Chapter 114: Answer the Question

“Sir, some of the herbs you requested earlier have also been collected. When do you think you’ll need them?”

After Sun Ziqian and Su Sanlang left, Sun Bocheng spoke about the medicinal herbs.

Some of the previous prescriptions were very expensive medicinal herbs. The residence did not have them previously, but they had collected some from elsewhere these few days and were already waiting in the residence.

Old Wu said calmly, “Send it over later.”

After saying that, Old Wu said to Su Xiaolu, “Girl, let’s go.”

After returning to the small courtyard arranged by the Sun residence, the two of them washed up. Su Xiaolu went to see Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian.

First, she took their pulses and asked about their diet.

Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian answered obediently.

Standing with her arms around the two children, Madam Lian said gently, “Their appetites have improved a lot these days. It’s all thanks to Xiaolu.”

It had only been four days and no changes could be seen, but Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian were in good spirits.

Sun Baoshan, who was originally coughing, stopped coughing. He thought about his warm body every night. These improvements were undoubtedly thanks to Su Xiaolu.

Madam Lian saw that her children had improved, so her impression of Su Xiaolu became better.

Su Xiaolu smiled and said, “Sister Baoqian and Brother Baoshan are in good condition.”

After seeing Sun Baoqian and Sun Baoshan, Su Xiaolu went back to the courtyard to make medicine with Old Wu.

As for Su Sanlang, he had already followed Sun Ziqian to a school.

Sun Ziqian said gently to Su Chong and Su Hua, “Teacher Lin will be a little strict, but he is very knowledgeable. You will like him very much after you get to know him.”

Sun Ziqian warned Su Chong and Su Hua in advance, afraid that they would think that Teacher Lin was too strict and dislike learning.

“Thank you. Hua and I won’t be afraid.”

Before they came, Zhou Heng had told them that as long as they could enter the school, they could tolerate any grievances. A man had to be magnanimous and tolerate what ordinary people could not.

As long as the teacher was willing to accept them, they could tolerate anything.

Looking at Su Chong and Su Hua’s determined eyes, Sun Ziqian smiled and said, “That’s for the best.”

This was the best school in the town, but also the strictest.

Teacher Lin had a bad temper. The students who failed to meet his requirements were expelled by him after the annual examination.

But the students taught by Teacher Lin could become Elementary Scholars at the very least.

The Sun residence had also hired Teacher Lin to be Sun Baoshan and Sun Baoqian’s teacher. He would teach in the residence every five days. This time, when Su Chong and Su Hua entered the school, Sun Ziqian also came respectfully and explained the situation.

Teacher Lin did not say anything about Su Sanlang leaving the family. He only said that he would see for himself after they met.

As he had informed them in advance, when they arrived at Lin Pingsheng’s school, Sun Ziqian brought Su Sanlang and the two children in directly.

After entering the door, they could vaguely hear the teacher lecturing.

Su Chong and Su Hua’s eyes immediately lit up. They were no longer in the mood to care about Sun Ziqian. Both of them listened attentively.

Lin Pingsheng had accepted twenty students. Everyone knelt at the desk and listened to the class.

Sun Ziqian brought Su Sanlang and the other two closer and stopped. He was about to tell them not to make a fuss now and wait for Teacher Lin to finish class when he saw Su Sanlang’s cautious face and tight lips.

As for Su Chong and Su Hua, their attention was no longer on him.

Sun Ziqian could not help but laugh. He swallowed the words he was about to say. Su Sanlang and his sons did not need his reminder at all.

Lin Pingsheng was in his forties. His expression was cold, his words were cold, and his face was expressionless. Anyone who saw him would know that he was very stern.

The student also sat upright and focused. They were all focused on learning.

However, Lin Pingsheng would occasionally point with the ruler. The students he pointed at would get up to answer questions. If they could not answer, he would walk over with a cold expression. He would pick up the ruler and whip it twice. Then, he would interpret the question loudly again and scold sternly, “Remember it now.”

The student who was hit replied loudly with tears in his eyes, “I’ll remember.”

After an hour-long lecture, the students carried their book bags and said goodbye to Lin Pingsheng.

Only then did Lin Pingsheng finally have the time to look at Sun Ziqian, Su Sanlang, and the others.

He’d seen the two kids Su Sanlang had brought, but he was in class and he wasn’t going to make it easy for anyone. If they came, they came. Just wait.

Now that he was free, Lin Pingsheng walked over and said calmly, “Come with me. I have to test them before I can decide.”

With that, Lin Pingsheng led the way.

Sun Ziqian smiled at Su Sanlang and said, “Let’s go.”

Su Sanlang was a little nervous. He looked at Su Chong and Su Hua and whispered, “Don’t be afraid, Chong, Hua. I believe you.”

Behind the school was Lin Pingsheng’s house.

When they arrived at the main hall, Lin Pingsheng’s wife, Madam Chen, smiled and said, “It’s Master Sun. Take a seat. I’ll go make tea for you.”

Madam Chen was different from Lin Pingsheng, who had a cold and expressionless face. Her smile was gentle and immediately eased the freezing atmosphere.

Sun Ziqian smiled back and nodded. “Thank you, Mrs. Lin.”

Madam Chen turned and went out the door.

Lin Pingsheng looked at Su Chong and Su Hua and said, “Su Chong, Su Hua, let me ask you a question. If you can answer it, you can come to my school every day from tomorrow onwards.”

Su Chong and Su Hua stepped forward in unison and said respectfully in unison, “Teacher, please ask.”

Lin Pingsheng looked at Su Sanlang and then said calmly, “Let me ask you, what do you think of your father’s actions of leaving the family? If you think it’s right, what’s right? If it’s wrong, why is it wrong?”

It was a difficult subject.

Sun Ziqian couldn’t help but feel anxious when he heard this. He was afraid that Su Chong and Su Hua would get angry and do something out of control.

Just as he was about to interrupt, Lin Pingsheng looked over impolitely and said to Sun Ziqian, “Master Sun, this is my rule for accepting students. Please don’t interfere.”

Sun Ziqian was speechless. Lin Pingsheng had a bad temper and was hated by many people.

His strict requirements caused those who did not meet his requirements in their second year to be directly expelled. He really did not care about their feelings at all.

Those who understood naturally thought that he was good, but those who did not understand his harshness would only think that he was bad and too harsh.

Sun Ziqian watched as Su Sanlang’s fists clenched.

At this moment, Su Hua said, “I, Su Hua, now answer your question. I think my father did the right thing, and I will be grateful to him for doing that for the rest of my life. If you want to know the reason, I will tell you. The reason is very simple. Ever since my father left the clan with my family, my family has had enough to eat.”
