Seeing that it was still early, she simply went to the shop where she bought meat buns again, bought a big meat bun, found a corner where no one was in her arms, ate the meat buns, and then went to the academy.

Finding the academy with a familiar car, Du Jinning said hello to the old man guarding the door: "Old man, please help me find the seventh young master Guan." ”

I don't know if I brushed my face last time, or if Guan Jiaze specially confessed, although the old man who guarded the door didn't put her in directly, but before he went to help her find someone, he invited her into his room to roast the fire, and poured her a cup of hot water, and then went into the academy to find Guan Jiaze.

Without waiting for Du Jinning to warm his body, Guan Jiaze came over, his face was red and he was panting, obviously he came running.

Before he could catch his breath, he asked, "Book...... What about books? ”

Du Jinning took out the book from his arms and handed it over.

Guan Jiaze took it and opened it directly and planned to look at it, but halfway through, his hand froze, raised his head and smiled embarrassedly at Du Jinning, and said, "It's so good-looking, I can't help but want to know the plot below." ”

Du Jinning smiled lightly: "It's an honor for this book to be liked by Young Master Guan." ”

Guan Jiaze didn't read it anymore, closed the book, put it in his arms again, took out a piece of silver from his purse, and handed it to Du Jinning: "Here you go." ”

Seeing this, Du Jinning didn't speak, took the silver and looked at it, and handed it back: "It's too much, I said it yesterday, only one or two or five dollars of silver." "I'm afraid that this ingot in her hand will not weigh three or four.

Guan Jiaze glanced at her, waved his hand and said, "Take it, the extra will be considered a reward for you." ”

Du Jinning groaned slightly, then put away the silver, and without waiting for Guan Jiaze to have any thoughts in her heart, she said: "I will accept the silver, next time I will send the book over, Young Master Guan doesn't need to give the silver anymore, this ingot is enough for two books." ”

Hearing this, Guan Jiaze looked at her fixedly, and suddenly laughed. Walked to the chair next to him and sat down, stretched out his hand to bake the fire, and asked, "I heard Zhang Hongwen say, do you want to study in the academy?" ”

Du Jinning smiled and bowed: "The kid has a vain thought, so Young Master Guan laughed." The faculty of the college is good, and I yearn for it. If you can get Young Master Guan's help and get your wish, the kid will definitely write two more good-looking books to thank Young Master Guan. ”

Guan Jiaze looked at her with interest when he heard this, touched his chin and asked, "Since you asked me, why did you accept my money instead of giving me the book directly?" You are such a petty family, you have to ask me to help you get things done before you give a thank you gift, aren't you afraid that I will be too lazy to pay attention to you in a fit of anger? You must know, sir, I am not short of silver, it is you who is short of silver. Even if you don't thank me or sell me books, you always have to sell them to the bookstore, I always have books to read, and besides, you're not the only one who can write a book, right? Is it worth it that you missed an opportunity to get this two taels of silver? ”

Du Jinning laughed.

She was also smiling, but the smile was shallow and faint, revealing a polite detachment. But now this smile is like a spring bloom, a hundred flowers are blooming, making people's hearts warm and dazzling, and I can't help but want to be close to her.

She said: "If I give the book to Young Master Guan first, and Young Master Guan will come to help me again, won't I have to be talked about?" Those people will say that Young Master Guan is only speaking for a country boy for the sake of that book worth two taels of silver, so wouldn't it be to find two interesting books, young master, you will also help them? In the end, they came to the door one by one, young master, do you want to help? If you don't help, although it won't be a big problem for you, but the reputation is not good after all, won't it become my sin? I wouldn't do such a stupid thing, and you don't want me to do it, Young Master Guan? ”

Guan Jiaze was indulging in her dazzling smile and hadn't come back to her senses yet, when she heard such a very crooked but very reasonable remark.

He unconsciously opened his mouth wide, looked at Du Jinning in a daze, and couldn't come back to his senses for a while.

Outside the door, someone couldn't help but laugh, and then Zhang Hongwen walked in from outside.

"Hahaha, Brother Ning, I only heard that you are very smart, but I didn't expect you to be so interesting, your remarks are really reasonable."

Guan Jiaze closed his mouth at this time, looked Du Jinning up and down again, nodded, and agreed with Zhang Hongwen's words: "Interesting, really interesting." Then he couldn't help but smile and asked Du Jinning, "So, I have to thank you for thinking about me?" ”

Du Jinning arched his hand very sincerely: "Young Master Guan doesn't have to be polite. ”

Guan Jiaze couldn't help it, "haha" laughed, pointed at Du Jinning and said to Zhang Hongwen, "Where did you find such a living treasure?" So interesting. ”

Zhang Hongwen shook his head helplessly and laughed.

After laughing for a while, Guan Jiaze stood up and said to Du Jinning: "Since you said so, then I have to admit your feelings." Let's go, now follow me to the mountain chief. With that, he led the way to the door.

The academy is very large, with seventy or eighty acres, and when they entered through the gate, the three of them walked a full cup of tea. Along the way, the scholars he met would greet Guan Jiaze, and his eyes fell on Du Jinning suspiciously.

Although the academy does not wear standard clothes, everyone wears long shirts, and those who can go to Boyue Academy to study, their family backgrounds are generally not bad, even if they can't wear silk and satin, but fine cloth caftan can also be worn, no one is like Du Jinning, the clothes on his body are washed and can't see their true colors, and they are patched and patched, and they look like children from poor families.

How could such a person walk with Young Master Guan Qi?

Seeing these eyes, Zhang Hongwen was worried that Du Jinning would be uncomfortable, so he couldn't help but walk to her side and block the sight of those who looked at him, which made Du Jinning's heart warm, and he raised his head and smiled at him: "Thank you." ”

Guan Jiaze saw this scene, and then saw Du Jinning down-and-out and generous, with a calm expression, not feeling uncomfortable at all because of those eyes, nor did he have the curiosity of looking around when countrymen entered the city, and his heart became more and more interested in her.

After a while, the three of them arrived at the place where Guan Lehe, the mountain chief, was.

"You wait here first, I'll go in and report it." Guan Jiaze led Du Jinning and Zhang Hongwen up the steps, then confessed and entered the house by himself.

As soon as he entered, an old man in his fifties walked up the hallway. Seeing Zhang Hongwen and Du Jinning, he was stunned for a moment and asked, "Yanchuan, what are you doing here?" ”

恣川 is the word of Zhang Hongwen, taken from "Hongwen has no fan, and it is in Sichuan".
