Chapter 72 Section 71

When we arrived at Dongcheng No. 1 Girls' Primary School, the headmaster was very nervous when he heard that the envoy and "Second Young Master Yuan" were coming together.He rushed out to greet him, and asked the school officer to ring the bell to summon the staff to greet him, but Fu Zengxiang stopped him. "Don't alarm everyone!" He said, "I just invite Zhou Di to come and see me." "It's in class, I'll send someone to notify her." "No! No! Just to see her, how to teach students. Please lead the way, let's take a look outside her classroom."

"Yes!" The 60-year-old principal led the way with his waist bent. Going out through a corner door and entering another courtyard, they immediately heard the melodious sound of the piano. When they approached and looked in through the window, they saw a slender figure sitting behind the organ, playing the piano and singing at the same time. The voice of the bite is very accurate.Yuan Kewen knew the melody quite well, and he could hear it very quickly. What he sang was: "For more than four thousand years, the female world has been underworld, and the great power suddenly opened up a new one. Binbin's literary education enlightens Hongyu, and it brings together a group of phoenixes. A group of young ladies from all over the world gathered together, Hong Fu Da Hua Jun. Painting Di Keer, Burning Qiu Xunzi, incomparably deep pottery. In the twentieth century, the sky is changing, who can inspire Kunwei? One person can wake up a hundred people, because of the respect of the teacher. The big horse in the world is responsible for women. Qianjun, peaches and plums today, and Lanzhi when he is, treasure a century-old body."

As soon as the singing ended, the bell rang, and Zhou Di got up, only to find someone outside the window, and shouted in surprise and joy: "Teacher!" Then he bowed respectfully. "You finish class first, please come to the principal's office." "Yes!" Only then did Zhou Di realize that there was a young man behind Fu Zengxiang. He couldn't see his face clearly at a glance.Just when I changed my mind, I could only see the back if I wanted to see it. So after class, he took the singing book and walked to the principal's office. When he was about to reach the door, he suddenly felt timid, as if he felt something was wrong.I slowed down my pace and thought about it for a while, and finally remembered that the chalk dust in one hand seemed embarrassing.

Therefore, she turned around and went to the teachers' lounge first, washed her hands and looked at herself in the mirror. Her sideburns were a little hairy and her powder was uneven, so she took out the powder box and small toothbrush she carried with her, and groomed herself consciously. Now that he could see people, Fang dusted off his clothes again, and went to the principal's office to see the teacher. As soon as he entered the room, Yuan Kewen stood up first, took a step back, stood with hands down, and bowed his head slightly.Zhou Di came from a family and was well versed in etiquette. Seeing that he was so respectful, as if he was welcoming an elder, he couldn't help being very surprised.

"Taoru," Fu Zengxiang introduced to her, "This is Yuan Gongbao's second young master." Zhou Di was both surprised and delighted, his eyes lit up immediately.I have heard for a long time that Yuan Kewen is a famous young man, Ding Huikang, the son of Ding Richang, and Wu Baochu, the son of Wu Changqing, another noble son without the slightest vulgarity. While she was still smiling reservedly, Yuan Kewen had already bowed and shouted, "Teacher Zhou!" "Young Master Han Yun, don't dare to be that!" Zhou Di returned the gift calmly and calmly.

"Taoru," Fu Zengxiang said again, "Yuan Gongbao wants to invite you to be a teacher, and I have already agreed for you. Yuan Gongbao originally wanted to come to invite you in person, but I don't think that is necessary. Brother Bao Cen is the representative, and it is the same. " "Teacher," Zhou Di was a little apprehensive, "I'm afraid I'm not up to the task." "It's not that you won't be incompetent." Fu Zengxiang said again: "Your principal has already agreed to let you go to the Yuan family's library until the winter vacation. Brother Bao Cen has brought Guan Shu."

