There are few idle people in the countryside in April, so they are planting sericulture and planting crops.

Green Willow Village has entered the busy farming season, and Pei Yue has also ushered in the most leisurely period since time travel.

There is no intrigue or intrigue, and his daily life routine is simple. After getting up in the morning, he does two sets of radio gymnastics in the front courtyard, has breakfast with Mr. Xi and Taohua, and then reads at home in the morning. There are various types of books.

He asked Deng Zai and Wang Yong to drive donkey carts to the capital to bring them back. He did not read carefully like Pei Yun, but outlined the main points, focusing on historical books. As for the poems and songs in the classics and meanings, he just translated them casually.

Translate without asking for a clear explanation.

After lunch, I took a nap and then wandered around the village in the afternoon, chatting with the farmers who had free time, asking them some simple questions, such as the family situation, the harvest of the fields, and even the marriage of their children, etc.

In the evening, if it doesn't rain, he will jog several times on the straight road outside the village.

At the beginning, all the bankers were very curious, especially the eldest daughter-in-law and the little girls, who couldn't help but secretly glance at the figure of the third young master. After ten days of this, everyone was not surprised, but occasionally wondered in their hearts.

, the young master said that he was exercising his body. If he really wanted to practice carrying farm tools in the fields, wouldn't it be enough?

After dinner, Pei Yue habitually went to the study to write and draw alone. Mr. Xi went back to his room to rest, while Taohua was doing needlework and chatting with Aunt Qi in the small hall in the backyard.

This Aunt Qi is good at cooking. She was an honest person that Pei Yue asked the old man Deng Shi to help pick out. At the same time, she also recruited an old man named Zhou Da. Zhou Da lives in the concierge next to the gate, and usually

Help stop the enthusiastic dealers, otherwise everyone will go in, always carrying bacon and vegetables in their hands. Pei Yue and Taohua really can't cope with it. As for Mr. Xi, he definitely has no interest in paying attention to this kind of thing.

Aunt Qi is mainly responsible for three meals a day at home, and Taohua is a little dissatisfied with this, because the kitchen is her territory, but Pei Yue looks at her body that is even thinner than his own, and he really can't bear to continue to torture this fourteen-year-old girl

The little girl. In addition to cooking, Aunt Qi also helps Taohua clean up the house. The old and the young get along very harmoniously.

I don't know how many farmers are envious of Aunt Qi and Zhou Da being able to work in the young master's house.

Let us also say that after the young man Deng Zai was selected by Pei Yue, he went out without saying a word early the next morning, which made Deng Shi worried, fearing that his grandson would really not come back. Fortunately, in the evening, he returned to the village safely.

It's just that his usually dull expression finally had a hint of fear.

He completed Pei Yue's instructions, handed the letter to the middle-aged official in the blue-gray building, and went to the Taiping Bank to exchange the silver notes for silver ingots.

Pei Yue did not break his promise and took out Deng Zai's body deed on the spot, but Deng Zai did not take it.

The young man said that after his uncle Deng Zhong died in battle, he originally had no children. Later, Deng Shi adopted his younger brother into Deng Zhong's name and inherited the incense. Deng Zai wanted to give this place to his younger brother who was adopted into his uncle's name. Pei

Yue Yue naturally would not object, and at the same time he valued this dark-faced sixteen-year-old boy more and more.

In the past ten days, he would ask Deng Zai to handle all matters, no matter how big or small. At most, he would call Wang Yong. Of course, he would be rewarded after the work was completed.

Although the money was exciting, what the bankers really cared about was the number of people who could get out of slavery. Seeing Deng Zai earn a pure bloodline for the old Deng family, old man Deng Shi almost burst out laughing with his old face.

People praise the young master's kindness, but how can others hold back? It's just that because of Pei Yue's words, the family will no longer hire servants for the time being, and the older and honest bankers can't do anything to squeeze in and flatter Pei Yue, so they

He sent the young man from his family, who was fifteen or sixteen years old, over and saw Tian'er waiting outside the main house, hoping that Pei Yue would give him a chance.

