Chapter 1058 I hope Master Wang will return to school
Wang Jijun and his family came to visit Sun Shan this time to thank him for saving their lives.
He also brought a lot of gifts, big and small.
Old Master Wang said gratefully, "Thank you, magistrate. My grandson is able to come back safe and sound this time, all thanks to you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have to send off my young grandson with my old hair."
Mr. Wang also said politely: "Yes, I didn't expect that there would be bandits in our Yuanlu County. If it weren't for the magistrate, the consequences would be disastrous. My son Jun'er would be in great danger. Thank you, magistrate, for saving my life."
County Magistrate Wang also said, "Sir, I have been wanting to come over to express my gratitude these days, but since you have just arrived and have been busy with official duties, I have not dared to come to visit you. Please forgive me. My nephew has returned safely, thanks to you."
After saying this, he thanked Sun Shan again.
County Magistrate Wang is Wang Jijun's second uncle.
Because Wang Jijun was still lame, he could only sit obediently on the chair and said some words of gratitude to the elders when he met them.
Wang Jijun had no choice but to thank him: "Sir, you are like my second parent. If it weren't for you, I might not be able to sit here today. Sir, I can't repay you for saving my life. Please accept my thanks."
Sun Shan raised his eyebrows. Wang Jijun's serious look was really intimidating. If he hadn't known his eccentric personality after a short time together, he would have really thought he had a bright future.
Sun Shan pretended to be polite and waved his hand, shook his head and said, "Old Master Wang, don't say that. It's nothing to mention that we just happened to meet and help each other."
Of course, Old Master Wang continued to express his gratitude: "Master Sun, don't say that. If it weren't for you, my Jun'er would probably be gone long ago."
After a pause, he continued, "Jun'er came back from Chenzhou Prefecture without permission this time. If it weren't for his lame leg, I would have wanted to beat him up a long time ago. Alas, I have been unable to sleep these days. Thinking of Jun'er being chased and hacked by bandits and thinking of Jun'er almost losing his life, I feel really uneasy. The more uneasy I feel, the more fortunate I am that you showed up in time. No matter how much I thank you, it is difficult to express my gratitude to you."
Then he said to Wang Jijun: "Jun'er, when your legs are healed, you must kowtow to me a few times and remember that you are still alive thanks to my help. You must remember my life-saving grace for the rest of your life."
Wang Jijun cooperated very well and bowed his hands to thank him: "Grandpa, even if you don't say it, I will remember your life-saving grace in my heart. When my leg is healed, I will kowtow to thank you."
Mr. Wang looked at Wang Jijun with satisfaction. Not bad, what you said was very nice.
He smiled and said to Sun Shan, "Sir, we don't know how to repay you for saving my life. I have prepared a light meal today. Please come to the No. 1 Teahouse in Yuanlu for dinner."
County Magistrate Wang also echoed, "My Lord, please don't mind this small meal. No matter how much I say, I can't express my gratitude for saving your life. It's all thanks to you, my Lord, that Jun'er was able to save his life."
Wang Jijun said quickly: "Yes, sir, thank you for saving my life. I can still speak now, all thanks to your help. Sir, I would like to invite you to have a meal at the teahouse today to express my gratitude to you."
Sun Shan looked at the pile of gifts, then looked at the four people from the Wang family, shook his head, and said with a smile: "It's a small matter, not worth mentioning. I appreciate your kindness, so you don't have to go out for dinner."
After a pause, he continued: "Here, I have a small request."
When the four Wang family members heard that Sun Shan refused to have dinner with them, they were devastated.
This Lord Sun is very disrespectful. Could it be that he doesn't want to have anything to do with their Wang family?
The parents of Yuanlu, the first family of Yuanlu, if they eat together, outsiders might think they are a family.
The Wang family also wanted to use Wang Jijun's case to win over Sun Shan so that they could achieve win-win cooperation in Yuanlu County in the future.
Although the family is not afraid of Sun Shan, they also want to have a good relationship with Qianglong.
The powerful dragon and the local snake are happy together in Yuanlu to "dominate and oppress".
Sun Shan refused the Wang family's dinner invitation, and the Wang family felt uneasy. Then, when they heard that Sun Shan had a small request, they couldn't help but feel confused.
Mr. Wang smiled slightly, and said with a smile: "Sir, what do you want?"
Sun Shan glanced at Wang Jijun and said in a serious tone, "Old Master Wang, I heard that Young Master Wang no longer studies, is that right?"
When it comes to this issue, the Wang family is troubled. Although the family conditions are so good, Wang Jijun is living a "gluttonous" life.
They wanted to beat him from all directions.
Mr. Wang said helplessly, "Sir, that's right. My son is naughty and not good at studying, so he has to leave the school."
Sun Shan looked at Wang Jijun deeply, sighed and said, "Old Master Wang, Master Wang, I tell you the truth. When I first saw Young Master Wang, I liked him very much and thought he was smart. When I heard that he no longer studied, I couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
The Wang family is so well-off, Young Master Wang is not stupid, and he is only 17 years old. Why doesn't he study at such a young age? I have a small request. I hope Young Master Wang can continue to study in school and study hard to get a good degree. "
After a pause, he continued, "I heard that Young Master Wang has passed the imperial examination and is preparing for it in the capital, is that right?"
The four members of the Wang family were stunned. They didn't expect Sun Shan to speak so highly of Wang Jijun and even think that he was a good student?
Old Master Wang, Master Wang, and County Magistrate Wang had no idea what Sun Shan meant by praising Wang Jijun like that.
But Old Master Wang was obviously happy. His grandson/son was praised for being smart, and he also thought that the child was clever.
Wang Jijun didn't expect Sun Shan to praise him like this, and he felt happy.
He knew that he was not stupid, it was not that he was not good at studying, but that the teacher did not know how to teach.
Humph, the teacher at school said that I am stupid and can’t read.
Bah, he is really looking down on people. As soon as my leg heals, I must bring the teacher from the school to Lord Sun and let Lord Sun scold him to vent my anger.
County Magistrate Wang put his thoughts aside and replied calmly, "Sir, our Dalang is indeed in the capital preparing for the imperial examination."
Having said that, the four members of the Wang family glanced at Sun Shan stealthily.
It's really true that comparing yourself with others will make you feel pissed off. Wang Jia Dalang is more powerful than Sun Shan, but Sun Shan is already the ruler of a county, while Wang Jia Dalang still has to continue struggling.
Alas, in Yuanlu County, everyone praises Wang Dalang for his intelligence. But outside, if you meet someone like Sun Shan, you can only sigh: There are mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people!
Sun Shan pointed at Wang Jijun and said seriously, "Young Master Wang is a good student. We are from the same mother, so Young Master Wang is definitely not stupid. If he studies hard, he may be able to reach a higher level.
I hope that a smart scholar like Young Master Wang, who comes from a well-off family, can study hard and contribute to the education of Yuanlu.
Young Master Wang, who has a sharp mind, should read more. It would be a pity if he doesn't study. I have a small request. I hope Young Master Wang can go back to school."
