Bianshanhan [farming]

After dinner, Li Qingzhuo wanted to go back to the academy, Li Qingrui and Li Qingwen went out with him.

The road here in Wisteria Alley is not narrow, but very flat. There are trees planted on both sides of the road, which are not high, and some have a small half of leaves on them, but it is estimated that they will soon be blown away.

This alley is full of people who live their lives. The inside and outside of the door are cleaned very clean. The clothes of adults and children are hung on the pull ropes in the yard. There are still yellow flowers in the sky.

Some ate early, some ate late, Li Qingwen and the others ate early, and as they passed by each house, they could smell the aroma wafting from inside.

After they entered the capital, they saw people coming and going, and horse-drawn carriages. Walking in this long alley at this time, they felt quiet.

The afternoon sun was strong, and a group of people stepped on the fallen leaves from the quiet alley to the busy street, a few steps away, two worlds.

There was a lot of traffic on the side, and after walking along the tall and straight red wall and the plane trees for a long time, Li Qinghong asked, "Second Brother, where is your academy?"

Li Qingzhuo pointed to the wall next to him, "It's right here."

Everyone exclaimed: "This, so big?!"

They walked by the wall for almost a stick of incense, and the effort was not over yet, the wall alone is so long, this academy is too big.

Everyone except Li Qingzhuo was very curious about Wenzheng Academy, but it was a pity that the wall was so high that it completely covered the inside, and only the trees inside the wall and a few tall buildings could be seen from the outside.

There is no need to ask where the entrance of the academy is, just look ahead, there are carriages on the road ahead, and beside the carriages are servants in green clothes and caps and slim maidservants.

Looking at the gorgeous scene ahead, Li Qingshun and the others couldn't help but slow down, and said awkwardly: "Qingzhuo, go in, we'll send it here."

Li Qingzhuo also stopped, and said: "Today's time is not enough. Tomorrow we will only study for half a day, and then we will have a long vacation. After noon tomorrow, I will take you for a walk inside. The academy is more spacious."

"No, no need..." Li Qingshun and others quickly waved their hands, "We don't know a single character, we are all rough people, we can't speak, and we will embarrass you if we go in."

Li Qingzhuo smiled, "It's really embarrassing, I came here to learn the truth, my eyes should be looking at the sage books, if I stare at people's clothes, he should be the one who is ashamed."

"Go, don't be too late." Li Qingjiu urged.

Without forcing everyone, Li Qingzhuo quickly stepped into the gate by himself.

After he entered, Li Qingrui and the others walked to the gate. Through the heavy carriages and crowds, they saw the wide vermilion gate with neat copper nails on the gate. A thick pillar.

At this time, there were people entering and leaving the academy, and they couldn't see clearly what was going on inside. The group of people didn't stop, and didn't look back, they walked along the wall from east to west.

To the west is the same red wall, slightly shorter, so there are more than 200 steps away.

Turning north along the end, there is an academy on the right, and a large lake on the left, surrounded by a circle of weeping willows. There are boats swimming on the lake, and children shouting happily on the shore.

As Li Qingwen walked, he looked into the academy. On the high wall, he could only see rockery and tall trees. The small two-story and three-story buildings were tiled with green tiles, with pointed ridges and upturned corners. The sound of reading read loudly. It came out from inside.

It looks like the university in the previous life... Li Qingwen thought distractedly, if the previous accident hadn't happened, he should be studying in the university at this time...

In the past, there is no need to think about it. In any era, reading can see a wider world and make more friends. This is also what he wants.

Li Qingrui walked ahead, looked back at Li Qingwen who was in a daze, and said, "Boy, do you want to study here?"

Li Qingwen smiled, but he didn't say anything against his will in front of his elder brother, and said, "I want to, but I have more important things to do."

Needless to say, the big guy knows what he wants to do.

Li Qingrui said: "Even if you are not in the border town, there are many things you can do."

This time Li Qingwen didn't speak anymore, he knew that what his elder brother said was correct, for example, his second elder brother was in the capital, holding those case files in his hand, he could discuss the sentence of the tribute burning case with the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and try to find the flaws in it and omissions.

They walked in silence until the end, along the north wall, and they returned to the wisteria alley.

Li Qingwen was a little tired at this moment, and even yawned a few times, Fang pushed him to his son's hut, let him lie down and sleep for a while.

It was a bit cold on the small bed, but Li Qingwen didn't notice the coldness, so he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Fang originally went to get things and wanted to press him on the quilt, so that it would be warmer, but when he entered the room and found that he was asleep, he immediately slowed down and covered him with things under his feet.

