"What do you want to learn from my uncle today?" Xie Zhimian raised his hand and slowly handled his political affairs, and asked.

Lu Jinnian hesitated: "Jinnian wants to ask my uncle how to be a good official for the country and the people." ”

After all, over the years, Xie Zhimian, as the person behind the management of Jade City, has been praised by all the people.

Hearing this, Xie Zhimian raised his head coldly.

Lu Jinnian's face was straight, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his facial features were smart, Xie Zhimian pondered for a moment, and then said, "Have you thought about it?" ”

As soon as he entered the officialdom, he was as deep as the sea, and since then he has been entangled in shackles and is no longer free.

The words "country and family" still need to be carefully considered.

But he didn't want Lu Jinnian to be very sure, he nodded and said, "Uncle, Jinnian will definitely study hard this year and strive to gain fame!" ”

"Can you discuss this with your eldest sister?" Xie Zhimian frowned.

Lu Jinnian raised his hand to compose a compilation, and said in a deep voice: "Jinnian, as the son of his mother, wants to personally tell her his true thoughts afterwards. ”

Xie Zhimian still had a good impression of Lu Jinnian, and he was very satisfied with what he said.

"You should first familiarize yourself with the Four Books and the Five Classics, and study your knowledge in the academy. If you are not even able to solve this most preliminary test, what you are talking to me today is just a talk on paper. ”

Lu Jinnian knew that Xie Zhimian had decided to help him, so he got up gratefully, knelt down and thanked: "Uncle Xie helped Jinnian, if Jinnian's dream comes true in the future, he will definitely thank him again." ”

The thank-you here is certainly not a bribe. Xie Zhimian knew that officialdom was sinister, how could he not even hear the deep meaning of these words.

It's just that Lu Jinnian is only fifteen or sixteen years old now, and if he wants to succeed in what he wants to do, the process will definitely not be easy.

But this kid is a seedling of being a good official.

The facial features are upright, the righteousness is awe-inspiring, the face is like a crown of jade, if you wear an official hat, you must have an extraordinary temperament.

Xie Zhimian looked at Lu Jinnian on the ground with appreciation, got up and hurriedly helped him up, "You're welcome." ”

Lu Jinnian was also very excited in his heart, after all, his brother-in-law has been an official for decades, and the experience and experience in officialdom will only be more and not less, if he teaches himself how to be a good official and how to work hard, Lu Jinnian feels that he will definitely live up to his time and himself.

Like his uncle, he can also have the ability to protect his family. to contribute to the development of Chu State.

Thinking of this, Lu Jinnian only felt that his body was hot.

The two sat at the table and drank a few glasses under the moonlight, Lu Jinnian knew that he would work harder after tonight, so he reluctantly said goodbye to Xie Zhimian and walked to the bedroom.

Xie Zhimian drank an average amount of alcohol, and after a few drinks, his face turned slightly red, and he looked at the moon hanging high in the sky, and his eyes became more and more obscure.

In the early morning of the next day, the birds were chirping, the fog was filled, Xie Mian was wearing a mink cloak, a pair of round eyes were stunned to feel the warmth of the sun on his body, two hands holding on to the pillar, a little surprised in his heart, the sky that was still snowing and whistling in the wind a few days ago was so clear.

Agarwood hugged the small stove on the side, and said angrily: "Although it is sunny this day, it is still cold in the end." ”

"Yes, but it's winter, how can the weather warm up so easily." Xie Mian said stunned.

Seeing that she looked a little stunned, Agarwood was a little puzzled: "Miss, are you feeling unwell?" ”

After speaking, Xie Mian was inexplicably stunned again, and when he saw Agarwood suddenly asking, he immediately replied: "Agarwood, I'm fine." ”

She just suddenly remembered Wei Ran.

remembered the snowy night when she just walked in and delivered ointment to Wei Ran.

Obviously, the young man was still vicious like a wolf in a snowy night, and his eyes were staring at her with green light. But because of the sudden accident, his attitude towards her was as gentle as that of an adult wolf king to a newborn cub.

She had finally mustered up the courage to ask for an answer yesterday, but he gave her a casual answer in a playful way.

She didn't want her life to end up miserable.

Xie Mian sighed, secretly saying that in the world of this book, wanting to live peacefully is just a luxury.

Seeing that her young lady looked preoccupied, Agarwood was also a little uncomfortable.

But she didn't know why the young lady was like this, so she couldn't find a place to comfort her.

Hey, that's right!

Agarwood suddenly remembered, isn't her own lady the closest to the little master? Didn't you see that the little young master hadn't come to visit her in the past few days, and she was secretly sad in her heart alone?

After pondering for a while, the situation in the past few days was indeed like this, and Agarwood quietly took advantage of Xie Mian's inattention and immediately ran out.

In the courtyard, beside the well-made bed, sat a woman who seemed to know the destiny of heaven.

Her face was haggard, the wrinkles on her face were almost as deep as ravines, the tears on both sides of her cheeks had not yet dried, and the clothes she was wearing were also crumpled, and the material was not so good at first glance.

I saw the woman tremblingly raise her hand, pick up the porcelain spoon and scoop out a spoonful from the medicine dish containing the black medicinal juice, and slowly scoop it into the pale mouth of the boy on the bed.

"Nurse Lady...... I, I don't want to drink ......"

The boy lifted his eyelids with difficulty, and said a word with his lips open weakly.

