dressed as a scholar

After being busy for a while, I went to a big event, but I was free again.

This year, the weather warmed up early, but it was only February, and the masters and servants in the house all shed their heavy and bloated winter clothes, and changed into light spring clothes.

Fang Yu wrote an article in the study and did all the homework during the holiday, so that he can go to Luoli Village for fun tomorrow in comfort, so he still has something to worry about.

After tidying up his homework, it was already the beginning of the day, he stretched his neck and looked around the door of the study, today Qiao Hezhi sent a cup of soup, but the person didn't know where he went, he didn't need to say in the past, he always stayed at the end of the study Yes, I read poetry and books when I am free, and manage accounts when I am busy, but I rarely see people.

"Did you get called by your mother?"

Xue Zhu said: "The husband seems to be at the other side of Xiaotongyuan, he has never gone out, nor is he in the Longevity Hall."

"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Fang Yu stood up and shook his clothes, "I'll go and have a look."

The lights at the other end of Xiaotongyuan were brightly lit, as if he had rested, looking at the closed door, Fang Yu knocked on the door: "Hezhi, are you taking a bath?"

"Never."

Hearing the answer in the room, Fang Yu was about to open the door: "Then I..."

"Your Majesty, please come in later."

Fang Yu paused, and glanced at Xue Zhu: "What are these two masters and servants doing in the house, why don't you let me in?"

Xue Zhu smiled: "Maybe there is some inconvenience."

"Hezhi, it's so cold outside, can I come in first?"

After finishing speaking, the door was opened with a bang, and Si Yu came out: "My lord, please."

Fang Yu went into the house in a daze, and saw Qiao Hezhi coming out of the inner room with messy hair, but it was no different from usual.He shaved his hair: "What are you busy with?"

"Aren't you going to Luoli Village tomorrow? Siyu found Chunyi out, and I looked for something suitable to wear."

"Then you can find a suitable one?"

Qiao Hezhi took a long breath and shook his head discouraged.

Fang Yu smiled helplessly. It is human nature to like beautiful clothes and beautiful ornaments, and Xiao Qiao is also unavoidable. He looked straight at the young man in his prime, and patted his leg: "Forget it, my husband will choose for you."

Qiao Hezhi was overjoyed when he heard the words, and took Fang Yu's hand into the inner room. Fang Yu's eyes were wide open when he entered the room. The bed, tables, chairs, benches and stools were so soft that they were covered with clothes. He looked around, could it be that there was something wrong? How many wardrobes does the little brother of the Qian family have....

"I just tried it, but I haven't had time to clean it up yet."

"No problem."

Fang Yu picked it up and took a look. It wasn't that there were too many clothes that couldn't be piled up. The main reason was that there were too many pieces in one set.

Qiao Hezhi came up and held Fang Yu's arm: "What should I wear?"

"Natural beauty, all good-looking."

Qiao Hezhi frowned, and Fang Yu said hastily: "It's better to wear something brighter in spring, this purple and light green one are both good."

"What about this white one?" Qiao Hezhi said: "Isn't it a pear blossom appreciation, it's very suitable for the occasion."

"The pear blossoms are pure and white. If you are all white, I'm afraid you won't be able to find anyone when you enter the pear garden."

Qiao Hezhi felt that it made sense when he heard the words, so he put down the white clothes he had chosen: "Then which color should I wear with these two?"

"Try and see."

Qiao Hezhi nodded, was about to change his clothes, and seeing Fang Yuchu standing motionless in front of him, he opened his eyes slightly: "Huh?"

Fang Yu reacted: "Ah, yes, I'm going out."

After walking a few steps, he fell back again: "How about I just wait for you in the house, it's so troublesome to get in and out, I'll turn my back, and I'm sure I won't peek at you."

Qiao Hezhi tilted his head, bit his lower lip, and almost had doubts written on his face. Fang Yu hurriedly pushed the person to change clothes, and said, "I'm tired of studying all night, so I'll just sit here for a meeting." Son."

"You don't do your homework while sitting down..." Seeing someone sitting at the other end of the table with his back turned to him, Qiao Hezhi stopped chasing him away.

Hearing the rustling sound, Fang Yu turned around lightly, and silently supported the side of his face with his hands.

