Buddhism

Chapter 31

The surface of the river is sparkling, and the fish in the crystal-clear water swim happily in it.The day was beautiful and the wind was clear, and Kong Qing looked sideways at Chi Tong who stood shoulder to shoulder with him. The breeze blew up the broken hair on his forehead, swayed from side to side and gently brushed his face, his eyes under the curled eyelashes were like pools of deep and quiet looking into the distance.Exquisite and three-dimensional facial features, only one side is so impeccable.

Kong Qing came back to his senses, his eyes fell to Chitong's straight and broad shoulders, he lowered his eyes to look at himself, then raised his head to look at the top of Chitong's head, compared it secretly, feeling a little discouraged.Even now, his height only reaches Chitong's shoulders, and after all these years, he is still not tall enough.

Aware of Kong Qing's gaze, Chi Tong retracted his gaze, looked down and saw Kong Qing pursing his lips, with a dissatisfied expression on his face, and asked, "Why?"

Kong Qing pursed his lips, feeling very unwilling: "I have grown up for so many years, why am I not as tall as you?"

Chi Tong raised the corners of Yang's mouth, and his brows and eyes were a little gentle: "Compared with other people of the same age, you are already considered tall."

Kong Qing raised his eyebrows: "But I just want to compare with you!"

There is imperceptible pampering in the deep eyes of the red pupil, he smiled and said: "You are only so old now, so naturally you still have some growth, so why worry?"

Kong Qing thought about it, and he was right, he was only sixteen now, and there was indeed a long way to go, and there were still many days to grow.The original gloomy mood instantly turned into a clear sky, and he smiled firmly: "Then I must eat more, so that I can surpass you!"

Chi Tong saw his own reflection in Kong Qing's smiling eyes, and the smile on the corner of his mouth increased a bit: "It may not be taller than me, but if you keep eating, you will definitely be fatter than me."

Kong Qing is like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, he frowned angrily: "Don't say I'm fat!" He squinted at Chi Tong, and said dissatisfiedly: "It's not because you don't eat, I can only eat more, Otherwise, it’s not good to waste other people’s thoughts in vain!”

"Yes, you ate it reluctantly, and you really shouldn't blame you for this blissful appearance now!" Chitong shook her head and echoed helplessly.

Seeing that Chitong's disagreement was so obvious, Kong Qing felt that he was being ridiculed, and he darkened his face and said in a deep and cold voice: "It's too much!"

On Sora's white and rosy cheeks, a pair of black and white eyes were black and bright, and at this moment he was staring at the red pupils, and his red lips were slightly raised.Seeing this, Chitong found it very interesting, and couldn't help but continue to tease him: "I don't want to keep gaining weight, I should go out for a walk every day after dinner."

Kong Qing was like a ball suddenly deflated, his shoulders slumped, and he didn't see the aggressiveness just now.He pursed his lips and didn't speak, obviously he didn't agree with Chitong's method.

Ever since Qing Mo, Mu Youfang and Nan Ming left, the days became quieter and quieter. Kongqing chanted scriptures and Buddha all day long, but he always felt that there was a little regret in this too dull and deserted life.

When I went down the mountain with Chitong to buy daily necessities in the town, I saw groups of children playing with mud, bugs, fighting crickets, etc. Time is wasted on important things.

Kong Qingji thought about it, a flash of inspiration flashed, and he immediately said excitedly: "I can teach them to read and write."

He asked Chitong, and Chitong didn't have any opinion about it, as long as he wanted, he could do anything.

At this moment, Kong Qing was like a lost little beast that had found its way back.He was elated, and first told the people in Mu's Village that he would go down the mountain without charging Shu Xiu to teach the children to read and write, and he could send the children here if he wanted.He also told the people in Mujia Village that they could also inform the children from other villages to come together.The news spread quickly, and in just two days, fifty or sixty children of different ages gathered under Yunshan Mountain.

Mujiacun is a well-known village in the surrounding area. Just a year ago, a sensational figure appeared in Mujiacun. No great honor.For their mud legs in the countryside, this fate is like the smoke from their ancestors.

Now Mu Youfang is working in the Hanlin Academy in the middle of the court, and he will be promoted again in the near future.In the future, they will go to a higher level, and the salaries of high-ranking officials will enjoy inexhaustible glory and wealth. This is the life they dream of.

It is said that Mu Youfang was able to get such great luck, all because of the aura of being exiled from the cloud mountain.Now I heard that the little master Kong Qing on the cloud mountain is willing not to teach Shu Xiu, they are overjoyed, how can they miss such a good opportunity.Those who got the news hurriedly brought all the children who were half-aged and young in the family over.They are excited about things, and they all want their son to become a dragon.

Kong Qing looked at the dark group of people, and was speechless for a moment.He thought that there would not be too many people, at least not as many as now.With so many people at this time, it really caught him off guard.

The adults who brought their children here, after seeing Kongqing, were all smiling and talking endlessly, and the bustling scene was so lively.

In the end, it was Chitong who came forward to stabilize the situation.

There are too many people, and it is not easy for him to occupy other people's houses. If it is empty, he said that school will start in two months, and he needs to build a school first.

He and Chitong found a flat land under Yunshan Mountain, and planned to build a larger yard as a school.When the people in Mujia Village heard about it, they all came to help without saying a word.Open the school empty-handed, and don't need to repair.It is really a great gift for them. After being a poor farmer for a lifetime, if the family can produce an official, even if it is death, they will be able to smile at Jiuquan.

