Ying Xiaozheng reflected. He reflexively threw the grasshopper, but when he thought about it, it seemed really rude.

So, Ying Xiaozheng sincerely apologized: "Uncle Lin, I'm sorry." ”

Xun Jing pushed Lin Zhen who was blocking the front away: "He was just about to make a move against your uncle, and the revenge of the elders will be avenged." You did what you did in accordance with the etiquette and there is no need to apologize. ”

Ying Xiaozheng was confused. Yes, is that so?

Lin Xiangru couldn't help it, coughed a few times, and reminded Xun Guo not to bully his young son.

Zhu Xiang heard the coughing sound in the ox cart and asked Lin Zhen with his eyes.

Lin Zhen nodded to Zhu Xiang.

Zhu Xiang immediately put Ying Xiaozheng on his neck on the ground and asked, "What is the name of this old gentleman?" Thank you for defending my housekeeper. Zheng'er, thank you quickly. ”

Ying Xiaozheng glanced up at Zhu Xiang, and then thanked Xun Qian.

Xun Guo smiled so much that the folds on his face bloomed: "Good boy." ”

He took out a roll of bamboo slips from his arms: "This is a gift." ”

Ying Xiaozheng glanced up at Zhu Xiang again, and after Zhu Xiang nodded, he stretched out his hands to catch the bamboo slip given by Xun Xiang.

The bamboo slips were very heavy, and they pressed Ying Xiaozheng's arm to a heavy point.

Zhu Xiang hurriedly took the bamboo slip from Ying Xiaozheng's hand and said, "Such a generous gift, the old gentleman is polite." ”

He was suspicious. Meet and give books, isn't this old gentleman a person who travels to study in a hundred families?

Lin Zhen stepped forward and whispered, "This is Xun Qing of Confucianism. ”

Zhu Xiang didn't come back to his senses for a while, who the word "Xun Qing" refers to.

Lin Zhen said again: "I once served as a sacrificial wine in the Jixia School Palace. ”

Jixia School Palace, Confucian School...... The string in Zhu Xiang's mind was finally knotted, and his eyes widened suddenly, exactly the same as Ying Xiaozheng's expression when he was surprised: "Xunzi! ”

Ouch, my First Emperor! It is worthy of the first emperor cub! I met Xunzi the next day after I came! Is this the magnificent life of a person with great luck?

Zhu Xiang's eyes were shining.

Xun was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I still don't deserve the title of Xunzi." ”

Zhu Xiang immediately said: "If you deserve it, Mr. Xun can't deserve it, no one in this world deserves it." Mr. Xun saw that my housekeeper was talented and intelligent, and he had a heart of love? ”

This family business...... No, I admit this master and apprentice!

Zheng'er! Hurry up and hug your thighs! With Xunzi, what else do you want Li Si Han Fei Zhang Cang, you yourself are Li Si Han Fei Zhang Cang!

Xun Xiang was amused again by Zhu Xiang, who was overly flexible in his brain and was in a hurry to climb up before the pole was erected.

Lin Xiangru couldn't listen anymore, gritted his teeth and said, "Come up." ”

Zhu Xiang instantly calmed down, hung his head and picked up Ying Xiaozheng, and climbed on the ox cart.

Ying Xiaozheng maintained a posture of being held obliquely by his uncle, and there were big doubts in his little head.

What is my uncle doing?

Xun Jing laughed and climbed into the ox cart as well.

Lin Zhen sighed and resigned himself to catch the car.

The surrounding civilians and rangers laughed and dispersed.

They still don't understand that the person who keeps coughing on the ox cart must be the owner of this fiefdom, Lin Shangqing, the father of Lin Junzi.

I don't know what Lin Shangqing is looking for Zhu Xianggong, is it that King Zhao rewarded Zhu Xianggong again?

"Lin Lao, I was wrong!" Zhu Xiang climbed into the ox cart and began to admit his mistakes, no matter what his mistakes were, he would admit them first.

Lin Xiangru was choked by Zhu Xiang's clean confession, and his face turned blue, and he stretched out his hand to give Zhu Xiang's head melon seeds.

