Song Yi

Chapter 642
Du Wenhao strolled back to Wang Runxue's yard, and seeing that the light in the room was on, she must have gotten up, so he walked over.

He heard Ruoyu talking to Wang Runxue in the room.I just heard Ruoyu say: "Second Madam, you don't know, that stone is really powerful, and even said that our servants should not be the same size as the master, who does he think he is, when I followed you and the master, no Knowing where he still begs for food, he is really favored, and his eyes grow to the top of his head."

Du Wenhao walked in the door with a smile. Ruoyu was dressing Wang Runxue. Seeing Du Wenhao, Wang Runxue got up quickly. For some reason, her heart was pounding and she didn't dare to look directly into Du Wenhao's eyes.

Du Wenhao saw Wang Runxue's expression and knew that she was still thinking about her indulgence after drunkenness. He secretly smiled in his heart, pretended not to see it, motioned them to continue, then sat down and said, "Why do you all complain when this stone becomes a housekeeper?"

Wang Runxue said: "Why, does my husband know about this?"

Du Wenhao told Wang Runxue what he had just come from the backyard.

Ruoyu said: "Look, the sky is really going to be turned upside down."

After finishing combing, Wang Runxue stood up and said with a smile: "I don't think anyone cares about you anymore, but you are about to turn the world upside down. You see, the master has been here for so long, you should ask Ruoyun to pour tea for the master right away." .”

Ruoyu stuck out her tongue and quickly poured tea for Du Wenhao.

Du Wenhao said: "At the beginning, you were not used to it. Your second wife and eldest lady have always indulged you. We have only arrived in Xiushan County not long ago, and there are not too many guests. If we were in Song Dynasty, we would always Someone is going to laugh at us behind our backs."

Ruoyu didn't dare to speak anymore, and obediently stood aside and listened.

Wang Runxue went to Du Wenhao's side, and said: "The master is right. Besides, when Licorice came to bring me pastries, he said that the stone is actually quite protective of you in front of us masters. It turned out that the kitchen made a mistake. Things, but he said that he didn’t order them, so he took them all from himself.”

After hearing this, Ruoyu said, "I hope so, anyway, slaves are not used to it."

Wang Runxue smiled, and said: "I still said I'm not used to it, you see I taught you a lesson just now, you already know that you don't want to talk about me in front of us anymore."

Ruoyu finally came to her senses, looked at Du Wenhao and Wang Runxue, felt embarrassed, Du Wenhao and Wang Runxue laughed.

After a few days.

Early in the morning, when Du Wenhao got up, Wang Runxue was still asleep, which was not common. When she woke up by herself on weekdays, Wang Runxue had already gone out.

Opening the door, I saw Huoxiang, Ruoyu, and Ruoyun standing outside the door, and said: "What are you three doing at the door, you scared me!"

Huoxiang replied respectfully: "Master, the three of us have been waiting at the door, thinking that you and the second lady should get up, so I will wait for you to wash up."

Du Wenhao smiled and said, "Is that Stone's idea again?"

Ruoyun said: "Yes, if the masters and wives shouldn't see us after waking up, instead looking around, it's because we are servants."

Du Wenhao nodded, the three of them shouted, and immediately came out of the next room a few rough maidservants, carrying washbasins and water cups.

Du Wenhao said with a smile: "Just outside the door, your second wife is still asleep, don't wake her up."

"Yes" Huoxiang and the other three replied in unison.

After Du Wenhao washed up, Yingzi came over with Ke'er.

"Master, do you have your breakfast in the front yard or have the kitchen deliver it to you?" Yingzi asked.

Du Wenhao said with a smile: "Haha, it's only been a few days, you seem to be different people, but I'm not used to it, how do you know I'm up?"

Yingzi smiled and said: "The butler has ordered that you come together, so he asked the maid in the garden to report to the kitchen. I happened to be watching the meals of the ladies in the kitchen, so I came to ask you."

Du Wenhao said: "The stone is quite unique, are you used to it now?"

Huo Xiang said: "He's actually pretty good, although he's usually serious, he won't intentionally make things difficult for us."

Ruoyun said: "That's right, it doesn't look like a servant coming from the family of a member of the outsider. He has a set and a set, and he is very powerful."

Ruoyun's words reminded Du Wenhao that Shitou has a sense of propriety in doing things, and the respect for his master really does not want to be trained by an ordinary person.

