When Kitazor returned to the room, he also tidied himself up and changed back to his usual clothes. Although it is not as delicate and beautiful as everyone's ladies, it is much more pleasing to the eye than the person who is not a human ghost or a ghost just now, at least you can see that this is a delicate girl, not a boy from the mountains.

When she came to the front hall, Bei Qingteng and Ji Changkong had already been seated for a long time, and they were exchanging something at the moment, and they were talking happily. Seeing this situation, Bei Ran pursed his mouth and said in his heart: This and the attitude towards me are really the same as heaven and earth.

She walked to the center of the hall, raised her hand and saluted, "Father and mother are well." ”

Seeing Ji Changkong turn her head to look at her, she stuck out her tongue and made a grimace at him, and then sat down on the seat opposite him.

Mrs. North glared at her with a smile: "Ah Ran must not be rude. ”

During the banquet, Bei Qingteng had been talking to Ji Changkong, but Bei Ran didn't listen to a word of the chat. She kept her head on her back thinking about a question-

After this meal, my father will send Ji Changkong down the mountain!

He's leaving!

For some reason, she just didn't want him to go, so how could she let him stay?

With her head on her back, she absentmindedly poked an omelette on the plate with the chopsticks in her hand, which she poked all over the place. Suddenly, she had an idea, threw away her chopsticks, and immediately went to her mother, pulling her mother's sleeve to be coquettish.

"Mother, the daughter knew that this time while the father and mother went to Kezhai and did something wrong at home, the father and mother were very angry. After my father scolded me, I reflected on it carefully, and I also deeply felt that what I did was wrong, so I thought that I must apologize to this son. ”

"Just now my father said that he would send his son down the mountain after the meal, but you see that it is late today, and this mountain road is usually not very easy to walk, and it is even more bumpy and difficult to walk at night, and it must be unsafe to go down the mountain at this time. I think it's better to prepare a room and let my son stay here for a few more days, see the scenery in our mountains, and feel the enthusiasm of our mountain people. I must also apologize to my son and make up for the mistakes I have made in the past few days. What does my mother think? ”

After speaking, she blinked her eyes and looked at Mrs. North expectantly.

She said it soundingly, but in fact, Mrs. Bei knew exactly what she had in mind, after all, she was such a daughter, who could know her better than her.

Mrs. North scratched her nose with her fingers and smiled, "You." "My eyes are full of pampering.

Then, she got up and walked to the side of the Beizhai Lord and discussed something with him in a low voice. After a while, the lord of Beizhai nodded in agreement, and she smiled back. Then he returned to his previous position and sat down, and nodded to Beiran.

Bei Ran was about to jump up happily, and she knew that it would not be wrong to let her mother out. Among the three members of their family, her father may not be able to listen to what she says, but he listens to her mother the most, and her mother listens to her.

The lord of Beizhai cleared his throat and said loudly: "Ji Gongzi, I don't think it's better to be like this, where are you going, it's better to stay in my cottage, teach me this little girl to read and learn calligraphy, and be her husband." ”

Bei Ran glanced at Ji Changkong, and it happened that he was also looking this way, and the two of them looked straight up, both of them were stunned, and then looked away at the same time.

Mr?

In the conversation just now, Bei Qingteng already had a general understanding of the situation of this son.

is not a royal child as he thought, but an idle tourist on the rivers and lakes, which also made his heart that had been hanging finally let go.

This person's surname is Ji Changkong, which has been told to him before, and he is from an inconspicuous town on the border of the homeland. When he was a child, he encountered enemy invasions, and his parents died in the war, so he grew up with the soldiers in the army since he was a child, and knew some martial arts for self-defense.

When he was a little older, he said goodbye to his brothers, left the army alone, and began to wander around. During this period, he studied piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he also knew a little about poetry and songs. He also followed the old doctor who helped the world with the folk hanging pot, and was a closed disciple for several years and learned a lot of medical skills.

After that, he traveled to various places, and when he saw disasters and diseases, he left behind to help. or heal the sick and save people, or preach and teach, and wait until the problem is calmed before leaving. Over the years, it has been the same, and there is no fixed place to live.

Recently, I happened to walk near the cottage, and it was indeed because I broke a flower on the tree, and I was caught by the owner of the village in the mountain and trapped in this prison for several days. The matter is irrelevant, so I will not mention it for the time being.

The owner of the village said: "Although this Ji Gongzi is not from a noble family, he has a noble character and is versatile, which is really rare." Since he didn't have any necessary place to go, it was better to leave him to live in this village and teach his little girl to read and learn calligraphy. Although we don't rob houses and houses like ordinary thieves on weekdays, we do a lot of evil, but after all, we are still grassy people, so naturally we can't expect our daughter to be everyone's best girl. But if someone teaches, it would be good to read more sage books, and maybe she can change her arrogant temper. ”

I thought that only I had such an idea, but I didn't expect Mrs. North to agree with him, so after discussion, she decided that she must keep him, even if she was tied up like before, she had to stay!

