Chapter 41: Apprenticeship

Speaking of Lu Shixian, Xu Qingyang's face was once again flushed,

"Shixian, he, he's fine."

This sentence, coupled with Xu Qingyang's expression, Fang Rujun could also see that he must have liked it.

"It's a pity," Fang Rujun sighed, "He's not from the Great Zhou. ”

Xu Qingyang naturally knew about this relationship, and he was a little sullen in his heart, so he lowered his head and twisted his skirt with his hands, not making a sound.

Fang Rujun said again, "If Qingqing likes it, and the little son of the Lu family also has a friendship with you, it is not impossible for your grandfather and father to get married." ”

Xu Qingyang loosened it and found that the dress was a little wrinkled.

"If you can have a husband in the world, it will be very good. But I don't want to make my grandfather and father tired because of myself. ”

Looking at Xu Qingyang's sensible appearance, Fang Rujun was very pitiful,

"Silly boy, your grandfather and father love you so much, so they naturally hope that you can live a smooth life."

got Xu Qingyang's answer, Fang Rujun's goal was also achieved, so he got up,

"Okay, I'm not going to bother you anymore. I asked your father to talk about something, so I'll go first. Lan'er is small, but I still take care of it. If you have something in the future, don't be polite to your aunt, just come and pass the word. ”

Xu Qingyang nodded, "Got it, auntie." ”

Fang Rujun left with a smile, Mama Wang stood aside and listened to the conversation between the two, seeing that Xu Qingyang really liked Lu Shixian, she couldn't bear to make Xu Qingyang sad.

I secretly made up my mind in my heart that I would not deliberately target Lu Shixian in the future, so as not to embarrass Xu Qingyang.

In the library building, Xu Qi came down from upstairs and saw Wen Chenan studying, with a look of appreciation in his eyes. originally planned to go to see Wen Chen'an's progress, but unexpectedly found someone he didn't know.

Looking at Fu Siyu, Xu Qi seemed to see what he looked like when he was young, and he was like no one else.

Xu Qi deliberately passed by him, but Fu Siyu didn't notice it at all, and when he passed by again, Fu Siyu still seemed to be in a no-man's land.

At this time, Xu Qi suddenly had an idea, so he strode away.

Fang Rujun arrived at Qingyin Pavilion and found that there was a figure in front of him who was particularly familiar.

"Husband?"

Xu Qi turned his head and was stunned when he saw Fang Rujun, "Why is Madam here?" But what happened? ”

Fang Rujun stepped forward with a blank eye,

"Lan'er's illness is just better, what are you talking nonsense? I'm here to find my eldest brother, let's go in together. ”

Xu Qi saw that Fang Rujun was a little angry, and hurriedly shook her hand as if flattering. Before entering the door, he was let go by Fang Rujun.

"You two are here together? A-Yao, go to the kitchen to prepare a few dishes that my brother and daughter-in-law like to eat, and dinner will be eaten here. ”

Fang Rujun stopped Ruyao, "No need Ruyao, it's been more than half an hour since I left, if I go back late, Lan'er won't find me, I'll cry." Big brother, the two of us are not here today for the same thing, I will leave after I finish mine. ”

Seeing Fang Rujun's serious face, Xu Ling couldn't help but guess what was going on.

The younger sibling sat down and said.

At this time, Ruyao went to close the door to prevent others from disturbing her.

After Fang Rujun took a seat, he asked, "What kind of girl does the eldest brother think Qingqing is?" ”

Thinking of his daughter, Xu Ling felt a little joy in his heart, "Qingqing, well-behaved, sensible, and smart." In the past few years, I have never had a thing to worry about, but I am a little stubborn. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Qi also nodded, "Yes, I still remember the poems that Qingqing made when he was seven years old." has such talent at a young age, if she cultivates it well, she will definitely be a talented woman now, but this girl, if she doesn't write, she won't write. ”

"It seems that the eldest brother also understands Qingqing, so does the eldest brother know that Qingqing likes the little son of the Lu family?"

