Starting from a thatched cottage, the farmer embarked on the road to wealth through imperial examina

After hearing what Mr. Cai said, Liang Jingcheng had a playful look on his face, but Ye Changyan had a look of disgust on his face.

"Teacher, can I sleep in Brother Lu's room? Liang Shijiu's sleeping posture is really terrible!"

When Mr. Cai heard this, he burst into laughter but did not allow Ye Changyan to refuse.

"When he was young, he was often taken to bed by your master's wife. Since he was five years old, it has always been your senior brother who took Jingcheng to bed until your senior brother became an official and went to another place."

Mr. Cai thought of his eldest disciple and a kind smile appeared on his face.

"I don't know how your senior brother takes care of Jingcheng. He has never caught a cold from sleeping since he was a child. Now that you two are fellow disciples, you should cultivate your relationship. Jingcheng, you must take good care of your junior brother and you are not allowed to bully him!"

After saying that, Mr. Cai smiled and went back to his room carrying the hot water bottle.

Ye Changyan and Liang Jingcheng were left staring at each other.

Helplessly, Ye Changyan could only carry the hot water bottle and follow Liang Jingcheng to his room.

Liang Jingcheng's room was much simpler and smaller than Ye Changyan had imagined. It had a wooden carved bed that was wide enough, a pear wood wardrobe, a desk at the head of the bed, and a chair next to it, and that was all.

"Liang Nineteen, I didn't expect your room to be so simple?"

Ye Changyan looked around curiously and spoke in confusion.

Liang Jingcheng stuffed the hot water bottle in his hand into the quilt, then took the hot water bottle from Ye Changyan's hand and stuffed it in as well, then spoke.

"I went on a study tour with my teacher. When we passed through Yuzhou Prefecture, my teacher felt unwell, so he decided to visit an old friend in Wanshou County and rest here for a while."

Liang Jingcheng started to untie his belt as he spoke.

"When I arrived at Chu Garden, I learned that my teacher's old friend had gone to Wuzhou with his son to take up his post in August. We stayed here temporarily. We didn't plan to stay long. When my teacher recovered, we were going to return to Shengjing. I didn't expect that I stayed here because of you. Therefore, this room only has some of my clothes, which makes it look a little simple."

After saying that, Liang Jingcheng had already taken off his outer robe and listened to Ye Changyan's invitation.

"After the milk processing plant is built, a two-story courtyard will be built next to it. Then you and your teacher will move in together, right?"

"Where did you get the money to build a yard, especially a two-story yard?"

After the Ye family was separated, they lived in a thatched hut on the farm. Although the surrounding environment was quiet, it was indeed too simple. However, the Ye family had only been separated for two or three months.

Liang Jingcheng was very curious. Where did Ye Changyan get the money to build a two-story courtyard?

Seeing Liang Jingcheng taking off a thick coat, Ye Changyan felt his throat a little dry for some reason, so he cleared his throat and then spoke.

"Zhong Yunfeng wanted my family to move to the dairy farm so that it would be easier to look after them, so he paid half the money."

After taking off his thick jacket and preparing to take off his thin jacket, Liang Jingcheng turned around and asked Ye Changyan.

"Even if he pays half of the money, there will still be a lot left. Do you need some support from me, senior brother?"

Liang Jingcheng's words made Ye Changyan feel warm in his heart and he shook his head.

"Not for the time being. I made some things and sold them to Yunfeng Tower. I earned some money. I also received a lot of rewards from storytelling at Yunfeng Tower. If it's not enough, Zhong Yunfeng will help me out first."

Liang Jingcheng took off his thin jacket, revealing only an undershirt underneath. He stopped taking off his trousers, walked to the closet, opened it, rummaged around in it for a while, then handed two gold ingots to Ye Changyan.

"Here are forty taels of gold. You can use them first. Although building a house is a big deal, asking outsiders to pay for it will make you owe a debt of gratitude. It is only natural for my brother to support you a little."

