Chapter 23, Xiangma Shepherd!
Chapter 23: Horses and Sheep!
The visitor is not good!
It’s not that Li Muyang has the ability to see through the good and bad hearts of a person at a glance, but deep down he felt that such a handsome, handsome young master, had no reason to come and chat with a little person, right?
There must be something to do.
Look, Li Muyang is such a humble and inferior cute little boy.
Li Muyang looked at the other person with wide eyes, wearing a black satin gown, hand-cranked folding fan, and a very friendly smile on his face.
Li Muyang fell in love with him all of a sudden and said, "I don't think so."
Yan Xiangma's expression was slightly stunned, then put the paper fan away with a "puff" sound, put it in his palm and patted it gently, looking at Li Muyang with interest and said, "As you read more, your horizons will be wider, your heart will be bigger, you will want more and more, and your heart will become more and more greedy - if this is the case, isn't it a very dangerous thing?"
"Reading can also be to make the law clear, respect morality and goodness, and cultivate righteousness." Li Muyang refuted it reasonably. "Why are there constant killings in the barbarian land? Why are there constant wars in the border deserts? It is because those barbarians and shepherds read too little, and they cannot make the law clear, respect morality and goodness. If everyone is studying, how can they still have time to fight and kill?"
Yan Xiangma shook her head, looked at Li Muyang thoughtfully, and said, "No."
"What's wrong?"
"I've asked someone to inquire, and others say you're a fool." Yan Xiangma shook her head and said, "But I don't think you're stupid. On the contrary, you're smarter than many people I've seen."
"I'm a fool," said Li Muyang. "Every time I take the exam, I'm the last in the school."
"No, no, no, there must be other reasons here." Yan Xiangma denied Li Muyang's statement that he was a fool. "But smart people are good, I like to communicate with smart people. Smart people are sensible and understand words, don't you?"
Li Muyang knew that he had finally gotten to the point, so he casually read a book called "Theory of Strong Soldiers" in his hand and said, "It depends on what it is."
"Oh, forgot to introduce yourself-" Yan Xiangma opened the folding fan with a 'slap' and said to Li Muyang: "Yan Xiangma, Cui Xiaojing's cousin."
Li Muyang suddenly became enthusiastic, closed the book in his hand, and shouted respectfully: "Cousin, it's you? Let's take a walk and follow me to the house for tea. My house is at the entrance of the alley in front, and I will be there in a few steps-"
As he said that, he grabbed Yan Xiangma's sleeve and prepared to go home.
"Wait--" Yan Xiangma shook Li Muyang's black hand and said angrily: "What are you doing? Who is so familiar with you?"
"Cousin, you don't know. Cui Xiaoxin and I are classmates and good friends. Cui Xiaoxin's cousin is naturally my cousin. Since my cousin has arrived at our doorstep, if I don't invite you back for a cup of tea, I will be angry if I know. My parents will blame me for not being polite when I know - Cousin, go back with me. It's hot here, and I have a watermelon with ice-cold water in my house to quench my thirst."
While speaking, Li Muyang reached out to pull Yan Xiangma's wrist again.
"Random." Yan Xiangma was anxious and said, "I tell you, don't touch me. I hate others and pulling my clothes the most - let me go, my mother said to let you go-away me-"
Li family, Li Muyang and Yan Xiangma were sitting under the vines in the yard and eating watermelon.
The watermelon was soaked in cold water in the deep well for several hours, and it felt a sense of coolness from the inside to the outside. In this hot summer, it tasted like a hair on the whole body.
Yan Xiangma ate three large pieces of watermelon in one breath. When Li Muyang sent the fourth piece, he finally waved his hand, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his mouth, and said, "If you don't eat it, your stomach will be exhausted."
Li Muyang also ate three pieces of watermelon, but he did not have the habit of carrying a handkerchief with him, so he could only go to drill a bucket of well water to wash his hands.
Li Muyang did not make tea. It was not good for her to drink hot tea immediately after eating frozen watermelon.
He sat on the stone bench opposite Yan Xiangma and said with a smile: "Why did my cousin arrive at Hubu Lane? Is there anything to deal with?"
"No, I came for you." Yan Xiangma looked satisfied. Li Muyang's watermelon made him very satisfied. He had never eaten such a sweet watermelon at home.
"Is there anything wrong with my cousin looking for me?" Li Muyang asked.
