Rebirth of the first courtier

Since Hu Li's arrival, Xiao Qi'ao's yard has become much more lively, especially Qiu Xi, who loves to play and play, and has a lively temperament. Will turn pale with fright, and after gradually discovering that Xiao Qi'ao never gets angry, he becomes more and more courageous.

Although Xiao Qi'ao's temperament was not good, but he was not really angry because of these trivial things.And seeing Hu Li smiling and happy all day long, Xiao Qi'ao's fatigue from the day will subconsciously dissipate a lot, and he will relax a lot.

Just for this, Xiao Qiao has already planned to formally take Hu Li into his hands. Even if Hu Li is a simple young man who is no match for his subordinates in his previous life, he is willing to take this young man just because of his character. Leave.After all, it is very comfortable to get along with Hu Li, who doesn't have much thought, and there is no need to be careful all the time to prevent being hurt.

Early in the morning, Xiao Qi'ao watched Hu Li eating happily, and unconsciously drank more bowls of porridge. Qiu Xi, who was gradually not afraid of Xiao Qi'ao, said with a joke: "Young master is a lucky star, since you Come on, the young master can eat more every day."

Hu Li raised his face from the bowl, swallowed his mouth and grinned, "Brother Xiao eats too little. I heard people say that Brother Xiao is not in good health. It must be because Brother Xiao eats too little every day. I ate too little." He greeted Qiu Xi and served Xiao Qi'ao a bowl of his favorite chicken porridge.

Xiao Qi'ao pursed her lips, and picked up the bowl of chicken porridge under Hu Li's clear gaze.The stomach that had been full for a long time made faint protests, Xiao Qi'ao put down the porridge bowl, wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and seeing Hu Li still eating deliciously, he couldn't help showing a smile.

"I'm going out today. You stay in the yard and don't run around." Xiao Qi'ao stroked his sleeves. Yesterday his teacher Li Xingming sent a message from Mr. Li's residence, asking him to go there after the teacher's court today. a trip.

Only Hu Li was left in the mansion, if he didn't give some instructions, he would have to run out of the courtyard to mess around, and it would be troublesome if he caused trouble.Although it can be solved, the less troublesome things are, the better.

When Hu Li heard that he was not allowed to leave the yard today, he pouted, stopped drinking the chicken porridge, and kept looking at Xiao Qi'ao with blinking fox eyes.Xiao Qi'ao was unmoved, and went to the study with Shuzhu. Hearing Hu Li's muttering voice behind him, a smile flashed in Xiao Qi'ao's eyes.

"Eldest young master, I heard from Nanny Liu that the young master Biao is coming today. If the young master meets the young master Biao, it will be bad." Shuzhu looked at his own young master pampering the young master he picked up. , so I thought a little more about some news.

The corners of Xiao Qi'ao's mouth curled up slightly. Although Qi Qingyun was a little clever, he couldn't take on great responsibilities.However, no matter what, Qi Qingyun is also his cousin in name, since he likes Xiao Jingshu's color, as a cousin, he must let him fulfill his wish.

"Shu Zhu, don't let anyone enter the yard today, and Hu Li don't let him go out either." It's rare for Qi Qingyun to come here once, and it's not a waste of time to let him see Xiao Jingshu.

"Yes, Eldest Young Master." Shuzhu rolled his eyes, since the day Eldest Young Master picked up the young master, he has always treated his wife in a strange manner, and now he doesn't even let Young Master Biao enter the yard.Although the young master didn't like to see the young master Biao very much in the past, but on the surface he has always kept his voice open, and he doesn't know what happened to the young master?

Xiao Qiao didn't have time to pay attention to Shuzhu's thoughts, his main thing today was to go to the teacher's house.Since he came back, he hasn't been to the teacher's house yet. He feels that he can hide his abnormality from everyone in the Xiao family, but he is not sure that he can hide it from the teacher.With the keenness of the teacher, you will definitely notice the difference.

After Xiao Qi'ao stayed in the study for half the morning, he took Shuzhu to the Li Mansion in a carriage. The concierge saw him and quickly opened the door to let him in.

