"Lao Li, why are you here?" Wang Gui rushed onto a boulder, so happy that he almost jumped directly on Li Yanqing's donkey. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Yanqing pretended to be on the donkey and said: "I am here to congratulate Brother Wang on the ninth place in the high school entrance examination, with a little courtesy, please smile!" ”

After speaking, he handed a hare he caught on the road to Wang Gui, Wang Gui was stunned for a moment, and the three of them immediately burst into laughter.

Tang Yuan'er ran forward and saw the hare, she immediately shouted in surprise: "Lao Li, give me the hare!" ”

Li Yanqing threw the rabbit to her, and smiled at Tang Huai again: "You sister should educate well, she is always neither big nor small, why don't you change your words?" ”

Tang Huai glanced at Wang Gui, "I can't control her, you can find someone to take care of it!" ”

Wang Gui scratched his head, "Lao Li, you won't really give me a rabbit as a gift!" ”

"Yes! I'm going to give you another pheasant. ”

While speaking, Li Yanqing took out a pair of six good pocket swords bought in the county weapon, handed them to Wang Gui and said with a smile: "Coax you, how can I not give you a gift?" ”

Wang Gui was overjoyed, took the little sword and said angrily: "Lao Li still knows me, I like this kind of little sword!" ”

Li Yanqing jumped off the donkey, stepped forward and asked Tang Yuan'er with a smile, "What good things did you hit, why don't you show me quickly?" ”

Tang Yuan'er picked up two pheasants, "I shot two pheasants, all of them were shot by your brother!" ”

Tang Huai rolled his eyes, pretending not to hear, Li Yanqing took it over and looked at it, and said with a smile: "It's quite fat, let's bake it at noon." ”

"That's a good idea!"

When Tang Yuan'er heard that she was going to roast game, she immediately said with great interest: "I'll go back and get some barbecue guys later!" ”

At this time, Li Yanqing didn't see Yue Fei left and right, so he asked with a smile, "What is Lao Yue doing?" ”

Tang Huai said with a smile: "He is helping his father turn over the land, and their family bought another ten acres of wasteland this year to plant wheat in the autumn." ”

Li Yanqing nodded, and said to Wang Gui in a low voice: "Old Gui, I have an important matter today that I want to ask you for a favor." ”

Wang Gui saw that his expression was serious, not like joking with himself, so he also put away his playfulness and asked Tang Yuan'er to play to the side temporarily, and Tang Yuan pouted and walked away unhappily.

Wang Gui then asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Yanqing told the patriarch about borrowing the boat, and finally said to the two: "My father and the patriarch are already anxious about this matter, if the food cannot be sent to the capital in time, our Li family's hard work for several years will be wasted." ”

Tang Huai next to him frowned, "Why is the Zhang family in a hurry to get a boat?" Yesterday, Zhang Daxiao also told me that their cloth has not been harvested yet! ”

"The Zhang family and the Li family have some historical grievances, don't talk about these now, Lao Gui, you have to help me with this matter and say a few good words in front of your grandfather."

Wang Gui patted his chest, "It's wrapped around me, I'll go to my grandfather now." ”

The three of them stopped hunting and walked quickly towards Wang Gui's house, Tang Yuan'er also followed Wang Gui and came to the gate of the palace together.

After waiting for a while, Wang Gui came out and said to Li Yanqing: "Now my grandfather is too busy to listen to me, why don't you wait for noon!" I'll find another chance. ”

Li Yanqing nodded, "I'll leave this matter to you." ”

At this time, a little servant came running and said to Wang Gui: "Brother Gui, the master asked you to hurry over to meet the guests!" ”

Wang Gui really didn't want to go, but he didn't dare not listen to his grandfather's words, so he had to mumble and follow the little guy back to the mansion.

At this time, Tang Huai whispered to Li Yanqing: "Lao Li, it's not me who hit you, you expect Lao Gui to persuade his grandfather, I don't think there is much hope for success, the Zhang family and the Wang family have a deep interest relationship, Lao Gui's grandfather is already giving face to your patriarch by maintaining neutrality, unless the Zhang family gives up borrowing the boat themselves, otherwise, you still don't have too much hope." ”

Li Yanqing nodded silently, he knew that what Tang Huai said was the truth, this kind of competition between the two families could not be solved by Wang Gui with two good words, and he had to think of something else.

