Fox

Chapter 4: Book boy

Views:

A bright moon sheds its brilliance, shrouding the village at the foot of the Smoky Mountain, which is peaceful and serene.

You Qing was a little tired from reading the book. He raised his head and looked out of the hidden window, only to feel the silence under the hazy moonlight. He closed the book in his hand and put it aside, suddenly remembering the fool he saw during the day. For some reason, those sad pupils swayed in front of his eyes from time to time, and people who had always been used to being indifferent were actually a little worried.

Now that the autumn is getting stronger, and the night is inevitably cold, this fool has no food to eat, and he doesn't know where he will end up.

With a sigh, he decided to go out to get some air. After opening the door, he was stunned. He never thought that the fool was still squatting in his yard.

Bai Li went back a while ago and took out a few smart elders from the bed and asked them to figure out a way for him. Those elders didn't have much reaction when they heard that he was after a man. One yawned louder than the other, and was troubled by sleepy bugs.

The demon world was originally like this, and these shapes are normal phenomena, but now Bai Li is dealing with matters related to You Qing, how can he be so indifferent, seeing them like this, he immediately became angry: "You don't Find a way for this king, I will not be the king! You can find another one!"

Only then did the elders restrain their expressions, and began to make plans with great seriousness. In the end, they really came up with a method, which is very simple to say, that is, let Bai Li continue to act stupid.

Bai Li was very angry when he heard this, and wanted to kick all these old guys back. If he really pretended to be a fool, how could he make You Qing fall in love with a fool? Isn't this a disservice...

The elders tucked their tails and hung their heads in agreement: "King, you have to rely on that scholar, so you can only pretend to be stupid. You can see that the scholar has nothing to do with fools, so you have to seize the opportunity."

Xiaohe listened to it for a long time, and couldn't help but interject: "Why don't you be like me, and be a personal waiter. Don't they all say that scholars have a book boy to follow? Then you go to be his book boy."

The elders shook their heads one after another, sweating out of their foreheads: "That can't be done! It can't be done! Our king is a nine-tailed spirit fox, how can he serve an ordinary mortal! No way!"

Bai Li squinted his eyes and smiled, and touched Xiao He's head: "Sure enough, he is still young." After speaking, he no longer cared about the group of elders who later Ai and Ai, and went down the mountain with joy, and in an instant, he returned to the mountain. Came to You Qing's yard.

But when he stopped in the middle of the yard, his mind, which had already regained clarity, was mixed with paste again. As for how to become a scholar in the upper reaches of Qing, he didn't know what to do.

You Qing looked at the person who was squatting on the ground, raised his face and looked at him stupidly, and suddenly felt a little pain in his head. He walked over and took a closer look at the moonlight. I can't figure out what happened to this man to become so stupid.

Bai Li saw him look at himself, suddenly felt his heart beat a little faster, got up from the ground in a panic, and blurted out: "I want to be a book boy for you!"

"Huh?" You Qing was stunned.

As soon as Bai Li's words came out, he was dumbfounded. He stood there in a daze, and for some reason he said it so directly, and then he became nervous. If he asked why, how should he answer? If he asks what you know what a book boy should do, how would you answer

You Qing looked at him in astonishment for a while, seeing the nervousness and bewilderment in his eyes, and smiled reassuringly: "It's just a meal, there's no need for that."

ah? Bai Li was stunned.

Seeing his appearance, You Qing felt more and more like a small animal, and couldn't help laughing again: "Look at you being stupid, but you're very thoughtful, but I'm just a poor scholar, I'm used to doing things myself, and I don't need a book boy. "

"But..." I want to be... You Qing's eyes dimmed, she pursed her lips, but she didn't know what to say next, so she squatted down again and began to think.

You Qing saw that his clear eyes suddenly lost its luster, and he squatted there like a small animal again. He had some strange emotions faintly, as if he couldn't bear it, and seemed to be unhappy with the simplicity of his emotions. I like it a little bit, so I couldn't help squatting down, and said warmly, "Do you really want to be a book boy for me?"

Bai Li nodded, then became even more depressed. As the leader of the fox clan, he is obviously very smart and clever. How come he can't use his brain when he sees You Qing

You Qing grew up alone. After all, he was used to seeing the world's cold and warm, so he always treated people politely but unfamiliar. If it was anyone else who was squatting here at this time, I am afraid that he would think that person was pretending. But Bai Li was different from everyone he had ever seen. His black and white eyes were easy to see through. Although he was a little stupid, it was commendable.

Thinking of this, You Qing couldn't help but soften his voice: "It's not bad for you to be a book boy for me, you just have a place to stay."