"Master Xiao, you are here, but the master hasn't come back yet."

"I'll go pay my respects to my teacher first." Xiao Qi'ao smiled at the porter, took Shuzhu and followed the servants to Mrs. Li's place.

As soon as he entered Mrs. Li's courtyard, he heard cries of pain coming from inside. Xiao Qi'ao stood at the entrance of the courtyard and paused before continuing to walk in.

"Come here, see if I don't beat you to death, you jump up and down all day, and now you dare to skip class!" Mrs. Li's loud voice passed through the curtain, and the servants in the yard bowed their heads and remained silent.

"Mother, ouch, stop beating, didn't I just skip class because I heard Dad said Senior Brother Xiao was coming today? Hey, stop beating..." The voice of Li Wenhuai, the youngest son of the Li family, was louder and louder. The exclamation of people.

"Ma'am, Young Master Xiao is here." The servants raised the curtain, and as soon as Xiao Qi'ao entered, they saw Li Wenhuai running around, and Madam Li was chasing after him with a feather duster.

"Master, Wen Huai." Xiao Qi'ao signaled the nanny next to Madam Li to help Madam Li to sit down first, and then ordered Wen Zhu to follow Wen Huai, who jumped onto the pillar next to her, "What's the matter? Madam Hurry up and pour a cup of tea for the teacher's wife, and take a breath."

Mrs. Li furrowed her eyebrows out of breath, seeing Li Wenhuai who was hiding behind Xiao Qi'ao was furious again, but she didn't get angry because of Xiao Qi'ao's presence, "Qi'ao, sit down, this brat skipped class." He even used you as an excuse to jump up and down all day long, without stopping."

Xiao Qi'ao smiled, and asked the maids to bring out some delicious snacks that she brought, "Wen Huai is lively, although he is a little naughty, but he has never lagged behind in his studies, so you don't have to be too restrained, Mrs. he."

Li Wenhuai answered in a low voice from behind: "That's right, it's not that I haven't finished my homework, why do I have to beat me up every time?"

Li Wenhuai felt that his voice was not loud, but in fact, everyone in the room heard it. Mrs. Li's chest rose and fell with anger, and the nurse next to her was so scared that she hurriedly gave her a sigh of relief.

"Shut up, if you want to be as obedient as Qi'ao, I won't beat you up every time." Mrs. Li was obviously very angry at Li Wenhuai, and she waved her hands and reprimanded weakly. .

Li Wenhuai wanted to say something, but he shut up when he saw Xiao Qiao shook his head at him.After Mrs. Li passed her breath, she resumed her usual dignified lady's appearance, talking to Xiao Qi'ao in a soft and slow voice.

Li Wenhuai wanted to interrupt several times but was blocked back, until almost noon, when Mr. Li came back from court, Li Wenhuai stuck out his tongue and ran out of the house.

"Father, you are back."

Master Li looked at his younger son with narrowed eyes, and said in an unclear tone: "Why are you back at this time?"

Li Wenhuai didn't realize it, and said carelessly: "I heard that Brother Xiao is coming today, so I came back early."

Master Li glanced at his youngest son with a half-smile, then stopped talking to him and started chatting with Xiao Qi'ao.

Mr. Li went to the court in the early morning, and he just came back now, he was already hungry.At this moment, I only said a few words, and I ordered people to eat first, and everything will be done after lunch.

After having lunch with the teacher, Xiao Qi'ao followed the teacher into the study room, and Li Wenhuai, who had been following them, was mercilessly locked out of the door.

"Sit down." Mr. Li changed into his normal clothes, and now he was swaying on the rocking chair, looking very relaxed.

Xiao Qi'ao didn't refuse, and sat on a carved pear wood chair beside Master Li, looking at Qing Lingling's eyes that were actually like the deep sea, just quietly looked at Master Li, allowing him to scrutinize him.

"What happened?" Mr. Li's abrupt words broke the peace in the room.Xiao Qi'ao sighed inwardly, as expected, she couldn't hide it from the teacher, "I just realized that I used to live a stupid life, but now I just think about it, teacher."

