When Li Yi walked into the school in the afternoon, what he saw was completely different from what he saw in the morning.
"Hello, Sir!"
All the naughty kids sat in their seats with their heads held high and their chests puffed out. They bowed to him with a solemn expression, and their crisp voices were very pleasing to the ear.
At this moment, Li Yi actually felt a sense of pride and satisfaction as a gardener of the motherland.
Naughty kids were good. They were simple, gullible, and didn't hold grudges …
"Do you remember the words I taught you this morning?" Li Yi didn't sit in the teacher's seat at the very front. He casually sat down next to one of the naughty kids and asked.
"Yes!" Hearing Li Yi's question, the naughty kids said in unison.
The naughty kid sitting next to Li Yi looked a little uneasy, but he felt that this teacher was different from the previous Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin always sat in front with a stern face, as if someone owed him a few strings of money. He never sat with them.
"Alright, let's check first. Who wants to go first?" Li Yi looked at the naughty kids and asked.
It took a lot of courage to be the first to eat crabs. The naughty kids looked at each other a few times, but no one was willing to go first.
"I'll go first!"
Suddenly, a voice came from Li Yi's side. It sounded like it took a lot of effort to muster up the courage.
Li Yi turned his head and saw the naughty kid who told him that he would marry Liu Ruyi when he grew up. He stood up from his seat and looked a little eager.
"Alright, it's you then. What's your name?" Li Yi looked at him and said with a smile.
"Sir, my name is Liu Xiaohu …" It seemed that Li Yi's smile infected the naughty kid. His expression also relaxed. He walked to the sand table, took out a small branch from his sleeve, and wrote on the sand table.
Li Yi got up and walked over. He bent down to take a look. Although the naughty child's handwriting was crooked and a little childish, he could tell that he must have used some strength after he went down. He nodded and patted the naughty child's head. "Very good. Everyone should learn from Little Tiger in the future. Be braver."
Naughty children also had vanity. Liu Xiaohu's heart was as sweet as honey when his teacher told them to learn from him in front of so many of his friends. His chubby face was flushed with excitement, and he walked down with his head held high.
With Liu Xiaohu taking the lead, things became much simpler. The naughty kids came up one after another to be examined. The results surprised Li Yi. He knew that the previous Mr. Qin could only make these naughty children shake their heads and recite some things. They were far from being literate. But this time, everyone wrote the word "Liu" correctly.
Was the story of Sun Wukong so attractive to them?
It was hard to guess the thoughts of the naughty children, and Li Yi was too lazy to guess them. As long as they were obedient, everything would be fine. When they were all seated, with their heads held high and chests puffed out, Li Yi asked, "Where were we this morning?"
"Go to the West and invite Buddha!"
The naughty children answered in unison.
…
…
The recent abnormal behavior of the naughty children in Willow Leaf Village had attracted the attention of all the naughty children's parents.
Sometimes, they would see their children holding a wooden stick and chasing a black dog in the village, shouting, "Howling Celestial Dog, where do you think you're going?" "Howling Celestial Dog, die!" Now that the black dog saw these naughty children, it screamed and ran far away.
That was only the first symptom. Later on, they even muttered to a spider, a centipede, and a scorpion. The naughty children caught these things and pointed at them with sticks. After muttering for a long time, they stomped them to death and laughed loudly, saying that they were slaying demons …
What's more, they stole a gourd from somewhere and went behind others, shouting, "XX Liu, I call you, do you dare to answer?"
If it was someone else who did this, they would have tied him up and roasted him on the fire. But it was their children who were crazy. They couldn't do it no matter what. Some people were so worried that there were more wrinkles on their faces these days.
Of course, the parents of the naughty children, who were illiterate in the past, were now able to write their names on the ground with a wooden stick. Even though they didn't understand what they were saying, they could tell that it was very mysterious and impressive. This made the parents of the naughty children so shocked that their jaws dropped.
And the source of all this was the new teacher in the school.
It was said that he was the husband that Ruyi kidnapped when she went down the mountain. Some people saw him from afar. He was handsome, but his body was thin, as if a gust of wind could blow him over. However, he seemed to be quite capable. Even Mr. Qin couldn't control the naughty children, but they were obedient in front of him. It was extremely strange.
Some of the naughty children's parents were even worried that the scholar had used some evil magic on their children. After all, those scholars were very evil. They were vigilant and did not allow the naughty children to go to school.
However, he never expected that as soon as he said that the naughty child was forbidden to go to school, his child would immediately lie on the ground and roll around, wiping his snot and tears on his body. He wouldn't get up from the ground if he wasn't allowed to go to school.
Li Yi did not expect that the naughty children would be so good at applying what they learned on the spot. They had learned Monkey Sun's ability to make a scene and roll on the ground in such a short time. Adults who had never experienced this kind of new trick could not deal with it at all!
In desperation, they could only join forces to find Second Great Uncle and persuade him to change to another teacher. If this went on, they didn't know what their children would become!
"What are you panicking for? He is a scholar. Do you still need to teach him how to teach?" The old man with white hair and beard lay at the door and basked in the sun. He impatiently waved his hand at the crowd and said, "Go do what you need to do. You bunch of idiots. Don't worry about this anymore."
After everyone left helplessly, the old man stretched himself and a satisfied smile appeared on his old face. He murmured, "It's so comfortable without these little brats bothering me all day …"
Although there were many disagreements within the Liu family, other than Liu Ruyi, this old man was the one they heard the most about in the village.
As the oldest elder in the Liu family, Second Great Uncle had absolute authority in the village.
Since Second Great Uncle had spoken, the crowd no longer forbade the naughty children from going to school. They could not help but sigh when they thought about the changes that the naughty children had undergone during this period of time.
That handsome scholar, although he was only the husband that Ru Yi had snatched back to suppress the stronghold, he probably … had some ability …
