Do you know: I am Xu Jiazi

Chapter 483 Honey Floating and Delicate Flower [Thank you! Goodbye! I owe you 41k more]

"Those two fierce Golden Knights rushed towards me!"

"Second Brother Gu, what next?"

"Chang Feng, be patient, let me drink some water first!"

"Uncle Gu, if I had known this would happen, I would have asked my mother to take me to the polo field yesterday!"

After the 'hmm' sound of water in the mouth was heard,
Gu Tingye's voice sounded again: "I saw that two Jin knights have been lured over. Without saying a word, he passed the polo ball to Jing'er! Ha! You didn't see Jing'er's polo skills yesterday. It was really amazing!"

Seeing Qi Heng and Chang Feng's anxious looks, Gu Tingye deliberately looked nostalgic and yearning and stopped talking.

"Second Brother Gu, why did Fifth Brother Xu amaze everyone with his skills? Tell us quickly!"

Chang Feng urged again.

Gu Tingye glanced at Xu Zaijing, whose lips curled up, and continued:
"Hey! How comfortable was my pass! After Jing received the ball, he didn't let it fall to the ground. He ran towards the goal of the Jin Kingdom with it! He ran for more than ten feet. You didn't see the cheers of everyone inside and outside the stadium at that time. It was really..."

"Ah? Second brother Gu, why don't the Jin knights stop them?" Chang Feng asked anxiously.

Gu Tingye waved his hand:

"Why not? There are people who want to hit Goro with their mounts!"

"After Jing reined in his horse and dodged, he started from the middle of the polo field, bouncing the ball with his polo pole, heading straight for the Jin Kingdom's goal!"

“Seeing this, another Jin knight ignored his horsepower and surrounded Jing Ge’er!”

"What a pity!" Gu Tingye slapped his knee and shook his head.

Looking at the expressions of Qi Heng and Chang Feng, Gu Tingye smiled and said, "What a pity! The Jin Knights didn't expect there would be someone like me on the field!"

"At that time, I raised the polo club and shouted, 'Jing'er, pass it to me! ! ! !' The Jin knight was intimidated by my shout and helped Jing'er out. Jing'er then passed the ball to me with the club."

"I just tapped the ball lightly, and it went in! With that, we have a two-goal lead, and that secures the victory!"

After Gu Tingye finished speaking,

Everyone in the school nodded.
"Alas, I can't see Brother Xu Wu's ball skills in person!" Chang Feng said disappointedly.

Qi Heng shook his head slightly with regret.

Changbai, who was sitting at the front row, smiled without looking back. He twitched the brush that was resting beside the inkstone in his hand a few times, then raised his wrist and continued writing on the paper.

Minglan, who was sitting at the back, looked sideways at Xu Zaijing with eyes full of admiration.

Minglan likes to play polo.

She was the most diligent in practicing polo with her grandmother.

As Gu Tingye described, her mind was filled with the intense replays of yesterday's polo match.

"Crack!"

There were footsteps outside the school.
Molan, whose desk was near the door, turned her head to glance at Yuemen and whispered hurriedly, "The scholar is here."

As soon as this word comes out,
"I read the holy strategy with all my heart"

"I agree."

The sound of reading was immediately heard in the school.

After a while

Zhuang Xuejiao walked in leisurely with his hands behind his back and holding a folding fan. Before he sat down on the Luohan chair, Zhuang Xuejiao said, "We have been sitting in the hall for half an hour. Feng Ge'er and Erlang, have you just started reading the first sentence of the policy questions for previous crimes?"

Chang Feng: “Uh”

Gu Tingye: “Student.”

Zhuang Xuejiao sat on the Arhat chair, holding a fan in one hand and waving his hand, saying, "I heard about the polo match yesterday. You two played well! You didn't get beaten up in front of your house."

Gu Tingye smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Xu Zaijing and said, "Thank you, Scholar."

"Hmm! When we were playing polo yesterday, which one did you think was harder to play, Northern Liao or Jin? Wu Lang~"

Xu Zaijing stood up and bowed: "Replying to the scholar, the Jin Kingdom is still more difficult to fight! Although the polo skills are not as good as those of the Northern Liao, the knights of the Jin Kingdom are tenacious and will not give up easily. They are very difficult to deal with."

