Chapter 498 Entering the Heavenly Courtyard
Shi Shi entered the door, looking at everything in front of him, he was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

so many books!
The living room and the side hall are full of bookshelves, and the special bookshelves are tall and big!Straight to the roof!The densely packed books were placed on the bookshelves in the room without any space, and some books were even piled on the table without being able to fit, forming a hill.

Shi Shi stepped forward and gently stroked the bookshelves and books, enviously thinking that it would be great if he could read all the books here!You are worthy of being the prince and Taifu!His real talents and knowledge are beyond his reach!Just look at those books that have been turned old and yellowed!
Going all the way along the bookshelf, Shi Shi didn't come back to his senses until he saw an old man with his back on his back at the end.

The respectful running scholar hurriedly stepped forward and saluted:
"Yang Shitou met Grandpa Fu!"

Old man Fu turned around holding the scissors, saw Shi Shi's serious face, nodded and said:

"En~ She's more polite than that crazy girl of your sister! Sit down!"

Seeing that Grandpa Fu was so kind, Shitou immediately relaxed, and obediently sat on the chair and waited for the other party to finish his work.

While trimming the potted plants, old man Fu asked in a whimpering voice:
"What books have you read? Where have you learned?"

Stone hurriedly said with a serious look:

"The masters before the Four Books and Five Classics have all talked about it in a simple way!"

"Old man Fu is noncommittal.

"En! What can be done to make Furun House nourish body and mind and gain weight?"

Shitou pondered the words in his heart and said:

"Rich people only renovate their houses to make them gorgeous and beautiful, while benevolent people have a spacious heart and a comfortable body!"

"Destiny is called nature, willfulness is called Tao, and cultivation of Tao is called teaching!"

"The virtue bestowed by nature is nature, following the things themselves is called Tao, and making people cultivate and follow the Tao is called teaching!"

Old man Fu finally turned around, looked at the immature stone, nodded and said:
"Not bad! It's a piece of material for reading! But ah~ how do you read this book, and how do you appreciate your understanding?"

Shitou still couldn't figure it out after deep contemplation, so he humbly asked for advice:
"I hope Grandpa Fu will teach me!"

Old man Fu waved his hand and sat down on the Taishi chair.

"Teaching is not counted, it's just that you need to understand the meaning of reading. The two questions you answered just now are not wrong! Even if you go to the imperial examination examiner, you are impeccable! It's just whether you want to be an official or really like reading. It’s up to you! It doesn’t matter if you learn by rote or not!”

Shitou frowned lightly and pondered for a long time, and finally felt that he wanted to read.

"Grandpa Fu! If someone asked me what I was studying for a few years ago! I would have said without hesitation to be an official! Just for the better life of my family! Don't let people bully me anymore!

But now I don’t know when my mood has changed. I like reading and I will be ecstatic when I see thousands of books outside!So today the stone is taught! "

Old man Fu stretched out his hand and touched the stone, motioning for him to sit down and talk about irrelevant topics.

Pointing to the potted plants on the window sill, he asked the stone:

"How do you see my potted plant trimming?"

Stone: ".It's so ugly!"

Old man Fu patted the table and laughed haha ​​when he heard the words, and after a long time, he lit a stone and said:
"I just said that you know more about etiquette than that girl! I didn't expect that the essence is still the same! Even the words you say are exactly the same! That's all! It seems that I really don't have the talent for pruning potted plants!" As he spoke, he opened the drawer and took one of the three letters. Passed to the stone and said:
"Take this and go to the academy to report on another day! The dean there will know which academy to assign you to after reading this letter!"

Shi Shi hurriedly stepped forward to take it with both hands, put it in his arms and clapped it carefully, and felt relieved after making sure that there would be no possibility of losing it.

Old man Fu looked at this simple boy, the more he looked at him, the more pleasing he was, he was much better than his grandsons!

"In the future, when the academy is on vacation, you can come to me to borrow books! If you don't understand, we can discuss it together!"

Stone's eyes lit up immediately!Until the time I saw the third sister, the joy has not subsided.

Wait for someone to leave!Only then did old man Fu open the drawer again, and tore off the other two undelivered letters inside, and said with satisfaction on his face:
"I wanted to give the middle court to this kid, but I didn't expect it to be a good material! It's more suitable to put it in the heavenly court! Haha.
After coming out of Fu's mansion, Sanyue took the stone to see the house that he bought for him, and was also very satisfied with the quiet study of Shishi, so Sanyue stretched out her hand to open the window and said:
"You can see the scenery outside from here. I thought you would like it, so I bought it. It happens to be not far from where I live!"

Shitou looked at such a big house, and the sister said she would give it to herself, and said a little uneasy:

"Third sister! I can live in a smaller house! It doesn't need to be so big!"

"Why can't it be used! In the future, you have a place to entertain a friend or something at home, so let him stay in your small broken house! Besides, Brother Tieniu came with you!
Just let him live with you!He still has some time to protect you, and if he buys you a few servants to wash, clean and cook, it won't be so empty! "

Shi Shi knew that Sister Sanyue would not change her mind, and when she was able to earn money in the future, she would return it to Sister Sanyue.

March closed the window and patted the dust off her hands.

"This house needs to be cleaned twice. It just so happens that you live with me first and I will show you around the capital. You can move here after it's cleaned up. Let's talk about going to the academy!"

Stone is in a hurry!

"Third sister! I want to go to the academy as soon as possible! I won't transfer to the capital for now, and it won't be too late for me to transfer again when the academy is on vacation! The letter from Grandpa Fu should be given to the dean earlier!"

March looked at Shitou's serious look and raised his eyebrows.

"Are you serious?"

Stone nodded seriously: "En!"

"Okay! Listen to you!"

Chongjing College
The old man at the door led Sanyue and Shitou all the way in, passing by classrooms with the sound of Lang Lang's books.

Sanyue pulled over the immobile stone and walked all the way through the corridor and passed two arches before arriving at a bamboo-built house and stopped.

The old man stepped forward and said:
"The dean has brought it!"

There was a sound from inside after a burst of noise.

"Let them in!"

"Yes! Please go in!"

Sanyue Shitou thanked the old man, opened the door and went in.

What catches the eye is an old man who is about the same age as old man Fu, and he is also wearing a long gown with a literati charm.

Stone stepped forward and bowed to hand over the letter.

"Student Yang Shitou has met the dean! This is a letter that Grandpa Fu asked the student to bring to you!"

Ran Yuande looked at the stone with a wisp of beard, stretched out his hand to take the letter and opened it to have a look. Seeing that the young man was assigned to the Tianyuan, his face was a little surprised, and he thought for a while and said:

"Since Old Man Fu recommended you here, this hospital will accept you! But if your knowledge is not satisfactory in the next monthly exam, then you are going to leave, even if no one pleads, it will be useless to know?"
