Chapter XVII

Yang Yuhuan always thought that if her father hadn't taken Fang Yun's money to gamble, Fang Yun's parents wouldn't have gone to other places to encounter demon beasts, and she always felt that she owed Fang Yun.

In order to atone for her sins, Yang Yuhuan added layer after layer of burden to herself, which made her breathless, and the emotional world was blank.

Now that Fang Yun has finally been admitted to Tongsheng, and is the head of the double armor case, most of the burden in her heart has finally gone.

She was happily preparing a banquet with her relatives today, waiting for Fang Yun to come back from the meeting, but with the arrival of the matchmaker, her good mood disappeared.

Yang Yuhuan was scared.

She had never been afraid before, because she had a firm goal in her heart, but now that she had achieved it, her heart seemed empty.

She found that the only person she could rely on now was Fang Yun, but those matchmakers and those big families seemed to want to rob her of Fang Yun.

Just when she was most worried, Fang Yun came back and proposed in public.

Yang Yuhuan finally knew that no one could take away Fang Yun.

Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but smile sweetly, and then reached out and touched his face, hot with shame.

"Xiaoyun him, it's really different. Yang Yuhuan thought in his heart, his originally empty heart slowly filled, and his face became more and more red.

In the past, Yang Yuhuan's goal was to make Fang Yun grow up, but now, her goal is to be Fang Yun's wife.

Fang Yun opened his eyes and saw Yang Yuhuan's delicate smiling face, like a peach blossom blooming in the moonlight, it was simply a fairy descending to earth, and he couldn't help but be moved.

Yang Yuhuan didn't expect Fang Yun to suddenly open his eyes, shocked and ashamed, and subconsciously wanted to run away.

Fang Yun reached out and grabbed her wrist and whispered, "I pretended to be drunk, so I just wanted to find a chance to talk to you." ”

Yang Yuhuan's face was full of shame, and her sister-like appearance disappeared without a trace, she lowered her head, hummed softly, and let Fang Yun hold it.

"There are one hundred taels of silver tickets in my coat, which were given by Su Juren, you take them and put them away. From now on, you will no longer work for others, nor will you be allowed to do menial work, do you hear?"

"But ......"

"It's nothing, you've worked hard for this family for so many years, it's time to rest, and in the future, I'll take this home!"

Yang Yuhuan raised his head slowly, a little less shy, a little more moved, and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Xiaoyun." ”

"With the gift money from others, it's enough for us to spend a long time. You go and hire a maid or buy a maid to help with the housework, all you have to do now is to be idle, play, and eat, and take care of your body, do you know the way?"

"Hmm. Yang Yuhuan's eyes were red, she didn't expect happiness to come so quickly, and it was countless times better than she imagined.

"Over the years, I've suffered you. Fang Yun sighed lightly.

Yang Yuhuan not only did not continue to cry, but said in a rare firm tone: "I used to feel bitter, but now that I see that you are promising, I don't feel bitter at all!

Fang Yun's gaze softened.

"Sister Yuhuan, starting tomorrow, I'll teach you how to read. ”

"Really?" Yang Yuhuan asked happily.

"Of course, in the future, I will teach you ten words a day, and within a year you will be able to read and write, and by the way, I will teach you arithmetic. ”

"No, you have to spend your time studying, you still have to take the Xiucai exam, you can't waste your time on me. Yang Yuhuan said.

"I can't read all the time, there are always times when I'm tired of reading, and it's just right to teach you literacy and arithmetic, how about it?"

"That'...... All right. Yang Yuhuan didn't know how to refute it.

The two chatted for a while, and Fang Yun came up with the strength of wine and slowly fell asleep.

The next day, Fang Yun slept until three poles in the morning, got dressed and walked out, and found that Yang Yuhuan was feeding the chickens, and the three horses had taken off their harnesses and were tied to the chicken coop.

