It's just that as soon as he opened the door, when the old gentleman looked up and saw Zhao Rong, his expression was obviously stunned, and he looked at Zhao Rong in surprise, as if he shouldn't appear here.

And the old gentleman's surprised expression also made Zhao Rong's words that he wanted to say stuck in his throat. This pause made Zhao Rong's thoughts that he had just sorted out suddenly disrupted. At this time, he knew that it was not the time for him to speak, otherwise who would know what he would say under his chaotic thoughts. I still have to wait for a while, wait for the old gentleman to sit down at the desk, and then calm my thoughts, and then go to the old gentleman to ask for leave.

With a decision in his heart, Zhao Rong still sat at the desk, pretending to look at the books in his hand. When he saw that the old gentleman had only glanced at him, he turned his gaze back and did not get up and salute.

After all, the old gentleman had said before that when we met in the morning, there was no need to prevent Zhao Rong from saluting. Although Zhao Rong always felt that as a student, he should say hello to the teacher in the morning, but the old gentleman obviously exempted him from these vulgar courtesies.

This is also because the old gentleman never regarded Zhao Rong as his student. In his opinion, this Zhao Rong is just an additional condition for him to be able to see so many precious ancient books. Since it was just an additional condition, and the master didn't ask him to teach anything, the best way to deal with Zhao Rong was to ignore it.

Although the old gentleman asked Zhao Rong to stay next to the study, he didn't need this person to make any moves, and the old gentleman just used him as a prop, a task that he had to complete, nothing more.

Although Zhao Rong seemed calm on the surface and was still pretending to read, in fact, his thoughts were tumbling in his heart, and there was always a thought that kept coming up. Why was the old gentleman so surprised to see him? You must know that for so many years, he had followed the old gentleman in the study, and except for the occasional truancy, he sat here every day and watched the old gentleman enter the door.

When the old gentleman saw himself at first sight, he was indifferent, disdainful, and disgusted, but he was never surprised. This was the first time the old gentleman saw himself, and he actually showed such an obvious expression. Zhao Rong will inevitably play the drum in his heart, why, why is this old gentleman so abnormal today?

Unlike Zhao Rong's complicated heart, the thoughts in his heart kept surging, and he pretended to be calm on the surface, but the old gentleman directly said his own dishes: "Hey, why are you still here today?"

Since it was the old gentleman who asked the question, of course Zhao Rong had to answer, although the old gentleman stipulated that he could not take the initiative to speak back or make too much movement in the study, but since it was the old gentleman who raised the question, he should naturally answer it quickly.

But before Zhao Rong stood up and respectfully answered the old gentleman's question, the old gentleman's second sentence had already been said, "Didn't I tell you that day, is today the birthday of the elder of your Zhao family, since you want to participate, then go yourself, there is no need for me to take you over." ”

At this time, this old gentleman made up a lot of drama for Zhao Rong in his heart. He felt that the kid in front of him was pretending to be honest on the surface, but in fact he was very cunning. Zhao Rong wants to use his name as a great Confucian to add weight to himself.

Although the old gentleman doesn't know the current internal situation of the Zhao family, he also knows how many of these yin bosses are involved in these high-ranking families, and these people's hearts are twisted and turned. Calculating others is calculating home, so in the old gentleman's heart, Zhao Rong is also like this.

The reason why this kid came to the study despite the fact that he gave him a day off is probably because he wants to pretend to be a good student to deceive his sense of identity. And then in case he was soft-hearted, he might have agreed to go to the birthday banquet with him.

Then this kid will be able to rely on his name as a great Confucian, and make a good show, maybe even among brothers, this kid will establish his energy, so as to pull himself to his chariot.

Thinking of this, the old gentleman was certainly not in a good mood. It's just that he didn't expect that when he finished his second sentence, Zhao Rong's eyes on the other side seemed to shine.

How could Zhao Rong's eyes not be bright at this time, he suddenly remembered that it was indeed the day he saw that the housekeeper of the outer courtyard sent an invitation to the old gentleman, he did hear the old gentleman once said to himself that on the day of the birthday banquet, he could not come to the study.

Now he's almost jumping, and he's so happy. He never thought that his old gentleman would be able to open such a convenient door for himself. Now there is no need for him to find any reason to pretend to be sick, and then leave the study secretly, the old gentleman has already found a reason for him, and now he just leaves.

Although there is still some ambiguity in what the old gentleman said just now, at least Zhao Rong didn't understand why the old gentleman said that, and why he seemed to have to take him to the birthday banquet. In fact, it is impossible for him to attend this birthday banquet at all, and the old gentleman probably misunderstood something. But Zhao Rong didn't want to explain.

As for the old gentleman, he was impatient to listen to anyone's explanations. Once, the old gentleman asked Zhao Rong to find a book for him, but Zhao Rong rummaged through all the books on the shelf and did not find the one that the old gentleman said. There was no way, Zhao Rong could only go back to the old gentleman and tell him about the situation. But the old gentleman refused to admit it, and said very angrily: "I just put that book there yesterday, how can it be gone?"

The implication is that the old gentleman suspected that Zhao Rong had tampered with the books on his shelves. You must know that most of the books in this study belong to the old gentleman, and only a small part of the books are for Zhao Rong. It includes literacy books for enlightenment, as well as simple books such as the Four Books and the Five Classics, which are things that the old gentleman does not want to see and touch.

In the old gentleman's heart, he thinks that his study should be filled with books that are particularly profound and rare. And the old gentleman thinks that he has a very strong ability to control books, and he remembers the location of each book, so Zhao Rong told him that there is no book on the bookshelf that he wants, in fact, in the old gentleman's opinion, Zhao Rong is challenging his authority.

To this day, Zhao Rong still remembers this incident, and finally the book was found on the old man's desk. My AR goddess
