This is not the first time for the two to sleep together, the last time there was a hurricane, Xiao Yu and Pei Linzhi slept together.But it was hot at that time, the two were far away, and they didn't cover each other with a quilt, so they weren't so close.

Pei Linzhi did not sleep on the other side as Xiao Yu thought, but pulled off the quilt and lay down next to him.Xiao Yu only felt a hot breath coming over him, he subconsciously leaned in, trying to keep a little distance from Pei Linzhi.

Pei Linzhi hugged Xiao Yu's shoulders to keep him from moving: "Mr. Lang, the quilt is not big, don't stay too far away from me, it's easy to catch cold."

Xiao Yu had no choice but to stop moving. In addition to the coconut scent from the rabbit fur quilt, there was also the smell of Pei Linzhi on the end of his nose. He couldn't tell what it was, but it was quite refreshing. Fortunately, he was not a smelly man.

Xiao Yu likes to be clean, and being in a warm place like Yazhou, taking a bath every day is basic, if it is too hot, two or three baths are possible.Pei Linzhi also loves cleanliness, and washes it clean every day.

Xiao Yu yawned, turned his back to Pei Linzhi, and was about to fall asleep.This time is at most [-] o'clock in the evening. In modern society, babies would not go to bed so early, but Xiao Yu's biological clock has been formed, and there is no pressure to fall asleep.

Pei Linzhi lay quietly for a while, then suddenly said: "It's been a long time since I slept with your lord."

Xiao Yu opened his eyes: "Huh?"

Pei Linzhi continued: "Mr. Do you remember your childhood? You lived alone in the Eastern Palace since childhood, but your majesty and empress didn't know that you were afraid of the dark. Only after I went there did I realize that you were always hiding in bed and weeping quietly. Asked to stay with you. I still remember that time when you rolled off the couch with excitement, but it scared me to death. You were so painful that tears rolled in your eyes, but you didn’t cry. You climbed into bed by yourself and told me not to Talk to the servant." There was a hint of a smile in his voice.

Xiao Yu blinked, trying to recall, there was indeed such a thing: "Hey, the past is unbearable."

Pei Linzhi said slowly: "For Mr. Yu, it's something that I can't bear to look back on, but it is a precious memory in Linzhi's heart."

Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, maybe it was that lonely and helpless child who touched Pei Linzhi's heart, so he was willing to give up everything to follow, and said, "Thank you Linzhi for your company and care for many years."

Pei Linzhi raised his hand to touch the top of Xiao Yu's hair: "Rinzhi only hopes that no matter when and where Mr. Wang doesn't want to be born, Rinzhi will do."

Xiao Yu lay flat and grabbed Pei Linzhi's hand: "No one in the world can match Linzhi's friendship with me, and you are the person I trust most in this world." This is the truth, only Pei Linzhi treats him wholeheartedly, and I can fully He is the only one who believes and relies on him.

Hearing these words, Pei Linzhi finally let go of some uncertain things in his heart, and said with satisfaction: "I can be by your husband's side in this life, even if I die, I will have no regrets."

Xiao Yu felt that this sounded weird, so he said, "I don't want you to die, we all want to live, and we need to live well."

"Okay." Pei Linzhi readily agreed.

With Pei Linzhi as a big natural heater, Xiao Yu's cold symptoms disappeared the next day.But he was ordered not to go out unless Mrs. Meng finished his rabbit fur jacket.

In fact, Xiao Yu felt that even if the temperature dropped, he would not need to wear a leather jacket, so he said, "If you have time, you can go to the city to buy a few feet of cloth. Let's make a few jackets for each of us. The leather jacket is really cold." Wear it again."

Pei Linzhi agreed: "Okay. By the way, I will go to the Governor's Mansion to see how the Pearl Core is doing."

"it is good."

After dinner, Pei Linzhi went out.Xiao Yu had a full night's sleep, so he couldn't fall asleep at all right now, so he just got up and put on all his clothes. He still felt chilly, but he didn't want to lie down anymore.

Ji Hai was nowhere to be seen inside or outside the house. Yu'er's fever symptoms eased, and she was still resting in bed. Xiao Yu boiled some green onion and ginger water for her to drink. If this continues to be useless, she has to go to the hospital to get medicine.

Nothing happened anyway, Xiao Yu started weaving brown mats again. During this time, he just made two beds, one for his own bed and one for Ji Hai's brothers and sisters. Pei Linzhi also needed another bed, and Xiao Yu planned to make another bed for Ji Hai. use.

After two days, when the master carpenter is free, he invites him to come home to make some furniture, and make two more beds. Ji Hai and Yu'er are both grown up and cannot sleep together all the time.

He also plans to ask a carpenter to make a set of high tables and chairs. He is really not used to kneeling, especially in a humid climate like Yazhou, where kneeling is too easy to get rheumatism.

Xiao Yu was busy when Ji Hai hurried back from the outside, holding a coconut shell bowl in his hand.Coconut shell bowls, like clay bowls, occupy an important place in their family, because they are light and durable, and they are used more than clay bowls.

Xiao Yu called him: "Ji Hai, what did you take?"

Ji Hai said, "I begged the sorceress for some ashes and brought them back for my sister to drink."

"Bring it to me to see."

Ji Hai handed him the bowl, and Xiao Yu looked at the pinch of ashes inside, and remembered the incense ashes that Lady Meng had sprinkled on Meng Hong's wound, and said, "This thing is useless. If not, let her go to the city to see a doctor."

Ji Hai looked at him suspiciously: "We used to drink this when we were sick."

