After dressing as a villain, I am addicted to farming
Chapter 58 The Second Uncle in the Imperial Examination
"I heard from shopkeeper Li that you won't be able to give it away at the end of this month after you finish it."
Seeing Qu Zhong walk in, Fu Qing frowned lazily.
When he was studying in the academy, he received a message from shopkeeper Li, and immediately asked for leave and came to Luogu Town.
In the past three years, the two have worked together like ducks in water, and they have some sympathy for each other.
So he decided to come and ask himself.
Moreover, from Shopkeeper Li's tone, it seemed that Qu Zhong still had something to say to him.
"That's right, take a step to speak."
Nodding solemnly, Qu Zhong beckoned the guys to unload the goods, while he walked a few steps to the corner of the shop.
"What's the matter."
It was the first time seeing Qu Zhong so serious, Fu Qing also put aside the joke and followed.
"I have a friend from the north, and I heard that...there is going to be the opposite."
He raised his finger and pointed to the north, which is the territory of King Yunbei. Qu Zhong approached Fu Qing with a low voice, and said in a voice that only two people could hear.
Eyelids tightened suddenly, Fu Qing's heart skipped a beat.
rebel.....
"Is the news reliable..."
This is indeed something that cannot be said out loud, even Fu Qing couldn't help lowering his head.
"If you believe me, prepare earlier."
Qu Zhong blinked mysteriously, looking determined.
Should he tell Fu Qing that this is what he read in his book?
To be precise, there are still two months before this battle will start.
As for whether to believe it or not, it depends on Fu Qing himself.
"I believe you."
Patting Qu Zhong's shoulder, Fu Qing squeezed it hard at last.
In the past few years of getting along with him, he can be considered to have a certain understanding of Qu Zhong.
And the more we get along, the more amazed he is by his knowledge, whether it's poetry or chess, there is nothing he doesn't understand.
If he didn't know that he was born in an authentic farm family, Fu Qing might think that this person is a young master from some family.
Moreover, when he occasionally heard him mention his friends, Fu Qing also knew that his friends were indeed from all walks of life, and he could even chat a few words about the rules in the gambling house.
"One step ahead."
Feeling warm in his heart, seeing Qu Zhong smiling all the time, Fu Qing felt calmed down, and hurriedly bid farewell.
Now that this matter is on the rise, he has to rush back to the Fu family immediately and send someone to investigate, and if it is true, he has to make preparations early.
"it is good."
The two didn't talk much, one went out and left in a carriage, and the other stayed to settle the money.
"Qu Zhong, I, Fu Qing, owe you once."
The carriages started to move, Fu Qing raised the curtain of the carriage again, stretched out his head, and shouted at Qu Zhong solemnly.
Their Fu family has a great career, if they really fight, they will probably be the first to be cut.
If Qu Zhong's news this time is true, then for their Fu family, this can be regarded as a life-saving grace.
"I got it."
Smiling and waving his hands, Qu Zhong knew that this might be the last time the two met.
It wasn't until he saw the carriage turning a corner at the end of the street that he withdrew his gaze and concentrated on paying the cashier.
After going away for several years, the two should have already had different encounters when they met again.
There is no description of a character like Fu Qing in the book, so Qu Zhong doesn't know if he can change his fate this time.
Do your best.
call--
It's time to tell the Qu family about this news carefully.
As for Qujiawan, it is up to the old man Qu to decide when to say it. After all, the weather is calm now. If someone with a heart catches him, I am afraid that the Qujia family will suffer.
***
It is already deep winter, and Qujia Bay is covered with a vast expanse of whiteness.
The ox cart drove slowly to Qu's house at the end of the village, and Qu Zhong saw old man Qu squatting at the door, smoking dry cigarettes.
"father"
It was too cold, the ox cart was bare, Qu Zhong shrank his head from the cold, and his voice was a little out of tune.
Old man Qu nodded and got up, helped remove the threshold of the gate, yelled at the cow and went to the cowshed.
This cow was bought by the family the year before last, and old man Qu is the most precious.
Every time Qu Zhong went to deliver goods, he would squat at the door and wait, and he would feel at ease only if he had to lead the cows to eat forage.
"Father, come to the main room as soon as you feed the cow."
His mouth was a little frozen, Qu Zhong rubbed his cheeks to feel better.
