Chapter 216: Off-the-Field Matters
At the gate of the Tribute Courtyard, Xie Chunxi watched with hope as his brother and Liu Ximing and the others walked into the courtyard, and Xie Yuan next to him closed the gate of the Tribute Courtyard, and immediately said to her: "Miss, the third young master has one more day to take the exam, let's go back first." ”
Xie Chunxi finally came out justifiably, where would she be willing to go home so early, she thought about it, and said to Xie Yuan in a flattering tone: "Uncle Xie, the third brother is taking the exam today, how can I have the heart to do anything else, let's just wait here, there are so many teahouses here, you also happen to listen to the song." ”
"No", Xie Yuan categorically refused, he was clear about his young lady's habits, didn't he sneak away last time while the third young master was not paying attention, but he was almost abducted by human traffickers, and there were few people who came out with him today, if something happened in his hands, how could he explain it.
"There are too many idle people in the city, you are a delicate lady, what if something happens like last time?"
"This is a tribute courtyard, who dares to have such a big courage to be presumptuous here."
"It's not appropriate, let's go back and wait, Mrs. Tai should be in a hurry."
How could Xie Chunxi let go so easily, she grabbed Xie Yuan's sleeve and shook it for a while, "Oh, Xie Bo, please, let's stay a little longer." ”
Seeing that Xie Yuan still didn't agree, she was about to have some crooked idea as soon as her eyes rolled.
At this time, Wan'er, who was standing beside her, gently pulled her sleeve, "Miss, look over there." ”
Xie Chunxi looked over with some curiosity, and when she saw the person coming from the alley, her face showed a burst of joy, and the person who rescued the scene came.
She immediately rushed to the person and beckoned, "Li Biao, come here." ”
The person who came was Li Biao and his entourage, who escorted Liu Ximing, and because there were many people at the gate of the Gongyuan, Liu Ximing asked them to wait at the entrance of the alley.
Now that the Gongyuan has closed, Li Biao walked in with a group of more than a dozen people, wanting to find a restaurant opposite the Gongyuan to rest.
Hearing this call, Li Biao was stunned for a moment, and when he saw that it was Xie Chunxi, he hurriedly trotted over.
"Miss Xie, Steward Xie, why are you here?"
Xie Chunxi smiled like a cat that stole a fish, she pointed at Li Biao with her slender jade finger and said to Xie Yuan: "Li Biao is Brother Liu's guard, with these people, where do we have to worry about other people's bad intentions, Uncle Xie, you have no reason now." ”
Xie Yuan looked at Li Biao and other more than a dozen strong young men, and knew that his young lady was determined to stay here, so he had to sigh and accompany Xie Chunxi and the others to the Yingfu Pavilion at the gate of the Gongyuan to sit down and rest.
Huang Hongyi accompanied his son Huang Ruiyan to the Tribute Courtyard early in the morning, and when the Tribute Courtyard closed, he was a little relieved, so he found a private room by the window to drink tea and wait in the Yingfu attic.
Xie Chunxi shouted loudly, and Li Biao's voice suddenly woke him up from his dazed state.
Think of Gongin
The county test that was being held in Huang Hongyi stood up and walked towards the window with some annoyance, which one dared to make a loud noise here if he ate the heart of a bear leopard.
Hey?
Huang Hongyi poked his head out to take a look, immediately retracted his head, and said to Huang Lin, the housekeeper who was serving on the side: "Come and see, is that person the butler of the Cheng Mansion in Xie County?" ”
Hearing this, Huang Lin quickly stepped forward to the window and looked, "Master, it is Xie Yuan, the housekeeper of the Xie Mansion." ”
Huang Hongyi's eyes narrowed suddenly, and in the blink of an eye just now, he had already recognized the object of Xie Chunxi's beckoning, which was the person from Liu Ximing's family who he hated so much.
When he vaguely heard what Xie Chunxi said to Xie Yuan, he immediately instructed Huang Lin: "Go back and send someone to inquire about what Xie Chengzhou has to do with this Liu family." ”
"Yes, sir," Huang Lin nodded in response.
Xie Chunxi took Li Biao and others to find a private room on the second floor to sit down, the last visit to Liujia Village left a deep impression on her, whether it was the villagers who were cleanly dressed and energetic, or the various buildings with novel styles, they all made her very interested in what this brother did.
As soon as a group of people sat down, Xie Chunxi pestered Li Biao and asked him to tell him interesting things about Liujia Village during this time.
Li Biao has always been pulled by Liu Ximing to force him to carry out various leadership exercises recently, which has greatly changed from the appearance of the tongue a year ago, and the things in Liujiacun are also a set.