Ruyao was startled, looked at Lu Shixian, and subconsciously looked out of the door, and saw that the door was closed by herself, so she was relieved.

On the other hand, Xu Ling didn't care, "I naturally know this, the two of them have known each other since childhood, and they can talk about it." Not only the two of them, but also the relationship between Chen An and the others is good. ”

Fang Rujun had to sigh at the straight man's brain circuit, and shook his head helplessly,

"Big brother, what I like is the love between men and women."

This time, Xu Ling suddenly realized, "The love between men and women? ”

Seeing Fang Rujun's serious face, Xu Ling knew that there should be no fake.

"Since I have Lan'er, I can't be distracted, and I take a lot less care of Qingqing, it's my fault as an aunt. Today, Mama Wang, who was beside her, came to inform me that the two of us have a close relationship, I just went, and I also learned about Qingqing's favorite Lu family's little son. ”

At this moment, Xu Ling couldn't help frowning.

Now Lingjiang is the key to the competition for the throne, the current emperor Gao Li is critically ill, and the two major factions are constantly fighting, on the one hand, the ambitious King Hui, Gao, and on the other hand, the crown prince Gao Yuan.

Gundam is the son of the first emperor, and he is only five years behind Gao Yuan. There was a saying that Gao Li snatched the throne of Gundam and named Gundam as King Hui in order to block the eloquence of the Youyou.

As Gundam's strength grew, so did its ambitions. Recalling the letter between himself and Lu Mian, it is obvious that Lu Mian has decided to take refuge in Gundam. The outcome is unpredictable, and the solution of the Lu clan is unknown.

"Lingjiang's form will become clearer and clearer, if Brother Lu and I go our separate ways, it is not impossible to promote their marriage."

Fang Rujun and Xu Qi glanced at each other,

"Now that my eldest brother has an idea, then I am relieved. It's just a pity that if they are together, Qingqing will marry far away, and it will be difficult to see each other again. ”

Xu Ling's mood suddenly fell to the bottom, "If Qingqing likes it, I will never stop it." ”

Fang Rujun got up, "Big brother, my business is over, Lan'er should almost wake up, then I'll go back first." ”

"Okay, Ruyao sends her younger siblings out."

The two walked out of the room, and when they saw that there was no one around, Fang Rujun stopped,

"I know you treat these children as if they were your own, but after so many years, are you really innocent?"

Ruyao smiled slightly, "Isn't it good now?" ”

Fang Rujun looked at Ruyao, "Sister-in-law is virtuous and kind-hearted, and she has left a will to give you a name, what do you have to keep your heart." If you have this position, the marriage of these children may go faster. ”

"The talents of several sons are very good, and the marriage will not be bad. In a few years, Miss Lan'er will be older, and Mrs. will have to manage the Xu Mansion again, and there is nothing wrong with you being the housewife. ”

Looking at Ruyao's unsuccessful appearance, Fang Rujun felt angry,

"You, you, I shouldn't have believed your nonsense in the first place, and gave you the cold medicine. Qingqing, you should mention something by your eldest brother's side, the situation is unclear, don't plan too much. As for you, alas,"

After speaking, Fang Rujun left angrily.

Inside the house, Xu Qi talked about Fu Siyu he saw today,

"That kid, I look at my demeanor, what is the way it came from?"

Xu Ling smiled, "That person was brought back by Rong'er, and I have only met him once." But it should be nice to be praised by the two of you. ”

"In this way, you tell Rong'er that I plan to accept him as a student, and you ask him if he is willing."

Xu Ling looked at Xu Qi with a smile, "You accept someone as a student?" Do you accept people to go to your school, which is all childish, and learn the three outlines and five constants? ”

After speaking, Xu Ling couldn't help laughing.

Xu Qi didn't pay attention to it and got up, "Accept him, naturally be my only disciple." Within three years, I will definitely make him a famous bachelor in Jiankang City. ”

When the words fell, Xu Qi left domineeringly, leaving Xu Ling alone to reminisce.

Xu Ling naturally did not delay the things Xu Qi explained, and immediately sent someone to call Xu Rong. Hearing the news, Xu Rong was also happy for Fu Siyu, and went to tell Fu Siyu non-stop.

