Chapter 72 Secret
The full moon like a silver plate hangs high in the sky, sprinkling a piece of silver light, shining on an old banyan tree, under the tree, and is full of colorful colors.
Liu Bingyi and a fifteen-year-old girl stood under the tree. The girl looked pure and her big eyes were flashing.
"Xiaojun, I'm going to go to school tomorrow. From now on, we will meet on the way to school." Liu Bingyi stared at the girl and lowered his voice.
At this time, everything is quiet and the sound is a little louder, which will wake up nearby neighbors.
The girl named Xu Pingjun nodded and said softly: "If your elder brother knew about us, would he be angry?"
Xu Pingjun's home is next to the old house where Liu Bingyi lived. They were childhood sweethearts and were young. After Liu Bingyi's mother passed away, Xu's mother felt sorry for him and had no choice but to rely on him first. Although the family was not rich, she often helped him. Liu Bingyi took on a short-term worker. If he needed to put in a lot of effort, Xu Pingjun's father Xu Guanghan was worried that others would not be able to do it with little effort, so he helped him finish the work.
Before he met Cheng Mo, the Xu family was as kind as a mountain to him, and Xu Pingjun fell in love with him and warmed his desolate heart with tenderness. Now when he met Cheng Mo, he was able to move out of the old house that would collapse at any time. The only thing that made him uneasy was the kindness of the Xu family treating him and Xu Pingjun.
I lived in Cheng Mansion and met Xu Pingjun in the future, it would not be so convenient.
Liu Bingyi thought for a while and said, "It shouldn't be. But..."
But he doesn't want his elder brother to know about them now. He has been cautious since he was sensible. Before doing things and speaking, he always thinks about it again and again, for fear of angering others and bringing disaster to himself. Cheng Mo will not hurt him, but this habit has been around for a long time and has become his subconscious.
Xu Pingjun did not ask why, nor did he blame him for not mentioning her to Cheng Mo, but said considerately: "Then I will wait for you in Wang Po's house every day at the Youth hour."
There is an open space there and two rows of green vegetables are planted, and no one usually goes there.
"Yes." Liu Bingyi nodded vigorously and said, "When I can write an article, I will take you home."
From now on, Cheng's mansion will be his home.
Xu Pingjun smiled gently and said, "Okay. I hope this day will arrive soon."
The two hands were tightly clasped together, and their bodies slowly approached. Time passed, and before they knew it, the moon hung in the sky, Liu Bingyi exclaimed in a low voice: "Oh, it's time for me to go back."
As soon as he said that, he was afraid that someone from nearby neighbors would hear it, so he hurriedly covered his mouth.
Xu Pingjun said reluctantly: "I'll give you it."
"I'll give you my gift. We'll meet again tomorrow." Qiqi made an appointment to meet after Wang Po's house tomorrow, and he suddenly felt that the temporary separation was nothing. Xu Pingjun's home was next to the banyan tree, and Liu Bingyi took her to the door of the house, and then quickly walked towards the direction of Cheng's mansion.
When he returned to Cheng's mansion, he saw that the gate was closed and the dog was knocking to bed in the door. When he knew that Cheng Mo had left the door for him, he felt warm in his heart. With a little humility, he turned around and closed the gate, put it on the tie, patted the dog's shoulder, and said, "Go back and sleep."
The dog was woken up and said in a daze: "Are you back? Why are you going for so long?"
If Alang hadn't told him that he would have closed the door and went to bed early, how could he pay attention to Liu Bingye's return? When would he come back?
Cheng Mo lived in the backyard, and the moon gate was closed. Liu Bing quietly returned to his room. Thinking of being able to read, the smile on his face could not be stopped, so he took out the book Cheng Mo bought for him and turned it over.
At this time, Cheng Mo had already fallen asleep and had no dreams of dawn all night.
I don’t have to go to the palace to work today, so I just happened to send Liu Bingyi to my private custody.
After performing the ceremony of apprenticeship, the old man asked Liu Bingyi to sit in the last row. He started the class and first taught four sentences of the Three Character Classics, so that the students could shake their heads and recite them for a long time, then practice writing these four sentences, and then came to Liu Bingyi's seat to teach him the Analects of Confucius.
Liu Bingyi studied very seriously. Cheng Mo stood at the window watching the old man attend class. The elementary school children turned to look at him from time to time and winked at him, but he did not squint.
Seeing that he was so serious, Cheng Mo nodded secretly. This child is a talent for making.
The old man taught Liu Bingyi two sentences of the Analects of Confucius and explained what it means, asking him to copy each sentence ten times, then left the classroom and came to Cheng Mo.
Just as he greeted each other again, he opened his mouth to say something, and shouted at the door: "Alang, Alang!"
The private cushion was transformed from the old man's wing room, and the yard outside the door is the door.
The primary school children all put down their pens and stood up, stretched their necks and looked out, hoping to go out and see who was outside.
The old man changed his face and said angrily: "Who is making noise outside?"
Cheng Mo heard that his voice looked very much like Puxiang, and said to Heizi, who was sitting in the shadow of the courtyard to cool off, "Go and have a look."
Soon, Puxiang came in with sweat and gasping. It was hard for him to run all the way on the hot day, and his whole body was soaked with sweat.
"Alang, there is a Lord Le asking for a meeting." Before he could salute, Puxiang said the key point first, saying, "He said he must wait for you to come back home and leave when he sees you."
Why do people say this so disgusting? Cheng Mo and the old man said goodbye: "I have asked Mr. to take more care of my illness."
The old man was very happy and finally left. He didn't have to speak up, so he would be fine. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will teach you with all my heart."
Cheng Mo thanked him and took Heizi and the guards back. Puxiang kept wiping his sweat and said, "Alang, go faster. That Lord Le is already waiting in the mansion."
That's a high-ranking official, whose title is so great that it's so big. How can such a high-ranking official wait? What if he gets angry?
Cheng Mo glanced at him and felt that this housekeeper was very incompetent for the first time.
Puxiang was a little scared by Cheng Mo, but it was related to the future of the Cheng Mansion. He still bit the bullet and said, "Alang..."
"Okay, no need to say anything." Cheng Mo ignored him.
Yesterday, after Le Yuan returned from Duke Anguo's mansion, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Cheng Mo had a high level of knowledge. If he continued to argue according to Cheng Mo's ideas, he would definitely become famous in the capital and become a new generation of great scholars.
Such talents must be handed over in a short while.
It just so happened that today I was resting. So early in the morning, he was wearing casual clothes and found An Renfang. Unexpectedly, Cheng Mo sent Liu Bingyi to school early in the morning, and the difference between the two was only a skill between the two.
Puxiang saw that he was of extraordinary temperament and looked at his famous posts, and he was almost scared to death. He lived in his forties. When did he take over the famous posts of a officials? Or was it a famous post for a high-ranking official?
He didn't know when Cheng Mo went out. After a long period of turmoil, he learned that Cheng Mo went to private placement and hurriedly came to find someone.
At this time, Le Yuan had been waiting in Cheng's Mansion for almost an hour.
Before entering the door, Puxiang glanced at Cheng Mo and thought, what should I do if the high-ranking official gets angry and is punished?
In the main hall, Le Yuan slowly drank tea. He had already admired the pictures of ladies on the screen and the paintings hanging on the wall several times. There was really nothing to see anymore, so he had to sit down and drink tea.
"Mr. Le arrived, and the humble house was filled with glory. I was a little disappointed to welcome him." Cheng Mo came in with a smile.
