Youshu felt that Ji Changye was very unhappy, and when he delayed the other party's time, he pushed him out of the courtyard door and urged, "The master will go first, and I will come later." The words lifted up the hem of his overly long garment and tucked it into his belt.

Song Shi hurriedly pointed to the dustpan and bud rice on the ground, "Shu'er, help my mother sweep the yard, and then feed the chickens and ducks." "It's a moment to keep it.

Youshu nodded, picked up a broom and cleaned the courtyard. The yard is not big, but because of a group of chickens and ducks, the smell is a little unpleasant, and there is a lot of feces accumulated on the ground, so it is not easy to clean up. The average boy and brother have long covered their noses and avoided it, but there is Shu but there is no discomfort at all, and they will carefully shovel off the dry and clumped chicken manure and duck manure with a shovel.

Song looked at his well-behaved and sensible son, distressed and proud.

After sweeping the courtyard, Youshu drove the chickens and ducklings running all over the ground back to the shed, threw some broken buds and rotten vegetable leaves, and then turned to look at Song, "What other work do you have to do?" ”

The stunned Song immediately came back to his senses, pointed to the house, and then to the water tank, "Yes, yes, the house must also be cleaned, especially the kitchen." There is no water in the tank, so it has to be filled. There is a lot of work, and I can't finish it with Mother Song and Bai Shao. ”

Mother Song and Bai Shao nodded hurriedly, and shouted in their hearts: Young master, our family needs you very much, so you can stay!

Youshu is not afraid of a lot of work, but she is afraid that they will not let them do it, and they will enter the house with a broom.

Ji Changye, who had been standing outside the door expressionlessly, finally moved. He took a few steps forward, tightly grasped the young man's slender wrist, and said softly, "Youshu, you are already sixteen years old, you should know how to avoid suspicion." Inside the house is the boudoir of Mrs. Song, Mother Song, and Bai Shao, how can you step into it casually? If Mrs. Song is short of manpower, this king will send a few handmaidens over, is this good? ”

Ancient women paid attention to a name, and the Song family and Song's mother were just that, but Bai Shao was in the middle of the flower letter and should be avoided. Thinking of this, Youshu immediately retreated and went to fetch water instead. Ji Changye took the barrel and the flat pole from his hand, and smiled while slowly rolling up his sleeves, "It's better for me to come, lest you fall into the river later." Look at this slippery palm, if it is worn out by the burden, this king should be distressed. ”

He grabbed the boy's wrist, spread his white-tender palm in front of his eyes, and patted it gently. This attitude is nothing more than a complaint to the Song family, Youshu has never suffered hardship, on the contrary, he is doing well, and he has never been reluctant to let him do these dirty work.

They want to use this method to keep Youshu, or he will help them himself, but he wants to see if they can afford it.

Ji Changye is a nobleman, and the Song family and others naturally can't afford it, so they hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the barrel, saying that they didn't dare to bother the prince. Ji Changye asked again what work could not be done, and several people shook their heads in unison, with embarrassed expressions.

"In this way, this king will take Shu one step ahead." Ji Changye smiled and waved his hand.

The Song family couldn't, so they had to nod and agree, but they grabbed their son and pleaded, "Can the prince allow the people's wife and Shu'er to say a few words alone?" ”

Youshu also looked at the master with blank eyes.

Ji Changye was panicked in his heart, but his face was indistinguishable, and turning his back was a tacit acquiescence.

The mother and son walked into the room. Song broke his son's hands and touched them carefully to make sure that there was no callus on it, and no half of the scar was left, so he sighed, "The third prince really didn't treat my son badly, Fang Cai's mother misunderstood." But my mother had a few words to explain. Son, don't look at the third prince smiling all day long, and he treats people gently and kindly, but he is the concubine of the queen of the Yuan, and he not only grew up safely when his mother family was wiped out, but also recaptured the prince, which shows that he is a scheming person. Your background is not simple, and he may not be sincere when he treats you like this. Mother is not separating your relationship with him, she just wants to give you a piece of advice: don't tie your net worth and life to someone. It is better for a man to live by no one than on himself. ”

Speaking of this, she hesitated for a few breaths, and said, "Although my mother doesn't understand the government, she also knows that with the background of the third prince, she will inevitably fight, and if you don't fight, it will be a dead end." It is possible that he will go to Jingzhou to leap forward, or he may not recover. If you can, find a way to stay in Shangjing, live a peaceful and stable life with your mother, and don't get involved in the battle for succession. ”

Youshu didn't like the Song family to slander the master, but his face was not revealed. Whether the master treats himself sincerely or falsely, how can he not perceive it with his strong spiritual power? Besides, even if he wanted to go to Jingzhou with him, the master would not agree. However, there was a sentence in Song's heart that did go to his heart. It is better for a man to live by no one than on himself. Putting one's life on the line of others is indeed a very risky move.

Youshu in his previous life would never be so confused, but in this life, he gradually indulged in the gentle care of his master, and unconsciously relied on it. This habit is not good, it is better to get rid of it as soon as possible, otherwise after the two are separated, the master will not be good, but he is very likely to be doomed.

Thinking of this, Youshu's expression froze, and she nodded, "Mother misunderstood again, the master treats me sincerely, he doesn't want to take me to Jingzhou, but buys a house in the capital to settle us." Just those words, my mother will not mention them again in the future. ”

Hearing that his son was going to stay in Shangjing with him, the Song family was completely relieved, and nodded again and again.

