Chapter 3: A Rare Mistress
"What advice do you have for senior brothers?" Qin Yiyang walked slowly to Zhu Youliang and them, and bowed his hand politely, he was also a student of the academy before, and he started later than them, so he mostly called them senior brothers, and now although he is a scholar, he still calls them so.
"Senior brother, who is your senior brother? Why can't you remember, you are a poor scholar now!" Before Qin Yiyang finished speaking, Zhu Youliang shouted with his head and face.
The other four burst into laughter.
"If there's nothing important, I'm going to sweep the floor!" Qin Yiyang turned around and wanted to leave, he knew why Zhu Youliang and they always liked to trouble him, because before he became a scholar, he was better than them, and he was the object of Instructor Fang Hanyun's praise every day, Instructor Fang always used him to talk about things and criticize them, and they naturally held a grudge.
As for Zhu Youliang, the two of them once had a fight, and this famous family was compared with him, a child from a poor family, every day after that, and he felt very uncomfortable, so he deliberately found fault, but he beat his nose and face were swollen.
Later, Qin Yiyang became a scholar, and he came to tease and bully every day.
"Sweeping the floor?haha, a former genius, now he can only be a scholar sweeping the floor!How about it, watching us practice boxing every day, are your hands itchy?" Zhu Youliang stopped in front of Qin Yiyang, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he smiled, "Little scholar, the master is tired from morning practice, go and pour a cup of tea for the master!"
"I'm sorry, the dean just asked me to be responsible for cleaning the bathing things of the academy and everyone, the bathing things have already been prepared and placed in the bathing room, as for wanting to drink tea, pour it yourself!" Qin Yiyang turned his back and replied coldly.
"Yo, use the dean to pressure the master, the master is so afraid!" Zhu Youliang laughed loudly and blocked Qin Yiyang's way again, "Don't think I don't know that you lie on the roof every day to peek at our cultivation, you said that if the dean knows about this matter and deals with it according to the school rules, what will be the end?"
"What do you want?" Qin Yiyang gritted his teeth, his fists were already clenched, if he was a student before, he would have beaten this guy into a meat ball, but unfortunately now his identity is different, if he does something to this guy, he will definitely be kicked out of the academy.
After his family was in ruin and he couldn't afford to pay the tuition, he begged the dean for several days before the dean agreed to keep him as a scholar, but he couldn't spoil the overall situation because of impulse.
"Actually, I didn't think about it, that day on the street, I saw a girl behind you, she looked quite smart, you sold her to me, fifty taels of silver, if she can serve the master well, the master can also let the family come forward, see if the dean is willing to let you continue to be a student!" Zhu Youliang said his sinister intentions, "If you dare to say half a word, I will immediately tell the dean about your peeking at our cultivation!"
"Qin Yiyang, don't be ignorant, a girl, fifty taels of silver is a lot!"
"Yes, now that you yourself are a humble scholar, how can you be qualified to have a servant!"
"That is, you can't even eat enough for yourself with half the money every month, how can you support her? Do you really bear to let her go to the pharmacy every day to do chores to help you maintain your family's shabby house?"
The others followed suit, insulting someone who had been better than them, and they all seemed to be happy and happy.
"Don't dream here, this is impossible!" Qin Yiyang raised his eyebrows and gritted his teeth.
They were talking about Xiangyu, the person who was now dependent on him. After the family fell and her parents died, the servants left one after another, only Xiangyu insisted on staying, he couldn't bear her to suffer with him, persuaded her to find a big family, and even scolded her and let her go, she was still motionless, saying that her mother was kind to her when she was alive, and she could forget everything, but she couldn't forget it, so even if she starved to death with him, she would not leave.
This touched him very much, so he no longer regarded her as a servant, but as a sister, and asked him to sell his sister to others? Even if he tried his best, he would not let this happen, let alone be kicked out of the academy.
And if it weren't for her, he wouldn't have gone to the Ten Thousand Demon Cave, and he wouldn't have been able to get the magical ancient mirror in his arms, making him seem to be unable to practice like other students, but in fact, he was stronger than any of them.
"Then you just wait to be driven away by the academy!" Seeing Qin Yiyang turn around and stride away, Zhu Youliang was happy, he liked to see his miserable expression.
"That's it?" Zhu Youliang's best friend Cheng Tianbao approached Zhu Youliang and asked with a wicked smile, he hasn't had fun yet! Although the Cheng family is not as good as the Zhu family, it is also a well-known family in Qingcheng County.
"How is it possible? That little girl looks so smart, the little master has been thinking that she can't sleep for a few nights, and he will never stop if he doesn't get her hands on her!" Zhu Youliang said, leaning into Cheng Tianbao's ear and purring.
After listening to Zhu Youliang's words, Cheng Tianbao couldn't help but give a thumbs up, his face was full of thieves, it turned out that this guy had already had a way, high, really high, he couldn't wait for the night to come.
After leaving the small courtyard, Qin Yiyang came to the back mountain, where he desperately swung his fists, his fists were full of energy, and he constantly cut off the green bamboos in the mountains.
He was very angry, not because he was discovered by peeking at the student's cultivation, and he might be kicked out of the academy, but because Zhu Youliang's kid was actually playing Xiangyu's idea.
Xiangyu is the only warmth left in his heart now, he has been reduced to this, she still does not abandon him, the young master before and after the young master, and also goes to the pharmacy on the street to do chores, doing the hard work of grinding medicine, only earning two or three copper plates a day, and will save it when he comes back, and quietly stuff it into his clothes at the end of the month, so that he can bring it to the academy to use.
Such a person deserves everything he can to protect, and he firmly believes that one day, he will let her live a better life than any other woman.
If there is something in his heart, he will be distracted when he is practicing, and his fist qi will become chaotic like a hemp ball, Qin Yiyang is extremely angry, so he simply stopped practicing, walked down the mountain quickly, went home to see Xiangyu, and when he saw her, his mood would probably be much better.
Anyway, he might have been driven away by the academy, so he didn't go to the academy to say hello when he went down the mountain this time.
The academy is on the mountainside, below is the county seat of Qingcheng, the spacious bluestone street is full of shops, restaurants, pharmacies, rice shops and cloth shops are all available, the street is even more busy, the sound of people is boiling, the shouts of small stalls and hawkers and the sound of opera in the teahouse are one after another.
Qin Yiyang turned a blind eye to all this prosperity, because after his family fell, all this became irrelevant to his life.
All his life is an old house at the end of the east street of the city, a spacious house with five large houses, at this time only the broken walls are left, even the doors and windows have been pried away, only a partial house in the southeast corner can still live, but the doors and windows are simple wooden boards, there are not even tiles on the roof, covered with broken tiles and bowls that he and Hanxiang picked up from everywhere, every time it rains, it rains heavily outside the house, and it rains lightly inside the house.
Every time he walked to the door, Qin Yiyang was in a beautiful situation, and he couldn't help but think about the accident, his parents were businessmen, and they went to Huodingzhou half a year ago to buy goods, but they encountered bandits......
The county has already filed a case, but the murderer has not been traced down so far, and the money that my father used in business was all transferred from everywhere, and afterwards all the creditors came to the door, and the house was washed empty, not even the doors and windows were spared, if it wasn't for the money owed to them in the first place, thinking of their faces at that time, he wanted to kill them all.
"Young Master, you're back!" Just as Qin Yiyang was standing at the door of his house and looked sad, a crisp and pleasant voice full of tenderness came from behind him.