Bai Li was stunned for a moment, then looked up at him in surprise, his eyes almost lit up: "Ah?"

Seeing his stupidity, You Qing couldn't help but smile again, thinking that now he can get a meager salary every month, it's not difficult to have an extra ration, so he said: "Then you can be me a book boy. "

Bai Li was stunned for a moment, then suddenly became excited, grabbed his hands at once without thinking about it: "Really?!"

You Qing was stunned when he saw his hand.

Bai Li was taken aback by his actions, so he quickly let go of his hands and looked at him cautiously: "You really promised me to be your book boy?"

You Qing regained his senses, raised his eyes to see his nervous expression, and was somewhat confused: "Well, do you know how to read?"

"Do you have to be literate to be a book boy?" Bai Li asked more carefully. The only thing their fox clan usually do is practice. Most of the foxes don't know one big character. He, the king, doesn't know many characters. Can only read and not write.

Seeing him like this, You Qing knew that he must be illiterate without him answering, and said with a smile, "If you can read, you can help me organize the book, but it doesn't matter if you don't know how to read, there is not much to do at home, you just do it. Just pick what you can do.”

Bai Li squinted his eyes and laughed, his dark pupils overflowed with brilliance for a moment, and the corners of his slightly slanted eyes showed a very moving look: "Okay!"

You Qing looked at him stunned. After a long while, he regained his senses. He smiled and stood up and said, "It's getting late, it's time to rest, I'll go and boil some water."

Bai Li quickly patted his butt and followed: "I'm a book boy! I'll boil water!"

You Qing turned to look at him, with a warm smile in his eyes: "What are you anxious about? It will be the same from tomorrow."

"I'm your book boy now!" Bai Li looked at him stubbornly.

You Qing's head hurts again, and he feels more and more that his stubbornness is full of stupidity. He can't help raising his hand to touch his head, like smoothing the fur of a kitten or a dog, with gentle and gentle movements. With a little reassurance: "There is something you will do later. Don't be in a hurry. It's dark now and you don't know how to work. You can learn it slowly tomorrow."

Bai Li was completely stunned. He didn't enter a word into his head. He desperately felt the touch brought by the gentle movements on his head. The facial features and breathing are a little lost.

You Qing just thought he was comforting the little animal, and didn't pay attention to his expression. After speaking, he withdrew his hand, turned into the house, took the oil lamp and went to the kitchen.

Bai Li looked stupidly at him walking in front of him, and looked stupidly at him fetching water, and when he went into the kitchen to boil water, he finally recovered, and then he couldn't help but be happy, squinting. His eyes laughed, but he didn't dare to let You Qing see it, so he just squatted there with his head buried in fun.

You Qing boiled the water and originally planned to tell him to go in and wash first, but when he walked to the door, he saw the man squatting on the ground again. After preparing his water again, he walked to the door and called him: "Bai Li."

"Ah?" Bai Li raised his head, and the smile in his eyes did not fade. Seeing him beckoning to him, he jumped up and rushed in, and when he saw him pointing at the sink, he was suddenly overjoyed, grabbed his hand, and smiled in his eyes. Stronger, "You're so nice to me!"

You Qing looked down for a while, and looked down at the hand that he was caught.

Bai Li's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly let go of his hand, and ran over to the washbasin at a loss.

After they both finished washing up, You Qing realized that he had overlooked a problem. He has always lived alone, but now he has a book boy inexplicably, and it has become two people. Small things such as tableware and chopsticks are enough. But when it came time to fall asleep, it was difficult.

His house is very small. There is only one small room. There is a bed, a table, two stools, a larger book box, and a smaller clothes box. There is nothing else in the room. .

Bai Li is not really stupid. Seeing him standing in the center of the room as soon as he came in, of course he knew what he was embarrassing, so he pointed to the pedal in front of the bed: "I'll sleep here!"

"Huh?" You Qing turned to look at him.

Bai Lichong squinted his eyes and smiled: "Go to sleep, I'll sleep below."

You Qing looked into his eyes, a hint of unhappiness rose in her heart, and she blurted out, "You should sleep on the bed too." After speaking, she frowned slightly, not knowing what was wrong with her.

Bai Li stared at him with wide eyes, and suddenly felt that the beating of his heart intensified again.

You Qing glanced at him, smiled, and said warmly, "It's getting late, go to sleep." Then he took out another quilt from the box and put it on the bed for him, then took off his jacket and got on the bed. Lie down in your own bed.

Bai Li bit his lip secretly, and finally did what a book boy should do, which was to blow out the oil lamp after undressing and before going to bed.
