I Studied Abroad in Modern Times - Chapter 48

Chapter 48 Interpretation

Zheng family.

Since there was no study room, Zheng Fa simply set up a small dining table and wrote at his desk in the yard.

The younger sister Zheng Shan was running around in the yard wearing clothes newly made by Zheng’s mother.

She didn’t dare to disturb her brother, so she could only run around the yard, or pull the grass in the corner, or pick up a stone and scratch it on the ground, glancing in the direction of Zheng Fa from time to time.

Until Zheng Fa raised his head.

“Brother! Have you finished writing?” Zheng Shan ran over, pulled Zheng Fa’s sleeves, and tiptoed to look at the table curiously.

In the room, Mother Zheng, who was still busy at the loom, spoke: “Shan’er, don’t disturb your brother’s study.”

Zheng Shan curled her lips, but still let go of Zheng Fa’s sleeves obediently.

“Mom, it’s okay, I just wrote this for my little sister.” Zheng Fa pinched her little sister’s face and said with a smile.

“Written for me? Can I read now?”

Zheng Shan’s eyes lit up. She lay on Zheng Fa’s knees and looked at the table. She saw two books with wet ink on them.

There are a few words on the cover of the book above.

“Small…”

“The first volume of primary school mathematics.” Zheng Fa taught the little girl to read.

Since moving to Zhao’s house, he has wanted to let his little sister study, but this is not easy to do.

Now the family actually relies on Zheng Fa’s monthly money to survive. Although they have enough food and clothing, they are new to the country and have no savings.

Zheng’s mother had always wanted to find some work in a tailor shop, but when several shops asked about her origins and found out that Zheng’s mother was from a farmer’s family, they felt that she had no skills.

So they can’t afford the little sister’s repair yet.

The money issue is easy to talk about, but the most important thing is actually the safety issue: the younger sister has to go out of the house to go to school, and she can only be picked up and dropped off by Zheng’s mother, which makes Zheng Fa feel uneasy.

During these days, the little girl had no books to study, and Zheng’s mother did not allow her to run around in Zhao’s house to avoid bumping into the nobles, so she could only play alone in the small courtyard.

“What, you have nothing to do recently?” Seeing how excited she was, Zheng Fa knew that it was a bit uncomfortable for the lively little girl to be trapped in a small courtyard.

“Something’s wrong!” Zheng Shan shook her head: “I will cook with my mother in the morning, and then wait for my brother to have lunch. Then I will cook with my mother, and then wait for my brother to have dinner.”

Zheng Fa touched his little sister’s head: “Then you want to study?”

“Study!” The little sister nodded for a while: “My mother said that my brother just studied and became a book boy. He can buy me delicious food and new clothes. I also want to study!”

“What are you studying for?” Zheng Fa asked.

“Mom doesn’t have new clothes to wear yet!”

Zheng Fa smiled, held his little sister in his arms, pointed at the “Primary School Mathematics Volume 1” and said, “Brother will teach you this in the evening, remember to study hard.”

“Okay, I will definitely learn well!”

The ignorant little girl made perhaps the heaviest oath in her short life.

Seeing his little sister happily flipping through a new book she couldn’t understand, Zheng Fa picked up another book and walked to the study room.

He has thought about teaching mathematics to his little sister for a long time. Even if it does not involve immortal knowledge, mathematics is very useful in daily life in the Xuanwei world. However, he is cautious by nature and does not feel safe in Zhuangzi.

Today, he has mastered the “Spiritual Crane Body”. After he thought he had a certain ability to protect himself, he took it out and taught it to his little sister.

As for the other book, it was prepared for Young Master Seven – “Junior High School Mathematics Volume 1”.

This was what he came up with by borrowing his brain plan and Old Man Bai’s words.

After all, Old Man Bai is only one person and his time is limited. Facing the endless runes, he is unable to do anything. Moreover, he is indeed very busy and goes on strike from time to time. To be honest, Zheng Fa is not very relieved.

He must reserve new brains, and Tang Lingwu has great potential.

