Chapter 173 Salary
"Brother Zhuang, Xuanxuan won three copper coins!" Bai Xuan bouncingly held up the three copper coins in his hand to show Chu Zhuang.
"Yeah, Xuanxuan is really good! The two younger brothers Guo Wen and Guo Wu are also good!" Chu Zhuang knelt down, stroked his hair, and praised them with a smile.
Guo Wu was a little embarrassed, feeling that he was not worthy of Chu Zhuang's praise, and secretly made up his mind that he must work hard tomorrow and get the same amount of copper coins as his brother, so that he would be worthy of Chu Zhuang's praise!
This was the first time in Bai Xuan's life that he made money by himself. Looking at the copper coins in his hand, he happily put them into his small purse.
"Okay, we played all day today, we should go home now." Chu Zhuang said to Bai Xuan: "Xuan Xuan, say goodbye to your good friend."
Chu Zhuang really wanted to let Bai Xuan stay for a while longer, but it was going to be dark soon, and the city gate was about to be closed, so there was no way
Continue to stay longer.
"Ah?" Hearing that Chu Zhuang said that he was going to leave, Bai Xuan puffed up his cheeks and felt sullen, obviously he didn't want to be separated from his two new friends.
Seeing that Bai Xuan was about to leave, Guo Wen and Guo Wu's eyes were full of reluctance.
"It's getting late today, Xuanxuan is going back to sleep, and the little brothers Guo Wen and Guo Wu are also going back to rest, shall we come back tomorrow and continue playing?" Chu Zhuang persuaded patiently.
Now the date when Chu Zhuang will leave home is getting closer and closer, and Guo Wen and Guo Wu will also leave at that time.
Chu Zhuang felt sorry for Bai Xuan, so he thought that during the time he was still here, he would try his best to take Bai Xuan out to play and make more friends, so that Bai Xuan would not be alone after they all left.
"Can Xuanxuan come over tomorrow?!" Bai Xuan looked at Chu Zhuang excitedly and asked.
"Well! Brother Zhuang will send Xuanxuan over to play tomorrow, okay?" Chu Zhuang nodded and asked with a smile.
Bai Xuan's originally listless eyes were filled with light in an instant, he nodded repeatedly and said in response: "Okay, okay! Xuanxuan will come over tomorrow to play with Brother Wen and Brother Wu!"
There are not only friends here who can work and play together, but also earn coins. Bai Xuan feels that there is no more fun place than here.
"Then say goodbye to the two little brothers now." Chu Zhuang said, nodding the tip of Bai Xuan's nose.
Bai Xuan looked at Guo Wen and Guo Wu, and reluctantly said: "Brother Wen, Brother Wu, then Xuanxuan is leaving first, Xuanxuan will come to play with you tomorrow, don't forget that Xuanxuan is here!"
"Yeah, we won't forget, we'll be waiting for Xuanxuan to come over in the nursery tomorrow!" Guo Wen and Guo Wu looked at each other and immediately nodded in response.
Seeing that the two parties had finished saying goodbye, Chu Zhuang picked up Bai Xuan, looked at Xue Qing and said, "Doctor Xue, I really troubled you today, so let's take our leave first."
"Master Chu, be careful on the road."
Xue Qing took Guo Wen and Guo Wu to stand at the door and watched Chu Zhuang's party leave, until the carriage was nowhere to be seen, Xue Qing said: "Okay, let's go back too."
"Okay, Grandpa Xue."
Guo Wen led Guo Wu and followed Xue Qing, took two steps, looked at the dark night behind him with some reluctance, then turned and left.
"Huh? Where's Brother Mengxi?"
After getting into the carriage, Bai Xuan realized that Yunmengxi was gone, and immediately looked at Chu Zhuang and asked.
"Brother Mengxi's brothers are here, so he is going to his brother's place now." Chu Zhuang explained to Bai Xuan.