A glint flashed in Master Li's eyes, and he raised his eyes to look at his most satisfied little disciple, "Just think about it, I reminded you a long time ago, but you never believed it."

"It's the students who are stupid, and the things that are superficial every day have been ignored." Xiao Qi'ao looked at the sunny weather outside the window and chuckled.

"Let's not talk about that, are you going to give it a try this year?" Master Li half closed his eyes again, and asked while swinging the rocking chair.

Xiao Qi'ao lowered her eyelashes, and there seemed to be a faint smile on the corner of her mouth: "Students are willing to give it a try, and they will definitely live up to the teacher's reputation."

He needs strength, and the imperial examination is the easiest thing and the fastest shortcut for him.

"Well, since you have an idea, don't slack off these days." Master Li is 1 reassured about his satisfied little disciple, so he just mentioned a simple sentence and stopped talking, but talked about it. Another thing, "This morning, the issue of Li Chu was brought up again, what do you think?"

Xiao Qi'ao smiled slightly, "Teacher was joking, this is a royal affair, what has it to do with us. Besides, His Majesty is in his prime, so it's too early to say such things."

Mr. Li wobbled on the rocking chair and replied, "No, it's too early to think about it now. Alright, you go and write a policy theory, let's use 'country' as the topic."

"Yes, the student will write now." Xiao Qi'ao chuckled, stood up and walked to the desk, spread out a large piece of paper, picked up the pen after a little thought, then lowered his head and moved the pen quickly.

In the afternoon, Xiao Qi'ao had been chatting with Mr. Li besides writing a policy theory, and asked Mr. Li to call Xiao Qi'ao a monster.

Xiao Qi'ao didn't say a word, what he heard and knew was the result of the rough ten years in his previous life.

Knowing that the sun was setting in the western frontier, Master Li let people go.When Shuzhu saw Xiao Qiao coming out, he immediately trotted over, "Master, are you going back?"

"Well, go back." Xiao Qi'ao said, nodding and smiling to Li Wenhuai who was waving at him not far away, then went to Mrs. Li's yard to say goodbye and left.

Just after returning to Xiao's mansion, she saw Qiuxi looking anxious, walking around outside the yard with tears in her eyes, tears fell down when she saw him.

"Eldest young master, you are back, go and see the young master." Qiu Xi choked up, if she hadn't taken good care of the young master today, the young master would not...he wouldn't have been bullied by the young master and the others.

Xiao Qi'ao frowned suddenly, and the gentleness between his eyebrows and eyes disappeared in an instant, and the face that was looking at Wen Run turned cold and severe in an instant, "What's wrong with Hu Li?"

Qiu Xi was taken aback by Xiao Qi'ao, her choked up voice paused for a moment, seeing Xiao Qi'ao's sharper eyes, Qiu Xi swallowed, and cried: "The young master was beaten by the young master and the young miss. Pushed into the pond together, and prevented the servants from being rescued, it was the second young master who passed by to send the young master back."

"Pond, I remember that Hu Li knows how to water." After Xiao Qi'ao finished speaking, the fierce Qiuxi in his eyes no longer dared to look at it, so he could only reply dully, "But the young master and the eldest miss have been making people hold the little one. The young master presses it into the water." Having said this, Qiu Xi cried softly again, "Even if the young master sees the water again, it won't work after tossing for nearly half an hour. Eldest young master, go and see the young master."

Xiao Qi'ao's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, she knew that Qi Qingyun was not good enough for a long time, but she never thought that she would really dare to provoke him.He didn't believe that Qi Qingyun didn't know Qiuxi who was always by his side, it seemed that he was too soft-hearted before.

"Have you invited a doctor?" Xiao Qi'ao walked towards the side room with a sullen face, and Qiu Xi hurriedly trotted along, "The second young master helped to invite a doctor. The doctor said that as long as the young master's fever subsided, he would be fine, but if the fever If you can't retreat, then..."

"That's it?" Xiao Qiao's eyes froze again when he heard Xia Yang's voice calling the little girl to change the water and handkerchief and urging the small kitchen to boil medicine from the side room from time to time.