This chat was a morning, Xie Chunxi was quite curious about all the systems implemented in Liujiacun, and when he talked about the grievance campaign held in Liujiacun a few years ago, his eyes widened.
At this time, the gate of the Gongyuan squeaked open, and a figure came out of the crack in the door, and the people squatting outside the door and nearby were immediately alarmed by the movement.
"It's Brother Liu", Xie Chunxi looked at the door of the Gongyuan with some surprise, and suddenly jumped up from the stool and ran towards the door, "Let's go meet him." ”
Xie Yuan and the others hurriedly trotted all the way over.
Liu Ximing came out of the tribute courtyard and stretched his waist, and saw Xie Chunxi running over with a pigtail, as soon as he saw her youthful smile, Liu Ximing's mood that had become more cheerful because of Liu Jianhou suddenly became more hearty.
"Sister Xian, how do you know that I came out early, could it be that I made a special trip to wait for me here."
Now that the county test is in sight, Liu Ximing has no more burden, and he actually opened his mouth to laugh at Xie Chunxi.
Xie Chunxi's face turned red all of a sudden, and he hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "Brother Shi, why did you come out so quickly, could it be that you have already finished answering?" What about my third brother? ”
"Hahaha, if I don't finish answering, won't I give up the exam and won't be able to do it, Brother Wenle, I'm afraid it will take half a day for them to come out, let's find a place to eat first."
Xie Chunxi saw Liu Ximing's complacent look, her eyes lit up and she thought of something, "Look at Brother Shi."
This look, I think it is nine times out of ten, and the little sister congratulated her in advance. ”
Xie originally came to see Liu Ximing come out so quickly, and thought that something was wrong with him, but now he reacted when he heard his own young lady's words, and his own master usually praised this Liu Gongzi for his quick thinking, it won't really be nine out of ten.
Liu Ximing was tickled by Xie Chunxi's cute appearance, he quickly coughed twice, and silently suppressed other thoughts after ten years in his heart, but his problem of pretending to be forced was aroused again.
"I'm a free person, but I don't want to fulfill my wish, I want to keep a low profile for my brother, it's really too simple to answer the test questions in this subject, and I accidentally finished answering it smoothly, Liu Yushi and Zhang Zhixian, who were in charge of the invigilation before leaving, also specially reminded me, let me be a little more careful."
The people who came around felt as uncomfortable as eating flies, damn it, I've seen someone pretending to be forced, I've never seen someone like you, what does it mean to finish answering accidentally, so why didn't I see other students submit the papers in advance.
"Let's go, talk while eating", Liu Ximing saw that the pretense was a bit excessive, and the faces of the surrounding onlookers were a little unpleasant, so frightened that he hurriedly beckoned Xie Chunxi and the others to leave the gate together.
"Brother Shi, are you really confident? Liu Yushi: Do you have a few comments after reading your volume? ”
Xie Chunxi asked as he walked with his sparkling eyes.
Liu Ximing smiled and didn't say much, leaving Xie Chunxi with infinite imagination, and turned his head to ask about her recent situation.
Xie Chunxi is a small person in the end, and he heard Li Biao tell the story of Liujia Village before, and now that the main person is here, where can he still hold back the conversation, and it is a good chat to hold Liu Xi's life.
"Let's put it down"
By the time of the afternoon application, the first day of the county examination was finally over, and as the gate opened, hundreds of students flocked out of the Gongyuan.
Liu Ximing took Xie Chunxi and others to wait at the door early, Xie Wenle came over and smashed Liu Ximing on the shoulder, "You kid, you ran out in the morning, so that my thoughts were interrupted, don't you know, when Liu Yushi scolded you, my brother was also scared enough, you have to compensate me for this." ”
"Hahaha, how can I be blamed for this, if you want to blame you, you have to blame Liu Yushi."
Xie Wenle was already joking, and immediately turned his mouth and asked: "Looking at your appearance, I think it is because of the praise of Liu Yushi and others, how about it, Jinke should be fine, right?" ”
Liu Ximing was about to say a few words modestly, but he saw Lu Jiahong come out of the tribute courtyard listlessly.
His eyes lit up, and he stopped in front of the road, "Yo, this is not Lu Gongzi, the head of the current case, why are you so listless, could it be that today's topic is too simple, you can't be interested?" ”
"Hahaha"
Du Liangji, Zhao Xiangyang and others had also heard Lu Jiahong's nonsense before, and now they heard Liu Ximing laughing and laughing, and they laughed one by one.
