school days in ancient times

Ever since Ye Mian was punished by his brother, he kept a low profile in Guozixue. He didn't recruit cats or tease dogs. Whenever he had free time, he would start copying Mencius wherever he was.

In Zangshu Pavilion and Fengting Pavilion, even when he was kicked out by Mr. to stand on the porch, he squatted on the ground with paper and pen to write. The instructors of Xingsi Pavilion took the initiative to visit Ye Mian because he hadn't reported it for a few days.

After lunch that day, Ye Mian spread paper and copied books alone in a water pavilion. This wind pavilion is high and surrounded by water on three sides, not only has a good view, but also is quiet and undisturbed.

These days when he copied books, he was always teased by those bastards. At first he would laugh at himself or scold him, but then he became impatient and just took a pen and paper to find a clean place.

After copying two more pages, Ye Mian straightened up and shook his sore neck, only to see a person walking up the rocky road, Ye Mian couldn't help raising his eyebrows, now who in the school doesn't know who will be there after dinner every day This spring cupping pavilion is copying books, everyone walks around here very obediently, but what is this person going to do?

Fortunately, Ye Mian stopped writing and waited for him to come up. After the man entered the pavilion, Ye Mian took a closer look and recognized it. It was the student he rescued from the lake that day. He must have come to thank him. Ye Mian thought.

Sure enough, when the man entered the pavilion, he bowed deeply to Ye Mian, and Ye Mian turned slightly to let him pass.

"Thanks to Fourth Young Master Ye's rescue that day, Qi Yu is extremely grateful."

Ye Mian didn't take credit for it, "You don't need to thank me, I was almost dragged to the bottom by you that day, if you want to thank, go to King Rongnan Jun, the two who dragged us up are his private guards."

After hearing this, Qi Yu blushed with a very handsome face, but he didn't say anything for a long time.

"Hey, look at me," Ye Mian slapped his head, "It's hard for you to thank him in person, okay, I already thanked him a few days ago, if you thank me, I will take it as a full gift, and I will thank him in the future." Don't worry about it."

Qi Yu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said: "I just caused trouble to Fourth Young Master Ye, Qi Yu came here not only to thank you, but also to make amends." After speaking, he looked at the manuscript spread on the stone table.

Ye Mian was startled, not knowing what he meant.

"I don't know..." Qi Yu tentatively asked in a low voice: "Does Fourth Master Ye need my help?"

Ye Mian reacted for a while before realizing that this was to help him cheat, and waved his hand: "If I can copy for you, why should I hide here every day?"

Qi Yu looked around and took a step forward, said in a very low voice: "Others can't, but I can. Qi Yu has been good at imitating human handwriting since he was a child, but no one in school knows about it."

Ye Mian turned his head to look at him abruptly, and Qi Yu showed his sincerity by seeing that Ye Mian's eyes did not avert.

Ye Mian swallowed, as if moved, Qi Yu walked to the stone table, picked up Ye Mian's two pages of manuscript and read it carefully for a while, then made a few gestures with the index finger of his right hand in the air. Then he picked up a pen and wrote a line on the paper.

Ye Mian stared dumbfounded at the handwriting on the two pieces of paper. He wasn't surprised that this person could write imitation books, but he was surprised that someone could imitate his worm-like characters so deeply.

talent...

"How many days will you be able to finish copying?" Ye Mian asked the man affectionately.

Qi Yu blushed slightly, thought for a while and said, "Ten days."

"what?"

"Then... seven days?" Qi Yu pursed his lips.

Brother worked too hard, Ye Mian patted Xie Yuheng's shoulder with a smile, "Yes, but it's not necessary, just ten days!"

"But my brother asked me to improve my calligraphy before and after." Ye Mian frowned and said, "How can I write this?"

Unexpectedly, Qi Yu didn't feel embarrassed, bowed his head and said: "It's okay, it's just a matter of spending some time, the fourth young master just leave it to me, if you don't worry, I will hand over the copy of the previous day to you every two days, four The son just checks."

Ten days later, Ye Mian received Qi Yu's transcript at the Chunshang Pavilion, carefully flipped through from the first to the last, and took out his own copy for comparison twice.

Not only is it lifelike, it is exactly the same, Ye Mian praised in his heart, and this Qi Yu is really careful, even he is used to re-dipping the ink every seven characters, distinguishing the horizontal and vertical severity and putting it on the paper.Not to mention his brother, I'm afraid that this imitation character can only be distinguished by a computer if it is taken to the professional appraisal center in his previous life.

Ye Mian joyfully hid the manuscript in his skirt and ran out of the pavilion. Qi Yu stood in the wind pavilion, biting his lip and waited until Ye Mian's figure disappeared into the corridor before looking away. He took out a gold-plated Carefully stroked the spherical hand stove twice.

It's just that the imitation was not handed over in the end. These days, the two brothers are no longer as close as they were before. Ye Jing lost his temper with him for the first time and punished him so embarrassingly. Although Ye Mian would not hold grudges, but After all, I have some grievances in my heart, seeing Ye Jing is always awkward, I don't know what to say, and Ye Jing treats Ye Mian even more indifferently, and will not take him to live in Bihua Pavilion as usual after a ten-day vacation He didn't even look at him when he met him when he went to the main courtyard to greet the Qiu family. Ye Shilang groaned twice when he saw him.

