"What did Brother Zhang say, you came from afar, and you should be a little bit of a landlord, how can you ask for your money?" Shi Kai said, it can be seen that his attitude is very sincere, Zhang You has a better impression, but he does not argue with him, and secretly plans that if he observes this person for a few days, he might as well pull him.

The topic of money came to an end, and it happened that both of them were not sleepy, so they first ordered the New Year's teeth, and then the world and the sea were idle.

Shi Kai is very knowledgeable, whether it is poetry and poetry or historical allusions, all of them are at his fingertips, and he is a well-learned person at a glance. Zhang You is not as good as him in this regard, but he is more knowledgeable and broad-minded, although he listens more and says less, but every time he has something to say, there must be strange words, which also makes Shi Kai's admired five-body body throw to the ground.

The more the two of them chatted, the more speculative they became, and finally when they were tired, Zhang You simply dragged him back to the house, made tea and poured water, and sat down for a long talk.

Li Yan heard the movement and came out to say hello, and when she saw that there was no danger, she went back to the back room to rest.

Shi Kai was a little embarrassed, he didn't dare to take a closer look at Li Yan, and when he returned to the house, he couldn't help rubbing his hands and complaining: "Shunzhi you too, obviously brought your female dependents and brought your brother in, it's really abrupt, it's ...... for your brother."

The two of them sequenced the New Year's teeth, and Shi Kai happened to be a round of Zhang You, and he had already changed his name.

"That's the little brother's aunt, Brother Shi is embarrassed, the little brother and Brother Shi hit it off at first sight, and they admired Brother Shi's knowledge, so they had a sincere relationship, otherwise they wouldn't have brought you in."

Shi Kai said with some joy: "Shun Zhi praised, but you, although you are not very old, you understand it really a little miscellaneous, and it is important to admire it for your brother." ”

"Speaking of which, the younger brother has already asked, I don't know ......"

"You want to ask why my brother fell into the first place, right?" Shi Kai guessed Zhang You's intentions, and sighed lightly: "Time is also lucky, it may be that he has used up all his luck when he was promoted by his brother, and it is the fourth time that he has fallen to Sun Mountain......"

"Four times?" Zhang You was taken aback: "You are only thirty-three years old in the spring exam, so you are not in your twenties?" ”

"What's so strange about that? You're only twenty-one, aren't you also a lifter? ”

Zhang You's face was hot: "Uh, too...... However, Brother Shi was promoted in his twenties, and he was out of the limelight at that time, why didn't he even pass the exam four times? ”

"It is indeed out of the limelight, Jiayue is the county and county, is to fancy the future of the brother, personally come to the door to propose, the clumsy Jing married to the brother, but it is a pity that the brother is not angry, the first spring is in the youth of the proud, vain talk about current affairs, because the words of the Ministry of Shangshu Gao Xinzheng is a little disrespectful, naturally lost. The second time for my brother to have a heart, the article does not seek to shock the world but to seek stability, but the person in power has changed Zhang Jiangling, the first assistant Lord is determined to forge ahead, it is the time to seek talents, of course, I don't look down on the article for my brother. The third time it was really a man-made disaster, I ate wine with everyone before the exam, and I didn't know what I had eaten, and as soon as I entered the examination room, I began to have diarrhea, and I had more than ten times a day......"

"Brother Shi, you are also ill-fated," Seeing Shi Kai's face full of bitterness, Zhang You couldn't help but interrupt him and commented, "What about this time?" It is said that with so many lessons and lessons, your talent is also good, how can you fail again? ”

"This time, this time it's the blame for being a brother again, maybe it's too much pressure, too nervous, and I forgot to avoid it...... I heard that the new branch Huiyuan also forgot to avoid it, but the result was a good life, obviously he had been defeated, but he happened to meet Lord Zhang of Jinyi Wei and Long Live Today to go to the Gongyuan for an unannounced visit, and was picked out by Lord Zhang from the unsuccessful papers, and recommended to His Majesty, His Majesty was shocked by the heavens, and this was personally ordered as Huiyuan by Lord Yu. ”

When he said this, Shi Kai's tone was sour, and Zhang You, who listened to it, smiled secretly, and said in his heart If you know that Lao Tzu is the noble person of Fang Congzhe, I don't know how to feel, and I think, this person is unknown in history, but he is quite talented, just because of bad luck, if he doesn't meet himself, I'm afraid he will be completely buried. In this way, it is not enough for a person to have the ability in this life, and it is not possible to do it without luck.

"Zicheng, what time did you sleep last night? Who is that man? After Zhang You woke up, Li Yan asked the first sentence.

"A fallen man, I couldn't sleep last night and went out to wander, I happened to hear him singing poems next door, so I talked to him, not to mention, he is still a talent, he was sixteen years old and won the show...... By the way, Lao Xu, are they back? Last night was mainly waiting for them to come. ”

"Old Tang came back once in the early morning, so he left four of Lao Xuxin's collections, and took the rest away......"

"Oh? Did you find anything? Zhang You stopped putting on his shoes and looked up at Li Yan.

"When the day was about to dawn, three carrier pigeons flew out of the county Yahou house, flying in three directions, Lao Xu caught one, but it was a disguise, and now he and Lao Tang went to chase the two carrier pigeons in two ways."

Zhang You smiled bitterly: "How can a two-legged one run with too many wings, it's really ......"

"I told them, if you catch up, you will chase, and if you can't catch up, you will follow what I said yesterday, the soldiers are divided into two routes, all the way to Wuchang, all the way to Changde."

Zhang You lowered his head again and put on his shoes, got up and stomped his feet, stretched his waist and said: "Okay, they are visiting, let's not be idle, I have already told Shi Kai last night, let him lead us around, one to see the scenery of Dongting, and the other to come, what if the blind cat meets the dead mouse...... His father-in-law is Hu Chunhua, the county magistrate of Dongting, who has been in office for more than ten years, and Zhang Shunsheng has something to hide, so he can't hide it from him. ”

Shi Kai was enlightened by Zhang You last night, and went home early in the morning, and didn't come to the inn to find Zhang You until almost noon.

Seeing that his face was not good, Zhang You faintly guessed something, and asked with a deliberate smile: "What's the matter, Brother Shi, it can't be that Mrs. Sister-in-law didn't give a good face, right?" ”

"That's not it, Humble Jing is a virtuous person, although he was a little disappointed, but he didn't say much, it was really my eldest brother, I happened to meet, Yin and Yang said a lot of weird things, and my daughter also echoed it, and my brother couldn't stand it and ran out......"

"The ancients said, how can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain? Brother Shi, don't be angry, let's go, it's almost time to eat, let's drink two cups. ”

"Which ancient man said this?" Shi Kai smiled, but his face looked much better.

It happened that Li Yan also came out of the back room, so Zhang You took the lead, and the group left the inn - of course, they were all dressed in civilian clothes.

"There is a "swallow house" in front of you, and the fish is a must, or let's go there to try it? Out of the door, Shi Kai proposed, then smiled a little awkwardly, and added: "Let's talk about it first, it's quite expensive there, and it's shy for my brother......

"I have my own little brother to bear, and Brother Shi can rest assured." Zhang You took over the conversation with a smile, Shi Kai was also free and easy, nodded, led the way first, and walked all the way along the path on the shore of Dongting Lake.
