The second man is dedicated to his career

"Boom, boom, boom-"

In the middle of the night, there was a hasty knock on the door of the original mansion. The doorman was awakened by the knock, and walked to the door full of resentment, his voice was not happy: "Who, it's the middle of the night, What's the fuss?"

"It's me, I'm the eldest son's book boy Maomao! Woooooo...it's not good, son...young master, he..."

Mao Mao didn't forget to cry when she spoke, and the sound of knocking on the door never stopped.The concierge only vaguely heard the eldest son, but he didn't realize it for a long time. What could happen if Mr. Xiyuan had already rested at home?

It took him a long time to remember that there was another eldest son in the family who was sent to Jiangnan to recuperate since he was a child.

It was said that it was sent away to recuperate, but in fact, even the servants in the mansion knew that this was just an excuse to send the eldest son out. If it was a young master, he would stay in the mansion no matter how he recuperated.

The concierge went to open the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a [-]-year-old boy with sweat and tears all over his face. He felt that his whole face was wet.

The concierge frowned: "What happened this late at night?"

Mao Mao thought about what the son had taught him before, that he must cry emotionally, so that people would feel that something big happened at first glance.

But I can't speak clearly, sometimes it's the hesitation to speak clearly that makes people the most angry. You can say one sentence and cry three times, and it's right to make you angry enough to want to beat him.

Mao Mao didn't know when the young master learned to be bad, but he trusted what the young master said unconditionally, and the young master was much smarter than him.

It's just... You really don't know how to hit him, do you?

"Young Master, Young Master, he... woo woo woo, we met bandits on the road, and you were... then... woo woo..."

The concierge was about to be panicked to death, just one sentence, repeated for a long time and still missed the point, what about the bandits?What's the point?

The concierge originally wanted to shake Mao Mao's head to wake him up, but when Mao Mao saw the concierge stretching out his hand, he suddenly realized and pretended to faint.

Yuan Wuji didn't teach him this trick, he just learned to draw inferences from one example, and now the concierge is even more anxious.

Although this eldest son has not been favored all the time, but this time the old lady specially asked someone to go to Jiangnan to invite the eldest son back, and the master and wife have always been concerned about this matter. The concierge knew that the master must care about this matter, so he also He could only risk being scolded to inform Steward Li, but Steward Li woke up Yuan Pei and Mrs. Zhang overnight.

Being woken up in the middle of the night, Yuan Pei originally wanted to get angry, but when he heard that something happened to his eldest son who was away, Mrs. Zhang reminded him that it was related to the future of his younger son, so he held back his anger.

"Where's the book boy who came to report the letter?"

"Master, the little book boy has passed out. I don't know whether it's from fright or tiredness. I've already sent someone to call for a doctor!"

Yuan Pei waved his hand impatiently, his eldest son is really a waste, even the book boy who is accompanying him is a waste!What's the use of going back to the government to report even a letter?

"Master, let's go and see that child. After all, he is your own flesh and blood. Besides, Yuan'er wants to enter the imperial school, so he needs more help from his brother."

Mrs. Zhang has a gentle and virtuous appearance, but in fact this helper sounds nice.

Nowadays, Taixue is the most powerful institution of learning. The masters in Taixue are all well-known people in the world. The conditions for entering Taixue are also relatively strict. They must either be relatives of the emperor or enter the top ten in the annual admissions examination.

Yuan Pei's youngest son, Yuan Xiyuan, was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child. He is ignorant all day long, let alone getting into the top ten, even the top [-] is completely impossible for him.

But entering Taixue to study is undoubtedly of great benefit to future fame and fame. After all, the chief examiner of the imperial examination is also from Taixue.

It was at this time that Mrs. Zhang remembered Yuan Wuji who had been sent to other places since she was a child.

Yuan Wuji's biological mother, Princess Lin, is the daughter of the Eldest Princess, and the current cousin of the Holy Majesty is naturally a relative of the emperor.

