It's not easy to be a scholar through Liaozhai

After taking a bath, Li Qing was fine. The fox was so sad, the fur on his body was so fluffy that he couldn't tell, but now the fur was all attached to the flesh on his body. Foxes always love Mei, seeing her own ugly appearance in the bronze mirror in the bathroom, the fox was terrified, growled and scratched at herself in the mirror, and finally realized that the ugly monster in the mirror was actually herself, the fox almost cried sadly up.

Seeing the sad looks of the baby foxes of several families, Li Qing had no choice but to dry the fox's fur by luck, but after drying, the fox's fur was completely blown up. It came out with a lot of fat, super cute.

"Okay, our fox is the most beautiful, let's go, let's go see the present!" Li Qing smiled and picked up the heartbroken fox. He didn't know why, but he could see the expression of his own fox , probably because this fox is a fox with only aura.

Fox~~Fox~~~ The fox barked twice in disinterest, seeing how ugly he was, he couldn't even make him laugh with a gift.The fox actually has her own name. Her name is Xiaoli. She is a 300-year-old vixen. She was rescued by her master from a hunter, so she intends to stay with her master to repay her kindness, although so far she has no good repayment. No, it was her master who pampered her every day with good food and drink.

Seeing the unhappy look of the fox, Li Qing carried the fox directly to the bedroom, put the fox on the bed, and took out a box from the closet, which contained tools for grooming the fox, in fact, it was just a comb There is also a pair of small scissors. Li Qing took out the comb, which is naturally for combing the fox. After straightening the fox's fur, Li Qing held the fox and took a picture in front of the mirror, saying: "Look, it's another A beautiful fox."

The fox looked up, and found that the master hadn't lied to him, and really looked better. He smiled, and his eyes were crooked.

"I'm happy, let's go to see the presents." Li Qing put the fox on the ground and motioned for the fox to come with him. It wasn't that he didn't like holding the fox, but he was worried that holding it too often would make it angry, so Li Qing He doesn't hug the fox very often, even though he likes the fox's fluffy fur.

I took the bell out from the cabinet, and held it up to the fox, "Look, if you like it, I made it for you today, so that next time a hunter sees you, they will know that you are a domesticated one, and they won't catch you again." Li Qing Saying that, he hung the pendant on the fox, and adjusted the length of the rope. The fox seemed very happy to wear the bell, and jumped around Li Qing, very happy.

Seeing that the fox was happy, Li Qing felt relieved, "Okay, let's go play by yourself, don't get muddy again." After speaking, he opened the door and let the fox go out, while he went to the study to read, write, and live. Don't be too laid back.

Li Qing actually likes his current life very much. He reads, writes and writes every day, or plays the piano, plays chess and practice swords. The daily schedule is tight but not in a hurry. He can eat delicious food every day and doesn’t need to worry about trivial matters in life. It is simply a perfect cultivation life.

After the sky darkened, Li Qing went back to his bedroom to rest after dinner. In fact, he was cultivating. He used jade stones to make a small obscuration array in the past few days, just to prevent people from outside the house from breaking in while he was cultivating.

When the small spirit-gathering array is set up, his cultivation speed will be faster. It has only been a short month since he passed through, and his cultivation base is almost a triple jump. From no cultivation base to the current Qi training Fourth level, if he continues to practice at this speed, he will be able to build a foundation in less than half a year.

Establishing the foundation, that is the cultivation level that Li Qing couldn't ask for in his previous life, and he can practice Samadhi True Fire at the foundation establishment period, and become a real alchemist.

In order to build the foundation as soon as possible and become a true cultivator, Li Qing also worked very hard. He went to bed at about [-] o'clock in the evening and began to practice until he got up around [-] o'clock the next day. These ten hours were spent in cultivation. Yes, I haven't rested since I broke through.

The one-night practice passed quickly, almost as soon as the eyes were closed and opened.Li Qing exhaled turbid air, and felt his whole body relaxed a lot. Last night, he broke through a small level again, and some impurities were discharged from his body. Li Qing went to the hot spring to take a bath, changed his clothes, and then went out and took the bamboo sword to the yard. Practicing swords here, I practiced a set of swordsmanship five times for exactly one hour.

"Master, breakfast is ready." Shi Yan saw his master doing the sword retracting pose, and hurried forward to hand the towel.

