I'm just a dude

Uncle was waiting at the side, Qi Yuan didn't dare to continue reading, he hurriedly picked up the letter, took a sip of tea pretending to be calm.

"Auntie, how is it?" Qi Yuan was in a trance, and asked casually, "How is Brother Shou studying?"

Uncle had just seen his face turn red suddenly, and was secretly surprised at what his nephew had written that could make the young master react like this. Now when he heard the other party's question, he hurriedly stood up again, but he was stunned as soon as he bowed.

Seeing him raise his head in surprise, Qi Yuan felt a "buzz" in his head, and couldn't help but secretly annoyed—he was distracted just now, and unexpectedly called aunt.

"Brother Boxiu said it in his letter." Qi Yuan was sweating now, and hurriedly said, "Brother Boxiu said to trouble Mr. Xu to take this trip, he is far away from home, and he is worried about it."

Fortunately, his uncle was honest and didn't doubt him, so he replied, "Everything is fine at home, but the dog is naughty and not very motivated. He got angry with the gentleman invited by the family twice, and now he is being driven to the county by his mother. I went to learn to read. I sit on the board all day..."

My uncle is a scholar, but my son, Shou, is a child of the Qi family, who likes to be mischievous and playful all day long.When Qi Yuan was at home, he often tossed about the teacher hired by his father. His uncle used to set a negative example to educate his son, who thought his son didn't listen to the truth, but he learned ten percent of the bad tricks.

Qi Yuan thought that he didn't teach Brother Shou well every time he saw him, so he couldn't help but smile embarrassingly.

Uncle obviously also had a headache, and said with a frowning face, "This county school couldn't get in, but the gentleman saw that he was exactly like his cousin when he was young, so he was frightened and refused to accept him."

Qi Yuan was taken aback when he heard this: "Cousin? But...Brother Boxiu?"

"No," said the uncle with a smile, "Boxiu was very clever when he was a child, but he was a bit mischievous. When he was four years old, his father hired this gentleman to teach him. He slept a lot since he was a child, and he couldn't help falling asleep in class. Mr. Seeing this made him angry, and wanted to beat him, but he told his husband that he had learned everything, and now he could export it into poems. Naturally, the husband didn't believe it, so he asked him to do it, and he said, "I like Nanfei Hongyanjian the most, The master was overjoyed and joyful, and he took care of his apprentice to sleep and wake up, and the master rewarded him with a drink fee.'...The gentleman was teased by a [-]-year-old child, and he fell ill from anger, so he came to our county."

Qi Yuan: "..."

He somewhat had the impression that the gentleman liked drinking the most, so he made a derogatory meal at that time, and the next day the husband became very angry.He has caused countless troubles since he was a child, and that was the first time he was beaten by his father.

But at that time, he still didn't believe his father would beat him, so he was stubborn, but his ass was blooming, and he didn't get out of bed for half a month.Later, his grandmother felt distressed and simply suspended him from studying for half a year.

Later, he learned to behave well. If the teacher ran away in anger, he would first act like he was wronged.So after so many years of making trouble, the husband's anger went up and down in waves, most of which were just reprimands.

Brother Shou from his uncle's family didn't learn this trick, and his aunt also has a strong temper, so that guy is beaten every day now.

Qi Yuan felt very guilty.

Uncle laughed and said: "Now the imperial court is calling on righteous people to donate food, and we are working together. If it doesn't work, we will donate a loose official to him. Either the left or right is white."

Qi Yuan thought the same way before, but now he changed his mind: "It's okay to donate an official, but these scattered officials are not popular and have no power. Brother Shou is talented, and he is young now, why don't he teach for a few more years?" Give it a try. If it really doesn’t work, then it’s not as if he’s going to be imprisoned, and when he gets his qualifications, we’ll walk around the court again, and maybe we’ll have a good job.”

Uncle originally thought so too, but he was afraid that if he mentioned it in front of the nobleman, people would mistakenly think that he was here to beg for courtesy.Now that Qi Yuan took the initiative to mention it, he was naturally overjoyed and bowed again and again.

Qi Yuan smiled and asked him to chat a few words about homework.

Uncle only thought that he was looking at Qi Yuan's face, and talked about Qi Yuan's affairs.

"Bo Xiu originally wanted to go to Beijing together, but Yangzhou's affairs cannot be separated from him." Uncle said with a smile, "Recently, he is busy building a free warehouse, and the academy is also presided over by him. The little people are busy all day long. The one whose feet don't touch the ground is actually more tired than his father, and the distressed sister-in-law chased him all day to deliver meals."