With everyone's help, the house was built in less than two months.A courtyard with four entrances and three exits was built, covering a large area.There is a plaque hanging at the entrance of the courtyard, with three golden words "Yun Academy" on it

This is a plaque given to them by Mu Family Village, and the words on the plaque are blank.Originally, he wanted Chitong to inscription, but Chitong ignored it indifferently, never loving these things.Kong Qing had to come up with this matter. Kong Qing always likes to avoid complexity and keep it simple. The academy belongs to children, so it should be as simple as possible, so he directly called Yun Academy.

On the first day of school, Kongqing explained their teaching mode to the parents. They only taught basic knowledge, and they were not responsible for the scientific examinations, because the children were of different ages and it was difficult to teach them.In addition, only he and Chitong have limited energy, and it is really impossible to bear their high expectations.The greater the hope given to them, the more often than not the more unbearable the disappointment.

Everyone has their own talents and opportunities. They have given Mu Youfang's efforts to Shinhwa. If they accept their hopes, they will probably cause some discomfort in the future.Rather than causing a gap in everyone's hearts in the future, it is better to put an end to it early in the morning.

Therefore, Kongqing only teaches the most basic knowledge, and boys and girls can come to Yun Academy to study.If you want to go to Beijing to catch the exam in the future, after you pass the Tongsheng exam at Yun Academy, you have to go to other more formal colleges to study, and then continue to take the provincial exam.What Kong Qing meant was to let them understand that the road ahead depends on their own hard work, and the school he opened should only do good deeds and not ask for anything else.

When everyone heard this, most of the intense heat in their hearts was drenched.Most of their families are poor and poor. After the child has passed the Tongsheng examination, they may not have the strength to allow the child to continue to be a scholar.In short, even if their children are very talented, they have no money to support him to move forward.Most of all the enthusiasm and expectations were extinguished, and people looked depressed and unhappy.

Kong Qing understood their difficulties, and he didn't want to watch them stand in a stalemate.He only said that school will officially start after three days, and Yun Xuetang welcomes them.

After three days, the number of people who came to Yun Academy to report was obviously much less.There was also a child who was the oldest fifteen or sixteen years old before, but now the oldest child is only ten years old.It seems that after careful consideration, they left their older and stronger children to take care of the housework at home and help with farming and mulberry affairs.Younger children are too young to do any rough work, so let them go and learn more things are always right.After learning how to read and settle accounts, I can go to the town to find an easy job and earn some money to support my family.

Although Kong Qing has regrets and regrets, both he and Chi Tong have limited abilities, so they should not be too loud.Therefore, I can only sigh that I have done my best, and I am worthy of my heart.Everyone has their own way, I only hope they can be safe and healthy.

On the first day of school, there were 36 children in total.The youngest is four years old, and the oldest is ten years old. This age gap is also somewhat large.So he divided the four to six-year-old children into one room, making a total of twelve people.Seven to ten years old are divided into one room, a total of 24 people.

From then on, the Yun Academy will be formally established for teaching.Children between the ages of four and six are very playful and noisy, so most of the time it is Kong Qing who teaches.Chitong is unsmiling, and her teaching is quite strict, most of them are teaching older children from seven to ten years old.

After their enlightenment stage is over, they will re-adjust the shift issue. In short, it is a step-by-step process, which can be regarded as impressive.The days are no longer monotonous and leisurely, but more joyful and worrying.Kong Qing enjoyed it, Chi Tong was indifferent and demure.

It has been three years since Yunxuetang was opened.With the company of the children, Kong Qing has a much more cheerful disposition.There will be a two-day holiday at the beginning of each month, the middle of the month and the end of the month, and a six-day holiday in a month.Parents who come to pick up their children during the holidays will bring their own local products, or homemade hot cakes and other food to Kongqing and Chitong.

Kong Qing and Chi Tong refused many times but failed to stop their enthusiasm, so they had to stay.If the food received can be spared for two days, it will be released. When the children come back to class, they will cook or distribute it to the children.In winter, Kong Qing ate a lot but didn't like to move, so he gained some weight.

At this time in early summer, changing the unlined clothes will make it more rounded.Seeing that Chitong was very pleasing, he couldn't help but tease him a few words.

In fact, Kong Qing is not that fat, but his face is rounder.Every time Chitong sees his fair and round face with a pair of big shiny black eyes, he always feels that if he has long hair, he will be a girl.There is less masculinity of boys, and more innocence and cuteness of girls.

They had to rest for two days, but they could only rest for one day at most, and the next day they had to drive the ox cart to the town to buy some fruits and vegetables.Because some children's homes are too far away, the children will eat and live in Yunxuetang when they are not on holiday, so they need to prepare the children's food.

The rice is cooked empty-handed, and he will wash and cut the dishes with the children who are out of class first, and cook them when Chitong is out of class.The children of poor families are in charge of the house early, and when they get used to it, they are no longer restrained. The older children who can cook will also take the initiative to invite Ying to cook.

Chitong is happy and relaxed, and only cooks one or two dishes a day, and sometimes he can get by without cooking at all.There are not many dishes back and forth, and there is nothing to change, and the children can basically cook.Although the taste was a bit bad, seeing that Kong Qing was eating happily, he no longer monopolized the power and let them play freely.
