Chapter 188: Not doing business

Early in the morning, Li Xiu exercised in the courtyard.

He clearly felt that in addition to the beginning when his kung fu improved by leaps and bounds, in the following half a year, the progress in kung fu was not very obvious.

This made Li Xiu a little depressed, could it be that he couldn't beat Wang Bing in his life?

After practicing the swordsmanship again, I heard Yang Yuankui praise on the side: "Brother-in-law's swordsmanship is really good-looking!" ”

Li Xiu put away the sword, turned around and saw him holding a book in his right hand, and said with a smile: "Yuan Kui also got up so early to study?" ”

Yang Yuankui is now thirteen years old, according to the algorithm of the ancients' imaginary age. In the modern world, this is only the age of the sixth grade.

Since he came to the capital, he rarely seems to go out to play. All day, they either stayed in the courtyard where their father and son lived, or they studied hard in the study.

This made Li Xiu a little worried, don't make people into nerds.

Yang Yuankui nodded very seriously and said: "Well, Dad, only by studying hard can you make contributions in the future." ”

As the so-called ten-year cold window no one asks, it becomes famous all over the world in one fell swoop. In this era, it is really difficult for men to have a second way out except to study hard.

Li Xiu wiped the sweat from his face and asked, "What are you reading today?" ”

"It's the Analects."

Yang Yuankui replied, looked at Li Xiu and said with some hesitation: "Brother-in-law, I want to"

"What's wrong?" Li Xiuqi said.

"I want to learn swordsmanship from you." Yang Yuankui said.

"That's fine. However, the way of martial arts cannot be achieved overnight. If I teach you swordsmanship and delay your study, your sister will want me. ”

Looking at his thin body, Li Xiu felt that it seemed that it would be good to let him learn some kung fu. Anyway, the master and his old man have never been there, and this swordsmanship can't be passed on to the outside world.

"No, I can practice martial arts without delaying my studies." Yang Yuankui said confidently.

"Nacheng, I'll teach you Zama step first, this is the foundation."

Li Xiu, according to the way Wang Bing taught him, instructed the brother-in-law to set up a horse in the courtyard.

Afterwards, he sat on a wicker chair in the courtyard and sipped the fragrant tea.

Yang Yuxuan saw this scene, walked over and said angrily: "Xianggong, how do you teach him this?" ”

Li Xiu replied with a smile: "Let Yuan Kui learn some kung fu, and it will be used for self-defense in the future." ”

"Not doing business. If my father sees this, I'll have to do it again. Yang Yuxuan complained.

"Not doing your job? Why isn't this a proper job? ”

Li Xiu frowned. Although the imperial examination is the right way, learning martial arts can't be regarded as a bad job, right? Is it true that in addition to reading, everything else is a miracle skill?

The concepts of modern people and ancient times will inevitably collide.

Yang Yuxuan saw that he was slightly angry, but he didn't know how to explain it, so he paused and said, "Oh, my father hopes that he will gain fame in the future." ”

"Hmph"

Li Xiu snorted coldly, and felt that it was necessary to change her pedantic concept: "I have no objection to gaining fame, but if Yuankui can only study for the rest of his life, he will be a powerless person." One day there is an accident, even I can't protect myself and my family, he just takes the top spot, and I can't look down on it! ”

"This"

Yang Yuxuan was surprised when she heard this. She really didn't expect that as a person, Li Xiu would be so disdainful of weak scholars, and she really didn't know what to do for a while.

Thinking about it, I feel aggrieved, Li Xiu has rarely spoken to her seriously.

"Brother-in-law"

Yang Yuankui, who was on the side, saw him reprimanding his sister, and Zamabu's movements also stopped, and he got up to persuade him. Li Xiu scolded with a straight face: "Squat down and take steps, did I let you get up?" Since you have decided to learn kung fu from me, I will be your master. Don't get up without my consent! ”

"Oh"

Yang Yuankui had no choice but to squat down again and tie up his horse.

