Back In Time For Imperial Examination Chapter 84

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Mr. Lu started chatting with Ryan Cui about the old stories between master and apprentice.

Ryan Cui was afraid that he would be exposed if he talked too much, so he listened quietly and took note of the details when he was talking. When it was his turn to speak, he changed the subject and asked Mr. Lu: "I was not at home for the past two years. When I came back, my second brother was ordered to go to the south. Later, there were many things to do at home, so I never had time to check on my brothers' homework. Mr. Lu has been teaching them for the past two years, but I don't know if my two brothers still listen to your teachings?"

Mr. Lu pondered for a while.

"Jason Cui is not as good as you... not as good as you were when I taught you. You were always running outside and never went to school. Nathan Cui, on the other hand, is quite smart. I taught him "Three", "Hundred" and "Thousand", and he could remember them after reading them a few times. I started teaching him last spring, and this year he can already recite these three books by heart and start reading character books and rhyme books."

He suddenly raised his head and glanced at Ryan Cui: "Are you worried that I won't be able to teach you well and delay your two younger brothers?"
