Chapter 385: Temptation
Hidden in the invisible, hidden in the market.
Hidden, not just holding the tail between the legs, shrinking the head and shrinking the head, obediently hiding in the dark, that is the trail, the most unacceptable.
Concealment is an art. In Liu Yiyi's heart, the highest level of this art is that you are clearly standing in front of the other party, but the other party does not know who you are at all, not only your appearance, body shape, but also your temper, character, advantages, disadvantages, and so on.
Therefore, sometimes hidden, you also need to hide a little arrogant, just like Liu Yiyi just now on Di Zhixun's birthday banquet, borrowing wine and singing wildly, proud of his talents, establishing his current identity, stabilizing his position in the hearts of Di Zhixun's Di Lu clan, as well as those scholars and Confucian scholars sitting here, by the way, you can also deter the Di Mansion people who are usually a little disrespectful to him, so that they can live a better life in Di Mansion in the future for a period of time, Di Liang's attitude towards him just now illustrates this point very well.
In one fell swoop, Liu Yiyi felt that he was simply a genius.
"Miss Nangong, Mr. Ji, Mr. Liu is resting in the room now, it is a little inconvenient for you"
Liu Yiyi was lying on the bed, his head resting on his arms, crossing Erlang's legs, humming a little tune, when he was beautiful in his heart, he vaguely heard the sound of the maid ring outside, as if Nangong Wan'er and Li Jihe had arrived, and now they were circling with the two maid rings guarding the door.
Liu Yiyi chuckled, sure enough, it was a ranger who ran through the rivers and lakes, he was afraid that the trick of pretending to be drunk just now was not able to hide from these two good players on the rivers and lakes, and now he took the time to come over to test it.
"It's okay, we're just afraid that Mr. Liu will have a bad idea. I brought some decanting soup, you don't have to worry about it, just the two of us go in and have a look. {First reading}" Nangong Wan'er said, then took a bowl of steaming soup, took Li Jihe with him, and pushed the door into the wing where Liu Yiyi was. After entering, he closed the door again.
Liu Yiyi was lying on the couch in the inner wing room, and when he heard Nangong Wan'er and Li Jihe coming in, his expression and movements did not change. is still picking his calves, humming the Huangmei tune he is familiar with, leisurely, without pretending to be drunk and being embarrassed on the spot.
"How's that, how's that? Brother Ji, you should believe it now. From beginning to end, this kid was pretending to be drunk.
If you can hide it from others, how can you hide it from me Nangong Wan'er, hum! Nangong Wan'er stretched out her hand and pointed at Liu Yifan, looking like she had caught someone else's pigtails, and said to Li Jihe proudly. At the same time, he hummed very unceremoniously.
"Since you're here, feel free to sit down," Ryuchichi glanced at the two of them. chuckled, sat up cross-legged, and said softly: "If Liu's guess is right, the two of you are here to bid farewell to Liu, right?" ”
"Hehe, Mr. Liu's discerning eyes, the two of us are here, and we do have this meaning," Li Jihe put the crutches on one side, and sat down at the table and chair in the room with Nangong Wan'er, arched his hand slightly at Liu Yiyi, and said softly: "After disturbing Di Mansion for so long, most of Ji's injuries have healed, and now that the New Year is approaching, it is inconvenient to bother more, and it is time to leave." When they were in the front hall just now, Ji and Miss Wan'er had already told Mrs. Di that they would leave in the afternoon, and now they came to say goodbye to Mr. Liu. ”
"Although you are not a good person, and your mouth stinks badly, but your performance in the hall just now can be regarded as a bit arrogant, you can be regarded as a man, otherwise, this girl will not come!" Nangong Wan'er put the decanting soup in her hand on the table and glanced at Liu Yiyi.
"Thank you Miss Nangong for your golden words," Liu Yiyi smiled and arched his hand lightly at Nangong Wan'er, and said: "Actually, Miss Nangong is leaving, and Liu is also very reluctant in her heart, after all, in this Di Mansion, the only person who is willing to spend the usual money to buy Liu's poems is Miss Nangong except for Miss Di." {First Reading}"
"You! I take back what I just said, hum, I'm too lazy to pay attention to you! Thinking of the two pieces of silver that were cheated away by Liu Yiyi, Nangong Wan'er panicked again, and after glaring at Liu Yiyi, she twisted her head and became idle on the side.
"Hehe, Mr. Liu's words just now are a little presumptuous," Li Jihe chuckled, and said softly to Liu Yiyi: "After today's birthday banquet, Mr. Liu's poems, don't say that they are consistent, as long as Mr. Liu is willing to do it, it is two, five, and ten, and I am afraid that there will be people competing for it." ”
Although Li Jihe is not very literate, but his knowledge is not bad, just look at Di Zhixun and those students and old Confucians, the fanatical admiration of the poems made by Liu Yiyi just now, you can know that Liu Yifan's poetry attainments are extraordinary, he is famous for his poetry, I dare not say it in other places, at least in this Fengjie, it will be spread,
Tomorrow, between those flower streets and alleys, teaching workshops and workshops, there will be Liu Zuo's poems sung.
