When Zhou Boya came over in a hurry, he saw the master he had just recognized standing by the pond in embarrassment, wiping his wet hair sullenly, while his younger brother Zhou Leya was sitting on the railing of the corridor with his hands on his knees, smiling and looking at him cheerfully. with his master.

Zhou Boya's footsteps stopped, and he turned to Zhou Leya, who was walking towards Shen Gaoyi's footsteps. He quickly walked down in front of Zhou Leya in three steps and two steps, frowning and bent over to hug Zhou Leya. What should I do?"

Zhou Leya looked down at the railing that she could sit on with just a jump, it wasn't high.

Zhou Boya raised his eyes again to look at Hongshi who was bowing his head and eyebrows. Although Hongshi didn't look up, Hongshi still felt the cold gaze. Kneeling, Nan Xue and Xi Fu hurriedly kneeled too.

Shen Gaoyi, who had already wiped his hair casually, looked at it calmly.

"If there is a next time, I will receive the punishment myself." Zhou Boya said lightly, he didn't want to lose his temper in front of Le Ya.

"Yes!" Hongshi hurriedly responded.

Zhou Leya tugged at Zhou Boya's collar, Zhou Boya lowered his head, Zhou Leya pointed to the right side, Shen Gaoyi was staring at them with his chin in one hand and chest in the other.

Zhou Boya was taken aback, then put Zhou Leya down, walked over, clasped his hands and smiled, "Boya often heard that General Shen's preferences are different from ordinary people, but I didn't expect General Shen to be so interested..." They even jumped off the pond... Is there any treasure in the pond?

——This martial arts practitioner will fall when he walks? ?

What Zhou Boya said was really blunt, and there were even some insinuations, but Zhou Boya said it calmly, and Shen Gaoyi did not become angry from embarrassment.

Shen Gaoyi nodded expressionlessly, then walked towards Zhou Leya who was standing behind Zhou Boya, raised his hand and pressed Zhou Leya's head, bowed his head and said, "When I fell into the pond, did you laugh?"

Zhou Leya nodded, well, he smiled.

"Next time if you fall down, I will laugh too." Shen Gaoyi said grimly.

Zhou Leya turned her head to look at Zhou Boya, asking with her eyes: Will my elder brother let him fall?

Zhou Boya stared at Shen Gaoyi and smiled slightly, "General Shen was joking, Le Ya has a temper, General Shen don't care about Le Ya."

Shen Gaoyi glanced at Zhou Boya, took out a jade token and stuffed it into Zhou Boya's arms, "Go find this person." After Shen Gaoyi said, he squeezed Zhou Leya's face, and when Zhou Boya had no time to stop him, he squeezed Seeing Zhou Leya's teary eyes, he turned and strode away expressionlessly.

Zhou Leya covered her reddened face, and watched Shen Gaoyi walk away with teary eyes. It wasn't that he wanted to have teary eyes, but it was... the child had well-developed lacrimal glands, and the pain was so uncontrollable.

——Those who bully children will one day be bullied by children!

Zhou Boya was also annoyed, he reacted too slowly!Leer actually suffered from the "Magic Palm"!

Looking at Zhou Leya's blushing cheeks, Zhou Boya secretly wrote down the account in his heart.

Holding Zhou Leya into the pavilion in the garden, Nan Xue had already brought the fragrant ointment, and Xi Fu brought tea and snacks from the big kitchen in the front yard.

With some fragrant ointment on his fingers, Zhou Boya gently applied it to Zhou Leya, while whispering, "General Shen has a weird temper and is cynical. He hates hypocrisy the most, but he is a real gentleman."

Zhou Leya looked at Zhou Boya, curious, elder brother also knows how to make faces?

Seeing Zhou Leya looking at him curiously, Zhou Boya chuckled, and asked Hongshi and the others to exit the pavilion, and said in a low voice, "Before General Shen accepted me as an apprentice, he told me two things. One is that he joined the army back then. The purpose is to be able to kill people freely without violating the teacher’s sect, especially people from the Raksha country; one thing is that he will never marry for the sake of his junior brother, whom he has loved for a long time.”