Yingzi said: "He is very interesting. He likes Keer very much. He even trains Keer to eat meat. Keer yells at him. The more he yells, the happier he is."

Du Wenhao said: "Okay, let's not talk about him, I can go to the front yard for dinner, by the way, the second lady will get up later, let her go to the eldest lady."

Ruoyu said: "Yes, master."

Du Wenhao walked out with a smirk.

After dinner, Du Wenhao went to see Ke Yao first, probably because he was young, and secondly, he had practiced kung fu, and his body was not bad. She had been lying on the ground for forty days, and only ten days later, she got out of bed. The gift of God was given to the nanny to look after, and she just read books and practiced calligraphy, which can be regarded as contented.

Back to Pang Yuqin, Wang Runxue and Lin Qingdai had already passed, and the stone was there.

When Du Wenhao saw the stone, he smiled and said, "I heard that you are teaching Ke'er to eat meat?"

Shi Shi smiled slightly, and said: "Yes, but that little guy is very stubborn, he only eats vegetarian food, and he doesn't care about the flesh, otherwise he wouldn't grow up so small."

Lin Qingdai said: "It has always been a vegetarian, so you don't have to force it."

Shitou said, "Yes, Fifth Madam."

Wang Runxue said: "Shitou came over and said that the family can properly add some nursing homes. Now the army is in turmoil, and it is a bit unsafe."

Du Wenhao said: "This is his business, if you want to do it, do it, don't ask us everything."

Shitou said: "My lord has more trust in this servant, but I still dare not make decisions about the increase or decrease of manpower."

Pang Yuqin said: "Nowadays there are more and more refugees, this battle will not really come to Xiushan County?"

Shitou said: "Probably not. Xiushan County is a good place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as the capital does not fall, it should be safe here. But adding some guards to the house, the servant thinks it is a precautionary measure."

Du Wenhao said with a smile: "Then it's the same as Yanjiazhai, adding some organs and secret passages."

Du Wenhao was joking, but Shitou said: "What the master said is very true, the servant also has the same idea, but he dare not make his own decisions."

Du Wenhao groaned and said, "Is it really going to be like this?"

Shitou said: "This servant only thinks so, it's all up to the master and the wives to decide."

Du Wenhao said: "Our house is not too big if you say it is big, and it's not too small if you say it's small. It's a big project, and we should plan it slowly."

Shitou said: "Master is still thoughtful."

Wang Runxue said: "My name is Qingdai because of the Nursing Academy. The Nursing Academy is different from other servants and needs some fists and kicks. Shitou also suggests that Sister Qingdai choose the ones that are suitable for her. Master, what do you think?"

Du Wenhao said: "The stone should be able to do some kung fu, right?"

Shitou said: "The slave is dull, how can he know how to punch, it's just that he has some stupid strength, it's all up to the fifth lady."

Du Wenhao said: "That's fine, Qing Dai has to pay more attention to this matter."

Shitou said: "There is one more thing, this servant dares to talk to the master and the three wives."

Pang Yuqin said, "Just tell me."

Shitou said: "The servant carefully inspected every place in the garden, and found that the courtyard wall is not high, can it be raised?"

Du Wenhao laughed, and said: "I think you said that we can't fight us in Xiushan County, which one of your arrangements is not a preparation for avoiding the chaos of war?"

Shi Shi was a little embarrassed, and said: "The master is far-sighted, and he can see the slave's mind at a glance. The slave is also worried. After all, there are many women and children in the family. It is really enough to resist the enemy. This wall is not enough. At that time, I am afraid that we will only be able to fight against the enemy." Being able to hide from other lands, building this high wall is mainly to guard against soldiers, bandits and bandits, as well as thieves who take advantage of the troubled waters."

Du Wenhao said: "Okay, you can decide these things yourself."

Shitou said: "Thank you, master, that servant has gone out to do some work."

Pang Yuqin said: "By the way, Zhuzi said, you want him to go to the capital to learn cooking?"

Shi Shi said: "Yes, Da Furen, although Zhu Zi is careful and conscientious, his culinary skills are indeed a little inferior, and there are often guests at home, and they always let Yingzi girl cook. I don't know if it's appropriate for two newly recruited cooks to go to some big restaurants in the capital to learn how to cook?"

Wang Runxue said: "This idea is not bad, but Zhu Zi and the other two cooks have left, we have nothing to do with each other, what about the meals of the eldest lady and the sixth lady?"