"Bei Liao's ball skills are good, but after being shocked by the students' early success, he is a little afraid to compete with them."

Zhuang Xuejiu nodded and said, "Well, Wu Lang is very good! It's rare that he can observe and summarize his opponent besides competing! Playing polo to strengthen your body is also good, but you must not delay the imperial examination."

"Yes! Thank you for your teachings!"

Listening to the questions and answers between the scholar and Xu Zaijing, as well as the scholar's praise of Xu Zaijing, Gu Tingye pursed his lips with an expression that said, "Actually, I know all this too."

Zhuang Xuejiao waved his hand behind the desk, motioning Xu Zaijing to sit down, and said, "Okay! You have read the essay of the last champion! Changbai, tell us your opinion first."

After more than half an hour,

Rest time,

Zhuang Xuejiu was drinking tea behind the table.
Zai Zhang and Chang Bai went out together to change clothes and urinate.

Xu Zaijing stood behind the table, took the warm tea handed to him by Yun Xiang and drank it, then took a piece of dessert and put it in his mouth.

Xu Zaijing drank tea while looking at Minglan's personal maid Xiaotao not far away.

"Xiao Tao, what's wrong with you?"

Hearing Xu Zaijing's question, Xiao Tao, who was holding a small food box, hurriedly shook her head: "Fifth Master, it's nothing, nothing?"

After saying this, Xu Zaijing saw Xiaotao swallowing her saliva.

Xu Zaijing smiled, looked at the five snacks left in Yunxiang's hand, took one more and said to Yunxiang, "Share the rest."

"Yes, son."

Qi Heng, who was sitting in front of Chang Feng, heard Xu Zaijing's voice.

After thinking for a moment, He Buwei raised his chin and said, "We've broken up."

"Yes! Thank you, Master!"

Xu Zaijing continued to drink tea.
At the wooden table behind the school, Yun Xiang broke the snacks into pieces, kept a small corner for himself, and distributed the rest.

Gu Tingye's personal maid Qiu Niang held the snacks in her handkerchief and whispered, "Sister Yun Xiang, what does the Queen and the Prince's child look like?"

Hearing Qiu Niang's voice,

Servants like Han Niu and maids like Xi Que all looked at Qiu Niang in surprise.

"Sister Qiu Niang, why would you ask Sister Yun Xiang this question?" Han Niu whispered.

Bu Wei, who was standing by, saw that Xu Zaijing, Qi Heng, and Yun Xiang had no change in expression, so he said, "Brother Hanniu, I heard that Sister Qingcao and the other two went to see the Empress and His Highness in person yesterday."

Not for this word,
Everyone near the wooden platform looked surprised.

"Sister Yunxiang, is this true?" Xiaotao asked with bright eyes, with snack crumbs on the corners of her mouth.

"I, I was so flustered when I went there, I don't remember anything."

Yun Xiang looked at Xu Zai Jing with a smile on his face, asking for help.

At this time,

Changbai and Zai Zhang walked back together.

Xu Zaijing looked towards the entrance of the school.
There,

Mother Liu came in with Caihuan and four maids carrying food boxes.

After bowing at the door of the house, Madam Liu said with a smile, "Student, today we got some new snacks in the yard. The old lady and the eldest lady asked me to bring them here for you to taste."

The scholar smiled and nodded.

Then the maids put down the food boxes and opened them, and instantly the rich aroma filled the school.

Xu Zaijing twitched his nose and said with a smile, "Oh, honey floating on the crispy flower!"

Qi Heng, who was sitting next to him, nodded affirmatively.

After finishing his words, Xu Zaijing turned around and glanced at Yun Xiang.

Seeing Xu Zaijing's look, Xiaotao and Xique looked at Yunxiang in confusion. Xique whispered, "Sister Yunxiang, what's wrong?"

Yun Xiang said in a mosquito-like voice, "Yesterday at the polo field, my two sisters and I received this reward from the Queen."

