Chapter 468: Instructing Brother
After this incident, Xiao Wan quickly arranged the matters of Banchengxian and Qilixiang, and also told her family about it.
Xiao Zhengping and Xiao Yuer were both reluctant to leave, and Xiao Yuer even insisted on going along.
Xiao Zhengping's schoolwork is very busy now. The teacher in the private school recognizes him very much and thinks that Xiao Zhengping is very talented in studying, so he values him very much.
He is very busy and has a heavy workload every day. He studies so hard that he forgets to eat and sleep.
The teacher said that he could take the examination for the status of a student next year. Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhengping buried himself in his studies even harder, and his former liveliness and playfulness were gone at all.
Xiao Wan hadn't seen her brother for several days. Seeing that he had lost a lot of weight, she felt very distressed.
Mrs. Liu and Old Man Xiao tried to persuade him many times, but he just wouldn't listen and focused on studying, which made them both anxious and happy.
Thinking of this, she solemnly warned her brother: "Ping'er, you are still young. The most important thing is to take care of your health first, and then study hard."
Seeing that Xiao Zhengping didn't care and just agreed with a smile, I knew that he didn't take it to heart.
Xiao Wan's face turned serious, and she continued to remind him, "Ping'er, you may not care about what I'm saying now, but it's enough for you to eat and drink well every day."
"But think about it, you're growing now. You need to sleep more, eat more, and exercise more so you can grow taller. If you have the ability to grow further, but you don't pay attention to rest and sleep less, you're short and sickly."
"Even if you pass the exam and become a scholar, it will still be a great regret in your life."
"What's more, I heard that when taking exams for the scholar, juren, and jinshi degrees, body shape and appearance are also major assessment requirements. If you are short and thin, and look like you will fall down in the wind, the examiners will not dare to admit you."
Xiao Wan's words, which were both instructive and intimidating, really frightened Xiao Zhengping.
As he listened, he became a little worried and scared. Recently, he really felt that his body could not bear it because he worked too hard. He thought that a good night's sleep would be enough, but it didn't work.
Tian Qing also tried to persuade him every day, but he scolded her impatiently. Now, listening to what her sister said, it seemed that he was indeed too eager for success and did not take care of his health.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhengping calmed down and agreed, no longer looking so cheerful.
Xiao Zhengping glanced at Tian Qing standing at the door. Seeing that Tian Qing's face was filled with joy after he agreed, he felt guilty and walked over to apologize to Tian Qing.
Tian Qing couldn't bear it, and quickly hid aside, shouting, "Master, don't be like this, as long as you are fine."
The two of them reconciled again, and Xiao Wan was very relieved to see this.
Afterwards, Xiao Wan called Tian Qing alone again and gave him a gold ingot. Tian Qing was frightened and did not dare to accept it, but his sister Tian Shuang once again signaled him to accept it.
Gold ingots, he had never seen them before, they were really exquisite and rare. Tian Qing looked at the gold ingots in his hand and loved them very much.
"Qing'er, what you said to persuade Ping'er was right, and what you did was also right. I scolded Ping'er for being disobedient. Don't take it to heart. I'll have to trouble you to take care of Ping'er in the future." Xiao Wan smiled and asked Tian Qing to sit down.
Tian Qing was still a child after all, and was lively. After listening to Xiao Wan's words, he sat down again, but his behavior was still very well-behaved.
Tian Shuang was satisfied to see her brother like this, but she still reminded him privately that he should always remember the rules.
"County Lady, don't worry. The young master didn't say anything to me. I know he is anxious. He will be finished next year, so he has to work hard and make a name for himself to contribute to the family. But I am young and don't understand. I just think that Brother Ping works too hard. He should take care of his health." Tian Qing replied to Xiao Wan embarrassedly.
"You are doing the right thing. Studying hard is important, but your health is also important. You are a little man now. When I am not at home, you will have to take care of the house." Xiao Wan said to Tian Qing with a smile.
She liked Tian Qing very much, partly because he was young and she couldn't bear to let him do more work.
Another reason is that although he is young, he is smart and lively, knows his limits, has a straightforward personality, and is very careful and attentive to Xiao Zhengping's affairs, which makes Xiao Wan like him even more.
Therefore, I am willing to give him anything and treat him as a younger brother.
Tian Qing already knew that Xiao Wan was going to the capital, and her sister was going with her. Tian Qing was reluctant to let her go, but this was what they should do.
Therefore, when he heard Xiao Wan's words, he did not brag, but only said that he would take better care of the young master and help more with housework.
Xiao Wan showed a look of relief on her face. She raised her hand, touched his head, and thanked him with a smile.
Tian Qing blushed in embarrassment. The county lady was so nice.