Li Xiu nodded with satisfaction, turned his head, and saw Yang Yuxuan's aggrieved look, and he was really a little unbearable. However, the majesty of a man still has to be there, and he can't just say two words to her, and immediately coax her.

If the effect is achieved, everything should be done in moderation.

He softened his face and said, "You should think about it yourself, my father-in-law's side, I will go and clarify with him." ”

Today is the day when the goods arrive in Beijing.

Most of that batch of smuggled salt was sold in the Gyeonggi area, and the rest was to be transported into the capital. In order to prevent Wen Tiren from coming to make trouble again, Li Xiu personally went to Chongmen and waited for Sun Ming to transport goods into Beijing.

Today's Chongmen banknote, Xu Jiang arranged for his cronies to guard it. This cronie's name is Guan Shan, a hundred households in Nanzhen, and he followed a banner of Xu Jiang earlier.

Guan Shan had followed Li Xiu to Jiangnan before, but he was not so restrained in front of him. He stepped forward and saluted, and asked, "Your Excellency, come here, but do you have something to order?" ”

"Leave me alone, I'll take a look at it."

Li Xiu waved his hand and sent him away. So he stood aside and waited quietly.

In the area of the capital, the Jinyi Guard is huge, and it is difficult for Wen Tiren to play tricks.

When the goods entered the capital smoothly, Li Xiu went to Nanzhen Fusi, and then went to the courtyard in Dingcheng.

In the capital, Jinyiwei's intelligence network is very large, and many officials' homes are covered with eyeliner. Li Xiu belongs to Nanzhen and can't interfere with this intelligence network. can only go to Xiao Yun for help at a critical time.

After the chess pieces planted in Wen Tiren's house were exposed, Han Lin was also brought out by the way. Li Xiu withdrew him and went to Sihai Tower with Han Lin to help. On weekdays, just let them ask for some news on the surface.

As early as this year's Beijing period, Li Xiu brought another group of people and laid out a second intelligence network. This matter, except for Chen Yi, who is far away in Kaifeng, is currently known only to him.

Han Lin was transferred, and the daily work of reporting the news was handed over to Ding Cheng. happened to go out today, Li Xiu didn't wait for him to find him, and came over directly.

After Ding Cheng finished reporting, he scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "Childe, there is still something to do with my subordinates."

Li Xiu listened quietly, but he didn't stop, and said, "There is something straight." ”

"Hey, hey"

Ding Cheng grinned before he said, "My subordinates are also of age, and they haven't married a daughter-in-law yet." I fell in love with the maid Cui'er beside my wife, and wanted to ask my son to promise her to me. ”

Li Xiu realized this, dare to love because he often went over to report the news, and fell in love with the maid next to Yang Yuxuan?

During this period, the close-fitting maid almost grew up with the master. The sister of a large family generally learns some piano, chess, calligraphy and painting from it. The close-fitting maid is also knowledgeable.

Under normal circumstances, the maid who accompanies the marriage is equivalent to a maid in the room, and in the end they are all accepted.

Although Cui'er's appearance is okay, Li Xiu has no such thoughts. I think Ding Cheng heard about this and dared to make such a request.

This is a good eye.

These people are all the leaders of Hawkeye, and although there is no big problem in terms of loyalty, they are not as good as Li Dong and the others.

The maids in the family are still very young, and even if they are married, they will still do something in the house. It would be a good thing if he could use this as a shackle to let Ding Cheng and others work for themselves with peace of mind.

Li Xiu suddenly felt that it was necessary for him to go to the tooth shop again and buy a few beautiful maids.

After weighing it in his heart, he reached out and patted Ding Cheng's shoulder, and said with a smile: "What should I do, this is easy to do, but it has to be agreed by Cui'er herself, I will ask her what she means." ”

Ding Cheng saw that he agreed, and said happily: "Thank you, son." ”

I had reprimanded my wife in the morning, and now I had to lick my face and ask her for someone.

When I came out of the courtyard, it was already dusk. Li Xiu shook his head with a smile and rushed home.

In the corner in the distance, Huang Kaicheng flashed out and watched him leave quietly. (To be continued.) )
