Chapter 54: Borrowing Books
"Childe, why did you fall asleep with the window open?"
"It's too bad to take care of yourself, the injuries on this body are still serious, and it's not good if you get infected with the wind cold."
Meng Wu chattered, closed the window first, and then took a small blanket for Meng Shan to cover.
"Meng Wu?" Meng Shan asked in a daze.
Why did Meng Wu come back?
Didn't he go to the steward and receive the punishment?
The housekeeper is so strict, there are no two hours Meng Wu can't come back.
Also, isn't he there trying to save people?
"I'll be back a long time ago."
Meng Wuyi limped to the table and poured a cup of tea.
Seeing that Meng Shan still didn't look like he was awake, Meng Wu shook his head helplessly.
"It's already night, and I was supposed to rest in my room, but I thought I'd better come and see Childe.
I didn't expect those who were not dedicated to let their son fall asleep with the wind blowing, they really deserved to fight. ”
"It's night, I thought I slept for an hour?"
Meng Shan rubbed his stunned head, feeling that there was no strength in his body.
Did he sleep too long?
Meng Wu returned to Meng Shan with tea and said, "Childe, let's drink a cup of tea first and wake up." ”
Meng Shan nodded, "Hmm." ”
After drinking the tea and the person was a little sober, Meng Shan raised his head and asked, "How is your injury?" ”
was punished by the housekeeper, and the injury should not be light.
"It's okay, I've been lying down for an afternoon and I'm almost fine after taking the medicine."
One of the advantages of being an errand in Mengfu is that whether you are sick or injured, there is a suitable medicine for injuries that can be used, and it is good and fast.
"It's okay."
Meng Shan rubbed his forehead, now he doesn't have to worry about apprenticeship, but it seems that there is a more troublesome matter.
Save.
"By the way, Meng Wu, I remember if there are a lot of anecdotal magazines in my eldest brother's study."
"There should be, the eldest prince loves to read books the most, all kinds of medical books and wild histories, and there are many gonzos."
"Then you can borrow some for me."
"Borrowing books?" Meng Wu was very puzzled by his son-in-law's bewildering behavior.
If you want to talk about Meng Shan, you really don't like to study, let alone reading books by yourself in private, every time Mr. gives a lecture, he hides faster than anyone else.
"Don't you have a headache when you see a book, and besides, now that you can't see, why do you borrow a book?"
Meng Wu muttered, and was unwilling to go to the eldest prince's courtyard to borrow books.
"Why are there so many things for you to borrow a book, you just have to borrow it."
"I'm not going."
Meng Wu turned his back to him, but he didn't want to go.
"Hey, you still take Joe.
Are you going or not? ”
Meng Shan lost his temper for a while, and pretended to glare at Meng Wu fiercely.
Who knew that Meng Wu was also a stubborn temper, so he didn't look at Meng Shan to be angry or not.
Hmph, anyway, even if Childe gets angry for a while, it would be fine.
"Hey, I really can't cure you, right, isn't it just that I'm limping now and don't want Xiao Tao to see it?
Believe it or not, I'll let her call you right now? ”
"Childe?"
As soon as he heard that Meng Shan was going to call Xiao Tao over, Meng Wu was immediately unhappy.
He looks so embarrassed, how can he let Xiao Tao see it.
Because of what happened last time, Xiao Tao has ignored him for several days, and he can't make a fool of himself in front of her anymore.
"I don't want her to come, why don't you go and borrow books."
"But ......"
"What's the matter, how do you have such a long brain.
The eldest sister-in-law never approached her brother's study, how could you meet Xiao Tao when you went to the study. ”
It's okay to know that you're worried.
"It's impossible, I go to the eldest prince's courtyard, and the chance of meeting Xiao Tao is still very high."
"Don't worry, you can go in through the side door and go directly to the study to find me a few books.
I'll just tell my brother in person when I go back, and make sure you can't see Xiao Tao. ”
Meng Wu's eyes rolled, thinking that what Gongzi said seemed to be right, so he nodded and agreed.
"Then I'll go now, the eldest prince should be in the pharmacy at the moment, and the others are probably resting, I'll take advantage of no one to find a few copies for the son, and then come back quickly."
"This method is good, then I'll wait for you to go and come back quickly."
"Okay, Childe, you wait."
In order not to run into Xiao Tao, Meng Wu sneaked into Meng Zihui's courtyard like a thief.
Meng Zihui's study, Meng Wu had followed Meng Shan a few times before, and he was familiar with it.
Because he didn't dare to light the lamp, and he couldn't see clearly in the dark, Meng Wu only remembered that Gongzi said that he wanted to find some strange things, and it should be that the older the book, the more valuable it is.
Meng Wu didn't understand these either, so he specially picked out the yellowed, crumpled ancient books on the bookshelf, because he was in a hurry and accidentally touched the stack of books on the bookshelf next to him.
"Whoa!" With a bang, the books on it fell out of a pile.
Meng Wusheng was afraid that someone would hear the movement and come in and see him, so he hurriedly packed up a few books, and hurriedly arranged the bookshelves neatly, so he hurriedly ran away.
When Meng Wu came back, Meng Shan was still surprised, "Why did you come back so soon?" ”
Said that the legs and feet were not good, and they ran back so quickly.
Meng Wu panted and spread the books he had in his arms on the table, and then picked up the herbal tea on the table and drank two large cups.
"Let me take my time."
It's too exciting, I almost met Meng Gang next to the eldest prince just now, fortunately, Meng Gang seems to have something to do and left in a hurry, otherwise he will be caught.
"Well, how's it going, borrowed a few books?"
"Na, it's a lot, I guess you won't be able to finish it for two months."
After resting, Meng Wu stacked the books on the table and placed them on the small coffee table next to Meng Shan sitting.
Meng Shan touched the stack of tall ancient books and nodded appreciatively, "Yes, I actually found so many books." ”
"That's right, I've moved all the old-looking books in the eldest son's study."
Meng Shan nodded and said with a smile: "It is worthy of praise." ”
Then he looked at Meng Wu meaningfully, and casually took out an ancient book from the book under his hand and handed it to Meng Wu, "Take it." ”
Meng Wu didn't understand what he was doing, so he reached out and took the yellowed "Kyushu Chronicles", flipped through it casually, and asked suspiciously: "Childe, what are you giving me this, don't you want this one?" ”
"What do you say I'm doing for you, I can't see with my eyes, how do you know what it's talking about if you don't read it to me?"
"I, I'll read it to you?"
Meng Wu pointed at himself in surprise and asked in disbelief.
"Who else could you have?"
"I ...... I only know a few words, no, no, son, you better find someone else to read it to you. ”
He couldn't do this kind of task of testing his knowledge.
"If you don't look for anyone, everyone else is very busy, and this Meng Mansion is estimated to be just you and me.
If you don't read it to me, who will read it to me? ”
Meng Shan is right, in the entire Meng Mansion, it is estimated that there will be no one more idle than Meng Shan and Meng Wu.
