lady, please calm down

On the second day of July, it's morning and afternoon.

Caizhou Baihua Lane.

Ordinarily, it is far from the time for Goulan to open for business, but the ethereal music and melodious singing can be heard from the backyard of Yunxiu Pavilion.

"The spring dance is performed in front of Baiyuntang, and the east wind blows evenly.

The bees and butterflies are surrounded by the wind and chaos. How many times have the water passed away?

Thousands of threads will never change, let him gather and divide them as he pleases.

There is no reason to laugh at the time: the good wind, with its power, sends me to the blue clouds."

It was just a song by Mei Yao, and the only two audience members in the hall, Chen Chu and Cai Hua, clapped at the same time.

"Master Mei, you can master this song "Linjiang Immortal" overnight, and you can sing the true flavor of it. You are indeed worthy of your reputation!"

Chen Chu touched his palms and praised, Mei Yao stood up and bowed, standing and replied: "Compared to the talent of the prince, the humble skills of the slave family are like fluorescent lights to the bright moon. It is not difficult to master a piece of music in one night, but in the world, it can be mastered in a few tens of breaths. The prince is the only person in my family who has written these words."

This is what happened yesterday evening.

Huaibei is determined to build Caizhou into the world's economic, cultural and entertainment center. Every summer and autumn, various exhibitions and exchange conferences emerge in endlessly.

Yesterday, the academic conference on "The Origin of China" jointly organized by Huaibei University of Literature and the Museum officially opened under the chairmanship of Han Fang and Li Yian.

This meeting gathered a large number of historians and epigraphy experts from Qizhou and Zhou Dynasties. The evening dinner was arranged at the best club in Caizhou, Yunxiu Pavilion Baiyu Hall.

Attending the banquet were not only Chen Chu, Chen Jingan brothers, Zhang Chunxiao, Zhe Keqiu and other senior central and local officials of Qi, but also Chen Bokang, who was staying in Caizhou to discuss the border conflict between Qi and Zhou, and Wang Shu, Minister of War of Zhou, who also wore casual clothes. Attend the banquet in a private capacity.

As literary people, flirting is inevitable when we get together.

After drinking for three rounds, they invited Mei Yao, the most famous person in Qi State, who happened to be "traveling" here, to play some songs.

The reason why Mei Yao is famous is, firstly, because of her basic qualities of "Qin and Color", and secondly, because of the song "Bu Shuzi. Presented to Meiyao" by the King of Chu in his early years.

During the dinner, someone suggested that the King of Chu should compose a song for Mei.

Immediately, a crowd of people started to boo. The people who booed had different ideas. Some people really just wanted to have fun, but more people were unconvinced.

In recent years, in order to help Chen Chu establish his reputation, Ayu compiled and published his poems, many of which are crushing contemporary works.

However, there are many rumors from the outside world that the King of Chu was not proficient in learning, and many people did not believe that this collection of poems was really written by the King of Chu.

Furthermore, Ayu has been known as a talented girl since she was a child, so some people suspect that this collection of poems was ghostwritten by Ayu.

So, half-pushing, half-pushing, Chen Chu only spent a few breaths of thinking before reciting the song "Linjiang Immortal. Catkins Present to Mei Yao II".

As soon as this word came out, no one in the room questioned it. Although the word was inconsistent with the current midsummer season, it was extremely appropriate considering Mei Yao's life experience.

"Bees are surrounded by butterflies and the wind is turbulent. How can they be left behind by the passing water?" The catkins that can only dance with the wind are a metaphor for Mei Yao's wandering life.

Immediately afterwards, the topic changed: "Shaohuaxiu's laughter has no roots: the good wind will send me to the blue clouds with its power." Don't think I have nothing to rely on at the moment. If I encounter an opportunity one day, I can take advantage of the wind and fly straight to the blue clouds.

To others, this "good wind" was probably King Chu saying that although he was a little arrogant, it was the truth and in line with his warrior temperament.

But Mei Yao knew that this was not what Chen Chu meant.

Gossip news spreads the fastest. Last night, before Chen Chu arrived home, the news that "King Chu wrote lyrics for Mei's family again" spread to his home first.

When Chen Chu arrived home late at night, the entire back house of the palace was filled with the smell of old vinegar.

Cai Hua did know some inside information. When Chen Chu came to Yunxiu Pavilion again this morning, she followed him.

"Since the prince made a name for you last night, it will definitely be smoother for Mei and everyone to go to Lin'an in the south." Cai Hua lazily leaned in the Taishi chair, and then said with a smile: "The good wind will send you by force." You go to Qingyun. When you arrive in Lin'an, you should be more attentive. The prince has found a four-bedroom mansion for your family in Tokyo City and has taken your widowed mother and younger siblings there. As long as this matter is done, the prince will buy it for your mother. I will grant you a certain official position for your brother."

