Chapter 42: Temporary Rest

It is said that when a few people were discussing and discussing in the pavilion, the old man Liu also happened to pass by at this time, and saw a group of teenagers talking and discussing here, with their own granddaughters and grandsons, as well as some face-to-face people. I was also curious, so I walked over to this side to find out.

"Hello old lady!" With the applause of the servants, everyone's eyes had already turned to Liu Gong, the old man who came over, and Liu Yi and Liu Mei also stepped forward to say hello.

"Grandpa, why are you here?" Liu Mei immediately held Liu Gong's hand like a little girl and greeted her cordially.

"Why, don't you go to Grandpa's study to sit down, what are you talking about here? Today Grandpa has made a few good works, which are better than what he has done before. No one shared this joy, so I wanted to go out of the study to go around, breathe, and just meet you, so I will share the joy of sharing grandpa with you. Liu Gong said with a smile.

"Grandpa is originally skilled, what is better than before, I think grandpa, you have been sitting in the house for a long time, you want to come out to bask in the sun!" Liu Yi said jokingly.

Liu Gong burst out laughing again, happy for the two clever grandchildren. Inadvertently, he saw Liu Feng with an embarrassed face on the side, so he stopped laughing and walked towards Liu Feng.

"What's the matter? Are you Yi'er's friend? Are you unhappy? Your face is so ugly, is it Yi'er that they are bullying you, tell your grandfather Liu to listen, I will scold them for you." Liu Gong said with gentle and kind words.

"No, we didn't bully him, he just wanted to come to us as a servant, so we were ready to take him. Liu Mei hurriedly explained.

At this time, Liu Feng did not reply, because any rebuttal did not seem to be so important to him, and the most important thing was to get his wooden sword back. And Liu Gong also seemed to sense that something was wrong, and his face darkened suddenly, and asked Liu Yi on the side: "Yi'er, you say, what's going on?"

Liu Yi also knew that the paper couldn't hold the fire in the end, so he wanted to confess, but Liu Mei kept pulling Liu Yi's sleeve, telling him not to say it, this little action had already been seen by Liu Gong, and he felt more and more strange about right and wrong, so he said: "Mei'er, let your brother say." ”

Liu Mei pouted and walked to the side, sulking.

Then Liu Yi told Liu Gong the whole thing in 1510, Liu Gong sighed and felt a little disappointed, he didn't expect his favorite granddaughter to be so rude and willful, blaming himself for being too pampered, he also felt that he was also at fault, but he also blamed Liu Mei.

Although he blamed Liu Mei, Liu Gong still turned around and said to Liu Feng: "Young man, the old man has no way to teach, it's really offended. Then he bowed to Liu Feng and apologized.

And Liu Mei was a little angry: "Grandpa." "It's like saying that I'm not wrong, and there's no need to do that. Liu Gong scolded her, and his attitude was particularly sincere.

At this time, Liu Feng was all in his eyes, such a noble person actually apologized to his nameless person, where could he afford it, he hurriedly stepped forward to help Liu Gong, and hurriedly said: "The old man is serious, I can't help it, where can I Liu Feng afford it, hurry up." ”

Liu Feng helped Liu Gong up, and then he picked up a glimmer of hope again, and said to Liu Gong: "Grandpa Liu, in fact, I don't have anything, it's just that Miss Liu took my wooden sword, and I just came to the house, and the wooden sword is very important to me, so can you?"

Liu Gong looked at the wooden sword in Liu Mei's hand, and immediately understood what Liu Feng meant, so he said to Liu Mei: "Mei'er, since it's not your thing, give it back to others, and apologize to Liu Feng's son." ”

Liu Mei was very reluctant and stood aside, Liu Gong said a little angrily: "Mei'er, be obedient." ”

"Hmph!" Liu Mei walked up to Liu Feng with a stomach full of resentment, and threw the wooden sword to Liu Feng, Liu Feng held the wooden sword, as if happy, and looked around to check the situation of the wooden sword.

Liu Gong stroked his long beard at this time, and felt a sense of affection while looking at this willow wind, and instantly fell in love with this willow wind, and he didn't know the details, probably because Liu Feng was also surnamed Liu.

At this time, Liu Feng took the wooden sword, and after it was correct, he wanted to say goodbye. And that Liu Mei was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "Liu Feng, don't forget, what you promised me, don't be discredited, hum!"

When Liu Gong was about to say that Liu Mei was messing around, Jiang Tong, who had been silent for a long time, secretly observed this old man Liu, and found that he seemed to appreciate Liu Feng very much, and dared to step forward and say: "Old lady Liu, my name is Jiang Tong, I am from this Jiangdu, I and Liu Feng, we are friends together." In fact, I think it's not unreasonable for Miss Liu to say, you really have to be honest, no matter who is right or wrong, since my brother promised Miss Liu just now, you must do it. ”

"What are you talking about?" Liu Feng was a little anxious, and hurriedly grabbed Jiang Tong, wanting to tell him to stop talking.

But Jiang Tong seemed to have seized this opportunity and continued: "Listen to me, old lady, you see, in fact, we don't want to hide it from you, we are indeed in trouble now, if you can take us in, we will definitely be grateful to you, and this is just the right time for my brother not to be a person who betrays his faith." Please also ask the old lady to do it!" Jiang Tong knelt on the ground after speaking, and his feelings were sincere.

This Liu Gong originally had a slight appreciation for this willow wind and wanted to keep him by his side, but he had no reason. It's good now, Jiang Tong came out like this, and he did Liu Gong a favor, which happened to be in line with his heart.