It's just that after the death of Princess Lin, the Yuan family has nothing to do with the royal family. The only person who can be related to the royal family is Yuan Wuji, who has been kept outside by the Yuan family.

It's about her son's future, Zhang is of course very concerned about it, and wants to know what happened to Yuan Wuji.

However, the little book boy who came to report the letter passed out without saying anything clearly. The doctor came to see that the little book boy was fine, but he was too nervous to run all the way.

Now Yuan Pei and Zhang are even more disturbed and can't sleep. They all know that Yuan Wuji is not in good health, but they didn't pay much attention to it in the past. Now the little book boy is so nervous, and they are also afraid that Yuan Wuji will return home. Jing died on the road.

What Zhang thought was that even if Yuan Wuji died, he would wait until he came back, and bring his son into the Taixue before he died!

Yuan Pei had a rare feeling of being a father, after all, he was also his son... It's just that the elder son looked too much like his mother, so Yuan Pei couldn't face it, so he could only send him away.

In fact, it is true that the little book boy is nervous, but it is not that he was nervous without traces. He is nervous because he told such a big lie for the first time, and he is afraid that his acting skills will not show the truth.But obviously, Yuan Pei and Zhang never thought that a little book boy would dare to tell such a big lie in front of his master. After all, lying would not do him any good.

As the masters, Yuan Pei and Zhang naturally didn't want to stay in the servant's room and wait for the little book boy to wake up, but they were also anxious, so they didn't sleep well all night.

On the other hand, the little book boy, thinking that he will go to the Dachang Princess' mansion again tomorrow, needs a good rest to replenish his strength and continue to cry tomorrow, instead he pretends to be dizzy and falls asleep.

There was a lot of commotion in the house, even the old lady Yuan was woken up.

Elderly people can't fall asleep once they are woken up.

The masters of the house couldn't sleep well, and the servants couldn't sleep either. The person who slept the best this night turned out to be the little book boy.

The next day, Xiao Shutong pretended to be Yoyo when he woke up. As soon as he woke up, he was taken to see Yuan Pei and Mrs. Zhang. The old lady Yuan was also there, including Yuan Xiyuan and Yuan Xiangyu. A junior is also there.

The little book boy's face collapsed again, tears came as soon as he said it, and flowed down his cheeks.

The errand assigned to him by Yuan Wuji is indeed very suitable for him. The little book boy cries whenever he says, and his eyes were swollen from crying so much yesterday. With his appearance, it is very convincing to say that he passed out from crying yesterday.

The little book boy cried and told how the young master valued the old lady's birthday, how he took the trail all the way, met a robber and was caught by the robber up the mountain, and encountered a fire and other situations intermittently. The first half of what he said was all the truth. It's just that he still said one sentence and cried three times, which made Yuan Pei extremely impatient.

Because of this matter, he didn't sleep well all night, and he was restless early in the morning. As a result, the book boy was so anxious to speak, he wanted to replace the book boy Yuan Wuji now!

"Say the point! Say the point! Say the point!"

Yuan Pei felt that he hadn't been so grumpy for a long time.

The little book boy looked frightened, and finally stopped crying a little bit: "Although the young master has saved his life, he is very weak now, and he vomits blood from time to time, so the young master still wants to rush back to congratulate the old ancestor. Longevity, but was stopped by Fu Bo and the others, the son's body can't stand the toss, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep up with the ancestor's birthday, and I hope the ancestor will forgive me!"

The following words are naturally false, all of which were taught by Yuan Wuji.

As the little book boy said, he also took out a blood-stained handkerchief and prepared to hand it over.

Yuan Pei and the others backed away in disgust: "Enough! You don't need to present this kind of filth, you go back and tell him first, if you are not in good health, you don't need to rush back, just stay..."