Just when Ye Changyan was moved and was about to take the gold ingot, he heard what Liang Jingcheng said.

"Just, Junior Brother, from now on, please don't call me Liang Nineteen in front of others, okay? It's like I'm the only one who can't grow up, just like a bunch of brothers and sisters in front of me. You can call me Senior Brother..."

Before Liang Jingcheng could continue speaking, Ye Changyan frowned, so Liang Jingcheng quickly changed his words.

"You can call me Jingcheng, Liang Jingcheng, or even Liulang. Even Liang Liulang is better than Liang Shijiu."

Seeing Liang Jingcheng's somewhat resentful eyes, Ye Changyan couldn't help but burst out laughing. He was indeed a child at heart, but he was afraid that others would regard him as a child.

Ye Changyan reached out and took the gold ingot from Liang Jingcheng's hand, and said reluctantly.

"Since you supported me with the gold ingots, I won't call you Liang Nineteen when there are other people around. But if you want me to call you Liu Lang or something like that, that's a bit too corny. At most, I can call you Liang Liu!"

Liang Jingcheng thought about it and felt that although Liang Liu sounded a little awkward, he was much better than Liang Shijiu, so he didn't dwell on the matter anymore and asked Ye Changyan with a smile.

"Then should I call you Junior Brother? Or Sanlang? Or Ye Xiaoqi?"

"Can't you call me Ye Changyan?"

Liang Jingcheng untied his belt, grinned at Ye Changyan, and then said.

"Everyone can call you Ye Changyan, but it seems so strange to call you that, and it doesn't reflect the closeness between us brothers."

"You can call me whatever you want. It makes us seem like we are so close."

Ye Changyan glared at Liang Jingcheng and found that he had taken off all his clothes except for his underwear and undershirt.

Liang Jingcheng was seen unbuttoning his underwear while jokingly saying this.

"Not close yet. From childhood to adulthood, apart from Master's Wife and Senior Brother, I have only slept in the same bed with you. You say this is not close."

After saying that, Liang Jingcheng took off his underwear, opened the quilt and crawled in naked, but he didn't notice that Ye Changyan's ears had turned red.

"What are you still dawdling about? It's so cold, I've already warmed up the bed for you, brother!"

Ye Changyan turned his face away and began to untie his clothes. However, he was very quick and in a few seconds he was left with only his small clothes. Then he lifted the quilt and got in.

Suddenly, a warm feeling penetrated my heart, and there was a faint fragrance on the quilt that was somewhat familiar. It was the same smell I occasionally smelled when I got close to Liang Jingcheng. I don’t know what kind of scented soap he used, but it smelled quite nice.

Ye Changyan turned sideways with his back facing Liang Jingcheng, and then he felt Liang Jingcheng also turned over.

After a while, Ye Changyan felt a pair of cold feet quietly sticking to his legs. Suddenly, Ye Changyan felt his body stiffen and he shivered.

"Liang Nineteen, take your cold feet away!"

Ye Changyan relaxed his stiffness a little, then warned in a low voice.

"You're so stingy! I've already warmed your bed, can't you warm my feet for me?"

As he spoke, Liang Jingcheng put his feet closer, and the two of them just kept on having a lot of fun, with one moving closer and the other moving away.

After Ye Changyan moved his feet away again, he didn't feel Liang Jingcheng's feet again for a long time. Ye Changyan was surprised to find that Liang Jingcheng had curled up behind him at some point, like a lazy kitten, breathing evenly and snoring slightly.

Ye Changyan shook his head and wanted to move and turn over, but found that he had been pushed to the edge of the bed.

He wanted to kick Liang Jingcheng away, but the other party's warm breath, breathing rhythmically on his bare back, somehow made Ye Changyan unable to move.

No one knew how long Ye Changyan had been standing there stiffly, but two even breathing sounds were heard in the room, one after the other, very rhythmically accompanied by slight snoring.