This dynasty once had a measure to prepare for the construction of a disaster storehouse, and it was even linked to the performance appraisal of officials at one time. They were checked every three years, and they were dismissed based on whether the amount of food they belonged to was sufficient.If there is no accumulation in three or six years, he will be sent to the judiciary for questioning.

Later, an official wrote a letter, arguing that the officials of the state government had devoted their efforts to the people in order to complete the amount of the reserve warehouse, and the people were miserable.Only then did the imperial court stop using the amount of food as an assessment criterion.

However, local officials are also helpless to afford the early generations. The amount of food is no longer related to performance appraisal, and the disaster preparedness warehouse is gradually abandoned.

In the severe drought in Shandong, the governor could only report it but failed to save himself in time, which was also related to the desertion of the disaster preparedness warehouse.This Young Master Boxiu used his various connections in Yangzhou to mobilize everyone to prepare for the construction of Yicang, which was indeed a precautionary move.

Qi Yuan secretly admired him, and asked curiously, "Why is there still an academy?"

Uncle smiled and said, "This is a blessing for us Yangzhou people. This year, Master Xuezheng and Boxiu became friends and introduced several famous teachers and Confucian scholars, all of which my uncle couldn't even ask for a lot of money before. Unexpectedly, Boxiu was very bold, somehow persuaded several famous teachers to teach in Fengzhou Academy. This has alarmed the surrounding prefectures and cities, and he can't wait to come and snatch them. Our county is also very envious."

Qi Yuan was stunned when he heard the name of the academy, he couldn't help being stunned: "Fengzhou Academy? When was it built?"

Uncle said: "The academy has existed for a long time. It was originally called Mufeng Academy. It's just that the original head teacher and supervisor colluded with the magistrate, and no good students were willing to go. This time, Boxiu invited the great masters from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to make decisions. Only then dared to take back the academy, and changed its name, taking the meaning of a boat in a sea of ​​suffering, and encouraging scholars to study hard. Now the academy has very strict rules, and if you want to enter, you must rely on your true talents and learn, and you have to go through a few courses The exam is more difficult than this Guozijian."

Qi Yuan of Mufeng Academy also knew that his father put a lot of money into it every year, and later donated a lot of land one after another, and some wealthy households around also donated rent.The academy has fields and houses, and the silver is distributed to Weiyang salt merchants and pawn merchants to earn interest, and at least one or two thousand taels of silver can be obtained every year.

The money is generally used for the expenses of the teacher's training, student tuition, lectures, and sacrifices.It turned out that they were swallowed up by those unscrupulous instructors.I used to sigh a lot when my father mentioned it.

But this man took the academy back.

And around the mid-autumn festival... That's when the other party wrote a reply to me.

Besides, everyone in the Qi family knew that this guy had a friend named Qi Fengzhou. He changed the name of the academy, but he didn't know how to explain it to his family?

Qi Yuan's eyes were hot, he held the letter in his hand, and wanted to take it out again.

Uncle saw that his expression was wrong, and vaguely felt that he seemed to have overlooked something, but he didn't react for a while.Thinking about the time I was here, I was talking about it for such a long time, and I don't know if I have delayed the nobleman.

He was originally a simple and honest person, when he thought of this, he hurriedly got up and left.Qi Yuan came to his senses, he couldn't keep him, so he had to personally send him to the door.

Uncle responded all the way, and after leaving the gate of the uncle's mansion and getting into the carriage with Uncle Chen, he asked the old housekeeper anxiously: "Uncle Chen, did I say something wrong just now?"

Uncle Chen was taken aback: "No, what my uncle said is what the young master likes to hear."

"Really?" Uncle asked suspiciously, "Why do I feel that after I said something about the academy, that little nobleman's expression was not right?"

Chen Bo was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Could it be that my uncle forgot?"

Uncle: "What?"

Uncle Chen: "The word Fengzhou is exactly Mr. Qi's epigraph."

Uncle: "Huh? Could it be...Could it be..."

He blushed with excitement, thinking that when he was on the boat, he heard people say that men in Beijing are prosperous, could it be that the little nephew has something interesting with this Mr. Qi?

But after thinking about it again, he felt wrong, that nephew, who hadn't seen him for a year, seemed to have been completely reborn, so serious that he dared not admit it.On the contrary, this young master in Jingli is [-]-[-]% like his little nephew before.

