Chapter 883: To know one's mistakes and correct them is the greatest virtue

After Yu Xiangnan finished speaking, Wang An and Wu Dong couldn't help but look at each other, both seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.

The main thing was that these two found that this half-old man Yu Xiangnan was seriously a bit stubborn. If they didn't let him go, it seemed it really wouldn't work, because Yu Xiangnan was definitely going to make a personal trip.

Thus, Wu Dong said very sincerely:

"Elder Yu is righteous! Alright, then let's go together, and by the way, intimidate Gu Xiaoshuang's stepfather."

Yu Xiangnan smiled and said:

"If Minister Wu is busy, go back to work. Wang An and I can go."

Wu Dong said with a grin:

"It's fine, I'm not busy these two days. Let's change cars in a while and drive my jeep, that way it can be a bit more comfortable."

Who knew Yu Xiangnan would say unquestioningly:

"No, let's take the sidecar. I haven't ridden this thing for many years, and I've actually missed it quite a bit."

Hearing this, Wu Dong and Wang An looked at each other again, but the eyes of these two were quite strange, as if they were both saying to each other: This old man is truly stubborn!

Just then, Yu Xiangnan suddenly said to Wu Dong and Wang An:

"You wait for me for a while, I'll go find a blank admission notice."

As he spoke, Yu Xiangnan went out and walked toward another office.

In a short while, Yu Xiangnan returned, and he was holding a piece of red hard paper in his hand.

It could be seen that this red hard paper was the so-called notice.

Seeing Yu Xiangnan pick up a brush and just about to write, he suddenly asked:

"What is this student's name?"

Wang An hurriedly took out the paper Wang Yi had written and unfolded it, respectfully handing it over with both hands.

Yu Xiangnan took the paper and looked at it, his brows subconsciously furrowed, and then he criticized Wang An:

"One look and I know you haven't studied since leaving school. How did you write these characters? Why are they even worse than what a primary school student writes?"

It must be said that although this half-old man Yu Xiangnan was very diligent as a principal and was an existence worthy of being enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple.

But he also had the occupational disease of all teachers, which was that he liked to criticize and educate others, subconsciously treating people as his students.

To say that Yu Xiangnan scolded Wang An was still not wrong; after all, when Wang An was studying, Yu Xiangnan was Wang An's principal, and now, he still was.

Wang An subconsciously wanted to retort upon hearing this, saying that this was written by his younger brother Wang Yi, but he immediately held back and just smiled awkwardly at Yu Xiangnan.

The main thing was that there was really no need to explain this kind of thing.

However, Wang An was thinking about one thing in his heart, and that was that he must urge Wang Yi to practice his handwriting well after returning home.

Otherwise, day after day, he would still have to take the blame for Wang Yi.

Seeing that Wang An didn't speak, Yu Xiangnan just shook his head lightly and began to write seriously on the admission notice.

As Yu Xiangnan pressed his official seal and personal seal very forcefully on the admission notice, this admission notice was completed.

Gently blowing the ink dry, Yu Xiangnan put the admission notice into a canvas bag, then turned to Wang An and Wu Dong and said:

"Alright, let's go. Let's go and return quickly; if we're on time, we can still catch lunch."

As he spoke, Yu Xiangnan picked up the canvas bag and walked out from behind the desk.

The three walked out of the office, Wang An and Wu Dong helped Yu Xiangnan lock the office door, and the three of them got on the motorcycle.

Yu Xiangnan sat in the sidecar, and Wu Dong sat in the back seat. From Yu Xiangnan's movements getting on the car, it was not hard to see that Yu Xiangnan's legs and feet were not very agile. Subconsciously, Wang An asked:

"Principal, do you know what's wrong with your leg?"

Yu Xiangnan said with a grin:

"Old cold legs and rheumatism, it's an old ailment. These are all the root causes left from those years, it doesn't matter, hehehe."

Old cold legs and rheumatism were very common locally; out of ten people, maybe 8 had old cold legs.

It was mainly because the temperature in the local area after entering winter was too low, and when conditions were not good, they wore too little, so they were frozen out.

Wang An said with a grin upon hearing this:

"That's perfect, I have a lot of bear knee caps stored up. When I go back, I'll bring you some. That thing soaked in wine is seriously effective for rheumatism and old cold legs."

After Wang An finished speaking, Yu Xiangnan refused directly:

"No need, such good things are wasted on me. I sit all day and don't have to do heavy work, leave them for your parents to use."

Wu Dong interjected with a grin:

"Elder Yu, you're wrong there. That thing might be a good thing for others, but for Little An, it's just ordinary bone. He can kill twenty or thirty bears a year, there are plenty of bear knee caps, no need to save for him, hahahaha."

Yu Xiangnan was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, thought for a while and said:

"Wang An, so you're not messing around anymore, you've changed your profession to hunting?"

It must be said that Yu Xiangnan was truly a person with great vision. Although in his heart, he had always known about Wang An messing around before, until now, he had never pointed it out, still treating Wang An as his student.

Wang An scratched his head embarrassedly and said:

"Hi, wasn't I ignorant before? Later I woke up, so I stopped messing around."

Yu Xiangnan nodded with gratification upon hearing this:

"To know one's mistakes and correct them is the greatest virtue. It's really great that you could wake up in time. I was still pondering how to persuade you to turn back before, very good, very good, hehehe."

It could be seen that Yu Xiangnan was truly happy for Wang An's change.

Wang An smiled awkwardly again and said to Yu Xiangnan:

"Principal, sit tight, we're setting off now."

As he spoke, Wang An kicked the sidecar to life, made a turn on the spot, and the sidecar drove toward the direction of Xing'an Township.

Because Yu Xiangnan was in the car, Wang An's riding speed was not very fast.

But even so, after less than half an hour, the three of them arrived.

In this season, almost every household was busy weeding and tilling the fields.

So unsurprisingly, there was no one at Gu Xiaoshuang's house.

Tilling the land is a local term, which is the act of using a plow to turn the soil on the ridge into the furrows on both sides.

The main function of tilling the land is, on one hand, to cultivate the roots of the crops, and on the other hand, to remove the weeds on the ridge, and by the way, bury the weeds in the furrows with soil.

However, the plowshare used for tilling the land needs to have the tips on both sides knocked off; otherwise, the tips on both sides will hurt the crops.

Seeing the tightly closed door, Wu Dong said with some worry:

"Damn, we won't have to wait until noon, right?"

Yu Xiangnan clearly hadn't expected this point either, but he didn't show any signs of being in a hurry.

Wang An looked at the children who were gradually gathering to look at the car, his eyes rolled, and a plan came to mind.

Thanks to "Emperor of the Great Empire" for the tip, thank you, thank you!
