On the second day, Quanling County.

In a college room, a young man who likes to wear black clothes is sitting at a desk painting a landscape painting, and next to him stands a young man in white clothes who is a few years younger than the man in black, and the young man looks at the landscape painting painted by his older classmate.

There is a mountain on the painting, there are geese flying outside the mountain, there is a sunset on the top of the mountain, there is a small temple in the middle of the mountainside, there is a well in front of the small temple, there is a little monk by the well, there is a path on the side of the little monk, the path can lead to the bottom of the mountain, there is a path under the mountain, the path is planted with rows of green trees, there are weeds under the green trees, and there are wild flowers in the weeds.

When the man in black finished drawing the last stroke, he took out his seal and stamped it again, and then looked at it again before he spoke: "Ah Shui, how do you see this?"

The boy who was called Ah Shui was a new Xiucai from the academy, named Li Shui, who was younger than them, and on the day Li Shui came to the academy, he said that his nickname was Ah Shui, so other classmates in the academy who were slightly older than him called him Ah Shui.

This academy is not as good as the big local academy, there are only three masters in the academy, and the content of the teaching is also limited, and most of the knowledge still needs to be explored by the students themselves from books.

And the books in the study room of this academy are the most abundant in the county, so there are many talents who come to this academy, and there are not many masters who can teach.

Because of this, Li Shui and An Huai became classmates.

Ah Shui glanced at An Huai's painting, nodded and said, "Brother An's painting is not bad." ”

An Huai smiled, leaned over and blew on the painting again, and when it was almost dry, he looked at the open door again, the sunlight outside the door was just right, and he said, "Have you packed your things?"

Ah Shui nodded, "Brother An, I've already cleaned it up." ”

An Huai nodded, and then spoke: "Okay, then let's go." ”

Then, he blew on the painting again, which was almost dry, stood up, rolled up the painting, and then put it in his own cage with the things he had packed before, and then packed up the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., and put it on his back.

This Ah Shui has already carried his own cage, the two of them went out of the room one after the other, and were about to go out of the door, when they met a mother-in-law, this mother-in-law's surname is Zhang, she has been in the academy for many years, and everyone respects her as Granny Zhang.

The mother-in-law saw that the two of them were about to go out again, and hurriedly said, "Do you have a paper umbrella? ”

An Huai saw that it was Granny Zhang, and smiled: "Granny Zhang, we brought paper umbrellas, don't worry." ”

Ah Shui also spoke: "Yes, Granny Zhang, let's go first." ”

"Okay, good, just bring it, go early and come back early, and I wish you a better business~"

The two teenagers nodded again and walked out of the academy gate one after the other.

Granny Zhang looked at their backs, smiled, and sighed again.

This An Huai is sensible, and this Li Shui is also sensible like his cousin Chen He.

In the early years, when Chen He's child was in this academy, he went out every once in a while to set up a stall on the street to sell paintings and write letters for others, and also went to a restaurant on the street to help settle accounts~

Thinking of Chen He's child, Granny Zhang showed a smile on her face again, that child, although his life is hard, he is lucky to meet Li Shui's family, and now, he has finally come out and finally turned over~

Granny Zhang's face showed a smile again.

The streets of Quanling County are quite wide, the streets and roads are paved with bluestone slabs, and there are teahouses, wine shops, restaurants, workshops, medical halls and so on on both sides of the street.

Today, there are many pedestrians on the main road, some carrying burdens and hurrying on the road, some driving ox carts, some driving horse-drawn carts, some using donkeys to haul goods, and some setting up stalls to sell goods.

There are a lot of stalls, some buy steamed buns, some sell pastries and cakes, some sell silk flower jewelry, and some sell beautiful red lanterns and blue kites~

An Huai and Ah Shui walked away, and the two of them found the place where they often set up stalls on weekdays, and went to a teahouse to get out the desk and bench they had stored in the teahouse, and then the two of them began to set up a stall and sell paintings in a serious manner.

Ah Shui was still shy, An Huai was bolder, and his face was thicker, so Ah Shui sat at the desk and began to draw new paintings, and An Huai stood aside and shouted.

The man in black looked bright and bold, while the young man in white, Lang Jun, who was sitting in a painting, looked a little shy but delicate, as before, and soon attracted the attention of many girls shopping on the street.

