Shelter in the pastoral

Fang Shujing saw that this was not a place to talk, so he said, "Come talk at home."

Chen Laoshi finally came out to see his former friends and agreed.It was the first time seeing his child, and said: "Your child looks so good-looking." Like a little powder dumpling, the little guy yawned and tried not to sleep at this moment, it was very interesting to watch.

Fang Shujing said: "It's quite cute." He is usually modest and polite in the academy. Although he is kind, he doesn't have close friendships with others, but he is very real when holding the child. Anyone can love the little guy in his arms. I can see it.

Soon they came to the place where they lived, and there was no one in the yard during the day.They set out the table, and Liu Yechen went to put the child to sleep.There is nothing to prepare at home, only bolognese and vegetarian dishes.

When people meet fellow villagers in other places, they are still very close, and now there is no one around to express their concerns to Fang Shujing.At the beginning, many people came out together, and there were four people in the carriage alone. Along the way, I saw many scenery that I had never seen before.

They are all these scholars. They didn't have a plan along the way, and they spent all their money when they arrived in the provincial capital.

For the exam, these people put all the remaining money with Chen Laoshi.These people rented three rooms in a yard.In addition to them, there are some other families in that yard. Among them, there is a little girl who greets them all day long. They are not too young to see the girl again. As a result, some of them are recruited. Not only do they meet the girl in the middle of the night, but also Things that shouldn't have happened.Somehow his parents found out about it, and they kept making noises every day. They also lived in a slum area. When they quarreled, many people knew about them, and now they would point and point wherever they went.

Chen Laoshi didn't know that firewood and rice were expensive even if he was not in charge of the family. At first, he could eat fine grains, but now he can only eat coarse grains.He is very troubled now. As the saying goes, a penny is enough to make a hero, and now he really feels it!

He was also stupid at the beginning, why did he take this job on him?Now I am complaining about being tired, and being pointed at by neighbors, but the imperial examination is about to take place, and my mood has been greatly affected.

Now he wants to break the pot and smash it, so he simply leaves the job of purchasing, whoever wants to do it.

How did he know that everyone is like a dog, writing articles is flourishing, and life is full of chicken feathers, let alone reviewing, they are almost bored to death, and there is not a day without quarreling.

Now that I regret it, I might as well come here by myself, no matter how good or bad my life is, I can still be clean.

Fang Shujing didn't expect that their life together would be like this, and said: "Persist for a while, the exam is half a month away."

Chen Laoshi sighed.

Fang Shujing said: "I can't help you now, I still have ten taels of silver here, you can take it back and use it, don't delay the exam because of money, after all we have studied for so many years."

Chen Laoshi and the others have sold everything that can be sold now, because they have been worrying about having no money for several days.Now that Fang Shujing said that he would subsidize him with some money, he was pleasantly surprised: "This... this is not good, you still need money to come out with your wife and children."

Fang Shujing said: "We'll get out after a little saving." It's better than their situation, according to him, their necks are about to be pierced: "Don't be distracted by the outside things." The money was given to him.

Chen Laoshi was grateful in his heart, he didn't know what to say now, took the money, and said, "Thank you..."

"Why don't you say thank you." This kind of sake tastes like water and is not intoxicating at all. Now that he has money, the brothers haven't got their dinner yet, so he has to hurry back.

After Chen Laoshi went back, everyone knew that Fang Shujing also came to take the exam, and brought a beautiful little daughter-in-law and a very cute son!

Everyone present who listened was not envious.

Most of the people present were not married, and as a result, they already had everything they wanted.

I also heard that Fang Shujing subsidized them ten taels of silver.Forget about that feeling...

They were about to kill themselves.Fang Shujing's actions are undoubtedly saving them from the fire and water, and he is like their big brother all of a sudden.

Everyone will come to have a look that day. After going out and going through the experience, they also know a little bit about the world, and they bought some fruits in the market so they can't come to the door empty-handed.Fang Shujing was playing in the yard with the child in his arms when he was feeling emotional.Looking up at many former classmates, he asked, "Why are you here?"

"Come and see you." Everyone had heard Chen Laoshi say that his children are very cute, but they didn't think much of it. They wanted to say that all children are like that, but now when they saw the little hawthorn, they were all of a sudden cute. melted.

"Oh, this kid is too pretty."

