Chapter 71 Scumbag

It was late autumn when we came here, and it is early winter now. Qingfeng opened the cabin window for a while, and when An Xin and the others came in, he closed the window to block the cool breeze blowing in from the water.

An Xin called out, "Come and sit down. I'll give you the rewards you won this time."

"That's great. I finally don't have to ask my parents for money to go to the teahouse and listen to stories." An Rui said excitedly with sparkling eyes.

Liu Boxing also looked at An Xin excitedly. This young master had no concept of money, but he still felt very grateful for the first money he earned.

"What a promising future." Jiang Zhou hushed them.

An Xin took the heavy box handed to him by Qingfeng and opened it. Inside was twenty-seven silver ingots of fifty taels each, which he placed on the table.

"Yes, our trip was not in vain," An Xin said with a smile as he looked at the silver. "Zi Yu signed up for both painting and poetry and won first place. Each of them will be awarded 150 taels of silver, a total of 300 taels."

An Xin took six silver ingots from the box and placed them on the table in front of him.

Zhu Shijing moved closer and touched it. "It's quite heavy. Cousin, do you want me to keep it for you?"

Li Ziyu glanced at him leisurely with his deep eyes, "It is quite heavy, leave your share with me later."

Zhu Shijing gritted his teeth, wishing he could slap himself in the face. How could he forget that his cousin had been independently supporting his family since he was young? How could he be someone he could fool?

"cousin!"

Li Ziyu said calmly: "No need to say more, I will take your share back to my aunt. You are so filial, you shouldn't object, right?"

"No...I won't." Zhu Shijing said aggrievedly.

The few people who were sitting nearby watching the fun, seeing Zhu Shijing being humiliated, turned their heads away and laughed secretly with their shoulders shaking.

If their little headmaster is the big devil, then senior brother Li Ziyu is the one with deep thoughts and a sinister heart.

He usually looks half dead, but if you dare to provoke him, you will be in trouble for a period of time, and you will be so frustrated that you can't even say it.

Just like Zhu Shijing now.

An Xin enjoyed watching the fun and gave all the silver that Zhu Shijing won from chess and arithmetic to Li Ziyu.

He said in a nice way: "Since our Master Zhu is so filial, I'll have to trouble Ziyu to bring such a heavy silver ingot to Madam Zhu."

Zhu Shijing gritted his teeth: "..." I will really thank you.

"Xiang Bai, take this," An Xin took out six silver ingots from the box and handed them to him, "This is the three hundred taels you won from participating in the Qin and Shi competition."

Leng Xiangbai took it with a slightly trembling slender hand. Having faced the difficulties of life early on, he cherished every hard-earned money extremely.

An Rui stared at the dwindling number of silver ingots in the box, fearing that his share would be missing.

An Xin saw it, glanced at his little cousin jokingly, and said teasingly: "The silver ingot is so heavy, why don't I keep it for our An family's only child and take it back to my second uncle and second aunt."

An Rui was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and stretched out his two palms, begging, "Cousin, I will really thank you, and I won't have to share the burden for your Miaomiao."

An Xin laughed and scolded: "What a waste."

Then he put the one hundred and fifty pieces of silver he had won into his palm.

Afterwards, he gave silver to Jiang Zhou, Liu Boxing, and Kong Xun, who won the calligraphy competition.

Over the course of a few days, everyone had a smooth journey on the passenger ship. After seeing off Chen Shanchang and several teachers and students from Yuejian Academy, An Xin and the others also returned to Lin'an County smoothly half a day later.

After everyone got off the boat, Kong Xun asked Ling Yun to hire a carriage.

At this time, An Xin glanced sideways and saw the servant named Jixiang brought by Kong Xun, who was entangled with Qingfeng who was carrying the last bit of gift.

An Xin narrowed her eyes and walked forward, and heard the servant said to Qingfeng arrogantly: "I advise you, little girl, not to be ungrateful. I am a servant of the Taifu family in the capital. It is your blessing that I like you.

A maid who was carried out of the water by a man, whose body was touched by Ling Yun, is still pretending to be noble in front of me."

There was a bang, the sound of a heavy object falling.

"Ouch!" groaning in pain.

When everyone turned around, they saw the servant brought by Kong Xun, lying on the ground in a dog-eating-shit posture, holding his waist, his body twisted in pain.

After Qingfeng was surprised, he quickly walked to the expressionless An Xin with his luggage on his back, and said with tears in his eyes: "Master."

An Xin turned around and looked at Kong Xun with cold eyes: "Take good care of your servants. I don't care if he is a tutor or a servant of a noble family.

If anyone dares to bully me again, I don’t mind having him report to Yan Luo in advance.”

After saying that, An Xin pulled Qingfeng towards the dock where they could hire a carriage.

Li Ziyu and the other six took a look at Kong Xun, who was standing there with flushed faces and unclear eyes, looking at the servant lying on the ground and groaning.

After that, the few of them stopped paying attention and followed An Xin into the hired carriage and left.

Kong Xun, who had been educated by some people to be a good person since childhood, looked at Jixiang with deep eyes until Lingyun, who had gone to hire a carriage, came back.

Jixiang, who was holding his waist and getting up from the ground, felt a shock in his heart when he saw Kong Xun's expressionless face.

However, when he thought of his young master's indecisive and cowardly character, a trace of contempt flashed across his eyes, and he said, "Young master, you see that An Shanzhang is just a woman, so arrogant, she doesn't take you seriously at all."

Kong Xun, who was originally as gentle as jade, now exudes a coldness, and a dark light flashes in his lowered eyes, "Go back."

Ling Yun: "Yes, young master."

Jixiang saw Kong Xun taking Lingyun into the hired carriage, and hurriedly chased after them, supporting his aching waist, but it was still too late.

Looking at the departing carriage, the anger in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

Sitting in the carriage, Kong Xun closed his eyes and thought about the nephew of the chief steward in the mansion, who had been arranged to serve him since he was ten years old.

It seems that he often doesn't ask himself what he is doing in his yard.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with it before, but after listening to Principal An Xiaoshan say that people should have their own opinions, Kong Xun gradually found that both his own problems and his views on the people around him had changed.

It seemed like I had been living in a confusion before, but after going out and seeing some things, my mind gradually became clearer.

On An Xin's side, Li Ziyu and a few others who were originally preparing to go home were worried, so they followed her carriage to the academy.

Although An Xin was angry at Kong Xun's rudeness towards Qingfeng, she did not mention the matter again in order not to embarrass Qingfeng.

Uncle An and his students were very happy to see them back.

An Xin gave Qingfeng several brushes that he had brought for the four little ones and asked them to find them and give them to them.

Jiang Hao, Ma Xiuzhu, Wen Yucheng and Zeng Xuezhi were all very happy when they received the gifts.

He bowed and said, "Thank you, Shanzhang."

The others also took out small things for these little fellow apprentices. An Rui and Liu Boxing, two foodies, of course brought them some local snacks.

"Thank you, brothers."

An Xin smiled and curled her lips. It was obvious that the half-grown children preferred the gadgets and snacks brought by Leng Xiangbai and An Rui.
