The Baitan Academy is built next to the mountain, and a cluster of pavilions and gardens are surrounded by towering ancient trees. This article is published by the first academy with more than 300 halls and halls, including the book pavilion and the ancestral hall. There is also a temple specially built for Confucius, called the Holy Hall.
Xu is an exaggeration of sage poetry, and even the palaces and pavilions of the academy are also contaminated with a quiet and elegant charm.
Ge Xuan and Lan Yanghui went to the back mountain of the academy, where the air was fresh and the mountain springs flowed. Walking on the deep path, looking at the plants and trees, my mood becomes much easier.
Standing in place, Lan Yanghui asked Xuan Ge'er who was hesitant to say, "Say if you have anything!"
"I think..." After that, Brother Xuan swallowed again: "It's nothing..." In case Lan Yanghui doesn't accept his kindness and thinks he is troublesome, it's not good.
Lan Yanghui was helpless, so he could only take out a purse from his sleeve and hand it to Brother Xuan, "Here it is."
"what?"
Lan Yanghui grabbed Brother Xuan's hand, put his purse in his hand, and said, "I'm just that, don't you think you are too young!" It was also his grandfather who was very tight and gave twenty taels of silver in a month. pin.
When Ge Xuan heard this, he hurriedly stuffed his purse back to Lan Yanghui, and said dumbfounded: "I don't need money." Ge Xuan also has twenty taels of monthly money per month, but these twenty taels of silver. It's pocket money. Unlike Lan Yanghui, all pen, ink, paper and inkstone are included.
"It's not borrowing money, so what are you doing so hard to tell?" In Lan Yanghui's mind, the hardest and most difficult thing to say in the world is borrowing money.
With this, Brother Xuan did not hesitate anymore: "I rented a small yard outside with a washing woman. If you don't mind, the clothes can be sent there to be washed."
Lan Yanghui asked in a puzzled manner: "You rented a small yard outside? What do you do with a small yard?"
"Give me my personal entourage." Yun Qing picked two people to give to Brother Xuan. When going out, both of them will follow with them.
Although Ge Xuan looks ordinary in clothes, the pens and inkstones used are all good things. Therefore, Lan Yanghui knew that Brother Xuan's family situation was definitely very good, but the small courtyard outside would cost at least a dozen silver dollars a month. He felt it was a bit of a waste!
"My parents arranged it for my own good." Yun Qing and Yuxi did whatever they arranged, and he had no objection.
"Then your parents are really kind to you. My parents are so stingy with me, and don't know how to help me." In fact, Lan Yanghui's parents also love him very much, but Mr. Lan ordered the couple not to be married. People privately supplemented Lan Yanghui. Therefore, Lan Yanghui's life is relatively difficult.
Brother Xuan said with a smile, "My monthly pocket money is only twenty taels."
"No? You spend so much every month, who pays you?" Although Brother Xuan doesn't spend money randomly, he likes to buy books, calligraphy and painting. The expenses in this area only cost tens of taels of silver each month
Brother Xuan is an honest child, and said: "My brother opened a shop and can make a profit of three to four hundred taels a month. I hold 10% of the shares, and I can get three to four hundred taels of silver each month." Besides, Brother You also returned all the money previously borrowed from Brother Xuan. Brother Xuan now has a deposit of more than two thousand taels of silver on hand.
Lan Yanghui's eyes widened: "How old is your younger brother? Just run the shop?" More importantly, he can earn hundreds of taels of silver every month. This is definitely talent. Why doesn't he have such a good brother!
Think of his brother, always thinking about him buying delicious food. So I really can't compare, and I want to throw his brother away.
"My brother and I are twins, and he is just a few minutes younger than me." Speaking of this brother Xuan, he was a little ashamed. It has always been Brother You'er taking care of his brother.
Lan Yanghui said very curiously: "You said before that your elder brother has never forgotten to learn, but now your brother is so capable? Your family is so amazing!"
"Well, they are all great, but I am the worst." Yuxi said before that Brother Xuan was not confident, and this was really the point.
Lan Yanghui laughed after hearing these words: "If you let other classmates hear this, I will definitely shoot you with a brick." Baitan Academy will take monthly exams every month, and Xuan has never fallen out of the top five. . Now that he says he is bad, isn't he showing that other people are bad.
As soon as the conversation turned, Lan Yanghui said, "However, I really want to see them and see if they are as powerful as you said?"
Brother Xuan said with a smile: "There will be a chance in the future. Would you like to send the clothes out for washing?"