So Yuan Kewen picked up the worship box at hand and said: "Kewen is ordered by his parents to respect Yuxuan!" "You don't allow me to think about it!" Zhou Wei looked at Fu Zengxiang with a look of embarrassment on his face, "Teacher, I am really terrified." "Go ahead!" Fu Zengxiang said: "You can graduate because of the benefit of Yuan Gongbao's study in Beiyang, so you can accept Guan Shu!" "The teacher said so, and I have nothing to say." Zhou Di turned around and took the worship box with both hands, and said to Yuan Kewen, "Mr. Han Yun, I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

"Heavy words, serious words!" At this moment, Yuan Kewen felt that Zhou Toxiu was favored by others, so he said to Fu Zengxiang: "Uncle Yuan, my mother has something to say, and the family school is not like a formal school. It seems that there is no need to set a deadline. If Teacher Zhou’s daily life is inconvenient, it’s better to go to the library early, so that my sister-in-law can enjoy the spring breeze early. As for the official start of classes, it’s better to postpone it until the beginning of the new year.” "Daoru, what do you think?" Fu Zengxiang didn't know that Yuan Kewen was pretending to pass on his mother's life, so he persuaded her, "Since Mrs. Gong Bao has such a kind intention, I think you should follow it!

The living and eating in Yuan's mansion are much more comfortable after all. " "Yes! I obey the teacher's orders." "Then, Mr. Zhou, please set a date so that we can send someone over to wait on the resettlement." "Here," Zhou Tie replied, "I want to see the Lingtang first and then make a decision!" "Yes!" Yuan Kewen asked, "Send a car to pick you up tomorrow?" "No, no need!" Zhou Di asked the teacher again: "I want to ask the teacher to take me to see Mrs. Gongbao." "That's impossible! I have to go back to Tianjin early tomorrow morning." Fu Zengxiang replied, "Actually, it's the same when Brother Bao Cen comes to pick him up."

Zhou Di nodded, and said: "It's presumptuous to mention it, I don't know yet, who am I discussing with?" "It's my two concubine mothers and two sister-in-laws." Yuan Kewen said: "Maybe my wife will also ask the teacher for advice." Zhou To was quite surprised, "So there are two concubines!" She said, "It's so embarrassing to be in the teacher's seat." "That doesn't matter." Fu Zengxiang said: "My two concubines, I'm afraid they are not as old as you." "Yes." Yuan Kewen replied: "One is the sixth concubine, eighteen years old this year; the other is the seventh concubine who is younger, only sixteen years old." He asked casually, "What is the age of Teacher Zhou?"

Zhou Di blushed, and immediately replied seriously: "I am twenty this year." "That's a year older than me." It turned out that he was only nineteen years old!I don't know if you are married yet?Before I finished thinking about it, I immediately remembered that he once said that "my wife should also ask for advice", and then blamed myself, the words were still in my ears, why can't I remember?And then he became vigilant again, he was not like this usually, why did he look fascinated at this moment? Thinking of this, I noticed that my face was hot, afraid that others would have noticed it!Anxious in my heart, I became more and more coy and uneasy.Fu Zengxiang was very surprised by what he saw, but he didn't have time to think about it. He just thought it was time to leave. When he stood up, Yuan Kewen rushed to the front and said, "It's time to say goodbye! How about sending a car to pick up Teacher Zhou tomorrow afternoon?" "There is no class tomorrow afternoon." "Okay! It's a deal." Yuan Kewen bowed to the principal again, and resigned with Fu Zengxiang. The headmaster naturally wanted to send it off, and when Zhou Di also wanted to send it off, Fu Zengxiang stopped her and said, "Just stay." "The teacher is here, why don't you send it off?" At that time, the sky changed suddenly and the north wind blew heavily. The hem of Yuan Kewen's thin velvet robe was fluttering, revealing a pair of white spun silk trousers underneath.Zhou Yu really wanted to ask: "Are you cold?" But then he blamed himself: "Blowing up a pool of spring water, what are you doing?"