Ying Xiaozheng looked up at Lin Xiangru's hideous old face, and retracted the small fist he had just stretched out.

Xun Guo teased Ying Xiaozheng and said: "Zheng'er, why don't you defend your uncle this time?" ”

Lin Xiangru also looked at Ying Xiaozheng and wanted to know how Ying Xiaozheng answered.

Although Zhu Xiang knew that this was a test for Ying Xiaozheng by the elders, he still spoke: "Mr. Xun, Zheng'er is not yet two years old. ”

Xun Jing blinked in surprise, and his voice was raised: "You are not yet two years old?" ”

Although Ying Xiaozheng didn't know why the adults mentioned the first birthday, he understood the difference between the first year and the age, and said: "Well, I will be two years old on the second day of the first month of next year." ”

Xun Guo gasped: "Speak so clearly before you are two years old?!" ”

Zhu Xiang said proudly: "Some children talk early, and some children walk early. My housekeeper is a very early speaker and very smart! ”

Xun Guo asked: "You have only raised him for the second day, why do you love him so much?" ”

Ying Xiaozheng's body stiffened, and his little hands involuntarily clenched Zhu Xiang's robe.

Zhu Xiang said with a smile: "I told Lin Li before that my nephew Uncle Xiao was not joking, he really looks very similar to me, and I like him when I see him." What's more, my housekeeper is smart and sensible, who doesn't like it? Just now, the group of rangers just saw Zheng'er, so they made toys for Zheng'er, which shows that they also like Zheng'er very much. ”

Ying Xiaozheng's face turned pale: "I lost my toy!" ”

"Here." Zhu Xiang acted like a trick and took out a bunch of straw toys from his cuffs. Including the grasshopper that Ying Xiaozheng took to throw Lin Zhen, he didn't know when he picked it up.

Ying Xiaozheng held the pile of straw toys, and his eyes smiled like crescent moons.

Xun Guo looked at Ying Xiaozheng who was crooked and crescent-eyed, and then looked at Zhu Xiang who had a loving smile on his face, with a thoughtful look on his face.

"The old man returned home from a study trip, but found that his hometown was difficult to find and there was nowhere to stay. In order to avoid distractions, Lin Shangqing wants me to live in your house temporarily, are you willing? Xun Guo opened his mouth and lied repeatedly.

Lin Xiangru's eyelids jumped violently when he heard this, but he didn't break through Xun's condition, and nodded: "He is not in good health, you can help him take care of it." ”

Zhu Xiang immediately arched his hand and said, "No." Although my home is simple, but the food is first-class delicious, Mr. Xun, please rest assured to live in my house, my home is Mr. Xun's home! ”

Zheng'er, the thigh is sent to the door, hurry up and pounce!

Chapter 9 Mutton soup and steamed buns

People who know what the real antiquity is like, no one wants to travel back in time.

But when you come here, you still have to find some fun for yourself, otherwise you won't be able to muster the courage to live in this era. "Trucks" are one of the greatest pleasures that travelers can find.

Zhu Xiang is now "collected" to the "Xunzi" sage card, and he is so happy that he wants to pick up his nephew and turn around twice.

But there was a Lin Xiangru in the carriage who glared at him with disgust, and he didn't dare.

Zhu Xiang gave Lin Xiangru a flattering smile, and then behaved more well-behaved than Ying Xiaozheng, who was a little sleepy.

Ying Xiaozheng yawned with a small fist covering his mouth, and secretly glanced at his uncle with a calm and well-behaved expression.

Although they have only known each other for two days, Ying Xiaozheng is also sure that his uncle's expression is definitely pretended.

Zhu Xiang has been paying attention to Ying Xiaozheng. When Ying Xiaozheng yawned, he adjusted his sitting posture: "Sleep, I'll wake you up when it's time for dinner." ”

Zhu Xiang stretched out his hand to cover Ying Xiaozheng's eyes, covering the light for Ying Xiaozheng.

