Three Hundred and Twelve: 3 Years in Langya (12)

Wei Ci looked at Jiang Pengji blankly, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. 』ＷｗΔＷ. LieWen. CC

When it comes to who he is most afraid of seeing during this period, the person in front of him definitely ranks high on the list.

The scene he saw the day before yesterday was still echoing in his mind, making him unable to calm down no matter what he did. He would always wake up from nightmares at midnight, soaking his inner clothes with sweat. I was tossing and turning like this yesterday and couldn't sleep.

He didn't have much appetite when he woke up in the morning. He just ate some white cake, and his eyes were a little green. People who didn't know it would have thought how unpalatable this white cake was. Lu Zheng could eat two more bowls of rice just looking at Wei Ci's face. , he also made me lose my appetite today.

Before he could complain, Mr. Yuan Jing, who was approaching the bamboo slips with narrowed eyes, suddenly spoke.

"Zixiao, there is a distinguished guest waiting at the door. Please go out and pick him up."

Wei Ci didn't know why, but looking at Yuan Jing's slightly narrowed eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart.

There is an ominous feeling.

Whispering to himself.

When he saw Jiang Pengji getting off the carriage, she felt a slight stomachache, as if the white cake she had just eaten was tumbling in her stomach.

Jiang Pengji stepped forward and greeted Wei Ci without seeming to notice the strange expression on her face.

"Zixiao, we will be classmates in the future. If I have done anything wrong in the past, please forgive me for the sake of Xi Shang's young age. Xi Shang is not very good at talking, and people often misunderstand him. I hope Zixiao will not be separated from Xisheng because of this."

Wei Ci nodded, not daring to say more.

He didn't believe the modesty of the person in front of him. This person had always been willful and willful, and she would do whatever she wanted. If she said something like - [I'm not very good at talking, hit me if you don't accept it], he would I believe that he can't beat the opponent anyway.

Jiang Pengji didn't care about his attitude and raised her hand to untie the cloak. Wei Ci saw this action and subconsciously took a step back.

The two of them were silent for a moment.

Jiang Pengji remembered something, Chunliang smiled, and handed the cloak to Taxue who was following behind.

Wei Ci's slightly relieved expression was not missed. She whispered as she passed by him.

"That day I lent my cloak to Zixiao to keep out the cold.

Although it's not worth much, it's one that Xi likes very much. "Jiang Pengji opened her eyes and told lies. Wei Ci seemed to be facing a formidable enemy. She smiled softly and said, "I wonder if I can go to Zixiao's room to get it later..."

Before she could finish her words, Wei Ci seemed to have exploded. He took a long step and walked very fast, looking frightened.

Facing Ta Xue and Xu Ke who looked like they were seeing ghosts, Jiang Pengji shrugged her shoulders, looking like a scoundrel.

Xu Ke was dumbfounded and couldn't believe that the guy who just made such a mocking comment was actually his husband?

When did you develop the habit of cutting off your sleeves?

As if she could see what was going on in his heart, Jiang Pengji said, "You don't look as good as him, so why are you so worried?"

Xu Ke: "..."

Should he be happy that he is safe, or sad that his face has been picked on?

Instead, he stepped on the snow. Apart from being a little stunned at first, he quickly regained his composure.

She raised her hand to cover her lips, sneered and joked.

"Our husband has grown up too."

After the spring comes, Liu Xi will be thirteen. At this time, those who are involved should get married, and those who are not involved should also get engaged.

Xu Ke secretly rolled his eyes.

Jiang Pengji answered meaningfully, "Yes, you have grown up."

After meeting Mr. Yuan Jing and performing the apprenticeship ceremony, Jiang Pengji is considered a student of Langya Academy and can study in the academy in the future.

"Who is this?"

Mr. Yuan Jing smiled kindly and moved his gaze from Jiang Pengji to Xu Ke.

"His name is Xu Ke, and he is a student accompanying him to study."

Xu Ke was extremely nervous, like a prisoner waiting for trial, nervous and uneasy, for fear that Mr. Yuan Jing would be dissatisfied with him.

"It is a good seedling and a great talent. You all should get up."

Mr. Yuan Jing is like a kind elder, making people feel close to him.

"Lanting, have you used your breakfast? Do you want to eat something with the old man?"

There are two plates of white cakes placed in front of Mr. Yuan Jing's table, and there is a tea stove boiling hot tea next to it. There is a slight sweet fragrance in the air.

Xu Ke was completely stunned. He had never thought that Mr. Yuan Jing, who had the reputation of Jiuzhou, could be so... down-to-earth?

Generally speaking, Mr. Yuan Jing has given an invitation. Even if he has already eaten, he still has to say that he has never eaten.

However, Jiang Pengji doesn't play her cards right, and she speaks out.

"have eaten."

Mr. Yuan Jing did not expose Jiang Pengji's lie, and turned to Xu Ke, "You ate it too?"

Xu Ke continued to look confused and shook his head. For some reason, Mr. Yuan Jing pulled him into eating the cake.

White cake is a common breakfast food in Langya area, but Mr. Yuanjing has a unique taste. He eats white cake with fragrant tea.

There are a lot of spices in the fragrant tea, which has a weird taste, while the white cake is eaten with honey...

In short, this way of eating is equivalent to dipping lychees in soy sauce. Jiang Pengji is grateful but not sensitive.

Xu Ke was quite happy at first, but after eating a meal, his stomach felt uncomfortable.

Jiang Pengji had expected it and looked at Xu Ke's bitter expression as if she was watching a good show.

"Tsk, tsk, you are still eating randomly, now you have learned a lesson, right?"

She had a keen sense of smell, and after analyzing the ingredients of the seasoning in the pot of tea, she knew to stay away, but Xu Ke stepped forward.

"How could Ke know... Mr.'s tea-making skills? Such..."

He simply didn't know what words to use to describe it.

Jiang Pengji smiled and said, "Mr. Yuan Jing's tea-making skills are fine, but the old man has a strong taste and a bad stomach, so the tea he makes must be more digestive. You were born in Zisang County, and the food there is light, so you can't stand it."

Xu Ke smacked his lips, and there seemed to be an indescribable strange taste in his mouth.

Although he was flattered to have breakfast with his idol, it was better to eat less of this dark cuisine.

Jiang Pengji said, "Help to pack up, Mr. Yuan Jing and his friends will leave for Langya at noon today."

"So soon?" Xu Ke was stunned. He thought he could stay in the house for a day or two.

"Not soon, they have already wasted a lot of time in Shangjing." Jiang Pengji shook her head disappointedly and said, "In the morning, my father told me that the court had no time to arrange the destination of this batch of scholars for the time being, so they were asked to return to their hometowns and wait for the imperial decree."

Their reasons were also very ready. They were busy with building relationships with the northern border and the marriage of the second prince. How could they care about other trivial matters?

Little did they know that most of these scholars were arrogant people. With such a cold treatment of their ambitions, they probably didn't want to serve as officials in the court.

Not everyone likes the intrigues in the officialdom. Instead of fighting in the officialdom, it is better to be a celebrity and still be famous all over the world.

A young man who looked familiar walked through the corridor, came to the hall, and saluted Yuan Jing.

"Teacher, the carriages and dry food are ready."

Mr. Yuan Jing stood up, pounded his numb legs, and said, "Let Youmo and the others prepare, let's go."