"Brother Jihe has won the award," Liu Yiyi understood Li Jihe's words, and said to Li Jihe, who was rarely upright: "But a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, Liu is a scholar after all, how can he let his poems flow into the land of fireworks for a little money?" ”
"Good! You're still a little ambitious! Nangong Wan'er praised lightly, and couldn't help but look at Liu Yiyi again, not wanting Liu Yifan, who was the most greedy and stingy, to have some backbone.
"Thanks to Miss Wan'er's praise, Liu is flattered," Liu Yiyi said to Nangong Wan'er with a shy face and cheekiness: "How about Miss Wan'er come to patronize Liu again?" For the sake of old customers, buy one get one free, Liu gave Miss Wan'er a 20% discount, 1800 Wen, how about it? ”
"I didn't say what I said just now," Seeing Liu Yifan's full appearance as a vendor, Nangong Wan'er was speechless again.
"So, Mr. Liu wants to enter the imperial examination?" Li Jihe heard the meaning of Liu's words, so he opened his mouth and asked, and at the same time, he was a little lost in his heart, that person would never think of becoming an official.
"That's nature, ten years of hard work, just for a name. If you don't enter the office, you don't become an official, how can you be worthy of Liu's hard work for more than ten years? How can you be worthy of Liu's full stomach? Liu Yiyi glanced at Li Jihe, replied, and then sighed lightly and said: "It's just that time is not waiting, if it weren't for the floods at home this year, and the disasters of my father and mother, Liu Mou will keep filial piety for them for three years, otherwise there will be one of me Liu Yifan among the imperial examination scholars in the coming year." ”
"With Mr. Liu's talent, this is not a difficult thing." Li Jihe nodded in agreement, but his expression was obviously not as enthusiastic as before, and now, he was completely sure in his heart that this Liu Yifan should indeed not be the person he thought in his heart.
"Hehe, thank you!" Liu Yiyi chuckled, looked at Li Jihe and said, "Brother Ji is going back to the master with Miss Nangong on this trip?" ”
"Ji's life was originally saved by Brother Qin, Brother Li and Miss Wan'er, if it weren't for them, Ji would have been dead for a long time, before leaving, Ji should go to thank him, it is estimated that he will stay in their division for a few more days," Li Jihe turned his head and glanced at Nangong Wan'er next to him, and smiled lightly, the three big scars on his face made his smile ugly.
"That's as it should be," Liu Yiyi noticed that Nangong Wan'er's face had been crimson, her head was lowered, and she had a hint of joy, and couldn't help but chuckle and said to Li Jihe: "Then Liu is here to wish Brother Ji a smooth journey and all the best!" ”
"Mr. Chengliu's auspicious words!" Li Jihe raised his hand to return the salute, picked up the single cane next to him, stood up, and said softly to Liu Yiyi: "It's not too early, Ji has to go and pack some things, so I won't bother Mr. Liu anymore, and say goodbye." ”
Nangong Wan'er saw Li Jihe get up, and she was also busy standing up, stepped forward to support Li Jihe, nodded to Liu Yiyi, and then walked out of the door with Li Jihe. But halfway through, Nangong Wan'er suddenly turned around and asked Liu Yiyi a question that she couldn't understand: "I don't know yet, why are you pretending to be drunk in the living room just now?" ”
"Hehe, I'm full, I'm full, why should I stay there?" Liu Yiyi glanced at Nangong Wan'er amusedly, and said softly: "Don't Miss Nangong think that eating with a group of serious literati is a very painful thing?" ”
"Oh, I see!" Liu Yiyi's answer made Nangong Wan'er have a feeling of meeting a confidant.
"He was afraid of trouble and came to hide from Qingjing," Li Jihe looked at Nangong Wan'er with a smile, she was a little stupid and cute now, and she really didn't know how she used to wander the rivers and lakes: "Although I don't understand poetry, just looking at the excited and excited look on Mr. Di's face after they made five poems in a row, I can also guess that if Mr. Liu doesn't pretend to be drunk and dodge, he will be very annoyed in the banquet below." ”
"Liu Yifan is a bastard!"
When she walked to the door, Nangong Wan'er realized that she seemed to have been successfully fooled again, so she turned her head and glared at Liu Yiyi fiercely-
Tears were pouring in, and the tickets that rose overnight gave Lao Liu a feeling of dead wood in spring and iron trees blooming.
Our old willow, a dry old tree, has pulled out a lot of new sprouts at once, thank you brothers for your support