"Mr. Xu wants to take me as an apprentice!"

When Fu Siyu heard the news, he stood up excitedly.

Looking at Xu Rong nodding, the affirmative look let Fu Siyu know that this was not a dream. In the entire Xu Mansion, only Xu Qi is dedicated to studying academics, and if he follows him, he can learn more than he has read for more than ten years.

"Then when am I going to apprentice? Do you want to burn incense and bathe? What should I prepare for the apprenticeship? ”

Facing Fu Siyu's question, Xu Rong shook his head with a smile,

"No, although my third uncle is a literati, he doesn't like cumbersome etiquette, otherwise he wouldn't want to enter the officialdom. If you go over tomorrow morning, a cup of tea will be considered a ceremony. In the future, follow Sanbo, study hard, and don't let yourself down. ”

Fu Siyu took a deep breath, clasped his fists around Xu Rong's hands, folded them, and bowed deeply.

Seeing such a big gift, Xu Rong immediately got up, "Siyu, you,"

"Second son, I don't necessarily have to be a good horse, but there is no doubt that you are my Bole. And Shuncai, without you, I'm afraid that I would have gone back to the southern suburbs long ago, this worship, you are worth it. ”

Xu Rong patted Fu Siyu, "You have to thank yourself, no matter what situation you are in, you don't forget your original intention, if you don't have this quality, how can you let Shuncai notice you, if you don't know how to repay you, I won't appreciate you on the street that day." ”

Fu Siyu lowered his head, and tears fell unexpectedly. The so-called man has tears and does not flick, but he has not reached the sad place.

"Siyu, when I was a child, I always heard my father say that literati are strong, but they just know that they can't do it. Knowing that the world is difficult and people's hearts are unpredictable, but I want to solve the suffering of all beings.

Although the third uncle does not enter the officialdom, he is willing to use what he has learned all his life to teach the younger generations, and what he talks about is nothing more than the righteousness of the country. I don't know what you plan to do in the future, but I hope you can use your talents to bring stability to this troubled world. ”

Fu Siyu raised his head, his reddish eyes were full of firmness,

"Since I am a student of the Xu family, I will definitely not embarrass the Xu family."

After that day, Fu Siyu followed Xu Qi and followed him to teach children or attend tea parties among literati. The rest of the time, I followed Xu Qi to read all the famous works and listen to Xu Qi's teachings.

Beyond the silence, however, there was a raging war.

Pei Jiancheng was young and vigorous, and when he was celebrating the victory in the Northern Desert, he directly led two thousand light cavalry to destroy the military camp.

The people of the Northern Desert are good at drinking, and they think that they have given Pei Jiancheng a blow, and the other party will have to rectify it for at least a few days, so they carnival the wine.

When everyone heard the sound of horses' hooves, they saw a person riding a sweaty and bloody horse, holding a red tasseled spear in his hand, wearing armor, glowing slightly in the dark, and behind him was an elite cavalry.

Everyone was in chaos, and someone was on the way to the weapon, and Pei Jiancheng took off his head. In just half an hour, the entire army of the Northern Desert was annihilated, and the outermost border defense line was also breached.

Pei Jiancheng dismounted and took off his helmet, which was a heroic spirit that could not be concealed by sporadic bloodstains, with sharp edges and corners, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and there was a kind of surrendering hegemonic aura around his body. It's no wonder that Xiao Yuhua praised him.

"Shizi, it's been counted, and a large part of it is ours."

Pei Jiancheng snorted coldly, "If you steal something, you have to return it with your life." ”

Looking around, the anger in Pei Jiancheng's eyes dropped slightly,

"The corpse doesn't need to be buried, let them send reinforcements to deal with it, tell the brothers, if you think the weapon is good, you can take it if you want, and you don't have to hand it over today."

"Thank you, Shizi!"

Everyone cheered, and Pei Jiancheng got on the horse, "Hurry up, we have to rush back to Xixia before dawn." ”

"Yes!"
