Farmer's Wife Has Magic Skills

Shen Ruyue said, “Qingzhi, let’s go in.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded and the four of them walked into the school.

As soon as they stepped into the school, they were stopped by the gatekeeper. “Are you students of the school?”

Chu Qingzhi sized up the gatekeeper. He was a young man in his mid-twenties. He was tall and had a righteous aura. “No, I brought my two younger brothers here to sign up.”

The gatekeeper said in a businesslike manner, “The signing-up period for the school has passed. Come back half a year later.”

Half a year later? Chu Qingzhi was naturally unwilling. “How long has it been since the sign-up period ended?”

The gatekeeper said, “It’s been three days. The students have already begun their lesson.”

Chu Qingzhi glanced at the disappointed brothers and asked the gatekeeper, “Can’t you make an exception?”

The gatekeeper said matter of factly, “I’m sorry, it’s the same no matter who comes. I can’t make an exception, but you have a chance.”

Chu Qingzhi asked, “What chance?”

The gatekeeper pointed to a wooden notice board in front of the door. There was a piece of white paper pasted on it.

“There’s a question on the white paper that no one in the school can answer. If you can solve the question, I can let you in to see the dean. At that time, it will be up to the dean to decide.”

Chu Qingzhi looked over. “Ruyue, Xuyuan, Xuyao, wait for me here. I’ll go take a look.”

Shen Ruyue nodded solemnly. “Okay.”

Chu Qingzhi walked towards the noticeboard. There was only a circle drawn on the white paper.

Chu Qingzhi was confused

What kind of strange question was this? It would be strange if anyone could answer it correctly!!!

After complaining, Chu Qingzhi thought for a while and wrote.

Without rules, nothing could be achieved.

When the passers-by saw Chu Qingzhi writing the answer, they surrounded her and looked at the white paper. As they looked at it, they could not help but reveal looks of surprise and admiration.

“Brilliant! Brilliant!”

“Why didn’t we think of that?”

“When I didn’t see the answer, I found it extremely difficult to answer it. Now that I see the answer, I feel enlightened.”

Someone immediately went to tell the dean that someone had answered the question, and the answer was wonderful.

When the dean heard this, he actually walked out personally. The students made way for him.

The dean came to the notice board. “Wonderful, wonderful!”

After calming down, the dean looked at Chu Qingzhi. “Miss, is this the answer you wrote?”

Chu Qingzhi placed the pen on the table and said, ”1 wrote it.”

The dean bowed to Chu Qingzhi. “Miss, you’re a genius.” He straightened his body. “This question has troubled me for five years. Today, it’s finally solved. Thank you for it.”

Chu Qingzhi said humbly, “Dean, you’re exaggerating it.”

The dean thought to himself that this girl’s knowledge and talent could not be underestimated. “Miss, may I know why you are here at our school?”

Chu Qingzhi turned around and pointed at the two younger ones. “I brought my younger brothers here to sign up.”

“Sign up? It’s simple.” The dean waved at Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao. “Come here.”

Chu Xuyuan and Chu Xuyao did not move but looked at Chu Qingzhi.

Chu Qingzhi waved at the two of them before the two children ran over.

Chu Qingzhi introduced the dean to the brothers. “He’s the dean. Greet him.”

The brothers said in unison, “Greetings, dean.”

The dean sized up the brothers. One was nine years old, and the other was seven. They were both at the best age to study. With such an outstanding sister, the younger brothers were naturally not bad.

Hence, the dean wanted to test them. “Have you learned poems?”

The brothers nodded together.

The dean said, “Then recite one for me.”

Chu Xuyuan cleared his throat and said in a clear voice, “Wind scatters all the late autumn leaves; Wind hastens blossom and bloom of February; Wind churns up thousand-feet-wide waves; Wind sways myriad bamboos west and east..”

It meant that the wind could make the leaves of late autumn fall, and it could accelerate the blooming of flowers in early spring and February. When it passed by the river, it could set off huge waves, and when it blew into the bamboo forest, it could make the bamboo trees dance.

When everyone heard this, they were stunned on the spot, overwhelmed by deep emotions.

The dean slowly retracted his shocked expression and asked softly, “Xuyuan, who wrote this poem you recited?”

Chu Xuyuan turned around and looked at Chu Qingzhi in admiration. “My Fifth Sister.”

The dean looked at Chu Qingzhi as if she was a god of poetry. “Miss, you know how to compose poems?”

This was an era where the imperial court was in turmoil. Everyone fought for power and benefits, and very few people focused on study. There was a lack of poems, and it had been many years since such an outstanding poem had appeared.

Chu Qingzhi calmly accepted the dean’s admiring gaze. “I wrote it for fun.”

The dean suppressed his excitement and asked, “Miss, did you make any other poems?”

Chu Qingzhi patted Chu Xuyao’s shoulder gently. “Recite one.”

Chu Xuyao was a little shy. Under Chu Qingzhi’s encouraging gaze, he said softly, “This is for the moon. When I was young, I didn’t know what the moon was. And thought it to be a white jade plate. Or maybe a mirror hanging from the sky, floating in the crystal blue clouds.”

The dean was overwhelmed with emotions. His eyes flickered, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes seemed to have relaxed a little.

He said excitedly, “Good poem, good poem. When I heard it, I felt like a bright moon appeared in front of me.”

The students looked at the three siblings in the crowd with admiration.

After everyone felt the charm of the poem, the dean personally brought the brothers to sign up and assigned them to Class A.

Every time the school recruited students, they would be divided into classrooms. The best classroom was Class A, and the teachers in Class A were the best.

After signing up, the dean sent someone to send the three siblings to the school gate and instructed the brothers to come to the school for class tomorrow..