At this time, two young guests came on horseback in the distance, and the one in front was Zhang Daxiao, who was eighteen years old this year, did not get admitted to the state school, and now followed his uncle to run the cloth business, and from the appearance he was already very smooth and sophisticated, completely devoid of the youth of his student days.

Another horseback rider, Li Yanqing, was a little familiar, he was also a young man, a little old-looking, but he was only sixteen or seventeen years old when he looked closely, he was not very tall, but he was very strong, with bronze skin, his hands were as strong as steel claws, and his eyes were as sharp as eagles.

Li Yanqing suddenly remembered, isn't this the young man who has a very close relationship with Dayan in the Spring Society? He is indeed a member of the Zhang family, but he has never seen him.

"Who's that man?"

Li Yanqing's mouth was full and he asked, "The guy who was with Zhang Daxiao." ”

Tang Huai's eyes suddenly showed admiration, "That person may be the most outstanding son of the Zhang family, called Zhang Qiao, the third place in the Xiangzhou martial arts examination, and he will enter Beijing to participate in the martial arts provincial examination in June this year." ”

Li Yanqing was also interested, he was actually a martial artist, when did such an outstanding disciple appear in the Zhang family, he had never heard of it.

Tang Huai understood Li Yanqing's doubts, so he explained with a smile: "He is from Anyang, not from our Tangyin County, and he happened to buy a horse in our Tangyin County during this time, and today Mr. Zhang specially brought him to Wang's house to eat and drink." ”

"Why?" Li Yanqing was puzzled.

Tang Huai laughed in a low voice: "The four squires of Xiaohe Township, the Li family won the first place in the county examination, the Wang family and our Tang family also entered the top ten, the Zhang family's face can't be hung up!" Of course, you have to bring a promising child to support the field. ”

"I see!"

Li Yanqing smiled again and asked, "Then how is his martial arts?" ”

"I've only seen him shoot arrows, pull eight bucket bows, and the arrows hit the bull's-eye, and I don't know anything else, it is said that he is powerful."

At this time, Zhang Daxiao saw Tang Huai and urged the horse to run this way, and Tang Huai waved to him to say hello.

Zhang Daxiao grabbed the reins of the horse, turned over and dismounted, he suddenly recognized Li Yanqing, and his eyes widened exaggeratedly: "Yo! Isn't this Brother Qing'er? It was the fragrant wind that blew your old man's house! ”

Li Yanqing saw that his hair was combed shiny, he was wearing a black satin half-sleeved gown, and there were more than a dozen unknown gadgets hanging on his belt, and his little belly was already slightly fat.

Li Yanqing smiled faintly, "Lao Zhang has made a fortune in the past two years!" ”

"Where! Where! It's just a little money to make a little money, how can your Li family's grain business be big. ”

Li Yanqing heard a hint of sarcasm in his tone, and remembered what his grandfather said to him, Zhang Junbao had already come yesterday, and it stands to reason that he shouldn't come again today, but they still came today, obviously to prevent the Li family from borrowing a boat from Wang Wanhao.

Tang Huai next to him hurriedly smiled and said: "I heard that Brother Zhang has played all over the capital, it's really enviable!" ”

"That's it! As long as you have money in the capital, those days are simply happier than the gods, Ah Tang, don't go to study in any bullshit county, it's really boring, go to the capital with my brother, I'll take you to eat all the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and then take you to the teaching workshop to open meat, to ensure that you don't want to study again, how about it, go to the capital with your brother next month? ”

Li Yanqing didn't listen to Zhang Daxiao's nonsense, his eyes fell on Zhang Qiao behind him, he felt that this Zhang Qiao was a strength-type warrior, his arms were extremely muscular, and he was not very tall because he had practiced weightlifting for many years, especially with a single gong on his back, which seemed to be full of strength, this was a real Koban warrior, and his temperament was very different from that of Uncle Hu's reckless warrior.

