The child then realized and remembered Yue Siming’s reddened eyes from earlier. Immediately feeling regretful, he knocked on his own head.cdvsHQWwrxcSSSBZsvFfyrJXILkwrt

CUeMCzCnGNjdxMJWang Erhu was displeased, “My mom says, ‘No matter how big the world is, eating is the most important.’ Look at you, so short and thin. My little sister is only three, and you’re about the same size as her. No real man eats just this little bit of cat food.”uBtuVuFBwAJtzyZCFNoYQiELQZIvpd

LpvAMHFpLdYAPFsThe visitor was a tutor.olNClvZuOSHHXLbIpGFvBcwXavQrJV
FMBrOdBlJYownMxThe child then remembered that he was there to be a bookkeeper but had never seen Yue Siming study before.jdFiILfMpnuYUEqayjPZUKAoFuzYBD
wfYksizpGjgoMaYIn Wang Erhu’s area, several villages shared one tutor. Some children had to walk an hour or more every day to attend lessons. For them, a tutor was very sacred and solemn.cDJfqGRkRJEcWZcqahzowrZpCjykuN
cYVBhsEpIbymDawThis was the child’s first chance to interact with a tutor face-to-face, and he felt a bit excited and curious.IhSagRiteNItjHGRvxdLNHfwKyiiwl

wWAqPYaWiJOtKVFWang Erhu fell silent immediately. After spending time with Yue Siming, he had picked up on some of his taboos.CJAcPnaCcgEwWSteWEwuhvCpVhmPXu
egKxEfqlfBNCfWHOne of these was mentioning his mother. He had learned that his mother had passed away just over a year ago. Seeing Yue Siming’s eyes redden made him uncomfortable.MrDIsQvxVxBDaPmrxnNODnTCXqKoHd

mUtzTKJtAgDhLvxHe hopped to the table, spread a piece of paper, and took up a brush to write a character in the center of the white paper.veyjtANqZcVtabJuflxegvoOUfrSGO
zybhEgDmjesvoQuWang Erhu sat beside him, curiously peering over. “Your writing is really nice…”NZXCbNZjmDpczDkfMSNUgTdCqvdeyB

lRIXAjJaeLVYiQm“See? This is my name, Yue, Si, Ming. You need to learn to write these three characters first before I teach you your own name.”UgepZievJPXYgxOnSHTMliWeCBLNlb
bLHbKVFWjdoKwjgThe child’s face scrunched up like an unfolded quilt. “Your name… is so hard to write… So many strokes, who can remember all that?”adtByZepkcHcXSxWoFQObFlBZykvTr
QjdvLFSeOQMCeGH“You’re being ridiculous. It’s just three characters. How can you not remember? Watch closely, I’ll write it again.” He then carefully wrote the three characters once more.HKOmfYwXFWpAXgLULXTGspXoBFTvBg
IniAJEqymyyIiQXThe child shook his head. “It’s too hard, too hard. It’s more difficult than my own name. Why did your father give you such a hard name to write?”cjPWASWMKsxEOoRcoBAUdXZXfWgPEv
fYwHOTEpUNdrMIwYue Siming was really frustrated and slapped the child’s head, shoving the brush into his hand. “Write! If you can’t remember it after one try, write it ten times. If you can’t remember it after ten, write it a hundred times, until you get it right!”GBrKTlXfRxSavnYYDfnbXhyoBdSazO

CIFQRCWtthUxugQThe child had no choice but to clutch the brush and scribble on the paper.uUldZErFQHxUyMkMLFISEyVLZwOymW
tSJLGBIUlDPORCo“You don’t even know how to hold a brush!” Yue Siming was exasperated, snatching the brush from him. “Look, hold it like this, your fingers need to be here.” After demonstrating, he put the brush back in the child’s hand. “Hold it properly. Yes, like this, with your fingers applying pressure here. Hold it right.” Yue Siming painstakingly adjusted the child’s little fingers to hold the brush properly. His focused and serious expression was like a painting, leaving Wang Erhu in awe.dRFdaTfyhCrTbLfCAcIpvTSbrnRRik
TApOAWwinUiIrQi“From now on, hold the brush like this and remember it. Alright, write now,” the young master turned his head and saw the child staring blankly at him, becoming angry, “What are you looking at me for! Look at the characters and write!”cGcImDjiPkPlamSvuglSROYarRRfTs

GGBFLxpyBQGJzDJYue Siming was taken aback and then his face flushed red, his chubby cheeks like small apples, extremely cute.hOFxPghhcuDswPpuHNCCCsQoOFaZKt

CZFWwAilqvbaTeL“Why wouldn’t it matter? I see you every day, and you’re so handsome. If I see you, then… then…” The child got stuck, unsure of what he wanted to say. After a while, he stammered, “So it matters to me because I see you.”TWjYTNaxRoYizcIXHWrbCGXutQpJbY
aeSAjAeFZoLFalhYue Siming shouted, “Who told you to look? You’re not allowed to look! No looking!” He covered Wang Erhu’s eyes with his small hand and instinctively touched his own face, which felt very hot.fCHFCvsjtFlObXfWQlKpGHMASATQII
SOyXTRmMkVWNqbFWang Erhu bravely pushed his hand away and, with sincere eyes, said, “Young Master Yue, you’re really handsome. Be my little wife.”YAFFpNquyNpqtjNxEfngFEpJUOpPTF

ANIFugAhlkrDjtXOf course, the child didn’t leave. Instead, he had a satisfied expression, as if he had solved a difficult problem. “Young Master Yue, really, I’m serious. My mother always said I’m too dumb to find a wife. I don’t believe it. You be my little wife. I’ll tell my mother, and she’ll see that I’m not dumb.”qOfhjSLzfVQgdwBfHheFGtXUgQRpKa

IpPLNrrcRBRPjZHHe had wanted to show his anger but ended up making a fool of himself. Yue Siming, in a mix of frustration and fury, shook his hand and glared fiercely at Wang Erhu.DFrUVGMUKAAvJexKCkwRMhdygFRFsQ
pKmvTIcPdDhTRKy“Are you alright, Young Master Yue?” The child eagerly held Yue Siming’s hand and blew on it, “Blow on it, blow on it, it won’t hurt anymore.”DVnZWNCLcViyCLLLIuDIoOODvSwQSi

IAhoALvukdOCLOH“Well, I’ll try hard. My mother said that to get a wife, I should work hard, at least two acres of land, and grow crops myself. It’s really tiring. During spring or harvest, my brother’s legs tremble with exhaustion. Compared to that, learning to write is much easier, so I might as well learn to write.”eIsmuCDzYmkSMiiHHpzGPoeHsODpxV
qzPPgsdxsGWUxyRYue Siming was so angry he felt like he might burst. He lifted the child’s shirt and rubbed ink all over his face. The child’s face immediately looked like a mess of ink blotches.gfqtUQvANtDQJqVYiieqywaiVJzTTX