Turn around and close the door, and tell the two sons not to come in and disturb him.

Li Qingwen slept until late in the evening, the window was reddened by the sunset, and when he got up, his hair was all flying. He sat up and woke up for a long time before he realized that the room was a little strange. Slowly recalling, he had arrived in the capital, and now At that time, I was in Wisteria Alley.

Thinking that Jiang Cong didn't know what was going on on the boat, Li Qingwen got up slowly, while thinking, the second brother should be leaving school soon...

Probably because he just woke up, the room was a bit stuffy, so he opened the small window a little, thinking about getting some air, and then closed it.

As a result, as soon as he opened it, he saw his elder brother and Miss Qin standing outside. His elder brother handed a letter and a wooden box to Qin Dongmeng. He didn't know what he said, but saw Miss Qin hugging the wooden box tightly.

Li Qingwen blinked his eyes, and gently closed the window again.

As soon as Li Qingrui entered the door, he saw Brother Yao sitting on a stool against the wall staring at the door, and said with a smile, "Are you awake?"

Li Qingwen nodded, and wanted to ask something, but he glanced behind him, and didn't see Qin Dongmeng, so he whispered: "Brother, you were outside just now..."

"Jiang Cong entrusted me to Miss Qin." Li Qingrui said.

Li Qingwen was stunned for a moment, "Why didn't I know about this?"

"You want to know everything!" Li Qingrui patted his head with a smile, and smoothed his flying short hair by the way, "Who doesn't have a private matter yet."

Li Qingwen was silent. People do have their own private affairs. Even though Jiang Cong knew all about his big and small things, he never told anyone about the shocking things before.

Seeing him like this, Li Qingrui thought that his younger brother was unhappy, and said in a low voice: "Brother knows that you are close to Jiang Cong, but the relationship between men and women is different after all. Don't say too much, brother. You will understand when you get married and have children in the future."

Li Qingwen looked up at him, frowned and said, "Brother, don't scare me with getting married and having children."

Li Qingrui smiled, "You are seventeen years old, why do you still say such stupid things, marriage between a man and a woman is a matter of course, and you still want to be a bachelor for the rest of your life?"

"What's wrong with being a bachelor all your life?" Li Qingwen looked at him seriously, and said, "Now we're all in the border town, family reunion, everything is good, except for Brother Jiang, I'm very satisfied with everything else."

Sitting next to him, Li Qingrui smiled and said, "It's good now, but in the future, you are old but have no children, what will you do in the future?"

Li Qingwen felt that his elder brother's words sounded very familiar, like what their neighbor's grandma said when she urged her granddaughter to get married, so he trembled, "Big brother, don't talk about these mother-in-laws, I can't hear you."

Li Qingrui hammered his leg and glared at him, "Who are you talking about?"

The force was not heavy, but Li Qingwen jumped up and ran away, complaining while running, "I'm going to sue my second brother."

Li Qingwen rushed to the door, stopped suddenly, and returned to the courtyard. The west side of the house was very close to the wall, and in the narrow gap, he saw Qin Dongmeng with his shoulders shrugging and his back turned away.

The house Li Qingzhuo rented was not big, and Qin Dongmeng lived with Fang Shi, so she didn't enter the house after receiving the letter, so she probably read it outside.

Li Qingwen felt that he should leave, and turned his footsteps again and again, but he still said: "Miss Qin, I'm a little hungry and want to go out for something to eat, can you show me the way?"

After speaking, he retreated to the door.

Not long after, Qin Dongmeng came out from the crack in the wall, lowered his head slightly, and said softly, "I haven't been around much, what do you want to eat?"

"When I came back, I saw the smell coming from a store. Let's go there and see what to eat." Li Qingwen walked out as he spoke, Qin Dongmeng hesitated for a moment, but followed behind.

Li Qingwen walked unhurriedly in front, Qin Dongmeng walked behind, the two walked through the alley and went outside.

The cart filled with water was walking beside, and the barrels collided, making a muffled sound. There were children playing around the cart, and the old man who drove the cart asked them to be careful.

The women walked home from outside together, all with heavy baskets in their hands, talking homely as they walked.

The two had their own concerns and didn't pay attention to these.

Going against the flow of people, Li Qingwen stopped at the east intersection of the road leading to the academy. There was a two-story restaurant here. Li Qingwen waited until Qin Dongmeng approached and asked, "Have you eaten here?"

Qin Dongmeng shook his head, Li Qingwen said: "Then let's go here."

He entered the lobby first, and asked the clerk if there was a separate room for dinner. The clerk looked at the old sackcloth on him, as if he was weighing something.

