Farming and teaching across different worlds

, and naturally put his hands on the outside of the man's shoulders, as if he was holding him in his arms.

His eyes were also fixed on this person's handsome face, in order to relieve his longing for these days, and carefully looked at this person's eyebrows, for fear of missing the slightest bit of this person.

The two looked at each other like this for a while, and only then did the lovesickness during this period of time ease, and Ji Xiuran finally reacted from the surprise, and asked in disbelief, "Is the third brother really you?"

Shi Jingchen looked at him intently, and when he heard his stupid question, with a slight smile in his eyes, he replied, "Xiu Ran feel it carefully." After speaking, he took Ji Xiuran's hand and put it on his face, letting him Feel the warmth on your face.

Following his strength, Ji Xiuran put his hand on his face, stroked it gently, felt it seriously, and then said happily with red eye circles: "It's true."

At this time, it was the time to go to the Yamen, and there were many people coming and going at the door of the household department. At this time, someone had already seen the situation of the two of them, and they began to discuss in detail.

Standing next to you, you looked at the two masters who had forgotten themselves immersed in the joy of reunion, and looked at the more and more onlookers around, so they had to cough lightly, stepped forward and reminded: "Master , Lord, let's get in the car and go back."

As soon as he reminded them, the two also noticed the change in the surrounding atmosphere, looked at each other with a smile, replied "yes" at the same time, and carried them into the carriage together.

Everyone saw them get in the car and leave, so they also dispersed, but no one paid attention at this time. Wang Shilang, who was standing at the door, looked at them gloomily, with resentment in his eyes, and a disgusted "pooh" sound on his face.

After hearing the master's order, Youfu went to the shaft of the chariot and told the coachman to drive carefully.

After the two got into the car, they didn't have so many scruples outside. Ji Xiuran hugged Shi Jingchen's waist and rubbed his head on his shoulder a few times. Through this direct contact, he was sure of this person again and again. is really back.

Shi Jingchen felt that his small movements were just the corners of his mouth raised, and he didn't stop him.

After Ji Xiuran felt enough, he maintained this intimate posture, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Just now I was still missing third brother, but I didn't expect third brother to appear in front of me in the next second. I thought it was a dream." After speaking, he laughed happily.

Hearing what he said, Shi Jingchen raised his hand to caress his back, rubbed it up and down a few times to show comfort, and then remembered the distressed look on this man's expression before.

After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "What difficulties did Xiu Ran encounter?" You were so troubled that you didn't even notice a big living person standing there.

Thinking about it now, Shi Jingchen was still a little unhappy at Ji Xiuran's neglect of him, but he would not express this clearly awkward questioning.

But he didn't say it directly, Ji Xiuran could hear the faint complaint in his words, raised his head, looked at him with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Is the third brother unhappy? I'm blaming me for not being the first time found you?"

Shi Jingchen was a little embarrassed when he directly and clearly exposed the small thoughts in his heart. There was a trace of embarrassment on his face. However, Xiu Ran actually laughed at him as a brother, he should be beaten."

After speaking, she raised her hand and patted Ji Xiuran's back lightly symbolically.

Ji Xiuran saw that he was so eager to cover up, the smile in his eyes deepened a bit, but in order to prevent this person from becoming angry, he immediately restrained himself, and replied politely: "Yes, yes, third brother is the best."

After finishing speaking, he rested his head on Shi Jingchen's shoulder again.

Hearing his perfunctory promise, Shi Jingchen, whose expression had returned to normal, shook his head, and a helpless smile appeared in his eyes.

But I still couldn't help asking: "Xiu Ran hasn't answered the question about being a brother, is there any inconvenience?"

Hearing this, Ji Xiuran recalled his troubles before, sighed lightly, frowned and said, "It's not inconvenient, it's just business, I don't know how to speak for a while."

Shi Jingchen raised his hand to pull the man up from his shoulders, looked at his frowning brows, and frowned dissatisfiedly, then raised his hand to stroke his brows, and said with distressed words: "Don't frown, what's the matter?" Say it, even if my brother can't give you advice, it will make you feel better when you say it."

Seeing that this person listened to his words, he relaxed his brows before he embraced him again and continued: "No matter what difficulties you encounter, Brother Wei will always be by your side."

After hearing what he said, Ji Xiuran's eyes suddenly turned red with sentimentality, and he blamed with tears in his voice: "Third Brother always does this, he casually says some touching things, and he always wants to make people cry before he is reconciled."

Shi Jingchen smiled helplessly at this baseless accusation, and could only accept it willingly, and even spoke to comfort the person in his arms: "Okay, okay, it's all wrong for my brother."

