Chapter 53 entanglement
After the Dragon Boat Festival, Gu Yunji's life in Luxi Academy also returned to the right track. He listened to lectures as usual in class every day, and completed the homework assigned by Xu Chengyu after class. His life was very fulfilling.

After the get out of class bell rang that evening, Mr. Chen He was not in a hurry to leave, but cleared his throat, and said to the students in front of him:

"It's almost June, and soon the college will have a semi-annual exam. All students will have to do the same questions, and the results will be ranked. The top [-] can participate in this year's Mid-Autumn Festival. Prepare yourself " After that, he packed up his things and turned to leave.

As soon as Chen He left, the students in the school immediately whispered to each other and chattered.

A student said with a sad face: "Is it really necessary to get through the rankings? We are all scholars, how could we possibly pass the exams? When the results come out and the rankings are at the bottom, what is the point other than embarrassing us?"

"That's not necessarily true." Some people disagreed, "Many people were lucky enough to be admitted in the first place. After all these years, they haven't made much progress. Maybe we won't even pass the exam. You are a scholar, it's normal that you haven't passed the exam; After passing the exam, they are the ones who lose face, what are you afraid of?"

The students next to him came over and said, "That being said, the ranking this time is related to the qualifications to participate in the entertainment fair, so it is better to prepare well. There are many high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the entertainment fair. Why not do it if we can earn a name for ourselves?"

These discussions came to Gu Yunji's ears, but he didn't take them seriously. Hearing what Xu Chengyu said before, even if he didn't get in the top [-], he would use his connections to bring Gu Yunji to the entertainment fair.

Therefore, for Gu Yunji, it is good to do his best in the half-year exam of the academy, and there is no need to compete for a ranking.He was too lazy to participate in the discussion of these people, he packed his things on his own, and went to Xu Chengyu's yard with the homework he had done in advance.

When Gu Yunji arrived at Shanchang's residence, Xu Chengyu happened to be away.As usual, he put his homework on the other party's desk, and was about to turn around and leave when he heard the faint sound of arguing in the inner courtyard.

Xu Shuhua's expression was alienated, he took a step back defensively, and said indifferently: "My father is not here, Mr. Fang may not have gone to the wrong place, you should leave earlier."

Fang Zigui didn't seem to notice her displeasure, and said with a smile: "I didn't want to see Uncle Xu, but I made a special trip to visit Miss Xu."

Xu Shuhua's tone was blunt: "I didn't hear that all the foreign visitors who came to visit have visited the inner courtyard of the house. Besides, I have never had any friendship with Mr. Fang, so it's not worth your special trip."

"You and my father are good friends who have known each other for many years. We grew up together, so close, how can we say we have no friendship?" Fang Zigui didn't care, "Besides, I came here to give you a gift, Why does Miss reject me thousands of miles away?"

As he said that, Fang Zigui opened the brocade box he brought with him, and took out a jade hairpin inside: "I know you just passed the hairpin not long ago, and I bought this hairpin specially for you as a gift for Jiji."

Girls who are 15 years old and Jiji should tie up their hair and fix it with hairpins, which means they have grown up.This hairpin is a personal and intimate thing. Except for the woman's family, generally only the fiancée will take this as a gift. If Fang Zigui was offensive and disrespectful before, now it can be called a debauchery.

"Fang Zigui!" Xu Shuhua really didn't expect the other party to be so bold and rude, and his face turned pale with anger, "You and I have no marriage contract and no relatives. Sending a hairpin as a wedding gift, are you trying to ruin my reputation? ?”

Fang Zigui took a step forward to get closer to her, completely disregarding the consequences of doing so, and his words became more and more excessive: "Shuhua, I'm all for your own good, why would I want to ruin your reputation?"

As he spoke, he kept moving and wanted to move forward. Xu Shuhua took a few steps back and scolded: "Stop! Men and women can't kiss each other. If you continue to entangle like this, I will call someone!"

Seeing that the other party was still ungrateful, Fang Zigui sneered, and lost his previous patience: "Scream, scream! Lonely man and widow, living together in the inner courtyard, if someone bumps into this scene, can you explain it clearly? I am It doesn't matter, but what will they think of you, Miss Xu?"

At this time, Fang Zigui tore up the disguise of a gentle young man before, his face was hideous and terrifying, and he looked at Xu Shuhua with greedy and cruel eyes: "Although you can shout loudly, I'm afraid that when the time comes, rumors will spread, not only you, but even Xu Shuhua." Xu Shanchang has no face to live on."

Hearing this, Xu Shuhua was angry and frightened, tightly clutching the handkerchief in his hand, his lips were bloodless.The other party was right. Women in this era are at a disadvantage. If someone is called at this time, people will not think that Fang Zigui is shameless and dissolute.

Seeing Xu Shuhua's hesitation, Fang Zigui was very proud, and felt that he had caught her, so he slowed down his tone and said in a persuasive way: "Shuhua, I didn't mean any harm, I just wanted to give you a Jiji gift, as long as you accept it Hairpin, I won't force anything."

If you don't accept the hairpin, Fang Zigui will be entangled endlessly. If someone finds out, it will ruin your reputation; if you accept the hairpin, it is equivalent to accepting Fang Zigui's ambiguous behavior. It will become more and more excessive in the future.

Accepting is not, and not accepting is not, is it really impossible to retreat today?Thinking of this, Xu Shuhua closed his eyes in despair.

At this time, Gu Yunji's voice suddenly came from the outer courtyard: "The disciple has seen the teacher! Teacher, why are you coming back now?"

Fang Zigui's face suddenly changed, when did Gu Yunji come?According to this, Xu Chengyu is back too?Xu Chengyu was so defensive, if he caught him pestering his daughter, he would have to peel off his skin if he didn't die.

Hearing the sound from the outer courtyard, the pride on Fang Zigui's face collapsed in an instant, his eyes filled with horror, he recklessly stuffed the hairpin into Xu Shuhua, and said, "Don't talk about today's matter, otherwise you and I will not be bothered." Good fruit to eat", then hurriedly slipped away through the side door.

Xu Shuhua glanced at the hairpin in his hand, wishing to smash it to pieces immediately, and fearing that Xu Chengyu would come in later and see Yuzha and see the clue, so he temporarily put it in his sleeve and hid it.Then she tidied up her appearance, tried her best to pull out a smile, and walked out as if nothing had happened.

"Daddy, didn't you want to discuss the exam questions with Mr. Chen, why now... huh?"

When he walked to the outer courtyard, his father Xu Chengyu was nowhere to be seen. Only Gu Yunji stood alone with his hands behind his back. After hearing the movement, he turned around and showed Xu Shuhua a polite and comforting smile.

Seeing this, Xu Shuhua immediately understood that Xu Chengyu hadn't come back at all, and Gu Yunji had deliberately deceived Fang Zi to return just now.

Thinking that the conversation between the two was very likely to be heard by the other party, she bit her lip in embarrassment, and whispered: "You, heard everything?"