Qiao Hezhi's stature is thin and his frame is not as big as that of ordinary men. He is actually not short, but he always looks thinner than ordinary men when he walks in the crowd. This is even more obvious after changing into spring clothes.

He saw Xiao Qiao take off his coat and inner lining one by one, and then saw the smooth and white back appearing in his field of vision, and suddenly remembered that spring clothes were not like winter clothes, and he would wear obscene clothes inside.His pupils narrowed slightly, and he wanted to turn his back on him, but Qiao Hezhi turned his head back a step ahead of him. The two looked at each other, and he smiled awkwardly, and turned his back quickly.

"You, you did it on purpose!"

As soon as the words finished, a white jacket was thrown on Fang Yu's head. He took it off silently, and suddenly stood up to hug the disheveled Qiao Hezhi: "If you say it was intentional, then it was intentional."

"I haven't picked out the clothes yet." Qiao Hezhi looked at the person close at hand, blushing a little.

Fang Yu rubbed his neck: "The purple one is fine."

"That's good..." He pushed Fang Yu: "The bed is full of clothes, how can I rest, get up quickly."

"Just throw it under the bed."

.......

Early the next morning, the Fang family's carriage rolled the official road to Luoli Village. The weather was getting warmer, and the spring outside the city was getting stronger. There were more people traveling in spring farming, but it was more prosperous than the noisy city.

The curtains of the carriage were never lowered along the way, the spring scenery outside dazzled people, both sides of the official road were green, and the air was filled with the fragrance of new flowers and plants.

It makes people think of the sentence: Chunshui is born, and Chunlin is gradually flourishing.

Not only their carriage, but along the way, they met a lot of people who rode their horses freely. Fang Yu felt itchy to see him. Although his equestrian skills have improved, he has not yet reached the stage where he can gather wind in the fields.

When we arrived at Luoli Village, it was even more lively. The outside of the village seemed to be specially planned. There was a large open space, and many carriages had already parked. They should all come out to enjoy the pear blossoms.

"Brother Fang!"

Just as Fang Yu got off the carriage, he saw Wu Shuyou running towards him waving his hands from afar.

"It can be regarded as here. There are many people who come to enjoy the pear blossoms today. I see many carriages that come here, and all of them are not Brother Fang."

"Seeing the good spring scenery on the road, I asked the coachman to slow down the journey, but Brother Shuyou had to wait for a long time." Fang Yu led Qiao Hezhi out of the carriage, and said with a smile, "This is my husband."

Wu Shuyou bowed to Qiao Hezhi: "I often hear brother Fang mention my sister-in-law, today I can see you."

Qiao Hezhi also smiled back.

Wu Shuyou stuck out his tongue and said, "Stop talking here, let's go inside."

The roads in the village are narrow and bumpy, and horse-drawn carriages are not allowed to go in, but some tourists go in with their horses, but the dirt roads are trampled even worse. The mud will hold your feet tight when you go down.

Along the way, Yu saw many villagers setting up stalls along the road, some selling sweet water, some selling pastries, and even selling some wild vegetables dug from the ground, etc. Fang Yu couldn't help but sigh with emotion. the same.

Wu Shuyou said: "There is no need to buy anything on the side of the road, just a few steps to the humble house, there are all these homes."

"However, in a small rural area, the humble house is messy, so I hope Brother Fang won't be offended."

"Hey, Brother Shuyou, don't be self-effacing. I saw that Luoli Village is tidy and tidy. I just passed by two farmers who even stacked the firewood in the yard very neatly."

When Fang Yu went to Fangzui Village before, he also saw Yin’s small farmyard. Although it has a grass roof, a shed, and mud walls, the village’s households are generally like this. Life is poor and miserable, and there is a shelter The child is already very good, and he has never looked down upon him.

Wu Shuyou laughed: "There are a few orchards in Luoli Village, which bloom in spring and bear fruit in autumn. Tourists from the city often come to watch and visit, and the village has been tidied up."

"Look, the pear garden is here."

As soon as Wu Shuyou finished speaking, a large expanse of snow-white pear blossoms came into view. The spring breeze blew, and the petals of the pear blossoms fluttered. When the pear blossoms first bloomed in early spring, not many fell with the wind, but the pear blossoms gathered together, and the fallen pear blossoms The petals are still enough to make people stop and watch.

