If what you said just now is still a novel method, then what you said is outrageous.Ye Sirui hurriedly said: "Shut up, you dare to say that you have ruined the fertile land, be careful and you will be dragged to beat you later." Seeing that Xia Shuman didn't care, he thought that let alone a few farmers, all the yamen servants in his yamen would surround him There is nothing he can do about it. "However, this statement sounds absurd, but it is also reasonable. It's just that there are still famine years and hungry people. If we don't open up wasteland, where can we get food..."

Xia Shu is also silent.

They walked along the streets and alleys, listening to the vendors calling for deals, Ye Kuang's eyes were shining.

"Be careful." Xia Shu hugged Ye Kuang out of the way, and did not forget to turn around to remind Ye Sirui.White flags were raised in front, and yellow paper money fluttering all over the ground.Ye Kuang looked curious, but Ye Sirui blocked him behind for fear of bumping into something. "Why is there a funeral here?"

"I'll go ask, you guys don't wander around." Xia Shu said in a deep voice.

"The grandson of the Zhao family passed away. He was healthy and healthy at such a young age. Everyone said that he was too smart. Wen Quxing fell in love with him again and wanted to take him to the sky as a disciple. What a crime!" The uncle Xia Shu casually stopped sighed. .

Ye Sirui's eyes lit up. "How did you die?"

"I heard that he fell into the water and died."

Ye Sirui was even more skeptical, "Why didn't you report to the official? This is against the rules."

"Hey." The old man sighed, "How can this be reported to the government? He has become a fairy. Besides, who offends the Wenqu star in the sky, who can eat good fruit!"

Xia Shu glanced at the pensive Ye Sirui, passed him and easily picked up Ye Kuang, turned around and walked over.

Ye Kuang looked back worriedly, "Where's Uncle Rui?"

"Leave him alone, he will come by himself." Xia Shu said lightly.

Ye Kuang still looked back worriedly.

"Exercising should be done in moderation, if the load is too heavy, it will be unbearable." Xia Shu said casually.

Ye Kuang turned his head abruptly and stared at him, a pair of eyes completely different from his uncle's, full of nobility but less dignified.

"It's not a good way to lift heavy objects." Xia Shu glanced at his wrist.

"How do you know?" Ye Kuang blurted out, regretted after speaking, and covered his mouth a little depressed, praying that he didn't hear.

"Injury to the muscles and bones will leave the root of the disease." Xia Shu continued to explain patiently.

"What are you talking about?" Ye Sirui finally caught up.Ye Kuang shrank into Xia Shu's arms with a guilty conscience.Xia Shu rarely opened his mouth to hide it, "What did you find?"

Ye Sirui didn't want to ask more questions. "Nothing, just some guesses."

He thought for a while, since the corpse had already been coffined, the government couldn't intervene, but the coffin always had to be stopped, so... "Brother Tian Shu, please do me a favor."

"How did you die?"

"The body has been swollen with water." Xia Shu said, and paused for a few seconds. "It's hard to see if there are other injuries, but there is water foam in the mouth and nose, and it entered the water before it was alive. It should be drowned."

Ye Sirui nodded and thanked him: "Brother Tianshu, please go for a trip. My mind is messed up now, please go back first."

Xia Shu didn't leave, she was silent for a while, and quickly looked at him. "How old is your nephew?"

"Seven years old." Mentioning Ye Kuang, Ye Sirui couldn't help but soften his expression, "Speaking of which, Kuang'er seems to like you very much. Every time I see you and go back, I'm excited for a long time."

Xia Shu didn't talk nonsense anymore, turned around, and quickly disappeared.

In fact, he still has a lot of questions in his mind.Even if Ye Sirui was not from a famous family, he was also from a family of merchants, so he had no worries about food and clothing.Moreover, the status of today's merchants has been greatly improved compared with the previous dynasty.Why did his nephew go out of office with him instead of being raised at home?Even if his parents died, there is no such reason.But Xia Shu is Xia Shu after all, he doesn't want to talk to outsiders about his own affairs, so naturally he won't force others.

Xia Shu didn't ask, Ye Sirui was grateful.After eating, he sent Ye Kuang to study, and he ordered to get a plain robe and change into it, took a small sedan chair for two people, and staggered to Zhao's house.

There are white flowers hanging on the lintel of Zhao's house, and white flags are flying everywhere, and they are doing funeral affairs.Seeing him getting off the sedan chair, the young servant at the door was very dignified, busy making arrangements for the bearers to drink and welcome him into the courtyard.The yard is not big, but the layout is elegant.As soon as Ye Sirui appeared, and the guests came and went, some people recognized him as the parent official, and they couldn't help but lament the great face of the Zhao family.

The Zhao family heard about it, and they also stepped forward to salute Ye Sirui.Ye Sirui saw that one of the old man and middle-aged man in the front was wearing a uniform of minor merit and the other was of great merit, so he knew that the deceased had an older brother, and these two were his grandfather and father.

The father and son greeted each other.Uncle Zhao is only half a hundred years old, but he has gray beard and hair, and is old-fashioned.The other young one was indeed his eldest son, Zhao Yaozu.

