After seeing off Ji Wei, Liu Yimian stood at the gate of the academy for a long time.The sun was very hot in the afternoon, making his cheeks red, but his heart was still empty, and he always felt unable to cheer up.But as long as he thinks of Ji Wei's original intention of sending him to the county to study, Liu Yimian understands that he can't let Ji Wei down, and must work hard to be strong.

Liu Yimian turned around and walked towards the school building, but he didn't expect that the person he least wanted to see here was sitting at the stone table.

Liu Chengyin has been waiting here for a long time. In order to wait for Ji Wei to leave and to intercept Liu Yimian here, he purposely lingered in the bamboo forest behind the school building for a long time.When he saw Lu Yushu coming back, he came out from behind, wanting to take advantage of this rare opportunity to get close to Lu Yushu.

But it never occurred to him that Lu Yushu, who was considered polite not long ago, would not even look at him when he saw him again.Although he said he had something to do, looking at his facial expressions and his book boy's contemptuous eyes, Liu Chengyin concluded that it was Liu Yimian, that bitch, who said something to Lu Yushu.

Even if it wasn't him this time, it must be what he said to Ji Wei, and what Ji Wei said to Lu Yushu.In short, in the final analysis, he was still chewing his tongue.

Liu Chengyin didn't expect that Liu Yimian would cut off his way not long after he came to this county school, and before he could get close to Lu Yushu in the future.He was very angry and hated Liu Yimian in his heart, but when he saw him, he still wanted to greet him with a smile on his face.It would be extremely difficult to change one person.

But Liu Chengyin was different.

Since he was young, he has been entangled with You Guizhi.If he hadn't been smart and smart early enough to win You Guizhi's favor, and convinced her that he had the hope of passing the exam, and because You Guizhi had no profit and could not afford to come early, how could he have allowed him to study hard at home leisurely?I'm afraid that he would be kicked out of the house early and let him go to work as an accountant.

Liu Chengyin's ambition is so great that even a scholar can't satisfy him, he wants to pass the examination, he wants to be an official, he wants You Guizhi and all those who look down on him to kneel at his feet and bow their heads as ministers!

For this reason, it is not difficult to be small.

Except that he had attended a private school from the age of eight to 12, he had never invited a teacher, let alone a county school.Almost all of them were shut up at home and studied hard, and only then did they have today.

In order to be able to go to county school, he has lived frugally for many years.If it wasn't for the family selling Liu Yimian and giving him a sum of money, and his younger sister Liu Piaoxu being married off and giving him a lot of dowry, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to save Shu Xiu who is studying in this county school.

Therefore, he is good at rote memorization, but when it comes to policy theory and other subjects that test the overall situation, comprehension and insight, it is absolutely inferior to Chen Peizhi and others who grew up in the academy.

To study in the county school, apart from being able to get guidance from famous teachers, the most important thing is that the children of high-ranking officials and nobles also study here.

If he can make good friends with a few of them, it will be of great benefit to his future.

As for Chen Peizhi, although he is smart, he has no scheming, he is very ambitious and easy to deal with. It was Liu Chengyin who chose the first target in the shortest time.Although he is not a son of a high-ranking official, his family background is fairly well-off, and he has quite a family business in Daxi Town.If he can gain his attention, there may be a way out if his savings are exhausted in the future.

As for Lu Yushu, his behavior as a young gentleman is hard to get close to.The acquaintance with Ji Wei and Liu Yimian now is just to let her see it more clearly in advance.

Liu Chengyin's thoughts changed, and he stood up to meet Liu Yimian, holding a small bag in his hand, "Xiaoyi, you are finally back, I have been waiting for you here for a long time."

Liu Yimian pursed her lips, closed her eyes and lowered her head, not looking at Liu Chengyin, and hurried to pass by him.

Liu Chengyin grabbed his wrist quickly and said sadly: "Xiaoyi, you are so heartless, I am your elder brother. Could it be that you forgot that when I was a child, I took you to the street to watch lanterns. Daddy punished you to face the wall in the firewood house or should I secretly take steamed buns?" Food for you? Now that your wings are stiff, you don’t recognize me as a big brother? Thanks to me, I still think about you, so I specially left steamed buns for you in case you didn’t have lunch!”

Liu Chengyin glared at Liu Yimian angrily, and threw the steamed bun into his arms.

Two big snow-white steamed buns rolled around in Liu Yimian's arms, one fell into his hand, and the other rolled to the ground before catching it in time.

