Chapter 203: Tailwind

Ah Yu was coquettish and tricky beside Mrs. Wen, and begged for a long time, but she couldn't make Mrs. Wen relax and tell the identity of the person behind the scenes, so she only got a hint that was not very obvious.

Third Lady Wen said to Ah Yu: "What they want to murder is the people of our third room, but now at this time, your father is busy with the affairs of the official office all day long, and there is not much time to rest, and most of my time is spent in the White Horse Academy, and the person who is calculating behind the back will not run, so naturally I will wait until I and your father have free time, and then worry about them." ”

She can say this only because the calculations of the people behind the scenes have not come true.

If she was really calculated, she would definitely not be as relaxed as Fang Guoguo and those people now.

Ah Yu couldn't think of so much for a while.

She only knew that her father's temper was too good, and others had already bullied them, but they could still push things back with laughter. In the past, I had only heard them say that she was too easily deceived, but now it seems that this coaxing temper is clearly in the same vein.

However, because of the extra memories, Ah Yu is no longer as easy to coax as before, although her image on the outside has not changed.

Summer is approaching, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter every day.

Xie Huai'an also hadn't met Ah Yu for a long time.

This is also normal.

Although he and Ah Yu are both studying at White Horse Academy, the school where they are located is one east and one west, and if they don't deliberately find a chance to meet on weekdays, they won't have the opportunity to meet at all. And Xie Huai'an spent most of his attention on reading during this time, he has no talent in this area, but there is always a difference between reading a few more books and not reading a single book.

At least when he appeared in front of Ah Yu again, Ah Yu was stunned.

The young man has not met for a few months, and when he met again, he had grown up a lot, and he had a reading temperament that he had not seen before, so that Ah Yu almost didn't recognize the other party.

She stood up and came to Xie Huai'an's side, and couldn't help but raise her hand to compare the height of the two, and was a little stunned.

"What have you eaten lately, how do I feel like you've grown a lot taller......" Ah Yu waited for Xie Huai'an's answer expectantly.

About because she was born prematurely, she was born thinner than girls of the same age, obviously her parents and brothers are taller than others, only she is short, plus a baby face, she looks like a child, which makes her always a little unhappy.

She raised her hand and patted Xie Huai'an on the shoulder: "Why don't you wait for you to go back, write down your recent dining habits, and then let someone send them to my house, I can also eat according to your habits, maybe after eating for two or three months, I can really grow a lot taller like you!" ”

Xie Huai'an thought back to his recent food, and then shook his head at Ah Yu.

"The food I eat now is the same as before, and it should have nothing to do with eating. But I heard my mother say that I am probably old at this age, and I will naturally smoke it, and you are still young now, and in two years, maybe you will be like me, and suddenly you will grow taller......"

Ah Yu thought back to Wen Rugu in her dream, and she didn't know if it was her delusion, she always felt that Wen Rugu was taller than her at her age, but there was no definite evidence, so she didn't take it seriously.

She thought that Wen Rusu did indeed start to grow taller after the age of sixteen, and since she would still grow taller in the end, there was no need to do some things in advance to help the seedlings grow, it was better to go with the flow.

Thinking like this, Ah Yu retreated back to his original position.

Sitting on the wooden stool, she reached out and picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip: "You said that my mother teaches chess in the academy, and she teaches eight or nine days a month at most, so doesn't there be a lot of free time?" ”

Xie Huai'an didn't know why Ah Yu asked this, but since Ah Yu asked, he naturally gave an answer after careful consideration.

"Maybe it's because those seven or eight days were intermittent, and the free time they had was not connected, and the free time that Mrs. Wen and the third lady decided in their hearts was when the academy was on vacation?"

gave several guesses in a row, Xie Huai didn't have a fixed number in his peace of mind, thought about it, changed the topic again, and asked Ah Yu: "Why did Ah Yu suddenly think of these things?" ”

Ah Yu originally wanted to tell Xie Huai'an about Grandma Sun directly, but after thinking about it, although she and Xie Huai'an are friends, as the saying goes, things like this that involve the privacy of the family may not be said directly, so she said it again.