Mei Yao walked out from behind the piano stand, bowed and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty, and Thank you, Your Majesty."

Last month, Lin'an wealthy businessman Miao Kui paid a huge sum of money to invite Master Mei to go to Lin'an. He thought that Mei Yao, who had semi-retired, would not agree, but he did not expect that Master Mei actually agreed.

The Caizhou Five-Day Talk also reported on the incident and commented very positively, saying that the incident was a good deed that promoted cultural exchanges between the two countries.

However, Mei Yao's popularity in Zhou State was not as good as that in Qi State.

That's why yesterday Chen Chu made a name for Mei Yao in front of many Zhou Guoxian. The woman who was so famous all over the world that the king of Chu sent two poems to her must be a strange woman, right?

Today, several Huaibei newspapers have published the new words.

This is to build momentum for the Qi State's great singer to tour Lin'an of the Zhou State soon. Don't the dignitaries want to meet and listen to the fairy music?

Among the entourage who followed Mei Yao south this time, there was a complete military command team. Their mission was not specific, but they used the cover of Mei Yao and Miao Kui to establish an intelligence network in the local area and get as close as possible to the top officials of Zhou State. direction.

At the beginning of noon, Cai Hua gave some important details to Mei Yao.

Erlang knocked on the door and came in, saying, "Weng Bingding, the steward of the front house, wants to see him."

Chen Chu couldn't help but wonder, how could the old man find this place just after he left home? Is there something urgent at home?

When I went out to meet the old man, I learned that the manager of the Huaibei Army Disabled Retirement Resettlement Office had just found the house and handed over a post.

When I opened it, I saw that it was Jiacheng parents. Please come to the school around noon today to meet.

Chen Chu was stunned for a long time before he realized that he was being called a parent? ? ?

In April, Jiakui, Jiaxi and others came to Caizhou with Chen Chu, and Chen Chu arranged for them to enter Lanxiang Academy.

Jiacheng and the others had no relatives in Caizhou, and the only parent contact they had left was Chen Chu, their cheap brother-in-law.

Even though I have been away from school for many years, calling my parents made me, a powerful official of the Qi Dynasty, nervous.

At 2:00 noon, Chen Chu took only Lao Bai, Xiao Yierlang and a few others to the school in the north of the city in a low-key manner.

Unexpectedly, he ran into trouble when he entered the door.

The janitor of the girls' school is a retired soldier from Huaibei. Three fingers are missing from his right hand and there is a scar under his jaw.

Even though he took off his military uniform, his fierceness was still there.

Today, unlike later generations, there are televisions, videos, and photos that can quickly spread images. There are tens of thousands of people in the Huaibei Army, and 99% of the soldiers have never seen the true face of the King of Chu.

Seeing that Chen Chu and the others were not very old, the military man thought they were rich kids who came to the girls' school to flirt, so he immediately stopped them and said, "What are you doing! This is Lanxiang Girls' School, men stop!"

"We are parents of students." The white-haired rat knew that King Chu did not want to reveal his identity, so he hurriedly stepped forward to talk.

But his face had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and without the power bonus of the military uniform, he looked even less like a good person.

The military man frowned and looked at Lao Bai up and down, "Tomorrow is a holiday, but you can't leave school until Youshi today. You guys are early."

Seeing this, Chen Chu stepped forward and said, "We are not here to pick up people."

"Then what are you doing?" The soldier remained vigilant.

"My um, the child at home has made some mistakes. Sir, please ask the parents to come over."

Only then did Chen Chu realize that it was really embarrassing why his parents were so angry when he went to school when he got into trouble.

After some verification and registration, Chen Chu finally entered the campus.

Most of those who dared to come to the school to apply for female teachers grew up in an era when the atmosphere was gradually opening up after Chen Chu came to Caizhou. They had one thing in common, they were bolder than the women of the previous generation.

She often regards the heroine Princess Chu and Shen Tietan, leader of the Second Guards Regiment, as idols.

Naturally, these female gentlemen are not very old either, not much older than Hutou and Jiacheng.

Chen Chu followed the soldier's instructions and came outside the gentleman's duty room.

Similar to later generations, teachers in the school also shared a room of the same age.

In the duty room, Teacher Lin, who was not yet twenty years old, was discussing the morning scene with several colleagues of similar age.

"Xiao Lin, I heard someone say that the parents of Zhao Xiangyi, who is in the second grade of middle school, are the boss of Luliuwei Farm Reclamation."

Colleagues vaguely reminded Mr. Lin, Jiacheng's teacher, that the conflict between students in the morning might be a bit troublesome.

But Mr. Lin felt that as Jiacheng's teacher, he had to protect his students, so he made a point for Jiacheng, "Liu Jiacheng in our class was personally arranged by Chief Li Shan. We called the parents to come, is it? In order to sort out the crooked fingers, it is not a matter of family background."

