Xiao Shi's trivia

Master Xiao has been very troubled recently, except for going to court to deal with official business, he has been moaning and sullen when he returns home all day long.No, today Xiu Mu didn't need to go to him early, he just lay down on the stone table in the courtyard and complained to himself...

"Master's everything is ready, when are we going back to the old house?" The butler asked in a sonorous and forceful voice as he searched all the way and stood by the stone table.

Senior Madam Xiao quietly raised his head and glanced at his housekeeper, then lay back on his stomach.

"It's getting late, master. If you don't leave at noon, you won't be able to catch up with the meal at the old house." The voice was as calm as water without any waves.

Master Xiao raised his head this time when he heard the words, but his expression and tone were extremely sad: "Ah Ren, you are cutting your master's flesh with a sharp knife!"

"Master, there are some things that cannot be avoided." Ah Ren straightened his slightly bent back and said.

"You are not the one who is forced to go on a blind date with Huan Fei Yan Shou every time you go back. Of course you can face it directly without any pressure." Senior Bachelor Xiao propped his chin with an expression of lovelessness.

"Then is the master going back today? Or is he not going back?" The housekeeper continued after asking without any sympathy: "The old lady sent a letter saying that the eldest son sent a lot of big crabs. If the master decides not to go back After that..."

"Go back, who said I won't go back."

As a result, as soon as we heard the word crab, before the steward finished speaking, our senior scholar Xiao immediately came back to life with full blood: "Go, let's hurry up, or we won't be able to catch up with my big crab."

So under the sigh of "I knew it would be like this" from the housekeeper, Senior Bachelor Xiao ran to the old house at the fastest speed.

However, Xiao Dashi, who thought he would be surrounded by swarms after returning home, unexpectedly entered the house this time, but no one came to answer him, so he retreated to the door and grabbed a servant who was leaning on the door frame and snoozing and asked: " What about the people in this mansion?"

The servant, who was sleeping soundly, woke up immediately after being caught by him, waving his hands: "Where is the evildoer daring to come and make trouble in my ancestral home of the scholar?"

Upon hearing this, Grand Master Xiao kicked the servant's calf: "What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Have you ever seen such a fairy?"

"Oh hello, isn't this our young master?" The servant who was kicked was completely awake, and when he saw the person standing in front of him, he immediately showed an incomparably bright smile: "Master, you are finally here!" I'm back, if you don't come here, I will start a hand-to-hand conversation with Zhou Gong, you don't know that the old man is very difficult to deal with, and after three games, he forcibly didn't let the slave win a piece!"

"Yes, you!" Senior Madam Xiao had a surprised expression on his face: "I remember that when I came back last time, you couldn't even take chess pieces!"

"Hey..." The servant wiped his nose and laughed so hard that the corners of his eyes could kill mosquitoes: "Isn't this the hard work of hanging the beam and awl and stabbing the ass so as not to embarrass you, young master?"

Upon hearing this, Grand Master Xiao stretched out his hand and patted Jia Ding's shoulder and praised without hesitation: "Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect that your literary talent has soared in just a short period of time, and your future is boundless!"

The servant said proudly and not at all modest: "Young master, I thank you for your praise. From now on, I must be familiar with ancient and modern studies and continue to study hard. One day, I will strive to add another champion to our Xiao family."

"Okay, it's true enough!" Grand Master Xiao opened the folding fan a few times and reminded in a low voice: "Keep a low profile, let's keep a low profile..."

Therefore, when the butler led the boy over after moving the things on the carriage, he saw his master standing at the gate with a servant in a rather inconspicuous manner, laughing non-stop. Reminded: "Master, do crabs still go in and eat?"

"Ah?" The smile of Grand Master Xiao froze on the spot.

"It seems that the meal is over." The housekeeper pointed to the sun and said regretfully.

"Ahhh—" Grand Master Xiao put away the folding fan and lifted the hem of his clothes, rushing in: "Mother, leave some crabs for me—"

The servant and the butler looked at each other, the former stood calmly and returned to the door and continued to watch the door, the latter couldn't help but touched the sweat on his forehead with his cuff and sighed secretly: "Shame, what a shame..."

However, no matter how anxiously our Grand Master Xiao rushed to the dining room, he still didn't eat a single crab at noon that day, oh no, he didn't even gnaw on a small crab leg, so he felt a burst of mournful pain. Amidst the heartfelt grievances, the old man was so excited that he fell to the ground and fell unconscious.

"Hey, my son—" Following the cry of the old lady, everyone hurriedly lifted him up and sent him to the bedroom.

However, things are far from that simple, because an unexpected thing happened when Master Xiao woke up under the eager expectation of everyone.

"Who am I? Where am I? Who are you?"

That's right, our Grand Master Xiao actually lost his memory because of crabs.

"Hey, my son—" the old lady cried again.

Master Xiao shrank into the bed without shame, looked at his old mother with irritated eyes and said: "I...I...I don't know Madam, you...you...you are so strange scary."

The old lady: "..."

Everyone: "..."

In the end, the doctor stood up and made a rescue: "Ma'am, don't be surprised, patients with amnesia speak like this... Well, it's so shocking."

Everyone nodded in understanding.

After the butler poured a glass of water and handed it to Senior Madam Xiao, he rarely asked tentatively in a soft voice: "Does the master remember anything?"

Master Xiao drank the tea in his cup, then tilted his head while holding the empty cup, thought seriously and replied: "Crab!"

After everyone exclaimed, they all exited the bedroom without sympathy.

"This..." The doctor looked at the people who had already left, and then looked back at Xiao Dashi, who was still curled up on the bed, stepped forward and said a few words to rest more, and then left with the medicine box.

The butler stood in front of the bed and observed his master for a while, then thought over and over again, and finally took a pen and paper, wrote two letters and ordered them to be sent to the palace and a certain prince's mansion respectively.
