Saying goodbye to Fan Lao at the gate of Huaiming Mansion, Situ Xi swayed slowly towards his home on the street, he still had some doubts about the matter of Hua Shaoying, remembering that Fan Lao had said that she was the head of Jinsefang.

But after all, Jinsefang is just a small folk music organization, how did she know the information of most of the dignitaries in Xuan'an City, it seems that this flower is not as simple as he thinks.

However, if she really has the news of these powerful people in her hands, maybe she should take the time to contact her, just as she asked Fan Lao to ask for poetry last time......

"Yes, shopkeeper, this candied fruit will also serve me a plate......"

As he was walking with his head down, Situ Xi suddenly heard an extremely familiar voice from the shop on the side, and he hurriedly turned his head to look at the small shop selling preserved fruits.

Sure enough, an old man in a collared robe was talking to the proprietor in the shop, and his representative dense long beard made Situ Xi instantly recognize him, which was the old Taoist priest who had told his fortune before.

It can be seen that he is dressed today, neither wearing his shabby Taoist robe nor holding a wooden sword, but wearing a relatively high-end regular clothes, and carrying a bundle of books in his hand.

Is this time to develop a new career?

Situ Xi felt that he had a good relationship with this old Taoist priest who could speak well, and now that he had met him again, he should go and say hello to him.

Thinking of this, Situ Xi turned his steps and also entered this preserved fruit shop.

"There is also this kind of carving, bring me a copy too."

"Okay, guest officer!"

The old Taoist priest was holding his hands behind his back at the moment, his face was ruddy, and it seemed that he had recently encountered some happy events, and the shopkeeper of this preserved fruit shop was also smiling, and with a smiling face, he was taking some candied fruit from the fruit bowl for him and putting them in a bag.

However, just as the old man took the candied fruit and was about to take the money from his bosom to pay, a somewhat familiar chuckle appeared in his ears, and his right hand suddenly stiffened.

"Daoist, where have you made your fortune lately? Why don't you stop doing that fortune-telling business, people can't forget their roots. ”

Turning his head stiffly, he saw Situ Xi's appearance clearly, and the old Taoist priest instantly recognized him, this is the son-in-law who exposed him a few days ago, and he is really a narrow family.

"Childe, it's you. This...... That's a coincidence, isn't it...... Childe wants to buy some preserved fruits to go back? I just finished buying it, old man, please please, I still have something to do, so I'll go first. After saying this, the old Taoist priest prepared to turn around and flee.

"Eh, Dao Chief, you haven't settled the bill yet." Situ Xi grabbed him as soon as he could, this old Taoist priest wouldn't want to escape the order.

"Oh yes, look at my memory." The old Taoist priest patted his head, took out a broken silver from his arms, and handed it to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, these should be enough, right?" ”

"That's enough, officer, I'm going to get you change." The shopkeeper picked up his small scale and weighed the silver in two, and smiled again and again to exchange some copper coins for the old Taoist priest.

"Dao Chief, why do you have some books in your hands?"

While the two of them were settling the bill, Situ Xi stood aside and looked at the bundle of books in the old Taoist's hand, all of which were reading materials for children's enlightenment.

"Childe, some of the old descendants have reached the age when they should study, so I will buy some books for them to see, I really have something urgent today, let's talk next time!"

After saying this, the old Taoist priest hurriedly turned around, walked away from the store as if he were fleeing, and blended into the crowd on the street.

"Guest officer, you have to buy some candied fruit and go back, these tastes are all good......" The shopkeeper saw the old Taoist priest leaving, and hurriedly came to Situ Xi's side to sell it.

Situ Xi looked down at the preserved fruits in the basket, pondered for a while, looked at the street, found the figure of the old Taoist priest, and chose to follow.

……

In a dilapidated alley in the west of the city, the old Taoist priest carried a large bag in his hand, he bypassed several detours, came to the door of a wooden house, turned around to make sure that no one followed, he knocked lightly on the wooden door with the back of his hand.

"Mr. Luo, it's me, Yun Lao'er."

As the old Taoist priest's voice fell, the wooden door was opened from the inside, and a middle-aged man in a Confucian robe in his thirties and forties showed his head, holding a book in one hand and a door bolt in the other, and walked into the courtyard with a surprised face.

"Mr. Yun, why are you back again? Didn't you say you'd be out for a few days? ”

"When I left in the afternoon, I just remembered that the children might lack some books to practice reading and writing, so I went to the bookstore to buy some, and on the way I saw a preserved fruit shop, which I just bought to satisfy the hunger of these little guys."

"Thank you for your trouble, it's a blessing for these students to meet you."

The middle-aged man known as Mr. Luo shook his head with some emotion, he was just a down-and-out scholar a few days ago, and there was only this old house left in the house, with four walls, and it was even a little difficult to have a full meal.

But the old man found him a few days ago, and was willing to hire him as a teacher to teach some of the poor children around him to read and write, and promised to pay for the children's tuition every month, and bring them some food from time to time.

"Grandpa Yun!" A crisp call sounded from the courtyard, Yun Laodao looked intently, and found that the owner of the voice was a small boy who was not tall, and he recognized it at a glance.

This child's surname is Fu Mingshan, I remember that he is a very spiritual child, and when he came, he saw his parents turning rice in the sun, and now it is actually time to return home from class, why is he still here.

"He's very studious, and he's staying to ask me some questions I don't understand."

Seeing Yun Laodao looking at the kid with a puzzled face, Mr. Luo immediately explained to him with a smile.

So that's the case, Yun Lao Dao also showed a hint of a smile, this diligent child made him feel that everything he did was meaningful, and he hurriedly waved to him.

"Brother Shan, come and taste this candied fruit, you still need to be relaxed in reading."

The elders are indispensable, and it is disrespectful.

After Fu Shan respectfully held a few fruits and retreated to the side, Yun Laodao thought for a while at this time, he looked around the environment around the wooden house, and suddenly made up his mind, looking up at the scholar surnamed Luo in front of him.

"Mr. Luo, I have also observed your teaching for a long time in the past few days, and I think it is very good, and there are many children around Fu Shan who are talented but can't afford to pay the tuition. You will be the leader of the mountain. ”

……

"Your Highness, why are you here?"

In the west of Xuan'an City, Situ Xi was taking steps to return home from this lane, but he didn't expect to meet Mu Juzheng at the corner.

At this time, he was carrying a package in one hand, and a fainted man on his shoulder, humming a little tune and walking towards the city.

"I should have asked you, what is the matter with this man?" Situ Xi has a black line, and the one Mu Juzheng is carrying on his shoulders seems to be about two hundred catties, he is so relaxed at the moment, it seems that he is really as powerful as he said.

"In the morning, I heard that His Royal Highness went to the Guogong Mansion, so I thought about going out for a walk, and then met this group of people, they seemed to want to teach a certain lesson, and I didn't know anyone in Xuan'an, so I should have come for Your Highness."