"What's the matter, I'm going to play chess with the patriarch later."
Wiping the cow's snow-covered back with a rag, old man Qu asked casually.
In the past few years, because of selling bread, the family has been getting better every year.
Qu Kuan and Qu Hou are in charge of purchasing goods, Qu Zhong is in charge of delivering goods, and six ovens have been built in the backyard, so they are busy every day.
Only Old Man Qu was idle.
Now there is less carpentry work, and when there is no work in the field in winter, he will take the chessboard made by Qu Zhong to the patriarch to play chess.
"Something happened. I'll go find my third brother."
Seeing the old man Qu looking up at him in surprise, Qu Zhong nodded with a serious expression.
Because Qu Xiuyan went to the county town to study, Dafang and his family are all in the county town now, and only Qu Kuan will send the raw materials back every two days.
Now there are only two and three bedrooms left in the family.
Qu Hou's favorite place to stay now is the oven in the backyard, which is the warmest place in the Qu family in winter.
"Success, you go to the third child, I will come right away."
His heart tightened suddenly, old man Qu put down the cloth towel, casually grabbed a few handfuls of fodder and threw them into the trough.
It can be seen that Qu Zhong's expression is not nervous or flustered, and he can only guess randomly that something went wrong with the transaction.
Could it be that Yuluozhai no longer wants its own bread?
"Hurry up, this noodle can be kneaded."
The old Liu's loud voice in the backyard was still yelling.
If the business couldn't be done, he felt that the old woman might be so angry that she would go to the town to make a big fuss.
While thinking wildly, old man Qu subconsciously pulled out the cigarette pouch pinned to his belt.
"Dad, Daddy."
"Quickly tell me what's the matter."
As soon as the pipe was taken out, he saw Qu Zhong and Qu Hou. The old man quickly put down the pipe and asked impatiently.
"The north is reversed."
Nodding his chin in the north direction, Qu Zhong frowned and continued, "Master Fu told me that he has already returned to the city."
"What!"
"Why would you go against it?"
Whether it was old man Qu or Qu Hou, the two had never experienced war.
When Chu Chu heard Qu Zhong say this, both of them felt a little ridiculous.
"Master Fu said that it will be two months at the latest..."
After stomping on his frozen feet, Qu Zhong didn't say any more, just waiting for the two to digest it first.
"Impossible, impossible."
Staggering and falling on the chair, even the cigarette pouch on the table was swept to the ground, old man Qu just muttered.
"Second brother, what shall we do?"
On the contrary, Qu Hou accepted the matter faster than old man Qu.
He had said to his second brother before that Young Master Fu's family is one of the best in Yucheng. Since he said so, this matter should be quite close.
"Father, what do you think?"
After all, old man Qu was still the head of the family, so Qu Zhong asked him first.
"What are you talking about..."
With flustered eyes fluttering, old man Qu asked Qu Zhong in a somewhat bewildered manner.
"Let's save some food under the guise of buying new year's goods, and I will discuss the rest with Luo Orion."
Patting old man Qu's shoulder reassuringly, Qu Zhongde looked very calm.
Although he has not experienced war, he has lived for so long anyway.
There is no way to save the common people, but he can still protect the Qu family.
What's more, his space has long been filled with things.
He even saved a lot of pork, mutton, and fish, and they wouldn't go bad anyway.
After being slapped like this, old man Qu's heart miraculously calmed down. The second son is well-informed, so this matter must not be wrong.
"Then do you want to tell the patriarch about this?"
Thinking of another episode, old man Qu asked quickly.
After all, they are all surnamed Qu, and they are all of the same ancestor. It would be unkind not to mention this matter.
"Say it, but only for those with the surname Qu, and the people in the village don't say it yet."
After pondering for a while, Qu Zhong made a decision.
In the past few years, the Qu family has received a lot of criticism from the village for making a fortune from making bread.
Especially those who had a feud with the people of the Qu surname before, they have talked a lot of gossip overtly and secretly.
The oven built in the backyard was also destroyed by a neighbor surnamed Meng.
He insisted that the smoke drifted to his house, and the heat made the mud wall of his house unstable.
In the end, Qu Zhong had no choice but to build a five-meter-high wall so that the family could not find an excuse.
However, he turned around to publicize that Qu Zhong's bread is made of moldy wheat.
