In April of the sixth year of Zhongping, Liu Hong died, General He Jin took power, and the world was undercurrent.
Chen stayed in the Cai family.
The sound of an eight-year-old child reading aloud came from the study room.
"Song Yannian, Zheng Zifang, Wei Yishou, Shi Buchang...Zhu Jiaobian, Kong Heshang, Shi Menghu, Shi Gandang...the names are over, please say something..."
Outside the window, two young women were quietly observing the children in the room through the panes, while whispering.
"Miss, the young master is so smart."
"Well, it's really extraordinary to be able to memorize the entire chapter of "Ji Jiu Zhang" silently at the age of eight."
The maid Xiaocui thought for a while and said: "The young master is good at everything, but he grows up too fast. He is only eight years old and is already taller than the young lady. He looks very scary. Also, he is already eight years old, and he is still taller than the young lady."
I want to sleep in the same room with you, miss. If word spreads, I’m afraid my reputation will be in jeopardy.”
"Oh~ I am also worried about this matter. My father has gone to Hedong and no one cares about him. What should I do?"
"Alas..." The master and servant looked at each other and sighed in unison, unable to do anything.
Listening to these sounds outside the window, Ma Su also sighed.
It has been five years since he reincarnated.
After the dog system turned him into a three-year-old child and left him on the roadside, he disappeared and let go.
Fortunately, he was lucky enough to be picked up by Cai Yan and adopted as his adopted son by his father Cai Yong. He was able to survive in troubled times and survive in the Cai Mansion.
Because the word "Ma Su" was written on his coat, after recognizing Cai Yong as his adoptive father, Cai Yong changed his name to Cai Su, saying that he could change his surname back to his original name when he grew up.
As a result, Ma Su's current name became Cai Su, and his name remained unchanged. He was still called You Chang.
Although most people don't have names until they are in their early years, there are always exceptions.
Ma Su is that exception.
I don’t know if it’s due to his perfect reincarnation. He is only eight years old this year and is already 1.7 meters tall, which is 7 feet 2 by the standard of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Cai Yan, who is 16 years old this year, is only just over 1.6 meters tall.
.
Siblings who are eight years apart stand together, and there is serious disharmony from every angle.
The most important thing is that the siblings have not yet completely slept in separate rooms.
In fact, when they were six years old, the sister and brother had already separated due to Cai Yong's strong intervention. But secretly, everything remained as usual.
Because Cai Yong was a great scholar with a terrifying reputation. He often received invitations from scholars and princes and nobles from all over the country to do some academic work or to maintain a favor. He had not been with his family for a long time, so things evolved into this situation.
Cai Yong is currently in a twelve-year period of frustration. Although in the first year of Zhongping, due to the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Emperor Liu Hong granted amnesty and lifted the party imprisonment, and Cai Yong was able to return to his hometown in Chenliu from Wu County. However, Cai Yong
Yong was not appointed by the imperial court, so he was busy writing some articles, walking around with some close friends, accepting some disciples, and passing on his wealth of knowledge.
His thoughts turned around and Ma Su sighed again.
The past five years have been so miserable.
Unexpectedly, I would experience the "fun" of going to school again after so many years. The "Emergency Chapter" in my hand is exactly the poison of enlightenment in this era. Reading it is boring and makes people sleepy.
Fortunately, in this life, his mind was brighter, he could see ten lines at a glance, and had a photographic memory. Not only was he familiar with music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he also knew a little bit about the Six Arts of a Gentleman, such as horse riding and archery.
This gave him considerable confidence to face the coming troubled times.
Although the system's farewell without saying goodbye made Ma Su slightly regretful, it also gave him a chance to compete fairly with the heroes of this era.
After experiencing the process of fighting and killing every moment in his previous life, now he is calm and calm, and just wants to live a stable life.
Unfortunately, this wish is destined to be a luxury in this era.
The boat is about to stop but the waves are fierce.
Outside the window, Cai Yan and Xiao Cui were still whispering.
Ma Su tiptoed open the door, tiptoed behind the two girls, coughed heavily,
"Humph~um~hum!"
The hair on the two girls' hair suddenly stood up and they were all frightened. Xiaocui sat down on the ground and looked over with resentful eyes.
As expected, the naughty young master held the eldest lady firmly and ignored her at all.
Too biased!
"Miss, look at him! He's disgusting!"
Cai Yan gave Ma Su an angry look and said, "Don't mess around. You come in with me. I have something to say to you."
After saying that, he took the lead and entered the study room.
Ma Su followed in and looked straight at Cai Yan, who had a pleasant appearance and an outstanding temperament.