"Well, I'm going to wash up first." After Li Qing finished speaking, he threw the bamboo sword in his hand to Shi Yan, and went to the dining room to have breakfast after washing himself. After breakfast, Li Qing went to the study, every day Li Qing would stay in the study for an hour, reviewing the old and learning the new, and then practice calligraphy or painting until noon. After lunch, the afternoon is free, usually spent in the utility room, or When I am in a good mood, I can play small games with the fox.

"Master." Shi Yan walked to the door of the utility room and changed it softly.

"What's the matter?" Li Qing put down the carving knife and spirit-gathering talisman in his hand, and asked.But because it was interrupted, this talisman is considered useless, and it can only be used to carve an ordinary object, which is a pity.

"Madam asked people from Silk and Satin Village to come over and tailor you, young master. It's time to make autumn and winter clothes for you." Shi Yan said softly.

"Well, I see. Let someone go to the Xiaohua Hall and wait. I'll clean up and go there." Li Qing said gently.

When Shi Yan heard the words, he responded and withdrew. Shi Yan didn't know what happened. He has become more stable recently, probably because he has grown up. I heard that the housekeeper has already arranged a marriage for Shi Yan. It's him The big girl next to my mother is called Luhe, she is beautiful and gentle.

Thinking about it, Li Qing shook his head with a smile. Children nowadays are really precocious. Shi Yan is only 15 years old and should be married. He should go back and discuss with his old mother. It is best not to lose Yuanyang, otherwise it will be bad for practice.

The one who measured Li Qing was a middle-aged tailor, female. After all, most of the tailors nowadays are women. The shopkeeper of this silk and satin shop is quite good at business. He brought in the best silk from Yuhang area, and then provided tailored The service, and the embroiderers in her family are all masters from Hangzhou. The clothes they make are beautiful and comfortable, so they are very popular with the ladies and wives in their county.

After measuring his body, Li Qing left, leaving the rest to Shi Yan. He is the young master, so he doesn't need to worry about these trivial matters.His mother will make proper arrangements for him.Although the mountain residence he lives in is elegant and quiet, one disadvantage is that there are no people around, and it is not easy to buy, and his mother dotes on him, and people will send fresh vegetables and meat to him almost every day. Let's get to know him by the way. current situation.

After seeing off the tailor, Li Qing went back to the utility room to continue carving his own spirit-gathering talismans. Today was a relatively rich time. After lunch, Li Qing went in and started to carve. There were only a few pieces left before they were all carved. The time for piano practice is set aside today, and the carving will be finished soon, and a gathering of spirits will be set up at night, so that the practice can be faster.

"Master, it will be Double Ninth Festival in a few days, why don't you call Qing'er back tomorrow." Li's mother said gently while helping Li's father to change his clothes.

Li's father frowned. It's not that he didn't want his son, it's just that the township examination will be held in August next year, so he decided, "Forget it, let's talk about it after the Chinese New Year. Don't let him play wild with his heart."

Li's mother sighed and knew it was the case, "Actually, it's okay even if you don't pass the exam this time. Qing'er is still young, so there is no rush."

"I don't want to push him so hard, but you also know that he and the lady of Li Shangshu's family have been engaged since childhood, and he can't wait until next year to be hired as a scholar." Father Li said helplessly.Who would have thought that Li Zhao, who was not as good as him at the beginning, passed the exam all the way in just a dozen years, and finally became a Jinshi and became a minister of the Ministry of Rites.If I knew it was like this at the beginning, I shouldn't have engaged in baby marriage, but now it's really hard to get off.

"It's all your fault, what did you think at the beginning." Thinking of this, Li's mother said angrily, Li Shangshu's family only raised a daughter and had no son, if he married into the family, he would not confess.

"Hey, I regret it too. It's just that Li Zhao is the most ceremonial person, and our two families exchanged famous cards and tokens." Father Li also looked regretful when he said this. I am also a small official, but compared with the capital city, it is one in the sky and one in the ground, but I can't go to divorce for no reason. When the time comes, the marriage will be divorced, but the two families will almost become enemies. It's really bad for a girl.

"Forget it, forget it." Li's mother said sadly. The daughter-in-law was not chosen by herself, and she was a charming lady. That's it.

"Sleep, children and grandchildren have their own blessings." Li's father said with a smile. After all these years, he also wanted to open up, and his family and the Shangshufu also gave each other gifts during the holidays. He heard Li Zhao mention it in his letter. The girl from his family is also a very talented girl, and she can talk to her own children if she wants to.