The nurse couldn't help but shed a few tears in her eyes, but the movements in her hands were tight, "Little master, if you don't drink medicine, how can your body stand it." ”

Xie Zhi felt that this medicine was really bitter.

Didn't he just forget to wear a cloak a few days ago because he was too worried about his sister, and after seeing his sister for a while, he was driven back by his grandmother, and then after a night, he also fell ill.

Just the day before yesterday, he heard that his sister had recovered from her illness, and he was happy in his heart. I wanted to go to my sister, but I forgot that I was sick too.

Xie Zhi, who had resisted the medicine for a few days, finally compromised and asked the nurse to feed himself medicine.

But it's really bitter.

When Agarwood came to the door, she saw the nurse outside the window feeding the little master medicine.

She couldn't help but be slightly surprised, the little young master was also sick?

It's really not to blame Agarwood, because she has been busy with Xie Mian in the past few days, and because Xie Zhi's courtyard is far away from Xie Mian, except for Xie Zhimian to visit Xie Zhi, not many people know about Xie Zhi's illness.

As if hearing the movement from outside the door, the nurse stopped feeding the medicine, and her eyes tightened, "Who?" ”

Agarwood hurriedly stepped forward and knocked on the door and replied, "I am the maidservant girl in the young lady's yard, Agarwood." ”

Hearing that it was agarwood coming, the nurse hurriedly stepped forward to open the door. Even Xie Zhi, who was originally lying on the bed, heard that it was agarwood coming, and his eyes became shining.

"Ahem, ahem...... Agilawood? Xie Zhigang swallowed the medicinal juice and said, "Sister...... Is she here? ”

Seeing his hoarse voice, Agarwood couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"Miss, she ......"

Seeing that Agarwood was embarrassed, Xie Zhi thought that something had happened to Xie Mian, and said busily: "Sister, what's wrong with her?" I'm not sick again. ”

The originally lifeless person suddenly came to life in an instant.

Agarwood was a little moved for a while, moved by the deep sisterhood of Xie Mian and Xie Zhi.

"Miss, she is much better now, it's just that because there have been a lot of things recently, Miss didn't come to see the little master, but don't worry, don't worry, I'll call the young lady to come and see you later, and prepare some food by the way."

Hearing this, the nurse was grateful.

After all, she wanted to call the young lady over in the past few days, but who knew that Xie Zhi would not let go of her agreement.

And she also inquired about Xie Mian's current physical condition, which is indeed not troublesome.

When Xie Zhi heard this on the bed, he couldn't help but feel a little sour in his heart.

On weekdays, my sister heard that he was sick and came early, but today I only saw agarwood, not her.

Agarwood also saw Xie Zhi's appearance in his eyes, hesitated for a moment, then turned around and ran towards the boudoir.

The nurse was surprised, "Agarwood, what's wrong?" ”

"Slave go find Miss!"

Agarwood put down this sentence and walked faster.

Xie Mian was looking at the snow in the courtyard, and just wanted to turn around and tell the agarwood something, but he looked left and right, but there was no one.

I couldn't help but be a little puzzled, "Wasn't it still like this just now?" ”

Shen Xiang panted and trotted from Jingyuan, and when he saw the way the young lady looked left and right, he immediately knew something, and chuckled: "Miss! ”

Hey?

Xie Mian looked up.

Seeing the agarwood smiling like a flower from far to near, Xie Mian was stunned, and was about to speak, but he didn't want the agarwood to speak first.

Agarwood's cheeks were slightly red, her little hands tugged at her dress, and she panted: "Miss, the little master has a cold, should we go and see him?" ”

What? Xie Zhi also got a cold?

You must know that Xie Zhi did not feel the cold in the original book? Xie Mian, who was still thinking of going to his grandmother to talk about Wei Ran's residence in the side courtyard, was stunned, and the expression on his face was unpredictable.

After hesitating for a moment, Xie Mian said, "Take me there." ”

"Okay." Agarwood also sensed the hesitation of the young lady. But before she remembered that if the young master fell ill or something, the young lady was always the first to visit.

Why are you still hesitating today? Agarwood was very surprised.

But Agarwood didn't dare to ask, after all, it wasn't her business.

I don't know how long it took, Xie Mian finally came to the door of Jingyuan.

The nurse didn't close the door tightly, so Xie Mian easily pushed the door open and walked in.

The nurse raised her head in shock by this sudden sound, and when she saw that it was Xie Mian, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Miss is here." ”

Xie Zhi, who was lying on the bed and sleeping lightly, heard a sound of opening the door in a daze, but he didn't pay much attention, but as soon as he heard the word "Miss" said by the nurse, he immediately opened his eyes.

Xie Mian was standing next to the bed at the moment, his round apricot eyes staring at him like this.

Xie Mian didn't know why he was a little blocked in his heart, because he traveled to the book, except for the conversation with this younger brother on the first day, the rest of the time seemed to be murdering him.

A little guilty.

Seeing his sister coming, Xie Zhi finally had the strength to sit up and lean on the side of the bed.

"Sister, are you feeling better?" It's just that after feeling the cold for a few days, Xie Zhi's complexion is completely different from when Xie Mian first saw her before.

When he heard that his first concern was actually his body, Xie Mian's eyes moistened in an instant, "Sister is fine, Xiaozhi, why did you provoke the wind and cold for no reason?" ”

Originally, there was no much grievance, but when Xie Mian asked, Xie Zhi actually felt a little wronged.