Lu Zhong and Yun Zai, who were standing by, heard this, looked at each other in surprise, and then looked at Yun Xiang with envy.

The honey-floating crispy flower that Mama Liu sent was a rare thing.
The maids and servants could only watch.

After taking a bite, Chang Feng exclaimed: "This is really delicious! I wish there were more!"

Qi Heng turned around, glanced at Minglan, then smiled at Changfeng and said, "Brother Feng, these are the dishes that will be served at His Majesty's birthday banquet. There won't be too many."

"what?"

Hearing this, Chang Feng hurriedly picked up the spoon with the dessert on it and took a sip, as if he was attending the emperor's birthday banquet.

Zai Zhang, who was sitting on the right side of Changbai, looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "Seeing that all the brothers and sisters like it so much, I think we can open a shop with just this one dish." Qi Heng smiled and nodded: "If possible, I will ask my mother to go to the palace to ask for a favor so that I can open a shop. Then I will invite all the sisters."

Qi Heng didn't finish his words to the three Lans, and hurriedly looked at Chang Feng, then turned to Gu Tingye and Xu Zaijing and bowed, saying, "When the time comes, please invite Uncle and Brother Jing..."

Gu Tingye looked at the porcelain plate with honey floating on it and printed with flowers on it and shook his head: "So it's this thing, Heng brother, you're a little late in coming up with this idea!"

Qi Heng: "Ah? Second uncle, why do you say that?"

Gu Tingye took a deep breath and said, "When I was going home yesterday, I heard my sister talking to my mother outside the carriage. She said that she was going to contribute money with Miss Chai to open a few shops selling these snacks after His Majesty's birthday. She said that she had already asked for the Queen's grace."

"Oh! That's it."

Beside the school,
Rulan licked her lips slightly, then turned around and approached Minglan, whispering, "Sixth sister, you and Sister Gu Jiatingyi have always been good friends. I'll take you out and we'll go eat together."

Minglan nodded repeatedly.

Subsequently,

The servants and maids began to help Liu Mama and Caihuan and the others pack their things.

When Mother Liu was about to leave, Zai Zhang chased her out and asked a few questions.

noon,

Xu Zaijing and others continued to eat in the school.
Wei Ruixuan,
In the hall, Cai Huan was helping Wang Ruofu to serve the dishes.
"Mother Liu is back."

The little girl outside the door was preaching.

Soon, Mother Liu, who had just returned from Shou'an Hall, walked in with a smile on her face.

"Lady!"

Mother Liu bowed.

Wang Ruofu, who was sitting nearby, nodded and stretched out her arm.

Mother Liu helped Wang Ruofu up tacitly, and the master and servant walked towards the inner room.

"Has the stuff been delivered?"

"Yes! It seems that Fifth Miss likes it, but Boy only took a few bites, and it's hard to tell how much he likes it!"

Wang Ruofu smiled and said, "It's rare that girls don't like such a good thing!"

Mother Liu nodded repeatedly.

"Changbai this child"

Looking at Wang Ruofu's appearance,

Mother Liu's heart moved, as if she had thought of something, and she smiled and said, "Oh, by the way, Madam! When I was about to return after delivering the things, our son-in-law chased me out and asked if there was anything left, saying that he wanted to take it back for Sister Hua to taste!"

As she spoke, Mother Liu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed.

Wang Ruofu smiled when she heard this, and said with great satisfaction: "Zai Zhang is really an amazing kid. How can the Marquis' Mansion be without this thing?"

"Mother!"

"Mother?"

Rulan's shout was heard.

After a while, Rulan and Xi Que carrying a book box walked over the threshold.

After taking a look at the table with dishes, Rulan quickly came to the door of the inner room and said, "Mother, you..."

As she spoke, Rulan glanced around the room.

Not seeing what she was looking for, Rulan pursed her lips in disappointment.

Seeing her little daughter's hopeless appearance, Wang Ruofu secretly pulled Mother Liu, who was about to get something from the cupboard, and pursed her lips: "What's wrong, Ru'er?"

"Mother, did you save some extra honey for the flowers?"