"Is it stupid if I don't agree?" After saying that, Lan Yanghui also deliberately smiled and said: "You have to say it earlier, so that you won't almost be fainted by the smell." Knowing his shortcomings, It's a bit sloppy. It's just a big man, no one can be as turbulent as Ning Xuan!
When they approached the corner, the two saw a person. This person is also their classmate, named Ruan Chengcai.
Ruan Chengcai smiled and said to the two of them, "You just came back from a walk?"
Lan Yanghui didn't seem to hear this, and continued to move forward. Although he is a classmate, he doesn't like Ruan Chengcai. This person has a smile on his face no matter what. Lan Yanghui thinks his smile is too fake, so he ignores him on weekdays.
Brother Xuan nodded and said, "What about you? Where are you going so late?"
Ruan Chengcai didn't seem to see Lan Yanghui's cold treatment, but still smiled: "I'll go to Shuge to return the book, and borrow two more books by the way." This is a small road, and you will arrive at the Shuge of Baitan Academy.
In order to take care of the underprivileged children, Baitan Academy can borrow books from Shuge. However, they cannot be taken out of the college.
Brother Xuan knew about Ruan Chengcai's situation, and didn't say any more, "Then you go quickly, and Shuge will be closed at night."
Lan Yanghui exclaimed impatiently in front: "I said you hurry up, OK! It's as slow as a snail."
"Here." After speaking, Brother Xuan hurriedly followed.
Ruan Chengcai looked at Ge Xuan's back, thoughtfully. There is an amazingly talented brother, and a twin brother who can do business. This Ning Xuan was not a child who fell into the family as he thought.
The reason why Ruan Chengcai feels that Xuan Ge'er is in the middle of his family is because Xuan Ge'er wears cotton clothes and uses wooden hairpins for hair. Most importantly, Brother Xuan never wears accessories. Butler children like Penn Ting will wear jade sachets and other things. The sachets are all made of fine brocade. Only a purse is enough for his one month's meal.
But what Ruan Cheng didn't know was that Brother Xuan was wearing nylon cotton instead of ordinary cotton. This kind of cotton is cool, breathable, and elastic. In addition, the color is soft and the shrinkage rate is small. It is very comfortable to wear in summer. Not only Brother Xuan, but even Yun Qing also wears clothes made of nylon and cotton in summer. Of course, the price is also more expensive, similar to the price of brocade. Lan Yanghui is a child of an aristocratic family, so naturally he knows the difference. But Ruan Chengcai's family was poor, and he was able to come to the capital to study because of the financial support of the Yue family. How could he know this
Back in the room, Lan Yanghui lowered his voice and said, "A Xuan, don't go too close to Ruan Chengcai in the future, this person is not allowed."
Brother Xuan was taken aback, and asked, "How do you say this?"
Lan Yanghui bluntly said: "He is too fake, you are innocent, so stay away from him. You don't have to be sold by him and help him count the money." It's more euphemistic to say false. It's hypocrisy and deep-scheming.
Geer Xuan said with a smile: "I think Ruan Cheng is good. Although he is from a poor family, he is not inferior. In addition to studying hard every day, he has to copy books to make money for his own expenses. He is much better than us." He admires people who are constantly striving for self-improvement.
Seeing this, I knew that I didn't take my words to heart. Upon seeing this, Lan Yanghui didn't say much. Although Ning Xuan is simple, his family is not easy to mess with. If Ruan Cheng dared to calculate him, he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around: "When will you show me your twin brother? Also let me see if he looks like you?"
Brother Xuan couldn't help smiling and said: "We are not twins, we are triplets. But my brother and I look exactly the same, and my second brother is only fifty or six."
Lan Yanghui was packing his books, when he heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Ge Xuan and asked, "triplets?"
"Right? What's the matter?"
Lan Yanghui squeezed the book's hand tightly, thinking about Brother Xuan's saying that he still has an elder brother who is gifted and clever and never forgets, his heart jumped and jumped. However, thinking about his imperial examination in the future, he was not prepared to take shortcuts. Even if it was what I thought, it was nothing.
Thinking of this, Lan Yanghui smiled and asked: "Don't tell me that you still have two older sisters. Your eldest sister is still the general who leads the war."
"Why are you..." Knowing the two words, Brother Xuan swallowed abruptly. He found that he was talking too much today.
Hearing this, Lan Yanghui couldn't help laughing: "Ning Xuan, I didn't expect you to be the third prince."
Brother Xuan didn't expect to be exposed so soon.
Seeing Ge'er Xuan's look of annoyance, Lan Yanghui deliberately said: "If you don't want others to know that you are the third prince, you have to promise me a condition."
"You said, as long as I can do it, I will promise you." If your identity is revealed, you can't study quietly. Maybe for safety, his parents let him go back to the palace.
