Chapter 292 Mr. Li’s Plan
However, from what Mr. Li said, does it mean that he wants Li Zhengxue to continue studying at Baima Academy?
It has become such a mess. It will take a while to find the lost person. Will Li Zhengxue be willing to do so? Li Mingxia was very skeptical about this.
After hearing what Mr. Li said, Hua Shi and Li Dalang looked a little unpredictable, and no one knew what they were thinking.
Li Mingxia felt that Hua seemed willing and agreed with Mr. Li's approach, but Li Dalang did not look very happy.
What was going on? Didn't Li Dalang always hope that Li Zhengxue could make a name for himself and lead him to a life of wealth and glory? Logically speaking, shouldn't Li Dalang be the one who most wanted Li Zhengxue to go back to school?
Everyone understood what Mr. Li meant, and Madam Cao and Master Cao were no exception. At this moment, Master Cao actually felt a little happy.
"Do you mean that you want Li Zhengxue to return to Baima Academy?" Master Cao didn't want to beat around the bush. He had been very upset in the past two days and was eager to take the initiative, so he simply said it before Mr. Li spoke.
"Yes, Master Cao, look at this matter--" Old Master Li's eyes lit up. He originally thought that this matter must be difficult to handle. Master Cao was very angry with Li Zhengxue and would definitely not easily respond to this conversation. However, he did not expect it to be so smooth?
Master Cao interrupted Mr. Li and said, "I understand what you mean, but you don't even think about what kind of place my White Horse Academy is. There are so many students who have tried their best to get a place. The relationship between Li Zhengxue and I as teacher and student has ended. You don't need to say more."
Mr. Li's heart sank. He had thought that if Master Cao had said it directly, then there would be a chance for this matter. But he didn't expect that Master Cao would not give him any chance at all and directly rejected it. What was going on? It seemed that he had already given in just now!
"I advise you not to waste your time. I don't think Li Zhengxue wants to go back, so let's not mention this matter anymore." Master Cao glanced at Li Zhengxue, who was sitting on the kang without saying a word, and said in a cold voice.
Mr. Li and Li Mingxia both let out a long sigh in their hearts.
Master Cao's meaning is very clear. No matter what you want to do, Li Zhengxue must be the one to initiate the matter. No one else's words will work.
This was not a difficult task, not to mention that Li Zhengxue was a junior. Even if he was not, it would not be a big deal to bow your head when asking for help. What's more, Li Zhengxue had offended Master Cao so much.
"Indeed, I think Young Master Li also looks down on our master. Why does he still say that he wants to return to the White Horse Academy? Our small temple cannot afford to support a big Buddha like you. In the future, no matter what abilities Young Master Li has, he should go use them somewhere else. We at the White Horse Academy dare not provoke him." Madam Cao sneered and swept her eyes over Li Zhengxue and Hua with strong dissatisfaction.
If it was just because of Li Zhengxue's blackmail, Mrs. Cao would not be too angry. It was just a matter of some silver. But Li Zhengxue had just killed Master Cao, and this made Mrs. Cao hate him.
"The child is ignorant. You are a magnanimous person. Don't worry about it. If you are unhappy, you can beat or scold him. It's up to you. He is your student, just like your son!" Hua said sincerely.
Li Dalang curled his lips, not liking Hua's words. This was his son, how could he become someone else's? How could they be the same? Why was this woman so inarticulate now? Where did her former cleverness go?
But seeing that Mr. Li looked at Hua with admiration, Li Dalang knew that he could not speak at this time. Otherwise, not only would he get nothing in return, but he would also be punished by Mr. Li after Master Cao and the others left.
"Just say the word, and I will make this child kneel down at the gate of the academy and apologize to you, Master!" Old Master Li said immediately when he saw that Master Cao and Madam Cao were silent.
These words touched Master Cao's heart. This was the first time in all the years since the academy opened that it had encountered such an indecent thing. Li Zhengxue's reckless behavior made the matter go from being ugly at the beginning to being embarrassing and even a little tricky.
Master Cao naturally felt embarrassed and even gave his students a holiday because of this matter.
Now, if Li Zhengxue is willing to kneel down at the gate of the academy and admit his mistake, then the gossip caused by this matter will naturally be resolved. If it were any other Master Cao, he would naturally not be tempted, and Madam Cao would never give in, but if this is the case, you have to think carefully about it.
"Kneel down and admit your mistake? Is Master Li really willing to do such a thing? If it were me, I would say that it would be better not to embarrass others and let the matter drop!" Mrs. Cao received Master Cao's secret look, understood what he meant, and spoke.
It sounded like a rejection, but in fact it was a step forward, just wanting Li Zhengxue to speak himself.
At this point, Li Mingxia was really curious about what choice Li Zhengxue would make.
Mr. Li and Mrs. Hua anxiously urged Li Zhengxue, "Hurry up and speak! Master Cao values you. If it were someone else, Master Cao wouldn't even be able to speak after doing so many stupid things, and you still don't kowtow to the Master in gratitude!"
In fact, if Li Zhengxue was asked to kowtow and admit his mistake right now, no one would ask him to do so. After all, the injuries on Li Zhengxue's body were real. If he really knelt down now, he might die before getting the desired effect. He just needed to show an attitude now.
Li Zhengxue's expression changed several times, and it was obvious that he was very conflicted. He was angry and ashamed for a while, thinking that he would never have the opportunity to study again in his life, so he didn't care. Now he was given a gap the size of a "dog hole". If he wanted to drill into it, he would have to give up his dignity. Li Zhengxue hesitated.
"Unfilial thing!" How could Mr. Li not see what Li Zhengxue was thinking? At this moment, he wanted to beat this idiot to death. If he had such ambition, he should have passed the imperial examination long ago. If he had achieved fame now, who would be bullied here? It's because he has no future, but now he wants to save face! It's really ridiculous!
Mr. Li raised the pipe in his hand and was about to give Li Zhengxue a beating, wanting to see if he could wake this fool up. However, Li Dalang stopped him regardless of anything. He even pushed him so hard that Mr. Li staggered.
