Chapter 2 The Public Losing House
At the end of the day, the three or five students traveled to the prosperous place of Gyeonggi together, which was indeed a smooth taste of the world. Xie Yu returned to his residence in Luoyi in the crowd of classmates, he stood outside the door of the mansion, and did not rush in, and after bidding farewell to his classmates, he stood up proudly, tightened his green gown, untied and tied the long sword at his waist, sorted out the two groups of white jade he was wearing, and determined that his horns were on the right, and the palace feather was on the left. When everything was in order, he motioned for the two servants in front of him to open the door of the house. Entering the mansion, Xie Yu calmed down and walked in the court, the white jade on his waist also fluttered with his pace, and the servants who cleaned the courtyard also raised their heads to salute him according to the sound of the jade song.
In a few moments, he entered the outer hall, where a child was kneeling on the ground and seriously tinkering with a few fine wood knickers. Seeing this, Xie Yu stopped and observed the child's actions with interest. The child was disassembling a wooden kite in his hand, removing the wings and head of the kite, and disassembling the mortise and tenon of the kite's torso to reveal the internal structure of the kite, and then he put down the kite and began to disassemble another wooden tool. He picked up a gear that originally belonged to the wooden kite of the model and embedded it in the wooden kite, and put together some wooden parts that originally belonged to other ingenuity on the wooden kite one by one. By the time he stopped, he was already sweating, but he didn't seem to have any intention of stopping, just taking a break. After carefully observing the wooden kite that had been reassembled by him for a while, he shook his head, disassembled the parts on the wooden kite one by one, and re-selected the parts and re-spliced them. Xie Yu also saw God unconsciously, and he didn't even hear the call outside the door.
"Kite, kite, you are here, let me find it. Just as the children were about to carry out a new round of splicing, a woman dressed in navy blue curled clothes appeared in front of the hall door, she wiped a little sweat from her forehead with a brocade silk, walked into the hall with a proper demeanor, and rubbed the child's hair dotingly. "Ziqi Shizi, you are also here. The woman was a little happy to see Xie Yu, her right hand was outside, and she smiled and waved to Xie Yu.
"I just came back from the academy, and I can see that the kite slave is clever and clever, but I have lost my etiquette, so I ask the lady to forgive me. It wasn't until the woman called Xie Yu's name that Xie Yu suddenly came back to his senses, was a little annoyed, and replied to the woman.
"The scholar is worried. The woman picked up the child sitting on the ground, brushed the dust off his body and said to Xie Yu. "How long has the kite-slave been playing here, do you know?"
"I came back just in time, and I saw that the kite slave had already begun to fiddle with the wooden kite, and it wasn't long before I thought about it, most likely it should be... Soon. Xie Yu groaned slightly, and after a little thought, he squeezed out this sentence.
"The scholar is so learned that he can't even remember the hour. The woman covered her mouth and smiled, her eyes curled into crescent moons.
"Ke Ziyun: Yi Qiu, the good game of the whole country. One of them concentrates on listening, but the other listens, and the other thinks that a great bird is coming, and thinks of the bow and shoots it. Although he learned from it, he could do it. Xie Yu paused. "I've watched the kites fiddle with them here, and I've gained a lot of talent, how can the lady say that I can't remember the time?"
"The scholar has gained a lot, and the concubine is happy, and the scholar should not be blamed. When Mu Yao heard Xie Yu's defense, she smiled even more happily. "Anyway, how was the Shizi's class exam today?"
"Naturally, it's first-class. Speaking of returning to the class exam, Xie Yu changed his embarrassed expression just now and said indifferently. "You can't argue with me. Xie Yu added.
"Oh, I heard that Gongsun Gong of the Gongsun family has few opponents in the Luoyi debate. Gong Mu Yao put away his smile and was slightly curious.
"It's in vain. Xie Yufeng replied calmly, forgetful.