The corners of Ying Xiaozheng's mouth bent unconsciously, turned over to face Zhu Xiang, leaned on Zhu Xiang's arms, curled up on Zhu Xiang's legs, and closed his eyes.

When the two old men saw this scene, they couldn't help but breathe lightly.

Lin Xiangru stroked his pale beard, and there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

With Zhu Xiang's love for his nephew, if his nephew returns to Qin, Zhu Xiang will probably go back with him.

Lin Xiangru knew that Zhu Xiang was a bit stupid, and anyone with a little heart could hold him. If he tied up Zhu Xiang with kindness, Zhu Xiang would definitely stay in Zhao State and continue to be his guest.

But it was precisely because Lin Xiangru saw Zhu Xiang so thoroughly that he couldn't do such a thing as tying up Zhu Xiang with kindness.

Xun Guan glanced at Zhu Xiang, who was looking at the little nephew in his arms with loving eyes, and then glanced at Lin Shangqing, who estimated that he didn't realize how loving he was looking at Zhu Xiang's eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He turned his gaze out the car window, no longer looking at the warm and sad scene.

When Zhu Xiang returned home, Xue had already slaughtered a little lamb.

Cai Ze actually waited at home early. When Zhu Xiang entered the door with his sleeping nephew in his arms, he also raised the jar with meat sauce that Zhu Xiang had brought from Zhu Xiang's cellar.

"You're deaf and clear-sighted." Zhu Xiang said with a smile.

Cai Ze nodded to Zhu Xiang: "Of course." ”

He got up and bowed respectfully to Xun Jing.

When Lin Zhen drove the ox cart to Zhu Xiang's house slowly, he had already sent someone to inform Xue in advance to prepare food for the sake of appetite.

With such a big movement, Cai Ze also got the news. He hurriedly put down the scroll in his hand and ran to Zhu Xiang's house to wait to meet with the former Jixia School Palace.

Xun Guo has been a sacrificial wine for so long, and has lectured with countless students, so he naturally will not dislike Cai Ze's appearance.

Cai Ze respectfully presented the tea made from the dried dates of Zhu Xiang's family to Xun Qian, and brought the freshly crisp dates that had just been picked by Zhu Xiang's family after washing.

Xun Kuang accepted the jujube brought by Cai Ze's tea, and then took the wooden tablet that Cai Ze was holding in both hands, opened the wooden tablet and looked at it slowly.

Cai Ze sat in front of Xun Jing in a proper manner, as if he was facing his teacher to check his homework.

Zhu Xiang asked Ying Xiaozheng to take a nap in the room, freshen up a little, and when he changed his clothes and returned to the courtyard, he saw that the atmosphere in the courtyard was solemn like a school.

He felt the urge to turn around and leave.

Lin Zhen kept glancing at Zhu Xiang and asked Zhu Xiang to hurry over and share weal and woe with him.

Lin Xiangru took out a ruler from his cuff and knocked Lin Xiangru on the head with a "click".

Zhu Xiang no longer hesitated, immediately turned around and left, and went to the kitchen to cook himself.

It's not that he doesn't want to share weal and woe with Lin Zhen and face the serious Lin Lao and Xun Lao together, but today there is a distinguished guest at home, and he has to cook himself to show respect.

Lin Li, you ask for more blessings!

After coming to the kitchen, Xue, who was directing the servants to rub salt on the sheep, said curiously: "Why is the beloved here?" Don't you accompany your nobles in the vestibule? ”

Zhu Xiang said: "There are noble guests as guests, of course I have to cook for them personally." Snow, you go to the vestibule and accompany them. ”

Xue didn't doubt him, nodded and said, "Okay." I took some dried red dates concocted by my lover a few days ago and soaked them in them, and then took some fresh dates to eat. ”

Zhu Xiang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Cai Ze has already turned against the guest and helped us soak the dried dates and wash the crispy dates." ”

Xue Xian was stunned, then covered her mouth and chuckled: "Mr. Cai is not an unkind person like Xia Tong, it seems that the distinguished guest who came here this time must be unusual." I'll have some more rice steamed. ”