Yan Xiangma took out a box from his arms and handed it over. Li Muyang refused to answer and asked, "What is this?"
Yan Xiangma placed the box on the stone table, gently pushed it towards Li Muyang's sitting and said, "Open and take a look."
Li Muyang did not reach out to touch the exquisite and classical box, smiled and shook his head, and said, "I will not receive any rewards without merit. My cousin and I met for the first time. I don't understand why my cousin gave me such a big gift?"
"I am entrusted by my mother to thank you for your self-sacrifice for your cousin." Yan Xiangma said with a smile. Li Muyang was unmoved by the jewelry he gave, and he didn't even open it and looked at it. He looked around the Li family. Although he didn't look poor, he definitely said he was not rich. He opened a small bakery at home, which could only maintain the basic living expenses of their family. Isn't children growing up in such families having unimaginable desires for money and silk?
"My cousin was attacked in a cafe, thanks to her classmate Muyang's rescue. If you hadn't stopped the killer for a while, I'm afraid the servants would not be able to arrive in time for rescue - our family has no habit of oweting people. So please accept this gift."
Li Muyang shook his head and said, "My cousin said so, then I can't accept this gift."
Yan Xiangma gently waved the folding fan and said, "Oh? What's the reason? Let's hear it."
"It is true that you are your cousin, but you are also my classmates and friends. The reason we appeared in the cafe was because we were careful that our classmates spoke out righteously when I was bullied, and we left school with me in anger."
"And, what we discussed in the cafe at that time was also for my tutoring friendship. As the college entrance examination was approaching, I was willing to give up my review and help me make up for it at such a critical moment. I can remember this kindness in my heart for the rest of my life-"
"When the killer attacked, the incident happened suddenly, I didn't have any preparation time. However, whether it was a careful classmate and friend, or the only male companion around her, I had the responsibility and obligation to rush forward to protect him. So, I couldn't accept this gift, I just did what I should do."
Yan Xiangma's face was always filled with a smile of Yun Danfeng, and his eyes were staring at Li Muyang's eyes without blinking.
When he said this, he did not dodge his eyes, nor did he feel timid or guilty. If this person is not a person who is good at hiding, it proves that his words are indeed what he is thinking.
"I think the gift giving behavior is too vulgar and unbearable after hearing what you said." Yan Xiangma shook his head and sighed.
"You can't say that in your cousin." Li Muyang stopped him urgently and said, "My cousin is from a wealthy family. He has the rules and arrogance of a wealthy family. You give me a generous gift to thank me. This is your kindness. But from my standpoint, I must not accept this gift."
"Well. If you don't accept it, don't accept it." Yan Xiangma took the box back and put it in his arms. "Then, let's continue talking about the following matter."
"Cousin, please speak."
"I just saw you buying books in a bookstore. How are you reviewing recently?" Yan Xiangma asked with a smile. He always smiled, and he smiled very well. It was really easy for people to have a good impression of him.
"We are working hard." Li Muyang replied seriously: "Adjust more, there will be more hope."
"I didn't answer my question." Yan Xiangma said. "Then I will change the more direct way of asking - do you think you have the hope of getting into a prestigious school?"
"Go to the best of your efforts. As for whether you can get into a prestigious school, it's in Tianyoude."
"It's too unsafe. It's really too unsafe. Judging from your tone, I'm afraid you don't have much confidence to pass the exam. I've checked your grades, and the first-class schools are really far away for you." Yan Xiangma looked at Li Muyang with a sincere face and said, "How is this good? I promise you an admission notice from a prestigious school, are you willing to accept it?"
Li Muyang blinked his long eyelashes and asked, "Are you serious about this?"
"Of course. You go out and ask, when did I, Yan Xiangma, tell lies?"
“What do I need to pay?”
“Nothing needs to be paid.”
"Then I will thank my cousin first." Li Muyang said happily: "Can you guarantee me to go to Xifeng University?"
Yan Xiangma's face finally sank, and it was the first time that this cold and sharp expression appeared in front of Li Muyang.
"Not good." Yan Xiangma said in a cold voice. "First, you can't go to Xifeng University. For your safety, I advise you not to go to Tiandu. Tiandu is expensive, I am afraid that you can't support yourself wherever you want. Second, I can help you get the admission notice from Jiangnan University, and you can also choose the best majors of Jiangnan University - Jiangnan University is also the first-class institution of the Empire. I myself graduated from Jiangnan. I guess you won't dislike this, right?"
