Chapter 45: Preparation

Not to mention what happened after Xu Xuan returned to Qingyutang, just said that Xu Jiaorong hurriedly ran home, since she got married, she felt that she was not as good as Li Gongfu in this kind of major event, so if she felt that she couldn't make up her mind, she would still ask Li Gongfu.

"Gongfu, Gongfu" Xu Jiaorong shouted as soon as she entered the house.

"Hey, I know, don't shout so much, let the neighbors hear it, like something" Li Gongfu came out of the hall and said to Xu Jiaorong.

Xu Jiaorong stared, "What if they heard it?" I call my men by name, what does it matter to them? Why, aren't you just a head catcher, can't you call your name and live a life? ”

When Li Gongfu heard that Xu Jiaorong was in a hurry, he hurriedly changed the topic, "Okay, okay, what's the matter with you being so anxious?" ”

Sure enough, Xu Jiaorong was immediately diverted by Li Gongfu, "Gongfu, I was just about to tell you, just now I went back to get the quilt, and I happened to meet the second brother, so I don't need to send him a quilt......"

"Let's talk about the point......" Li Gongfu hurriedly interrupted Xu Jiaorong, his wife, sometimes a little confused.

"The second brother said that he was going to study," this time Xu Jiaorong was concise and to the point, in a word, the matter was clear.

At this time, Xu Xian also came out of the room, and when he heard Xu Jiaorong's words, he was surprised, "What's the matter, the second brother wants to study?" Why didn't I know that he entered that school? However, in the current situation of our family, I am afraid that I can't afford it with one more reader, otherwise I won't study. Let the second brother read it."

"How can that be?" Li Gongfu opened his mouth and interrupted Xu Xian, "Although you are not very good at studying, but you can be regarded as a serious student, it is a pity to give up like this, besides, Xu Xuan doesn't know what the situation is, even if he is replaced, he may not be much better than Xu Xian, as for money, you don't have to worry, your brother-in-law and I are also head-catchers, there will always be a way"

However, although Li Gongfu said this, his frowning brows still reminded him that he was also a little worried in his heart.

"The second brother said, we don't have to worry about the shackles, as long as we follow the ancient etiquette," Xu Jiaorong said in a low voice on the side.

"How is it possible, which academy will not be restrained? Oh, by the way, where did Xu Xian study? Li Gongfu asked impatiently.

"It seems that he has a room with the surname Cheng, oh, Xu Xuan also calls him Bachelor Cheng." Xu Jiaorong replied uncertainly.

"Could it be that the second brother was deceived?" Xu Xian also thought about it for a long time, but still didn't remember that there was such a character

"That guy in Qiantang County was kicked in the head by a donkey, and he dared to deceive the brother-in-law who caught the head?" Li Gongfu glared at Xu Xian,

"Bachelor Cheng, what kind of room is Cheng, I haven't heard of this person in Qiantang County" Li Gongfu lowered his head and paced in this room, thinking,

Cheng Fang! Li Gongfu's mind suddenly popped up with this name, and Li Gongfu muttered in disbelief, "Xu Xuan said, it shouldn't be this person, right?" If it were him, he would really be blind to that little restraint. ”

"Gongfu (brother-in-law), do you know this person?" Xu Jiaorong and Xu Xian asked in unison.

"I don't know if it's in, there is a person in Qiantang County whose rights are now greater than Yang Zhi County, that is, Cheng Fang Cheng, who investigated the case of Qiu Wangye, is the current prefect, and he has to be polite when he sees him, but Cheng Bachelor is busy with this case, and he was tired and sick a few days ago, it shouldn't be him, right?" Li Gongfu said hesitantly.

"Hey, what about him so much, the second brother said, this person and Wang Shibo have already discussed, let Xu Xuan study medicine in the morning and follow him to study in the afternoon," Xu Jiaorong added,

"Can't you tell it all? Isn't it interesting that they are always collapsing out like this? If so, let Xu read the book! Lack of pen, ink, paper, inkstone or silver, my old Li is out! Li Gongfu gritted his teeth and said, if one of the two wives and brothers is really promising, his brother-in-law also has a light on his face, right?

Xu Jiaorong also reacted at this time, "Okay, I'll talk to Xu Xuan tomorrow and send him two pieces of money first, although people always don't want to be restrained, but this etiquette is indispensable." It's also our heart."

"Okay, okay, you just watch it, there is something to do in the yamen tonight, I won't come back, you close the doors and windows at home, be careful" Li Gongfu said, holding a waist knife, and walked towards the gate.

"Hey, have you eaten?" Xu Jiaorong saw that Li Gongfu was leaving, and hurriedly shouted, but at this time, Li Gongfu had already opened the door and walked out.

The next day, Xu Xuan opened the door of Qingyu Hall, and when he was cleaning, he only heard a sound of footsteps, Xu Xuan lowered his head and swept the floor, and said without raising his head, "You are here to see a doctor, please wait a moment, the master and senior brother will come out after eating." ”

At this moment, a pair of black boots appeared in front of Xu Xuan, who was sweeping the floor, Xu Xuan raised his head a little annoyed, only to see Li Gongfu dressed as a public man, looking at him with a smile.

"Brother-in-law? What are you doing here? Xu Xuan asked with some surprise, saying that since Xu Jiaorong and Li Gongfu got married, Xu Xuan rarely went back, and Li Gongfu also came here to see Xu Xuan because he had just ascended to the position of catching the head, so these two met for the first time after Xu Jiaorong got married.

Li Gongfu was called by Xu Xuan's brother-in-law, and his face was red, to be honest, he still can't accept this title.

But where could he let Xu Xuan see it, and then interrupted Xu Xuan's attention with a smile, "What's the matter, I can't come to see you if I'm fine?" ”

But when he said this, he took out two strings of copper coins from his arms, "Oh, this money will buy things for you for the teacher first, not enough to get it at home, I asked your sister to prepare two for you, it should be enough for you, you kid, you have to study hard in the future, if you are like Xu Xian, eat the teacher's board in the school all day long." ”

After that, he stood up and patted Xu Xuan's shoulder, "It's only been a long time, your kid has grown so tall, and his clothes are a little small, I'll ask your sister to make you clothes for the past two days, okay, you're busy, I'm leaving"

"Brother-in-law, let's go, drink some tea and leave" Xu Xuan said, pouring a cup of tea from the teapot prepared for Wang Fengshan.

Li Gongfu shook his head, "Your brother-in-law just came back from night and was drinking tea, I will sleep today, Xu Xuan is doing a good job, don't embarrass your brother-in-law." After speaking, Li Gongfu walked out of the pharmacy and disappeared into the flow of people.

Xu Xuan looked at Li Gongfu's tired body, slowly disappeared, sighed leisurely, and put away the money on the table, in the final analysis, he still has to use money, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, he doesn't have any of them, that is, the four books and five classics are not complete, these have to be bought. However, fortunately, today's printing industry in the Great Song Dynasty is extremely developed, and these things are available in the bookstore next door, and the price is not too expensive, so Xu Xuan has saved his effort.