Shitou said: "This slave has made up his mind, they will come back within a month, and during this period, I will cook the meals in the eldest lady's room and the sixth lady's room."

Lin Qingdai looked at Shi Shi in surprise and said, "You can cook?"

Shi Shi said: "I have studied for a few years, I am not good at it but I am passable, why don't I cook a meal for the master and wife tonight?"

Du Wenhao said: "I think it can."

Stone bowed and bowed softly, then closed the door and walked away.
Pang Yuqin said: "This stone looks good."

Du Wenhao suddenly thought of Ruoyun's words, and felt that Shitou's thoughts were far-reaching, his words were polite, and his work was thoughtful, so he couldn't help being suspicious, but he didn't say it out loud.

Wang Runxue said, "Master, what are you thinking about?"

Only then did Du Wenhao come to his senses, and said: "Just to discuss with you, among the things Mr. Yang gave us, I let Qingdai take a look, there are fields and shops, and there are more than [-] tenants who can collect rent. If it is handed over to us, we should go and ask."

Pang Yuqin said: "Then the stone was there just now, why didn't my husband tell you?"

Wang Runxue said: "My sister forgot. After all, the stone has only been here for more than ten days. He has never taken over the money matter. I don't plan to let him take care of everything so soon. I think the master probably has this idea."

Du Wenhao said: "What I'm talking about is, I heard from Qingdai that besides a small part of the large open land behind our villa, which we bought when we bought this house, the other nearly 30 mu of land is in the In the land deed that Mr. Yang gave us, he probably also considered giving it to us in this way, so we can arrange it, so I think we can expand the house."

Wang Runxue said: "Everything is up to the master, you can do whatever you say."

Lin Qingdai said: "I will take a look at the fields when I have time, and the shop will trouble the second lady to take someone to look at it."

Wang Runxue said: "Then let Lian'er and Yulan go, Mr. Xianggong, do you think it is appropriate to bring the stone?"

Du Wenhao said: "That's also possible, I think he has a lot of ideas, so let's do it."

Lin Qingdai hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice: "I think this stone doesn't want to be a servant, but like a rich family."

Wang Runxue was stunned for a moment, and said, "I guess not? Didn't you say he was a servant?"

Du Wenhao said: "No matter what, let's get busy with the things in front of us first."

After leaving Pang Yuqin's yard, Wang Runxue was busy with her own affairs, and Du Wenhao and Lin Qingdai went to the front yard while talking.

"Wen Hao, I just feel strange looking at the stone." Lin Qingdai talked about this matter again.

Du Wenhao said: "Anyway, you are going to choose a nursing home recently, you might as well give him a try."

Lin Qingdai said: "You mean..."

Du Wenhao said: "Come here with your ears." After speaking, he whispered a few times in Lin Qingdai's ear, Lin Qingdai smiled and nodded.

Lin Qingdai said: "There are three more days and it will be fifteen, this time who do you want to go to Yuanshan County with me to buy medicinal materials?"

Du Wenhao said: "You must go, thank you for your hard work, why don't you take the stone with you."

Lin Qingdai smiled and said, "I thought of going with you."

Du Wenhao said: "We can always think of one place, can't we?"

When the two of them arrived at the front yard, Shi Shi came over and said, "Fifth Madam, all the guards have arrived, and they are waiting for you."

Du Wenhao let the two of them go, and he asked his servants to prepare a car and go to Wuweitang, without further ado.

In the evening, when Du Wenhao returned home, the stone sent a letter to Du Wenhao's study. Du Wenhao opened it and saw that it was just a painting. There were mountains and water in the painting. , there is a woman standing beside the bamboo grove, but it is only the back view, without a word.

Du Wenhao looked familiar, thought for a long time with the painting, and said to Shi Shi, "Who sent it?"

Shitou said: "A young man, the slave happened to be in the porter, so he took it away. The man didn't say anything, handed it to me and left."

Du Wenhao looked at it and said, "Why is there not a single word?"

Shitou said: "The slave doesn't know either."

Du Wenhao let the stone back down, put the painting on the desk, sat down and looked at it again, and found a bird on the top of the mountain. The painting was so small that it couldn't be seen unless you looked carefully. : "Yanzi, Yanzi, hahaha, interesting, this girl is even playing riddles for me."

Huoxiang came in with tea, saw Du Wenhao talking to himself, and said, "Master is so happy?"

Du Wenhao said: "The old man has sent a letter."