Zhou Leya was stunned when she heard this. Although Shen Gaoyi's face was that of cutting off children and grandchildren, he really couldn't think of such a reason, junior brother?brother?junior?brother?

Seeing Zhou Leya's dazed and dull look, Zhou Boya thought he didn't understand, and he himself was also a little confused, but he also knew half of the inside story, but he hadn't been in touch with the strict control of his parents, that's all. I don't have that interest myself.

Hearing the two things the master said at first, he didn't think much of the first thing. It was expected that the master could explain his reason for joining the army so frankly. If the master said that he joined the army to defend his family and the country , then it is not the master.And the second thing... He was surprised and confused when he heard it just now, and he asked subconsciously, "A man?"

The master nodded in acknowledgment.

Then he asked again, "Just this one?"

"Naturally." The master said blankly at that time.

Later, he knelt down to worship his teacher.

When he knelt down and kowtowed, he was sincere, and in addition to respecting this master, he also had a lot of admiration in his heart.

——Because at that time, the master said these two things in front of his father and Teacher Fang Yuanjing.

This kind of courage and calmness that is not afraid of people's jokes and contempt, Zhou Boya thinks, is worthy of his admiration.

But now he will tell Le Ya, he knows that Le Ya is still young and doesn’t understand these things, but he still wants to tell Le Ya, as for why, he can’t say why, probably because he hopes that he respects the teacher he admires, Le Ya can also understand and respect like him.

However, what he didn't expect was that before he told Le Ya about General Shen, Le Ya ran into General Shen.The two... seem to have a conflict?

"Le'er, what do you think of my master, General Shen?" Zhou Boya asked.

Zhou Leya nodded and compared her thumbs: she is a man.

Zhou Boya wrapped Zhou Leya's thumb and smiled, and sure enough, Leer had the same idea as him.

"Le'er, don't worry, master bullied you, I will help you get it back next time." Zhou Boya said softly.

Zhou Leya blinked: Huh?

"By the way, Le'er, why are you here today? Is something wrong?" Zhou Boya asked, changing the subject.

Zhou Leya took the small wooden board and wrote: It's all right, come and have a look.

"It's getting late, Le'er, I'll take you back first." Zhou Boya said, bending down to hug Zhou Leya.

Zhou Leya wanted to see his mother, so he pushed Zhou Boya. When Zhou Boya lowered his head, he opened and closed his mouth silently and said: I-want-go-find-mother-kiss.

Zhou Boya frowned, looked outside, it was almost afternoon.At this time, mother should be with father.Moreover, it was time for Le'er to take a nap, so she coaxed in a low voice, "Hey, Le'er, mother is busy now. You should go to bed now, how about going to find mother after you wake up?"

Zhou Leya thought for a while, then nodded, there must be some reason why my elder brother is so determined not to let him go to find his mother, right?

So, Zhou Leya wrote on the small wooden board: Brother, how about going to see mother?It seems that something happened just now.

Zhou Boya was taken aback, what's the matter with mother? "Okay, I'll take a look after my brother takes you back."

Zhou Boya took Zhou Leya back to Qinglanyuan, ignoring Zhou Leya's request to go to the ground and go by herself. So, all the way Zhou Leya looked at the clean blue sky and thought silently, when will she grow up.

-

Sending Zhou Leya back to Qinglanyuan, and after instructing Hongshi and others to take good care of him, Zhou Boya returned to the front hall. On the way back to the front hall, Zhou Boya looked at the jade tablet that his master Shen Gaoyi gave him, on which a plant Grass, turn it over and engrave only two words on the north side: Yushan Zhou Boya stared at the jade plate and frowned, thinking, what do you mean?

When Zhou Boya came to the corridor outside the small flower hall in the front hall, Nianyu saw Zhou Boya from a distance, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute respectfully, "Nianyu pays homage to Eldest Young Master."

Zhou Boya nodded slightly, and asked gently, "Are my parents here?"

"Returning to the young master, the master just left, but the wife is still here."

Zhou Boya listened, nodded slightly, then raised his feet and walked inside, entered the small flower hall, and saw Li Xiuniang sitting alone on the soft couch, frowning and thinking, Zhou Boya paused, it seemed that mother really had something to do.

"Bo'er pays respects to mother." Zhou Boya bowed respectfully.