After returning to the mansion after school, I sent the little maid to Bihua Pavilion to find out what the young master was doing several times, to see how he was feeling.Every time he got a reply, Ye Mian walked around on the ground holding the imitation characters, until Baoxue's eyes were dazzled, and he didn't take a step out of Baofengyuan.

Lying on the bed at night, Ye Mian sighed heavily in the tent, that's all, since he accepted the punishment, he copied it himself, if he resisted Ye Shilang, he would not accept the punishment, why did he suffer so much for so many days, what? If he was fined with words and money, he had already left his pick and hid in the prime minister's mansion, and if he was caught back, he would just be beaten up.

In this way, Ye Mian copied this fine essay to the Dragon Boat Festival. On the Dragon Boat Festival day, Guozixue only had half-day classes before noon, and could take a rest in the afternoon.

Because it was a festival, Ye Mian went to Qiu's place to say hello before going to school, there were people standing all over the ground and yard, and all the aunts and younger brothers and sisters were there.

Seeing Ye Mian coming, the aunts quickly pushed the children to greet Ye Mian, Ye Mian nodded and smiled in return.

Qiu pulled him over with a smile on his face, touched his clothes carefully, peeled a candied rice dumpling for him, put it on a blue and white landscape porcelain plate covered with crushed sugar, and stared at him to eat. Only then did he smile and send him off to school.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yiniang, who is the least talkative on weekdays, opened her mouth to stop her. Qiu Shi turned her head and glanced at her. Liu Yiniang led the third girl forward, and the third girl came to Ye Mian with an autumn-colored purse in her hand. , raised his head and said: "Fourth brother, this is the Dragon Boat Festival purse I made for you."

Ye Mian was slightly surprised, since he came here he has not been very close to his concubine brothers and concubine sisters, it was not intentional, but he went to Guozi school not long after he came here, and there are few chances to meet each other on weekdays, they met He was mostly reserved, so Ye Mian just nodded when he saw him.

Liu Yiniang hurriedly smiled and explained softly: "Sister Yun is stupid, and she can't make a female celebrity well. The only thing inside is the fenugreek and qincao, which are used to ward off plague and evil, and they can be put into the book bag."

Ye Mian looked at the purse held in the hands of the eight-year-old girl. The stitches were indeed a bit frizzy, but it seemed that it was not made by a maid, so Ye Mian quickly took it and tied it on the belt with her own hands.

Sister Yun pursed her lips and smiled, two little pear dimples just like Ye Mian appeared at the corners of her mouth, Ye Mian couldn't help touching her heart, and then untied the pine green jade ring tied on her belt and handed it to her. give her.

"Thank you, third sister, the purse is very nice, I like it very much."

Ye Yun's ears turned red, and she glanced at Aunt Liu, and the Qiu family over there smiled and said, "Sister Yun, hurry up, the things from your fourth brother's place are not very good."

Sixth Yiniang breathed a sigh of relief, gave Third Miss a push, and also gave Ye Mian a little hug, "It's a good thing to spare Fourth Young Master."

Ye Mian looked at Ye Yun and said with a smile: "Do you know about my ten-day vacation? How about letting your nanny bring you and your sixth brother to Baofengyuan to play with me?"

Ye Yun's sixth elder brother is also the child of Aunt Liu, and they are twins with Ye Yun. Aunt Liu hurriedly dragged the sixth young master Ye Feng over. But is there any more, I want to give it away."

Over there, Mrs. Qiu didn't answer, but Aunt Liu quickly nodded her head, "Yes, yes, if Fourth Young Master doesn't mind, I've still made a lot of them. I sewed them myself, so I can see them."

Si Yiniang also stood up and said with a smile: "I had nothing to do some time ago and I also made a needle basket, so I'll let someone get it for Fourth Young Master."

Qiu Shi took a sip of tea: "Your Sixth Aunt's female celebrity is the best, and it's better to give it away than others."

Ye Mian picked out a few good-colored purses and took them to the Qinan Courtyard.

Before the class bell rang, everyone in the school room of Qinan College hadn't arrived yet. Ye Mian knelt down and tied a dark purple purse for Lu Lizheng himself. Lu Lizheng couldn't close his mouth with joy. They curled their lips one after another, teasing Ye Mian for being eccentric.

Unexpectedly, Ye Mian took out a few more from the book bag for them to choose, and the young masters of Qinanyuan cheered one after another, and each chose a favorite to wear on their bodies.

In the end, there was only one left in Ye Mian's hand, Lu Lizheng tugged at Ye Mian's sleeve, and then winked at Rongnan County King who was sitting behind him.

In fact, Ye Mian saw Zhuang Jue as soon as he entered the room, and this person cannot be ignored, but now Ye Mian is bored when he sees him, so he didn't even do the ceremony, just pretending that he didn't look at him. He would make trouble for him, but he didn't think that this person acted as if he didn't know him at all. He didn't lift his eyelids to him, and just sat there quietly reading a book.

Lu Lizheng blinked vigorously at Ye Mian, and then gestured to wipe his neck.

Ye Mian curled her lips, threw the last purse back into her book bag, and hummed, "Even if it's not precious, it shouldn't be ruined by others at will. If someone cuts it off again, who should I ask for reasoning?"
