C86 (1/2)

Hu Xueyong laid on the ground, not wanting to move at all. He felt that this person had better not care about him anymore, it would be the best if lightning could strike down from the sky and kill him on the spot, saving him the humiliation of being alive.

Gu Yun squatted down and observed him, ”If you don't want to say it, that's fine, but if you really have nothing to live for, I can send you off right now, but if you still want to wash your shame from today, get up happily. My time and patience is limited, I don't really want to waste it on someone who wants to give up on me.”

Gu Yun counted three times, and indeed he stood up from the ground, and without turning his head, he walked back to his palanquin. Just as he was about to command the palanquin, he heard Hu Xueyong shouting loudly, ”I am!”

Gu Yun lifted the corner of his mouth, gave a meaningful glance to the people outside, and then directly returned home. Therefore, Xie Jingxi was still waiting for him to eat together with her. When Gu Yun saw the silhouette of a certain person reading a book at the window, for some reason, his mood became a lot better, no matter how much trouble he had in his mind, it would all be swept away.

”I'm back.” Xie Jingxi put down the book, walked up and took her clothes, ”How does it feel to go to the imperial court?”

”Nothing, not even the same as sleeping in a bed with Xi.”

Xie Jingxi spat at him, then pulled him over to the table and said, ”I made this minced meat myself, how about you try it?”

Gu Yun looked at her in surprise, ”Why did Xi think of cooking?”

”I've never made it before. Let's try it out and see if it can be eaten.”

Gu Yun looked at the slightly reddened meat, he smiled at her, then picked up a pair of chopsticks and placed it into his mouth. After chewing for a long time, his eyes lit up, ”Un, the taste is not bad, you're very talented, just a little raw.”

”Has he been born?” Xie Jingxi also picked up a pair of chopsticks and put it in her mouth, frowning as she chewed for a long time, just as she was about to swallow, she was stopped by Gu Yun, ”You really swallow, hurry up and vomit.”

”Pah pah …” Xie Jingxi immediately vomited, ”You know it's not tasty, why didn't you stop me?”

”No, I think it's okay. I won't let you have a taste. How do you know you can do it well? Next time, won't you know what you're doing?” Gu Yun poured a cup of water and rinsed her mouth, ”I didn't want you to swallow it because you are not used to it.

Xie Jingxi was defeated and told Ming Yu to carry the meat down, ”This can also make you say a bunch of principles, but the last time General Sheng roasted the meat, it was pretty good. I also thought of it and tried to cook it myself, but seeing that he was roasting the meat, it wasn't difficult.

Gu Yun looked at her with a fake smile. His wife dared to mention Sheng Luan because she was afraid that he would not eat her food, but she still said magnanimously: ”It's not good if you want to eat it, just let him roast it another day, and bring Jingyu over next time as well. This saves him from always holing up at home and studying.

”Seems like he knows that Jingyu is not going to participate this year, and has asked him to come out and relax instead, Xie Jingxi nodded her head,” I also think so, but if you follow me, it doesn't mean that you have to take the Imperial examinations, but since his family is like that, he has no other choice. I can see that Jingyu either doesn't have any ideas in his heart, but my father has restrained him a few years ago, so I can't let him go, and I think that it would be better to interact more with General Sheng Luan.

It was just that Xie Jingxi did not mention anything about Gu Yun, nor did she ask. Just like how he knew that the Lady Xu had beaten her up, Xie Jingxi had her own plans, so sometimes, he did not need to say too much. However, he remembered the grievances that her wife had suffered, and she would take them back sooner or later.

”There's a high chance that this year's organizer will be a Elder Official Xie, so it's only natural for Jingyu to wait for three years.” In order to reassure her, Gu Yun still mentioned this to her, ”However, based on Jingyu's progress in the exam, waiting another three years wouldn't make any difference. Moreover, even if we end up with this year, I'm afraid that we'll still lose out.”

Xie Jingxi did not know what meant by ”suffering from a loss”, but news of Elder Official Xie being the main examiner came out in less than two days. In an instant, the Elder Official Xie's prestige had increased, and many examinees who did not know anything went to the Xie Clan to visit their future teachers.

These past few days, Miss Ming Yu had been extremely free. Ever since the matters at home were handed to Fang Dai, she had become a complete idler, other than helping Xie Jingxi cook and take care of her daily necessities, she also had the free time to practice her new abilities, which made her to listen to all around the corners.

Xie Jingxi frowned, she knew that Ming Yu might have heard some news and had come back to show off. Ming Yu moved closer to Xie Jingxi, looking around like a thief, and said: ”Miss, guess what I just heard.”

”But whose cat eloped again?”