Ji Changye waited impatiently, and was about to ask Ah Da and Ah Er to call someone, when he saw the mother and son come out hand in hand, with a relaxed expression. Song handed over the package in his hand and said sincerely, "I heard Shu'er say that the prince helped him buy a house, and the women are grateful. However, there is no merit, Shu'er has been taken care of by the prince since she was a child, and she already owes a lot to the prince, so how can she receive the favor of the prince again? This is the self-friendliness accumulated by the people's women, and the prince is invited to accept it with a smile. ”

Ji Changye smiled at the corner of his mouth, but he was extremely angry in his heart. He should have shared the real estate he bought for Youshu, but how did it become a mercy in Song's mouth? This attitude is tantamount to separating himself from Youshu. Just now, I don't know what she said, will she separate her relationship with Youshu?

Ji Changye was full of remorse, and felt that it was a great mistake to come to see the Song family with Shu. However, he was reluctant to reach out to pick it up, but Youshu took the first step to hold the package in his arms, and said slowly, "The mother of the silver couple who bought the house will cushion it for me first, and I will work hard to make money to make up the rest in the future." ”

"Okay, good, our Shu'er is ambitious!" The son is not separated from himself, the Song family is overjoyed, touches the hair on the back of his head, and said with a smile, "You are not too young, it's time to save some money to marry a daughter-in-law." Mother is here to help you find one or two, you remember to come back and see. We don't climb the noble family, we just need to have a clean family background and good conduct. ”

Youshu felt that she was not yet an adult and should not get married, but it was not good to refuse in person, blinking her big black and white eyes and saying yes, but she thought in her heart that she could delay it until she was twenty years old.

He agreed without hesitation here, but Ji Changye, who also wanted to find a candidate for Youshu, was shocked and angry, and almost couldn't maintain a gentle mask. Although he said that he would let Youshu start a family as soon as possible, it was all a shadowless thing, so he naturally didn't feel it deeply. However, after all, the Song family is Youshu's mother, as the so-called "parents' orders, matchmakers' words", once the Song family chooses, Youshu can only obey.

The children who are carefully cared for by themselves have become someone else's family in the blink of an eye, and they are still at the mercy of wantonly. Although Song's arrangement was consistent with his own thoughts, Ji Changye also found it difficult to accept. He was very angry in his heart, but he had no excuse to attack, his expression was still so gentle, but his eyes were cold and terrifying.

He was sure once again that bringing Shu to see the Song family was indeed the stupidest decision.

"Youshu is still young, and it's too early to talk about marriage. This king has donated his fame to Youshu, and he will be able to participate in the imperial examination in the spring of next year. If you want to start a family, you should wait until after high school. His voice was flat, but his mind was churning.

Hearing that his son could participate in the imperial examination, Song was very happy, and naturally stopped mentioning the matter of seeing his daughter-in-law. It's not good if you distract your son.

Participating in the imperial examination is equivalent to the grading examination, you can have a good job after being admitted, and you can eat delicacies from the mountains and seas with a good job.

"Hold on to the reins." Ji Changye pulled his lips, lifted the thin young man up, put it on the horse's back, and then whipped it fiercely, seeing a man and a horse disappear at the end of the village road, he bowed his head at the Song family slightly, "Mrs. Song, this king has taken his leave." ”

Poor Mrs. Song still wanted to ask her son when he would come again, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she was driven away, so she had to force a smile and salute-

When rushing back to the capital, Youshu ate a mouthful of plaster. I don't know why the master was in a bad mood, he galloped along the way, without saying a word, and he wanted to talk, but he was glared at several times. He was aggrieved in his heart, and his mouth pouted unconsciously.

When the party entered the gate, they turned over and dismounted, so as not to run into the people on both sides of the road. After walking slowly for a while, Ji Changye finally regained his calmness, turned his hair and turned his hair to Shu's small mouth to hang an oil bottle, and his cold and hard heart was immediately crispy and soft.

"There's a mallet fruit and ear eye fried cake for sale, do you want it?" He pointed ahead.

"Yes." Youshu instantly put aside her distracting thoughts and ran towards the stall.

Ji Changye shook his head and smiled, took out a few copper plates from his purse, and quickly followed. There is something to eat, Youshu naturally won't think about it anymore, and said vaguely while chewing, "Master, go and see the house you bought for me, if you can live in it, I will take my mother, Mother Song, and Bai Shao back." ”

The corners of Ji Changye's mouth pressed down, and he said, "It has been roughly repaired, and I can barely live there, but I am not in a hurry." Let's wait until the matter of the Wang family is completely resolved, so as not to implicate your mother. "In this way, I can always delay until I leave Shangjing.

Youshu thought about it too, but insisted on going to take a look.

Ji Changye couldn't, so he had to take him there, and once again doubted in his heart whether his decision was right or wrong. Seeing that Youshu is like this, she really plans to start a family, why doesn't she feel relaxed at all, but even more depressed?

Although the pace was deliberately slowed down, the house was still close at hand, and it was only after two more alleys were bypassed. It is a place where the royal family lived, and the environment is very quiet, and the houses on both sides are also magnificent and magnificent. However, as soon as they walked around the corner, they heard a heart-rending cry, and when the group looked up, they saw many officials blocking the door of a certain mansion, and the plaque on the door beam was impressively written with two gilded characters - Wangfu.

This is, Wang Xiangqian's home? Seeing a few familiar faces, Youshu frowned secretly.