Liu Chengyin looked at the steamed buns covered with dirt, his heart skipped a beat, and he looked away: "It doesn't matter if you eat it or not, if you give it to you, you will give it to me. Since you don't want to see me, then I'll leave, so as not to be old I hate people in front of you!"

When he walked five steps away, he heard someone calling him behind him.

A smile appeared on the corner of Liu Chengyin's mouth, but he didn't turn around for a long time.

"Don't you want to see me? What are you calling me for?"

"Brother, follow me." Liu Yimian stared at the steamed bun on the ground, picked it up from the ground, walked slowly in front of Liu Chengyin, and led him to the green bamboo house.

Lin Tai, who was next door to him, crossed his arms on his chest, leaned his back on the door frame, and just looked at the two brothers of the Liu family.

The house is a bit stuffy in summer, Lin Tai always likes to open the doors and windows wide to let the cool breeze blow into the house.Therefore, Liu Chengyin was discovered early on wandering in the bamboo forest and the yard in front of the school building.Hearing Liu Chengyin's voice again, he came out to check the situation.

When he saw Liu Yimian leading Liu Chengyin into the house, he was a little anxious for Liu Yimian.But after all, this is a matter between brothers, Liu Yimian didn't come to ask him, and Lin Tai couldn't intervene, so he could only walk out of the house, pretending to take a walk in the yard, and kept wandering in front of the green bamboo house, paying attention to the things inside. movement.

"Why did you ask me to come in?" Liu Yimian kept his back to Liu Chengyin, taking advantage of him not paying attention, he took a good look at the room.

The school building is only equipped with the most basic tables, chairs, cabinets and beds, but Ji Wei brought a lot of things from outside, from the four treasures of the study on the table, to the clothes and pants in the closet, all of which no longer reflect his care for Liu Yimian and his love for Liu Yimian. ...not bad money.

He knew that Liu Yimian was a person with soft ears and valued relatives and friends, if he was willing to show weakness and show favor, there was absolutely no reason not to agree.What's more, now that he has found a good family, what's rare is that Ji Wei is willing to find a way to send him to the county school for a brother like him this time.As long as Liu Yimian is willing to buy it for his big brother, then Ji Wei will never disagree!

The more Liu Chengyin thought about it, the hotter his heart became, he cleared his throat, and asked again: "What do you want to say?" He watched Liu Yimian open the cabinet, tiptoed to take down the things in the top shelf, and also A small cloth bag, brought by Ji Wei

"Brother, I know that the steamed buns you gave me are your lunch. I accidentally soiled the steamed buns, and you didn't have anything to eat. There are still some pastries here, and I will compensate you." Liu Yimian picked two pieces from the inside One moon cake, one donut and one croissant each, wrapped in Liu Chengyin's food cloth and handed to him.

Liu Chengyin took it, "Thank you Xiaoyi, you are still thinking about your old love—"

"Since I have returned the lunch to the eldest brother, please ask the eldest brother to leave the room, I am going to rest." Liu Yimian took two steps back, lowering his gaze, not looking at Liu Chengyin.

"—Yi?" Liu Chengyin looked like he had seen a ghost, "What did you say?"

"I'm going to rest, brother, please go out." Liu Chengyin took two steps forward, and Liu Yimian hurriedly backed away, "I have paid for your lunch with four pieces of cakes, and I don't owe you any more."

After all, Liu Yimian is soft-hearted, he firmly remembers what Ji Wei once taught, knowing that Liu Chengyin approached him for a purpose.But when Liu Chengyin stuffed the steamed buns to him and said that, he couldn't help but think of his childhood, it was hard to see him starving, so he wanted to share the cakes with him, and let him taste Brother Ji's goodness craft.

He thought simply, but how could Liu Chengyin give up?

What Liu Chengyin wanted was to share wealth, not just a simple lunch!

"Xiaoyi! I'm your big brother!"

"Brother, please respect yourself! Otherwise, I will call someone!"

Liu Chengyin pressed on step by step, and Liu Yimian retreated step by step until his back touched the wall. He shook his head, with some kind of pain and pleading in his eyes.But at this time there were only the two of them in the room, Liu Chengyin didn't care, so naturally he would not let go of this good opportunity to persuade him.

"Xiaoyi, you listen to me, I just hope that our two brothers will be well and return to the way we were before. I don't want you, why are you so guarded against me? Brother, I am so sad!" Liu Chengyin lowered his head and wiped his tears, Liu Yimian Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he bent over and got past him and ran towards the door.

"Big brother, big brother, I still call you big brother, you, don't force me!" Liu Yimian stood at the door, turned around, looked at Liu Chengyin with tears in her eyes.