“…… It's that someone is going to assassinate my mother behind my back, and then our family learned the news in advance and found out the identity of the other party. Ah Yu sighed, a little unable to figure out the intention of Mrs. Wen, "According to me, shouldn't this situation be to directly hit the door, so that the person who is doing things behind his back will no longer dare to have the intention of assassinating others?" But my mother said that she would wait until she and my father had free time to take care of each other, isn't this a reluctance to seek the near and far? ”

"Who knows if those villains will still play other tricks behind their backs, it's really hard to figure out!"

Xie Huai paused, he didn't expect that there would be people who dared to attack the Wen family behind his back, didn't they know how much the saint respected the old lady Wen?

He also couldn't figure it out just like Ah Yu.

However, looking at Ah Yu's sullen appearance, he thought about it carefully before saying: "Maybe it's because the person behind the scenes you said is very involved, that is, Master Wen San and Mrs. Wen San personally took action, and they couldn't solve the matter in a short time, so they postponed the matter later?" ”

"I've thought about this too, but my mother just doesn't want to mention the identity of the person behind the scenes to me, and no amount of speculation is just empty talk when there is no verification of facts...... "Ah Yu thought of this, and her heart was even more depressed.

If she could, she didn't want to stay in the box and criticize Xie Huai'an about her father's and mother's practices, but who told her that she couldn't do anything else except empty talk!

Xie Huai'an pushed the pastries on the table to Ah Yu's side, and he couldn't let Ah Yu be so sullen anymore, so he said to Ah Yu: "In a few days, it will be the Dragon Boat Festival, and after the Dragon Boat Festival, the academy will almost be on holiday, and then Mrs. Wen and the three ladies will naturally have free time, and Ah Yu doesn't have to be so anxious." Speaking of which, when we come out for dinner today, we won't just talk about this one thing, right? ”

Ah Yu hurriedly shook her head, she came out to Xie Huai'an today, she was originally going to inquire about other things, and she would talk about Grandma Sun's affairs, but it was just a coincidence.

Just a few days ago, Ah Yu heard the idea of Mrs. Wen proposing to go out to study in the courtyard.

When Mrs. Wen was young, just like the uncle of the Wen family, she would often travel abroad, and only when she grew older and started a family would she stay in Kyoto.

It happened that during this time, there were many students in the White Horse Academy who wanted to go out to see the world, and it was supposed that the gentleman in the academy would take them to the academies of other state capitals to exchange, but Mrs. Wen happened to have the idea of going out for a walk, so she took the matter of leading the students to herself.

Of course, this has a lot to do with the identity of Old Lady Wen's mountain chief.

Calculate the time, in Wen Ru's memory, when Wen Huan proposed to go out to study, it seemed that it was just after Mrs. Wen left.

It is precisely because of Old Lady Wen Zhuyu in front that no one will object to Wen Huan's request.

Ayu: "I heard that my grandfather is going to take some of his students on a trip, and the return date is uncertain. When my grandfather talked about this in the courtyard, I saw that my brother seemed to be very interested in traveling, but my grandfather didn't let my brother go out with him, and he didn't know that the elder brother of the Xie family was among the people who were not in the group that my grandfather had brought with him......

In fact, she knew that Xie Huaining was not taken by Old Lady Wen either.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been the only one who survived the catastrophe.

Xie Huai'an touched the tip of his nose, if Ah Yu asked about other things, he might not know how to say it, but he really knew this matter clearly.

Who asked Xie Huaining to discuss with his friends, and happened to bring him with him!

He smiled and said, "My brother doesn't plan to go with Old Lady Wen......"

The main reason is that when Mrs. Wen talked about traveling in the academy, Xie Huaining and the others had not yet had that thought, and after Mrs. Wen had already found all the candidates on Mrs. Wen's side, when they mentioned going out to travel, they could only find some close friends to travel with, but they couldn't go with Mrs. Wen.

After all, Mrs. Wen and their trip were nominally to travel and exchange experiences in the academies of different state capitals.

