The little fat man who escaped from the gate of Jingshan Academy suddenly realized something and hurriedly stopped.
Hesitantly, as if he had made some decision, he started to run back.
When I was approaching the gate of the academy, I turned to another road. It happened that this road was exactly the same as Ling Yun's.
The little fat man walked, but he didn't notice Ling Yun's figure. In the end, he could only stop halfway, turned around and walked back dejectedly.
It is said that since Ling Yun entered the academy, he rushed directly to Xu Linfu's residence.
He didn't stop until he reached Xu Linfu's door, raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.
"Who?"
A woman's voice came out slowly. Ling Yun listened carefully and knew that it was the voice of his master's wife, Zheng Qingwan.
He immediately responded, "Master's wife, it's me, Ling Yun."
Zheng Qingwan opened the door and saw that it was Ling Yun. She took his hand and said enthusiastically, "Oh, it's Yun'er! I've finally waited for you to come. Come in, come in. Come in."
Ling Yun stood without moving, just looked up and asked, "Master, is Master here?"
Zheng Qingwan looked at the well-behaved Ling Yun and said softly, "Your master is still teaching! But looking at this hour, he will be back soon. Come in first and have a glass of water."
Zheng Qingwan held Ling Yun's hand, not forgetting to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and said distressedly, "Look at you, you are sweating profusely, your whole body is sweating, why are you still here? Come in quickly."
When he heard that Xu Linfu didn't come back, Ling Yun originally wanted to refuse, but he couldn't resist Zheng Qingwan's enthusiasm, so he had to follow him in the door obediently.
After entering the door, Ling Yun handed the mooncakes he brought from home to Zheng Qingwan and said, "By the way, mistress, these are the mooncakes I brought from home. You can try them."
Hearing this, Zheng Qingwan was stunned and said suspiciously, "Oh? Moon cake, what kind of strange thing is this? How come the master has never heard of it?"
He picked up one of the boxes of mooncakes, looked at it carefully, and then opened it and said, "Hey, there are words engraved on it, Yun'er, did you make this?"
Ling Yun nodded.
Zheng Qingwan carefully picked up one, put it in her hand and said, "Yun'er, is this really edible?"
Ling Yun pointed to the mooncakes on the mooncake box and explained, "Master's wife, this is edible. You see, this one is fruit-flavored, and this one is vegetable-flavored."
"It actually has fruit flavor. It's really strange. Let's try it, Madam."
Zheng Qingwan took a small bite and said in surprise, "Ah! Yun'er, this is really good. It's much better than the steamed buns outside..."
"What's something delicious to eat behind my back again?"
Suddenly there was another voice outside the door. Ling Yun was startled, thinking that it must be Xu Linfu who was back.
As expected, Xu Linfu strode in.
Seeing the person coming, Ling Yun immediately added, "The student has met the teacher."
Xu Linfu just saw Ling Yun, his smile disappeared instantly, and he said with a straight face, "You brat, are you finally willing to come over?"
Ling Yun lowered his head and said respectfully, "Teacher, the student has something to do at home and has been unable to leave. That's why I didn't come to you until now. I hope you'll forgive me!"
Zheng Qingwan suddenly said, "Okay, Yun'er comes to see you, just have some fun! And you have to pretend to have a straight face. I don't know who is talking about Yun'er every day, why doesn't he come?
ah!"
Then he looked at Ling Yun and whispered, "Yun'er, don't pay attention to him. This old guy like your master is just pretending!"
After hearing what Zheng Qingwan said, Xu Linfu immediately retorted, "You...are talking nonsense."
Zheng Qingwan rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Are you talking nonsense, don't you know it in your heart? Come on, Yun'er, try the chicken soup that Mistress made today, it's delicious."
Zheng Qingwan simply ignored him, filled a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to Ling Yun.
Ling Yun hurriedly reached out and took it, thanking him, "Oh, okay, thank you, Master Wife!"
Ling Yun took the chicken soup and did not drink it immediately.
At this moment, he was smiling bitterly in his heart, wondering why he couldn't live without this chicken soup these days?
Could it be that he has a connection with chicken soup?
Seeing Ling Yun holding the chicken soup in both hands but not drinking it, Zheng Qingwan asked, "Yun'er, why don't you drink it? Doesn't it taste bad?"
"No, no, disciple, drink now."
Ling Yun came to his senses and drank the chicken soup in an orderly manner. He said that the taste was really good.
As far as the chicken soup that Ling Yun has been drinking for so long, as long as there is enough salt, he does not find it unpleasant to drink, unless it is the Wang family's ginseng black chicken soup.
After having lunch at Xu Linfu's place and discussing some study issues with him, Ling Yun left.
Passing by the pavilion of the academy, Ling Yun suddenly saw a familiar figure flashing past him.
He took a closer look and found that it was Lu Ziang whom he had not seen for a long time.
It's just that Lu Ziang didn't seem to want to meet him at the moment. The moment he saw him, he hid behind the flower bed.
Ling Yun shouted with interest, "Lu Ziang, what are you hiding from?"
Who knew that Lu Ziang didn't move and hid deeper after hearing his words.
Ling Yun felt very strange. Why was Lu Ziang so submissive today?
When I met him in the past, was it not sarcastic and tit-for-tat?
Is it wilting today?
Lu Ziang's body trembled when he heard Ling Yun calling him. He didn't expect that he had carefully hidden it so secretly, but he still discovered it in the end.
Just when Lu Ziang was thinking wildly, Ling Yun shouted again, "Lu Ziang, I saw you, come out quickly!"
Seeing that he could no longer hide, Lu Ziang had no choice but to pretend as if nothing had happened, stood up and said in surprise, "You...are Ling Yun, why are you here?"
Ling Yun looked him up and down, half-smiling but not smiling, "What do you think? Speaking of which, Lu Ziang, what are you hiding? Could it be that you have done something shameful?"
Lu Ziang blurted out, "I don't have one."
Ling Yun saw Lu Ziang's guilty look and said he wouldn't believe it without him.
So he clicked his tongue and said, "Oh, no? It doesn't look like it, does it?"
Seeing that Ling Yun didn't believe it, Lu Ziang immediately explained incomparably, "I didn't. Let me tell you Ling Yun, I'm not afraid of seeing you, I just didn't notice."
"Oh!" Ling Yun thought thoughtfully.
Lu Ziang said inexplicably at this time, "If it weren't for my family's troubles, I would definitely be admitted as a scholar."
Ling Yun suddenly realized, "Oh! Did you pretend not to see me because you didn't pass the examination?"
"I didn't, I just..."
Ling Yun spared no effort and asked, "Just what? I just didn't take the exam. I'll just take it again next year."
Lu Ziang asked suspiciously, "Ling Yun, have you forgotten the bet between us?"
"What kind of bet? Could it be that...that's why you don't have the face to see me because you lost to me?"
When Lu Ziang heard Ling Yun say that he had lost to him, he was obviously not convinced. He groaned and turned his head away.
Only then did Ling Yun remember that it turned out that this kid didn't dare to see him because he made a bet with him and lost. It was interesting, it was really interesting!
