Chapter 170: The Zhao Family's Son

After staying in the orchard, Zhao Yan found that everyone was very busy, so he took his guards and began to walk around the village, and gradually heard a lot of Cheng Xi's deeds, which surprised him to shock, and then came to a conclusion, in the end, it was the woman that the eldest prince fancied, even if it was a peasant girl, it was not simple to be a little shorter and darker.

A woman actually thought of running a private school in the village, even many men never thought about it, how did she, a woman, think of this?

On the day of the opening ceremony of the private school, Zhao Yan also participated, and he also agreed that during his stay in Lihua Village, he would give the children free husbands in the private school.

Although no one was invited to the opening ceremony, the people of Lihua Village were almost all there, and the private school was built at the foot of the mountain next to the grange, and there was a shallow ditch in front of it, a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, Cheng Xi felt that his private school, such an environment, was many times better than the environment of the county school in the county, and maybe in the future, he would be able to train a few champions and other big officials, and then see who dared to use her identity to press her.

Of course, Cheng Xi also thought about this in his heart, and at present, he still said that it was still an unattainable luxury, because the gentleman in their private school was only Mr. Wu, and the other gentleman was barely making up the number first, and only the trustworthy people who could really teach were not so easy to find, and only the mother was looking for them.

The people of Lihua Village are very excited, they don't have as much as Cheng Xi thought, they just hope that their children can know a few more words, not like them, they don't know a single word, they are content.

Moreover, the private school is actually free of two years of bondage, and their children are free to read, which is a great favor, how can they not be happy.

The people of Lihua Village, everyone's faces were full of joy, and even Yu Zhaocai was infected, and his face was always smiling.

Thinking of Zhao Yan's identity, Cheng Xi invited Zhao Yan to unveil the plaque, and with the sound of firecrackers, the sign covered with red silk at the main entrance of the private school was also revealed, the name was taken by Cheng Xi, but it was approved by everyone, "Tianxia Academy", this name, is full of domineering.

Of course, everyone only refers to a few people who know how to read, most of them don't know what is written on it, and only follow the blind coaxing to say a good name, only when Mr. Wu speaks, everyone knows that the words on the sign are called Tianxia Academy.

As soon as the opening ceremony was completed, the private school was on the right track, and the children began to go to the private school on time according to Mr. Private's request.

Because Cheng Xi is interested in the private school, Yu Zhaocai has also made a lot of efforts, and the children's textbooks are all provided by Yu Zhaocai, of course, the textbooks are owned by the private school, and the children can read and learn, but they can't take it for themselves.

After Zhao Yan agreed to come down and go to the private school to be a gentleman, he also reported on time every day, which was quite responsible.

Cheng Xi felt that this Zhao Yan was really good, much more pleasing than that Ge Shu, so whatever pastries he made up would be sent to Zhao Yan in the private school.

After a long time, the villagers of Lihua Village misunderstood the relationship between Cheng Xi and Zhao Yan, of course, the people of Lihua Village are grateful to Cheng Xi, of course they will not say ugly words, but they are happy for Cheng Xi, anyway, Cheng Xi's father-in-law who has never shown up, they have never seen it, but this Zhao Gongzi and them, the female god of wealth in Lihua Village, are simply a talented man and a woman, a match made in heaven.

At the beginning of April, everything recovered, everywhere was full of life, in the orchard, the peach blossoms and pear blossoms were blooming, beautiful, and Cheng Xi spent more time outside.

Cheng Xi didn't worry about his tanning at all, but someone was worried about him, Zhao Yan looked at the back of Cheng Xi who left after giving him the pastries, and said to his guards on the side, "Do we still have the pearl powder to wash your face?" ”

The guard replied, "Two more boxes." ”

Zhao Yan said, "Take a box out at dinner." Forget it, take out both boxes. ”

At dinner, the guards really brought two boxes of pearl powder, Zhao Yan took it, pushed it in front of Cheng Xi, and said, "These two boxes are good pearl powder, Xi'er can try to use it, but it can make the skin fair, if it is useful, wait for me to go back, and send some to Xi'er." ”

Cheng Xi first looked at the two rouge boxes in front of him with a puzzled expression, and then reacted after a while and said, "So you mean that you think I'm too dark?" ”

Zhao Yan didn't expect Cheng Xi to say this directly, and replied embarrassedly, "Girl, it's better to be fair-skinned and better-looking, and I will be happier when Brother Xu comes back to see Xi'er." ”

Cheng Xi was very depressed, she thought that her wheat-colored skin was full of health and vitality, which was very good, but she was actually disliked by others, and it was okay to be disliked, this person kindly gave her two boxes of pearl powder.