Ye Sirui ignored their courtesy, and said without haste, "Your son Zhilan Yushu is very talented. I heard that he passed away, and I am very sad. I am very upset. Please condolences to both of you."

Uncle Zhao was silent, Zhao Yaozu wiped his eyes and replied: "His life is poor, so adults have to worry about it."

Uncle Zhao asked him to go to work first, and said some polite words himself, just to test Ye Sirui's background.

Ye Sirui just smiled and dismissed him to continue entertaining guests, he walked around and lingered for a while.The Zhao family is just an ordinary landlord, and no one in the family has obtained fame.The child who died was nicknamed Erniu, but he was actually only five or six years old. He had just started enlightenment, and took the scientific name Zhao Tianze. He was the only scholar in the Zhao family.Because he is clever and smart, it is said that he has the ability of photographic memory, and the whole family puts their hopes on him.It was also because his family loved him that he was just over eight years old, so they put on the uniform for him.

He inadvertently caught a glimpse of a ten-year-old boy in Xiaogong uniform, who he thought was Zhao Tianze's brother.But he is still a yellow-mouthed child, and there is a bit of sadness between his brows.

Ye Sirui walked over calmly, knelt down and asked him, "What's your name?"

"Zhao Daniu." Xiao'er glanced at him and answered in a low voice.

Zhao Daniu is Zhao Tianze's elder brother.Ye Sirui asked him with interest: "Why are you frowning?"

It’s okay not to ask, but when asked, Zhao Daniu burst into tears, "My brother is gone." He wiped his eyes and said with sobs, "Mom has been crying for a few days."

It is said that he has a very bad temper, but it seems that this is not the case.

"Why did my brother disappear?" Ye Sirui continued to ask without waiting for him to finish crying.

Zhao Daniu was still choked up, and what he said was unclear: "Wen Quxing, hiccup, Wen Quxing accepted him to be a disciple in the sky."

"Who did you hear that from?" Ye Sirui hurriedly approached and asked.

Zhao Daniu looked confused, as if he didn't understand, "My parents said so."

It seems that the elder brother followed his father, and the younger brother followed his mother. "Who said that first?"

Before Zhao Daniu could answer, Zhao Yaozu hurried over, "Daniu, why are you crying in front of the county master?"

"I didn't cry!" Zhao Daniu gritted his teeth and said with a stubborn face.Zhao Yaozu slapped him hard on the head twice, "You are not allowed to mess around! Go obediently and stay by your mother's side!"

Zhao Daniu turned his eyes sharply and ran away.

Ye Sirui sighed inwardly, walked around again, got on the incense sticks, and said goodbye to Zhao Yaozu.

Ye Sirui returned home, changed his clothes first, and then went to the study to see Ye Kuang.Zhou Hui was leading him to read sentence by sentence, Ye Sirui did not interrupt, and stood quietly at the door listening for a while.Ye Kuang shook his head in thought, and caught a glimpse of him inadvertently, and his smile deepened.As soon as Ye Kuang lost his mind, Zhou Hui noticed it, followed him to look over, and then looked away and continued to study.Ye Kuang carefully glanced at Zhou Hui, seeing that he didn't respond, he had to obediently listen to the class.

After reading a passage, Zhou Hui saw that the stick of incense had been burned out, and Fang came over to salute: "I have met you, my lord."

Only then did Ye Sirui pick up the curtain and enter the room, and said kindly: "Bongzhi, thank you for your hard work. You go down for a rest first, and leave me to talk to Kuang'er."

Zhou Hui hesitated to speak.

"What?" Ye Sirui hugged Ye Kuang who couldn't wait, and was slightly surprised when he turned around to see that he hadn't left yet.

"The students have made a decision. They will go to Beijing to take the exam next month. I don't know if there is someone for Master Kuang's teacher?" Zhou Hui asked with a slightly lowered head.

Ye Sirui was speechless, and then smiled, "It's a good thing you have made up your mind, so naturally you can't delay any longer. Kuang'er's studies are not very urgent, so I just need to pay attention to them. I want to wish you an early nomination on the gold list."

"My lord's kindness of support and support will be remembered in my heart." Zhou Hui bowed to the ground before stepping back.

"I'm going to change my husband?" Ye Kuang rubbed his arms in his arms, and said with some reluctance.

"Well, why, you are not willing to offer it?" Ye Sirui asked with a smile.

"It's not..." Ye Kuang said, his tone was a little melancholy, and his eyes were also a little sad.

Ye Sirui hugged him distressedly, "Don't worry, Kuang'er, I will naturally choose a gentleman who can learn for you."

"But I don't think they are as talented as Uncle Rui." Ye Kuang blurted out, his eyes sparkling and he couldn't hide his expectation: "Uncle Rui, can you teach me yourself?"

Ye Sirui was speechless for a moment. "My talents and learning are limited, and I have responsibilities, so I can only spend time with you. You still need to have a teacher who can give you lectures and answer questions at any time." He finally said in a calm tone.Ye Kuang didn't expect too much at first, he was already satisfied with his promise to spend time with him.Ye Sirui patted his head, his eyes silent.

I'm afraid it's not all because of lack of time.
