Chapter 97 Bet (1)

Xu Shangshu subconsciously stepped forward and reached out to touch Xu Sihai's forehead, Xu Sihai turned his head away impatiently: "Last night I realized that fame and fortune are just floating clouds, and people are waiting to die when they live, what's the fun? It's better to get drunk, and get drunk to relieve a thousand worries."

"What kind of bastard talk is this?" Xu Shangshu couldn't help scolding angrily, Xu Sihai's unimaginable behavior made him both shocked and angry.

"Brother Hai is not bewitched?" Mrs. Gao said in panic, Xu Shangshu glared at Mrs. Gao: "He is reading sage books, what kind of evil is he? !" Xu Shangshu yelled at Xu Sihai in the second half of the sentence, but Xu Sihai didn't seem to notice it, he just tied the silk sash around his waist indiscriminately, and was about to walk out.

"Come back to me!" Xu Shangshu yelled violently, and Madam Gao trembled in fright, and couldn't help whispering: "Take it easy, the child is afraid that the wine is still awake."

"I'm awake." Xu Sihai's eyes were clear: "I've realized that people can't escape a death sentence in a hundred years. Since life is boring, what else can you do without drinking? You won't suffer when you're drunk." Mrs. Gao is so stupid this time Now, Xu Shang’s bookish forehead was full of blue veins: "You are not a filial son! Well, you have enlightened, but you are bored, go outside and kneel for me! Let me see how much you can achieve!"

Xu Sihai gave Xu Shangshu a long bow, turned around and went out of the upper room, and knelt straight in the courtyard. Seeing that he didn't say a word, Xu Shangshu actually knelt down like this, his blushing face turned blue. Peace of mind?A while ago, there was a bit of a commotion, what is it today?Mrs. Gao looked at her furious husband, and then at her son kneeling upright in the yard. She was anxious, angry and distressed. She turned around and didn't know who to persuade first. Xu Shang turned around a few times angrily. He stomped his feet and walked away.

Mrs. Gao hurriedly followed Xu Shangshu out of the courtyard. Seeing her husband walking away, she hurriedly turned back to the courtyard, stepped forward and pulled Xu Sihai to persuade him: "Your father is gone, get up quickly, you child, how can you Fight with your father, get up quickly, you were very drunk last night, this is not good."

Xu Sihai shook off Mrs. Gao vigorously, and continued to kneel with her head bowed. Madam Gao was about to burst into tears: "You silly child, what's the matter? Who are you angry with? Even if you are angry, you can't ruin it." My body, get up quickly, if there is anything you can't say properly."

"Go in and rest, Auntie. I'm bored. Whether I kneel or sit, it doesn't make any difference to me." Xu Sihai didn't look at Mrs. Gao, lowered her head and said indifferently. Mrs. Gao listened inexplicably and felt distressed "What are you talking about? Your father taught you a lesson for your own good. Get up quickly. How can you say such unlucky words at such a young age? Get up quickly." Xu Sihai didn't answer any more, just knelt in silence with his head bowed, After Madam Gao said all the good and bad words, Xu Sidi just knelt and remained motionless, as if she didn't hear Madam Gao's words at all, Madam Gao couldn't help but burst into tears: "Didn't you kill Auntie by kneeling like this? "

Mrs. Gao couldn't persuade Xu Sihai, so she had to ask someone to go to the Ministry of Officials to find Xu Shangshu, and asked him to come back as soon as possible.

The beginning of winter is the beginning of the official year's performance appraisal. Xu Shangshu has been busy and restless. He hurried back to the mansion at noon. Hearing that Xu Sihai was still kneeling in the yard, he was so stunned that he couldn't speak. , carrying a robe and trotting all the way to Xu Sihai’s courtyard, Xu Sihai’s kneeling back looked pitiful and tired, Mrs. Gao sat on the chair next to her, her eyes were red from crying, when she saw Xu Shangshu coming in, she hurriedly stood up and looked Xu Shangshu complained: "Look at you, do you want to kneel your son to death here? You left after saying that, Hai Geer has been kneeling until now, in such a cold day, kneeling like this On this icy and cold ground, if my brother knelt down to do something good or bad, how could the ancestors bear it?"

When Xu Sihai heard the movement, his back straightened instantly. Xu Shangshu was angry and hurt, and first yelled at Mrs. Gao: "A loving mother is a failure!" Then, he walked up to Xu Sihai in two steps and said with a cold face: "Get up!" !"

"Life is boring, extremely boring, I don't think about it." Xu Sihai answered with his head raised, but he didn't look at his father. Xu Shangshu fell down angrily: "You, you, young, do you know what is fun? Have you ever tasted what is called fun? Interesting? You unfilial son, get up!"

"You don't have to try it, so what about being ranked first? What about being a nobleman? What about being famous? It's boring!" Xu Sihai looked awkward, and Xu Shangshu laughed back angrily: "You have the right to say what? You are ranked Yijia and Zhuzi said this again after they are added to their bodies, but their knowledge has not seen great success, but this tone has achieved great success."

Xu Sihai laughed a few times, turned his head away as if he didn't want to pay attention to his father anymore, Xu Shangshu took a deep breath, stepped back half a step, sat down until Mrs. Gao was sitting in the chair, took another breath, suppressed his anger, and looked at his son Said in a deep voice: "Are you making a scene because of your marriage?" Xu Sihai turned his head and remained silent, Xu Shangshu squinted his eyes, looked at his son and said: "If you have this temper, you have to have such a temper." You can do it, so what if you say you are ranked first, then well, if you can be ranked first next year in Chunwei, this marriage is all up to you!"