"Oh, that's it." Bai Xuan blinked and leaned into Chu Zhuang's arms, and asked, "When will Brother Mengxi come back?"
what? "
Although he has a new friend, Bai Xuan still wants to play with Yunmengxi.
"It will take a while." Chu Zhuang said with a slight sigh. With Yun Zhanfei and Yunhong around, it is obviously impossible for Yunmengxi to come back to live in Bai's house.
Go back to Bai Mansion, finish dinner with Bai Xuan, let the nanny take him down to rest, Chu Zhuang waits in the study for Bai Jingting to come back
On the treetops of the moon, Bai Jingting finally came back, and he went directly to the study.
"Zhuang'er, the butler said that you need me for something?" Bai Jingting asked directly.
Chu Zhuang nodded, poured a cup of hot water for Bai Jingting, and said, "Uncle, I want to talk to you about Mengxi's life experience."
Bai Jingting was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Chu Zhuang in puzzlement. Isn't this Yunmengxi the Shuang'er that he bought?
What is his background?
Chu Zhuang sighed slightly, and told Bai Jingting about Yunmengxi's previous experience and life experience.
"Now Mengxi's two elder brothers have been found, and they are staying in the inn right now."
Chu Zhuang looked at Bai Jingting and said, "Uncle, after a while, I will set off with them on the road to Dongfeng Mansion."
"Is it okay for you to be with them? After all, they are from the General's Mansion, with a noble status..." Bai Jingting pursed his lips, his face full of worry.
Such a sudden change in Yunmengxi's identity made Bai Jingting unable to accept it for a while.
The threshold of the General's Mansion was too high for a small businessman like Bai Jingting, he was worried that the other party would not allow Chuzhuang and Yunmengxi to be together.
"It's okay, Uncle, you believe me, I will definitely be in high school, and then I will marry Mengxi here in a glorious manner." Chu Zhuang smiled and said confidently.
Bai Jingting glanced at Chu Zhuang, sighed and said, "Uncle has no ability to take care of your affairs, but since you've already made up your mind, go ahead and do it. Uncle will always support you."
"Thank you uncle." Hearing Bai Jingting's words, Chu Zhuang felt warm in his heart.
"Are you sure when you are going to leave?" Bai Jingting asked suddenly.
"It's still snowing now, we'll go on the road after the snow melts." Chu Zhuang thought for a while and said.
It was snowing and the road conditions were bad, and we had to bring two children, Xue Qing and Guo Wen and Guo Wu, and we had to wait for the weather to improve before we could go on the road.
"En." Bai Jingting nodded, looking at Chu Zhuang in front of him, his eyes were full of relief, as soon as he passed this imperial examination, Chu Zhuang would be able to soar into the sky!
"Remember to go to Chu's house to see your father when you pass by Jiqing Mansion, don't let people gossip." Bai Jingting reminded.
After all, Chu Lianqing was Chu Zhuang's biological father. If Chu Zhuang didn't even visit the Chu family when he passed by, people would say that Chu Zhuang was unfilial if they found out.
Chu Zhuang squinted his eyes, thinking of Chu Lianqing and Sima Lianhe from Jiqing Mansion, a dark light flashed in his eyes, he nodded slightly, and said, "Don't worry, uncle, I will go."
After chatting briefly with Bai Jingting, Chu Zhuang went back to his room.
Looking at the empty room, Chu Zhuang was filled with melancholy. If it was the past, at this time, Yunmengxi would definitely be by his side, but now he is alone.
Yunmengxi's face appeared in Chu Zhuang's mind, he sighed slightly and muttered: "I haven't come so late, it seems that Mengxi didn't find a chance to come out."
Chu Zhuang simply washed up and got on the cold bed.
Inside the inn.
"Second Brother, why did we stay?" Yun Zhanfei didn't ask much when he was in the county government just now, but now when he returned to the inn and there were only them alone, he couldn't wait to ask Yun Hong immediately.