Uncle couldn't figure it out, and was amazed again and again.After leaving the alley of Uncle Zhongyuan's mansion, he heard the coachman driving the mule to the side to avoid it.He looked out in amazement, and saw two noble young masters coming on horseback from a distance, one of them was elegant and handsome, dressed in dark blue military uniform.The other was riding a red-maned horse, stern and handsome, with a smile on his lips, luxurious and compelling.

He hurriedly put down the curtain, and from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of those two people who were also going to Uncle Zhongyuan's mansion, and he couldn't help secretly praising that there is such a handsome and handsome young man in the world, it's really eye-opening.

Xu Yu also saw the carriage parked by the side of the road, and he recognized that Uncle Chen had been in it, but the people in the carriage were completely strangers, and he wondered if there was another letter from Yangzhou.

Luo Yi was muttering to the side and asked: "...I have hinted a few times, but Brother Qi didn't move at all. Now Miss Yunlan is about to go to the ceremony, what should I do? Could it be Brother Qi? Are you still angry?"

Xu Yu asked for leave from Dali Temple today, and asked Luo Yi to come and accompany Qi Yuan to practice riding and archery.However, Luo Yi was full of thoughts on how to please Qi Yuan.

He had thought of many ways recently, but he still couldn't see Qi Yuan's mouth, and he couldn't help feeling regretful: "If I had known this, I should have asked about it that day so that I could make amends, and I'd better donate some more silver and send two people to escort him to Yangzhou. Brother is so angry, I must have missed his big event."

Xu Yu: "..."

He had been thinking about something, but when he heard what he said, he couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth, and his whole face became serious.

The two of them still went in through the back door of the uncle's mansion, Xu Yu was thinking about something, and walked in a hurry, before turning in, she saw Qi Yuan wearing a new brocade robe for meeting guests, sitting in front of the window reading... a book.

Xu Yu froze for a moment, went in and saw that Qi Yuan was really watching "Spring and Autumn".

Qi Yuan was looking bored, but when he turned around and saw that it was him, his face was happy at first, then when he thought of the letter, he immediately put away his smiling face, and gave Xu Xuan a hard look.

Luo Yi just followed in, greeted Qi Yuan with a smile, looked at the book in his hand, and started flattering without thinking.

"Brother Qi is really diligent in learning, he is an example for all living beings! He can even copy a copy of "Spring and Autumn" by himself! It is admirable!"

Qi Yuan had just finished reading the letter, so he couldn't calm down for a while, so he casually found his own book and read it.The words above are naturally written by the original author.

Luo Yi didn't know about it, but Xu Yu was very familiar with the small characters in Taige style, so she couldn't help snorting: "It's just "Spring and Autumn", what's so special about it."

Qi Yuan: "..."

Luo Yi: "??" He didn't expect Xu Yu to break the stage, seeing that Qi Yuan's expression was not good, he raised his arm and punched Xu Yu's ribs without thinking.

Seeing this, Qi Yuan yelled again: "Why did you hit him!"

He was ashamed of Xu Yu's nonsense writing letters, and now seeing him in pain, his heart ached again.

Luo Yi was simply not a human being inside and out, so she had to quickly pat Xu Ting's clothes.

The three were silent for a while, and finally Luo Yi spoke out first and asked Qi Yuan: "Will you go riding? Your little pony has been tossing around for a while, so it's up to you, the master, to teach him a lesson."

Because it is more suitable for horses to go to the manure field to rest after autumn, the little pony went to Luo Yi's side, and was raised by a special groom along with the other two famous horses.However, the little pony was too clever, and at some point he ran into the food of a sick horse. Seeing that the food was better, it pretended to be sick from time to time without a teacher, and cheated on food and drink.

Later, it was Qi Yuan who realized that it was extremely fragile in front of people, and when people turned around, their eyeballs rolled around, sensing something was wrong.

Luo Yi's headache was caused by this one person, and she thought that she had to find out today no matter what.If Qi Yuan is still not satisfied with himself, he can punish himself.Otherwise, after Yun Lan passed the Jiji ceremony, the matchmaker who begged for marriage broke through the threshold, and she had no father or mother, so there must be no hope.

Who knew that Qi Yuan waved his hand today and said, "Today? I won't go."

Luo Yi was taken aback.

Qi Yuan said: "Come here, I'll give you some good things."

