Chapter Sixty-Eight: Do You Believe It or Not?
Mei Xiaoren had to stop, and if he walked again, it would be tantamount to three hundred taels of silver here. It was easy for the two adults to find out who she really was.
"Lord County Order" Wei Shuying was inexplicable, looked at Mei Xiaoren's back and asked, "Brother Mei, what's wrong with you?"
Mei Xiaoren closed his eyes deeply, and the shout of the scholar was tantamount to "adding insult to injury".
Wei Shuying chased after her and walked in front of her, very incomprehensible, "You don't want to find someone to teach you, why do you still want to go" After he finished speaking, he grabbed Mei Xiaoren's arm, took her back to the door of the main house, and said in a low voice, "This person is not easy to speak, do you know how much tongue I wasted"
Chu Yu was already standing in front of the door, watching Wei Shuying bring the person back.
Neither of them had the word "strange" in their eyes. Wei Shuying looked at them and asked in surprise, "You know each other?"
Mei Xiaoren buried his head and did not answer.
Chu Yu was also silent.
Wei Shuying knew that Chu Yu still had this bit of eyesight, and since he shouted out, he would never recognize the wrong person. But the one he just shouted
"You are the county order," Wei Shuying looked at Mei Xiaoren in surprise.
Mei Xiaoren raised his hand to support his forehead. Knowing in a foreign country is a good thing or a bad thing
Chu Yu said: "Shouldn't you be in Xuanzhou at this time?"
She quietly looked around, the guards had already been sent away by the university soldiers, and there were just three of them. If she doesn't admit it, the scholar and Chu Yu will inevitably get to the bottom of it, so it's better to admit it.
"It's a long story." She sighed, looked up at Chu Yu, and said, "Brother Chu Yu can help me keep this secret?"
"What a secret"
"The secret of my suspension to study here." Mei Xiaoren said again, "The whole academy doesn't know that I was the county magistrate. ”
Chu Yu's doubts are still there: "Why do you want to come to study?"
Mei Xiaoren said casually: "Everything is inferior, only reading is high, while you are young, it is good to read more books." ”
"Guess we believe it or not," Wei Shuying smiled. How could a person who was already an official of the imperial court come here to study under the banner of becoming an official
"Come in and say." Chu Yu went into the house without saying anything.
Mei Xiaoren of course knew that her reason was not enough to convince the public, and continued to explain while entering the house: "In fact, before this, I had been promoted to the general judge of the Xuanzhou Prefecture, but I didn't read much when I was the county commander, and it was not easier to be an errand boy in the state capital than when I was a county commander. ”
"You really think like this," Wei Shuying frowned slightly, walked to the table and sat down, shaking his head and sighing, "It's incomprehensible." ”
Mei Xiaoren was afraid that they would ask, so he asked, "Brother Chu Yu, what about you, why are you here?"
Chu Yu looked at Wei Shuying, "Because Master Wei is here." ”
"You're saying the opposite," Wei Shuying stared at Chu Yu with blank eyes.
Mei Xiaoren smiled and said, "I almost forgot that Brother Chu Yu is on duty in the Wenhua Palace. "It's normal for a scholar to come to the academy with his staff, but she didn't expect it.
"Wenhua Hall on duty" Wei Shuying was confused.
Chu Yu was about to sit down, but when he heard this, he stood up straight and saluted respectfully towards Wei Shuying: "Naturally, it is to serve Lord Wei." ”
Wei Shuying was a little dazed, and couldn't help but look sideways: "You need to be so polite to me"
"Lord Wei, the lower officials have followed Lord Wei for many years, even if Lord Wei does not take the official as a subordinate, but the etiquette cannot be abolished." Chu Yu said without changing his face and heartbeat, and only sat down after speaking.
Wei Shuying only understood now, it turned out that someone was making up a story to conceal his identity, and he had to accompany him to finish singing the play.
Even if the respect is fake, it is difficult to make people's hearts feel good, but it is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. At least when Brother Mei was present, some people didn't dare to put on the boss's shelf anymore.
No matter what reason Brother Mei came here to study, he had to pay back the favors he owed.
Wei Shuying cleared his throat and said solemnly: "Yes, you have always done a good job of the errands assigned by the official, and the official is very pleased." He glanced at Mei Xiaoren and said, "Brother Mei, this student is very fond of this official, but he is too busy with official business to teach in person, so his homework will be handed over to you. ”
"Master Wei doesn't think about it anymore" Chu Yu drank tea with heavy eyes, and his words were slow and slightly cool.
"It's just arranged, you have to give it to you, not perfunctory."
Suddenly having such a teacher, Mei Xiaoren was happy in his heart, and arched his hand: "Then it will be troublesome Brother Chu Yu from now on." ”
"He's not afraid of trouble, and you're not afraid of trouble." Wei Shuying smiled, anyway, he was already fat once, and he was not afraid of gaining another inch, and said: "Also, in the afternoon, the Zhu family will ask the official to meet in the other garden, and you and Brother Mei will go with the official." ”
As soon as Wei Shuying's words fell, a gaze suddenly hit him in the face. He forced himself to composure, shook back with a knife in the eye, and said indifferently in someone's old tone: "You have objections"
Chu Yu retracted his gaze and replied lightly: "No." ”
"Then it's decided. Brother Mei, there are many people in the academy and it is inconvenient to teach privately, so you first move to the back mountain according to Zhou Xun's wishes, and the place in the back mountain is just right. Wei Shuying thought for a while and said, "As for what to do later, let's discuss it in the afternoon." ”
"Yes, thank you Lord Wei and Lord Chu, the student is leaving."
Mei Xiaoren saluted and then left Jingqiu Courtyard.
Wei Shuying got up and took a look at the door, confirmed that Mei Xiaoren had gone away, and then came back, and asked with a smile: "How did you know each other?"
"He is the county magistrate of Qiushui County, and he was also in charge of Yun County."
Wei Shuying suddenly realized: "Oh, so you said that your lawsuit was tried by him"
"Hmm."
He asked again: "Then how is his county order, is he worthy of being an official in Daning?"
Chu Yu nodded.
"There are a few people who can be so sure of you, which means that I haven't looked away, Brother Mei really has some skills." Wei Shuying smiled and said, "But since you are optimistic about others, why don't you transfer him to Beijing?"
"I want to see if he has the ability to go to Beijing by himself."
"That's fine." Wei Shuying nodded in agreement, and sighed with a smile, "Eh, he seems to think that you are a good person, and you are pretending to be a good person in front of others."
Chu Yu raised his eyes, "Do you think we should say this now?"
"What do you say?"
"What do you say?"
Wei Shuying immediately understood that Chu Yu wanted to settle the account with him just now, and frowned and said: "Since you have agreed, you have to teach others well when you go back, and when he is successful in his studies, maybe he can really go to Beijing." ”
"It's not the key, the key is why I agreed" Chu Yu looked at Wei Shuying with a calm face.
Wei Shuying was cold at the back of that look, and hurriedly smiled, "You can't blame me for this, who let me be a good person, this good person has to be a good person countless times." He said that he suddenly had confidence in his heart, and knocked on the table, "Otherwise, you will refuse him, let people have a hot face and a cold butt, Xiao Yu'er, have you done less?"
Chu Yu lowered his eyes and looked at the tea cup in his hand, and a smile appeared on his lips, "Wei Shuying, you remember it for me." ”