Wang Ruofu stared at Rulan and asked, "How many of these precious snacks can you have?"

Rulan's eyes moved: "Mother, every time you have something good, you always leave an extra portion for my brother. Why..."

Wang Ruofu frowned and said nothing.

Rulan looked at Mrs. Liu in the cupboard who was standing next to Wang Ruofu and glancing at her from time to time, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Then, Rulan quickly ran to the cupboard and opened it.

"Wow! Really? Two servings!"

Wang Ruofu stood up and looked at Mother Liu in confusion: "How did she know this? I changed places!"

Rulan tilted her head proudly while eating the honey-filled crispy flower.

Seeing Rulan's greedy look, Wang Ruofu held her handkerchief and pointed at her in the air: "When will you learn to read, write, and learn needlework? I wish you could be as smart as this!"

Hearing this, Rulan shrank her neck and ran out with two snacks.

Back to your house,

Rulan let Xi Que take a bite and asked, "Is it delicious?"

The magpie nodded repeatedly.

"When there is a store like this in the future, I will take you there and we can eat to our heart's content."

At this time,

Sheng Hong's voice was heard from outside.
Rulan immediately lowered her voice.

Half an hour later,

Madam Liu came in with a tray, placed the food on the table in front of Rulan, and said, "Young lady, the lady left one portion for you."

Rulan looked at the food on the table and said, "I know that even if mother doesn't eat it herself, she will leave some for me."

Mother Liu smiled and nodded: "Fifth Miss, after dinner, go to the school later! Wang's Brocade Shop will send the new clothes that the eldest lady ordered today. You can try them on to see if they fit you."

Rulan was stunned: "Why are you making new clothes again?"

Mother Liu looked at Rulan with a hint of reproach: "We have to go to the Yongyi Marquis's mansion for a banquet tomorrow!"

Rulan looked at the porcelain plate with the honey-floating pastry that had been eaten up and scratched her hair in embarrassment: "Yes, yes. I was so focused on it that I forgot about it."

a long distance away,

Youyang County,

The brothel Qianjin Pavilion,
The private room on the second floor was bustling with activity.
Sun Xiucai, who was a little drunk, looked at the "learned man" at the table, smacked his lips and said to the eunuch beside him: "Go, call Mama Fei. There is no new girl coming every day."

The turtle slave should be,

After leaving the private room, he heard the people inside flattering each other and said, "Bah, they didn't even mention giving me a reward!"

When I turned around to leave, I found that there were a few strong men in front of me.

"Is Mr. Sun in here?"

The eunuch quickly put on a flattering face and smiled, "But the one who became a scholar at the age of twelve?"

"good!"

“Yes, inside!”

"it is good."

After having enough wine and food,
Sun Xiucai came to the first floor.
"Shopkeeper, how much is the money?"

As he spoke, Mr. Sun turned around and looked curiously at the several strong men sitting at a table not far away.

Looking at those fierce looks, Mr. Sun shrank his neck and turned his head, secretly saying "clumsy and stupid soldiers".

"Mr. Sun, your account has been settled."

The shopkeeper laughed.

At this time, the men also came up and stood behind Mr. Sun.

"Mr. Sun, please come this way." Upon hearing this, Mr. Sun couldn't help but shudder.

A secluded place,
Sun Xiucai asked in disbelief, "Are you from Prince Tan's Palace? Prince Tan wants to invite me to the palace as a staff member?"

The strong-dressed man in the lead smiled and bowed, "Yes, the prince heard that you passed the imperial examination at the age of twelve, and you are indeed a great talent for the prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty! So he sent me to invite you over!"

Mr. Sun swallowed his saliva and sobered up instantly.

Sun Xiucai was not stupid. He was afraid at first.
However, he recalled the praises and criticisms of his articles by several famous teachers in Bianjing.
Although feeling extremely uncomfortable, Mr. Sun still recalled the days in Chaoyun Pavilion.

Listening to the hawking on the street and looking at the shops of the Sheng family that occasionally appeared nearby, Sun Xiucai straightened his clothes and said with a bow, "Thank you, Prince Tan, for taking a liking to me. Please come in!"
