Chapter VI. Scholar Xiao Yi.

After the grandfather and grandson talked for a while, the Liu family was afraid of disturbing Xiao Mo's rest, so it didn't take long for him to leave, and his own subordinates came up to help. 1 novel.1.0 text version first release

In fact, Liu's room was in the same small courtyard as Xiao Mo's room, so that she could take care of Xiao Mo nearby, saying that she was leaving, but in fact she was just moving to the next room.

Before leaving, Liu glared fiercely at the child who had brought water to Xiao Mo in the corner, and the frightened child didn't dare to look up, and told him, "You have to take care of Brother Mo, if you let him get out of bed without wearing a coat again, what will happen to you", and finally left.

At the same time, Xiao Mo and the child were both relieved.

At this time, the light outside the house had dimmed.

According to the memory of this body, Xiao Mo knew that this child's name was Xiao Yi, and he was Xiao Mo's scholar. At the same time, he is also the subordinate who takes care of Xiao Mo's daily life.

This made Xiao Mo, who was expecting to take care of himself a little bit, a little disappointed.

In fact, this is because of the ancestral training of the Xiao family.

An old ancestor of the Xiao family a hundred years ago believed that a man should have the appearance of a man, although he did not need to be powerful and masculine, but he must not be rouge, so the men of the Xiao family must not grow up with a group of servants from an early age, so whether it is Xiao Mo's grandfather Xiao Shenxing, or the strange father Xiao Jiaju, or the current Xiao Mo, they are all taken care of by male subordinates.

What's more, Xiao Mo has been taken care of by the Liu family more often over the years, and Xiao Yi's storage zài is just serving tea and water, replacing Xiao Mo to do a body job.

"Young Master, do you want to drink water?"

After the room was silent for a moment, Xiao Yi stepped forward and asked softly.

At a young age, reality has already made him conscious of being a subordinate.

In this regard, Xiao Mo nodded, and let Xiao Yi bring the tea to his mouth, his expression was respectful to this child who was not much different from himself.

At Xiao Mo's age, talking about topics and concepts such as equality for all can only cause trouble, at the beginning of the crossing, the panic was still there, and Xiao Mo had no idea of talking to Xiao Yi, after all, although Xiao Yi looked stable, he was only an eight or nine-year-old boy, and he didn't know much more things than the original Xiao Mo, and there was no need to talk about it, so next, Xiao Mo didn't say a word, and let Xiao Yi serve lightly.

In the next half an hour, when Liu came over twice and sent food three times, Xiao Mo simply pretended to be asleep, closed his eyes, and silently thought about his thoughts.

It has been crossed, this is a definite thing, and the heart that has not been able to calm down for a long time has also quieted down with the room, or it has no worries, and the heart has been restored to peace. In just a few hours, Xiao Mo seemed to have accepted the fact of crossing.

And now the question is, what to do after the crossing?

According to the memory of this body, as well as the words of Liu, Xiao Shenyan and others before, Xiao Mo probably understood the shape of the Xiao family at this moment.

The Xiao family should belong to this big family in Changzhi City, the landlord class, but in comparison, it is weak in this class, and the influence of officialdom is weak.

If there is no officialdom power, but the family has a lot of wealth, it can only be regarded by the officialdom as a fat sheep that can be slaughtered at any time, which is the truth of ancient and modern times, and it is also the biggest concern of the Xiao family now.

In Xiao Mo's view, the sixty pours of fertile land back then, although it was too defensive to force each other, but it can't be exchanged in any case, if it is changed, those who are officials can see the weakness of the Xiao family and can be bullied, and with the first time, there will naturally be a second and third time, until the Xiao family is hollowed out by them who smell blood, and it has declined since then.

It's just that, on the other hand, how could the Xiao family, which doesn't have much officialdom power, dare to reject Taishou's opinion at the beginning?

It can be said that the Xiao family seems to be rich and prosperous at this time, but in fact, it has entered a dead end.

And Xiao Mo, it is precisely because of this that he was pinned on by Liu, Xiao Shenyan and others, from a landlord young master who will live a worry-free and innocent life in the future, to a scholar who needs to study hard to study poetry and books to gain fame, and Xiao Shenyan personally taught Xiao Mo for this reason, hoping that the Xiao family can reverse this situation in the future.

"Originally, I was very hopeful that I would be a carefree gentleman, but I didn't expect that this seemingly carefree young master Dumiao would be burdened with such a heavy burden on his shoulders?"

Xiao Mo lay on the bed, sighing secretly and muttering to himself.

There was already too much pressure and burden in the previous life, and after reincarnation, to be honest, Xiao Mo was tired of this kind of life, and just wanted to live this life carefree and innocently, or it could be said that he had no ambition, but Anzhi This kind of life should be the true meaning of life?

However, like the previous life, Xiao Mo has no way to reverse this fate at the moment, after all, as the only seedling of the Xiao family, Xiao Mo has already established a relationship with the Xiao family to share honor and disgrace.

"Young master, what's wrong with you, are you feeling unwell again?"