Li Xiuniang came back to her senses, seeing that it was Zhou Boya, the corners of her mouth softened, she raised a smile, raised her hand to signal Zhou Boya to sit down, and asked softly, "Why is Boer here?"

"Bo'er is here to tell mother that Bo'er has worshiped General Shen Gaoyi as his teacher." Zhou Boya said softly, paused, looked at Li Xiuniang, and asked, "When Bo'er came in, she saw that mother seemed to be in trouble. trouble?"

Li Xiuniang looked at Zhou Boya and sighed. Maybe we should ask Boya about this matter. Although the master said that the matter of the agreement will be resolved soon, the meaning behind the words is that he wants Boya to marry the Li family. Li Yunhe admires Boya very much. Li Yunhe has a legitimate young daughter of the right age. This time, he also came to Huayi Prefecture with the nobles of the Li family. Li Yunhe is a direct descendant of the Li family and is very popular. A lot of effort was put into it, but Boya was only a bastard in terms of status, and she didn't want Boya to make a marriage so early, so she didn't know the character of Li Yunhe's first daughter.It's fine if it's a virtuous woman, but what if it's a capricious and savage who relies on her status as the daughter-in-law to point fingers at Boya?Just like the old lady...

So, on this matter, she expressed her thoughts to the master, and the master agreed with it, but why not take this opportunity to have a look?

Li Xiuniang explained the matter carefully, and after finishing speaking, Li Xiuniang frowned and said, "Bo'er, I don't agree with this marriage, but mother hopes that in the future your wife will be able to live with you and share weal and woe. Next Lantern Festival, you can take a good look at the youngest daughter of the Li family, if you like it, then make a decision, before crowning, you can send a letter to her Hongyan to learn more about it."

After Zhou Boya heard it, he was a little dazed. He didn't expect that it would be a matter of engagement... and engagement... After all, even after the Lantern Festival, he was only [-] years old.He had never thought about getting married.

Zhou Boya looked at Li Xiuniang's worried face, recovered his senses, lowered his eyes and thought for a while, is it a matter of making a deal, let father make the decision to marry?So, first of all, let's figure out what is the order?

"Mother, what's the deal with the agreement?" Zhou Boya asked.

"The decree is the resolution for the separation of the family. There is a law in my Great Xia Dynasty. If the family is to be separated, the patriarch must write a letter of love and send it to the household department for resolution. The household department has made a decision and issued a decree. Then, Then the family can be separated." Li Xiuniang explained, and then sighed softly, "Bo'er, you know, since Le'er did that, what your father and I have been thinking about is getting the order, but it's really not easy, Qinghe The Zhou family in the county refused to cooperate, and the patriarch also blocked it in many ways, but it was the Li family who helped, and finally got the patriarch to write the petition letter, and the household department is still making a decision, and hope to get the final letter in the next few days."

That's right... After Le Ya lost his voice, he also asked Teacher Fang Yuanjing if there was any way to get rid of the Zhou family in Qinghe County. At the beginning, the teacher didn't mention the agreement. Any one of the three points of "discord", "the elder has resigned" and "the elder is not kind" can be used. At that time, the teacher clearly said that the elder has resigned, that is impossible, and the old lady of the Zhou family is still alive. There are only two points: the unkindness of the elders and the estrangement of the concubines, but the old lady once received the imperial order of commendation, and she is determined not to use the unkindness of the elders, only - the estrangement of the concubine.

However, if the discord between the concubine and the concubine is used as the reason, the reputation of the father as a concubine will be damaged, which is not conducive to the development of his career.

——And now, Dad said that the agreement can almost be obtained, in fact, he has already obtained it.Father has always been calm and cautious in doing things. Only when he is 100% sure, will he make a promise to mother. Now that father said that he wants to marry the Li family, it is not so much a marriage, but to make up for the fact that father is separating the family. damaged reputation.

Zhou Boya looked up at Li Xiuniang, "Mother, I already know about this matter, mother, don't worry about me, I have my own opinion."

After hearing this, Li Xiuniang told her uneasy, "Bo'er, you don't have to force this matter."

Zhou Boya nodded and said with a smile, "Bo'er knows, don't worry, mother."
