In front of Du Qi's right ear, there is a protrusion the size of a mung bean.

According to the folk saying, the one that grows in front of the ear is the "tethered horse pile", and the lord is rich and noble.

Du Qi's "bolted horse pile" is not obvious, just a slight small bulge, so the front can't be seen, if Mei is not standing in front of the window, looking at Du Qi's side face, he can't find this small difference.

Guiyuan has a "bolted horse pile", Gui Chongyang has a "bolted horse pile", and the father and son are in the same lineage.

Few people know that there is another person in the Gui family who has a "bolted horse pile", that is, Gui Da. It's just that when he was a child, Gui Da was naughty, climbed a tree and fell once, rubbed the small half of his face, and the "bolted horse pile" rubbed off, leaving only a scar.

There is no daughter in the Gui family's room, Gui Changhai and his wife like Mei's niece and future daughter-in-law very much, Mei was often taken to the Gui family's room to live in when he was a child, so Gui Dachang's "bolted horse pile" thing, although Mei has not seen it, but I heard Gui's grandmother talk about it once.

By the time Grandma Gui was sick and dying in her later years, she was already confused, and she often pulled Mei's and nagged about the past of her husband and several sons over and over again.

"It's because I didn't take a good look at the child, the boss obviously has an excellent face, but that time he broke his appearance, broke the 'bolted horse post', and broke his eyebrows. Since then, I have been hanging my heart, until he grows up safely and marries a daughter-in-law, I let go of this hanging heart. The eldest couple has been married for a few years and has no children, I really don't feel good in my heart, I found someone to secretly look at the two of them, saying that the children and grandchildren are fine, and then they are down-to-earth. I didn't expect it to be accurate, it's all fate, it's all fate! In the end, the old lady was already in tears.

Because he said it so many times, Mei remembered it clearly.

Does Duri have a "bolted horse pile"? What is going on with Du Qi's "bolted horse pile"? Was he really born to term?

Mei Shi only felt like a numb heart, looked at Du Qi, and then looked at Gui Chongyang.

The difference between the two is only seven or eight months, but Du Qi is half a head taller than Gui Chongyang, and his complexion is ruddy and ruddy; Gui Chongyang is not only slightly shorter than his peers, but also slightly pale. There doesn't seem to be anything similar between the two of them, but if you really look closely, there is a vague familiarity between the eyebrows and eyes of the two. It's just a fat white steamed bun, a very thin person who is a vegetarian, and there is nothing left of the three points of similarity.

Mei's heart was "thumping", and he didn't dare to look any further, for fear that he would lose his temper, so he hurriedly turned around and left.

Gui Chongyang noticed it, and when he saw Mei's back retreating in panic, he couldn't help but wonder.

*

An hour, fast and fast.

Mei Xiaoba finished writing the notebook, and according to Gui Chongyang's instructions, she memorized the book for half an hour. In the past half an hour, Du Qi has silently written an old work of his time.

The county school teaching said that Du Qixue did not know the current language, and it was not entirely right.

Du Qi can still make a complete text, but it is all familiar words and sentences, and there is nothing of his own. Except for the words "borrowing" and "quoting", the rest is dry.

However, being able to memorize so many examples, and writing his previous articles silently without drafts, and finishing them silently in one go, shows that Du Qi does not have a good pen, but he has a good memory.

If it is really a children's test, the hospital test and the government test will not be mentioned first, and the county test will be a little hot.

Gui Chongyang was puzzled, but he still asked directly: "If you grind for another two years, it's almost the same if you can't take the government test, and the county school side, don't you want to think of a way?" ”

It has been several days since Du Qi came back, but because of Du Mei's marriage, everything else has been covered, and he has never heard of any movement in the Du family.

Du Qi smiled: "What way?" I think the village school is better, and with you, we can do our homework together and play together. ”

"In the end, the village school is just social studies and literacy, and it is better to learn the Five Classics seriously and need famous teachers." Gui Chongyang suggested.

Du Qi stuck out his tongue and said, "Where can a famous teacher look down on me?" My father and mother worked hard to send me to the county school to audit, but what was the use? The master was arrogant and arrogant, even if he was proliferating, he only paid attention to the schoolwork of the twenty students. With outstanding qualifications like Mei Sheng, they are even more regarded as a big baby, and they can't wait to praise me when they see it, how have you ever taken care of me? What I know now is all taught by the gentleman in the private school in the town before. It's just that I was stupid before, and I couldn't memorize the book, and it was only because of my husband's patient professor that I opened it. In the end, there was respect and gratitude on his face.

Gui Chongyang's heart moved when he heard this, and said, "But the school opened by Mr. Yuan? ”

Yuan Fuzi is Mei's second grandfather's classmate, Mei Sheng's maternal grandfather, and Gui Wu's teacher.

"It's Mr. Yuan!" Du Qi nodded hurriedly: "I studied there for four years, and there is no such good gentleman, if you really want to talk about it, it is really no worse than the gentleman of the county school." ”

Although Gui Chongyang had never met this gentleman, he had heard Gui Wu and Zhong Xiaoyi mention it, and he also knew the origin of Mr. Yuan and the Mei family.

