Chapter 76 Teacher

The noon sun shines down, and through the sparse shadows of ancient tung trees in the courtyard, a slanting landscape hangs down.

Looking at the tall young man in front of him, Mr. Wu felt vaguely familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before. It wasn't until Qiao Chen'an said his name that the old man remembered the scene in his memory and subconsciously took a step forward. , dare not say: "You, you are Chen'an?"

Qiao Chen'an performed the teacher's salute respectfully, with a hint of respect in his eyes, and said, "It's the student."

Mr. Wu took two steps forward excitedly, dropped the ruler in his hand, and held on to his palm. With a look of nostalgia in his eyes, he looked him over carefully. Seeing that there was a faint youthful appearance between his eyebrows, he was surprised and said: : "It really is you!"

Unexpectedly, the mischievous and thorny student at the beginning has turned into a handsome young man, so he can only secretly say that the world has changed.

Qiao Chenan said: "Sir, wait a moment!"

Turning his head to look at Huangfu Xuan under the hall, his face was full of seriousness, and he shouted: "Don't come here yet!"

In fact, ever since Qiao Chenan entered the house, Huangfuxuan's whole body has become listless. It's strange to say that the little guy is naturally fearless, and sometimes he doesn't even listen to his elder sister Jiaona's words. But he was afraid of Qiao Chen'an alone.

Seeing that he seemed to be really angry at this time, he didn't dare to laugh any more, lowered his head, and walked towards him like an angry girl.

"Apologize to sir!"

Huangfuxuan secretly raised his head and glanced at Qiao Chen'an. Seeing his serious expression and anger in his eyes, he hurriedly raised his head to look at Mr. Wu who was at the side, and said respectfully: "Sir, the students know their mistakes and shouldn't make trouble in the school, sir. punishment."

The little guy has such a clever mind, he knows that he has really gone too far this time, so he has to be as sincere as possible.

Mr. Wu sighed lightly, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, just study hard in the future!"

Hearing this, Huangfuxuan just had a smile of the rest of his life on his face, when he heard Qiao Chenan say: "How can this be done, this guy disrupts the discipline of the school and has no respect for his elders, how can he expose it so easily?"

Turning his head to look at Huangfu Xuan, he said in a deep voice: "Mister is not willing to punish you, but I want to punish you to copy the "Three Character Classic" a hundred times, and show it to me the day after tomorrow!"

Huangfuxuan wanted to say something more, but saw Qiao Chen'an's stern gaze, so he could only put on a bitter face, and said reluctantly in a long voice, "Yes——".

Mr. Wu said: "Why is it so..."

……

Under the hall, the two of them came to a side room behind the private school. On the table were two cups of tea, smoky and misty, Qiao Chenan said: "It's all because of my lax discipline, which brought so much trouble to you, teacher! "

Mr. Wu stroked his gray beard and said with a smile: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way. Although this boy is a bit naughty, he is born smart and his mind is early. If he is carefully trained, he will become a great weapon in the future."

There was a kindness in his eyes, and he sighed: "They are all good boys!"

Looking at Mr. Wu's much older appearance in front of him, Qiao Chen'an also felt a little emotional. When he was a teenager, he didn't think there was anything good about this old man. He made troubles in school a lot, and he suffered countless boards because of this. Only when I grow up will I feel that my husband is good, and I will recall the carefree youth.

After coming and going, studying classics and history hard, ten years of hard work, just for one day in high school!
This is the wish of many scholars in the world, but how many people can really step into the court in the end?The original dream has been submerged in the waves of the years, and perhaps I will only smile when I recall it by chance.

There are always a bunch of big and small dreams in life, but in the end, how many dreams are left in my heart?

But Mr. Wu is the guide who protects this little dream, and uses his meager light and heat to shine on the students like seedlings, allowing them to grow up.

When the spring silkworm dies, the silk will be exhausted; the wax torch will turn into ashes, and tears will be able to do it. This is the "teacher"!

Looking at the old man in front of him, Qiao Chenan felt a surge of respect, and asked, "Why do you come here to teach, sir?"

Mr. Wu said with a smile: "It's a long story. I taught you in Qiantang County for two years. I never thought about the inner room but fell ill. I had to put aside my private school affairs and seek medical treatment everywhere. Finally, I came to Hangzhou."

Qiao Chen'an was taken aback when he heard the words, at first he wondered why Mr. Wu left without making a sound, but he didn't expect this to be the reason, and asked, "Then is the old lady?"

Mr. Wu's expression darkened, and he sighed, "I've already left! I want to spend more time with her here, so I didn't go back to Qiantang."

Qiao Chen'an comforted him: "Life and death are determined by God, my condolences, sir, don't be too sad."

As long as you live in this world, you will face birth, old age, sickness and death, and the operation of the heavens has its own destiny. This is something that no one can change, and only those immortals can coexist with the world.

But still not immortal.

Mr. Wu said with a cheerful smile: "Don't talk about these things, but you, I heard that you have been accepted as a disciple by the dean of Chongwen Academy. This is something that no one can dream of! You must grasp it! Seize the opportunity, don't be as slack as you were when you were a child, otherwise you will be expelled from the school, let's see how you deal with yourself!"

Qiao Chenan nodded and said: "That's natural, thank you for your concern, sir."

Immediately, his face turned bitter, "Why does sir still remember those absurd things when I was young..."

"Haha! You, you!"

The old man stroked his beard and laughed loudly.

The two haven't seen each other for many years, and the gap between teachers and students has been reduced, and the sense of intimacy has increased. They chatted about family affairs and scriptures, and the old man is no longer as rigid as before.From time to time, loud laughter came out, and the afternoon passed by in a hurry.

Unknowingly, it was dusk, the sky was getting dark, the shadow of the moon floated, quietly climbed up the branches, most of the students dispersed, Qiao Chenan led Huangfuxuan to stand at the gate of the private school, and bid farewell to Mr. Wu.

"Sir, in the future, Ah Xuan will have to trouble you a lot. If he behaves disrespectfully again in the future, just tell me and the students will definitely punish him severely!"

Mr. Wu nodded and said with a smile, "Don't worry."

Qiao Chen was silent, cupped his hands and said: "Sir, go back to the house quickly, the weather is still cold, don't catch the wind and cold. The students will go back now!"

Under the moonlight, two figures, one large and one small, were walking in the alley. When Qiao Chenan was about to walk out of the end of the alley, Qiao Chenan looked back, but saw Mr. Wu still standing at the door and looking towards the distance, some hunched figures melting into the darkness , but the eye sockets were inexplicably sore.

In this world, there is a kind of people who do not seek fame or gain, but silently exert their residual heat in a corner that ordinary people cannot see, and they will not stop until the last flame is burned.

A few lines of words are light and thick for a lifetime.

But, who cares?

Qiao Chenan took Huangfuxuan's hand, turned around and walked towards the inn.

 Thanks to "Xingxing Luoluo" for the reward of one thousand, the next chapter... well, two in one.