If these people were told in advance, I am afraid that the Qu family would be sued to the government by these people before they found a hiding place.
He dare not bet on humanity...
"Success, I'll go find the patriarch."
Without even picking up the dropped cigarette pouch, old man Qu wanted to go out immediately.
Qu Zhongxiao, I didn't see that old man Qu was so impatient before, there are still more than two months left.
"Father, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, let's talk about it after the Chinese New Year."
Hurrying to grab old man Qu, Qu Zhong smiled helplessly.
Two months later, the king of Yunbei officially declared himself king, and it may take three months before he reaches Annan.
Telling the patriarch so early now will only cause panic.
"Then you won't let dad have a good year?"
Being pulled by the arm, Old Man Qu asked dissatisfiedly with his eyes widened.
Forehead.....
I forgot for a while.
But he definitely couldn't say that, so after changing his mind, Qu Zhong said solemnly: "I want you to tell him about this when the elder brother comes back."
"Yes, yes, I forgot about this."
With a slap on his thigh, old man Qu remembered his eldest son's family far away in the county seat.
But since we're talking about my son, the fourth son who hasn't come back in the past few years...
"By the way, Mom, then you can talk about it."
Suffering from the old Liu's combat effectiveness, Qu Zhong decided to let old man Qu do this drudgery.
"We...are we going to hide in the mountains then?"
Qu Hou, who was silent for a while, opened his mouth, and immediately guessed what Qu Zhong was thinking.
Since they are storing food, they must find a place to hide it, and the most hiding place near Qujiawan is probably the Luogu Mountain behind it.
But...
"What about the big thing on the mountain..."
"Lao Luo at the end of the village and I will go up the mountain after the snow has melted a bit." Qu Zhong turned around and said.
"He gave you the wild things you brought back every time?" Qu Hou asked in amazement.
Naluo Orion lived alone in the village, his wife died early and left behind two and a half sons.
The eldest son is still a little stupid, hunting in the mountains with Luo Orion every day, and rarely sees people.
Only the youngest son goes to a nearby school and can see him once or twice.
"I went back to the mountain to rescue him once, and I got to know him well."
Rubbing his itchy ears, Qu Zhong replied casually.
It was indeed a coincidence that before he even used the method of hooking up, he met Luo Orion who was attacked by wild beasts and managed to escape while picking fruit in Luogu Mountain.
At that time, Qu Zhong enthusiastically sent people to the town with a purpose.
He also took out his own money to show the injury to others.
In order to thank Qu Zhong, Luo Orion also gave him a lot of prey.
He also gifted some bread and sauce to Luo Orion.
The two established a friendship in the traditional return of gifts, and sometimes they would go up the mountain by appointment.
With the escort of Luo Orion, Qu Zhong found many strange things.
And Qu Zhong's erudition also gave Luo Orion a lot of new ways to catch prey, and even helped him transform his bow and arrow.
It didn't take long for Qu Zhong to become the favorite of Luo Orion's family.
At the beginning because the road was blocked by heavy snow, Luo Orion sent his second son to Qu's house to play with Qu Xiuqi.
Unexpectedly, after playing for two days, Luo Yongming never went to school again after returning home.
They are clamoring to come to Qu Zhong to study here.
So now, the number of Qu Zhong's students has increased to four. In addition to delivering goods every day, he has spent a lot of effort on these few people.
"No wonder he sent all his sons to teach you."
Qu Hou sighed, and looked at Qu Zhong with a complicated expression.
Back then when Qu Zhong asked him to ask about Xiu Liang's situation in the school, he specifically went to ask.
The child only said that everyone is the same, and the progress is much worse.
So he didn't think much about it, he just thought it was because the second brother was too nervous about his child.
Taking this as a joke with Mrs. Zhu, I almost didn't get blamed to death.
But after so many years, Qu Hou can understand that, apart from Xiuyan, other children in the school are just foils.
Not to mention other things, I wrote Spring Festival couplets for my family last year, and it's easy to see whether it's good or bad.
Xiuliang's handwriting was not a bit worse than Qu Xiuqi's two brothers.
A few days ago, Mrs. Zhu told him that she wanted to give the child to the second brother to teach him for a year.
But now it happened again...
"Let's not talk about that, father, you and your third brother will go to the town tomorrow to buy some fine grains, don't save money."
