Chapter 36

Zhang Xi blushed slightly, "Okay." He reached out and hugged Xie Liunian to the edge of the bed and sat there, bending over to help her take off the small embroidered blue satin powder-soled shoes.A few big girls and little girls followed, the first big girl named Mu Lian hurried over, smiling to help, Zhang Xi waved her hand and ordered her to back down.

Xie Liunian smiled brightly, and said with a high air: "I can take it off myself!" With a kick of two little feet, the shoes were kicked away without a move.Mu Lian hurried over to put the two small embroidered shoes together neatly, and said with a smile: "Miss Xie Qi's shoes are very similar in color to the third young master's bed." The bedding and pillowcases on the bed are all shades of blue, which looks pleasing to the eye.

Zhang Xi's face turned even redder.Xie Liunian kicked his shoes away, stuck out his tongue mischievously, turned around and crawled to the pillow, lay down comfortably, and closed his eyes intoxicated.The bed was so big that Zhang Xi couldn't reach it standing on the edge of the bed, so he also took off his shoes and got on the bed, carefully covering her with the quilt.

"Little one, which doll do you want?" Zhang Xi asked Xie Liunian, holding a pink doll in one hand and a light blue doll in the other.Little girls like to hug dolls when they sleep, Yaya does, and the little ones definitely do too.Xie Liunian lay comfortably on the soft pillow, squinted his eyes for a closer look, then smiled, showing his baby teeth, and stretched out his little finger to point to the light blue one.

Sleeping on a sapphire blue pillow, covered with a lake blue quilt, and hugging a light blue doll.In the tranquility and calmness, Xie Liunian sighed softly in satisfaction, with a smile on his lips, he fell asleep sweetly.The little girl had a peaceful sleeping face, with two halos of pink on her crystal clear cheeks, extremely cute.

The eyebrows are like distant mountains, the eyelashes are long and dense, and the small lips are like petals.Zhang Xi sat on the side and looked at Xie Liunian fascinatedly, the little guy looks really good-looking, even better than Uncle Xie Shi!No, you can't think that way, daddy said, a man can't praise his handsomeness, he should praise his ability.

Footsteps sounded outside the door. "Don't worry, my sister won't lose it." It was Yaya's voice.Zhang Xi quickly jumped to the edge of the bed, and Mu Lian knelt down to help him put on his boots.When Xie Yannian, Xie Tangnian, Yaya and others entered the room, Zhang Xie had already got out of bed and stood calmly at the door.

"Shh..." Zhang Xi signaled everyone not to speak loudly, while punching Xie Liunian who was sleeping soundly on the bed.On the big round bed of deep and light blue, Xie Liunian showed his small head, sleeping soundly. "So Xiaoqi is asleep." Xie Yannian and Xie Tangnian felt relieved when they saw their sister.

Zhang Xie invited Xie Yannian and Xie Tangnian to sit in the study, "I just got a piece of Bagui old man's baby fragrance recipe the day before yesterday. The calligraphy is round and smooth, calm and elegant. The two families have a long history, and I will help you appreciate it." Knowing the generations of the Xie family Scholarly, the children are all good at learning, especially good at calligraphy.

Xie Yannian smiled and cupped his hands, "It's better to obey than to be respectful." Being able to appreciate the pen and ink of famous masters is a good thing that one can only wish for.But Xie Tangnian politely declined, "I'm sorry, my sister is young and delicate, if she wakes up and her relatives are not around, she will cry unceasingly." He wanted to stay and watch her sister.

Zhang Xi didn't force it, and ordered Mu Lian to wait for the girl to serve him carefully, and he and Yaya accompanied Xie Yannian to the study.Xie Tangnian stayed close to his sleeping sister.The moment he found out that his sister was missing, he was really scared, "If Xiaoqi is lost, what should I do."