"Then I would like to congratulate the scholar. Gong Yi Mu Yao saw that Xie Yu was starting to be a sage in front of people, and he couldn't help but laugh. "Please move to the inner hall, dinner is about to come. ”
"Ms. Gong, please. Hearing this, Xie Yu made a gesture of please.
Then Mu Yao would be respectful and might as well obey his fate. Gong Mu Yao took the child's hand and instructed his subordinates to clean up all the carpentry parts scattered on the ground, and then took the lead out of the outer hall, followed by Xie Yu.
Go up the stairs and enter the middle hall, erect a big tripod in the center of the hall, the banquet is distributed on both sides of the middle hall, the chairman is unmanned, it is the master here who has not yet returned home. Xie Yu changed his shoes and walked to his own place to sit quietly and wait for dinner. It didn't take long for the banquet in the hall to be filled one after another, and the chairman was still empty.
"The host is not coming back, let's start dinner. As a woman in a dark curl spoke, the dishes were brought one by one by the servants. The staple food is wheat, and there are preserved soup, chicken soup, and plum in turn, although the food is not luxurious, but it is also luxurious.
In the dining room, no one spoke, and the sound of chewing could not be heard, and when everyone had finished their dinner, the woman in Xuanyi was the first to speak.
"Ziqi, how are you doing in class today?" The woman sat in the banquet and looked at Xie Yu with a kind face.
"Back to Auntie. Xie Yu stood up and bowed to the woman. "First class. ”
"He is really a talented Yandi, worthy of your father's careful cultivation. The woman listened to Xie Yu's answer, laughed and praised.
"Naturally, I want to thank my uncle and aunt for their kindness to my nephew, and get the kindness of my uncle and aunt, so that I should remember it for a thousand years. Xie Yu lowered his head and lowered his hands.
"Good, good, humble and respectful, valuing kindness and righteousness, is the style of Confucianism. When the woman saw Xie Yu's behavior, she praised it very much and laughed.
"Brother Ziqi has argued with that Gongsun Gong?" The young man in the hall was very surprised when he heard what Xie Yu said.
"It's nature. Xie Yu straightened up and replied with his chest puffed out.
"Is it so unbelievable?" the young man's eyes were full of disbelief and looked at Xie Yu in amazement.
"Hmm, what?" Xie Yu was puzzled, looked at the young man, and asked.
"Ah, I mean Brother Ziqi is so good, he actually argued with Gongsun Gong, who has no one in his eyes, and I will spread this matter all over Luoyi tomorrow, so that Gongsun Gong, who is arrogant and arrogant, will be uncomfortable, hehehe. The young man was overjoyed and couldn't stop laughing.
"Crane slave, don't lose your etiquette. The woman scolded the young man, but there was no anger in her eyes. "I'm idle all day long, and I don't learn much from Xueqi. If you save face in other people's houses, you have to fight for it yourself, and how can it be called a wise man who gossips behind his back?"
"Mother, I'm not talented, how can I be like Brother Ziqi, someone else's child, just to show a talent, besides, don't I often talk to Brother Ziqi? The young man smiled and joked at his mother in a pretended reflection manner.
"Hippie smiley, what is someone else's child, not serious. The woman was amused by the young man, but she forced herself to laugh and scold, but the joy in her eyes was clear to anyone with discerning eyes. "In that case, you will enroll in Luoyi Academy with Ziqi tomorrow. ”
"Mother, you're not moral. The young man was still laughing just now, and when he heard his mother's words, he immediately became anxious. "When it comes to studying, my head hurts, and I don't go. ”
"Mother and son have never been moral. Xie Yu gloated on the sidelines, not minding adding another handful of firewood.
"Ziqi Shizi is right. Mu Yao, who was originally silent, also joined the team, holding the kite slave in his hand with his left hand, and covered his mouth with his right hand and smiled.
"Eh, Brother Ziqi, Sister, how can you do this?" the young man looked like he wanted to cry without tears.
