Chapter 163: Stubborn boy

A genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (Vertex Chinese),

the fastest update! No ads! As night falls, pedestrians on the road return

home after a few quarters, the sky is completely dark. Wanjia lights are on.

To the northeast of Chang'an City, many squares are close to the imperial

palace, so here are mostly the residences of high-ranking officials and

nobles. To the northwest of Chang'an City, because it is close to the West

Market, the squares here gather a large number of wealthy businessmen, Hu and

Persians, etc. people. Therefore, the layout of the market in Chang'an has

always been said to be "rich in the east and rich in the west".

At the southwest foot of Chang'an City, Guiyifang.

Far away from the prosperous place, it is mostly a gathering place for poor

families.

In a dilapidated courtyard, lights were lit up. Inside the house, a little boy

about ten years old was holding a little girl's hand and teaching her to

write.

The little girl is about seven or eight years old, and her complexion is a

little yellow, obviously malnourished. She seemed to think that writing was a

lot of fun, and from time to time there was an innocent smile on her face.

"Haoer, ya ya, have dinner!"

A woman in coarse cloth and grey clothes walked in with a vegetable bowl and

said with a smile.

"Oh~, eat!"

The little girl cheered, broke free from the boy's arms, ran to the dining

table, drooling while looking at the food in the dish.

The boy shook his head amusedly, and asked the woman, "Mother, will you not

come back for dinner tonight?"

The grey-clothed woman was taken aback and said, "Your father is helping

people unload the goods on Bashang. I'm afraid he won't be back tonight.

Haoer, don't worry about that, let's eat first!"

The little boy agreed in a low voice, and silently returned to the dinner

table and sat down.

"Come on, Hao'er, eat an egg. This is for my mother when she was working at Hu

Yuan's house today. His little lady stuffed her for the mother. You will eat

to fill your brain, so you might get a champion in the coming year! "

The wife peeled an egg carefully, put it in the little boy's bowl, and said

lovingly.

The little boy looked at the eggs in the bowl, and then at the drooling Ya-Ya

next to him. He clamped the eggs into the Ya-Ya bowl with chopsticks and said:

"Mother, the child has eggs to eat at noon at the Imperial College. Give the

eggs to the little girl!"

He thought in his heart: This monthly exam must get the first place, so that

he can take his parents and younger sisters to the Zuixianlou for a big meal.

I heard that the wine in Zuixianlou can be called a god. Great wine, my father

had a good wine a long time ago, but in these years he has never drunk wine

again in order to support his studies, so I must take my father to taste it;

The little girl hasn’t eaten meat for a long time. The gnawed chicken, lion

head and braised pork from Zuixianlou will surely like it;

Zuixianlou's Dongpo meat and twice-cooked meat Aniang must like to eat.

The grey-clothed woman originally stretched out her hand to stop, but when her

son said so, she could only give up. She sighed and said:

"Haoer, I heard you say yesterday that your school is going to have a new

husband today, how about it? Is the new husband teaching well?"

This little boy is Meng Wenhao from the School of Mathematical Sciences. In

class today, Li Zexuan ordered his name to do a problem on the blackboard.

Meng Wenhao smiled and said: "Mother, you must also know our new husband. He

is the man from Lantian County who offered to the court a while ago. He has

his own arithmetic ability and is the most knowledgeable person a child has

ever seen. "

The gray-clothed woman was obviously taken aback. She was surprised: "It

turned out to be a Lixian man. This man is a great benefactor to our poor

family. Haoer, you can learn your skills with the Lixian man. You must not let

him down. teach."

The corner of Meng Wenhao's mouth twitched, and he thought, if his husband

knew that someone called him an old man, how would he feel.

..............

On the second day, the wind was sunny.

"Mother, the child has gone to the Imperial College!"

After Meng Wenhao had breakfast, he shouted to his mother who was clearing the

dishes in the kitchen.

The woman walked out and asked, "Hao'er, didn't you say yesterday that you are

taking a break today? Why are you still going?"

Meng Wenhao turned around and said, "Mother, Mr. has left a question

yesterday, and the boy is going to the Imperial College today to solve it."

After that, he turned and ran.

The woman had doubts and wanted to ask questions, but her son was already far

away.

.............

Imperial College.

Under the ginkgo tree beside the gate, stood a boy in blue.

The young man kept his head up, staring at the top of the ginkgo tree without

blinking.

In the hurried flow of Guozijian students, the teenagers were like a group of

lone wolves with their heads high, independent of the heavens and the earth.

They looked very strange, and the passing crowd quickly noticed him.

"Hey, you see, there is a fool over there, standing there motionless."

"Ha, really, why did a fool come in from the Imperial College?"

"He is not a fool. I know this person. It is Meng Wenhao from the School of

Mathematical Sciences. He has always been among the best in the School of

Mathematical Sciences."

"Ah? Isn't the school to be closed today? Why did he come back?"

"Who knows! I didn't sleep at home early in the morning, so I ran here in a

daze, really sick!"

"It is said that the School of Mathematical Sciences is closed for eight days

a month, so happy!"

"Yeah, why they can take eight days off every month? I want to protest to the

gentleman of our library, we also have to take eight days off every month!"

"Yes, we have to protest!"

"You guys are going to be late, you are going to be late, Mr. Careful hits the

palm of your hand if you are late!"

"Ah! Go!"

...........

The onlookers suddenly disappeared~www.mtlnovel.com~The gate of the Imperial

College was quiet again.

Meng Wenhao remained motionless, unaffected by the noise outside. If the topic

is done this time, he can add two points to the monthly test. If he can get

these two points, then he will get the monthly test. The first one is much

bigger.

He turned a lot of thoughts crazily in his mind, but they were all denied one

by one. No, this is not good. This is definitely not the best solution, there

must be better!

Meng Wenhao was already in a daze at this time and could not feel the passage

of time at all. Kong Yingda passed by him at this time, glanced at him, shook

his head and sighed: "Persistent child, I hope you can come out soon!"

After that, he didn't bother Meng Wenhao, so he went straight away.

Time passed, and it was noon in a blink of an eye.

"Wow, why is Meng Wenhao still standing here?"

"Yes, he doesn't seem to have moved his feet."

"Don't stand up to the problem!"

"I think this man has a problem in his mind!"

"Go for a walk, leave him alone, go eat!"

"Right, right, eat!"

..........

The surroundings fell into silence again, Meng Wenhao's lips were chapped, and

his body was a little shaky, but he didn't mean to move at all, still thinking

on the spot.

From morning to now, he has thought of hundreds of methods in his mind, such

as building ladders, measuring the trunk section by section, tying ropes to

the treetops, measuring the length of the ropes, etc., but he rejected them

one by one. Intuition tells him that these are not the best methods, there

must be an easier way!

There must be more, I can definitely think of it! Meng Wenhao thought firmly

in his heart.

Thank you for your reward again and again from the Five Sacred Mountains!
