Zuo Anli didn't even know how he had agreed to Bai Jin just by some strange combination of circumstances, so he could only watch him running away in a daze, looking out of place.
Bai Jin was different from the children he saw around him. He behaved disrespectfully and cautiously. Although he seemed to respect him, he couldn't hide his temperament. He could just see a bit of comfort in his dark eyes.
Bai Jin didn't know what Zuo Anli was thinking. He had heard the maid talk about the young master's false age of nine, but he was only ten years old after the new year.
In other words, the other party is two years younger than me!
Ahem, of course, without adding age in previous lives.
He rushed into the side room and poured a cup of cold water for Zuo Anli. Children should drink as little tea as possible, so all the drinks prepared here are light and simple.
Bai Jin went out with the teacup in hand and saw a man with round arms and thick waist wearing gray cloth directing Zuo Anli's movements, and he felt a little curious.
This must be the young master's martial arts master, he looks really brave and strong.
He did not disturb the two of them, he just stood aside and waited quietly for the martial arts master to finish his instruction.
Looking at him, he couldn't control his wandering mind. Why didn't he see this martial arts master just now? It only takes a minute to pour the tea yourself. Where did the other party get out?
For adults, it is impossible to hide things on a child's face. Every word and action is reflected in that face.
Even Zuo Anli could tell Bai Jin's little thoughts just by looking at his little face.
The curiosity is on his face, and his round eyes are staring at you pitifully, trying to come up with a reasonable explanation.
Who can withstand this? Anyway, Zuo Anli had already forgotten the lesson he learned before about being polite, so he opened his mouth and revealed the secret: "Uncle Yun was also in the yard just now, but he used some tricks to hide himself. "That's why I didn't ask you to discover his hiding place."
Bai Jin's eyes lit up. Isn't this the legendary secret guard?
Unexpectedly, the small county magistrate's house is actually crouching tiger, hidden dragon!
Uncle Yun used to travel a lot in the world, and he also regarded observing words and emotions as his instinct. He noticed the child's excited eyes and said calmly: "It's just a small skill."
How could Bai Jin let a hero who thought he was superb in martial arts belittle himself like this? , hurriedly boasted: "What the hell, you are too humble. I just stayed here for a long time and didn't notice your existence. This skill is definitely incomparable."
Uncle Yun has never been beaten by anyone . Having boasted so straightforwardly, it was a bit strange for a while. It’s no wonder that everyone likes to hear good things. Filming this piece of flattery makes you feel refreshed and comfortable both physically and mentally.
Zuo Anli saw that if they kept talking, they would accept a disciple and become a master. He was a little depressed at being ignored. He rarely had a bad taste and coughed twice.
Bai Jin's attention was immediately diverted. He broke out in a cold sweat. He was chatting so happily just now that he almost forgot about his boss. In modern times, he would be fired!
He quickly put on a flattering smile, which fell on his delicate face. Not only was it not unpleasant, but it was also particularly quirky.
"Master, please drink some water." He handed over the cold drink in his hand.
The tea cup was held tightly by him for too long, and it was stained with his body temperature. The clear water inside was slightly rippling, much like Zuo Anli's inner lake.
I just feel like the tea cup stained by someone else's temperature has become hot to the touch.
He didn't think much about it. He probably had never been in contact with others, so he didn't adapt well. He took the water and drank it calmly, with the air of a gentleman and the elegance of a hermit.
Bai Jin took out a white handkerchief from his sleeve, which Zhang had cut for him. I'm afraid he was thinking about such elegant things as good scholars, and that even poor people should not be too backward.
No matter how poor his family is, he cannot educate his children in poverty. Although this white handkerchief is not as soft and smooth as silk, it is still comfortable and soft to touch.
As for boys, they can be raised rough. Why are they so delicate?
Having said that, before using the handkerchief to wipe Zuo Anli's sweat, Bai Jin quickly promised: "Master, I have never used this handkerchief, it is still new. Don't mind, I will wipe it for you." Khan."
After Zuo Anli was born, his father had already won the first prize, worked under the emperor, and his wife's family was from an aristocratic family. Not only did their family have a lot of servants, but they also had a lot of people waiting on them.
He had been raised carefully since he was a child, and he was accustomed to nodding his head and accepting Bai Jin's service.
What Zuo Anli paid most attention to was Bai Jin's address. He used "you" in a strange way, as if he was a generation older than others. It was clear that he didn't pay much attention to this before.
Maybe it's because he's the same age. His former book boy also had a friendly relationship with him and wasn't so rigid.
Thinking of what happened in the past, Zuo Anli felt a lot lower. When he was stunned, Bai Jin approached with a white handkerchief.
The veil was indeed as Bai Jin said. It had never been used for other purposes and had no strange smell.
Rub it on your face and wipe away the sweat, and the fabric is almost not that unbearable.
Zuo Anli secretly thought, the little book boy is really like a stove. He had been squatting in the sun for a long time and the heat was strong, so he had sweated a lot.
And Bai Jin just ran a little, and the heat from his body started to come out, and there was also a strange fragrance. Especially like going for an outing in the countryside in early spring, and smelling the fragrance of wild flowers everywhere.
It's melodious and light, not strong or strong, but it has a unique charm that occupies a place in my heart domineeringly.
He was distracted for a moment and couldn't help but say: "It smells so good."
When Zuo Anli saw Bai Jin raising his head to look at him, he knew he had made a mistake and immediately closed his mouth.
Bai Jin didn't want to get to the bottom of it. Seeing that Zuo Anli didn't respond, he wiped the sweat with rough hands and ran to contact Uncle Yun, who taught martial arts.
After Zuo Anli's daily horse squatting and daily boxing training were over, they had already made an appointment to take Bai Jin to exercise next time, and also taught him a few moves. He should box and practice martial arts since he was a child, so that he could be both civilized and martial in the future.
Zuo Anli didn't have any special ideas. After bathing and changing clothes, he was the cool and noble young master again.
You can't see the "embarrassing" look from before with red face and sweating profusely.
He picked up his book, looked at Bai Jin, and asked calmly: "What books have you read?"
Bai Jin sat upright and answered seriously: "The Book of Songs, The Analects of Confucius, The Great Learning, The Spring and Autumn Annals, "The Book of Rites," "Mencius"...are all involved."
He is right. The nine-year compulsory education is just a few excerpts from the classics. It is not wrong to say that he has been involved in them all.
Zuo Anli's eyes widened slightly when he heard these words, as if he didn't expect that he had read so many books.
Seeing this, Bai Jin quickly became humble: "I have only read a few of the texts, not many, not many."
Zuo Anli expressed understanding and praised: "That's also very good." And the old god was there. Said: "At your age, if you can calm down and study, you are already considered to be the best."
Bai Jin quickly boasted a few more words: "Young master is really powerful, how can I compare with you."
Among scholars It's no big deal that he can brag about each other's business affairs.
He didn't take it seriously, but he didn't expect that this young man looked soft and soft, but in fact he was a black heart.
This is a profound complaint from Bai Jin who was forced to read and write in the future and cried bitterly! Fidelity!