Mrs. Zhu just added a young son to Sanfang last year, plus the youngest children.
This fine grain is also essential.
After thinking for a while, Qu Zhong took out his purse from his pocket: "Spend it first, I still have a lot."
"Success, I will go with the third child."
Without refusing, old man Qu reached out to take the purse and put it into his arms without looking at it.
In the past few years, he has never asked how much money this bread can earn.
But look at the wages that old women and daughters-in-law get.
Even the filial money given over the past few years adds up to hundreds of taels.
Not bad for money....
"Then I'll go see the kids first."
Qu Zhong, who was not short of money, gathered the cotton-padded jacket on his body, thinking very much about the warm climate of the previous world.
He now knows why the king of Yunbei had to wait until spring for his rebellion.
In this winter, the horses would freeze to death before the army reached Yucheng.
"Second brother, you are making some sauce."
He always felt that there was something he hadn't remembered, and he didn't think of it until Qu Zhong had reached the threshold.
If I hide in the mountains in the future, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to eat all kinds of sauces made by my second brother.
He had to ask his second brother to do more before going up the mountain.
bang--
Qu Zhong, who tripped over the threshold, looked back speechlessly.
Do you want to go on an outing, or...
"That sauce that can make soup." Feeling that he didn't make it clear, Qu Hou added another sentence.
"And make some bamboo shoot sauce that can be served with rice."
Qu old man followed unexpectedly.
Qu Zhong: ......
The old saying often says that you will be as tired as you are, and it is true.
Besides...
Turning around, he glanced at the old man Qu who was still there, and he couldn't see the panic just now.
Now he even lit his cigarette pouch and took a bite.
"Father, we are going to escape."
Qu Zhong had no choice but to remind the two of them that they were there to avoid disaster, not to move.
"I forgot if you didn't tell me..."
After smashing another cigarette pouch, Old Man Qu returned without haste.
Qu Zhong: ...
"understood."
After weakly answering the two, Qu Zhong turned around and walked away.
He is now the boss of the composer..
****
Luo Orion's home is located at the foot of Luogu Mountain.
Rather than saying that it is at the end of the village in Qujiawan, Qu Zhong thinks that it should be regarded as living away from the village.
It's a short walk over the backyard fence to the trail at the bottom of the hill.
Qu Zhong once asked why he chose such a lonely place, so that the two children in the family had no contact with the children in the village.
Luo Orion only laughs that he is withdrawn and not good at interacting with others.
It was only later that Qu Zhong found out that living alone was just to hide his identity.
The mountain road is rough.
Qu Zhong carried some food on his back, and walked surprisingly smoothly.
A few children followed behind, chirping so loudly that the birds in the forest flew up.
"Brother, there is firewood there."
Zhou Xiuhe stuffed the bread into his mouth and yelled inarticulately.
"Where, where."
Subconsciously, he turned back to look for it, but after walking a few steps, he realized that he was not here to collect firewood this time. Qu Xiuqi touched his nose in embarrassment.
In Luo Yongming's bewildered expression, he pretended to be nonchalant and returned to the team.
Qu Zhong, who was amused by this silly son, just pretended not to see it.
The two boys have been going up the mountain every day for the past few years, and they have formed a conditioned reflex. They have to bring back whatever fruit they see and wait for Qu Zhong to distinguish it.
But don't say it yet.
Last year, two people found a Ganoderma lucidum in a lump of soil.
Qu Zhong took it to the county town and sold it for 30 taels of silver, which was shared equally between the two.
In the past few years, the money earned from drying the fungus at home has also been shared equally by the children.
Speaking of which, these two boys should have dozens of taels of private money.
have to figure out a way...
The bad parent, Qu Zhong, is concentrating on planning how to cheat the money from the children.
And the two children are now chatting with Luo Yongming in full swing.
completely unaware that he was about to go bankrupt....
"My father killed a roe deer last night, and I will ask my father to make roe deer meat for us to eat."
Luo Yongming patted his chest and happily showed off to his partners.
After finishing speaking, he compared a big circle in a decent way to describe how much meat there was.
"Then let my dad do it. My dad's cooking is delicious."
Qu Xiusui, who is seven years old this year, is only one year younger than Luo Yongming, and the two are best friends now.
As soon as my good friend said that, I immediately started to show off my father.
