Parents are not around, the eldest brother is like a father, the elder brother is the family, and the younger sister is either married or studying, anyway, she can't be idle all day long. Although he didn't look down on Xiao Yuwen before, maybe he will change his ways after a few years.

Guo Xun came late today, but there is one later than him, that is Xiao Yuwen, the son of Taiwei Mansion.

When some students saw him coming, they all greeted him: "Senior Brother Xiao is here." ”

Xiao Yuwen is talented, and there are many people in the academy who support him.

"Is the gentleman here?" Xiao Yuwen looked tired, barely opened his eyes, leaned against the door, and looked lazy.

He sent them the article he wrote for them yesterday, and by the way, he received one or two taels of silver from each person.

It's been three years, and he hasn't increased the price yet, and it's still a tael of silver within a hundred words.

"Sir hasn't come yet, I heard that there are some things at home that will come later."

"Oh." Xiao Yuwen took off his coat and hung it on the hanger next to the wall, "I knew that Mr. didn't come, so I would have slept more." ”

He sat lazily in his seat, his head propped up and drowsy.

A squint and caught a glimpse of Yi Linfeng sitting next to him.

Yi Linfeng also saw him. I haven't seen him for three years, he hasn't changed at all except that he's taller than himself, he's still the same casual appearance that can't wake up, just now I thought he could change it for the better, it seems that he really thinks too much.

"Eh, why did you come to Ning'an?" Xiao Yuwen asked, feeling that his hands could no longer support his head, and he wanted to lie on the table with his whole body.

Yi Linfeng knew that he asked himself, but he neither got up nor saluted, he was very rude, and he sat and continued to read as if he didn't hear it.

"Cut." Xiao Yuwen found it boring, and he didn't mind, so he simply fell asleep on the table.

When he saw Yi Linfeng just now, he felt familiar, and after thinking about it for a long time, he remembered that he had seen him in Xiangzhou County three years ago.

As for Yi Jiaren, Yi Zhihua or something, he had long forgotten to clean it.

I was sleeping soundly, and suddenly heard someone calling my name, Xiao Yuwen thought that Mr. was coming, so he sat up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that Guo Xun was standing in front of him and shouted: "Xiao Yuwen, I warn you, don't ask my sister out again in the future, you only sent her back so late yesterday, and she is kneeling at home today." ”

Xiao Yuwen stretched: "Oh, I thought Mr. was here, it scared me." Don't worry, never again, she dumped me for the fifth time yesterday. As he spoke, he fell asleep again.

"You—" Guo Xun blushed with anger. I'm telling you, she's already married, and you don't want to go to her again. ”

"Don't worry, as long as she doesn't come to harass me again." Xiao Yuwen's head surged a little, so that he could lie more comfortably.

Seeing his lazy appearance, Guo Xun was so angry that he wanted to beat him, and stood at his table for a long time before returning to his seat.

Yi Linfeng next to him shook his head, he was a classmate with him, or he didn't think he was lazy, but he didn't know that he was careful.

It was not until midnight that the gentleman came. He was an old man in his sixties, with gray hair, but he did not look old at all, and always had a kind smile on his face, and the students called him Mr. Yu.

Mr. Yu's lectures are funny, his opinions are closely related to current affairs, and he is heart-to-heart with the students, and the students respect him from the bottom of their hearts. After listening to the noon class, Yi Linfeng felt that he had benefited a lot, and he was very glad to come to Ning'an.

At lunchtime, the students all went to eat, but Xiao Yuwen did not go.

Last night, Guo Xun's sister Guo Yao came to him to listen to the music, he accidentally offended the eldest lady, Guo Yao was angry and dropped a Lushan kiln porcelain waist drum in the store, and left after falling. Leaving him to pay the store twenty taels of silver was not enough, and he wrote an IOU of thirty taels before the store let him back.

Today is the day of the academy to pay the money, in the morning his mother Wu gave him thirty taels of silver to pay the money, he planned to take the thirty taels to pay the store first, but the people only gave two days, or they had to find their home.

If my mother knew about it, I would have to go hungry first, and then I would earn money by writing articles for my classmates.

After lying on his stomach for a long time, Xiao Yuwen only hopes to have a big job now, it would be better if there was a hunting exam, and if he shot a few prey for them, he would get dozens of taels of silver.

After eating, the students walked around the courtyard to eat. Qin Ziyu, the son of the Marquis of Wu'an, walked in and pushed Xiao Yuwen: "Hey, are you starving to death?" ”

"Go away, I'm not hungry." Xiao Yuwen impatiently pushed his hand away.

"You're not going to run out of money again, are you?" Qin Ziyu said, and put an oiled paper wrap in front of him.

Qin Ziyu and Xiao Yuwen are close friends, the two have studied here for a few years, and he knows Xiao Yuwen's situation very well and often helps him.

was poked by him again, Xiao Yuwen didn't pretend anymore, he lay on the table and opened the paper bag and twisted a piece of beef and threw it in his mouth: "Eh, you say, why doesn't the academy organize a hunt?" ”

Qin Ziyu smiled: "It seems that you are short of silver this time, what's the matter, you have asked Miss Lin again?" ”

"No, I can't make an appointment. Ask her once, and I will be a cow and a horse for you for a month. Xiao Yuwen chewed the beef in his mouth, feeling a little distressed about the silver.

"You go to dinner tomorrow, I've already given you the money."

"Really?" Xiao Yuwen suddenly came to his senses and grabbed Qin Ziyu's hand: "Brother Qin, you are really my own brother." ”

Qin Ziyu disliked his hand of oil, and quickly pulled his hand back: "Eh, pay attention, don't call me brother, I'm still one year younger than you, don't call me old." ”

"Uh-huh." Xiao Yuwen nodded hurriedly, and it was his brother who helped him at the critical moment.

"Also, please be careful when you help me write articles in the future, and don't copy them in what I wrote for them, or Mr. will always think that I copied them."

"Hmm... Okay, yours and I will definitely write well in the future, you have helped me so many times, I really don't know how to thank you. ”

Xiao Yuwen was so moved that he was about to cry, it is enough to have a confidant in life!

Qin Ziyu patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, I'll remember it for you, this time it's thirty taels, plus the seventy-eight taels owed before, counting the interest, it's a total of one hundred and twenty-one taels..."

Interest? I treat you as a brother, but you can calculate it clearly with me, and you will calculate my interest.

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yuwen roared: "Get out..."

"What are you doing, suddenly turn your face, I will give you the cheapest interest."

"Get out..."Xiao Yuwen roared again.

The students outside were not surprised when they heard the quarrel inside, and it was common for the two of them to be noisy and quarrelsome.

Only Yi Linfeng, a newcomer, was more curious: "Brother Guo, what's going on inside?" It's not going to fight, is it? ”

Guo Xun shook his head: "No." ”

"Why are they arguing?"

"Because of poverty."

"Huh?"

Yi Linfeng doesn't understand, except for himself, I'm afraid he can't find a second poor person.

"One of them is the son of the Taiwei Mansion, and the other is the son of the Wu'an Hou Mansion, how can they be poor, if you want to say that you are poor, then only me." Yi Linfeng sneered.

"Qin Ziyu is not poor, the poor is Xiao Yuwen, yesterday he and my sister went to listen to the music, and offended her, that aunt and grandmother dropped a Lushan kiln porcelain waist drum in the store, and people asked him to pay fifty taels, and he is now cutting down on food and clothing for debts." Guo Xun drank tea and told him about it.

At this point, Yi Linfeng has a new understanding of Xiao Yuwen, he is not lazy, he is still very flowery, and he is poor.