Seeing this, the colleague smiled and stopped trying to persuade him. Instead, he agreed, "That's true. This morning, Professor Ma found a complete set of Chinese cosmetics in Zhao Xiangyi's dormitory, but Liu Jiacheng's panda bag in your class also just came out. It’s a new style! It’s not bad considering your family background.” Someone immediately said, “Yes! Today’s parents are so spoiled for their children, they buy hundreds of taels of bags at the drop of a hat.”

Mr. Lin nodded in agreement, "When I met the parents of Jiacheng today, I just wanted to warn them that spoiling children is like killing children. They must not let them start to compare themselves at a young age."

'Tuk Tuk~'

While several people were talking, they suddenly heard a knock on the door and couldn't help but look over.

The door to the check-in room was wide open, and the visitor had to knock it as a courtesy.

The man outside the door has a pine-like posture, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and has a mighty and restrained and capable demeanor.

Having been in an all-girls school for a long time and rarely having contact with men, the eyes of several female teachers could not help but linger on the men for a few seconds.

"Hello gentlemen, I am Liu Jiachuan's cousin Chen Yidao. Who is Mr. Lin?"

As soon as Chen Chu spoke, Mr. Lin came back to his senses, stood up immediately, and said hastily: "That's me."

When the other people saw Mr. Lin's face turned slightly red, they couldn't help but smile knowingly.

"Xiao Lin, let me help you call Jiacheng over."

Immediately, the colleagues had left the duty room for their own reasons.

One of the younger female gentlemen went out, thought for a moment, then turned and ran to the other row of gentlemen at the back to check the room.

He trotted to the door and saw that the Mr. Li he was looking for happened to be in the house. He couldn't help shouting: "Diel, Dai'er, the parents of Liu Jiachuan, Class 3B, are here. He's her cousin. She's so beautiful. See Xiao Lin. His face turned red. He must not be married, otherwise why wouldn't Jiachuan's cousin come? You'll see him later..."

It wasn't until the young gentleman rushed into the check-in room that he realized that Mr. Li was not alone in the room. Opposite the latter, there were two women, one sitting and one standing, who seemed to be masters and servants.

The woman sitting there was about twenty years old, with a pair of peach blossom eyes that made the woman feel a little frightened when she saw her. She was sitting there without saying a word, but there was an aura of nobility lingering around her.

The little sister came to report, and Mr. Li naturally knew that the other party was kind-hearted. Recently, Huaibei advocates independence in marriage. The female gentlemen in the school are financially independent and active in thinking, so they are naturally the pioneers in the trend of independence.

Jiakui could afford hundreds of taels of bags, and her family background was naturally very good. If her cousin was as the little sister said, he would be a good match if he was unmarried and had a lot of money.

But right now, Zhao Xiangyi's sister is still here, so it is naturally not a good time to discuss major life events.

After sending the little sister away with two words, Li Daier stood up and closed the door of the check-in room, then opened the drawer and took out the items that were found in Hutou's residence this morning one by one.

"The Story of the East Chamber", "Lotus Pavilion", "First Encounter with Qifengling".

The first thing he took out were five or six miscellaneous books. Mao'er rarely read these messy books, so he couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Seeing this, Li Dai'er thought about it and explained: "Ms. Zhao, I am still young and reading these miscellaneous books."

Li Dai'er didn't know how to explain it anymore, so she simply opened the lotus pavilion, found a marked page and showed it to the cat.

'Arms are in each other's arms, lips are touching'

The cat only took one look and understood.

Love stories always involve the obsessive entanglement between men and women. Although some of the descriptions in the book are not explicit, the suspicion of estrangement cannot be eradicated.

Mao'er's face immediately turned red, and anger caused by shame immediately arose in her heart. Of course, it was not towards the teacher, but towards Hu Tou.

But when his eyes fell on "First Encounter with Qifengling", he couldn't help but ask, "Is there a problem with this?"

She knew this storybook, it was about Maoer and Chen Chu, but she used pseudonyms.

"Oh, this book is nothing." It is indeed nothing. After all, no one in Huaibei dares to arrange the king and princess of Chu. The content of this book is not only clean, but also positive. Li Daier only said: "But it's not good for Xiangyi to read these love stories all day long."

Mao'er nodded in agreement, and then Li Dai'er took out a complete set of fragrances, and they were the most expensive ones.

This time, Mao'er didn't need to ask at all to know who the mole in the family was who doted on Hutou too much. Oh yeah, someone's monthly money is going to be gone again!

And it is possible that this time it will be more than just a monthly fine.

But that wasn't the end yet. The last thing Li Dai'er took out made Mao'er so embarrassed that she almost found a crack in the ground to crawl in.