Hearing Xiao Mo's sigh, Xiao Yi, who was lying on the table and pretending to sleep, walked lightly to the side of the bed and asked softly.

Xiao Mo shook his head and replied, "It's okay, don't be nervous, you continue to sleep." ”

Xiao Yi looked at Xiao Mo worriedly for a moment, and he didn't know whether he was worried about Xiao Mo's body, or worried that he would be scolded by Liu, nodded after a while, turned back to the table, and continued to lie on his stomach and pretend to sleep, I don't know if it was because he didn't even have a place to sleep in Xiao's house, or because Xiao Mo was sick.

After a long time, seeing Xiao Yi's shoulders rising and falling slightly, as if he had fallen asleep, Xiao Mo also closed his eyes and continued to think silently about his thoughts.

"In a few days, after my body improves, I will follow that Xiao Shenyan to study, the original Xiao Mo seems to have worked very little, basically I get the memory, there is no knowledge of poetry and books, fortunately, I still know some ancient characters, in the future for a period of time, the first thing is to find out what era I am in now, as long as I understand the era and environment I am in, the predicament of the Xiao family, there is always a way. Chu Dynasty...... I remember that there was only a Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period, but looking at the outfit in my room, it was obviously not the style and technique that the Spring and Autumn Period should have......"

Thinking about it, Xiao Mo felt a little stuffy in his chest, reached out and rubbed his chest a few times, and finally calmed down.

"And this body, it's really bad, if this situation continues, maybe one or two colds can make me die young......"

Just when Xiao Mo was thinking about his heart and couldn't fall asleep for a long time, suddenly there was a slight sound of seat movement in the room, but it was Xiao Yi, a scholar who should have been asleep for a long time, who suddenly stood up quietly at some point, and looked at Xiao Mo nervously for a moment, as if to determine whether Xiao Mo had fallen asleep, and after a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Noticing Xiao Yi's behavior, Xiao Mo was puzzled, but he didn't make any movement, so he simply responded to the changes with no change, pretending to be asleep, and at the same time silently observing Xiao Yi's actions behind.

I saw Xiao Yi take out a pocket out of nowhere, and quietly took some of the various pastries and foods on the table that had been given by the Liu family and put them into his pocket, but he didn't dare to take more, and then tiptoed towards the outside of the room.

However, just as Xiao Yi was about to push the door out, a light suddenly appeared behind him.

Xiao Yi's body shook, and with a look of fear on his face, he slowly turned around.

I saw that Xiao Mo had gotten up from the bed at some point, came to the table, lit the candle on the table, and sat there quietly watching him.

Originally, Xiao Yi didn't want to be nosy at the beginning of the crossing, but seeing that Xiao Yi's actions didn't seem malicious, and Xiao Yi's familiar sadness also aroused Xiao Mo's curiosity, and when he had nothing to do, Xiao Mo decided to ask.

"Xiao Yi, what are you doing?"

Xiao Mo stared at the pocket that Xiao Yi was carrying in his hand and asked slowly.

Hearing Xiao Mo's inquiry, the fear on Xiao Yi's face became more and more obvious, and after a while, he knelt heavily on the ground with a "snap".

"Young master, today is the death day of my parents, I didn't steal anything, I just want to take some food to my parents' grave to worship, please, young master, don't tell the master mother about this......"

Xiao Yi said in a trembling voice, because he was afraid of waking up the Liu family and the others in the room next to him, so his voice was extremely low, and his trembling became more and more powerful.

Although it has traveled hundreds of years ago, Xiao Mo was born in modern times after all, although the so-called "equality of all" is just an empty phrase in modern times, he still feels uncomfortable with the behavior of kneeling, especially such a child who is only eight or nine years old kneels in front of him.

Hurriedly helped Xiao Yi up and wanted to pull him to the table and sit down, but Xiao Yi refused to live or die, but such a toss made Xiao Mo feel a little tired, so he let Xiao Yi stand in front of him, sat down again, and then asked slowly: "Don't worry, it's just some pastries, I'm just telling my grandmother, what is going on, you say slowly." ”

It turned out that Xiao Yi was not surnamed Xiao, he was originally the child of a tenant under the Xiao family, but because of an illness, Xiao Yi's parents were killed, leaving only a child without the slightest means of livelihood.

The Liu family saw that Xiao Yi's ancestors had been tenants of the Xiao family for many generations, and they just happened to find a personal subordinate for Xiao Mo, so they accepted Xiao Yi, but Xiao Yi was a child, and he couldn't do rough work, except for serving tea and water to Xiao Mo, it had no effect, so although the Xiao family managed Xiao Yi's eating and drinking, they never had a salary.

In a blink of an eye, three years have passed, Xiao Yi is already a nine-year-old boy, although he has a worry-free life, but under the discipline of the Xiao family, he rarely has the opportunity to leave the Xiao family's mansion again, and he has never had the opportunity to pay respects at his parents' graves in the past three years. And there is not the slightest money left in his hand, and even if he wants to worship, there is no sacrifice.

