Chapter 42: The Scholarly Door
The largest house in Peach Blossom Town is the Orange Mansion outside the local wealthy Orange Loyalty. The two stone lions at the door are majestic and solemn, a pair of lion eyes are blazing, and the two sharp front paws are also carved vividly. In the mansions of the children of these eunuchs, the pair of stone lions at the door can reflect the status and power of the master of the mansion, so the Orange Mansion is still very prominent here.
Walking into the red lacquered wooden door, crossing the high threshold, there is a large courtyard, here are spacious squares, in front of the square is the main hall. Everyone saw at a glance that in the hall, there was a sign hanging on the wall in front of it, and the four big characters of 'Scholarly Door' were written like dragons and snakes with a gold lacquer pen. There are also different scrolls of calligraphy hanging on the surrounding walls, although Bai Lang also likes it very much, but compared to these vassal and elegant people, it is still a small thing. Along the way, the two of them talked a lot with Cheng Yu, for poetry and songs, the subset of scriptures and history, they are all proficient in reading in their chests, and even some ghosts and strange stories, astronomical and geographical books, Cheng Yu actually knows a little bit about it, how big is his brain?
"I can't imagine that the orange boy is a real person who doesn't show his face! Bai admired. "Bai Lang's self-created trick to break the waves is based on a set of calligraphy, so he is also very familiar with these. And with his arrogant character, he rarely admires others, and he also admires the attainments of this teenage orange Yu, as if there is a feeling of having a thousand glasses of wine with a confidant.
"Mr. Bai is polite, compared to the little sister, Orange Yu is still far behind!" Orange Yu said to Bai Lang while instructing the maids to serve tea.
"Sister Orange, isn't it too exaggerated?" Bai Lang said in disbelief. Because during a detailed conversation with Cheng Yu on the road just now, I heard that his sister is just a teenage girl, and she can read more books than Cheng Yu, which is incredible.
"Mr. Bai, there is no exaggeration in the late life. The little sister Orange Ring has been smart and clever since she was a child, and since she can walk, she has asked the best private school teacher in the town to call her. However, the private school teacher had only been teaching for two years, and then he resigned, which made the whole family very strange. Later, I learned that my little sister was born with the ability to never forget, but I didn't expect that in just two years of hard work, I learned everything taught by the private school teacher. Cheng Yu picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip gently, and then said slowly.
"Yes, if there is such a skill in the world, then I want to see it. "The so-called world is big, there are no surprises, after hearing this, Lingbi on the side couldn't wait to meet this little girl, and said even more curiously.
"Miss Bai, my little sister is reading a book in the back hall, and I have already instructed Yahuan to go and change her. What I asked for today is related to my little sister. Since Cheng Yu had brought the two of them to the mansion, he no longer beat around the bush and said straight to the point.
"Orange Boy, don't you want me to teach the two of you?" Lingbi heard him say this, did he want to take her as an apprentice himself? But that girl is really as magical as Orange Yu said, although she has learned some in the Demon Dao, but even the best private school teacher in the town can't teach her, what can she do?
"Miss Bai misunderstood, I didn't mean this. The so-called tree is a big move, and the little sister's ability to never forget it soon spread throughout Peach Blossom Town, and it also attracted the attention of people in the government. That is, last month, after Shi Jian, the son of the mansion, found out, he came to the house to see the little sister in person, and saw that the little sister was born exquisitely cute, petite and good-looking, but a little beauty. I had to accept my little sister as a concubine, and I also took my father as a hostage, and I would come to ask for someone in a few days. Cheng Yu knew that he would be wrong, sighed again and again, and explained.
"What? There are such shameless people in the world, what a beast. After hearing this, Lingbi was furious in his heart, stomped his jade feet, and said angrily. When I remembered that I had just let go of that beast, I felt unhappy for a while, and I really wanted to kill that beast now.
"Orange Boy, do you want to ask us to rescue the Orange Staff?" Bai Lang had not spoken, and when he heard what he was asking for, he actually guessed something, so he asked.
"That's right, the so-called people don't fight with officials. My Orange Mansion has been here for a long time, and although there are some personal forces, I don't dare to offend these people in the official mansion. Seeing the skills of the two just now, they didn't seem to be afraid of the people in the government, so they begged the two to help. Afterwards, Orange Yu was willing to thank him with a lot of money. Cheng Yu remembered that his father was still in the government and was in prison, and his sister had to be sent to the fence. In the past few days, I have been running around everywhere trying to dredge up the relationship, but I have been repeatedly rejected. Disheartened, when I walked to the street, I happened to see the scene of Lingbi and Bai Lang teaching Shi Jian, as if I saw a life-saving straw, so I had to invite them to the house anyway. At this moment, Cheng Yu was kneeling on the ground, asking for help from the two, and said.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Suddenly, a young girl walked out of the back hall, wearing an orange dress and a cute and elegant little face, which can be said to be a little beauty embryo. On her chest, she wore a yellow jade ring with fine carving, which looked very dazzling. She walked up to everyone and looked at her brother kneeling on the ground, a little puzzled.
"Are you the Orange Ring?" Lingbi didn't expect a teenage girl to speak so calmly, with a mature temperament on her face that did not belong to her, but there was a look of horror in her eyes, and she still saw that she was a little girl. Lingbi liked her at first sight, so he greeted her.
"Hmm, who are you?" asked Orange Ring as he looked at the beautiful Lingbi, whose gentle tone seemed to melt ice and snow, before he slowly relaxed and asked.
"Xiaohuan, don't kneel down yet. These are the people I hired to rescue Daddy. Seeing that the little sister was still too young and so ignorant, Cheng Yu refused to rescue her father so as not to disturb the two, so she hurriedly scolded.
"Xiaohuan, I know it's wrong. Can you really save my Daddy, please save Daddy!" After hearing this, Orange Ring looked surprised, remembered what happened to Daddy, and listened to his brother's words, and then knelt down and begged.
"Silly boy, get up quickly! Aunt Bi will definitely rescue your father and give your family justice. Lingbi thought that if she wasn't there, what happened to this little girl would be unbearable. Hurriedly picked up the orange ring, held her in his arms, and cared for her carefully. Turned his head to look at Bai Lang on the side, as if he had something to say to him, but he only nodded, and did not speak.
"Orange boy, get up too! Bai Lang immediately understood Lingbi's meaning, helped Cheng Yu up, and promised. In fact, going to the government prison to save a person is as easy as finding a bag for Bai Lang.
"Then Cheng Yu has thanked Engong in advance, as long as Engong can rescue his father, Chengyu is willing to be a cow and a horse. Cheng Yu was excited, finally found the right person, knelt down again, and said.
"Orange Ring is also willing to serve you as a cow and a horse. Orange Ring glanced at Lingbi, as a young lady from a rich family, she had unusual trust and admiration for Lingbi, and she also made up her mind to say.
"You don't have to be polite. We don't want anything, please hurry up!" Bai Lang didn't expect this orange ring to be so backbone, and nodded with relief.