When Zhang Yu accompanied Fourth Master Xie to Xixin Pavilion, this was what he saw as soon as he entered the door: Xie Tangnian was holding a book in his hand, and he was sitting under the window quietly flipping through it.Xie Liunian only showed his small head on the big round bed in front of him, sleeping soundly.

Seeing Zhang Yu and Fourth Master Xie coming in, Xie Tangnian hurriedly dropped the scroll and came over to salute and say hello, "Uncle Zhang, Daddy."The young boy's figure is as tall and handsome as a lush green bamboo, his eyes are like a star, his face is like a beautiful jade, and he is handsome and elegant.

Zhang Yu responded with an open-eyed smile, my brother-in-law, Axie, is really not bad, a handsome young man.Fourth Master Xie looked indifferent, looking at the little daughter with a sweet sleeping face on the big round bed, feeling bored.Xiaoqi, this bed is just a little weird, what's wrong?Dad just couldn't see it.

After Xie Liunian woke up, Zhang Yu carried him to the Interpretation Room to play for a while. "Daddy taught me to read the Analects of Confucius last night." Xie Liunian held her in the arms of the beautiful aunt, Xu Xu said, "This is the first time."

Xie Yu took a small cup of orange juice and slowly fed her to drink, "Little boy, if you want to take the imperial examination, you must read the Four Books and Five Classics." So Fourth Master Xie, who was always at ease like a wild crane in the clouds, also started to read the Analects.That's right, it seems that I did not guess wrong.

Take the imperial examination?Xie Liunian widened his eyes.He takes the imperial examination?real or fake.Xie Liunian is really hard to imagine, what kind of situation will it be like for Xie Siye, who is dressed in white and looks like a banished fairy, to take the imperial examination.

Xie Yu smiled lightly, looked at himself, how could a child understand the imperial examinations and the Four Books and Five Classics with a child under three years old?No matter how smart you are, you are still young.

"Little one, let uncle and older brothers and sisters accompany you to watch the monkeys, okay?" Xie Yu's voice was gentle and gentle, and the little girl in his arms was really cute, "There are also deer, peacocks, little squirrels, and little foxes. It's fun. of."

zoo?OK, OK, I want to see it!Xie Liunian clapped his hands for joy, first hugged Jie Yu's neck, kissed her hard on the face twice, then stretched out his small arms to Zhang Yu, zoo!
Zhang Yu carried Xie Liunian in his arms, and took Zhang Xie Yaya, Xie Yannian, and Xie Tangnian to Monkey Mountain.Fu Shen raised a lot of animals in Monkey Mountain, all of them were raised by Yaya. "Little boy, this pure white one is Costin, is it fun?" Yaya enthusiastically pointed it out to Xie Liunian.Although Haidongqing is as big as a magpie, it is ferocious in nature and can catch swans, small animals and foxes.In Liaodong, if a criminal who was exiled by the imperial court can catch a sea dongqing and hand it in, he can be exempted from guilt and return to his hometown.It can be seen how rare Costin is.

"Little one, this is a white peacock." Zhang Yi was very patient as the host. "The feathers are not variegated, and the whole body is white and flawless. Look at the little one, its eyes are light red. Isn't it interesting?" Xie Liunian nodded repeatedly. .It's really interesting, this white peacock is dancing like a young girl in white, very beautiful.

Before leaving, Xie Liunian received a blue peacock, a green peacock, a white peacock, a pair of golden pheasants, a pair of white foxes, a pair of sika deer, and a pair of xiaobaiwu.Fourth Master Xie looked at this pile of living creatures, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times.It's done, Xiaoqi has more things to do in the future.Just looking after these living creatures is enough for her to keep busy.

It was a carriage when it came, and there was an extra one when it left.Back at Xie's house, Mrs. Xie and the others were a little surprised at first, and then amused: This is a peacock and a white fox, can Xiaoqi be able to raise it?
Xie Younian looked at his little cousin with a smile.She was welcome to see, she went back to Nanning Marquis Mansion, and brought back these many living creatures.The same is the concubine daughter of the Xie family, but Rui Nian has never been like this.Xie Ruinian, a little girl from a concubine, has never been embarrassed by anyone, but no one has ever praised her.