Those few boxes of presents were placed beside him, and he opened them one by one, without shy away, and said to the two of them: "You can choose whatever you like, you are all from your own family, so don't be too polite."

Luo Yi was surprised and said: "Who gave it to you? It's a big deal!"

Silk and satin, all kinds of spices are not rare for him, and he only reached out to take two pieces when he saw the last box of ambergris cakes.

Qi Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Two yuan is enough for something."

After finishing speaking, he had to call Hufu in, went to find the small box containing the fragrant cakes, and filled a box full for Luo Yi.He also picked out a golden and copper lotus-petal Panlong Boshan furnace, a pair of engraved gold incense treasures, and rolled a few bolts of cloth.

Seeing the value of the things, Luo Yi quickly waved her hands, but when he stared at her, she hurriedly took them away, happily taking the servant back to send the things back.

After Qi Yuan sent him away, he snorted at Xu Xuan and turned around to give him a pick.

Xu Yu said, "You didn't choose well, I will do it myself."

Qi Yuan kept the best for him, and hearing his words, he couldn't help being angry, threw the fragrant cakes, and said angrily, "You come here!"

Xu Yu came over, but without saying a word, she bent down and hugged him horizontally.

Qi Yuan yelled in fright, and hurriedly looked outside the door.The doors and windows were all wide open, fortunately there were not many maids and servants in his yard, so no one saw him right now.

But Qi Yuan was still sweating from the fright, and turned to look at Xu Yu, who had the corners of his lips curled up with a smirk on his face.

Xu Yu didn't come for a few days, Qi Yuan also couldn't think about it, looked at him for a while before saying: "Someone will come later, let me down quickly."

Xu Yu just smiled: "Don't let it go, the one I picked is mine."

Having said that, he still put him on the couch.

Qi Yuan blushed and sat down, his eyes glued to him.Xu Yu turned to pour tea, but walked back halfway, pinched his chin and kissed him deeply.

When the two parted panting, they suddenly heard footsteps outside, and they hurriedly looked out the window nervously.After waiting for a while, it was Hu Fu talking to someone outside, and his voice became farther and farther away.

No one came in.

Qi Yuan heaved a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but also laughed.

Xu Tan went to pour the tea again, touched the body of the pot, and found that the tea was completely cold, so she had to replace the old tea, boiled hot water, and poured a new one for Qi Yuan.

"Another letter from Yangzhou?"

Qi Yuan's face was flushed red, and there was still a trace of silver hanging from the corner of his mouth. Xu Yu's Adam's apple was rolling, and he raised his hand to wipe it off, and said in a dissatisfied tone: "...Why do you send books all day long? You don't love look."

Qi Yuan said stubbornly: "Who said I don't like to watch it? I am the most diligent and hardworking! Even Brother Luo praises me."

"Why doesn't he boast?" Xu Yu raised his eyebrows and cast a sideways glance at him: "Even if the pony doesn't eat well, he can boast that it's a good horse even though it's thin but can see its flesh. That horse eats fat Now, he boasted that he is a famous horse even though he is fat but his bones can be seen. He has been thinking of pleasing you all day long. Haven't you thought about why?"

Qi Yuan chuckled, but was stunned when he heard the back: "Please me? What is he doing to please me?"

He was pampered since he was a child, and he was used to being treated well by others, so he really didn't pay attention to this.

Xu Yu also knew that he would not think about it in that direction, and said gloatingly, "He wants to be your brother-in-law."

Qi Yuan was taken aback: "Huh?"

"Didn't Brother Luo help Yun Lan's sister escape from Beijing before? At that time, he paid attention to it, but there were many things in the house, so he didn't dare to mention it. After you came out of prison, he remembered the festival in Tongzhou Station that day , I was afraid that you would still be angry, so I sold it in front of you all day long, hoping that you would nod." Xu Yu laughed and said, "You didn't notice it at all?"

Qi Yuan: "..."

Where do you notice this!

"I can't make the decision." Qi Yuan said, "I have to ask my parents first!"

"Then what's your opinion?" Xu Yu was also looking at her brother, and Ti Luoyi probed and asked, "You are a brother, what is your impression of Brother Luo?"

Qi Yuan has no problem with Luo Yi, Luo Yi is highly skilled in martial arts and handsome, but the problem is that he is not Yun Lan's brother, so his impression is useless.

When Bo Xiu wrote the letter, he also asked about Yun Lan and Ji Li.

