Chapter 61: There is a Difference Between Noble and Low
Zhu Lingbo changed into plain clothes and was in good spirits, but his face was pale and he still looked sick. When he saw Xu You who was tall and tall, he looked a little pretty blush. He said to Gu Yun first: "I forced Lianhua to beg him. Brother Feiqing, don't blame her!"
Gu Yun and Zhu Lingbo have been familiar with each other since childhood. They love Zhu's sister very much and smiled and said, "No, it's just that the wind is cold at night. You are not well-behaved yet. Wear more clothes when you go out."
"Well, thank you brother Feiqing, Ling Bo understand!"
Zhu Lingbo agreed obediently, then turned to look at Xu You. His smart and beautiful eyes were fixed on his face. His voice was like a yellow oriole coming out of the valley, green and verdant, revealing the unique lightness and shyness of youth, and said, "Langjun Xu, thanking you for your rescue that day, Lingbo had not had time to thank him yet. It was so rude."
Xu You smiled slightly and said, "Feiqing and I are good friends. We can rescue you from the thief. It is God's blessing. As for thanking or something, don't be dissatisfied, and don't take it to heart."
He spoke without rushing and slowing down, and the smile on the corners of his lips seemed to warm the cold wind throughout the winter. Zhu Lingbo thought to himself that the rumors were indeed unreliable. He was not a vulgar and rude martial artist. He was clearly a gentle and elegant young man, and he was not at all like the sixth brother.
"Lingbo, Lingbo?"
"ah?"
Zhu Lingbo realized that he had been watching Xu You for too long, and it was already a bit confusing. Looking at Gu Yun's eyes with a smirk, she was originally a weird person, so she would not feel embarrassed. She showed a cunning look between her eyebrows and said, "Brother Fu Tian, when did he become a single insect?"
Gu Yun immediately said with a bitter face, "You are still the temperament of your childhood!"
Xu You was afraid that Zhu Lingbo would be embarrassed, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Brother Fu Tian? Is Fei Qing's other name?"
Zhu Lingbo smiled and said, "Don't look at the majestic Gu Ming Mansion now, but when he was young, he was quite obsessed with studying. One day, the teacher taught Mao poetry and read the sentence "Zhuobi Fu Tian, get ten thousand a year." Without waiting for the teacher's explanation, he immediately said that what kind of fertile land can harvest ten million harbors of grain at a year is simply ignorant. I was only three years old at that time, and happened to be visiting Gu Ming Mansion, so he told Gu Ming Mansion that the word "ten thousand" means a lot, not the real ten thousand. He blushed at that time, and he hid after seeing me for a long time. It was so funny!"
What else can Gu Yun say? This embarrassing thing is an eternal pain in his heart. From time to time, Zhu Lingbo asked to joke, saying, "You are just weird. When you are happy, you call Brother Feiqing. When you are unhappy, you immediately become Brother Fu Tian. You also have a worm in the room. That is a poem written by a resentful woman missing her husband. A young girl who is not married, is she ashamed or not?"
After Zhu Lingbo held his hands, he sighed playfully and said, "Even the saints said: "The Book of Songs" is three hundred, and in a word, he said: I think of it without evil! Brother Putian has now made the Ming Mansion, and when it comes to Mao's poems, he is still a little crazy!"
Fortunately, Xu You read the 300 chapters of the Book of Songs, otherwise he would not even know what the two of them were talking about. For example, the single insects describe the chirping of grasshoppers, which comes from "The Book of Songs? Grass and Warmth": single insects, a gaze, and a gaze. No gentleman was seen, and he was worried. This poem describes love affairs between men and women, which is bold, straightforward and explicit. In the dynasty with a strong atmosphere, men and women can talk openly in public without feeling lewd.
It is rare to see Gu Yun get defeated, and Xu You adds oil to the fire, saying, "What Zhu girl said is that although the grass insect poem is about missing a wife and thinking of the man in the distance, it is actually a metaphor for the king and the minister. Fei Qing floats on the surface and neglects the inner world. It is indeed a bit foolish!"
Zhu Lingbo blinked his eyes, was inexplicably surprised and said, "It's whimpering, I'm asking for his friend's voice. Xu Langjun is actually Lingbo's confidant!"
The whimpering sounds, asking for the voice of his friends is a classic sentence about friendship in the Book of Songs. This girl is beautiful and has a good talent, but she is too tempted and dares to say anything. Xu You began to feel a headache. His identity is sensitive and he is not good at talking too much with the girl of Zhu. He looked at Gu Yun for help. Gu Yun understood his mood. After all, he was also a person who had experienced it. He said angrily: "Okay, okay, I know that you, Mao Shi, are better than me, don't show off anymore. I don't know who saw someone just now, and he was stupid. He looks much more foolish than me!"
Xu You couldn't bear it anymore and covered his mouth and coughed twice. He didn't open the pot and picked up the pot. He finally turned over the page just now, but after a round trip, he returned to the original place.
Seeing Xu You coughing hard, Zhu Lingbo was probably frightened. He laughed and bowed seriously, saying, "I just lost my composure. I see that my husband is very different from the rumors. Therefore, I am distracted. I hope I will forgive you!"
The best way to do this is to pretend that you don’t know and fool you into doing it. But Zhu Lingbo apologized so formally, whether it was deliberately teasing Xu You or his urgent intelligence in the school exam, because of this situation, it seems inappropriate for Xu You to deal with it.