"Needless to say, your mother and I have already prepared for you, and we will go to school tomorrow. The laughter in the hall made the woman think that there would be no more joy in her family after half a hundred, so her eyes looked at Xie Yu more and more kindly.
After a peaceful dinner, the juniors bid farewell to the elders and returned to their own bedrooms. It was night, Xie Yu was reading with a lamp in the house, and at the beginning of the year, there was a knock on the door outside the house. He put down the book in his hand and went to open the door.
Standing outside the room was a young man at the dinner party.
"Zhong Gui, come to me late at night, is there anything wrong?" Xie Yu looked at Gong Yi Mu Jiu in front of him and asked suspiciously.
"Hey, it's nothing, I'm just telling you something. Gong Mu Jiu scratched his head. "Why don't I go into the house and tell you?"
"Wait. Xie Yu single-handedly stopped the public who was about to enter the house. "Is it okay or is it okay?"
"It's... The Chinese characters are broad and profound. Gong Mu Jiu was stunned, looking at Xie Yu's anti-thief expression. "Something, go into the house, go into the house. ”
"Say it. The two entered the room and sat down, Xie Yu took a sip of tea and asked. "Won't you want me to write you words and write a courtship for you?"
Looking at Xie Yu's strange eyes, Gong Yu Mu Jiu shook his head.
"No, no, tomorrow Yandi Dahao 'Walking a Hundred Miles a Day' will be invited to Beijing, I have admired it for a long time, and I have asked someone to visit it together. Gong Mu Jiu explained.
"Oh, what do you want me to do?" Xie Yu asked unexpectedly.
"Brother Ziqi, your expression is not enough brother. Gong Mu Jiu protested. "I just want Brother Ziqi to report to the school for me. I promise that I will go to school the day after tomorrow in good health. Gong Yi Mu Jiu looked at the fox suspicion in Xie Yu's eyes and couldn't help but feel weak, patted his chest, and made a guarantee.
"It's the best idea you can come up with. Xie Yu didn't bother to correct the other party's miswording, and just simply squeezed the public loss Mu Jiu. Seeing this, Gong Yi Mu Jiu was very happy, and was about to speak, when he heard Xie Yu say. "But why should I help you? ”
"No, Brother Ziqi, you can't do this. "Gong Yi Mu Jiu made your unsympathetic expression.
"Let's go. Xie Yu picked up the book he had put down again, and was too lazy to talk to him anymore, this was to send off the guests.
Gong Mu Jiu opened his mouth, then closed it again, didn't say anything, and sat there motionless, as if thinking about what to decide. Seeing that there was no movement, Xie Yu looked up at Gong Yi Mu Jiu, and he didn't speak, just forced with his eyes.
"Okay, I'll admit it. Brother Ziqi, if you can help me, I will go and show you the old man's "Secret of the Wooden Machine", but I said in advance that I can only watch it for two days. Seeing this, Gong Mu Jiu made up his mind.
"Three days. Xie Yu replied lightly. "And I'm going with you to visit that '100 miles a day', otherwise if anything goes wrong with you, I'll be ashamed of my uncle and aunt." ”
"Three days is three days. "Gong Yu Mu Jiu has the attitude that it doesn't matter if it's death anyway. "What? you're going too?" Gong Mu Jiu reacted.
"Otherwise?" Xie Yu asked rhetorically.
"But there's no one at the school. Gong Mu Jiu voiced his doubts.
"Tomorrow morning, you and I will go to the school, and after you are on the roster, I will ask my husband for leave for you and me. Xie Yu replied.
"It's worthy of Brother Ziqi, even if I have completed my personal report, and the teacher is famous, talented, talented, Brother Ziqi can go with me, I also want those individuals to see Brother Ziqi's real talent and learning. Gong Mu Jiu laughed and hurriedly slapped his ass. "That Ziqi brother, tomorrow morning in the court, see you or leave. Before Xie Yu could chase away the guests, Gong Yi Mu Jiu ran out on his own and closed the door for Xie Yu.
Xie Yu shook his head and continued reading.
