Chapter 78: Liu Pu Who Wants to Cry
At the end of a class, Fang Xing put away the textbooks and assigned homework. One of the math problems required mixed calculations, and Liu Pu was a little confused.
I haven't learned it!
Seeing that Liu Pu was at a loss, Fang Xing said apologetically, "Well... your surname is Liu. You can ask the two of them for this question. Oh, and, from now on, you will have to study math by yourself every day. For homework, if you don't understand, you can also ask the two of them."
With two bright students, Fang Xing felt that his teaching job was really comfortable.
If there is something to do, the disciples should do their best!
Dare to disagree? The ruler is just for you!
Just when Fang Xing was in high spirits, Liu Pu had a constipated expression on his face, and he said under Zhu Zhanji and Ma Su's bowed heads, holding back a smile: "Brother Dehua, my younger brother's surname is Liu, I am Liu Pu!"
Liu Pu is already deeply doubting his choice at this moment. Is it reliable for a teacher who can't even remember the names of the students?
It is understandable to say that there are too many students, but there are only three students here, okay?
Fang Xing's smile froze, and then he said haha: "That little...Liu, the weather is a little cloudy today, my mind is a little confused, I remember wrong, I remember wrong."
In order to increase his persuasiveness, Fang Xing said with emotion: "Today is Xiao Liu's first day here, let's have lunch together."
Fang Xing hurriedly left after speaking, it would be a shame if he didn't leave.
When he was at the door, Fang Xing's body was suffocated, and then his steps became a little chaotic.
After Fang woke up and left, Zhu Zhanji went outside first, looked up at the bright sun in the sky, and turned around to see the stunned Liu Pu.
The weather is bright and sunny, where is the shade?
Fang Xing, who returned to the backyard, did not wait for Xiaobai to come over with the milk dog, and walked into the backyard.
While the coffee was still warm, Fang Xing found the container containing the knives, rummaged around, and reluctantly took out a few dog*leg knives.
If the students give the gift of appreciating teachers, the teacher has to return the gift.
The flower lady who got the order habitually took a lot of ingredients from Xin Laoqi's hands, and then started cooking with great interest.
"What did the young master say?"
While cutting the sashimi, Hua Niang recalled what Fang Xing said a few days ago, but after thinking for a long time, she finally managed to say: "It's a good thing to get the world's delicious food and cook it!"
Chunsheng, who was chopping vegetables, held back his laughter and almost chopped off his fingers.
In the backyard, Liu Pu met Zhang Shuhui, and after he went to the front hall, Zhang Shuhui asked Xiaobai with some confusion: "Xiaobai, why do I feel that this Liu Pu is always wanting to cry?"
Xiaobai sat down on the kang with the bell in his arms, frowned and pondered for a while, and then said with certainty: "Well, I think he seems to be complaining."
Zhang Shuhui shuddered, "Such a tall person, how can he have a grudge like a woman, don't talk nonsense!"
Liu Pu did have some resentment, but when he saw a table of delicious food, especially the bottle of wine that overflowed with fragrance after opening, all resentment was gone, and the only thing left was to salivate.
"Good wine!"
Liu Pu drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, and then looked at the wine bottle that Fang Xing was protecting, and couldn't help it.
"Eat vegetables, eat vegetables."
Fang Xing enthusiastically picked up a swimming crab and put it into Liu Pu's bowl, and said, "Drink less alcohol in the middle of the day, or you will be groggy all day long, so how can you do it?"
Liu Pu couldn't recognize the righteous Fang Xing. He said gratefully, "Thank you brother Dehua for teaching me. I drank too much at noon before, so I really can't do anything in the afternoon."
Well, after saying this, even Zhu Zhanji can't drink too much.
Liu Pu has a grandfather Hou, who is of course very knowledgeable in food, but he ate this meal today, which is rare.
"This is crocodile meat, braised in soy sauce is the most delicious."
"Is this earth dragon meat?"
Liu Pu was shocked,
But seeing that the other three were eating with gusto, he had no choice but to bite the bullet.
"nice!"
After eating, Fang Xing waited for the servant girl to serve tea, and took out three knives with a pained expression on his face.
"Come, come, one of you."
No matter how big or small a man is, there is no one who doesn't love knives. The weird dog-leg *knife immediately attracted the attention of Zhu Zhanji and the others.
The blade is black and not long, only the edge of the blade is gleaming.
Zhu Zhanji blurted out: "I'm afraid chopping firewood with this knife will be effortless!"
Fang Xing stretched out his hand to snatch the knife from him, but Zhu Zhanji quickly withdrew his hand, and then said with a smile: "Brother Dehua, I'm just talking, but I think this knife is very practical. You can carry it with you, and you can fight without any problem." .”
Seeing Zhu Zhanji put away the knife, Liu Pu thanked Fang Xing, then went outside the door and waved it a few times, and when he came back, he boasted excitedly: "It's a good knife! It feels very controllable when swinging it."
This knife is longer than a dagger, and its attack radius is not bad. In the wild, not only can you chop firewood, but you can also behead someone if necessary.
Seeing Liu Pu playing with the knife with a happy face, Ma Su hesitated in his heart, worried that he would be scolded by his mother when he returned home.
When he got home, Ma Su saw his mother was sewing, so he walked over, took out the knife, and said in a low voice, "Mother, the teacher gave me this knife today."
Mrs. Liu stuck the needle in her hair, blinked her astringent eyes, and said softly, "But you got it alone?"
"No, the teacher accepted another student today, he is the eldest son of Marquis Wu'an, so he gave each of them a knife."
Mrs. Liu looked at Ma Su's expression carefully, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "Su Er, don't worry too much. Your teacher is pedantic, so he must have a reason for doing so."
A smile appeared on Ma Su's face, he knew that the knife was saved.
Mrs. Liu pondered for a while and asked, "Then the son of Marquis Wu'an is at peace with you?"
Thinking of her son actually studying with Lord Hou's son, Liu felt a little nervous, for fear that her son's stubborn temper would offend others again.
Ma Su smiled and said: "Liu Pu is very straightforward, and he even gave me a wooden monkey today."
Although Liu Pu has a bold personality, his mother is a lady who is skilled in routines. After learning that his son was going to study with the emperor's grandson, while preparing the gift, he sent someone to investigate the situation of Fang Xing's other disciple, Ma Su, that's why he prepared the gift so well.
However, Liu Pu's mother originally prepared a set of the Four Treasures of the Study for Ma Su, a "senior brother", but Liu Pu despised it. In the end, he found this little wooden monkey that he played with a few years ago from his Duobao Pavilion as a gift, and Ma Su really liked it.
Liu was relieved when she heard that, and said with a smile: "I won't thank your teacher, but you still have to pay close attention to your studies, and give it a try when the time comes."
Ma Su responded: "Mother, don't worry, the teacher has already made a plan. He said that I am too young, even if I pass the exam, there will be many bumps in my official career, so it is better to accumulate more experience now."
"That's the reason. With your teacher watching over you, Mother will feel at ease..."