Xie Ruinian looked very jealous.Xie Liunian gave her a pair of little white buns, "We will raise the rest together." Anyway, they live together, so let's raise them together.Xie Ruinian's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly.

In the evening study time, I still talk about the Analects of Confucius.Fourth Master Xie read a passage, and then explained a passage in detail. Xie Liunian leaned on Fourth Master Xie's arm and listened extremely attentively.

After the Analects, Mencius, Daxue, Zhongyong, Shangshu, Book of Rites, Zhouyi, and Chunqiu were talked one after another. Regardless of whether he understood or not, Xie Liunian pretended to listen attentively.

The days passed by like water, unknowingly entered winter, entered the twelfth lunar month, passed the new year, and arrived on the ninth day of March.Xie Liunian didn't see Fourth Master Xie after he got up that day, he had already left for the Gongyuan in the inner city.The Celestial Trials began on the ninth day of March.

During the nine days from the ninth day of March to the seventeenth of March, the whole family of Xie Zhai suffered a lot.Regardless of whether fourth master Xie is at home or not, from uncle Xie down, everyone thinks of him and misses him.

"Yulang has never experienced such hardships! I don't know if he can survive?" Uncle Xie remembered the miserable situation when he left the examination room nine days after the exam, and his heart ached for Xie Yulang, who was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child.

The eldest wife gently persuaded her, "There is nothing we can do about it. The fourth brother is an upright man, and he will take this step sooner or later." It is impossible for the uncle to travel around all his life, and he will spend his whole life leisurely in Taikang.

"We all know that Fourth Uncle must be talented and educated. But he has been a celebrity for many years, and stereotypes have always been dismissed. I really don't know him..." The palms of Xie Songnian and Xie Henian were sweating.

On the other hand, the people in the fourth room, whether it is He Li, or Xie Yannian, Xie Tangnian, and Xie Liunian, the two sons and one daughter, all look calm and indifferent, as if they don't care at all.Xie Liunian can also be said to be too young, Xie Yannian and Xie Tangnian are already ten years old, could it be that they are not sensible?The eldest lady looked at it coldly, a little puzzled.

How did she know that Fourth Master Xie has always taught his two sons that "even if there is no overnight food at home, don't show embarrassment to others." If you are in a hurry, what are you doing outside?It's useless to make people laugh, it's useless in the past, and it's useless in the future.

Fourth master Xie only left the examination room on March [-]th, there was already a carriage waiting outside the tribute courtyard to pick him up and take him back to Xie's residence.Although Fourth Master Xie looked haggard and mentally weak, his demeanor still remained.After getting out of the carriage, he still walked at a leisurely pace, walked to the main room with a calm expression, said hello to Uncle Xie and Mrs. Xie, and then turned back to his yard.

"A Li, prepare hot water." Ignoring other things, I have to take a shower and change clothes first.

"Get ready, get ready." He Li was a little incoherent, slightly trembling as he waited for Fourth Master Xie to take off his clothes and soak in the large and comfortable cedar wood bathtub.

After taking a bath and changing clothes, Fourth Master Xie called his two sons and one daughter to read the homework of Xie Yannian and Xie Tangnian in the past few days, and ordered them to go back.He Li sat beside him, and Xie Liunian sat in his arms, chattering, "The blue peacock turned on the screen once today, and it looks great! The little deer is disobedient, running around the garden..."

The only sound in the room was Xie Liunian's chatter.After talking for a while, it was inevitable that she would be lonely, and when she looked up, Fourth Master Xie had closed his eyes slightly, and had fallen asleep leaning on the cushion.He Li looked at him with tears in his eyes.

Fourth master Xie slept for three days and three nights.When he woke up, the people who announced the good news were crowded in front of Xie's house: Taikang Xie Xun, three of No. 70 will try.
