Guo Huaichun often said that the Xue family was his savior. Without the Xue family, there would be no him. But no matter how grateful he was, he would not let his benefactor sit upright and stand up solemnly by himself.

It's not like facing a benefactor, but like facing a Shangguan.

Cui didn't say anything, and Guo Huaichun didn't say a word, as if he didn't dare to disturb her.

Cui thought for a moment and seemed to come back to his senses and pushed the teacup in his hand over.

"Here, you have tea." she said.

Guo Huaichun looked at the teacup but took a step back, with a little fear in his eyes. As a general, he was not afraid of fighting on the battlefield, but he showed such emotion to the teacup pushed by a woman...

"Master Ge." He smiled bitterly, "I still won't drink your tea."

A woman was called an adult, and I don’t know how many people were scared. Cui showed her usual weak expression.

"Don't call him an adult." She said, "I'm still an adult."

Guo Huaichun was silent for a moment and seemed to remember bad things, but soon he cheered up again and said, "I didn't find out about Lord Du when I went to Taizhou this time."

Cui shook his head and said, "Don't inquire... You don't need to do these things deliberately, it's not bad if you cause trouble."

Guo Huaichun responded and said, "I didn't ask for it deliberately."

Cui raised his hand and stroked his eyebrows, with a little sadness in his eyes.

Guo Huaichun hesitated and said, "Xue Qing has no need to go to school. Is this your arrangement for you, sir?"

Cui raised his head in surprise and said, "Didn't go to school?"

Guo Huaichun looked even more surprised, "You don't even know?"

Cui shook her head and said, "I don't know. She goes to school every day and reads and writes when she comes back, and she is very serious."

Guo Huaichun talked about what Guo Zi'an said, took a few breaths and rubbed his hands, and said, "What's going on? According to your instructions, I don't dare to ask too much. Is this she lied to others, or is anyone of you having other arrangements?"

Hearing this, Cui hesitated for a moment, reached out and pressed his forehead, and said, "Mr. Du's arrangement was to join the army from here, but later they disagreed. She also happened to say that she wanted to study, which was exactly what they arranged. As for how to follow Mr. Qingxia without being suspected, I don't know... I just gave you a famous post for you to go."

Speaking of this, he pressed his forehead again and sighed lightly.

"Mr. Du has been there for several years. I am really scared by a weak woman."

Guo Huaichun looked at the woman's weak look and was about to cry the next moment, without any pity, but her expression became more complicated and her feet moved out.

Cui stood up and said, "I know about this, I'll ask you..." She pondered for a moment, and seemed to have a headache, "You just react as you should..."

Guo Huaichun blinked, thinking about what to do as a person who uses this young man to seek good reputation.

"I won't move for the time being today, after all, I won't believe the children easily... I'll go and inquire and move again, it's reasonable." He said, "I'll wait for your news and arrangements tomorrow."

In other words, one night, Cui nodded, walked out, stood by the door, turned around and saluted.

"...Thank you, Master, you are so caring for us." She said, grateful and choked.

The servants standing at the gate of the yard came in.

"Sister-in-law, stop saying such things." Guo Huaichun said in his voice, "Just treat this place like your own home, just ask Manager Wu for some trivial matters."

Xue's mother Cui bowed again, and then left with a treacherous thank you again. The servants curled their lips and said intently that if they were really nervous, they should leave here. This woman is actually a tricky woman.

When Cui walked into the door, he saw Xue Qing sitting under the tree in the yard reading a book, holding a branch in his hand and constantly writing and painting on the ground...

Xue Qing raised his head: "Mom, you are back."

Cui nodded with a smile, rolled up her sleeves, "You're hungry, I'll cook now."

Nuannuan ran out of the kitchen: "Auntie, I have heated the rice dumplings and cut the vegetables."

Nuannuan is young and has never learned to cook. Cui always cooks by herself. Nuannuan can only help. Cui praised her and went into the kitchen.

Xue Qing said: "Mom, what have you done to the master?"

Cui poked his head out of the kitchen, smiled at her, closed his mouth and said, "...The new desk will be delivered tomorrow... There is also a large antique shelf."