He has no intention of disseminating knowledge like “Topology” that may involve the Immortal Sect.

But “Junior High School Mathematics” can. For him, the biggest role of this book is to screen out potential brains. The first one is the Seventh Young Master.

…

In the study room, the seventh young master stood in front of Zheng Fa’s desk, gently flipping through a stack of paper with runic diagrams on the table, and pursed his lips tightly.

“Master?” Gao Yuan, who felt that he was much closer to the seventh master, looked at his gloomy face and asked in surprise: “What’s wrong with you?”

“How long has Zheng Fa been here?”

The seventh young master silently put down the picture in his hand and suddenly asked.

“Less than two months?”

“It took less than half a month for him to start learning “Comprehensive Explanation of Talisman Pictures”…”

As he spoke, the bitterness on the seventh young master’s face became stronger and stronger.

“Master?”

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

“He has analyzed more Yuan Fu in the past half month than I have analyzed in three years…” As he said that, the seventh young master turned around and took out a book “Supplement to the Complete Explanation of Symbols: Basic Yuan Fu” from the bookshelf. , opened it and compared it with the patterns Zheng Fa left on the paper one by one, then put it down slumped: “They are all still correct.”

He turned to look at Gao Yuan, his eyes dull: “Tell me, how come the gap between people is so big?”

Gao Yuan felt like she wanted to cry: “Master, I have experienced what you said a long time ago… I have asked myself this question a hundred times.”

“I feel now that we are close friends!” The seventh young master put his arm around Gao Yuan’s shoulders: “Among so many book boys, you are the one who suits my best!”

As soon as Zheng Fa entered, he found that the atmosphere between the Seventh Young Master and Gao Yuan was much more harmonious than usual, making him feel like an outsider.

“Zheng Fa, what are you holding?”

“Oh, I have a book. I thought it might be useful for Fu Dao. Isn’t the eldest lady coming back?” Zheng Fa handed over the “Junior High School Mathematics Volume 1” and said, “Although this book has no effect for the time being. , but it’s better to learn early.”

The seventh young master was stunned and seemed to remember something: “Is this… given to you by the person behind you?”

“Behind the back?” Zheng Fa blinked and guessed some of the seventh young master’s intentions, so he could only say vaguely: “Forget it.”

There is a world of people behind us, and I don’t know which one you are talking about.

“Did you learn this book to have the talent of Talisman Dao you have today?” The seventh young master said excitedly as he glanced at the Yuan Talisman Diagram on Zheng Fa’s desk.

“You can say that, but this is just the basis.” Zheng Fa thought for a while and felt that this was not a bad thing.

“Master, among all the book boys I have, Zheng Fa has to be the best!”

Behind him, Gao Yuan looked at his new confidant and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something dirty but had nothing to say.

The seventh young master took the book handed over by Zheng Fa, his hands were shaking a little. He looked at the name on the cover and read softly: “”Junior High School Mathematics Volume 1″, this name is a magic trick from the immortal family at first glance!”

“…can you interpret it?”

Zheng Fa was quite curious as to how he could tell.

“At the beginning, it should refer to the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, when heaven and earth were not born, which means that this secret method points directly to the ancient times! In the middle, it refers to the great road, indicating that this is the righteous method of the Immortal Family, and may contain the meaning of moderation.” Young Master Zhu Qi frowned: “What is the meaning of this mathematics? Is it related to Yi Shu? Could it be that the great man who wrote this book is from Confucianism?”

After finishing speaking, he said a little embarrassedly: “I am not very knowledgeable and cannot fully understand it. I still need to learn more.”

“You understand very well and profoundly.” Zheng Fa praised: “I think it is deeper than the person who wrote this book.”

Holding the book, the seventh young master was silent for a while: “Actually, my sister came back to prepare me for participating in the Fairy Fair.”

“Xianpinhui?” Zheng Fa looked at the seventh young master with some confusion, why didn’t he say anything before.

“…” The seventh young master avoided Zheng Fa’s gaze, looking a little embarrassed.

…I see, he’s another thief who wants to work hard secretly.