And Qu Xiuqi, the oldest, is now 11 years old, and he looks like an adult in his green shirt.
Hearing the discussion between the two, he nodded his brother's head seriously: "It was Uncle Rob, how dare you."
Feeling anxious in his heart, Qu Zhong looked at his silly son with great comfort.
In the past few years, there has been no white teaching.
"If you want to ask if you can eat, then Uncle Rob will definitely give you some." Qu Xiuqi taught his younger brother a lesson with confidence, and Qu Zhong glanced at Qu Zhong twice.
Take back what you just said...
Almost tripped by himself, Qu Zhong burst into tears.
This book is still under-read.
The author has something to say: there will be a second update later, I am really desperately coding today~~~~~
Seeing Qu Zhong walk in, Fu Qing frowned lazily.
When he was studying in the academy, he received a message from shopkeeper Li, and immediately asked for leave and came to Luogu Town.
In the past three years, the two have worked together like ducks in water, and they have some sympathy for each other.
So he decided to come and ask himself.
Moreover, from Shopkeeper Li's tone, it seemed that Qu Zhong still had something to say to him.

He raised his finger and pointed to the north, which is the territory of King Yunbei. Qu Zhong approached Fu Qing with a low voice, and said in a voice that only two people could hear.

Now that this matter is on the rise, he has to rush back to the Fu family immediately and send someone to investigate, and if it is true, he has to make preparations early.
"it is good."
The two didn't talk much, one went out and left in a carriage, and the other stayed to settle the money.
"Qu Zhong, I, Fu Qing, owe you once."
The carriages started to move, Fu Qing raised the curtain of the carriage again, stretched out his head, and shouted at Qu Zhong solemnly.

He also took out his own money to show the injury to others.
In order to thank Qu Zhong, Luo Orion also gave him a lot of prey.
He also gifted some bread and sauce to Luo Orion.
The two established a friendship in the traditional return of gifts, and sometimes they would go up the mountain by appointment.
With the escort of Luo Orion, Qu Zhong found many strange things.
And Qu Zhong's erudition also gave Luo Orion a lot of new ways to catch prey, and even helped him transform his bow and arrow.
It didn't take long for Qu Zhong to become the favorite of Luo Orion's family.
At the beginning because the road was blocked by heavy snow, Luo Orion sent his second son to Qu's house to play with Qu Xiuqi.
Unexpectedly, after playing for two days, Luo Yongming never went to school again after returning home.
They are clamoring to come to Qu Zhong to study here.
So now, the number of Qu Zhong's students has increased to four. In addition to delivering goods every day, he has spent a lot of effort on these few people.
"No wonder he sent all his sons to teach you."
Qu Hou sighed, and looked at Qu Zhong with a complicated expression.
Back then when Qu Zhong asked him to ask about Xiu Liang's situation in the school, he specifically went to ask.
The child only said that everyone is the same, and the progress is much worse.
So he didn't think much about it, he just thought it was because the second brother was too nervous about his child.
Taking this as a joke with Mrs. Zhu, I almost didn't get blamed to death.
But after so many years, Qu Hou can understand that, apart from Xiuyan, other children in the school are just foils.
Not to mention other things, I wrote Spring Festival couplets for my family last year, and it's easy to see whether it's good or bad.
Xiuliang's handwriting was not a bit worse than Qu Xiuqi's two brothers.
A few days ago, Mrs. Zhu told him that she wanted to give the child to the second brother to teach him for a year.
But now it happened again...
"Let's not talk about that, father, you and your third brother will go to the town tomorrow to buy some fine grains, don't save money."
Mrs. Zhu just added a young son to Sanfang last year, plus the youngest children.
This fine grain is also essential.
After thinking for a while, Qu Zhong took out his purse from his pocket: "Spend it first, I still have a lot."
"Success, I will go with the third child."
Without refusing, old man Qu reached out to take the purse and put it into his arms without looking at it.
In the past few years, he has never asked how much money this bread can earn.
But look at the wages that old women and daughters-in-law get.
Even the filial money given over the past few years adds up to hundreds of taels.
Not bad for money....
"Then I'll go see the kids first."
Qu Zhong, who was not short of money, gathered the cotton-padded jacket on his body, thinking very much about the warm climate of the previous world.