This is his elder brother, the elder brother who loved him since childhood and taught him to read and write.Even if he has changed, Liu Yimian still misses his past goodness.But when he looked at Liu Chengyin in front of him, there was some kind of strong desire and urgency in his eyes.What is the difference between his current appearance and You Guizhi at that time?

Brother Ji is right, he is really right.

"Xiaoyi?" Liu Chengyin suddenly stood still and stopped moving forward.

He knew Liu Yimian so well, he knew that he was weak, but once such a weak person was pushed into a hurry and made a decision, it would be irreversible.He can't force him like this, he needs to give him some time to think about it.

Liu Chengyin felt that he had lost his head, and did such a stupid thing today.

He took two steps back, carefully trying to appease Liu Yimian, but at this time Liu Yimian was immersed in Ji Wei's original teaching, the blood in his heart gradually turned cold, and he completely calmed down.

"Brother Lin, can you help me?" Liu Yimian knew that Lin Tai was standing behind him, and kept paying attention to the movement here.

He was entrusted by Ji Ge and promised to take good care of him.

The only person who treats him best is Brother Ji.Even if he left, he was still taking care of him.Liu Yimian thought bitterly.

"No problem!" Lin Tai answered loudly, stepped up the stone steps in two or three steps, and walked around to Liu Yimian.He was still tossing a few stones that he picked up from the ground just now out of boredom, and with the corners of his mouth curled up, he looked up and down at Liu Chengyin disdainfully, "Oh, so you are Brother Liu's big brother, why is there such a difference in appearance? Big? He is as handsome as a bamboo, but you are so stupid as a pig, you can't even understand human words."

Lin Tai's eyes sharpened suddenly, and the stone in his hand slammed towards Liu Chengyin's shoulders, neck, arms and other exposed places.When one or two stones hit, Liu Chengyin screamed, jumped and pushed Lin Tai away and rushed out of the room.

"Lin Tai! Why are you a scholar! A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands! You are an insult to gentleness!" Liu Chengyin stood under the stone steps in a state of embarrassment, looking at Lin Tai indignantly.

I don't know how many people are around, waiting to see their excitement.

Liu Yimian is a brother, so he already attracted people's attention, but there was quite a commotion at this time, and many people poked their heads out of the room again, secretly paying attention to this place.

"Didn't I teach you to listen to people's words? How can you understand them now?" Lin Tai made a look of throwing stones, Liu Chengyin shrank his shoulders in fright, making Lin Tai laugh out loud, and raised his hands Show him your palm, "There is nothing, there is nothing at all, you are too timid, you can scare you with bare hands!"

"Xiaoyi, I'm your elder brother. Now that you are young, you naturally feel that loyal words are harsh, and you don't want to listen to me! You must know that elder brother is like a father, how could elder brother harm you!" Liu Chengyin snorted, flung his sleeves and ran away in a hurry.

"An elder brother is like a father?" Liu Yimian murmured.

"Are you okay? Don't worry about what he said..." Lin Tai was a little worried, afraid that this little brother would be stimulated, and if he got too frustrated, what would he do if he ran back to find Ji Wei.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yimian shook her head, and then smiled softly, "It's true that elder brother is like a father. My elder brother is very similar to him."

"You?" Lin Tai hesitated.

"Thank you, Brother Lin! If Brother Lin needs me in the future, I will do my best." Liu Yimian thought of Lu Yushu bowing before, and couldn't help but learn to do one too.But it seemed that the movements were jerky, but it made Lin Tai laugh out loud.

"Your movements are all wrong. It's like this, not like that. Ah, by the way, how old are you this year? I'm almost sixteen. You look a lot shorter than me. Are you fifteen?"

"Big Brother Lin, I'm also fifteen." Liu Yimian glanced at Lin Tai's height and bowed her head in shame.

Lin Tai was already a little shorter than his peers, but he was still more than an inch taller than Liu Yimian.

Lin Tai yelled, "Brother Liu, you are really tall. I heard that my brothers are all short, but you are about the same size as me! Sure enough, I am still too short!"

After Lin Tai shouted, he covered his face and ran back into the room, closing the door with a bang.

Liu Yimian was worried and wanted to run over, but was stopped by a student watching: "You don't need to worry about him, Lin Tai is like this, he's playing around with you, just get used to it."

Liu Yimian looked at Lin Tai's door, and then at the leaves rustling under the breeze. At this moment, he finally felt a sense of satisfaction, a long-lost peace and tranquility, as if returning to the past.