Qi Yuan suddenly remembered today's letter, his face became hot again, and he said in embarrassment: "You still care about him! I was about to ask you, what did you write to Yangzhou?"

Xu Yu was taken aback for a moment, seeing his blushing, she knew it must be the letter from over there.

"Naturally, it means that you and I have an unusual relationship. If there is anything in the Qi family, you can come to me." Xu Yu coughed guiltily, and drank a sip of tea as if nothing happened. "Why, did someone speak ill of me?"

Qi Yuan looked at him, flipped out the letter angrily, took the top one on the table, and showed it to Xu Xuan.

Xu Xuan looked down at the first two sentences, and spit out the tea with a "puchi".

That Mr. Boxiu used lower case letters when copying books, but he wrote letters more casually, and his cursive writing was hearty and vivid, which was amazing.However, what is even more amazing is that this letter writer was extremely casual and familiar, and he asked a lot of questions, to the effect that "...I was thinking about preparing a wedding gift for sister Yunlan recently, but unexpectedly, Feng Zhou Brother is also approaching a happy event. Congratulations. It seems that I have to prepare two copies. I just don’t know who will marry who between Brother Fengzhou and the third son? Also, the third son is famous in the capital. Watch closely, let him stay away from pink, white, dark and green..."

There is even a "Song of Restraining Sex" attached at the back, reminding Qi Yuan that he needs to control his health properly now that he is young, and there is no need to delay sex in bed.

Not to mention Qi Yuan, it was Xu Ting who was brazen and ready, her face was flushed red even with her ears.

However, this is really not to blame the other party for thinking too much. When Xu Yu wrote the letter, in order to show that she and Qi Yuan were very close, she used extremely lingering words, which was quite out of bounds.If his teacher found out, he might be beaten to death.

The two sat facing each other with red faces.

Xu Yu swallowed a few times, and when the heat on her face dropped a little, she decided to go all out, coughed and said to Qi Yuan, "What this young master said is not unreasonable. After you reach the crown, I will bring you How about a dowry gift?"

After Qi Yuan understood it, he was ashamed and annoyed, and barked his teeth and claws to make trouble for him.

Xu Yu smiled and hugged him, pressing him on his lap: "How about it, do you agree?"

Qi Yuan pretended to be stupid: "What do you disagree with?"

Xu Yu smiled: "I will marry you back and be my daughter-in-law."

Qi Yuan swallowed.

Xu Yu said: "Don't ask your parents first, right?"

"No." Qi Yuan responded.Of course, you can't ask about this kind of thing. It's too common for men to pet servants and so on. It's the first time I've heard of this kind of daughter-in-law. But if they get married, what will happen to the offspring?

Uncle Zhongyuan still has an aunt's son, and if he thinks seriously, he's not his kind...it doesn't matter if he doesn't want a child.

Xu Yu has two older brothers, so they should be successful too.

"Then do you still marry a wife and buy a concubine?" Qi Yuan asked.

Xu Yu smiled softly: "I won't marry anymore, you are the only one."

Qi Yuan said "Oh", his heart was pounding, and he was a little dazed, agree?Wouldn't it be too easy to promise like this?Do not agree?But there is no reason not to agree.

Xu Xuan came up to kiss him, but Qi Yuan didn't dare to look at him, so he obediently kissed him, and suddenly another idea came to his mind.

"I can't promise you yet." Qi Yuan hurriedly sat up straight, and said seriously, "You haven't given me a token of love yet."

Xu Yu looked down at him, but suddenly smiled.

"Who said that, I've already given it to you." Xu Yu grabbed his wrist, reached up into the sleeve, and grabbed out a sweat towel with two small heart-through boxes on it. It is golden and bulging.

Qi Yuan: "..."

"It's still engraved with characters inside." Xu Wei opened the heart-piercing box solemnly, took out a little fragrant tea inside, put it in her mouth, and finally put her head slightly sideways, and put it into Qi Yuan's mouth with the tip of her tongue.

Qi Yuan's mouth became dry gradually, and he put his arms around his neck, his eyes became moist,

Xu Wei waited until Qi Yuan became dizzy, then bit his watery mouth, and whispered coaxingly, "Is that okay?"

The author has something to say:

Ps:

One day in the future, I might write a counterattack essay from Qi Boxiu's perspective.

Or write a stand-in sadomasochism novel with the prince as the protagonist.

There are only Fangda talents, no matter where they are, they are the most shining... Supporting role_(:з」∠)_