Xue Qing smiled and shook her head, saying, "Mom, my house is not that big."

Cui said with a oh, frowned and said, "...I should change my residence..."

Xue Qing waved her hand with a smile, and Cui smiled too. She was happy to live here. She didn't have to worry about food, drink and use. She didn't have to look at the face of the Guo family, and she wouldn't cause trouble.

The yard was quiet again, saying that quiet was not quiet either. Nuannuan ran around, and the kitchen was jingling, but Xue Qing was reading the book without any interference.

...........

The Dragon Boat Festival Dragon Boat Race of Weishui River has also ended, and the fun on both sides is still continuing, but Lord Li, the Lord of the Mansion, is going back to his house... First, let's take a rest, second, there are still many things to be busy with.

The prefect traveled in a complicated way, and with some men accompanying him, there were long queues on the road, and the carriages were driving fast and steadily. When approaching Liudaoquan Mountain, the guards next to the carriage suddenly heard the prefect say a stop.

When the carriage stopped, the people in front and behind also stopped immediately. People were a little confused. Then they saw the magistrate get off the car, walked in one direction, and raised their hands.

"Mr. Qingxia." He whispered.

Mr. Qingxia? Everyone hurriedly looked at it, and sure enough, there was a man walking slowly on the path not far away with a child, all of whom were in green clothes, and they would not notice it at first glance against the lush green mountains in front of them.

The man stopped and turned around when he heard the shout, lifted up the bamboo hat and showed his thin face. It was Mr. Qingxia.

Everyone also got off the horse and got out of the car. Prefect Li had already rushed to Mr. Qingxia, and Mr. Qingxia saluted him.

"Sir, too, are you going to see the dragon boat?" Master Li said with a smile.

Mr. Qingxia shook her head and said, "I haven't gone fishing."

The little boy carried the fishing rod and raised the bamboo basket in his arms, and said proudly, "There are so many fish."

The prefect Li smiled, and everyone laughed, praising Mr. Qingxia for being elegant. Mr. Qingxia did not respond indifferently. Everyone knew his temper... it was sour and hard.

Master Li said: "Mr. Professor's students are indeed diligent."

Everyone was also busy admiring the good poems that many people wrote today, especially those who studied the Liudao Quanshan Society as the best. Mr. Qingxia was not afraid or humble and nodded to accept it.

It is difficult to continue chatting like this. Master Li smiled and said, "Teaching... Mr. is doing a good job."

His voice was very low, and the people around the first three words did not pay attention for a moment until the next sentence was raised.

Yes, it was done well and taught well. Everyone was amazed again.

Mr. Qingxia seemed to be a little impatient. Although Prefect Li was kicked out of Beijing because he offended someone, he didn't understand his expression. He immediately smiled and said goodbye.

Mr. Qingxia bowed to him and turned away.

"Since Mr. Qingxia resigned, she has said she is dedicated to teaching and not socializing."

"... I never deal with us here, nor have I met the governor a few times?"

Everyone said with a smile.

Master Li smiled, stretched out three fingers and said, "Three times, when I first came back, when I was a new club school, I went to the club school to inspect it."

Everyone laughed and surrounded Magistrate Li and continued on the road. Someone looked back by chance and saw that Mr. Qingxia seemed to have stopped on the road.

The little boy almost ran into him and looked up and asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"

Mr. Qingxia smiled and said, "The magistrate has just praised it."

The little boy was surprised to see the depression that had been entrenched between his eyebrows for a long time. Could it be that the gentleman is also a person who likes to be praised? Why is he so happy?

.........

After a day of noise, the entire Chang'an City fell into a deep sleep with fatigue, and even the lanterns on the street became a little dim.

The Guo family slum was even darker, and Xia Chong stopped murmuring. Xue Qing, who had fallen asleep after studying and practicing, suddenly opened his eyes on the bed.

Who is outside?

She didn't move, and the sound of tiny footsteps in the dark night rang out in the yard.

Xue Qing sat up and walked to the door silently with a few steps. Through the crack in the door, he saw a figure swaying in the night and walking out.

Although the night was as bright as ink, she recognized the shaking figure at a glance.