After Zhao Yan finished speaking, he saw that Cheng Xi was still staring at the rouge box with a depressed face, so he had to say embarrassedly and against his will, "Actually, Xi'er looks very good, but if she is fairer, it will look better." ”

Cheng Xi bit his lip depressedly and looked up at Zhao Yan, "Your man's aesthetics, do you have to be fair-skinned to look good?" ”

Zhao Yan replied embarrassedly, "No, it's better to be fair-skinned, and you're also good, good." ”

Cheng Xi pursed his lips and responded, "Then I'm not welcome to these two boxes." ”

Zhao Yan felt that he had done a super stupid thing, but fortunately, Cheng Xi didn't say anything after accepting the two boxes of pearl powder, and Zhao Yan also breathed a sigh of relief.

After dinner, after Zhao Yan left, Cheng Xi sat in the main hall, looking at the two boxes of pearl powder in a daze.

Draw conclusions from Zhao Yan's body, so men think fair-skinned women are better-looking, so their wheat-colored healthy skin is not pleasing?

I am indeed a lot darker than before, so after Xu Saburo comes back, will he dislike himself for being too dark?

After thinking for a while, Cheng Xi said to Bai Sui and An An, who were playing on the side, "You two go to the kitchen and get me a pair of clean dishes and chopsticks, and a few eggs." ”

Cheng Xi looked at the pearl powder mixed with eggs, and said in his heart that it would be more perfect if there was milk, but unfortunately Cheng Xi did not find cows here.

Since Bai Sui and An An helped Cheng Xi take the dishes and chopsticks, they stayed by Cheng Xi's side with a curious face, and when Cheng Xi mixed a bowl of pearl powder and pasted it on his face, Bai Sui couldn't help but say, "Sister-in-law, I thought you got something to eat, but it turned out to be pasted on your face, it's too wasteful." ”

Cheng Xi was speechless, so these two stayed next to her for a long time, waiting for food?

Cheng Xi continued to paste her mask and waved at the two of them, "It's not your eggs to eat, you're still distressed, it's not too early, hurry up and find Aunt Cui to help you wash the hot water and go to bed early." ”

It's not delicious, the hundred-year-old An An left with a disappointed face, leaving Cheng Xi alone to paste his face against a basin of water, and when Aunt Cui came over, Aunt Cui was startled, and then saw Cheng Xi paste his face every night, and gradually calmed down.

Half a month has passed, but it really has some effect, many people and women will praise Cheng Xi for turning white, and the appearance is getting better and better, they all think that it is the credit of that Zhao Gongzi, of course, it is really Zhao Yan's credit, and the efficacy of the two boxes of pearl powder given by Zhao Yan is really first-class.

In mid-April, Cheng Xi didn't wait for Yu Zhaocai to help him find out about Xu Wenyu, but Xu Wenyu came over again, this time Xu Wenyu didn't bring Xu's family, but came over alone in a carriage with a few Yamen officers and soldiers.