In this way, a group of people must not be able to bring too much, if there are too many people, then it is not called exchanging experiences, it has to be called smashing the field.

Xie Huai'an explained to Ah Yu: "My brother originally planned to wait for the imperial examination next year to go directly to the court, but there is a scholar surnamed Fang in a group of his friends, who was also a well-known genius when he was a child, and he had already become a talent at the age of ten, but later I don't know if it was because everyone's expectations for him were too high, or other reasons, although he did not take the exam, his results in the ten-month examination in the academy were not very good." ”

After the end of the ten-month exam not long ago, his grades were a mess again, and then the whole person's mentality seemed to collapse.

That Fang Shusheng was either sighing or sullen all day long, and he looked much more gloomy when he looked at it, but he was still a mutual friend of Xie Huaining and Wen Huan.

Friends are suddenly in a predicament, like Xie Huaining and Wen Huan, they must find a way to cheer their friends back.

"Isn't this just in time for the mountain chief to take people out to communicate! My brother thought that Fang Shusheng might be timid on the spot because of too much pressure in Su Rili, so he planned to take someone out to practice his courage. But the mountain chief and his party represented the reputation of the White Horse Academy, and my brother didn't want to go with the mountain chief and them, but was going to reconnect with a group of friends, and not go too far away, just go around several state capitals near Kyoto. ”

Xie Huai'an didn't tell Ah Yu that Xie Huaining was going to go directly to the next state capital along Lishui, and he was also going to take a tailwind boat and go directly to the border pass.

What Master Xie said to him before, he already had a calculation in his heart.

Compared with others, Xie Huai'an is still very young now, and he has been out for two years, no matter whether he has achieved results in the end or not, he can be regarded as a person who has seen the world, and when he comes back and talks about other things, it will always be better than now.

Sure enough, you've been preparing for it right now!

Ah Yu lowered his head and took a sip of tea in his cup, and began to think about how to persuade his brother to postpone their trip or go another route.

Speaking of which, if she did this, it would not only change the lives of one or two, but I don't know if her small body would be able to withstand so many death experiences at that time.

If you don't make it, it's a big problem!

She looked up at Xie Huai'an opposite, and found that the death on this person's face had not changed, and suddenly she thought that he was also on the boat that her brother was on.

"When the time comes, my brother will definitely walk with the elder brother of the Xie family. And what about you, will you leave with them too? ”

Xie Huai paused, thinking back to what he had just said, he never mentioned himself from beginning to end, but he didn't expect Ah Yu to guess his mind at once, I don't know if this can be regarded as a little understanding!

Suddenly there was a delusion in his heart, and his ears were red, but when he looked at Ah Yu, his eyes were very serious.

"Ah Yu, you also know that I have no talent in the imperial examination, I probably followed my uncle and them, and all my talents are gathered in martial arts." Xie Huai'an smiled, with the cunning unique to young people in his expression, "My brother is planning to go down the imperial examination in two years, what they are thinking about at this time is to accumulate a lot of money, and I should also think about my own future, I want to go to the border pass, if I can fight in the border pass, it is also a very good thing!" ”

"Go to the border pass, if you take the waterway first, and then turn to the official road, the road will be much closer."

"My brother's plan to travel is to start by water, and if you say that I leave with them, to be precise, it is not right or wrong, because I am just rubbing their downwind boat, and when they reach the next state capital, I will turn to the official road......"

What else did he say later?

But Ah Yu didn't hear clearly.

All she was thinking about was that Xie Huai'an shouldn't be greedy for the wind boat, and went directly to the border with the army of the imperial court transporting grain and grass, wouldn't she be happy? Why do you have to fight with the tailwind!

As Xie Huai'an spoke, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Ah Yu's absent-minded appearance, and just when he stopped talking and was about to ask Ah Yu if what he said was too boring, there was a sudden knock on the door of the box.

Qingrui knocked on the door, her voice full of panic: "Girl, girl, Madame has sent someone to find you!" ”

Mrs. Wen San knew that Ah Yu and Xie Huai'an went out to eat together, and she suddenly asked people to come to Ah Yu, and she didn't know what was going on.