Knowing what he said, Bei Ran looked confused, and was very puzzled by Bei Qingteng's inexplicable proposal: obviously turned her into a thief, and didn't teach her more martial arts skills to walk the rivers and lakes, so that she could dominate the situation and dominate the party, but she just wanted her to know books and etiquette, let her read and learn calligraphy, and learn from the scholarly lady who couldn't fight back and scolded her in the boudoir, and she was dyed with a sour smell. Isn't this a paradox, putting the cart before the horse?

In fact, as early as before, when Bei Ran first found out that her father had this intention, she had raised this question, but at that time her father said: "You know a fart." Bandits also have a temperament. ”

However, she was still young at the time, racking her brains to assemble and piece together all the Chinese characters she had seen, and she didn't understand what the hell "temperament" was.

Later, when she got older, she didn't bother to reason with her father about anything, even if she did, it wouldn't end well. Because even if she eats for another ten years, her fists will not be bigger or harder than her father's. And in this place where it is reasonable to define whoever has a hard fist, her father is undoubtedly the authority here.

Until now, although it is strange in my heart, this method can make Ji Changkong stay, and the left and right are not the taste and gradually put away the feelings of resistance.

Ji Changkong's face was embarrassed, and he said: "Beizhai Lord, thank you for your kindness, but I have been wandering for many years, and I am used to being free and idle, so I am afraid that I will not be able to stay here." ”

Beiqingteng said: "Although the travel is good, there is no place to stay, and it seems a little bleak." There are so many people in our village that it's better than not having anyone to talk to in our spare time. And if the days are long, when the son feels tired of staying in this mountain, he will go again, and then the old man will no longer force it. ”

After saying that, he gave Bei Ran a look, and Bei Ran immediately understood, and hurriedly ran to Ji Changkong's side, and sat down beside him with a smiling face. It's adding tea again, and wiping the dishes, and I've been busy for a while.

Ji Changkong glanced at her, turned his head to Bei Qingteng and said, "The owner of the village, I really don't hide it." It's not that I don't want to teach Miss to read and write, but I'm only shallow in learning, and it's okay to teach a few years old. ”

Bei Qingteng said with a smile: "Childe doesn't have to be humble, the ancients said, there is poetry and calligraphy in the belly, I see that Childe is like this, he must be knowledgeable." Besides, my little girl has never gone to school, and she only knows some commonly used words and phrases, which is no different from a child of several years, so it must not be difficult for a child to teach. ”

Hearing this, Bei Ran had mixed feelings in his heart. It looked like her dad was trying to keep him for her, which was a good thing, but he described himself like that, and she really didn't know whether she should cry or laugh.

Ji Changkong saw that the owner of the village had to keep himself, so he said something that was still more obscure before, and said: "I think Miss is lively and innocent, why stick to this feudal tradition, you have to read poetry and books to make the best use of it." It's better to let her be free and easy, and follow the true temperament of her heart, which may not be a good thing. ”

The implication of this is that she is not a reader.

At this time, Bei Qingteng was anxious, and hurriedly said: "The little girl is stubborn, I know it, and I am trying my best to make her correct, but don't dislike her because of this." If the son is afraid that she will be too out of step and will not listen to the teachings, he will tie her up and not give her food; If it doesn't work, you break her leg so that she can't run or jump. ”

Bei Ran suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and a chill poured from his waist to the top of his head, and his gums trembled a few times.

Wouldn't that be too ruthless?

Ji Changkong wanted to say something, but Bei Ran took the first step to stop him. He whispered to him viciously:

"If you still want to see your goldfish appear in front of you intact, you will agree. Otherwise....... ”

With the sound of a sharp weapon cutting through the air, an orange placed in front of him instantly split apart, and the chopstick that was inserted into it was broken in two.

Seeing this scene, Ji Changkong's fingers on his lap shrank in an instant. He pursed his lips and reorganized his words in his mind before he spoke again.

The owner of the village laughed, why is it so serious, you still need to chop your hands and feet. It's not impossible to teach Miss to read and study, but I just hope that Miss will pay more attention in the future. ”

Hearing this, Beiran nodded with satisfaction and gave him an approving look.

Seeing that Bei Qingteng finally persuaded him to stay, he was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said: "That's certain, certain." North dye, don't hurry up and see Mr. ”

Kitazome said: "Yes"

Then he took a step back, lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt on the ground, put his hands together, then bent down and touched the ground, bowed respectfully, and said, "Hello sir." ”

The corners of Ji Changkong's mouth twitched, and he pointed to the table and said, "Take away the orange that you poked." ”

After saying that, Bei Dye really cleaned up the oranges immediately, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the juice that splashed around. Then he took the handkerchief in his hand and continued to kneel aside.

Seeing her very well-behaved appearance at the moment, Ji Changkong thought to himself, it shouldn't be so tricky.

But within a day, he realized that he was wrong.