However, his greatest ability is to resolve all kinds of embarrassment, and he smiled and said, "It's okay, when I first came to Wujun from Yixing, I often stared at people, thinking about what kind of water and soil can raise the people of Zhong Yu and Shenxiu in Wujun. The girl probably has never been to Yixing. We Yixing people have all grown into my vicious honor. Although I look at it hurts my eyes, I actually get used to it after watching it for a long time!"
Gu Yun smiled and said, Xu You were so joking. He knew it for a long time, but whenever he heard him talking nonsense, he still felt it was fun. Zhu Lingbo had never met such a person before, and he immediately laughed and fell backwards, without a little ladylike demeanor. If Lianhua hadn't been supporting him, he would have fallen to the ground and laughed.
Xu You still has a lot of things to do, but he didn't want to delay too long in the county government office. He said a few more words and said goodbye and left. Before leaving, Zhu Lingbo chased him out and asked, "Who is the sister who held me in her arms that day? Can I see her again?"
"Her name is Xu Qiufen, and she is my eunuch. If the girl has free time, she can come to Jingyuan in Xicheng to sit down. The autumnal equinox will definitely welcome you to visit!"
"Xu Qiufen...a strange name..."
Zhu Lingbo's eyes were bent into crescent moons and said, "Brother Weizhi, I will go to Jingyuan to find the autumnal equinox in a few days. Wouldn't you not welcome me, right?"
Xu You shivered and said, "No...No!"
After leaving the county government office, Zuo Ting came up and said, "Mr. Lang, is it okay?"
"It's okay, I'm having some trouble, and it took a while. Have you figured out the people outside?"
Zuo Yu accompanied Xu You to the county government and found some unknown people around him, so he stayed outside to investigate the truth and whispered: "There are about thirty people, and their martial arts skills are good. They occupy the surrounding high places and have a broad vision. They can strictly control all roads entering and leaving the county government government. They have strict orders and tight defenses. They should be the elite of Gu's family."
Xu You looked along the undulating eaves toward a hidden darkness across the street. If nothing unexpected happened, there was a Gu family's group hidden there. Maybe he could feel Xu You's gaze, and he hid in it quietly, but accidentally broke a piece of green tiles, which was like a thunderclap in the quiet night sky.
Almost instantly, the black shadow disappeared, and another position was changed. The entire defense network was finely tuned around this point, and still strictly controlled all routes around the county government.
"No one dares to take it lightly in Yangzhou's chaos. Gu Yun is the only thing that is to strengthen his vigilance!" Xu You smiled and said, "What's more, Zhu Lingbo has definitely left many people here to recuperate. There is no safer place in Qiantang than the county government!"
People are so angry that people are so angry that they look back at the county government gate with envy, and said, "If Jingyuan has so many plots..."
“There will be!”
On the road, I met a patrolman at night. Xu You showed the sign given to him by Gu Yun. This sign could freely walk on the street during a curfew. When passing by an alley, I found a little beggar on the side of the road. I was curled up on the side of the road, with only a few pieces of rags covering my body. My hair was scattered and covered my cheeks. I couldn't see my face clearly, but the frostbite on my hands was almost rotten, and I could smell the stench on my body several meters away.
The bright moon hangs high in the sky, and there is a difference between the noble and the humble on earth.
The wine and meat smell bad in the rich family, and the bones are frozen to death on the road,
Whose fault?
Xu You stopped and said, "Did you bring the money?"
Zuo Tiao touched his wallet and said, "It's only fifty or sixty dollars..."
"Give it all to me!"
Zuo Qi put the entire wallet into Xu You's hand, stared at the little beggar and said, "Mr. Lang, I have never seen a beggar here before."
Xu You understood what he meant, but did not hesitate. He walked to the beggar and gently placed his purse on the ground. He kept guarding the left and right hand, and held the hilt of the sword in his right hand. As long as the other party had abnormal movements, he could kill him immediately.
An Yao has always been a huge shadow shrouding Zuo Tu's heart, from Jinling to Qiantang, never dissipated!
The little beggar suddenly woke up and hid in the corner. His dark eyes were full of fear and anxiety about the whole world, and he looked at the sudden warm boy with vigilance.
Under the moonlight, Xu You's face seemed to emit a faint light!
"If you use this little money to buy a cotton jacket, and buy some medicine to treat the wound on your hands, it will be delayed and your fingers will not be protected, making it even harder to survive."
The little beggar seemed to understand it. It was not until Xu You and Zuo Qi disappeared at the end of the alley that he slowly walked over, picked up the purse on the ground, weighed it in his hand, knelt down, tears in his eyes, and bit his lower lip and kowtowed for a few times.
Zuo Qi quietly turned back, hid in the dark, witnessed all this with his own eyes, and finally let go of his doubts and turned around and left!
Back at Jingyuan, Xu You asked the autumnal equinox to call the winter solstice and asked, "I asked you to follow the Fengmen to inquire about Li Qingyu's information before, have there any progress?"
"I only got Li Qingyu's information a few days ago. This person is over fifty years old and from Yuyao, Kuaiji County. His wife died early and did not re-release. He started some tea business at first, and later started shipping. He went out to the sea several times and accumulated a lot of family business..."