Although Xiao Yi is still young, he is a very filial person, and the idea of worship has never faded out of his mind, and these days, because of Xiao Mo, the people of Xiao Mansion are panicked, and it is undoubtedly much easier to leave secretly, and these pastries on the table that Xiao Mo does not eat at all also solve the embarrassment of Xiao Yi having no sacrifice in his hands.

In the end, after seeing that Xiao Mo seemed to be asleep, Xiao Yi couldn't resist the temptation anymore, secretly took some pastries, and prepared to leave the Xiao family's compound at night to worship in front of his parents' graves, and then sneak back before dawn.

But he didn't expect that this qiē was actually revealed by Xiao Mo.

Listening to Xiao Yi's narration silently, a sarcastic smile hung on the corner of Xiao Mo's mouth, and he became more and more panicked when he looked at Xiao Yi.

In Xiao Yi's memory, this young master grew up with the Liu family since he was a child, and was greatly influenced by the Liu family, although he was well-behaved in front of the elders in the clan, but he treated his subordinates as harshly as the Liu family, and he was afraid that he would be in a big disaster this time.

But Xiao Yi didn't know that Xiao Mo's sarcastic smile was not for him, but for himself.

When others are busy with three meals a day, and they are embarrassed because they want to worship their parents but can't take out the sacrifices, they are born in a rich family, but they are thinking about how to escape their responsibilities.

"Take more of these pastries, and if my grandmother asks, I'll say I'll eat them all, and she'll just be happy and won't blame her." You've got too little. ”

Just after Xiao Yi finished speaking, when he was frightened and didn't dare to look directly at Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo's soft voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

Xiao Yi looked up at Xiao Mo incredulously, but saw that Xiao Mo's eyes were calm, and he was quietly staring at him.

After a while, Xiao Yi finally reacted, and was about to kneel down to thank him as soon as his knees bent, but Xiao Mo reached out to support him.

"It's not early, I don't have time to thank you here, go early and come back early."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

By the window, looking at Xiao Yi's figure hurriedly blending into the night, after crossing, the corners of Xiao Mo's mouth finally put a smile on his mouth.

Xiao Yi is very similar to Xiao Mo in his previous life, they are both filial people, from this point of view, Xiao Mo has no idea of embarrassing him at all.

What's more, generally speaking, a person of filial piety is also a person who is grateful for the picture, although it is only a trivial thing for Xiao Mo, it is enough for Xiao Yi to remember for a lifetime, and from then on, Xiao Mo will have one more loyal scholar and confidant by his side.

Sleepless nights. There was no word all night.

When the sky was bright, Xiao Yi hurried back, although he hadn't slept all night, but after tasting his long-cherished wish for three years, he seemed to be in good spirits, but his expression was faintly sad, and he still seemed to miss his deceased parents.

Compared with the night ago, Xiao Yi's expression towards Xiao Mo at this time is different, if Xiao Yi's attitude towards Xiao Mo before was just the duty and restraint of the subordinate to the master, Xiao Yi at this moment is grateful and close to Xiao Mo.

And this kind of transformation is exactly what Xiao Mo needs.

However, Xiao Mo has no intention of becoming friends with Xiao Yi, Xiao Mo, who has been in the society for several years in his previous life, has already understood that a young master who has no worries about food and clothing, and a subordinate who serves the young master all day long for three meals, the gap and relationship between each other are destined to have no such thing as friendship between the two, even if Xiao Mo is willing to do this, Xiao Yi will not.

Just when Xiao Yi was carefully waiting for Xiao Mo to get up, Liu had already packed up and hurried over, complaining for a moment that Xiao Mo should not get up so early, so he carefully picked up Xiao Mo's breakfast, that kind of favor was different from the strictness on weekdays.

Then, under Liu's care, when the day was already bright, a servant of the Xiao Mansion came with a doctor, and after a long all-round examination of Xiao Mo, he came to the conclusion that Xiao Mo's body was no longer abnormal except that it was still a little weak, and Liu's nervous heart was finally relaxed.

In the next few days, under Liu's meticulous and almost excessive care, Xiao Moyi came to reach out for food and open his mouth, and almost spent it in bed, because he had no chance to exercise at all, he only felt that his body was getting weaker and weaker. But although Xiao Mo wanted to exercise his weak body, the stubborn Liu never allowed it.

However, under the condition of being raised all the time, although his body was still weak, Xiao Mo's face was finally a little more bloody.

About half a month later, Xiao Mo has gradually become familiar with the life after the crossing, and at the same time, although Xiao Mo still doesn't know what era he lives in and what kind of environment he is in, at least the environment of the Xiao family has been familiar with Xiao Mo, at least the group of relatives or something, they have been familiar with Xiao Mo.

Especially the Liu family, in addition to sleeping and dealing with the trivial affairs of the Xiao family every day, he spends most of his time taking care of Xiao Mo, and he is verbose and asks Xiao Mo to pay attention to this and that, and he does not have the appearance of the Xiao family's controller at all, so that when Xiao Mo is warm, he also feels very awkward.

At the same time, after nothing else, Xiao Mo's desire to understand this era became stronger and stronger.

And at this moment, Xiao Shenyan came with a word, and it was almost time to go to him to continue reading and practicing calligraphy.