"If you don't drink anything wrong, it's your fate." Xiao Yu said.

Ji Hai didn't know how to refute. After all, not everyone who drank Shenhui will be cured. He glanced at the door of his sister's room: "Really don't drink this?"

"No. When have I lied to you?"

When Ji Hai heard this, he nodded, "Listen to your lord."

Xiao Yu poured the ashes from the bowl on the ground, and put the bowl beside him: "Come and help me fold brown pieces."

"Okay." Ji Hai obediently came over to help.

Xiao Yu said: "When the paper is made, I will teach you and Yu'er to read and write." After reading the book, you will not be so ignorant.

Ji Hai stopped: "Learn to read? I want to learn martial arts from Pei Langjun."

Xiao Yu smiled: "Learning and reading do not conflict with martial arts. Mr. Pei Lang is both civil and martial arts."

Ji Hai said "Oh", "What can you do with reading and writing?"

"You can do a lot. In the future, you will be able to write and do calculations. When you enter the city, you can work as an accountant in a shop. If you want to, you may be an official in the future." Xiao Yu said.

"I'm not an official!" Ji Hai looked very excited, "Then I can't read."

Xiao Yu looked at Ji Hai and said, "Why are you so opposed to everything from the government?"

"Because they are not good people!" Ji Hai whispered to Xiao Yu for the first time.

Xiao Yu asked him: "If you become an official, will you become a bad person like them?"

"Of course not!" Ji Hai said firmly.

Xiao Yu laughed: "So actually being an official is not terrible. The terrible thing is that bad people become officials. Not only can they not do things for the people, but they also bully and oppress the people."

Ji Hai was silent, as if he was considering Xiao Yu's words.

Xiao Yu continued: "The mission of a scholar is to cultivate one's moral character, regulate one's family, rule the country and the world. Cultivating one's morals means understanding things and distinguishing right from wrong; regulating one's family means taking good care of one's own home and family, such as taking care of your sister Yu'er; governing the country means It refers to managing the country, such as entrusting princes and ministers to benefit the people; Ping Tianxia refers to unifying the world, creating peace for all generations, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and will no longer suffer from war, oppression, poverty, hunger, and disease.”

Ji Hai seems to understand, but he knows that the world Xiao Yu finally described is beautiful, so he yearns for it: "Is there really such a good thing?"

Xiao Yu said: "Yes, as long as people are willing to work hard, there will be." He used to be very close to such an ideal society, but it was like a dream, and he returned to the pre-liberation as soon as he opened his eyes. That rich and wonderful world.

Ji Hai said: "I would like to read and write."

Xiao Yu smiled: "That's right, you don't overwhelm yourself with too many skills, but you have an extra means of making a living."

"Just like Mr. Lang?" Ji Hai asked.

Xiao Yu laughed out loud: "That's right."

Ji Hai said: "I hope one day I can be as capable as Lang Jun, and as powerful as Lang Jun Pei."

"As long as you are willing to work hard, everything is possible." Xiao Yu did not discourage his enthusiasm. He was not incompetent, but a hacker, who gathered thousands of years of human wisdom to understand such superficial things. .

Pei Linzhi went out after dinner and came back just before noon. He brought back the cloth and a box of pearl cores from the governor's mansion.

Xiao Yu opened it and took a look. Most of the bead cores inside were larger than he expected. It seems that making bead cores is really not easy.Such a large bead core can be harvested in two or three years instead of five years.

Xiao Yu also thought that someone might accidentally discover the secret of the pearl, but this is not a fake, who can prove that it is not a pearl?The artificial cultivation of pearls should be kept secret as much as possible. Only a few people can perform the operation of implanting pearl cores. Xiao Yu intends to train Pei Linzhi, Meng Hong, and even Ji Hai and Meng Si to return to do this. Try to keep it secret. After all, the emperor alone In the age of final say, the head is always hanging on the waistband of his trousers, he dare not bet on everyone's life.

Pei Linzhi said: "Xue Zhao has demarcated the sea area for pearl cultivation. He asked when we will start to raise pearls. I told him that we can go to the sea to collect shells when the weather is warmer."

"That's right. If the weather is too cold, the shells don't like to move, and the effect of implanting bead cores won't be great." Xiao Yu didn't want this kind of weather to force the pearl people to go to the sea to pick shells, which would be murder.

"One more thing, I went to the tile shop. Their lime has been sold out, and they need lime again. I asked them to come here in the afternoon to pull lime." Pei Linzhi said.

Xiao Yu was overjoyed: "Really? Then we have income again." Although a kiln of lime is only worth a few hundred or thousands of cash, it is bought without money and does not cost much. Before making a good living, selling lime is indeed a good source of income.

Pei Linzhi said: "In the last hurricane, many people's roofs were torn off and they needed to be re-roofed. Master Zheng publicized the way we stick tiles with glutinous rice mortar at home, and many people plan to adopt this method. We need more Burn some lime."

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Okay, let's burn a few more kilns of lime and earn some money for a good year."

The demand for lime was huge, so Xiao Yu hurriedly arranged for someone to re-dig the two-hole lime kiln, and several kilns were fired at the same time, so the efficiency was even higher.Xiao Yu knew that the lime business would not last long, after all, the market is so big, but earning a small amount counts, first accumulate a little capital.

One late night, while Xiao Yu was sleeping soundly, he was suddenly woken up by Pei Linzhi beside him: "Mr. Wang, wake up!"

Xiao Yu opened his eyes in a daze: "What's wrong?"

Pei Linzhi whispered, "A thief is here."
