The little girl didn't know how to cooperate, and Chen Youniao sighed secretly. But this is not surprising, they don't know each other in the first place, and normal people's first reaction will be vigilant and guarded. Next, I have to face two ill-intentioned men, I'm afraid there will be some trouble.

However, what he and the two men didn't expect was that the next moment, the little girl who was originally confused suddenly took a step, took a step forward, and called crisply: "Brother." Then he reached out and grabbed Chen Youniao's sleeve, as if the lost bird had found a home.

Seeing this, the two men glanced at each other and stopped their movements in unison. They are not afraid of Chen Youniao, but in broad daylight, there are people around the little girl, and it is difficult to start plundering, and the trouble will rise, and the gains outweigh the losses. had to glare at Chen Youniao viciously, and then turned to leave.

Chen Youniao breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and touched the little girl's head as a reward.

The little girl is actually not short, her long black hair is tied in a ponytail very casually, and in the face of Chen Youniao's affectionate movements, she subconsciously wanted to dodge, but somehow, she stopped again, a pair of big eyes flickered, confused, surprised, and some joy......

Chen Youniao didn't notice this, leaned down and asked, "Sister, what's your name?"

"Where is your home?"

"Where's your daddy?"

But no matter how she asked, the little girl was silent. If she hadn't called "brother" just now, she would have suspected that she was a mute.

This is really troublesome, whether to go, not to go, the little girl has been holding Chen Youniao's sleeve and not letting go.

In desperation, he had to take her back to the house first.

"Huh?"

After Wangcai told Uncle Wang the ins and outs, the old servant couldn't help but shout: The young master was looking for money, but he didn't think that the money was not found, but brought back a "sister". This is another mouth, and if you open your mouth, you have to eat, and it costs money to eat.

Uncle Wang has no opinion on the little girl, the problem is that the current situation in the family, increasing the population, is really unbearable.

However, the person has already been brought back, and Uncle Wang is not good at saying anything, besides, the little girl is really good-looking, and she is very smart, but she has a cold temperament, and she is only close to Chen Youniao, and everyone else is ignored. She is not the kind of resistance that she is autistic and afraid of, she is purely temperamental.

This kind of temperament is definitely not something that ordinary portals can raise. It's just that his clothes are ordinary, and there is no jewelry on his body, so he is pure and pure.

"Uncle Wang, you go out and inquire to see if there are any clues. ”

Chen Youniao commanded.

Uncle Wang went as ordered, although he left Haidai County for ten years, but the son of the Chen clan, who lived in this neighborhood since he was a child, returned to his hometown, had friends and acquaintances, and was relatively well-informed.

In the evening he returned, and did not hear anything about the little girl, but heard something big.

There is a war that has broken out!

There was a war between the three kingdoms in the dynasty, and the Fumeng Kingdom and the Zhongshan Kingdom joined forces to destroy the Qingqiu Kingdom!

At the dynastic level, this matter was extremely shocking, and the government and the opposition were shaken, and the impact was far-reaching. The news spread like waves, and the flying eagle scout that Chen Youniao met in the market today came to deliver the letter.

However, for the people of Haidai County, the rise and fall of the kingdom is none of their business, just to listen to the excitement.

Haidai County was not under the jurisdiction of the various kingdoms, it was directly under the Great Yin Dynasty.

When he heard the news, Chen Youniao also didn't pay attention to it, whether it was the Fumeng Kingdom, the Zhongshan Kingdom, or the Qingqiu Kingdom that was destroyed, they were equivalent to another world. At the moment, there is no understanding and no contact.

He is now more concerned about how to place the little girl.

The little girl looked like she was not close to anyone, and she refused to say her name, Chen Youniao asked her to live in the study first, and she sat there upright, not moving for a long time, as if she was settled.

There are no books in this study room at present, only a desk and a pair of four treasures of the study, plus a bed, you can sleep.

"Uncle Wang, don't you think this little girl is weird?"

In private, Wangcai pulled Uncle Wang and said.

Uncle Wang deeply agreed: "It is indeed different from ordinary people, there is an indescribable temperament, high and unapproachable." It's just unreasonable, if she really has to be expensive, how can she end up on the streets?"

The old servant couldn't think of a reason, so he didn't think about it anymore, anyway, the person was brought back by the young master, and if there was anything, the young master would deal with it.

Chen Youniao had a headache, about the little girl, he guessed a number of possibilities, but there was no conclusion, for the sake of today's plan, he could only leave the person at home first.

The little girl is very good, and at dinner, she only eats a small half bowl of rice and eats some green vegetables.

Seeing this, Uncle Wang was relieved, so he bought a puppy and came back to raise it.

The little girl didn't eat much, but she was sleepy, and went to bed early, and her sleeping position was curled up like a frightened shrimp. I don't know how much danger and fright she was subjected to in the process of displacement, so much so that she subconsciously shrank up when she slept, forming some kind of self-protection.

Chen Youniao went back to his room to practice his homework, and he drew a peace charm for the town house. Anyway, life has to be lived, money has to be earned, and tomorrow I will sell the two talismans on hand and exchange them for a sum of silver, which is enough to live a comfortable life.

Only draw one talisman, you can play with ease, your spirit is very good, and you will not be overdrawn on the same day, which is the right working state.

The next day, when he didn't have time to go out, Song Tianfu came again, with a smile on his face, unlike the previous two times when he came to the door, with a straight face, looking like who owed him money - then again, Chen Youniao did owe him money.