The wind is full of the sweet smell of pear blossoms.

Fang Yu lowered his head, and Qiao Hezhi also looked at him with a smile.

Compared with the amazement of the tourists, Wu Shuyou seemed to be familiar with it, but he was also very proud of being able to satisfy his classmates who helped him on weekdays. He led the two of them to a road in the pear garden. Go forward: "We will be in the humble house soon, and the scenery is better inside."

"Your home is actually in this pear garden, I don't think Brother Shuyou is such an elegant person."

"Brother Fang Yu laughed. Our ancestors were farmers. This pear orchard was planted by our ancestors. At that time, the family was poor. In order to guard the pear orchard and prevent people from stealing the fruit in autumn, the house was built in the garden. The later generations never moved their residences, and this is still the case until today, but it was only in my generation that I started to study and gained some modest fame, which is really not the word Fengya."

Just after Wu Shuyou finished speaking, Fang Yu and Qiao Hezhi saw a three-story building with a flat-story house appearing in front of them amidst the pear blossoms. It is more appropriate to call it Zhuangzi rather than a house.

Fang Yu couldn't help but glance at Wu Shuyou, do you have any misunderstanding about poverty?I thought he was a farmer, and he was very simple and honest in the academy on weekdays, and his clothes were very simple and frugal, so I subconsciously thought that he was a poor man, but now... In the final analysis, he is a small person, he is a real person, a landlord silly son.

Qiao Hezhi also pursed his lips. He was born as a merchant, so he had seen many rich families. The Wu family was nothing to him, but Fang Yu told him that his classmate was from a farmer's family in the countryside. Feeling how difficult it is for the family, I thought it was a small family like the head of the village, but when I arrived here, I found out that it was a peasant household and a landlord.

His husband is really...

The two followed Wu Shuyou into Zhuangzi with different thoughts.

"Father, mother, elder brother, elder sister-in-law... My son's classmates have arrived."

Hearing the sound, the young and old of the Wu family came out in a file. Apart from the few people Wu Shuyou was addressing, there were six or seven young women and brothers who came out, as well as three or two-year-old children who were walking around. It seemed that there was a brother Wu Shuyou. His wife and family, as well as Wu Shuyou's own wife and children...

"Shuyou looks younger than me, but I didn't expect to have children already."

Wu Shuyou picked up a little baby who was calling daddy in a milky voice, and lovingly kissed the child's face: "The farmers in our village get married relatively early."

"Oh~" Fang Yu laughed dryly: "Your family's incense is very strong."

The two talked a few words, Wu's father, Wu Niang and Wu's eldest brother and sister-in-law pulled Fang Yu to talk very enthusiastically. The whole family, one Fang Xiucai, thanked him for taking care of Wu Shuyou in Hude College. Thankfully, he said that his stupid son could be handed over to the outstanding generation in the academy. It is really smoke from the ancestral grave. The exaggeration and sincerity of what he said almost brought tears to his eyes.

Fang Yu also politely praised Wu Shuyou a few words, saying that Xiao Wu is a malleable talent, and it is definitely not a problem to study hard and study hard for the college exam.

The Wu family felt as if they had listened to the words of a real immortal, and they were overjoyed.

"Okay, Mom and Dad, you're all talking to Brother Fang, and I'm going to visit with Fulang. Don't delay me, you don't have to go, there are so many tourists entering the village today."

Fang Yu praised Xiao Wu's words from the bottom of his heart, and turned around to ask Qiao Hezhi to go out to play, but unexpectedly, he was surrounded by the Wu family's wives, and he was holding the Wu family's baby at the moment.

Seeing him turn around, Qiao Hezhi proudly raised his eyebrows at him and showed off: "Children like me very much."

Fang Yu laughed and walked over.

Wu Shuyou's child is a little brother. He is chubby, with two pouts on his little face. He really likes Qiao Hezhi very much. When he was hugged by Qiao Hezhi, he leaned softly on his shoulder and called him brother in a waxy voice. .

Fang Yu pinched the baby's soft face: "Okay, give them the baby."

Although the child is cute, he was afraid of being dragged by the Wu family to talk again, so he coaxed Qiao Hezhi and said, "I'll take you to climb the pear blossoms."