Ji Xiuran listened to his unintentional apology, smiled amusedly, and then talked about the past in a good mood: "Actually, it's nothing, the third brother knows, this time the emperor asked me to settle in the household department, so I will do it." I was given the heavy responsibility of being in charge of finance and taxation, but when I was sorting out the accounts this time, I found some problems, and now I am worrying about how to solve them."

Shi Jingchen listened carefully to Ji Xiuran's words, and saw that he was starting to worry again, so he opened his mouth to explain: "I don't know about finances and taxes, but I believe that Xiuran must have a way."

Hearing this, Ji Xiuran sighed annoyedly, and continued: "There are ways, and there is not only one way, but now what I worry about is which one to use."

After hearing this, Shi Jingchen asked curiously: "Oh? Why don't Xiuran come and let me judge one by one."

Ji Xiuran adjusted his posture, found a more comfortable angle, continued to nest on Shi Jingchen's chest, and then spoke in detail: "I have calculated the increase in the amount of commercial tax in the past two years, and found that many states and counties have the same situation. If it doesn't match, there is likely to be corruption, and the amount is not small, if I report this matter directly to the emperor, the emperor will definitely investigate to the end, but this will not only be detrimental to the stability of the government, but also only treat the symptoms rather than the root cause."

Speaking of this, Ji Xiuran paused, sorted out his thoughts, and continued: "When I was studying Daxia's taxation, I summed up some shortcomings and formulated a rectification plan. I will hand it over to the emperor, and I will definitely implement it. Go on, so that it can be relieved, but in this way, it is just a change of soup but not medicine."

After finishing speaking, Ji Xiuran's complexion changed, and he suddenly became serious, and his tone was a bit more solemn: "I have thought about it carefully, the only way to completely solve these problems is to reform, fundamentally reform the system, and separate the financial and taxation. Establish a new tax system, and at the same time allow state officials to supervise, so as to more effectively curb local corruption of tax money."

When Shi Jingchen started to explain in detail from Ji Xiuran, he listened carefully with a serious face. Hearing the meaning of Ji Xiuran's words now, he is such a self-reliant person, and he couldn't help but gasp when he wanted to understand the stakes. Cool.

After Ji Xiuran finished speaking, his momentum languished, and he continued with a sense of loss: "But I don't think I have that much determination to challenge the system that has existed for thousands of years and carry out reforms. Besides, since ancient times, people who advocate reform There is no good end, and besides, I don't want to harm my family."

After finishing speaking, he continued with reluctance in his tone: "However, it is really not reconciled to not be able to do better when it is obvious that it can be done better."

After listening to all of Ji Xiuran's thoughts, Shi Jingchen realized at this moment that he felt Ji Xiuran's loss, and consciously raised his hand to stroke his back, comforting him, and at the same time began to think in his mind.

After coming over for a while, he said in a steady tone: "If Xiuran wants to do it, then do it."

Hearing this, Ji Xiuran held his chest in disbelief, raised his head from his shoulder, looked into his eyes seriously, and asked in disbelief: "Brother, are you serious? You should understand the consequences of doing this." .”

Shi Jingchen looked into Ji Xiuran's eyes seriously, nodded firmly, and said, "I know what Xiuran is worried about, but I don't want to be a stumbling block on your way forward." After saying that, he raised his hand to caress his handsome face, Continued: "Brother, I understand Xiuran. If you were alone, you wouldn't think so much. The reason why you are distressed is just that you don't want to burden your family."

When Ji Xiuran heard this, his voice choked up, and he called out "Third Brother" affectionately, then closed his eyes gently, and a tear fell from the corner of his eyes.This feeling of being understood and being unconditionally supported made him feel ashamed of his willful behavior.

Seeing him like this, Shi Jingchen sighed softly, raised his hand to wipe away his tears, and blamed him softly: "You are such a big man, and you cry every now and then. Let Jiabao see it and laugh at you as a father."

When Ji Xiuran heard his words, he didn't feel the emotion and sadness that he felt immediately. Thinking of the picture of Jia Bao triumphantly laughing at him, he couldn't help laughing "puchi", then opened his eyes, and looked at this person reproachfully, his mood also changed. calmed down.

Seeing that he had regained his composure, Shi Jingchen adjusted his expression again, and said in a serious tone: "I see it for my brother, Xiu Ran doesn't have to be so pessimistic. And Xiuran's life, let alone the family."

After hearing Shi Jingchen's words, Ji Xiuran thought carefully,
