Master Xu immediately denied it, "Sir, she is talking nonsense! There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. It is clearly her youngest son who got into debt by gambling and had his legs broken, so he came to our school on purpose to extort money!"
"You are in the town and I am in the village. How do you know so clearly about my son's gambling?" Zhang Xiaoying stared at Master Xu, "It seems that Master Xu knows everything about our family."
"Hmph, who in the town doesn't know about your youngest son's broken leg? Zhang, don't think that just because I'm in the county, you can lie to me and deceive me!"
"That's strange. I asked my second son to go to school to bring my grandson back, but he didn't come back for a day. I was worried about them so I went to town, and then I saw you holding my grandson captive and not letting him go back.
of!"
"That's because I can't bear that such a good student of his is being delayed by you!"
Zhang Xiaoying smiled and said, "Since he is a good candidate for reading, which proves that he is very smart, Master Xu, would you like to explain why he has learned nothing after one year in school? Children who cannot read will always learn nothing after one year in school.
Can you learn a poem or two?"
Only then did Master Xu realize that Zhang Xiaoying had laid such a large circle, waiting for him here!
He originally wanted to have a quick victory, but he didn't expect that Zhang Xiaoying wouldn't go as he wanted.
She didn't even feel the slightest fear when she saw the county magistrate!
Zhang Xiaoying continued: "Now that the county magistrate is here, Master Xu, why don't you prove it? If you don't believe this old gentleman, don't you still believe in the county magistrate, a court official who came from the imperial examination?"
The county magistrate was all carried out, and Master Xu felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
He indeed relied on deception to set up a school and cultivate himself. With his sharp tongue, people thought he was a scholar who had read poetry and books.
In fact, he has not read many books.
If children from wealthy families were sent to his school, he would care for them and protect them privately, letting them play in the school so that they would praise him to their families when they went back.
Over time, Master Xu's reputation came out.
As for the children from poor families, he couldn't control them that much. When he occasionally gave lessons, he mainly focused on suppressing them.
Therefore, the more talented a child is in reading, the more completely he will be ruined, or he will be isolated and bullied by other students. In the end, no poor child will go out into the world, and no one will know how he cheated money.
"The citizen woman believes that you are the blue sky of Guangxing County. You are absolutely fair and just and will not favor anyone. I also ask you to come forward. If the citizen woman wrongly blamed Master Xu, the citizen woman is willing to apologize to the master in front of everyone in the town.
.”
With such a tall hat on, the magistrate felt comfortable wearing it. He said without thinking, "Mr. Xu, this is a trivial matter. Since she doesn't believe it, just prove it to her. You don't have to be rude with women."
Master Xu broke into a cold sweat and regretted his move to see the official.
If he were in the town, he could still fool the people, but the county magistrate was a scholar who had studied hard for more than ten years and was a Jinshi. How could he deceive the county magistrate with his little tricks?
If the county magistrate knew that he had deceived him, I'm afraid...
Master Xu did not dare to think further.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoying slightly raised her lips and continued to lie, "Master Xu? Don't you even believe the county magistrate? He is the most powerful scholar in our county. Besides him, who else can clear your name?"
"I don't think I deserve it. Chief Zhou Shanchang of Yinghua Academy is the teacher of the Prime Minister of the current dynasty." The county magistrate quickly denied and respectfully handed over in the direction of Yinghua Academy, "He is the number one scholar in this dynasty, and he has many talents all over the world.
"
"There is also Yinghua Academy in our county? Is it better than the county school? Why haven't I heard my children mention it? Is it true that only those who have passed the examination can go to school?" Zhang Xiaoying pretended to be shocked.
"You woman, you don't even know about Yinghua Academy?" The county magistrate was shocked, "That's Yinghua Academy run by Mr. Zhou, a place where students from all over the world flock to study!"
"I haven't heard it mentioned by children." Zhang Xiaoying shook her head, "I don't think I've heard it mentioned by anyone else."
The county magistrate glared at Master Xu angrily, "Don't any of your students know this? No wonder Mr. Zhou once sent someone to ask why no student from Ping'an Town came to apply for the academy. It turns out that you never told the students?"
Master Xu felt cold all over his body and kept wiping sweat. He hesitated for a long time and couldn't explain why.
Now, when the county magistrate saw Master Xu’s appearance, what else did he not understand?
The opening of Yinghua Academy in Guangxing County has always been the proudest thing of the county magistrate. He believed that Mr. Zhou selected it because of the outstanding people in Guangxing County.
It doesn't matter that Ping'an Town has not produced a scholar for many years, but he doesn't even know about Yinghua Academy accepting students? Isn't this a slap in the face?
"What the hell is going on? Are you recruiting from the real world? Mr. Zhou once said that students at Yinghua College do not have to be good at essays. If they are talented in arithmetic, they can also be admitted. Why don't you let the students know?"
Ling was furious.
Zhang Xiaoying said coldly: "Because the student has gone to Yinghua Academy and gained experience, he will naturally understand how he deceived and deceived him in the school. Of course he will try his best to conceal it!
"The reason why the civilian woman asked her grandson to drop out of school was because she heard about Yinghua Academy by accident, and because the child did not learn anything in the school, she asked her son to take the child back and try Yinghua Academy.
"I never thought that Mrs. Xu would stop the child from leaving, and even instigate the child to disown his parents. In addition, the woman also found out that Mrs. Xu was looking for people to recruit Shu Xiu, and it was not uniform."
"Nonsense, you are slandering!" Master Xu didn't expect that Zhang Xiaoying even knew this, and he was even more frightened, "Sir, don't listen to this woman confusing right and wrong. There are no students, but some students want to eat and drink in the school. This
I just collected a little more..."
"Then why did Rich Master Li and the others only need three or two bundles of cultivation? They didn't eat or drink in the school!" Zhang Xiaoying asked back.
"That, that's the reason, because..."
"Because they are rich, you don't dare to offend them, but it's different for ordinary people like us. After all, you think we can't reason with you."
"I, I won't mess around with an ignorant woman like you!"
Zhou Tao finally spoke, "Master Liu, until now, Master Xu still doesn't dare to prove whether he has taught his children. I think this matter should not be wasted any more time!"
Master Xu immediately pointed the finger at Zhou Tao, "Who do you think you are, dare to talk to adults like this? Sir, they are in the same group, don't be deceived by them..."
Dashun couldn't bear it anymore and roared angrily: "My husband is the headmaster of Yinghua Academy. How could it be that a shameless villain like you bites me?"