Qiao Hezhi was a little reluctant to send the child back, so the two had to get away to play.

The pear orchard of the Wu family is huge, this end is still just a garden, there is a pear tree on the hill to the east, it can be said to be a splendid scene in spring, the Zhuangzi of the Wu family will receive tourists here to eat wine and eat farm food, and the income is quite good.

Fang Yu saw the tourists who came here today.

While the two were twirling a stick of incense in the pear garden, Fang Yu put a pear flower in full bloom on Qiao Hezhi, and said, "Brother Shuyou said that there is a river ahead, and we will catch two fish and take them home later." How about grilled fish soup?"

Qiao Hezhi nodded: "Okay."

"Then you wait here for a while, and I'll come back when I get the fishing rod." Just now, the two wanted to walk alone, but they didn't let anyone follow them because they felt that the boy was disturbing others, and now it was only themselves Running away: "I see that you are also tired from walking, sit here, I will be back soon."

Qiao Hezhi wasn't too tired, but he thought it would be slower if they were together, so he said, "Okay."

Fang Yu turned back and went back. There was a road in the garden, so he was not afraid of getting lost.

He walked forward, and along the way, there were people who recited poems and compose poems and enjoyed flowers together, so he didn't pay much attention, but a purple figure coming from a distance made his eyebrows tighten, and he subconsciously turned his head to Qiao Hezhi. I took a look at the other side, and saw that the colors of the clothes were almost the same, and thought to myself that I shouldn't have chosen purple yesterday.

……

"Crane...he branch?"

Hearing someone calling him, Qiao Hezhi stood up from the stone bench with a smile, and it took only a moment. He was thinking about how he came back so quickly, when he raised his eyes, he saw a strange figure but a familiar voice. The person, his smile suddenly solidified on his face.

"You, are you Qiao Hezhi?"

Seeing that there was no reply, the visitor carefully tilted his head and asked again.

"I am." After confirming who the person in front of him was, Qiao Hezhi said in surprise, "Brother Yu, are you really back?"

The man couldn't help the smile from the corners of his eyes and brows: "Yes, I'm back. I saw a face that looked like you in the distance. I was afraid that I might have misidentified the person. I didn't expect you to be so tall! I still like purple clothes so much."

Seeing the somewhat similar clothes of the two, Qiao Hezhi smiled awkwardly, not ashamed to say that Fang Yu chose them.

"When you were young, you always called me brother, but now that we haven't seen each other for many years, it makes me feel a lot older."

Qiao Hezhi couldn't help laughing: "It's been many years in a blink of an eye, so I'm older, so I'm right to call you that."

Yu Zhefeng shook his head with a smile, and said again: "Are you here alone to enjoy the flowers? I remember that you liked to go out alone when you were young. You are more courageous than ordinary people, and you still like this now."

"Brother Yu, don't expose my faults anymore. It's okay for me to go out alone today." Qiao Hezhi lowered his voice a little embarrassed: "I'm going out with my husband today."

Yu Zhefeng paused for a moment, lowered his head, and lowered his voice: "I visited Qiao's house after I came back, and I heard from Uncle Qiao that you are married. My husband is a scholar, he is handsome, and he is also motivated. very satisfied."

"En." Qiao Hezhi nodded. When he got home, he saw that Yu's house had been cleaned. He just wanted to ask if Yu Zhefeng had returned to Yuncheng, but he was interrupted by his father on the way, and he was busy with the rest of the house. The matter was left behind, and since he came to visit at home, his parents did not send a letter to inform him: "Brother Yu..."

"Then are you satisfied?"

Qiao Hezhi was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to react. He blushed a little, but he still responded with a smile: "Yes."

Yu Zhefeng smiled slightly, and the passers-by couldn't help but look sideways. The man had a face like a spring breeze, and he couldn't help but make people stop and peep.

"It's fine if you live well..." Yu Jifeng wanted to hide the sadness in his eyes, thinking that the ups and downs in the court were enough to control his emotions, but it turned out that he hadn't encountered enough things to make him sad That's all, he laughed: "Uncle and aunt have loved you since they were young, and they said they were reluctant to marry you, and they wanted to find a son-in-law for you. They didn't expect to betroth you so early. How could they be willing to..."