Seeing Ge'er Xuan's nervous look, Lan Yanghui burst into laughter. After laughing, he lowered his voice again: "As long as you invite me to the Fuyun restaurant for a big meal, I will not reveal your identity."
Brother Xuan reassured him: "Okay, that's it!" Don't say a single meal, it's okay for ten meals and eight meals. Anyway, there is no money for meals at Fuyun Restaurant, so it’s okay to ask as many times as you like.
Lan Yanghui was overjoyed, but he still reminded Brother Xuan: "You must never talk about triplets in the future. Once you say it, your identity will be exposed." In fact, all triplets survived. Very few. The whole capital knows that the three brothers Rui brothers are triplets.
After a pause, Lan Yanghui suggested: "It's best to say that you are three brothers and no sisters, so that you won't be suspicious." Actually, Xuan's undefeated temperament, his identity is probably impossible to hide. How long.
Brother Xuan smiled and said, "Yang Hui, thank you!"
At the same time, Yuxi said to Yun Qing: "Mu Jingsi said that Lan Yanghui has a free and easy temperament. The so-called "close to Zhu" and "close to ink" are black. If you get along with him day and night, Brother Xuan will definitely get better and better." Xuan The brother and Lan Yanghui live in the same house, which Yuxi arranged secretly.
"Well, after three months in the academy, it is indeed a lot better than before." The spirits are different.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Baitan Academy has monthly exams every month, and his worst one is ranked fifth." Among the 100 elite students, it is quite good to be ranked in the top five.
Yun Qing was also very happy: "It's a pity that Brother Xuan can't participate in the imperial examination, or maybe he can give us a champion and come back!"
"Zhuang Yuan Lang is only a glorious moment. When he is handed down to the world, he can be glorious for a lifetime." Handing down the book to the world, this is Yuxi's expectation for Brother Xuan.
Yun Qing smiled and said, "I hope what you said will become a reality." It doesn't matter whether you can become a university or not, the important thing is not to flinch.
After talking about Brother Xuan, Yun Qing talked about Qihao again: "Qihao is fifteen years old this year, so it's time for him to look like him." Qihao is the prince, and his marriage needs at least one year. . Therefore, the candidate has been determined now, and the marriage will not be possible until the end of next year.
Yuxi put down the clothes in her hand and smiled and asked, "What? You want to hold your grandson?"
Yun Qing nodded and said, "Yes! I am forty-two years old. Others have become grandfathers at this age."
This time, Yuxi promised very readily: "Sure, when I'm done with the girls' college, I will hold a flower viewing banquet and invite official ladies of grade 4 or above to enjoy the flowers." Just reveal that you want to choose the prince. Meaning, those who have the intention will naturally bring the girl at home to the banquet.
Yun Qing was dissatisfied, and said, "The scope of the capital is too small. I think we should call a rank 4 or higher official girl to choose." This way, the selection range is wide.
Yuxi thought for a while and said: "Yes." There are also advantages to choosing more people, and maybe we can solve the marriage of Brother Rui's three brothers together.
After thinking about it, Yuxi said, "Then set the time in May next year, what do you think?" Liu'er's marriage is scheduled for February next year, and she has a two-month break. She also has the energy to manage the selection of the prince and concubine.
Yun Qing nodded.
After talking about housework, Yun Qing couldn’t help mentioning Han Jianming: “Why doesn’t your elder brother invite Feng Shizi? Is it possible that he is determined to pass on the title to Brother Hua? If Brother Hua doesn’t nod, he won’t Please seal the world."
Speaking of this, Yuxi was a little bit dumbfounded: "The eldest brother said that he would wait for Brother Chang to give birth to his son, and then invite him to the first son. I think he wants to teach his son by his eldest grandson, otherwise he feels uneasy."
"Just like Han Jiachang, I don't feel comfortable giving the family property to him for exchange. It's better for my Qihao, since I was a little kid, I haven't let the sex go too far." He has always been proud of having such a son. .
Having said this, Yun Qing suddenly remembered something: "Oh, I almost forgot. Dajun told me today that he is going to Changzhou."
Feng Dajun's ability to fight is second only to Yun Qing. He is going to Changzhou. How can Yuxi object: "Don't you say that it is not too late to let him go after the war in Changzhou?"
"Isn't he sick a few days ago? He told me that he was too idle, so he got sick." After speaking, Yun Qing said with a smile: "I see him, just like you. People who live."
Yuxi said amusedly: "Say me? You can stay idle." People who are accustomed to being busy, idle and do nothing, are really easy to get sick.