Some girls are the slaves and maids of some foreign families in the county, and they came out to purchase on the orders of their masters, some girls are young ladies of the squire's family, and they take their maidservants out to go shopping, and some girls are to purchase things in their own homes, and they come out to go shopping with their good sisters or their mothers~

The man who has a talent name, looks good, and always sells paintings on the streets of the county has long spread in the ears of various girls in the county~

Ah Shui painted quietly, although he was still a little shy, but it didn't matter, earlier he saw that An Huai always found a free time to leave the academy, a little curious, a little curious, a question, it turned out that he came to the street to sell paintings, sell paintings~

He also wants to sell it, and he also wants to save some silver taels for himself to spend or buy something for his family.

So he found an opportunity and said to An Huai, can you come with him?

I didn't want An Huai to smile kindly, and said, "Your cousin is Brother Chen, right? Back then, I just watched him often go out of the academy to set up stalls and sell paintings, and I also thought about it~"

Ah Shui's cousin Chen He, the same year as his sister Li Suyi, is much older than Ah Shui, and Li Suyi is about 3 years younger than An, and An Huai is 9 years younger than his sister An.

Therefore, Chen He is a few years older than An Huai.

And An Huai is a little older than Li Shui.

An Huai shouted and sold at this time, and he looked like a very good trader, and after a while, the little girl came to buy a landscape painting, and then another ~

Business is not good, but it is not bad, An Huai continued to shout, and when it was getting late, the two began to pack their things and prepare to go back to the academy.

The things were packed up, the desk and embroidered stool were brought back to the teahouse where they often stored, An Huai and Ah Shui were just about to leave, and the little second brother of the teahouse called out to them.

The little second brother looked An Huai up and down, then glanced at Ah Shui beside him, and asked Ah Shui to avoid it first, he had something to say to An Huai.

An Huai glanced at Ah Shui and told him to go back to the academy first, Ah Shui nodded, turned around and left first.

Then the second brother took An Huai and walked to the left of the door of the teahouse under an osmanthus tree, the second brother looked left and then looked, and then said: "Brother An, I want to ask you about something." ”

An Huai was puzzled: "Brother He, what do you want to inquire about?"

The second brother's surname is He, An Huai and he knew each other earlier, and the two are very familiar, so they call him Brother He.

The little second brother thought about it, and still said, "Brother An, are you planning to marry?"

An Huai's face showed doubts, but then he spoke again: "Brother He, I already have a crush on me, and the matter of marrying depends on when my crush is willing to marry me!"

When he said this, there was a softness on his face, and there was firmness in the softness.

When the little second brother heard this, he glanced at An Huai again, opened his mouth, and said again: "What Brother An said is true?"

An Huai nodded, and then said: "Brother He, what did I lie to you? I went back yesterday and saw my crush, as long as she is willing to marry me, I am willing to propose marriage at any time!"

When the little second brother heard this, he looked him up and down again, and then nodded and said: "I also know Brother An's personality, if you say this, then I wish Brother An to marry the person you like as soon as possible!"

An Huai nodded and smiled.

Then the two talked a few more words in the east and a few words in the west~

After a while, the other little second brothers in the teahouse business were too busy to work, and the little second brother surnamed He was called in.

Seeing that the little second brother had entered, An Huaicai carried his cage and walked in the direction of the academy.

On the bluestone road, there was a little sunshine on him, and he walked without hurrying or slow.

He glanced up at the sky and smiled at the thought of the girl he had in mind.

His name is An Huai, and his crush is Xia Shu.

He knew that his Tianzi was not good, but he would definitely work hard, for Xia Shu, for his sister, and even for himself.

He has always been stubborn, he wants to become strong, rich, and powerful.

In this way, you can give Xia Shu a good life!

That way, no one will dare to bully the people he cares about!

I will no longer dare to say behind my back that he has supported the threshold of his family in his twenty-eight years!

His sister can live as she wants, even if she doesn't marry for the rest of her life, even if she has a child before she gets married!

His sister, even if she doesn't have her husband to take care of her, it doesn't matter, he still has to take care of it, as well as his future lady and child, and come to cherish his sister together!

He looked up at the sky again, he had finally grown up, he could finally share the burden for his family, and he could finally take care of the people he wanted to care!

He looked at the sky in the small county, and remembered what the two women surnamed Zhu said about his sister yesterday, and he secretly made up his mind in his heart that one day, he would go out of here, he would be promoted in the examination, he would be admitted to the Jinshi, he would hold the power in his hands, and he would let those who chewed the root of his tongue behind his sister's back know how to describe the typo!

An Jia'an's second brother An Huai, warm and bright, stubborn but clear love and hate, he respects his parents, cares for his sister, and loves Xia Shu.