Zhang Qiao glanced at Li Yanqing, although he had seen Li Yanqing in the Spring Society, but there was a little more disdain in his eyes, if it wasn't for his clan brother greeting Tang Huai, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to these country boys.

At this time, Zhang Daxiao glanced at Li Yanqing, rolled his eyes, and introduced Li Yanqing to Zhang Qiao, "Third brother, I forgot to introduce to you, this little brother Li is the first place in our county examination this year, the first in both civil and military affairs, and he is very famous in our Xiaohe Township." ”

Zhang Qiao said lightly: "What is the county exam?" How I haven't heard of it. ”

Zhang Daxiao heard the ridicule in his brother's tone, and couldn't help laughing: "It's the entrance exam of the county school, which is even more powerful than the exam!" ”

"Let's go! Don't waste any more time. ”

Zhang Qiao no longer ignored Li Yanqing, rode his horse and ran north, Zhang Daxiao hurriedly turned over and got on his horse, and said to Tang Huai: "Ah Tang, my brother's suggestion, you should consider it!" ”

"I see!"

Zhang Daxiao urged the horse to chase after the clan brother in the north, looking at the Zhang brothers walking away, Tang Huai smiled and said, "Don't you feel a little arrogant?" ”

Li Yanqing nodded, "There is indeed a little." ”

Tang Huai sighed, "After all, it's the third place in the martial arts test!" People have arrogant capital, and it's normal to look down on us. ”

Li Yanqing smiled and said, "It's still early, let's go see Lao Yue!" ”

The two of them turned around and walked towards Yue Fei's house.

．．．．．．

Yue Fei's house is next door to Wang Gui's house, but although it is next door, there is still a distance from each other, mainly separated by a fish pond of more than ten acres, the fish pond is planted with weeping willows on both sides, the willow trees have sprouted at this time, the green willows are shady, the wheat seedlings on the land are green, and there is a piece of green oil everywhere, which is particularly pleasing to the eye.

Yue Fei's house is an ordinary farmhouse, with five rooms in one courtyard, but Tangwang Village is generally wealthy, and the conditions of Yue Fei's house are not bad, and all five are tiled houses.

Yue Fei originally had four brothers, but unfortunately they all died young, he was the fifth, everyone called him Wulang, there is a sister above, who is going to get married next year, and there is a brother Yue Tuo, who is only seven years old this year, and has just entered Lushan Academy.

Of course, Li Yanqing is not the first time to come to Yue Fei's house, he and Tang Huai bypassed the fish pond, only to see a woman in her thirties walking in front of her, it is Yue Fei's mother Yao, that is, the daughter of Master Yao Ding, Yao Yue's two families are world friends, Yao has been married to Yue Fei's father Yue He since he was a child, he is knowledgeable and reasonable, and she is a very virtuous woman.

Yao was wearing a coarse cloth dress that she had woven and tailored, with a copper hairpin on her head, although their family was not too poor, with Yue Fei's father's diligence and dozens of acres of good land left by her ancestors, she could also afford to buy a few decent pieces of jewelry and clothes, but Yao was very frugal, used the money saved for the children to study, and taught the children to learn to live a simple life by example.

"Hello Auntie!" Li Yanqing and Tang Huai hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Yao's favorite among his son's friends Li Yanqing is her father's beloved apprentice, who understands etiquette and progress, so that her family Wulang also studied hard, and actually took the second place in the county examination, which is called close to Zhu Zhechi.

Yao smiled and said, "It turned out to be Brother Qing and Ah Tang, who came to find my family Goro!" He's still in the field, and he's busy today, so I'm going to bring some water to their father and son. ”

As she spoke, she raised the clay pot and coarse porcelain bowl in her hand, and Li Yanqing smiled: "Auntie, go back and rest!" Let's go to Brother Yue'er to deliver water. ”

Yao hesitated, then agreed, "That's fine!" ”

"Auntie, let's go."

Li Yanqing took the crockpot, and ran to the field with Tang Huai, Yao looked at them and ran, shook his head with a smile, and turned to go home.