Little Hawthorn seemed to understand when people praised him, would he laugh and kick his calf when he was praised, he was happy.

Fang Shujing said: "Little Hawthorn, these are uncles."

"Ah." Little Hawthorn shouted.

This group of uncles couldn't care less about talking to Fang Shujing, they gathered around and wanted to hug him but didn't dare, seeing the baby's cheeks were tender and tender, they wanted to come up and pinch them, and finally forcibly held back the devilish impulse in their hearts, saying: "This child is too good-looking." They even wanted to have children after seeing it.

Liu Lin and Fang Shujing haven't seen each other for many days, so he said, "Why don't our two families marry each other?" He unilaterally wanted to have a daughter and marry Fang Shujing's little Hawthorn.

When others heard it, they also said: "With your looks, if my daughter follows suit, I won't wear any good-looking ones. It's not as good as my daughter."

"Hey." Although Liu Lin is not married yet, and his daughter's story is nonsensical, why was he so angry when he heard that they even spoke ill of his daughter: "Your daughter is ugly!"

Fang Shujing couldn't laugh or cry beside him: "My son is still young, let's talk about it after your daughter is born." He looked down at his fat cub, he has been so cute since he was a child!

Fang Shujing couldn't hold back and hugged and kissed her. With a clean-loving father like Liu Yechen, Xiao Shanzhao changed into new clothes every day, and her whole body was fragrant.

Everyone said: "How is your review?" Ask Fang Shujing.

Fang Shujing said: "It's still what I learned in the academy!" Ever since he had a son, he has absorbed all his energy all day long.Rare sons are not enough, how can I have time to read other books.

"So do we." Liu Lin and the others said, they used to be noisy every day, but now he has time here to open the book, but he can't read it anyway, so he can only give up with regret.

Fang Shujing asked about things in life.

Liu Lin is not a person who keeps secrets, so he talked about their classmates harming the neighbor's daughter.

Now that they agreed to marry her, they calmed down a bit.

Everyone said that his trip was a good one, and he could get a beautiful woman home, but he was still annoyed, and he closed the door for a few days and refused to talk to this joker.

Liu Lindao: "He is from my hometown. I know a little about him. He is a man of high spirits, and his family is considered a scholarly family. The family originally wanted to propose marriage to him but he refused, saying that a man cannot start a family without a career. His family was waiting for him to pass the Juren exam and marry a young lady from a rich family, but this happened."

Maybe it's because the romantic scholar has read too many books, he just wanted to tease others, but he didn't expect that he would actually succeed after going back and forth.Their neighbor's father and mother are all well-known savages nearby, and their family is also poor, and the girl does not know a single word.It's okay to play around on weekdays, but it's not qualified to marry home as a wife.Now that he is promised to marry back, he is not happy.

Liu Lindao: "What's the use of being unhappy, who let him take care of his body?"

Fang Shujing frowned upon hearing this. The classmate they were talking about was also from Class A. He didn't have much contact with him on weekdays, but he looked like a quiet person. He didn't expect that he was a scumbag in his bones.

"Since he wants to have fun, he shouldn't provoke a good family." Thanks to his aggressive parents, if he met an honest person and saw him pull up his pants and didn't want to admit it, he might force his daughter to death.

Fang Shujing talked to them, a total of eight people came.Said: "Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet." Liu Linfu said in his heart: "Don't be busy, let's go back and eat." They haven't seen Fang Shujing for a long time, and they want to come over for a chat, and they have already won ten taels of silver, so how dare they come here for dinner .

Fang Shujing said: "Let's cook a bowl of noodles, it's convenient and fast." The visitors are guests, so it's not good to let them go back hungry, which is a loss of courtesy.

Everyone ate multigrain steamed buns for several days, and they panicked when they heard about noodles.

Looking at each other, they hesitated for a moment, and their hearts were moved.

Liu Yechen came out and said: "Eat, I'll get you some wine." Although he is a brother, he looks extremely elegant and beautiful.No special attire can't hide his youthfulness.

These classmates looked at Liu Yechen, and then realized that it's no wonder their little Hawthorn is so beautiful, and the looks of the two fathers are not good-looking.Said: "Thanks for your hard work." Their male sister-in-law is quite good-looking.

Liu Yechen's face turned red, and as soon as he was about to leave, Fang Shujing said: "It's getting dark, do you want me to accompany you?"