He now knows why the king of Yunbei had to wait until spring for his rebellion.
In this winter, the horses would freeze to death before the army reached Yucheng.
"Second brother, you are making some sauce."
He always felt that there was something he hadn't remembered, and he didn't think of it until Qu Zhong had reached the threshold.
If I hide in the mountains in the future, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to eat all kinds of sauces made by my second brother.
He had to ask his second brother to do more before going up the mountain.
bang--
Qu Zhong, who tripped over the threshold, looked back speechlessly.
Do you want to go on an outing, or...
"That sauce that can make soup." Feeling that he didn't make it clear, Qu Hou added another sentence.
"And make some bamboo shoot sauce that can be served with rice."
Qu old man followed unexpectedly.
Qu Zhong: ......
The old saying often says that you will be as tired as you are, and it is true.
Besides...
Turning around, he glanced at the old man Qu who was still there, and he couldn't see the panic just now.
Now he even lit his cigarette pouch and took a bite.
"Father, we are going to escape."
Qu Zhong had no choice but to remind the two of them that they were there to avoid disaster, not to move.
"I forgot if you didn't tell me..."
After smashing another cigarette pouch, Old Man Qu returned without haste.
Qu Zhong: ...
"understood."
After weakly answering the two, Qu Zhong turned around and walked away.
He is now the boss of the composer..
****
Luo Orion's home is located at the foot of Luogu Mountain.
Rather than saying that it is at the end of the village in Qujiawan, Qu Zhong thinks that it should be regarded as living away from the village.
It's a short walk over the backyard fence to the trail at the bottom of the hill.
Qu Zhong once asked why he chose such a lonely place, so that the two children in the family had no contact with the children in the village.
Luo Orion only laughs that he is withdrawn and not good at interacting with others.
It was only later that Qu Zhong found out that living alone was just to hide his identity.
The mountain road is rough.
Qu Zhong carried some food on his back, and walked surprisingly smoothly.
A few children followed behind, chirping so loudly that the birds in the forest flew up.
"Brother, there is firewood there."
Zhou Xiuhe stuffed the bread into his mouth and yelled inarticulately.
"Where, where."
Subconsciously, he turned back to look for it, but after walking a few steps, he realized that he was not here to collect firewood this time. Qu Xiuqi touched his nose in embarrassment.
In Luo Yongming's bewildered expression, he pretended to be nonchalant and returned to the team.
Qu Zhong, who was amused by this silly son, just pretended not to see it.
The two boys have been going up the mountain every day for the past few years, and they have formed a conditioned reflex. They have to bring back whatever fruit they see and wait for Qu Zhong to distinguish it.
But don't say it yet.
Last year, two people found a Ganoderma lucidum in a lump of soil.
Qu Zhong took it to the county town and sold it for 30 taels of silver, which was shared equally between the two.
In the past few years, the money earned from drying the fungus at home has also been shared equally by the children.
Speaking of which, these two boys should have dozens of taels of private money.
have to figure out a way...
The bad parent, Qu Zhong, is concentrating on planning how to cheat the money from the children.
And the two children are now chatting with Luo Yongming in full swing.
completely unaware that he was about to go bankrupt....
"My father killed a roe deer last night, and I will ask my father to make roe deer meat for us to eat."
Luo Yongming patted his chest and happily showed off to his partners.
After finishing speaking, he compared a big circle in a decent way to describe how much meat there was.
"Then let my dad do it. My dad's cooking is delicious."
Qu Xiusui, who is seven years old this year, is only one year younger than Luo Yongming, and the two are best friends now.
As soon as my good friend said that, I immediately started to show off my father.
And Qu Xiuqi, the oldest, is now 11 years old, and he looks like an adult in his green shirt.
Hearing the discussion between the two, he nodded his brother's head seriously: "It was Uncle Rob, how dare you."
Feeling anxious in his heart, Qu Zhong looked at his silly son with great comfort.
In the past few years, there has been no white teaching.
"If you want to ask if you can eat, then Uncle Rob will definitely give you some." Qu Xiuqi taught his younger brother a lesson with confidence, and Qu Zhong glanced at Qu Zhong twice.
Take back what you just said...
Almost tripped by himself, Qu Zhong burst into tears.
This book is still under-read.
The author has something to say: there will be a second update later, I am really desperately coding today~~~~~