"Sister Yuhuan, early. ”

"Early. Yang Yuhuan straightened up and looked at Fang Yun, with a bright smile on his face, "I'll give you a hot meal, you still have to go to the holy temple to pay homage to the saints, and after eating, take the carriage." ”

"It's not a long way out, just walk. Fang Yundao.

After a while, the meal was hot, Fang Yun ate, and Yang Yuhuan sat opposite and said the congratulatory gift he received yesterday.

"There were a lot of vegetables, meat, wine, and so on that were delivered yesterday, but there were many people who came, and most of them ate them. There was a lot of money, so I asked Xiao Mao to help me write it down. Not counting Su Juren, there are a total of two hundred and twenty-four two five hundred wen. ”

"So many?" Fang Yun said.

"You are the head of the Shuangjia case, and those big families in the county have sent money. I heard Mr. Fang, who was a lecturer in the county school last night, say that he has passed on the matter of your double armor to the Fang family of Dayuan Mansion, and the Fang family of Dayuan Mansion will definitely give you a generous gift. ”

Fang Yun nodded. People with the surname Fang are scattered all over the place, some are declining, some are rising, and the Fang family of Dayuan Mansion is the most prosperous one, and it is already a famous family.

Fang Yun is a relative of the Fang family of Dayuan Mansion within nine generations in the genealogy, and with a literary position, the Fang family of Dayuan Mansion will definitely send congratulatory gifts.

If the family is poor, the Dayuan Mansion Fang family will also contribute money to subsidize it.

It is the norm for the same clan to help each other, and it is also the norm for the descendants and collaterals to compete with each other, and the interests dictate it.

For the Fang family of Dayuan Mansion, Fang Yun can't even talk about the side lineage, so he won't get involved in any fights at all, but he accepts the help of the same surname now, and if he has the opportunity to help other people in the future.

Fang Yundao: "The county examination, the government examination, the state examination and the Beijing examination will be held in spring, summer, autumn and winter respectively, and I will participate in the government examination in three months." ”

"Don't you want to study for a year anymore? Although the imperial examination is held every year, most people have to study for two or three years after passing the examination before continuing to take the examination. You won't be fighting for the double armor and want to fight for the 'same year', right?" Yang Yuhuan asked curiously.

The so-called same year is to continuously pass the Tongsheng, Xiucai, Juren and Jinshi within one year, which is the same as the "Holy Front", "Shuangjia" and "Sanyuan", which is a very high honor, but many people have tried, but no one has ever succeeded, and it belongs to the imperial examination crown that has never been taken off.

"I didn't think so. Ordinary children want to study at the county academy, and I am the head of the case, and I am qualified to go directly to the prefecture academy to study, this is a rare opportunity, and I can't give it up. Since I am going to study at the Prefectural Academy, of course, I will take the prefectural examination this summer. It's just that the Liu family is powerful in Dayuan Mansion, and if this hidden danger is not solved, I can't rush to Dayuan Mansion. ”

At this moment, a carriage stopped outside the door, and Fang Yun saw an acquaintance get out of the car.

Xiucai Fang Yusheng, who came yesterday, is a lecturer of the county academy, equivalent to a teacher, although he has no grade but receives a salary, and can participate in the imperial examination.

The door was open, and Fang Yusheng nodded to Fang Yun after getting out of the car, and then bowed his head respectfully and waited at the door of the carriage.

A man of about forty years of age walked down, a tall and stout man, with a serious countenance, and his eyes were somewhat out of proportion, but he also looked extremely energetic because of it.

The man's steps were extremely heavy, and when his feet hit the ground, he stepped on a large cloud of dust.

This man was not wearing a scholar's robe, but long boots and short beats, unusually capable, much like a soldier.

Fang Yun vaguely guessed the identity of this person, and immediately got up with Yang Yuhuan, arching his hand as he walked: "My nephew doesn't know that my uncle is coming, and I hope my uncle will forgive me." ”

"Have you seen me?" the man's voice was so loud that the roof trembled.

