Chapter Seventy-One: Those Things Before the New Year

After Li Tai left, the weather became colder and colder. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoThe days of snow are gradually increasing, and the sky is always gloomy, and there are only a handful of sunny days.

The old generals in Chang'an City are getting worse and worse in their physical problems, Bai Qi and Sun Simiao have been in Chang'an for almost a while to see Cheng Yanjin and them, and the acupuncture and massage health care training courses at home are in full swing, and many noble families in Chang'an have sent people to participate in the training.

"Alas, since I met you, Poor Dao now feels that his Dao heart is becoming more and more unstable!" Sun Simiao asked his Taoist boy to take over the tuition fee for the training class handed by Bai Qi, and his old face turned red.

"The Taoist chief is not right. You must know that this money is justified, and its use is also used to buy medicinal materials and conduct medical experiments, which is worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, but on the contrary, it is to accumulate great merit for the Tao. White said respectfully.

Sun Simiao shook his head with a smile, did not speak, picked up the medical book on the wall and looked at it seriously.

Sun Simiao, such a good old man, suddenly met a maverick like white chess, and felt a great shock, and he needed more time to think calmly. Seeing that Sun Simiao was thinking about the problem, White also got up and retired.

Daotong sent the white chess pieces out of the door, and the two saluted each other, and the Taoist boy slammed the door shut, leaving the white chess pieces standing alone in the vast snowflakes.

The temple is dilapidated, the trees on both sides are bare, and the branches are full of snowflakes. Standing in front of the lonely Taoist temple that looked at the mountain, Bai Qi bowed deeply and walked down the mountain in the thick snow.

As soon as he returned to the door, the housekeeper Uncle Wang hurriedly greeted him, and while helping to take off the snowflake-covered coat on Bai Qi's body, he said anxiously: "Master Hou, General Cheng is waiting for you in the study!" ā€

Hearing this, Bai Qi hurriedly walked to the study, only to see Jin Zheng and the old ancestor whispering something in the study, and the two laughed while talking.

Bai Qi stepped forward and saluted: "Old ancestor, Uncle Cheng." ā€

When the old ancestor saw that Bai Qi was back, he said goodbye to Cheng Yanjin with a smile, and left the study with the help of his subordinates on crutches.

"Uncle Cheng is looking for the kid for something?" Bai Qi saw Cheng Yanjin smiling and looking at the books on his bookshelf, occasionally taking a few out to look through, so he asked.

"Just came back from Daochang Sun?"

"Yes, Sun Daochang seems to have the intention of leaving Chang'an, and the kid wants to keep him." Bai Qi said with some distress: "What the kid is most afraid of is a real master like Sun Daochang, who is almost desireless and wantless, and is like a fairy among people!" ā€

Cheng Yanjin saw for the first time that someone could stump the white chess, and he couldn't help laughing: "Okay, finally someone stumped you kid!" During this period of time, thanks to you and Daochang Sun, we old bones, otherwise we would have been injured and sick like in previous years, and we would have to spend another difficult winter! He said in an admiring tone: "Your Majesty has asked Sun Daochang to be an official in the court several times, but he has refused. He is the most indifferent person to fame and fortune that the old man has ever seen, and he is also one of the few people who can be admired by the old man. So boy, put away your desire to use something outside your body to impress Sun Daochang's heart! ā€

White shuddered. Yes, over the past few days, I have been smooth sailing, relying on my own little cleverness, with the help of others to tide over one crisis after another. Many times I think about things and take the word interest too seriously, and when I meet a person like Sun Simiao, I immediately expose my fragile original form and fail.

Bai Qi thought about it for a long time, and it was not until the lights in the house were on that he woke up like in a dream, sweating all over his back.

Cheng Yanjin sat on the sofa with "Elementary Arithmetic" and watched, and when he saw Bai Qi waking up, he asked with a smile: "Have you figured it out?" ā€

Bai Qi shook himself to the ground, raised his head and said, "Thank you Uncle for the reminder, otherwise Fengqu will really go further and further down an evil road!" ā€

Cheng Yanjin stood up, patted Bai Qi's shoulder, and said earnestly: "You kid is full of spirituality, but you are often easy to go off the rails, and it is easy to offend people!" Now, we old guys can still remind you and wipe your ass behind your back, but what about once we're gone? ā€

Cheng Yanjin pushed open the window, let the north wind outside pour in, watched the subordinates outside busy lighting the lights in the house, turned around and said to Bai Qi: "Your Majesty is generous and benevolent, and values the old feelings, so as long as our old guys don't make mistakes in principle, when we get mixed up with the Guogong in the future, we will only have to eat at home and wait for death." But white boy, we don't worry about our own children, their shortcomings are either more than brave, or too weak, this kind of character is nothing in ordinary people, but for them, they will lose their lives at any time. Fortunately, you appeared, you are more inclined to the door, you are cunning enough, and the most important thing is that you value love and righteousness, so our group of old guys hope that you can be optimistic about them after we leave, and there is no need to pay homage to the prime minister, as long as you are safe and sound, and continue the families. ā€

Seeing that Bai Qi wanted to speak with red eyes, Cheng Yanjin waved his hand and continued: "Those old guys chose me to tell you these words, if you think that our uncles are not bad to you, just keep it in your heart." ā€

Bai Qi's eyes were red, this feeling of being cared for and trusted made him suddenly find more sense of belonging in Datang, he "plopped" and knelt on the ground, silently kowtowed to Cheng Yanjin three times, and then stood up and grinned at Cheng Yanjin.

Cheng Yanjin closed the window with a smile and patted Bai Qi's shoulder: "Don't do things in the future, don't go to the end, and don't see people as cold, people, always have feelings!" ā€

Bai Qi thought about it sideways, a bright light flashed in his mind, and then said happily: "Uncle, the kid knows what to do!" ā€

Cheng Yanjin stayed in the Hou Mansion to eat, drank a jar of wine on the table with a red face, chatted with the ancestor with high interest, and forced Bai Qi to give him the remaining half of the wine in the kiln before leaving.

Standing under the huge archway, Bai watched Cheng Yanjin's carriage slowly disappear into the snowflakes in the sky, and made a long gesture.

"Master Hou, it's getting dark this day, it's time to go back!" The butler came from behind, holding an umbrella to separate the snowflakes from the white pieces.

Bai Qi turned around and found that the housekeeper in his fifties had much grayer hair, and stretched out his hand to take the umbrella: "Uncle Wang, does your boss have a partner?" Would you like to introduce a few? ā€

Uncle Wang felt that today's little marquis was a little special, and he couldn't say what he felt, as if he had something more than before, and replied: "That kid is honest, how can a woman like it!" ā€

"It's okay, tell me what conditions you want, I'll help you choose, there are a lot of unmarried girls in our house, let's think about it together!" Bai Qi and the housekeeper Uncle Wang walked all the way back and said all the way.

Speaking of his son, the housekeeper Uncle Wang was full of words, and when he saw the little marquis asking, he said it with some hatred.

"Yo, it turns out that your eldest is still shy, how do you look at the green flowers at home?"

"This girl is too squeamish, no, no!"

"How's Xiang?"

"Good personality, big enough butt, just eat a little too much!"