Huoxiang put the tea in front of Du Wenhao, looked at the painting, and said, "Isn't it just a painting? Where is the letter?"

Du Wenhao said with a smile: "Why don't we say that the person who wrote the letter is weird?"

Huoxiang looked at it for a long time, and said: "Did you say anything in the letter?"

Du Wenhao said: "I didn't say anything."

Wang Runxue came in, saw the painting, and said, "Who said nothing? I can see what was said."

Du Wenhao said: "But the painting is the scenery of Yanjiazhai. The bird on the top of the mountain is a swallow, and the swallow is Yan Zi, which is Zi'er's name."

Wang Runxue said: "It can also be understood like Xianggong, but it can also be a poem."

Du Wenhao said: "Oh? Then tell me and I'll listen to you?"

Wang Runxue looked at the painting and said, "Please try to ask Dong Liushui, and don't care who is right or wrong with it."

Du Wenhao smiled and said: "Look at you, I don't think Zi'er has such intentions."

Wang Runxue said: "There is one more sentence, do you want to hear it?"

Du Wenhao said: "Okay, let's talk about it."

Wang Runxue said: "Last year I bid farewell to my neighbors, but now I am surprised that the thatched cottage is new, and the flowers bloom in dialogue, so I am not the old owner of the village."

Huo Xiang said: "Although I don't know any poems, I think the latter one is more appropriate."

Du Wenhao said: "Haha, what Huoxiang said is right, I think it is. This poem not only fits the scene, but also fits Yan Zi's name. This poem should be Yan Lai of Tang Dynasty poet Wei Zhuang, right?"

Wang Runxue said: "Mr. Xiang has a really good memory, exactly!"

On the second day, Sun He invited Du Wenhao to a banquet, and Du Wenhao arrived as scheduled.

room.

Sun He said: "I have already approved my resignation to the imperial court, but I have to wait three months for the new county magistrate to take office before I can leave. I don't have much time to drink with my husband. I didn't feel it before, but now I think about it and I feel a little bit reluctant."

Du Wenhao said with a smile: "I have never asked about the hometown of my lord. Is it a long way?"

Sun He said: "It's not very far to the south, so I must invite you to stay there for a few days."

Du Wenhao thought to himself that the autumn exam was over, and he wondered how Liu Zixu did in the exam, and the day when the rankings would be released was not far away, he never asked anyone to bring a letter, and he didn't know what the situation was.

Du Wenhao said: "Miss Sun is in a good mood?"

Sun He said: "My little girl is fine, alas, actually, her mother and I also know that she is not satisfied with the Feng family's marriage, and I still miss that Liu Zixu, that poor scholar who taught her."

Du Wenhao just let out an oh, didn't say much, just drank his own wine with his head down.

Sun He said: "Now the little girl's marriage has become a heart problem for me. If you have any good solutions, you might as well tell me. I will be very grateful."

Du Wenhao said: "Is there any good way for me? Generally, you officials and officials say that you are a good match. I am an ordinary person. What good way can I do?"

Sun He said: "It's not that Mister has a good solution, it's just that he doesn't want to tell me." After speaking, he looked at Du Wenhao meaningfully and smiled.

Du Wenhao also said with a smile: "My lord, this is wrong. I really have no good solution. If I think some people are good, my husband may not like them, so I should drink and eat meat."

Sun He said: "Look, I know that my family, Le Qi, believes in Mr., and there are other reasons besides the grace of saving his life. Tell me quickly, don't make me wait."

Du Wenhao said: "It's too early to say now, it's better to wait a few days."

Sun He was puzzled, and said, "Sir, what's the deal with you?"

Du Wenhao smiled but didn't answer, he only focused on drinking. Sun He was impatient, so he simply stood up and said, "Oh, sir, you're still stable, I'm going to die of panic."

Du Wenhao signaled Sun He to sit down, then said with a smile, "Le Qi is not in a hurry, what are you in a hurry for?"

Sun He said: "Of course she is not in a hurry, but according to the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words, if she is not in a hurry, it is the shyness of her daughter's family. I have to be in a hurry."

Du Wenhao said: "If you are in a hurry, there is nothing I can do. Either you can wait for me for ten days, or you can find a way by yourself."

Sun He said helplessly: "I think Mr. can not only see a doctor but also tell fortunes. Is it an auspicious day in ten days, so it is suitable to ask about my family Le Qi's lifelong happiness?"

Du Wenhao nodded and said, "Exactly!"