Cheng Xi beckoned Xu Wenyu into the house, and gave Ah Wen a look, Ah Wen soon went to the private school and picked up Zhao Yan, the son of the Zhao family.

beckoned Xu Wenyu to come into the house and sit down, Xu Wenyu spoke first, "I heard that you have set up a private school in Lihua Village?" Why don't you inform me of such good things for the benefit of the country and the people? If I hadn't accidentally turned to the Yamen's record, I wouldn't have known about it. ”

Cheng Xi responded, "Thinking about such a trivial matter, I am afraid that the fourth uncle will be too busy, so I dare not disturb the fourth uncle." ”

Xu Wenyu replied with a smile, "Xi'er has learned to think about the fourth uncle, but she is a little busy these days, so she doesn't have time to come over to see Xi'er?" ”

Cheng Xi's ninja wanted to vomit, and responded, "Xi'er is doing well here, don't worry about the fourth uncle." ”

Xu Wenyu's eyes stared straight at Cheng Xi, "It's not been long since I saw you, but Xi'er has changed a lot." ”

Cheng Xi couldn't wait to step forward and buckle Xu Wenyu's eyeballs, lowered his head and didn't bother to speak again, Xu Wenyu thought that Cheng Xi was shy, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he reached out and patted the empty position next to him, "What do you always do standing, Xi'er come and sit here." ”

Cheng Xi felt even more disgusted, and couldn't help but want to shake his face and let people get out, this Ah Wen finally brought Zhao Yan over.

"Hey, Xi'er, are there any guests in this house?"

Cheng Xi breathed a sigh of relief, released his clenched fist, and said, "Well, this is Xu Sanlang's fourth uncle, come and take a look." ”

Zhao Yan let out an "oh", looked at Xu Wenyu at the table, and said with a gentle and elegant appearance, "It turned out to be Brother Xu's fourth uncle, I heard that it was the newly appointed county magistrate of Anyang County, and in Zhao Yan in Xiayue City, Lord Xu was polite." ”

Xu Wenyu has been sitting in his position since Zhao Yan entered the door, looking at the person who came, seventeen or eighteen years old, with a brocade robe, a fair and handsome face, at first glance, he came out of a big family, and he had a sense of nobility.

Only listened to the young man's self-introduction, Xu Wenyu instantly understood who this person was, after going back, Xu Wenyu still guessed in his heart, whether Cheng Xi was making it up blindly in order to refuse to go back to the county with him, how could the Zhao family go to such a remote place to hold a poetry club, seeing this person at this moment, even if he looks at his temperament, he knows that this person is the Zhao family.

After listening to Zhao Yan's introduction, Xu Wenyu stood up from his seat and responded, "Don't dare, don't dare, in front of Zhao Gongzi, there is a small local official, where can I afford Zhao Gongzi to call Lord Xu." ”

When Xu Sanlang Cheng Xi wanted to climb the Zhao family, Xu Wenyu inquired about the people of the Zhao family, and as soon as he heard Zhao Yan's name, Xu Wenyu knew that this young man was actually the son-in-law of the younger generation of the Zhao family, and the governor of Yuecheng, who was just his uncle.

Zhao Yan had a decent smile on his face, "Lord Xu is polite, Zhao Yan is just a civilian, so he should call Lord Xu." ”

Xu Wenyu saw that Zhao Yan insisted on calling him Master Xu, and he was not good at refutating, so he only lowered his body and said, "Zhao Gongzi is really polite, please sit here." ”

Cheng Xi looked at Xu Wenyu and Zhao Yan to deal with it, and finally didn't care about what happened to him, so he said, "The two of you will talk first, I'll go boil water and make tea for the two of you, and after speaking, you will run away." ”

And Xu Wenyu and Zhao Yan were still playing officially, "I didn't expect to meet Zhao Gongzi here, I don't know if Zhao Gongzi is in this Pear Flower Village?" ”

Zhao Yan smiled lightly and said, "I was fortunate to get acquainted with Brother Xu and his mother Cheng Xi, and I happened to know that this orchard, this season, is really a fairyland on earth, so I came to stay for a few days." ”

Xu Wenyu responded, "It's really fateful, I don't know how Zhao Gongzi got acquainted with his little nephew?" ”

Zhao Yan looked at Xu Wenyu with a smile, but the tone of his voice was a little more uncertain, "Why, Lord Xu seems to be particularly interested in how to get acquainted with Brother Xu?" ”

Xu Wenyu hurriedly smiled and responded, "I'm just curious, is there any interesting story in the acquaintance between Zhao Gongzi and his little nephew." ”