"Hurry up. Liu Gong called Jiang Tong up, and said to Liu Feng: "Liu Shaoxia, I don't know what you mean? If you are willing, I can accept you two and stay in Liufu to settle down." If you feel wronged, you don't have to do any rough work, but you can be a scholar by my side, and you can read with me every day, practice calligraphy, or draw some calligraphy and painting. ”

Liu Feng hesitated, but Jiang Tong kept pulling him, and whispered: "If you don't agree, you can't find a livelihood anyway, you want to starve to death! Don't forget how many children there are, you still have to go to the rivers and lakes!"

That Liu Mei also added fuel to the fire: "Liu Feng, don't forget your promise." He twisted Liu Yi beside him. Liu Yi endured the pain and said, "Yes, yes, don't forget." Then he whispered: "Where is this?" to show his incomprehension and helplessness.

Liu Feng saw that he had obtained his sword, and he could no longer have been involved with the Liu family, but when he thought of what Jiang Tong said, he hesitated in his heart, and then looked at the old lady Liu in front of him, and he also had some appreciation for himself. There is really no better place to go, and secondly, it can solve the immediate urgency, so after thinking twice, he said: "Thank you for the appreciation of the old lady Liu, Liu Feng is willing to stay with the old lady for the time being, but Liu Feng's ugly words still have to be said in front, if the old lady is unwilling, we have to find another him." ”

"Okay, you can start with that. ”

"Actually, there is nothing, that is, we can serve at the house during the day and go home at night. Another point is that I am a foreigner, yearning for the wandering of the rivers and lakes, asking for the sword, if one day, I want to leave, and ask the old lady for permission. For these two requests, if the old lady can agree, Liu Feng should also try his best to serve you. Although he was begging for someone, Liu Feng was still neither humble nor arrogant.

"Okay, you don't want to live in the house, I don't force you to be with you, it's you who are free, if you have a place to go in the future, I won't stop you, after all, my old man will not hinder young people from pursuing their ideals, so like this, are you willing?" asked Liu Gong with a loving face.

Liu Feng and Jiang Tong glanced at each other, both of them were happy, and hurriedly thanked each other! Liu Gong laughed, and Liu Mei was also secretly happy, so it seemed that they all followed their wishes.

After Liu Yan and his wife went home, they were also happy to learn that their father had accepted the two, after all, their old father was old, and it was good to have a cherished person by his side, so he didn't blame Liu Mei too much.

In this way, Liu Feng and Jiang Tong entered the Liu Mansion, and Jiang Tong chose a fat errand in the mansion, that is, he went to the kitchen to be a cupboarder, and Liu Feng followed Liu Gong and entered the ten thousand study to serve.

Life seems to be like this, Liu Gong will teach Liu Feng some calligraphy and painting skills in his spare time, Liu Feng is also serious in learning, and he makes rapid progress. And that Liu Mei always borrowed her late brother Liu Chen to come to Wan Shu Zhai to play, and she often ran to this Wan Shu Zhai with him, and gradually rarely went out of the house.

Although Liu Feng has changed his opinion of her, in his heart, his perception of Liu Mei is still rude and willful, in short, he doesn't like it, no matter what, it's not good.

And that Liu Yi is much more relaxed without Liu Mei's companionship, and he often goes out to play, and he has become more and more close to Li Shen. Later, Li Shen privately asked Liu Yi to introduce him, saying that he wanted to visit Mrs. Liu. This Liu Gong had already said to the outside world that he would not usually meet outsiders, and this Liu Yi didn't know it, but it was strange that he was here, and he still agreed to the invitation to be introduced.

A few days later, Li Shen really entered Liufu under the guidance of Liu Yi, which really surprised Liu Yan. But the matter has come to this point, and there is no other way, so he sent someone to Wanshuzhai to ask his old father Liu Gong.

It is said that on that day, Liu Gong was teaching Liu Feng's calligraphy and painting skills in Wan Shuzhai, and Liu Feng was also serious in learning, and his progress was obvious to all, and Liu Gong was also very pleased. Liu Mei on the side also looked at it seriously, but she didn't have the comprehension of Liu Feng, let alone Liu Chen, who was still playing with mud on the side.

After the pen was drawn, Liu Feng showed the finished painting to Liu Gong, Liu Gong put the painting on the table, looked at it carefully, and showed a satisfied smile on his face. At this time, Liu Mei had also been painted, Liu Gong compared left and right, and couldn't bear to hit Liu Mei, so he had to say that there was progress to show comfort.

At this time, although Liu Feng knew that he had achieved quite a lot of achievements in calligraphy and painting, he still looked sullen, and Liu Gong also saw his displeasure, so he asked him: "Feng'er, what's wrong? Liu Gong looked up at Liu Mei on the side, Liu Mei knew that she was talking about her, and stuck out her tongue helplessly.

Liu Feng smiled forcibly at this time and said, "Grandpa, you are laughing, I can have such a result, thank you very much, I am depressed not because this painting is good or not." It's just that what I yearn for in my heart is not this calligraphy, calligraphy and painting, but the swordsman monk on the top of the mountain, which is what I once told you. ”

Liu Gong, who was still smiling, had no smile at this time, he knew that this child would leave one day, no matter how much he tried to keep it, it was impossible. But when I think about it again, isn't that how young people are like this, the sky is high and the birds fly, everyone has what they want to pursue in their lives, and after living for so long, how can they force others to be free and do things that others don't want for their own selfishness? Thinking of this, Liu Gong's heart felt better.

At this moment, Liu Gong was just about to say something, and a servant hurriedly walked in to report.