Sun He said with a wry smile: "Okay, okay, okay, just listen to the master."

The next day, as soon as Du Wenhao arrived at Wuweitang, he heard from the people who came to see the doctor that the autumn test had released the rankings, so Du Wenhao asked people to rush to find out if Liu Zixu's name was there. Wen Hao was annoyed at first, and then thought, Liu Zixu didn't donate an official in Xiushan County, so there was nothing he could do if he was anxious. At night, Le Qi also came over to ask questions. It seemed that everyone was anxious, but that There is still no news from Liu Zixu.

In a blink of an eye, Lin Qingdai took Shitou to Yuanshan County to buy medicinal materials, because there were a lot of refugees on the way. She has always been considerate in her work, but it was inconvenient for Lin Qingdai to be alone on the road, so she asked Murong Yulan to go with her. Anyway, Murong Yulan has been helping out at Wuweitang, and she also wanted to learn more about medicine. It was a good opportunity, so I agreed immediately. Early in the morning, everyone packed their luggage, took two carriages, bid farewell to their family and set off.

As soon as Shi Shi left, Wang Runxue realized that there were indeed a lot of changes in the family. In the past, she still felt that she was too busy to finish her work. Now, Shi Shi made the rules for everything. Whoever should do what should be done by himself, such as washing clothes. Clothes, cooking, cooking, maids only do their own duties, and servants are not allowed to enter the master's inner courtyard without urgent matters. Each inner courtyard is equipped with a small porter, and the newly entered twenty nursing homes, Patrol day and night, the heightening project of the courtyard wall of the house is almost completed, and the finishing work, the stones are also handed over to the foreman in charge. Wang Runxue doesn't have to worry at all, just pay the bill.

Since she doesn't have any business of her own, Wang Runxue is also happy to be at leisure. Occasionally reading and writing in the room or being a female celebrity is very comfortable, so she feels that the stone is indeed a very good helper.

On the fourth day of the autumn test, Liu Zixu came back.

When Du Wenhao heard that Liu Zixu was back, he rushed to the hall in a hurry, but saw Liu Zixu kneeling at the door with two huge wooden sticks on his back. Seeing Du Wenhao coming, he kowtowed on the ground.

Du Wenhao's heart sank, he walked up to Liu Zixu, and said, "What are you doing?"

"Students should be damned, they are here to apologize to Mister."

Du Wenhao sighed softly, and said: "If you fail this year, we will pass the exam next year. Hurry up and get up."

Liu Zixu said: "It's not that he didn't pass the exam, the student has been taken care of by Mr., this time he passed the exam, he is the top three."

Du Wenhao was happy when he heard that, and said: "That's a good thing, then what are you kneeling here for, get up quickly."

Liu Zixu lowered his head and said, "Students are so hateful that they dare not stand up to speak. Only after listening to the master's slap on the students, did the students dare to stand up and clarify the truth."

Du Wenhao burst into tears when he saw Liu Zixu talking, thinking that usually this is a person with the kind of arrogance unique to the stinky old nine, often saying that a man has gold under his knees and only kneels to the sky and his parents. I have knelt down more than once, but I have never seen him so lost, Du Wenhao felt that something was wrong

"What does it mean to clarify the truth? It's not too late to punish after you speak up." Du Wenhao said.

Only then did Liu Zixu raise his head, and said with a face full of shame: "Students really deserve to die, they shouldn't have had a few extra drinks on a whim on the day the results were released, and then wandered the streets."

Du Wenhao said: "You really deserve to die. Le Qi sent people to ask about your news every day, but you got drunk happily and didn't come back to tell us."

Liu Zixu said in pain: "I wanted to come back the next day, but who would have thought..." After finishing speaking, he raised his fist and slammed it hard on his head.

Du Wenhao said: "Okay, don't fight anymore, you need to speak out about the big things, so we can solve them."

Liu Zixu shook his head and said: "There is no way to solve it, this time there is really no way to solve it."

Du Wenhao was in a hurry, and scolded: "Why does a dignified seven-foot man always say that there is nothing he can do when he encounters a situation? When I see you like this, I can't wait...I can't wait to kick you to death!"

Liu Zixu was crying sporadically, with tears and snot mixed together, looking like a helpless child.