Before Yuan Pei finished speaking, Mrs. Zhang tugged at his sleeves. Only then did he realize that there is only less than one month left before the enrollment of Taixue this year. It is okay if he does not come back for the old lady’s birthday. It's the same without him for many years, but if he hasn't come back when Taixue recruits students, the youngest son will have to wait another year to enter Taixue.

Yuan Pei thought for a while, and finally said: "Let him come back within a month. It's better to let the doctor in Beijing see his illness."

Even the little Shutong didn't believe Yuan Pei's words. If he really cared about his young master and knew that the doctor in the capital was better at seeing a doctor, why would he deliberately send the young master to Jiangnan?

This kind of false paternal love is really better than nothing!

The little book boy kept saying yes, and Yuan Pei also gave him some rewards, so he sent him back to report to Yuan Wuji.

The little book boy naturally didn't go back directly, he still had another play to perform.

So as soon as he left the original mansion, the little book boy cried again, crying and howling, but this time he spoke very clearly, almost allowing everyone around him to hear what he was saying clearly.

Naturally, the daytime was not as deserted as the night, there were many people outside, and when he cried like this, almost everyone surrounded him.

Many people in the Yuan family knew about an elder son who was recuperating in the south of the Yangtze River, but they hadn't seen that elder son come back for so many years, so they didn't expect to be so seriously ill.

But being so seriously ill, and thinking about coming back to celebrate grandma's birthday, it's really a filial piety.

Yuan Wuji let the little book boy cry all the way to let everyone have an impression that he is not in good health and that he is filial.

At that time, the Yuan family will not be able to use this point to attack him, saying that he has no conscience, that he is not filial...

With preconceived impressions, if the original family members say that he is not filial, it will make people feel that the family is treating the eldest son harshly.

The little book boy cried all the way to the Dachang Princess's mansion, and the guards at the gate of the Dachang Princess' mansion wanted to drive him away. While crying, the little book boy said that he was the original Wuji Shutong, and took out a token and asked the guards to hand it over, saying I have important news to report to the Eldest Princess.

Yuan Wuji didn't know why the Eldest Princess wanted to ignore his grandson, the reason why he let the little book boy do this was to let the Eldest Princess remember him.

No matter what the reason is, at least on the surface, the Eldest Princess still loves her daughter very much. It can be said that she didn't know Yuan Wuji's bad situation even though she didn't care about it before.But now that all the bookboys from Yuan Wuji came to her, she couldn't pretend that she didn't know anything.

The eldest princess received the little book boy, and then the little book boy performed the previous performance in Yuan Mansion again.

Sure enough, it was exactly as Yuan Wuji expected, not only did the eldest princess not blame the little book boy, but she also gave him a lot of rewards, and sent someone to go with him to bring Yuan Wuji back.

The little book boy cried in two places, although it was very difficult to cry, but I have to say that he completed the task assigned to him by Yuan Wuji very well.

At this time, in Linzhou, which is far away from the capital, Yuan Wuji was taking Xiao Tan to a shop called Zhenbao Pavilion.

Zhenbao Pavilion is a good place. There are all kinds of weird things here. Of course, there are good things and bad things. As long as you are a discerning person, you can find what you want.

Xiao Tan followed behind Yuan Wuji, and he said hesitantly: "Master, Mao Mao has been away for several days, do you think he can really do things?"

In Xiao Tan's eyes, Mao Mao has always been unreliable. He was sent out by Yuan Wuji to manage the store, and Yuan Wuji found Mao Mao when he was looking for the book boy again. He can't even think about it.

"Of course, don't underestimate his crying skills."

Xiao Tan: "..."

Why did he feel that the young master seemed to praise Mao Mao, but he didn't seem to.

When Yuan Wuji was speaking, he picked up something that looked like a matchbox. As soon as his hand touched it, the shopkeeper quickly said, "Young master, be careful, this is a rainstorm pear blossom needle."

"Rainstorm pear flower needle?"