Yunmengxi was also confused at the moment, not understanding why they suddenly said they would not leave, and looked at Yunhong curiously.
Yunhong glanced at Yun Zhanfei, sighed slightly, and told them about Chu Zhuang's plan to teach them the art of war.
"Then you stay here, and I can take Mengxi back. Why do we have to stay together?" Yun Zhanfei asked puzzledly after thinking about it.
"Big Brother!" Yun Mengxi clenched his fists, looked at Yun Zhanfei dissatisfied and said, "If you want to leave, you will go alone, and I will stay with Second Brother!"
"Accompany the second younger brother? Hehe! I think he is staying with someone!" Yun Zhanfei looked at Yunmengxi and directly pierced his thoughts.
"I just stayed to accompany Chu Zhuang, what's the matter!" Yunmengxi said angrily with puffed up cheeks.
When Yunhong heard the quarrel between the two, he shook his head helplessly. The two had been arguing since childhood, but the relationship between the two was as noisy as possible, and he didn't know what was going on.
"Okay, stop arguing." Yunhong stopped the two of them, then looked at Yun Zhanfei and said, "Brother, do you think that if Mengxi doesn't stay, Chu Zhuang will be willing to teach me the art of war?"
This Chu Zhuang was willing to teach Yunhong the art of war just to keep Yunmengxi behind!
Otherwise, why would he do so much.
Do you have nothing to do when you are full?
"Ah?" Yun Zhanfei took a while to react, scratched his head embarrassingly, smiled awkwardly and said, "So that's how it is!"
"That's right!" Yunmengxi made a face at Yun Zhanfei, and said, "Brother is a big idiot!"
"Yunmengxi, are you looking for a beating?!" How could Yun Zhanfei, with such a temper, endure Yunmengxi's provocation, and immediately rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach him a lesson.
"Are you going to fight? Who is afraid of whom!" Yun Mengxi also rolled up his sleeves, ready to fight with Yun Zhanfei to avenge his bullying Chu Zhuang today!
"Stop it both of you!"
The veins on Yunhong's forehead bulged, and he looked at the two angrily and said, "How old are you, and you still fight?! Are you trying to piss me off?!"
Yun Zhanfei and Yunmengxi shrank their necks when they saw Yunhong getting angry, and stood obediently where they were being scolded.
"Second brother, I was wrong."
"Second brother, I was wrong."
The two apologized in unison, and looked at Yunhong cautiously.
Yunhong snorted coldly, looked at Yun Zhanfei and said, "Brother, tomorrow I will learn the art of war with me, and I want to see what art of war Chu Zhuang is going to teach us!"
"Oh, good!" Yun Zhanfei is not interested in going to school, but if he is learning the art of war, he is still interested in listening to it.
Yunmengxi said urgently: "Second brother, I want to go too, and I want to learn the art of war!"
"You stay in the inn obediently and you are not allowed to go anywhere!" Yun Hong snorted coldly.
Although he agreed to keep Yunmengxi, it doesn't mean that he is willing to let Chuzhuang and Yunmengxi meet before their marriage.
meeting.
"Why!" Yunmengxi pouted and looked at Yunhong dissatisfiedly and asked.
"We are here to learn the art of war, what are you doing there?" Yunhong asked coldly.
"I also went to learn the art of war..." Yunmengxi rubbed his nose and said with a guilty conscience.
"Heh! After staying with Chu Zhuang for a long time, this liar seems to be talking about it." Yunhong said with a mocking smile, his lips raised.
Yunmengxi actually said this? !
Wouldn't he be embarrassed?
"Hmph, second brother is also a big villain!"
Yunmengxi's mind was pierced, and she became angry from embarrassment, and rushed out of the room angrily.
"Go back to the room! Let me know that you are not in the room later, hum!"
Yunhong's threatening voice came from behind Yunmengxi.
Yunmengxi, who was going to run to find Chuzhuang, turned around and walked to the next room.