Li Qingwen looked at him and asked with a smile, "Is there anything wrong?"

The clerk shook his head quickly, "The private room is on the second floor, please move up the two guests!"

Li Qingwen let Qin Dongmeng into the room by the window, and when the dishes were being served one after another, he got up and said, "This room is a bit stuffy, I'm not used to it, Miss Qin, you're here, I'll go to the lobby outside, I always eat slowly, maybe It will take an hour or two to eat, so don't worry, just lie down on the stairs and call me if you have something to do."

Hearing this, Qin Dongmeng finally raised her head, revealing her red eyes from crying, and said in a hoarse voice, "No, it doesn't have to be like this..."

Li Qingwen waved his hand, went outside, closed the door, did not leave immediately, but called Qin Dongmeng to bolt the door inside.

Although it was only upstairs and downstairs, he was afraid that something might happen to Qin Dongmeng, a weak woman, upstairs.

After going downstairs, Li Qingwen found a table near the stairs on the second floor and sat down. He ordered a bowl of noodles. The waiter looked at him with an indescribable expression on his face. He didn't understand what he meant by choosing the second floor and coming down to eat.

When the noodles in clear soup were served, Li Qingwen went to the cashier to settle the bill, and told the waiter not to disturb that girl on the second floor.

He gave the money, and the man really didn't give Li Qingwen another look.

A small bowl of noodles, thin noodles, green onion, looks clear and watery, Li Qingwen tasted it, the taste is quite good.

He ate slowly and waited quietly.

While eating, he thought, if he has always liked someone, and then was rejected, and he chased him halfway for thousands of miles, but the person he liked let him go back... Hey, forget it, he has no one he likes, so he can't think about it.

Although he didn't know what he should do, he knew that Qin Dongmeng must be very sad, and there was nothing he could do to help her, so he could only find a separate place for her to sort out his worries.

Li Qingwen just took two bites when he saw his elder brother come in, and walked straight to his table.

"Where's Miss Qin?" Li Qingrui asked while sitting on the stool opposite.

Li Qingwen quickly swallowed the noodles in his mouth, and said, "We're eating up there, brother, how do you know we're here?"

"After you two went out, I have been following behind." Li Qingrui sighed, and said, "I'm worried that you two got lost."

How can you get lost in such a small way?

Li Qingwen didn't know what to say, he could only express his dissatisfaction with the short hair protruding from the hat, and asked, "Brother, are you hungry?"

Li Qingrui shook his head, Li Qingwen still asked the waiter to bring a pair of bowls and chopsticks, expecting that the eldest brother would not dislike him, and divided half of the noodles and soup over there.

He said he was not hungry, Li Qingrui ate half a bowl of noodles into his stomach in two bites, he wiped his mouth and said: "I'll go first, wait for your second brother at the intersection, you brought Miss Qin out, but Take him back to me properly."

Li Qingwen nodded repeatedly. After the eldest brother left, he also finished eating, sat under the bench, and silently recited the books that the second brother brought to him in his heart.

During lunch, the second brother said that he was going to test his endorsement when he came back, so he had to review it quickly at this time.

He silently recited those books from beginning to end twice, the lights in the restaurant were turned on one after another, and the sky outside was gradually getting dark.

More and more guests came, the restaurant lobby was almost full, and it became noisy all at once.

After a while, the door of the private room on the second floor opened. Li Qingwen walked over when he heard the movement. He was finally relieved to see Qin Dongmeng moving the food on the table.

No matter what, it's good to be able to eat.

"There are a lot of dishes, I picked them out with clean chopsticks first, and left the rest untouched." Qin Dongmeng said.

Li Qingwen asked the clerk to wrap up the rest, he wasn't full, and had to get something to fill his stomach when he went back.

Carrying the greased paper bag, the two left the restaurant one after the other.

After dark, the wind blows up, not too strong, and will be able to blow the leaves on the ground to run around against the ground.

Halfway to the alley, Qin Dong suddenly stopped and said from behind, "Thank you, Li Qingwen."

Li Qingwen also stopped, turned around and said, "It's nothing, what are your plans for the future?"

"I want to go back to Hongzhou." Qin Dongmeng's voice was hoarse, and she said, "I've caused too much trouble for you and Second Brother Li, I'm really sorry."

"No." Unexpectedly, she made a decision so quickly, Li Qingwen admired her from the bottom of his heart, and said, "My brother said, you are his sister, and we should take care of you."

Qin Dongmeng smiled bitterly, and said softly: "Let's go, it's getting late, sister-in-law and the others should be worried."