Yuan Wuji picked it up with some interest, he looked up and down carefully, and operated it under the guidance of the shopkeeper, Dang even decided to buy the "Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle".

This body is too weak. Although he has hired killers from the blood alliance as guards, Yuan Wuji certainly wouldn't be too much with more self-protection abilities.

There are so many good things in Zhenbao Pavilion, and Yuan Wuji even found some gunpowder in the end.

The amount of gunpowder is very small, so it can't cause any large-scale damage, but... Yuan Wuji has already thought of the usefulness of these things.

Xiao Tan followed Yuan Wuji's side, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became. What kind of things did you buy, the young master seemed to be very dangerous.

However, the surprise was the surprise, but Xiao Tan was delighted in his heart.

The former son couldn't be said to be unintelligent, but he still had unrealistic fantasies about the Yuan family.Although he doesn't want to go back in his heart, as long as the original family shows some missing, he will still choose to go home.

But now, Xiao Tan feels that if the young master returns to the original family, the unlucky ones will definitely not be the young master, but the original family... This is very good.

In any case, Xiao Tan is definitely on the side of the young master.

Yuan Wuji didn't know what Xiao Tan was thinking at the moment. After finding what he wanted, he asked the shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion if he could customize some things?

Sure enough, the shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion did not disappoint Yuan Wuji, he became interested as soon as he heard Yuan Wuji's words, and asked Yuan Wuji what he wanted to order.

Yuan Wuji showed the blueprint he drew to the shopkeeper, and told him to make it with high-quality rosewood.

Xiao Tan followed behind Yuan Wuji, he also looked at Yuan Wuji's drawings, and then the corner of his mouth twitched.How does he feel that the shape of the object...

"My lord, is this your birthday gift to the old lady?" Xiao Tan asked uncertainly.

"That's natural. How about it? Do you think my grandma will like it?"

Xiao Tan: "..."

Like it...she will definitely like it very much!Then curse you in my heart every day!

The birthday of the old lady in Yuan's family is coming soon, Yuan Wuji is walking and playing, so naturally he did not catch up with the old lady's birthday.

But no matter whether Yuan Wuji was present or not, the old lady's birthday was still very festive and grand.

After all, Yuan Pei is also the servant of each household department, and there are quite a lot of people who came to celebrate the old lady's birthday, and because of Yuan Wuji's relationship, even the eldest princess came this time. The whole old face smiled brightly like a chrysanthemum.

Everyone offered their congratulatory gifts one after another. Looking at those congratulatory gifts, the old lady smiled even more happily.

Receiving gifts is naturally a happy thing, especially most of these gifts are relatively expensive.

Just when the old lady was smiling the happiest, someone came to report that the eldest son had sent a congratulatory gift.

The original old lady's smile froze for a moment, she didn't expect Yuan Wuji to come here, but since a gift came, she was still a bit complacent in her heart, so she asked someone to bring the gift.

The gift Yuan Wuji gave was quite big, it was carried by several people, and it was covered with a layer of festive red cloth.

Everyone looked over curiously.

Seeing such a large object, the old lady Yuan also had some expectations in her heart. She walked over and lifted off the red cloth covering it with her own hands. Standing in front of the old lady was an exquisite single rosewood cabinet, the material is very Well, just by looking at it, you know that it is very valuable.

However, no one expected that someone accidentally knocked over the red sandalwood cabinet, and the vertical cabinet turned into a horizontal one. That shape, that style...it looked like a coffin.

At this moment, the old lady's face turned green, and she didn't care whether her grandson did it on purpose or not, at this moment her heart was filled with disgust.

Older people are more afraid of death, and she doesn't even want people to mention it.

But at her birthday banquet, his good grandson actually gave her a coffin-like cabinet, no matter how precious and rare the material of this cabinet was, the old lady Yuan didn't like it at all.

For a while, the scene was extremely embarrassing.

Obviously, many people also saw what this cabinet looked like.
