Farming and teaching across different worlds

She was a little embarrassed, but there was a slight burning in her heart, and she exchanged a tender look with Ji Xiuran.

Hearing such an explicit confession, Boss Zheng's face froze for a moment, paused for a moment, and then pretended not to hear, picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine, but the strange thing was that the taste of the wine he drank was not right.

When Zeng Junhui came back from his work, he saw that the three of them had already called each other brothers and chatted happily. His heart was instantly unbalanced, and he said, "Ji Xiuran, you, the second boss, is too mean. You enslave me every day, won't your conscience ache? , If you don’t toast me today, this matter will never end.”

Ji Xiuran gave him a sideways look with disdain and said, "If you want to drink, just talk, so much nonsense, come on, this glass is done." Ji Xiuran picked up the flagon and filled him with a glass of wine, handed it over, and then picked up his own glass , Said: "Come, I respect you." He raised his head and drank the third glass of wine today.

Zeng Junhui took the wine and drank it happily.Shi Jingchen, who was sitting on the side and didn't have time to stop Ji Xiuran, felt inexplicably unhappy. He glanced at Zeng Junhui sternly, seeing Zeng Junhui, who was happily seated and about to have a drink with a few people, felt a chill in his heart, and said with a stiff face: "Shi Why do you look at me like that?"

Boss Zheng looked at Zeng Junhui sympathetically and said: "Brother Shi just said that Brother Ji doesn't drink too much. I didn't dare to let go of drinking with him just now. You encouraged him as soon as you came. It's all right now. You must be drunk." .”

Zeng Junhui listened to Boss Zheng's words, and said gruffly: "No way, I've only drank so much, and the amount of alcohol is too shallow. Could it be that this is the legendary pouring in one glass."

"It's not a cup, but it's almost the same. It's only three cups." Boss Zheng continued his words from the side.

At this time, Ji Xiuran, who had already drank three glasses of wine, smelled of alcohol, and began to cry silently while sitting in his seat.Ever since Ji Xiuran got drunk at the last wine tasting session and knew that he would cry when he was drunk, he has been very careful. He usually only takes a sip at home and never lets himself get drunk, but today he forgot that his body has long since disappeared. After drinking the amount of the previous life, I drank it all at once, and when the wine got stronger, tears began to flow down.

The way he sat on the seat like this, without saying a word, and weeping silently scared Boss Zheng and Zeng Junhui. "Well, what's the matter, why are you still crying?" "That's right, Xiuran, if you have any difficulties, just tell me, don't hold back, don't cry, brother will definitely help."

Ji Xiuran didn't respond to their words at all, Shi Jingchen quickly took out a cloth towel and wiped his tears, but Ji Xiuran's tears after he was drunk couldn't be wiped away no matter how hard he wiped, looking at Ji Xiuran's red eyes, Shi Jingchen sighed in his heart, although he knew it was because Only when he was drunk would he cry non-stop, but seeing Xiuran like this, his heart still hurts inexplicably as if being grabbed.Take him into your arms and let him be more comfortable on his own.

Seeing the two people next to him crying because of Ji Xiuran, Shi Jingchen had no choice but to say: "Xiu Ran is fine, but he is just drunk, let someone bring some hangover soup."

After Zeng Junhui heard it, he said oh oh twice, and hurriedly asked someone to serve the hangover soup.After watching Zeng Junhui arrange things, Shi Jingchen continued: "You guys continue."

At this time, after Boss Zheng confirmed that Ji Xiuran was fine, he couldn't help but feel amused and said: "I've seen people who go crazy with alcohol, but I've never seen someone who goes crazy with alcohol. It turns out that there are people who like to cry when they're drunk. Today, I, a rough old man, have learned a lot. ,Ha ha……"

Hearing Boss Zheng's words, Zeng Junhui also found it a little funny, and said: "Haha, yes, when Xiuran wakes up, I'm going to make fun of him. It's so fun." Shi Jingchen looked at him sharply when he heard Zeng Junhui's words glance.Zeng Junhui choked at the look, smiled embarrassingly, and didn't dare to say anything else, picked up the wine glass and drank with Boss Zheng.

After Xiao Er brought the hangover soup, Ji Xiuran took the hangover soup for a while before calming down, leaning on Shi Jingchen's chest, drowsy.Shi Jingchen saw him sluggish, and bid farewell to Zeng Junhui and the others. Zeng Junhui and Boss Zheng felt that they had drunk enough alcohol this time, so they went out together, and walked to the door together. After watching the two of them get into the carriage, Boss Zheng also And Zeng Junhui bid farewell.

A few people didn't pay attention, in an open window of a private room on the second floor of the Zhuangyuan Building opposite, a young man wearing a jade crown and a blue-patterned robe saw Ji Xiuran and his hands paused. The dignified man wearing a purple gold crown and an intertwined golden brocade robe sitting across from him saw that something was wrong with him and said, "Zizhan, what's wrong."