Mr. Yuan is Mei Sheng's grandfather, who was a classmate with Mei's second grandfather, and the two families want to be close, because Mei Qingzhu doesn't like to read, Mr. Yuan didn't like it, and finally he will pick Mei Qingzhu's cousin Mei Qingsong.

Yuan later suffered from postpartum disease, and Mei Sheng died when he was half a year old. The Du family also took a fancy to Mei Qingsong, and without waiting for Yuan's burial, they explained Mei Tongsheng and told their daughter Du Erniang to Mei Qingsong as their steproom.

Mr. Yuan annoyed the Mei family because of this and broke off contact with the Mei family. Later, Mei Qingsong died in the "Nine Ding Difficulty", and Du Erniang directly married Mei Qingbai, and the two families continued to be relatives.

If you really want to talk about it, the Yuan family and the Du family should also have a disagreement. However, Mr. Yuan only alienated the Mei family, and did not anger the Du family, and still patiently taught the Du family, and his heart was not broad-minded.

It is a blessing that Gui Wu can have such a teacher.

Du Li Zheng has always come to see Du Qi, the only son of China, but he dares to send him directly to the home of the "enemy" to be enlightened, is he aware of Mr. Yuan's character? Or is there an eyeliner in the town to ensure that Du Qi will not suffer?

Just the shopkeeper of the shop in the town?

The Yuan family is an old household in the town, and the shopkeeper with the identity of a subordinate is afraid that he doesn't have that weight?

It seems that there is a thread that is about to be worn.

Gui Chongyang suppressed the excitement in his heart and said casually: "You went to study in the town at such a young age?" Your father and mother are also willing to do it, eighteen miles away, and it is hard to toss every day. ”

"No day school!" Du Qi shook his head and said, "My family has a house by the dock, and I will rest there when I don't come back." I go home once every five days, and when I don't, my mother goes to the town every other day to take care of me. In the end, there was a bit of shyness.

Other people's twelve-year-old boys are no longer children, only his mother still takes care of him as a milk doll.

Gui Chongyang sighed: "Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, nothing more than that. And what about your father, who will also take care of you every other day? That way, you're in town as well as you're at home. ”

Du Qi shook his head and said, "Don't go, my father is impatient and has a lot of people, so he rarely goes to town." ”

Gui Chongyang said "sure enough" in his heart, but his mouth diverged and said: "Although I am younger than you, I am enlightened two years earlier than you, and I have also read some current literature, if you don't dislike my class for making axes, we will study together in the future!" ”

Du Qi nodded hurriedly and said: "Together, I am willing to go to the village school, just for you and Xiaoba, so naturally I want to be together." ”

The young man's round big steamed bun face is a pair of eyes that have been squeezed into a small circle but are still full of sincerity.

Gui Chongyang was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, paused, nodded with a smile, and said, "That's it!" ”

Mei Xiaoba was listening to the two talking, a little uneasy, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Chongyang, am I too stupid?" The handwriting is ugly, and the endorsement is not good. ”

Gui Chongyang pointed at Du Qi and said, "Are you comparing yourself with Du Qi?" I really want to run just by standing! Du Qi is enlightened at the age of seven, it has been five years since now, you have only been in school for half a month, if you surpass Du Qi, then he will not be ashamed! ”

Du Qi also said: "Why are you in a hurry? Learning this thing, learning a little is a little, and you can't fake it. Chongyang was two years earlier than my enlightenment, and he was able to guide me to Shiwen. After a few years, you will naturally surpass me! ”

Mei Xiaoba scratched the back of her head and said with a smile: "I either want to compare with Brother Du Qi, or I'm worried that I'm too stupid and let Brother Chongyang worry about it." ”

Gui Chongyang thought about it seriously and said, "The victory lies in diligence, and it is considered to be in the middle." ”

Du Qi himself is lazy, but he admires the diligent person, gave Mei Xiaoba a thumbs up, and said: "Study hard, with this little master of Chongyang watching, it will not be wrong." ”

Mei had regained her composure, prepared lunch, and came over to beckon a few teenagers to go to lunch.

The pie is filled with two kinds of fillings, one is leek egg with meat oil, the other is leek vermicelli with vegetable oil, and there is a pot of spinach vermicelli soup.

The former is for everyone to eat, and the latter is eaten by Mei and Gui Chongyang.

Before Gui Chongyang came back, Mei believed in Buddhism under the influence of Grandma Gui, and had the habit of eating a vegetarian on the fifteenth day of the first year of the new year; When Gui Chongyang came back, Gui Wu "returned to the sect", and the two uncles and nephews began to investigate the incident thirteen years ago.

Mei Duo didn't come out to eat, and after Mei arranged for the three teenagers to eat and drink, he went to the West House with a plate of pies.

Mei Duo was indignant and whispered, "What does Chongyang think?" Do you really want to be friends with Du Qi? Just now, when I passed by the West Chamber, he gave Du Qi an article! That seriousness, it is not selfish at all! As for whether it has reached this point, it cannot be said that it is the son of an enemy! ”

"Son of the enemy"?

Mei's hand holding the pie shook, and his face sank.
