Chapter 44: Deliberate, Definitely Deliberate



These past two days, Guifeng basically left early and returned late.

Busy shopping and chopping wood.

Chi Yuyao looked at the firewood room at home, which was almost full, and immediately stopped them, saying, "Brother, let's stop chopping wood. The firewood room at home is almost full."

"Don't buy anything. My second brother only comes back once every six days. He can't eat that much. What if it goes bad?"

Gui Feng hung up the bacon he had just bought in the kitchen: "Got it, get ready. Let's go pick up your brother."

Chi Yuyao: "I have packed up my brother, let's go. Should we walk or take a carriage?"

Chi Yuyao climbed onto the carriage in the yard and sat down.

He didn't sit inside the carriage but outside, with his two short legs dangling in the air, swaying back and forth.

Guifeng closed the kitchen door and pulled the carriage out of the house.

Lock the door.

Next door, Li Ergou and Liu Hu were following the villagers who were building their houses and building them together.

The walls are almost finished and the roof will be ready in a few days.

After the roof is completed, the next step is to install tiles and then seal the roof. It won’t take long for the house to be built.

Liu Hu looked at Gui Feng pulling the carriage out and asked, "Brother Feng, are you going to pick up Chi An and Li Xia Yun?"

Guifeng: "Well, do you have anything to bring?"

Liu Hu smiled innocently: "No, no, Brother Feng, please come back soon."

On the way, Chi Yuyao continued to ask Gui Feng: "Brother, how are we going tomorrow?"

Gui Feng took a piece of lotus seed cake and stuffed it into Chi Yuyao's mouth, telling her to shut up.

"We will go with the caravan tomorrow."

Chi Yuyao ate cakes like a little hamster: "Go with the caravan?"

Guifeng: “Yes.”

Chi Yuyao nodded to show that she understood.

She thought that Guifeng meant to follow the caravan because the caravan knew the road well and it would be more convenient and safer.

After all, if the two of them went there, it would be bad if they encountered robbers.

Chi Yuyao was also very excited and began to imagine the future: "Brother, do you think I will become a very powerful person in the future?"

Gui Feng: "Yes, people who don't work hard are very powerful. As long as you work hard to get closer to your own dream, even if you fail, you are still a very powerful person, because others don't have your courage and determination."

Chi Yuyao listened to Gui Feng's words and felt that she needed to grow a brain.

It seems to make a lot of sense.

Chi Yuyao: "Didn't my brother pass the exam this year? Why don't you continue to take the exam?"

She thought Guifeng was amazing, not only did he pass the examination to become a student, he also passed the examination to become a scholar in one go.

Very impressive.

Her eldest brother took the exam for three years before he passed the examination and became a scholar, and he was the last one among the scholars.

Goff was very good and passed the exam in one try.

The ranking is still in the middle.

She felt that if Goff continued to take the exam, he would definitely pass.

Gui Feng flicked the two balls on Chi Yuyao's head with his fingers, looked at the two balls on Chi Yuyao's head shaking, and chuckled: "Brother is not interested in this, he took the exam to be a scholar in order to avoid paying taxes."

Chi Yuyao: "So, brother's ambition is to become a general?"

Gui Feng smiled and pinched Chi Yuyao's chubby face: "Yes. Do you think brother can succeed?"

Chi Yuyao said with certainty: "It will definitely succeed. Brother is the best."

Gui Feng: "Okay, then I'll borrow Yaoyao's good words. If brother really becomes a general and makes a lot of money, I'll ask the emperor to make you a princess, okay?"

Chi Yuyao: "Okay, hook."

Gui Feng stretched out his free hand and hooked with Chi Yuyao.

Gui Feng and Chi Yuyao arrived earlier.

There were very few people at the academy gate to pick up students after school.

As usual, Guifeng parked the carriage under the tree where he had picked up Chi An and the others before.

This makes it easier for them to find it.

Gui Feng stood in front of the carriage and teased Chi Yuyao who was sitting in it.

Guifeng now understands why adults like to tease children.

Fun.

Chi Yuyao covered her red face angrily, crawled into the carriage, and ignored Gui Feng.

Wuuuuu, wuuuuu, Goff is going too far. She feels like her face is no longer her own.

Is her face that pinchable?

How to pinch it.

She tried to pinch it, but felt nothing.

Gui Feng just wanted to comfort the angry Chi Yuyao.

Someone hugged my waist.

A familiar voice came: "Brother, do you miss me?"

Li Xiayun put his bookcase on the carriage: "Brother Feng."

In the past, Guifeng had not yet married.

He should be very happy now, sharing what happened in the academy with Guifeng.

Gui Feng patted Chi An's hand that was hugging his waist and said, "Okay, let go. I'll hug you again when we get home."

Chi An didn't know what he was thinking about, and his ears couldn't help but turn red: "Really?"

Guifeng: “Really.”

Chi Yuyao originally wanted to sit outside with Gui Feng in a row, just like when they came.

But her brother got there first and took the spot.

He pushed her away with one butt.

He even turned around deliberately and gave her a look that was particularly arrogant and smug.

Chi Yuyao pulled the hem of her skirt angrily: ╬д╬ He did it on purpose, definitely on purpose, she never expected that her own brother is such a scheming man.

Gui Feng took out the remaining lotus seed cake and gave some to Chi An and Li Xiayun.

Li Xiayun's is not as much as Chi An's.

Chi An felt unhappy when he saw Gui Feng distributing cakes to other men.

But when he saw that his brother gave him the most points, he felt happy.

Chi An: ( ̄^ ̄) Hehe, as expected, my brother likes me the most

Chi An didn't eat first. He took a piece of lotus seed cake and handed it to Gui Feng: "Brother, eat it."

Guifeng dodged and said, "No, I ate on the way. What do you want to eat tonight?"

Chi An: "I want to eat my brother's steamed potato rice, the one he made last time when he cut the potatoes into long thin strips, kneaded them with flour, and steamed them."

Thinking that I will leave tomorrow, I will fulfill Chi An's small request. I will leave tomorrow and I don't know when we will see each other again.

"Okay, do you want some bacon? I'll make you another plate of bacon to go with it."

Chi An: "Then I'll do it. Let's split the work. It'll be faster this way."

Gui Feng and Chi An kept talking to each other along the way.

Chi Yuyao and Li Xiayun, who were sitting in the carriage, couldn't find a chance to interrupt.

The two of them could only sit in the carriage and listen to Chi An and Gui Feng talking.

After arriving at Li Xiayun's door.

Guifeng called out to Li Xiayun who was about to enter the house.

"Wait a moment."

As he said this, he got off the carriage and walked quickly to Li Xiayun's side.

He took out a 100-liang silver note and two liang of silver from his purse: "Tomorrow Yaoyao and I will leave for the border to join the army. This money is for your travel expenses for the exam."

Li Xiayun was shocked when he heard Gui Feng's words: "Join the army? It's very dangerous for Brother Feng to fight in the war."

Gui Feng: "I know. Take the money. When the time comes, study hard and try to pass the exam. Then, go to Beijing to take the exam."

Li Xiayun took the banknote and two taels of silver with slightly trembling hands.

"I will study hard, strive to pass the imperial examination, and not let Brother Feng down."

Like a thief, he took the banknote and lightly touched Guifeng's hand with his fingers.

This gave him a great sense of satisfaction.

"Brother Feng, take good care of yourself when you join the army. Have you bought medicine? On the battlefield..."

Gui Feng: "When did you become so long-winded? I'm going back now."
