My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare! Chapter 184 - 111: The Ritual Department Completed2

Song Residence, Li Nuo comfortably enjoyed the massage.

At the Horse Field, Zhou Yu scratched his head with so confusion as he looked at the empty racetrack.

These past few days, as long as he was present, those fellows from the academy who were also skilled in horse riding would surely co, even arriving earlier than him.

Today, he was a little late, so how co not a single one of them was there?

Could it be that they felt they couldn't compete with him in horse riding and voluntarily gave up?

But it was also good that they didn't co, saving him the trouble of competing for the track. Zhou Yu practiced alone, heartily, for a two-hour period until he was thoroughly exhausted and in the end didn't even have the strength to crack a whip...

When Brother Li supervised him before, he could practice continuously for two periods.

Today, with Brother Li absent, Zhou Yu always felt sothing was missing; after practicing a little more, he felt his enthusiasm wane and left the Horse Field, returning to the Zhou Family.

He had just gotten ho and hadn't even had a chance to bathe when his mother inford him that four old n had co to his house, claiming to be there to teach him Mathematics.

Zhou Yu rembered the four old n he had seen at the Song Residence today.

Up to now, he still didn't know the identity of the other party.

He only knew that they seed to be mathematics teachers from so academy, and Brother Li asked them to help improve his mathematics score. He thought that Brother Li had ntioned it casually, but they had found their way to his house.

All he wanted to do now was to sleep.

If it was a teacher invited by his father, he couldn't be bothered to care.

But if it was arranged by Brother Li, he really didn't dare to be presumptuous.

Zhou Yu quickly took a simple bath and obediently went to the study to listen to the old n's lecture.

An hour later, Zhou Yu erged from the study feeling refreshed.

These old n had so skills indeed.

The hour passed so quickly that Zhou Yu hardly felt ti's passage, and today's lesson was already over.

The mathematics problems that had troubled him for a long ti were, under the brief explanations of these old n, like the girls at the Hundred Flowers Building, shedding their garnts one by one to reveal their perfect forms.

For the first ti, he felt that mathematics might not be so difficult after all.

As the old n were leaving, they said that starting from tomorrow, each day at this hour, one of them would co to Zhou Mansion to teach him Mathematics and for him to wait at ho and not to wander off.

The Minister of Transportation got off his sedan chair just in ti to see several old n walking out of his house, boarding a carriage, and departing triumphantly.

He felt that the old n seed familiar; he seed to have seen them sowhere before.

Soon he rembered that they were four grandmasters of Mathematics of Daxia who had educated students all over the land, and who had now retired behind the scenes, no longer managing academy affairs.

Even though they no longer wielded actual power, their influence was still not to be underestimated.

Not only were they among the setters of the Mathematics questions of the Imperial Examination, but they were also the final arbiters for the Mathematics exam papers.

After returning to the mansion, the Minister of Transportation asked his wife with curiosity, "How did those gentlen co to our house?"

Zhou Yu's mother expressed her surprise, "Aren't they the mathematics teachers that the master had hired for Yu'er?"

Him?

Zhou Ting shook his head.

If he was willing to spend a large sum of money to invite one of them to offer so advice to his son, it wasn't impossible.

But for all four grandmasters to co at once and not take a penny, he certainly didn't have that kind of clout.

Zhou Yu, who had just gone to sleep, was called awake again.

First it was more than an hour of horse riding practice, then another hour spent on mathematics. He felt both physically and ntally drained and wanted to get a good sleep to recharge, but he couldn't get his wish.

The Minister of Transportation looked at him and asked, "What's with those old gentlen?"

Zhou Yu, half-asleep, said, "What do you an, what's with them? They are the mathematics teachers Brother Li found for . Dad, do you know them..."

After learning about the background of the old n from his father, Zhou Yu was wide awake in an instant.

Were those old n that powerful?

The Minister of Transportation said, "Not just powerful, the mathematics questions for each Imperial Examination are set by them. You must study hard with them, even if you don't beco the top scholar in horse riding, if you rank among the best when all Six Arts are combined, there is still hope to beco an Advanced Scholar... "

Zhou Yu then realized Brother Li's painstaking efforts.

It turned out he was worried about his potential loss in horse riding, so he specially found such powerful teachers to help improve his weaker subjects.

Although he and Song Yu shared similar interests,

Brother Li was truly a beneficial friend in his life.

No, more than a beneficial friend, he was practically a foster father!

anwhile, at the Song Residence.

After dinner, Li Nuo lay comfortably in his chair, tilting his head to the right to taste a grape peeled by Mumu, and then tilting it to the left to catch a piece of apple hand-cut and fed to him by Ning'er.

In the sisters' rivalry, Li Nuo beca their battleground.

After eating one last grape, he stood up from his chair and said, "I'm full; no more, you two go play. I'm going to read..."

Song Ning'er walked away, biting an apple, while Song Mu'er huffed lightly. Brother Li's first bite was grape, and his last bite was still grape; he still favored her most in the world.

Watching the two sisters leave, Li Nuo lay back down.

Of course, he did it on purpose that he started and ended with grapes.

Despite Mumu's young age, her mind was even more complicated than his wife's, and if he didn't eat hers first or last, she would surely start to doubt their number-one relationship in the world.

He lay back in the chair and casually picked up a book from beside him.

He was reading about "auspicious ceremonies"; the Imperial Examination tested on the "Five Rites," with auspicious ceremonies being the foremost. It was mainly about the sacrificial ceremonies to Heavenly Gods, earth spirits, and human ghosts.

Candidates needed to know which year, month, day, and specific ti these sacrificial activities would take place, what the process of the ceremony was like, what needed to be done at every stage of the ceremony, what kind of music to play, and how to handle various unexpected situations that might arise...