"Go back to the prince, Zizhan is fine, he just saw someone he knows."

"Oh? Who is it?"

"The person who gave the blueprint to the lower official before did not expect to see it in the capital."

"Oh? The scholar Zizhan mentioned? I think he came to Beijing to catch the exam." The man in brocade clothes played with the wine glass in his hand, looked at the students who were arguing in the hall downstairs, and casually guessed. "If that's the case, it seems that this person has some talent."

Hearing what the man in brocade clothes said, Zizhan nodded in agreement, not to mention being able to design such a wonderful blueprint, but just saying that in just three years, he was a person with extraordinary talents and knowledge.

"This kind of talented person can make friends with him." The man in brocade clothes said a little loosely.Zi Zhan nodded and replied, "I understand." Although this man's tone was casual, he knew that the prince was interested in this Ji Juren.

Among the many students in the downstairs hall, there was also a man in white with an impressive temperament who just happened to see Ji Xiuran getting into the car.The man in white who was watched by the student next to him looked out, the expression on his face changed, and he asked aloud, "Brother Li, what did you see?"

Brother Li picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip, his face regained his composure, and he said, "It's all right."

The prince among the two people upstairs happened to see this Young Master Li, and said to the man in Tsing Yi, "This Young Master Li is not bad."

Zizhan glanced downstairs, nodded, and said, "The Li family in Ju County, Xie Yuan from Luzhou." The prince nodded, took a sip from the wine glass, and said nothing else.

After returning home, Ji Xiuran woke up the next day, holding his forehead, thinking of his embarrassment yesterday, he really wanted to die.Shi Jingchen, who came in with honey water, happened to see his annoyed look, and his eyes were full of smiles.

Ji Xiuran looked at Shi Jingchen angrily and said, "Third brother, you are laughing at me, it's too much."

Shi Jingchen handed him the honey water, quickly flattened the corners of his mouth, and said, "I'm not smiling."

Ji Xiuran rolled his eyes and stopped fussing with him, but after drinking the water, he took Shi Jingchen's hand and put it on his head, saying, "Third brother, I have a headache, help me pinch it."

Shi Jingchen worked hard to give him a massage, Ji Xiuran enjoyed Shi Jingchen's service, felt much better, and said, "Today we are going to Jixian Academy outside the city, third brother, you can prepare later." After thinking for a while, he said: "Should we hire someone?"

Shi Jingchen shook his head and said, "You don't need to hire someone, I can do it."

"But I don't want you to work so hard."

"It's not hard."

"OK then."

If it wasn't for Shi Jingchen not wanting to be burdened by trivial matters every day, he would not have thought of hiring someone. Since he disagreed, Ji Xiuran no longer insisted.

Chapter 70

The two drove a carriage to the Jixian Academy in the outskirts. It was now late November, and the outskirts were yellow and desolate. When Ji Xiuran arrived at the academy, they handed over invitations and were invited to the gentleman's lounge in the backyard.This time they came to Jixian Academy to meet Mr. Xi's son Xi Kang. When Ji Xiuran came, Mr. Ji gave him a letter, asking him to find someone at Jixian Academy after he arrived in Beijing.

They took time to come here once before, that time Senior Brother Xi was not in the academy on vacation, and he heard that he was only coming back today, so Ji Xiuran rushed over today.Today I met the person smoothly, but after seeing the person, Ji Xiuran felt a little lost, he could clearly feel the indifference of this Senior Brother Xi to him and the indifference when he accepted Mr. Xi's letter.He was very disappointed with this result, so he didn't take out the recommendation letter prepared by his husband, and he didn't ask Senior Brother Xi to introduce him to a famous scholar in the academy.

In fact, ever since he heard about Mr. Xi's experience, he has been quite critical of this senior brother. Even if his parents left him when he was young and went away, wouldn't it be understandable? I haven't seen my parents, no matter how much resentment I have, after so many years, after I grow up and understand that my parents' good intentions should be eliminated, but after meeting people today, he is sure, this Brother Xi is not just resentful, the most important thing is indifference and indifference, that's why he hasn't visited his parents for so many years, and he doesn't care about his parents' letters.

After coming out of Jixian Academy, Ji Xiuran's face became ugly, Shi Jingchen took him into his arms and comforted him.Ji Xiuran put his head on his shoulder and said sullenly: "Third brother, is it so hard to forgive parents who have to abandon their children and abandon their children for the sake of their children?" The 11-year-old son was sent to his brother-in-law's house so that the son could be preserved and he could successfully study for the imperial examination, but now Senior Brother Xi's attitude towards the husband and wife made Ji Xiuran feel very uncomfortable.

"Looking at the individual, maybe this is unforgivable in his opinion." Shi Jingchen still has a say in such matters, and he is also the one who has to be abandoned by his parents, but he understands that his parents
