Chapter 148 When I feel sleepy, someone will send me a pillow



Xi Rui walked into the house with two other playboys.

Liang Youxiao was seen leisurely drinking tea and eating.

Xi Rui sat over and poured himself a cup of tea. "Brother Xiao, your legs weren't broken?"

Because of the Bai family's teahouse, Kung Fu tea has become popular in the capital.

Liang Youxiao raised his eyebrows, "Your legs weren't broken, so how could I?"

"Why did you think of coming to see me today?"

After he said that, he threw a few nougats to the three of them.

Xi Rui took one and put it in his mouth, his eyes lit up, "What kind of pastry is this? It tastes really good."

Liang Youxiao smiled and said, "It's not a cake, it's nougat."

Xi Rui was stunned for a moment, "Is this candy?"

He had only eaten malt sugar, brown sugar and yellow sugar, and had never eaten this kind of sugar.

Liang Youxiao nodded, "Not bad, if you like it, I'll have someone give you a pack to take home."

He had already purchased a batch of nougat, milk candy and fructose from Shi Qingluo, as well as vermicelli and sesame paste from Nanxi County.

However, he was traveling light and fast, as transporting goods by land would be much slower and would take several days to reach the capital.

Xi Rui likes to eat sweets.

He said nonchalantly, "Sure, give me an extra pack so I can take it back for my old lady to try."

As long as there is something that can be given to his grandmother and mother, he will not leave it out.

Therefore, no matter what happens outside or how angry his father is, he can still live a happy life.

"No problem." Liang Youxiao agreed with this point.

An old person in the family is like a treasure. Whether they will break their legs or not depends entirely on whether they can coax the old lady into good health.

Xi Rui quickly got to the point, "I heard you brought back some mahjong from outside, is it fun?"

Yesterday, Mr. Liang went to play mahjong with his grandfather.

At first, his grandfather was very disdainful and thought that playing with things was a waste of time.

But in the end, if it weren't for the persuasion of his family, his old man would actually want to drag the other three to play mahjong all night.

It also made him particularly curious about mahjong.

Liang Youxiao chuckled and said, "Of course it's fun, otherwise would my old lady and old man like it?"

"There are exactly four of us. I'll show you around a few times and you'll know."

Xi Rui came here just for this, "Then come quickly!"

So the four of them started playing mahjong.

There was relatively little entertainment in ancient times, so it was no surprise that Xi Rui and the other two also fell in love with mahjong.

Then Liang Youxiao took out a playing card and taught them how to play Landlord and Golden Flower.

Compared to Mahjong, Xi Rui prefers Poker and finds it more exciting, even though he has already lost several hundred taels of silver to Liang Youxiao.

In this way, Xi Rui went to Liang's house to play mahjong for several days in a row.

That day, after playing mahjong in the afternoon and having dinner, Liang Youxiao sent away several other playboys who had followed him.

Only he and Xi Rui were left.

Although Xi Rui is a playboy, he is not stupid. "Do you have something to say?"

Liang Youxiao smiled and said, "We haven't sat together and talked for a long time."

"I want to go into business, but my father won't let me. I'm so upset that I want you to tell me what's really on your mind."

Xi Rui gave him a helpless look, "This brother really can't help you. If I want to go into business, my father will probably give me a beating."

Liang Youxiao picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp, "Forget it, let's not talk about this troublesome matter."

He asked as if he had accidentally found a topic: "By the way, has your relationship with the Xiao family eased?"

Xi Rui curled his lips, "Easy ass."

He gets angry when this matter is mentioned.

Liang Youxiao smiled deeper, "Why did you want to beat up his brother-in-law?"

Xi Rui said disdainfully, "That guy was so arrogant when he was in the academy, how can he be considered a martial arts champion?"

"In the academy, he looked down on us, a bunch of playboys."

"I went to the restaurant to drink that day and happened to meet him. I sneered at him. He actually dared to call me a playboy who is good for nothing but eating, drinking and having fun. If it weren't for my family background, I would be nothing at all."

"I got so angry that I had him beaten up and his writing hand was broken."

Liang Youxiao looked like he was sharing the same hatred with his enemies. "How can he, a person who was expelled from the academy and has a bad character, have the right to say that we are useless? Who gave him the courage?"

Xi Rui snorted, "Of course it was given by Xiao Yuanshi."

Liang Youxiao asked curiously: "How did Xiao Yuanshi plan to have you whipped by your father?"

Even though he was protected by Old Lady Xi, he was still whipped twice. You can imagine that the incident was serious.

Xi Rui said angrily: "When I was out playing, a woman suddenly hugged my legs on the street and said she was pregnant with my child."

"Not only did I get pointed at, but my father also whipped me twice without asking any questions."

"Fortunately my grandma arrived in time, otherwise I would have received more than ten lashes."

"Puff!" Liang Youxiao couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of wine, "That woman, don't you know her?"

Xi Rui rolled his eyes and said, "I don't know a shit. It's strange that I would fall in love with such an ugly woman."

Besides, he has never had any interest in women and only likes eating, drinking and having fun.

Liang Youxiao asked playfully, "Did they find out that it was Xiao Yuanshi who did it?"

When I feel sleepy, someone will bring me a pillow.

Xi Rui replied: "It was found out that it was his wife who did it."

"It took quite a while to check. That woman went through a lot of twists and turns to arrange it."

"But this time it was my father's people who investigated, so we were able to find it based on some clues."

"If it were an ordinary family, I really wouldn't be able to find out."

He snorted again, "But I will definitely hold this account against Xiao Yuanshi. After all, without his support, would that woman dare?"

Liang Youxiao asked: "You didn't retaliate?"

When this was mentioned, Xi Rui got angry, "Not yet, my father told me not to go out and cause trouble."

Liang Youxiao raised his eyebrows, "You've been plotted against, and your father won't help you vent your anger?"

Xi Rui sighed, "My father said that I was the one who caused the trouble first and broke my brother-in-law's hand. It might affect my ability to hold a pen or a weapon in the future, so I deserved to be framed."

"But he only said that. He must be very upset in his heart."

"It's just that recently Xiao Yuanshi seems to be very favored by the emperor, so it's not easy for my family to do anything."

"I'm not even engaged yet. After what happened, no good family would marry their daughter to me."

Liang Youxiao: “…” Even if this didn’t happen, no good family would marry their daughter to you.

However, it must be said that Xiao Yuanshi’s little wife is not only vicious, but also very courageous.

For the sake of her younger brother, she actually dared to touch Xi Rui.

It seems that she really values ​​her younger brother.

No wonder he wanted someone to kill Shi Qingluo and destroy Xiao Hanzheng.

She probably still wanted to avenge herself because Shi Qingluo instigated the Xiao family to make trouble and caused her brother to be expelled from the academy.

But that woman is still too shallow and self-righteous.

Do you really think that the background of the Duke's Mansion, the founding hero, is just a joke and can't be found out?
