The Transmigrated Farm Girl Has a Cheat Code

Chapter 108 New Teacher Warning

When Lin Yu returned, the Lin family had already prepared dinner.

Lin Yu didn't go to the canteen, but instead ran to the doghouse and picked up Bu Huang.

"No, it's not yellow! No, it's not yellow! Ah! Let me hug you."

"Ah Yu! Wash your hands and eat!"

Lin Yan stood at the door watching him, holding a rice bowl that wasn't yellow.

"It's time to eat too."

Lin Yu obediently put down the yellow cloth, went to wash his hands, and sat down at the table.

Chen Feng helped serve the dishes, and Lin's mother took the rice to eat with Lin's father.

Lin Yan glanced at Lin Yu's state and saw that he was eating in silence and talking much less, which made her a little worried.

Haishi.

Light shone through the crack in Lin Yan's door, and she knew that Lin Yu was still awake, because the study was right next to her room.

Lin Yan opened the door and, sure enough, saw Lin Yu still reading by candlelight, with Bu Huang lying at his feet, half asleep.

"Why are you still watching?"

Lin Yu, who had been engrossed in the conversation, was startled by the voice and looked up, "Sister~"

Lin Yan smiled and said, "Did I scare you?"

"You're staying up all night instead of sleeping, and you want to drag Bu Huang to stay up with you?"

Lin Yu pouted and looked at Bu Huang, who had stood up and was wagging its tail after hearing Lin Yan's voice. "It's too lonely being alone."

Lin Yan leaned closer. "What are you looking at?"

Lin Yu looked at the book on the table: “The Great Learning”.

"Have you all already studied the Great Learning?" Lin Yan was taken aback. When they went to the prefectural city, Lin Yu had not yet studied the Four Books and Five Classics.

"No, our progress is a bit different. The teacher has only finished teaching me the Analects, but when I asked the students who will be taking the exam next year, they had already finished the Four Books and even studied two of the Book of Changes. I still have a lot of material to learn! I can only catch up on my progress first so that I can get there faster."

Lin Yu spoke in a low, deep voice.

Lin Yan: "When is the county-level examination?"

"Next February."

"Hmm... there are only six months left..."

Lin Yan pondered. Lin Yu wanted to finish learning the Four Books and Five Classics within six months, which was indeed a tight schedule. The main problem was that she herself hadn't studied these subjects and couldn't tutor him.

Lin Yan glanced at Lin Yu, who was rubbing his eyes and had dark circles under them, and worried: Studying day and night like this can't go on.

"This progress can't be finished in a short time, we should take a break."

Lin Yu lowered his head and said, "Actually, I can't understand it very well on my own. I just thought I would memorize it first, and then I could learn it faster when the teacher explains it to me."

Lin Yan patted his shoulder, "The light isn't good for reading at night, so you should get some rest. There's no need to rush. If we can't finish next year, we can try the year after! We'll be able to learn all this eventually!"

"But……"

"There's no 'but' about it. We're not in a hurry to make you an official. Don't be so worried at such a young age."

Lin Yu wanted to say something, but Lin Yan picked him up, not letting him refuse, "Go to sleep quickly, or you'll be sleeping in class tomorrow! Look, even Huang is sleepy."

Lin Yu glanced at the listless little yellow dog lying on the ground, rubbed his eyes, and nodded. "Oh."

Lin Yan went inside and got a cushion for Bu Huang to put on, so it could sleep in the room.

Lin Yan wanted to blow out the candle, but when she looked at the books on the desk, she paused, pondering how to help Lin Yu study, since she hadn't studied the Four Books and Five Classics in her previous life.

"Wait! I haven't studied it, but isn't there someone at home who has studied it?" Lin Yan blinked, remembering the person who was always reading in the room.

…………

"Young Master Huai'an~"

Chen Feng: Oh my god! ←_←，→_→

Chen Shuo: Hmm? →_→，←_←

"What, what are you doing?" Xiao Jingzhi looked at Lin Yan, whose expression was slightly obsequious, and had a bad feeling.

Lin Yan: "You must have been to school!"

"Ah."

"How were your grades?!"

"Is it... alright?"

“Look! Ayu wants to take the county exam next year, but he’s falling behind quite a bit. He’s studying by himself in his study every night, but it’s not very efficient.”

"I'm not very familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, their meanings and strategies, so I'd like to ask you to help me teach him."

Chen Shuo! "Huh? Teaching a class!"

Hearing Lin Yan's request, Xiao Jingzhi breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out she wanted to tutor a child. Her tone was truly terrifying.

Xiao Jingzhi asked seriously, "What is he learning now?"

“Ayu started school late and only studied primers and the Analects of Confucius.”

Xiao Jingzhi's nerves tightened again after recovering, and he took a deep breath, "That is indeed quite a bit lacking. He has only studied one of the Four Books and Five Classics."

Lin Yan said worriedly, "That's right, he's been studying late into the night every day, trying to catch up on his studies."

Xiao Jingzhi breathed a sigh of relief, "At least they know how to work hard, so there's still hope."

"But studying like this every day is bad for your eyes!"

Xiao Jingzhi: "..."

"What do you think?"

Did you study like this before?

Xiao Jingzhi recalled, "I had to study every day, but less at night. I started learning when I was five and finished the Four Books and Five Classics when I was ten."

Lin Yan: "…………" Wow, that's impressive!

Xiao Jingzhi said ruthlessly, "Since he wants to catch up, he naturally has to work harder. Even if he studies day and night, he may not be able to finish before the end of the year."

Lin Yan sighed: "What should we do then!"

"The county examination is only a preliminary test, and the questions are not very difficult. As long as you learn and master the content and have a little understanding, it's not impossible."

Lin Yan's eyes lit up.

“But,” Xiao Jingzhi said, his tone shifting.

"It's impossible for him to have it easy! He'll have to work hard to finish learning the Four Books and Five Classics in six months."

Xiao Jingzhi looked at Lin Yan with a gentle expression, waiting for her to give an answer.

"Okay!" Lin Yan steeled herself and nodded in agreement.

It's always easier for someone to teach you than for Lin Yu to learn alone. Even if Lin Yan doesn't let him study, Lin Yu, with his personality, will still secretly study by lamplight in the middle of the night.

At worst, I can prepare more nutritional supplements for him and arrange for him to study and exercise at fixed times and places.

"Okay. Then I'll wait for him to come back tonight and test his learning progress and comprehension."

Although Xiao Jingzhi had studied it, he had never taught students and wasn't quite sure where to begin. He needed to understand Lin Yu better before he could tailor a learning plan for him.

Watching Lin Yan leave, Chen Shuo said, "Your Highness, it's fine for Lin Yu to study late into the night, but your health isn't good, so you can't stay up all night with him!"

Xiao Jingzhi: "It's alright, I'm feeling much better lately!"

"Besides, it's only for the time after he gets home in the evening. His teacher takes care of him during the day, and the time is not long."

As he spoke, a smile appeared on his lips. "Teaching students sounds quite interesting."

Looking at the young master's smile, Chen Feng swallowed hard, feeling a pang of sympathy for Lin Yu. Young man, what awaits you is neither a challenge nor torture!