Pei Yue didn't have any good solution for this. He said that these young people refused to leave after seeing them several times, so he simply selected six young people with strong physiques and loyal temperaments to join Deng Zai and Wang Yong. They were not allowed to have any identities and only allowed

They go home to work, and if anything happens, let them take care of it.

In the afternoon that day, Pei Yue was planning to go out for a walk as usual, but he saw Mr. Xi standing in the atrium, looking at him strangely.

"Sir, what's the matter?" Pei Yue stepped forward and asked.

Mr. Xi said slowly: "Brother Yue, when do you plan to come to me to learn something?"

Pei Yue asked doubtfully: "Sir, do you want to go out for business?"

Mr. Xi shook his head, looked at him and said, "Nothing."

He was a little confused now, whether the young man was deliberately trying to hang himself up, or whether he really didn't understand anything. It had been more than ten days since he arrived at Green Willow Manor. At first, Pei Yue was as fast as lightning to deal with Cheng Guang, and with a far superior

The maturity of age appeases the banker, and then the young man enters a very comfortable life. Every morning he gets up and writhes around in the yard, and in the afternoon he either takes a nap or goes out for a stroll, vividly interpreting the story of a man who is rich and contented.

looks like a small landowner.

But you are only thirteen years old, how can you sleep?

Mr. Xi never thought of putting on airs. In fact, after agreeing to Taijun Pei, he decided to teach Pei Yue some skills, so his attitude was gentle from beginning to end. However, Pei Yue disappointed him because he only planned to stay here for three years.

Year.

Three years seems to be a long time, but in fact it is a very short time for study.

Something was wrong from Mr. Xi's face. After thinking about it again, Pei Yue understood the crux of the problem, so he smiled and said, "Sir, let's go sit in the hall and talk."

Back in the main hall, Pei Yue first poured a cup of tea for Mr. Xi. After sitting down, he said sincerely: "Sir, you have misunderstood me. It is not because I am ignorant and arrogant, but I leave a great talent like Mr. Xi aside. In fact, my situation is somewhat special.

Sir, you should be able to tell that I haven't read many books before. I have been practicing calligraphy and studying recently. I want to lay a good foundation as soon as possible, so that it will be easier for me to teach. You are not a teacher of elementary school, so you can't start teaching me from literacy.

"

Mr. Xi was slightly startled, as if it was difficult to understand, and asked: "Do you think I want to teach you to read and write?"

Pei Yue smiled slyly and said: "I don't plan to learn these things. After all, I don't want to take the imperial examination."

This is the truth, he still has this bit of self-knowledge.

These days, he has figured out the difficulty of the imperial examination. There are countless scholars in Daliang, two capitals, one prefecture and thirteen states. The thousands of people who can participate in the examination every three years are at least selected from hundreds of thousands of scholars. Moreover,

Only the 300 people who finally pass the examination are qualified to be officials.

It is so difficult to become an excellent scholar. Take Pei Yun, the second eldest child in the capital, for example. He started studying at the age of six and studied hard for at least five hours a day, persisting day after day. Although Pei Yun never thought about taking the imperial examination.

, but even with his talent and talent, it is now extremely difficult to qualify for the national examination.

Pei Yue is good at business, good at observing people's hearts, and quite wise in dealing with things. This does not mean that he is good at reading, especially when faced with those difficult and difficult scriptures. He has never considered this path.

Seeing that his words were sincere, Mr. Xi's face softened and he asked, "Then you can make it clear to me."

Pei Yue smiled and said: "Sir, my health is too bad. I can't stand the intense training now. I can only do it step by step. This is why I didn't go to see you sir."

Mr. Xi looked at him. Although Pei Yue's face was rosier after living a comfortable life these days, his body was still thin and he would not be able to practice martial arts in a short time.

But he relaxed his brows and said calmly: "Since you want to strengthen your body and get rid of this sick body as soon as possible, you should come to me earlier."
