Chapter 136
Luo Wendi was also impulsive.
As soon as he got angry, he called Xue Shun over.
The two of them stared at each other, not knowing what to say.
Luo Wendi: ...
"How are you doing lately?"
"Thank you for your concern, my son is doing well."
"The people who serve you are also attentive, right?"
"With care."
"Want to go out for a walk?"
"ah?"
Xue Shun was stunned.
Luo Wendi also felt that her turn of events was a bit abrupt, but the words had already been spoken and she couldn't swallow them back, so she simply continued:
"It's boring to stay stuck in the village all day. Mother wants to take you out for a walk, to explore the world and broaden your horizons. What do you think?"
Xue Shun wanted to say it was not very good, but he couldn't refuse.
"Brothers, do you want to go together?"
He asked hesitantly.
Luo Wendi shook his head:
"No, I'll just take you."
Luo Wendi originally wanted to bring his cat son along, but thinking about the grudge between Xuan Tong and Xue Shun, he decided to give up.
Xue Shun was even more confused after she said that, but he didn't care about these things as much as before. He immediately agreed, "Of course I'm willing. May I ask mother, where are we going? When will we set off? Once I know, I can make preparations early."
Luo Wendi was feeling a little disappointed, but seeing Xue Shun seemed very excited, she didn't want to spoil his fun and said, "I was thinking of going to Linhai County, but there's nothing to do there. Is there anywhere you'd like to go?"
Xue Shun pursed his lips and said a little embarrassedly: "My son wants to go to Jiangnan Road... I heard that the climate there is pleasant and the scenery is beautiful."
"Then you must have heard wrongly. It's scorching hot over there, and it rains a lot. You can't even hang clothes out to dry. It's not as good as here. However, Jiangnan has been prosperous since ancient times, and there are indeed many sights to see and places to visit. It's just a little chaotic. Get ready, we'll leave today."
"Leaving today?" Xue Shun was surprised and happy, but he couldn't help but think, "My family is in this state now, it's not a good time to go out and have fun, right?"
"What's wrong with that? Just go if you're asked to. Someone else will take care of those things. Go back and clean up."
Luo Wendi didn't have much patience to explain to him, so he just waved his hand and sent Xue Shun away.
Xue Shun: "Yes... Mother, can I take two people with me?"
"It's okay if you want to bring everyone with you. By the way, bring Mr. Song as well..." Luo Wendi said halfway when he realized that this was Xue Shun, not Xue Lang.
Xue Shun suppressed his sadness and said, "Mother, did you ask me to bring Mr. Song with me?"
"It's up to you. If you don't want to take it, remember to say goodbye to Mr.
Luo Wendi said it nonchalantly, as if he didn't care much.
Xue Shun knew that a diligent and good son would invite the teacher to join him without his mother's instructions, but he was embarrassed because he was probably not a diligent and good son.
Not only did he not want to invite Mr. Song to join him, he didn't even dare to go by himself to say goodbye. He could only hide outside quietly and watch Qiongzhi go in and talk.
Then he walked over and asked nervously, "How is it? Did the master curse?"
"No," Qiongzhi said, "The master knew that the young master was outside, and he said he was too lazy to scold him and just told him not to forget his homework."
Xue Shun was annoyed: "I should have listened to Shen Jiao earlier. I should have stayed away from her."
Qiongzhi looked at him with sympathy: "Mr. Song knew that the young master would say this. He told me to tell the young master that it's useless for you to hide away. All your homework will be doubled."
Xue Shun: ...
"Why didn't you remind me of such an important matter?"
Qiongzhi: "I do want to, but Mr. Song can hear it."
A wrinkled head like a walnut spirit poked out of the door and said leisurely, "Double the price, and your ghostwriter has to write it too."
Xue Shun: Shen Jiao!
"What does this have to do with me?!"
When Shen Jiao heard about this, he was shocked. What does it mean when disaster strikes while you are still at home?
This is what happens when you are at home and disaster strikes.
And—"When did Mr. Song know about this? Didn't he never read it?"
Shen Jiao cast a suspicious look at Qiongzhi.
"I didn't say that," Qiongzhi's face was filled with anger and no guilt. "I'm not you, how can I be that bad?"
"Okay." Shen Jiao curled her lips, looking like she didn't believe it at all.
Qiongzhi yelled angrily, "What do you mean by that?"
"What do you mean?"
"Just like you did just now!"
"What?"
Shen Jiao's pretense of stupidity almost pissed Qiongzhi off.
Xue Shun knew that their relationship had been quite complicated recently, so he didn't want to interrupt.
Seeing that Qiongzhi was truly defeated, Shen Jiao was extremely happy and finally spoke to dissuade her, "Alright, stop arguing. It's been a while since we last met. Even if Qiongzhi said something, you wouldn't believe it right away. I believe her."
"Young Master!" Qiongzhi sniffed with emotion.
Shen Jiao blinked: "I believe you too."
"Go away!" Qiongzhi angrily pushed her and walked away twisting her foot. Halfway through, she came back and took out a book and said,
"I almost forgot, everything Mr. Song asked you to write is on this."
"It doesn't look like much."
Xue Shun took it and flipped through two pages, but he no longer thought so. The contents of the first few pages of the book had been scribbled over and looked very familiar, mostly the homework he had done. The lines at the end were all unfamiliar.
Xue Shun raised the book in his hand with a stiff face and asked, "Mr. Song wants me to write a book?" "And double it, double it again."
Qiongzhi hadn't figured it out yet. Should she double it again and again, double it once or twice, or double it twice? Should she write it three times or four times...
She just repeated it sympathetically, then looked at Shen Jiao with a gloating look: "You have to write it too."
Shen Jiao: ...
"Just keep writing. Learning is endless. Learning more is my blessing."
Shen Jiao didn't give Qiongzhi a chance to vent his anger at all. Only after he knew she had left did he say weakly, "Sir, this is too much. We need to find someone else to write for us."
Xue Shun's face turned bitter: "You wrote it so similarly and it was seen through. I'm afraid anyone else would be exposed too."
"Let's give it a try. What if this time it's because of a traitor?"
Shen Jiao didn't believe Qiongzhi at all. Her sister hated her. She fell down on flat ground and didn't realize that it was her own unstable footing, but she had to blame her. If there was a chance to make trouble, would she not say it?
Shen Jiao doesn't think so anyway.
Xue Shun said noncommittally: "If you can find a cheap one, buy one."
"What's there to be afraid of? Maybe we'll have money when we get there anyway." Shen Jiao said indifferently.
Xue Shun glared at her and said, "Keep your voice down. How can you say this openly? It's not glorious."
Xue Shun felt guilty when he thought about it.
Shen Jiao would not provoke him at this time, and immediately covered her mouth: "This servant has spoken out of turn, so I will go and ask Doctor Wei to come?"
"Well, tell him to prepare well. I still have to go say goodbye to my father and leave as soon as I get back."
This was not ordered by Luo Wendi, but added by Xue Shun himself.