Just looking at her makes me feel very peaceful and comfortable.
Cai Yan felt a little embarrassed when he saw him. He glanced over in shame and walked around the room with small steps, pondering over his words.
She and Xiaocui were called master and servant, but they were actually sisters. They talked about everything on weekdays. Before Ma Di came to Cai's house, they slept in the same bed for ten years; but after Ma Di came,
After arriving at Cai's house...
Xiaocui returned to where she should be.
Today, Cai Yan thought over and over again and felt that he could not go on like this, so he made up his mind to talk to this younger brother.
"Brother Su, you are old. You can no longer sleep in the same room with your sister..." This sentence passed through Cai Yan's throat several times, but it was still difficult to express it in his mouth.
Ma Su knew what was going on, and deliberately pretended not to know. He looked at Cai Yan carelessly, his eyes following the movement of her skirt. After a while, Cai Yan couldn't resist it and gave her a fierce look.
, fled in despair.
The matter of room allocation was put on hold again.
In June, Cai Yong returned to Chenliu with a young man, dusty and tired.
As soon as Ma Su saw the young man, information about Wei Zhongdao popped up in his mind.
Wei Zhongdao is 18 years old, a child of the Wei family in Hedong. He comes from a well-to-do family and has a handsome appearance, but his steps are a little sloppy, which is a sign of physical weakness.
At this time, Cai Yong had not yet come back, nor had he experienced a political crisis, so he had not yet thought of marrying off his daughter early, but he was already keeping an eye on suitable candidates.
This Wei Zhongdao was the first son-in-law candidate chosen by Cai Yong. He had a good family background, good looks, matched age, and was quite talented. Translated to future generations, he would be a rich, handsome and well-matched man.
It can be said to be a blessing from heaven.
But Ma Su doesn't think so.
So from the beginning, he showed a lot of hostility towards Wei Zhongdao.
"Come on, come on, Yan'er, Su'er, this is your elder brother, Wei Ning, Wei Zhongdao."
As soon as he returned home, Cai Yong ordered his servants to call Cai Yan and Ma Su to meet Wei Zhongdao.
"Zhongdao, this is my eldest daughter, Cai Yan, who is sixteen years old; this is my adopted son, Cai Su, who is eight years old."
"Eight years old..." Wei Zhongdao glanced at Ma Di, who was slightly taller than himself, and was completely confused.
Is this eight years old?
Teacher, I believe you when you say he is eighteen years old!
Cai Yong was actually shocked. He left in March, and now it is June. After three months of absence, this adopted son has actually grown a lot taller.
Is there anything wrong with this child?
"I've met Brother Shi."
"I've met Brother Shi."
The siblings saluted one after another, Cai Yan made a blessing, and Ma Di bowed his hand.
Wei Zhongdao quickly returned the courtesy.
After a few young people exchanged pleasantries, Cai Yong cleared his throat and announced a decision, "Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, General He Jin is in power, and the country is in dire need, I intend to go to Luoyang to find a job. You three brothers and sisters
Everyone will go with me and we will set off in ten days. Well... Zhongdao will also go with me."
The three people quickly raised their hands and said yes.
After a slightly weird meeting, Wei Zhongdao and his sister and brother came to the inner courtyard for further communication. This is usually the case when children from aristocratic families come and go, with the elders making connections and developing relationships on their own.
In private, the atmosphere was not as serious as before in the lobby. Wei Zhongdao was the first to bow his hand to Cai Yan, and then said to Ma Su: "Hello, sister Yan, brother Su."
"What's wrong with me?" Ma Su didn't give him any face.
"Well……"
"Pfft~"
Wei Zhongdao was embarrassed on the spot, at a loss. Just when he was thinking about what to say and was about to answer this question, Cai Yan had already been taken away by Ma Su.
The private party broke up unhappy as soon as it started.
From that day on, Ma Su kept a close eye on Cai Yan every day and prevented Wei Zhongdao from any possibility of meeting Cai Yan in private.
If it really can't be stopped...
Then wreak havoc.
Although Ma Su also knew that there was no use in doing so, and all the decision-making power rested with Cai Yong, but it would only be a temporary thing if he could put an end to it.
How could he be willing to do so without disturbing his marriage?
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
Early that morning, Ma Su was sleeping soundly in his room when he suddenly heard a voice saying, "Brother, it's time to set off." He suddenly lost all sleep and sat up in shock.
Cai Yan seemed to have discovered some little secret, his eyes narrowed into crescent shapes, and he covered his mouth and snickered.
Ma Su's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
I feel like this sister's painting style seems to be a little off track.
But no matter what, a new journey is about to begin.