"No need." The liquor seller just walked a few steps.

After Liu Yechen left, everyone said to Fang Shujing: "You are really lucky. Where did you find such a beautiful brother?" He is really the most beautiful they have ever seen.

Fang Shujing said: "I ordered it at home." He was still looking at the back of his daughter-in-law leaving, always worried.The provincial capital is not like their village, where there are many bad people.

Little Hawthorn in Fang Shujing's arms groaned unhappy when he felt that his father didn't pay attention to him.

Only then did Fang Shujing come to his senses, hugged his son and said, "Zai Zai, are you hungry?" Surprise is broken.They were afraid of feeding the cubs something wrong, so they specifically inquired about the shopkeeper's house, and they were relieved when they heard that there were children with small appetites and some with large appetites.

After a while, Liu Yechen came back from drinking.Make a braised diced pork topping with simmered pork, and the aroma wafts far away.The oily red diced meat goes well with the crispy radish bought by Lao Chen and his wife at the wonton stall.They eat this when they don't like to cook.I made a lot this time. Two catties of pork belly was used as a topping, which is very extravagant. I boiled two large pots of noodles, mixed the topping with noodles, and had a mouthful of salty and delicious, followed by a mouthful of sweet and sour crispy diced radish. , fragrant and appetizing.

I don't know if it's because I've been hungry for a long time recently or what's going on, but this meal can be called the best meal they've had since they came to the provincial capital.

The two pots of noodles were not enough, so Liu Yechen boiled another pot of water.Fortunately, the toppings were enough, so they ate some more. They swallowed a big bowl of noodles, and their stomachs were warm and comfortable.

Drinking is only after eating, and there are no appetizers, just a plate of boiled peanuts, a simple drink or two, the stagnation in these people's chests has been reduced a little recently, life should be so simple.

It was dark when they left, and after the group left, Fang Shujing cleaned the place briefly, and when he returned to the house, the child fell asleep under his quilt, and Liu Yechen watched intently. Child, still patting gently.

Fang Shujing smelled of alcohol, hugged his daughter-in-law from behind, and put his head in the socket of his neck, looking at the soft meat on his neck, he was very greedy, wanted to take a bite but couldn't bear it, so he had to lick it.

The provoked Liu Yechen was shocked for a while, and turned his head to cast a glance at him. Fang Shujing was like a hungry wolf, and Liu Yechen was his prey. He had already set his sights on the prey. Precisely kissed his lips, with a slight smell of alcohol.Especially intoxicating by candlelight.The two really love each other, and it may have been a long time since they had Little Hawthorn.Being teased by Fang Shujing like this, a feeling of hotness rose in his heart, and the night light was blurred. Fang Shujing said: "Daughter-in-law, you are so beautiful..." This kind of nice words seemed to add a little bit of ambiguity to the night.

Liu Yechen said: "I know these sweet words." His ears felt hot when he heard it...

Men are very talented in this kind of thing, so they have to strike while the iron is hot and stay up all night.

The next day, Fang Shujing got up to change his son's diaper, take a bath, change his clothes, and went out to buy vegetables with the child in his arms.

The shopkeeper went out with him and said, "Why didn't your daughter-in-law come with you?" They used to be inseparable, why are they alone now.

Fang Shujing said righteously: "He's not feeling well, I'll do the little things like grocery shopping by myself."

The shopkeeper didn't think too much about it: "It's easy to suffer from summer in such a hot day. There is a herbal tea shop on the East Street. A scoop of herbal tea is only five yuan. Summer is the best way to cool off. You can bring a basin and buy it for five yuan. That's enough for a day." He always buys it, and the one on East Street in the provincial capital is the most honest one, and the other herbal tea stalls only cost five cents a bowl, and you can drink it for a long time.

Fang Shujing said: "That's just right, I'll buy some for my wife." After speaking, he carried the child and walked over.

When Liu Yechen slept until almost noon, he woke up and felt a cub moving in his arms, and when he looked down, it was indeed their little hawthorn.He bowed his head and kissed his son, got up, Fang Shujing was also in the room and saw him wake up and brought a bowl of dark things: "What is this?" He said hoarsely.

"Herbal tea, drink more to nourish your throat."

Liu Yechen's cheeks flushed red after hearing his words.