Pink and white Aolai underwear, and there are several pairs, and they are also embroidered with cute patterns such as cat claws and pandas using not-so-fine female red.

Mao'er forced herself to suppress it, suppressed her embarrassment and anger, and simply said, "Mr. Li, please call Zhao Xiangyi over."

Li Dai'er glanced at Mao'er worriedly and advised: "Ms. Zhao, only Director Ma and I know about these obscene clothes and miscellaneous books. Mrs. Zhao can teach her slowly after she returns home. It's better not to beat or scold her."

"Please, Mr. Li, please call her over." Mao'er lowered her eyelids and was noncommittal to Li Dai'er's suggestion.

Xiao Man, who was standing on one side, couldn't help but secretly glance at Mao'er's thin back, and began to worry about the tiger head that he had grown up with since childhood.

Not long after, Li Daier led Hutou back to the room on duty.

Hutou had already had a premonition that today was going to be bad, but just before leaving the classroom, he still told Sandra Ng what his father and brothers often said back then, 'If a man dies and the bird faces upward, he will not die for tens of millions of years! '

But Sandra Ng, who was also a little scared, said: "But we don't have any birds."

Even though he had done enough self-encouragement, when he entered the check-in room and saw Sister looking at him with tight lips, Hutou still felt weak and subconsciously showed a flattering smile, "Sister, why are you here?"

The cat didn't answer, just stared at the tiger's head.

Hutou has never seen his sister looking at his sister with such beautiful eyes. In the past, those eyes were full of love and care, but now, in addition to being stern, there is also a trace of disappointment in the peach blossom eyes.

Hutou was not afraid of being scolded, but he was very afraid of the look in his sister's eyes at this moment.

He couldn't help but rub his clothes and lowered his head.

For some reason, he felt sad. Because he saw his mother being murdered when he was young, Hutou was extremely insecure, especially on snowy days.

But at that time, her brother and sister were there, and she didn't dare to sleep until it was snowing. Her brother and sister would sandwich her in the middle, holding her brother's thumb with one hand and holding her sister with the other. Only with my thumb can I fall asleep.

But later on, she grew up, her brother became busier and busier, and her sister had Ji'er and Ran'er. Hutou, who was in a sensitive adolescence, could clearly feel the neglect of her brother and sister because they were not as energetic as they were.

In order to appear 'sensible', Hutou has worked very hard to get rid of his dependence on his brother and sister, and tried to find some fun things to share with his little sisters.

Hutou is sad because she disappointed her sister.

The atmosphere was dull when suddenly Teacher Lin walked in leading Chen Chu and Jiacheng.

Mao'er seemed to have known that Chen Chu would come, but Chen Chu didn't expect Mao'er to be there, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Teacher Lin hadn't noticed anything unusual yet, so he came in and introduced to Li Dai'er and Mao'er: "This is Brother Chen, Jiacheng's elder brother. The matter between Jiacheng and Xiangyi is a misunderstanding."

This is to allow parents on both sides to persuade their children to reconcile with each other.

This is also considered normal processing flow.

But the cat, who was already angry, pouted at Chen Chu. The cat naturally heard what the yelling young gentleman said just now.

Look, the official and Mr. Lin have only known each other for a long time, and they already call him "Brother Chen". The official is always attracting bees and butterflies wherever he goes!

"Madam, why are you here?"

When Chen Chu said something, everyone in the room was shocked.

Messrs. Lin and Li were confused.

Jiacheng, who was standing obediently next to Chen Chu, also looked at Mao'er in surprise.

While everyone was stunned, Hu Tou, who was standing aside with his head down, suddenly rushed over and raised his hand to pull Jiacheng aside, who was next to Chen Chu.

Jiakui staggered and took two steps back to steady himself.

This scene caught everyone off guard.

The two gentlemen opened their mouths in shock. Could it be that Zhao Xiangyi wanted to hit someone in front of his brother Jiacheng?

The cat was even more furious. He stood up and scolded: "Tiger Head! That's too presumptuous!"

But Hu Tou didn't seem to hear anything. He just raised his head stubbornly and looked at Chen Chu with those peach blossom eyes that were similar to his sister's.

"Hutou, what's wrong with you?" Monk Chen Chuzhang was confused. In his memory, Hutou had never been so unruly.

"elder brother."

As soon as Hu Tou opened his mouth, his eye sockets turned red at first, and then water vapor quickly filled his eyes, and tears flowed down first, "If brother is her brother, then who is Hu Tou's brother!"

The tiger's head pointed at Jiale, and the more she talked, the more tears she shed. Once the grievances accumulated due to being ignored in the past two years were vented, they could no longer be held back. "Sister, I already belong to Ji'er and Ran'er, and I don't want my brother." Has it lost its head?" (End of Chapter)
