!

Two men walked by the small pavilion, inadvertently hearing what Liu Sisi said, and looked inside.

Di Yelei and the other’s faces still showed no improvement.

“The current problem is, Xuan’er and Yun’er have been inside for a long time. Will this Elder Mr. Xu let them pass?”

Liu Sisi also felt secretly anxious: “You don’t have to worry too much, Xuan’er is naturally intelligent, and Yun’er is honest. Even a thousand-mile horse needs a knowledgeable rider. As they say, there are plenty of thousand-mile horses around, but knowledgeable riders are hard to find. Whether or not he is one, let’s wait and see the results of Elder Mr. Xu’s selection.”

The two men who had passed outside the small pavilion had already left, but they still looked back at everyone before stepping into the side door.

On the other hand, Zhang Peng was secretly very happy. He was, in fact, the one who least supported Zhang Yun attending school. At the moment, knowing that it was very likely that he would not be able to study because of this, he could hardly hold back from laughing out loud three times.

When he looked up, he was immediately attracted by a figure who had just stepped through the main entrance. He hurriedly tugged at Di Yelei and muttered, “Hey! Yelei, look over there! Isn’t that Zhang… Zhang… ”

Liu Sisi turned her head and followed Zhang Peng’s direction, her eyebrows immediately furrowing.

The person entering the main entrance was none other than Zhang Shixin.

Zhang Shixin’s mood today was also quite low. He was originally sleeping soundly in Concubine Sixth’s bed but was forcibly called back by the wicked Shen Qiu, escorted to enroll his eldest son, Zhang Chengping, into school. To think that his family, one of the top in Macheng County, would have to condescend to visit this birdless village school to pay respect to an old teacher. It was a disgrace to Businessman Zhang’s face!

However, as hateful as the old lady Shen Qiu was, he dared not disobey her. So, he came here early this morning.

When he walked into the main entrance, he casually looked up, and his eyes widened!

It was Liu Sisi and the others!

As it happened, Liu Sisi turned her head just then, facing each other, lightning flashed and thunder rolled in an instant, and a storm arose in the center of the scene.

On the other side, Di Xuan and Zhang Yun entered the backyard along the alley. The inside was not as mysterious as they imagined. On the contrary, it was quiet and deserted.

After searching for a long time, Zhang Yun was particularly curious, “Xuan’er, do you think we took the wrong path? It’s not here, right?”

“But, the teacher pointed us this way, it can’t be wrong.”

“What if we go inside the house and sit for a while? The wind outside is getting stronger, and it’s so cold.” As Zhang Yun spoke, he shivered.

“No! Since the owner isn’t here, we can’t break into the house. If we’re mistaken for thieves, wouldn’t that be a disaster?”

“But… it’s really so cold here…”

In just a moment, Zhang Yun couldn’t bear the cold any longer.

It’s no wonder that this place is cold because the cold wind that blows through the alley meets the wind from the backyard, creating an even colder draft. No wonder Zhang Yun couldn’t bear the cold.

“Bear with it, don’t move around. If the teacher sees it, he’ll get angry.”

As the two little guys were bickering, two men came in from behind and surveyed them, “You are here to become disciples?”

Upon hearing this, Di Xuan immediately pulled Zhang Yun, and the two turned around to respectfully greet the newcomers: “Yes! We are here to become disciples of Elder Mr. Xu.”

The two newcomers looked at each other and shook their heads with a smile: “Oh? Then tell us, why do you want to become disciples of Elder Mr. Xu?”

Why did they want to become disciples of Elder Mr. Xu?

This question stumped Di Xuan. Could he say that before coming here, he didn’t even know who Elder Mr. Xu was?

“Why aren’t you talking? Little guy!”

The elder of the two men came forward and patted Di Xuan’s head.

Di Xuan instinctively turned his head to avoid the man’s hand: “My mother says that a good mirror can straighten clothes, a good history book can reveal patterns, and a good teacher can not only be a mentor but also make Xuan’er’s future smoother and avoid many detours.”

“Haha! Listen to the little guy, it’s always my mother. He’s not stage-frightened at all; this courage and insight are quite good.”

The older man couldn’t help but laugh three times.

The younger man beside him also laughed, “So, little guy, why is it always your mother? Don’t you have your own ideas?”

“Xuan’er’s mother is my first teacher, so not only is she my mother, but also my first honorable teacher.”

Di Xuan tilted his head, smiled confidently, and spoke eloquently: “If Xuan’er were to say it himself, I don’t need to be successful, I only need to be a true man who acts conscientiously!”

The two men didn’t expect Di Xuan’s answer to be like this. They looked at each other and asked curiously, “Who taught you this?”

“My Dad said that since I was born a man, I have my own mission. For our respective missions, we may have to do many things we don’t want to do. But, as long as we hold on to our beliefs and act righteously in the face of heaven and earth, and our parents and siblings, then we are true men!”

Di Xuan’s voice was very loud and clear, and his eyes were bright, almost dazzling the two men.

“Hahaha… what an interesting little guy. Well, do you know who I am?” The elder man asked with a laugh.

“I don’t know.” Di Xuan shook his head honestly.

“I am Elder Mr. Xu!”

Outside, by the flower stand.

Zhang Shixin’s face was particularly terrible, and his mind was full of Old Madam Gan’s warnings!

Last time, he had encountered Liu Sisi in Gan Mansion and fell into the water, causing him to catch a cold and suffer from a high fever in the cold winter. Afterward, he couldn’t stop coughing and stayed sick in bed for more than a month. He almost spent the New Year in bed.

But after learning that his father-in-law had returned, he tidied himself up and prepared to go and pay his respects, only to be scolded.

And the reason for the scolding was, of course, because of Liu Sisi in front of him now!

As soon as he got back home, that wicked old woman Shen Qiu further humiliated him, showing no mercy. He didn’t know where to put his face.

And the person who caused all of this, was standing right in front of him, a combination of new and old grudges. How could he not be angry?