Chen Youniao said: "Rich boy, you came just in time, I want to sell talismans, do you have a way to introduce?"

Song Tianfu smiled and said, "It's just a talisman, just give it to me." ”

Chen Youniao coughed dryly: "That rich boy, I am short of money now and need cash, so this charm cannot be repaid for the time being." ”

Song Tianfu waved his hand: "See the outside, you pay off the debt slowly, don't worry, now I will give you the money of the talisman, according to the highest price in the market, six hundred taels." ”

Chen Youniao pondered for a moment: "It's good for you to give five hundred taels, but today I want to sell two, and last night, I drew another one." ”

Song Tianfu's eyes suddenly lit up: drawing talismans is not an easy job, and even formal Taoist priests are difficult to be productive. Although I don't know how much truth Chen Youniao's words are, but when I take out the talisman, it is the last word: "Okay, one thousand taels, I want them all." Also, Brother Chen, if you draw a talisman in the future, you can sell it to me, you have the final say on the price, and the price is absolutely fair. ”

Chen Youniao said: "I can only draw the town house peace charm, what do you want so many talismans of the same type?"

Song Tianfu smiled: "No matter what talisman is, it is a hot commodity on the market." Large families will always be in short supply. I don't have enough of this talisman at home. ”

Chen Youniao understands that a talisman is a consumable, even if it is not used, the mana on it will slowly evaporate with the passage of time, just like a town house peace talisman, put it for three years, basically have no mana, become a piece of waste paper;

Song Tianfu sighed: "Have you heard the news that Qingqiu was destroyed?"

Chen Youniao nodded and asked, "Does this matter have an impact?"

"The impact is great, as the saying goes, the whole body is involved, the current situation has made waves, the wind and clouds are stirring, who knows if there will be a big war? ”

Song Tianfu said frankly: "So, according to this situation, the price of talismans on the market will definitely rise." Of course, the market of the town house peace charm is here, up and down 500, 600 to the top. ”

Chen Youniao said with a smile: "Rich boy, I know that your price is fair, and your willingness to agree to the extension of the debt has solved my urgent need." I remember this favor. ”

Song Tianfu clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Brother Chen is really an understanding person, refreshing. From now on, don't call 'rich boy' again, and call 'Brother Tianfu' for face. ”

Chen Youniao thought of something and asked, "Brother Tianfu, do you know the teacher who teaches and writes articles?"

Song Tianfu was stunned: "You mean to teach and write official documents?"

The Dayin Dynasty, the imperial examination system, the examination is not written in the eight strands, but directly called the "official text", which is easy to understand, if you want to test your fame and win the official body, you have to enter the examination room to write the official text, and if you write it well, you can become an official.

Chen Youniao replied: "Exactly." ”

The clan refused to let him enter the clan school, and he didn't want to go to a general private school to study with a large group of children, so the best way was to find a skilled teacher privately and receive guidance.

Song Tianfu asked: "Who are you looking for this teacher for?"

Chen Youniao said: "I can't hide it, I want to find a teacher myself, I want to study, and take the imperial examination." ”

"What?"

Song Tianfu's little eyes widened, and he felt incredible. In his opinion, Chen Youniao is already a person with the hope of cultivating the Tao, as long as he becomes a Taoist priest and takes the degree, he will have a decent identity and have no worries about food and clothing, why did he suddenly say that he was going to study and take the exam?

Officialdom and dojo are two completely different areas, each with its own goodness. The problem is that you Chen Youniao have just shown some potential in the cultivation path, and suddenly go to study again, isn't that distracted and can't reach the shore at both ends?

"Brother Chen, which one are you singing?"

Chen Youniao said: "Walking on two legs is better than jumping on one leg, even if I can't cultivate the Tao in the future, I have another way to go." ”

Song Tianfu said: "The words are good, but you need to concentrate on doing things, if you are distracted, you are afraid that you will be empty-handed, but you will make a mistake." ”

Chen Youniao said: "I have made up my mind." ”

Song Tianfu couldn't help but roll his eyes, and he stopped persuading him. This matter has to be made by Chen Youniao to break into it by himself, and when he hits a wall, he will wake up with a bloody face.

After thinking about it, he said, "I know a great teacher." ”

Chen Youniao hurriedly said: "Please introduce Brother Tianfu." ”

Song Tianfu said with a smile: "This person has taught a lot of people, and there are even Jinshi, and he has a certain reputation in the county town. ”

Chen Youniao asked: "It's not easy to meet such a teacher." ”

"That's right, he has a lot of rules, he charges expensive, and he looks at people to take apprentices. To be his disciple, the first thing to look at is whether the characters are well written, and second, whether they are talented. Only by having both can he win his favor. Therefore, Brother Chen, if you want to apprentice, you must first write a work, which can be poetry, can be written, and it depends on your performance. ”

Song Tianfu introduced this person, with the intention of deliberately embarrassing Chen Youniao, so that he could retreat and concentrate on drawing talismans.

Unexpectedly, Chen Youniao listened, groaned slightly, and said, "Okay, I'll go and write, and I'll bother Brother Tianfu to wait for a while." ”

Song Tianfu listened, a pair of small eyes bulged: You can write if you say it, if you really doodle by hand, it can make people see it?

Is this youthful frivolity? or youthful ignorance!
