The daily routine of wearing a book and abusing literature to cultivate a scholar and Xiaoxianggong

Chapter 74 Sleepless Night

It took some time to rush back to the academy from home in the morning, and it was time for lunch after paying homage to the teacher.After lunch, Pei Zhiqi didn't go out of the room again, and devoted himself to writing the exam questions given by Mr. Xie all afternoon.

When the evening was approaching, the exam questions were finished, and it was time for dinner.

Just as Pei Zhiqi put away the answer sheet, he heard someone knocking on the door outside.

"Brother Pei, shall we go to the kitchen for dinner?" It was Qin Jin's voice.

Pei Zhiqi opened the door, and it turned out to be Qin Jin, a fellow villager. He replied "OK", and the two went to the kitchen together.

Although Qin Jin is from a different village, he is also a fellow in the same town, and with his previous contacts, he is closer than other students from the beginning.

The kitchen is on the south side of the fasting house, and it takes a while to get there.

The two walked and chatted.

"Brother Pei hurried home yesterday afternoon, and was unable to attend the first gathering of classmates to chat in the evening. Everyone felt it was a pity. After all, other people would ask for a teacher with a name card. Brother Pei actually had two teachers. At the same time, I found you and said that I want to accept you as a disciple. Everyone is very curious and wants to chat with you," Qin Jin said to Pei Zhiqi with a smile.

Pei Zhiqi didn't know how to answer this sentence, so he just smiled modestly without opening his mouth.

He is not good at talking outside, Qin Jin can occasionally say a few words, but it is not a lively character, the two of them chatted a few words without saying a word, and most of the time they hurried on their way with their heads depressed.

At this time, there were other students walking towards the kitchen in twos and threes on the road, some of them were talking and laughing while walking, and one of them was walking silently.

After walking for a while, the two passed by a small courtyard with a locked door. Pei Zhiqi turned his head and looked at it. Without saying a word, he looked back and continued on his way.

Qin Jin observed that Pei Zhiqi was a little curious about this courtyard, so he smiled and said, "Last night, we chatted and wandered around in the academy, and recognized many places that the head of the studio didn't introduce, and the courtyard that brother Pei saw just now is one of them. One, that yard is the son of Boss Wan in the provincial capital, the yard where Young Master Wan lives alone in the academy. I heard that Young Master Wan has lived in the academy for six years. Stay here to learn knowledge and learn, but he seems to only come here occasionally, usually stay outside."

Pei Zhiqi was well aware of what Master Wan was doing outside, but this was the first time he had heard of it in this yard. He smiled back at Qin Jin and said, "I see."

Unexpectedly, Qin Jin was a little surprised and said: "Brother Pei doesn't know? Yesterday, I ran into Young Master Wan at the head of the house with Brother Pei. I saw that he and you seemed familiar, and Young Master Wan even said hello to you." , it just seems that there is a misunderstanding between you two?"

Pei Zhiqi calmly replied: "There is more than a misunderstanding between me and him."

Seeing that Pei Zhiqi said such a scary word seriously, Qin Jin hurriedly accepted the question, not daring to continue asking.

There is still some distance from the kitchen, and it is not a problem for the two of them to just walk in silence. Qin Jin searched and searched, and there was nothing else he could talk about.

"Brother Pei, do you know that the path next to the academy goes all the way up the mountain, and there is a big villa on the top, about half the size of the academy. I heard that is where Boss Wan lives when he comes to the academy occasionally when he goes out of town."

The last time I climbed a mountain with my wife, I did vaguely see some well-arranged houses, large and small, when I passed by. When chatting with my wife, I thought it was a place for a wealthy family to escape the summer.

"I did pass a big village before climbing the mountain. It turned out to be Boss Wan's other courtyard." Pei Zhiqi smiled and replied: "The other courtyard continues to go up, climb to the top of the mountain, and there is a temple."

"Oh? Brother Pei actually climbed to the top of the mountain." Qin Jin said in surprise: "We only walked up, fearing that it would be too dark to walk on the mountain road, so we took a look at the other courtyard from a distance and came back."

"Well," Pei Zhiqi nodded, "Next time, if there is a chance, Brother Qin can also go to the top of the mountain to have a look. The scenery is very good."

Qin Jin replied with a smile: "Okay, Qin has written it down."

The talking room finally arrived at the kitchen.

Eating in the academy is relatively early, and there is still time to wash up after dinner, and the sky has just darkened after washing up.

Pei Zhiqi went to bed early at night, and reading at night not only hurts his eyes, but also affects his rest. He has to get up early the next day, and he takes the sword gifted by his wife with him, so he has to find an empty and deserted place to continue practicing tomorrow morning.

After washing up and tidying up the books and papers to be used tomorrow, Pei Zhiqi lay down early to rest.

The single room in the academy is small in size, and the bed is also a narrow single bed, which is just enough for him to sleep and turn over by himself.

The quilts and pillows are all newly issued by the academy. The high-quality cotton quilts are soft and warm. This condition is better than the life of ordinary people.

But Pei Zhiqi tossed and turned under the blanket, but couldn't sleep.

Before getting married, I always slept alone at home, but in the past few months after getting married, I have become used to having someone next to my pillow to chat with him at night, occasionally hugging his arm, and talking in my sleep at night.

When he first started practicing swords, the lady said that it takes ninety days to develop a good habit, so in the past four months, having a lady by his side has become his new habit.

He thought of the lady sitting on the side of the road when he came home last night, and felt uncomfortable.

I wonder if the lady has learned how to make a fire?With Mrs. Wang accompanying me tonight, I shouldn't be afraid.

Today is the [-]th, tomorrow is the [-]th, and the day after tomorrow there will be a lecture at the No. [-] Academy, and the lady will come to see if she has lost weight, and whether she has a good meal every day.

Pei Zhiqi turned over again, and he sighed under the blanket.

It's no use worrying if you can't sleep, let it be.

*

The husband is gone, the bed has become much more spacious!

Li Xiaodao had filled two Tang women and stuffed them into the quilt early, and then spread the quilt evenly, no need to roll up the sides.

She got into bed and rolled back and forth in it, enjoying the spaciousness.

After enjoying it, turn off the oil lamp, and it's time to go to bed.

Cook Wang is nearly forty years old and has cooked for her brother for several years. She is also very talkative, kind and enthusiastic. She sleeps in the guest bedroom, and Li Xiaodao is not afraid at all.

It's just that I can't hold Xianggong's arm, and I feel a little uncomfortable.

Before crossing, she slept with a pillow, which was convenient for lying on her side, and it was also good to sleep with her husband's arms behind her. Now that her arms are empty, she feels uncomfortable no matter how she lies.

And she was not used to smelling the familiar faint fragrance.

The woody fragrance on Xianggong's body is like her sedative, which makes her feel safe.

After rolling around in the bed for a while, she still decided to get out of bed, opened Xianggong's closet, took out a piece of Xianggong's clothes, rolled them up, and then returned to the bed, hugged the balls of clothes, and then gradually closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Today is the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the day after tomorrow I can go to the academy to see my husband, which is great!

But before that, she had to quickly compile what she had in hand.

There is only one day left tomorrow, and there is still such a long section, is it well edited?

I can't help it, who made me stupid, if it wasn't for Chef Wang's advice today, I'm afraid I haven't figured out the correct method yet, wouldn't it be a delay for the day after tomorrow...

hey-hey.good night!