"Father keeps his word?" Xu Sihai turned his head and stared at Xu Shangshu and chased after him. Xu Shangshu looked at his son and said with a 'hmph': "Next year in the spring, if you can be ranked first, this marriage is up to you , if you can't, if you don't have the ability, I will accept your temper!"

"It's a deal?" Xu Sihai stared at Xu Shangshu and gritted his teeth with his eyes shining. Xu Shangshu simply said, "A gentleman!"

"Okay!" Xu Sihai tried to stand up with his hands on the ground, but he knelt for too long, his legs became numb, and he threw himself on the ground with too much force, Madam Gao rushed over with great distress: "Does it hurt? Hurry up and help my brother up!" The girl rushes forward, lifts up Xu Sihai with all her might, and hurriedly sends her into the house, where she uses wine to dissolve the cold, brings hot soup, and prepares hot water. Prepare hot water, the yard is busy.

Mrs. Xu watched Xu Sihai melt away the bruises on her legs and went into the clean room to take a bath. Then she left Xu Sihai's yard with Xu Shangshu who had been sitting in the yard. She looked back worriedly, frowned Said: "The master just agreed to him like this? The girl of the Li family has such a fate, besides, I have been criticized by someone, and I can't get along with Hai Geer. If her fate is matched It’s better, but it doesn’t work, why did you agree to him?”

"Don't think so much." Xu Shangshu put his hands behind his back and said confidently: "If he wants to marry the young lady of the Li family, he must first be ranked first. It's not so easy to be ranked first, I know." Xu Shangshu saw Gao The madam looked disapproving, she seemed to open her mouth to refute herself, she hurriedly blocked her words and continued: "In your eyes, Brother Hai is so talented that no one can match him. As far as I can barely talk about the past, but this Chunwei is full of talented people all over the world, and there are many talented people. Not to mention, Jiang Jiu and Leng's Dalang, who are now studying with the sixth younger brother, are no worse than Hai Geer Besides, the champion, the second place, and the third prize are not only based on talent, but also depend on luck, if Geer Hai can really get to the first place." Xu Shangshu stopped, turned to look at Mrs. Gao and said with a smile: "That is God has made him perfect, since the heaven is willing to make him perfect, how can this marriage go wrong? You can’t trust everything about fortune-telling, if they can make their calculations accurate, wouldn’t there be nothing wrong with the world?”

"What the master said is true. According to the master, how sure is our brother Hai that we can enter this class?" Mrs. Gao pondered for a while, her expression was relieved a lot, her brows just loosened, and they knit together again. Seeing Xu Shangshu asked with concern, Xu Shangshu shook his head and smiled and said: "Didn't I tell you that if it comes to talent, even in the old sixth mansion, Brother Hai can't be the first. Second, look at luck, who dares to say for sure? But there are only three people in Yijia, how sure can you tell me?"

Madam Gao thought for a while, then sighed, "I don't think I'm even [-]% sure."

"It's not that there's nothing, but it's not even half a point. It depends on his fate. If he really can be ranked first, he will marry him. I can't wish for it." Xu Shangshu put his hands behind his back, with some points Looking forward to it.

Leng Mingsong got off the car at the second gate of Xu Xueshi's Mansion, and leisurely turned into the outer study room. When he entered the door, he saw Xu Sihai sitting at the table by the window, concentrating on writing. There were seven or eight pieces of written paper in the corner of the table. Leng Mingsong was amazed, among the three brothers and sisters, Xu Sihai was the least diligent, usually the last to come, and the most playful, what happened today?
Xu Sihai's thoughts were all concentrated between the pen and the paper, and he didn't even notice that Leng Mingsong came in. Leng Mingsong walked up to Xu Sihai's side lightly, poked his head to see that his pen was flying like flying, hardly thinking about it, it was not long, Xu Sihai finished writing A piece of paper with a smile on his face, he let out a sigh of relief and put down his pen, only to find that Leng Mingsong was standing beside him, turned to look at him with a smile and said, "When did you arrive? I've been busy writing this article."

"Is this the article Mr. Day before yesterday commented on? Did you rewrite it again?" Leng Mingsong reached out to pick up the stack of papers and asked, Xu Sihai stood up and stretched his arms: "Well, did Mr. Day say that the intention was not deep enough? , I suddenly had some inspiration in the middle of the night last night, take a look, is it much better than the previous one?"

"Yeah." Leng Mingsong read it engrossed, finished it all in one breath, sighed softly and praised: "Good article! I'm afraid that even the husband can't find anything wrong with this article, and I still think about writing articles in the middle of the night , when did you work so hard? Seeing that you are refreshed and happy, what is the happy event?"

"Well, there is a big happy event." Xu Sihai's brows fluttered, with a small expression on his face, Leng Mingsong looked him up and down and smiled, "Is this something that can make you happy?" A strange color flashed across Leng Mingsong's face, and he smiled Gradually disappeared, looked at Xu Sihai slightly frowned and tentatively said: "Your marriage? Your parents agreed?"

"Naturally!" Xu Sihai said complacently, and without raising his brows, he lowered his brows with a bit of annoyance, and added reluctantly: "If I can rank first in Chunwei this year, I will do as I wish."

"According to your article, the top one is sure to win." Leng Mingsong replied casually, looking at Xu Sihai's eyes, but there was a little bit of distress, and the direct eyes were thick, Xu Sihai felt that something was wrong with Leng Mingsong , looked at him suspiciously and asked: "There seems to be something wrong with you? What's the matter? Are you also troubled?"