Du Wenhao said: "Are you saying it or not? Look at you, if you are asked to be a county magistrate in the future, will you come back and cry for me if you encounter problems?"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

"Hurry up and shut up, what are you talking about? Firstly, I don't have a son as big as you, and secondly, I don't have a son as weak as you. If you don't say it, just leave and don't be an eyesore in front of me." Said After that, Du Wenhao turned around and went out, Liu Zixu grabbed Du Wenhao's feet and burst into tears, causing all the servants around to look sideways.

Du Wenhao kicked Liu Zixu away viciously, and said, "Don't you always flaunt yourself as a straight and proud man? Then you get up for me, and you haven't said anything yet, just look at you and cry like this."

Liu Zixu wiped away his tears, still knelt down, and said: "That day I drank some wine and got a little tipsy, so I was wandering in the street, unexpectedly I met a young lady from a family who chose words to marry, I didn't know it was The young lady was choosing... so I answered all the questions they asked, and then the examiner put me on a sedan chair. I was dizzy at the time, and for some reason, I arrived at a mansion behind a barrier A woman's voice asked me some questions, and then let me go. I went back to the inn and slept until dawn. When I woke up, the official announcer came, and a matchmaker was waiting in the lobby. That's when I realized... Sir, I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it."

Du Wenhao understood from Liu Zixu's intermittent words, it turned out that he came over with two sticks on his back to say that there was no solution. For a long time, I was busy, and actually staged a Song Dynasty version of Wang Baochuan and Xue Pinggui, which is really ridiculous.

"Then why did you come to me? You should go to Le Qi, you are a foresight, you already know what your future will be before you pass the exam, congratulations, Mr. Liu, oh no, you should be called Liu Consort .” Du Wenhao sneered.

Liu Zixu said: "Sir, don't say that about the students. I'm not the kind of heartless person, but I got into such a disaster because I was greedy for a while, so I came back non-stop and begged the teacher to make decisions for the students."

Wang Runxue heard that there was a lot of noise in the hall, and many servants were discussing secretly, and when she saw Wang Runxue bringing Ruoyu and Ruoyun over, she hurriedly left.

Wang Runxue walked to the hall and saw Liu Zixu kneeling in front of Du Wenhao with two sticks on his back, in great pain, while Du Wenhao turned his back to Liu Zixu with a gloomy face.

"What's the matter, Mr. Liu, get up quickly and speak up if you have something to say."

"Second Madam, the student is ashamed. I am ashamed of my husband and your expectations of the student. You let the student be beaten to death in front of the teacher. The student will feel better."

Du Wenhao said: "Whoever dares to beat you, the new champion, you better get up and go, I can't stand you kneeling here together."

Wang Runxue heard what Du Wenhao said, and said happily: "I passed the exam?! Good thing, why did it happen like this? Get up quickly, everyone is watching, what's the matter?"

Liu Zixu said: "Second madam doesn't know something. The student made a big mistake because of his greed for a while. Sir, he has worked so hard for me for my Miss Sun's family, but now because of the student's ignorance, he has attracted the attention of an adult daughter in the capital. , I... I really deserve to die..." As he spoke, he raised his hand and slapped him fiercely in the face.

Wang Runxue sighed softly, and said: "Master, don't get angry, I don't think Liu Zixu has intentions, this matter is already like this, getting angry can't solve the problem, what do you think?"

Du Wenhao said: "Then how can I tell Le Qi?"

Wang Runxue said: "They are the authorities. No matter how anxious we onlookers are, we can't solve the problem for them. I think it's best to bring Miss Sun's family over and let us sit down and solve this matter together."

Du Wenhao said: "That's the only way. You go to find someone to pick up Le Qi, and tell Mr. Sun that you are looking for Le Qi."

Wang Runxue said: "Okay, I'll go right away." After finishing speaking, he said: "Speak well, don't quarrel."

Du Wenhao nodded, watched Wang Runxue leave, and then said to Liu Zixu: "Get up, take the things off your back, I'm upset."

"Students just follow the master's orders." Liu Zixu got up and unloaded his things, and stood aside.

Du Wenhao sat down and said, "Tell me, which family's daughter is it?"

Liu Zixu said: "The granddaughter of Liao Kebi, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, is named Liao Bi'er."

Du Wenhao said: "Have you seen this girl?"

Liu Zixu didn't dare to lie, and nodded honestly.

Du Wenhao said: "How is it compared to Le Qi?"

Liu Zixu said timidly: "Students dare not speak out, for fear of being scolded by the master."

Du Wenhao smiled and said: "You dare to do it, are you afraid of me telling you?"