"I've never seen it, but in Jiangzhou, except for Fang Shouye's 'Fang Big Eyes', who can have such a demeanor. Fang Yun said with a smile.

Fang Shouye laughed and asked, "Are you Fang Yun who wrote "Spring Dawn" and "Twilight"?"

"Yes. ”

"Do you mean that the world rises and falls, and the husband is responsible?"

"It's also a nephew. Fang Yundao.

Fang Shouye carefully glanced at Fang Yun and said, "Good writing." It's a pity that I'm too thin, I have to eat more meat in the future, how can a man do without meat. Yusheng, you two bring your things in. After speaking, he entered the house with Fang Yun.

Fang Shouye walked with a tiger, sitting on a bench with a golden sword, but he was such a rugged figure, but he was a jinshi and the general of the Zhengwupin Mansion of Yuhai Mansion.

There is no martial imperial examination in the Shengyuan Continent, and the officials of the three departments of the literary academy, civil officials, and military officers are all scholars from the imperial examination.

Fang Yusheng and the coachman came in with a large box and opened the box at Fang Shouye's signal.

A box was full of silver ingots, each of which was twenty taels of large ingots, no less than fifty at a rough glance, and a thick pile of silver tickets was placed in the center.

Underneath the second chest is silk and satin, covered with a lot of jewelry, such as gold hairpins, silver bracelets, jade pendants, gemstone necklaces, etc., as well as some gold bars and gold leaves.

Yang Yuhuan let out a soft snort, then covered her mouth and looked at the two boxes of things in disbelief, she almost used all her strength to take her eyes off the pile of jewelry, lowered her head, and said nothing.

"Uncle, what are you doing?" Fang Yun pretended not to know, and he was prepared, so he was not shocked in the slightest because of these two boxes of gold and silver treasures, which was a side effect of watching too many movies and playing too many games.

Fang Shouye was also silent on the surface, but in his heart he was secretly surprised, a mere poor boy was unmoved in the face of so much wealth, and even the children of famous and wealthy families couldn't do it.

"These two boxes of things, in exchange for a promise for you, if you are a high school sergeant or a person, join our military. ”

Fang Yunmian did not change his color and said: "Less." ”

Fang Yusheng and Ma Fu looked at Fang Yun with extremely strange eyes, thinking that this kid is crazy, right?

"Ten thousand taels of silver is a lot. Fang Shouye's face also did not change.

"Determine my future, 10,000 taels of silver is not enough. Fang Yun didn't have a clear understanding of this world now, and he would never just agree rashly.

Fang Shouye's expression finally changed slightly, and he snorted coldly in displeasure, and asked, "Then how did you agree to join our military?"

"It's too early to say anything, I may not even be able to pass the exam, let alone Jinshi. Fang Yun said indifferently.

Fang Shouye suddenly lost all his momentum, showed a look of frustration, and asked: "Are you really enlightened? Why can't Lao Tzu give birth to a good son like you? When I was twenty years old, I picked up a life on the battlefield and became much more sensible, and I may not be as calm as you. ”

Fang Yun said slowly: "I just picked up a life. ”

Yang Yuhuan looked at Fang Yun distressedly.

Fang Shouye immediately scolded: "The Liu family doesn't have a good thing from top to bottom! Liu Zicheng is a famous playboy in Dayuan Mansion, and he spends all his time drinking with a group of sons, and I don't know how many yellow flower girls he has harmed. Liu Zicheng is ruthless and will not give up, but he dares to touch a child, and he will never dare to touch our nephew who is guarding his business! I will go and burn down the largest pawnshop in their Liu family tonight, and then tell Liu Zicheng that if he dares to trouble you again, Lao Tzu will kill him alive!"

"Uncle, you're laughing. Fang Yun didn't expect Fang Shouye to know about this matter, I'm afraid it was Fang Yusheng who told him.

"Joke, I even dare to burn the tent of the barbarian Marquis Shan Yu, and I still care about a pawnshop? ”

"Yes, General. The coachman surnamed Yuan immediately agreed.
