School Days in Ancient Times [MTL] (Completed)

Chapter 5 Casual School

In the evening at You hour, the Guozixue bell chimes three times.

Jixian Gate opened in response.

Accompanied by the creaking sound, the boys and servants waiting outside the main entrance stretched their necks and looked inside, looking for the figure of their little master.

After a while, some students came out of the gate talking and laughing in groups. For a while, the square at the entrance of Guozixue was as lively as a market, classmates said goodbye, horses neighed, and coachmen from various prefectures cracked their whips.

Ye Mian came out a little late today, he had archery class in the afternoon, and the school's shooting range was outside, Ye Mian had the cheek to urinate four times, and the cold wind was blowing outside for nearly two hours, and he was already frozen solid.

As soon as the school bell rang, Wei Angyuan and Li Zhaoxian took him back to Qirui Academy, roasted in the school room for a while before going out.

The three of them talked as they walked out.

Li Zhao: "It's going to take a while to get warmer, or you don't have to take the two shooting classes. I'll go back and let my father talk to Teacher Yang."

"Okay!" Ye Mian hurriedly stopped: "Let my father know about it, maybe it will hurt me, and if he catches up with him, the old man is not going well, and he can still beat him!"

"Your father is real." Wei Angyuan curled his lips when he heard it, but he was an elder after all, so he didn't dare to say the whole thing.

"He doesn't like me right now," Ye Mian said nonchalantly, "Besides, if I can skip the archery class, can I still skip the imperial class? Anyway, it's only been two months, I won't freeze to death."

The teaching content of Guozixue in the Dawen Dynasty is very rich, including rites, music, archery, imperialism, calligraphy, and mathematics. It is completely different from the exam-oriented education in his previous life. In addition to cultural courses, they have to learn aristocratic etiquette, music theory, etc. Dance rhyme, archery, horseback riding, etc., and even I Ching gossip and sex education.

Li Zhao sighed helplessly, "Before your elder brother comes back from his business in Yangzhou, don't mess with him, if you can't do it, just hide."

Ye Mian nodded his head helplessly, if he can't be provoked, he has to hide.

Before leaving Jixian Gate, Ye Mian saw Feng Jin, his family, grinning and waving at him outside the gate, and the servants of Wei Angyuan and Li Zhao's family were standing beside him. Now people are also interesting. After a long time with each other, they naturally know who the little master usually makes good friends with, and they consciously form a group with clear boundaries.

There were not many people in the square, the carriages of the three families rushed directly to the main entrance of Jixian Gate, Ye Mian didn't greet them politely, said "See you tomorrow" and jumped into the carriage.

After returning to Yefu, Ye Mian did not go back to Baofeng Courtyard, but went directly to his grandmother's Shouyunzhai, where he was going to have dinner tonight.

The old lady of the Ye Mansion is sincere in worshiping Buddhism and is a vegetarian every day, so she does not let her children and grandchildren eat with her on weekdays, but Ye Shilang loves the old lady because he is afraid that she will be lonely, so he will bring his wife and children to accompany her to eat vegetarian meals with her all day long every month. Later, this became an unwritten rule of the Ye Mansion.

The little girls at the gate of Shouyun Zhai competed to lift the curtain for Ye Mian, his mother and his sister-in-law had already arrived, and were talking with his grandmother in the inner room, and the maid Wu Yangyang who brought them to serve stood on the ground, very lively.