"I haven't been married for long, and it's not far from Yuncheng. If I want to go home soon. Where's Brother Yu? Are you married? Ever since you and Uncle Yu arrived in the capital, you haven't been married yet." I don’t know how Brother Yu has been doing these years.”

What he said were just polite words, how could the Yu family have a poor life as a family of officials for generations.

Yu Yufeng's eyes narrowed slightly: "Didn't you hear from me?"

"Huh?" Qiao Hezhi looked at Yu Jufeng in surprise, thinking that he meant that he hadn't inquired about him, and thought for a while and said, "I heard from the servants of the Yu Mansion that Brother Yu has already served in the Imperial Academy. .”

Yu Zhefeng opened his mouth, but he still didn't say what was on his lips.

"When will Big Brother Yu return to Beijing this time, why don't you come to our house as a guest?"

Yu Jifeng looked at the carefree and no different from before, smiled wryly and said: "I'm afraid your husband will not be very happy if he finds out."

Qiao Hezhi's eyes moved when he heard the words, thinking of all the past, he lowered his voice, and begged Yu Zhefeng: "That's right. Brother Yu, please don't let my husband know about the embarrassing things about my childhood. I was naughty when I was a child." If you're not sensible, don't take it to heart."

The Yu family relocated to the capital and never came back for six or seven years. He was flourishing in the imperial court again. He thought that he would never see Yu Zhefeng again in his life. He would come and go with merchants like their Qiao's again, but he didn't expect Yu Zhefeng to be so good-natured that he would visit their Qiao's.

Qiao Yu's family is just separated by a wall. When he was a child, he didn't have any brothers and sisters to play with him at home. He especially liked to hang around Yu Jifeng who was next door. He could really say that he was a childhood sweetheart. If Fang Yu knew about it, it would be fine.

"You don't want him to know that you flew a kite with me, or you don't want him to know that you can't wake up in the morning because of the sound of my reading, or you still don't want him to know that you said that you will marry me when you grow up. ..."

"I know that Uncle Qiao blamed me. He thought he said you were married just because he didn't want me to see you again. But you are really married, and I thought about not disturbing you anymore, but after so many years... I still I thought I could take another look at you before leaving Yuncheng."

What rules, what etiquette... All these years, he was too constrained by these rules and regulations, which made him miss Qiao Hezhi forever.

Yu Zhefeng didn't know whether to cry or laugh, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the hand of the person in front of him: "Hezhi, I'm late."

Qiao Hezhi was stunned suddenly, he had let the kite go, and he had heard of other people reading, but he had never said such a thing as marrying him!He was both surprised by Yu Zhefeng's words, and also shocked to see Fang Yu who had brought back the fishing rod at some point and was standing aside without saying a word.

Fang Yu's mind was a little messed up, and it wasn't that he wanted to stage a scene where he hid from the side and eavesdropped on his wife's conversation with her childhood playmate, and then had an extreme tension, it's just that he...was shocked too!

He naturally remembered that he met Yu Zhefeng in the book and tea room before, and he mentioned something to Qiao Hezhi that day. He felt that Yu Zhefeng was outstanding and came from a noble background. He secretly felt that the two might meet again in the future. It's an acquaintance, but I really didn't expect to meet again in this capacity.

That's all. After all, it was a matter of childhood. Xiao Qiao is only sixteen or seventeen now. In a few years, he was still a child. Whoever plays with him doesn't mean he likes whoever he is. He should not have received the education of the new era. Those with a small belly care about these things.

What makes him feel troublesome is... he is Yu Jifeng!

If I remember correctly, this name is the male protagonist whose name appears in capital letters on the cover of the book. The smooth and smooth life makes him almost forget that he is actually the villain's cannon fodder in the book.

That's all... Since it's a book, there must be a male protagonist, but he never expected that the male protagonist's Bai Yueguang is actually Xiao Qiao. He would hate the original body who entered the court so much in the later period.

He felt a mess now, and there must be some soreness, but he tried his best to recall the contents of the book, and even Xiao Qiao came over to hold his hand in a panic.

The few people broke up unhappy. He neither smiled and said goodbye to the hero in the book to leave a good impression of generosity, nor did he say a few harsh words as a rival in love should. In short, everything was so unexpected .
