Perceiving that the atmosphere in the academy was not right, Mr. Fu subconsciously hugged the box in his arms, quietly walked outside the academy, put his head in and looked into the academy, looking left and right. As a result, I saw that those classmates who were not very upright on weekdays all straightened their backs and stood in their respective seats with serious expressions.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Mr. Fu swallowed his saliva, and a somewhat unpleasant premonition rose in his heart. He just wanted to ask what happened to the classmate who was closest to him. , and then heard a roar of anger coming from the front,

"Fu An!"

The master in gray clothes was staring at himself with anger.

"How do you get so sneaky."

Fu Gongzi looked at the angry look on the Master's face, secretly said that he was not good, stood up from the door, walked into the door, and shouted dejectedly, "Master."

What time is it now, why did you come? How did I tell you all these days, that's how you remember it?"

Listening to the Master's questioning, Fu An didn't dare to argue, so he could only honestly admit his mistake to the Master who was half a head shorter than himself: "Master, I was wrong."

Your old gentleman doesn't like his tricks, and said with a blank face: "Reach out your hand, think of the first offense, and hit it three times today!"

Hearing this number, Fu An's face immediately showed a bit of distortion, but looking at the unquestionable Master in front of him, he still hesitated and stretched out his hand.

Seeing Fu An's movements so slow, the old master was obviously even more angry. After he stretched out his hand, he hit his hand three times, until Fu Gongzi' oh Oooo' three times, and the muffled sound of the students' laughter suddenly resounded around.

When the master finished fighting, his anger disappeared, he stretched out his hand to him, and said indifferently: "Bring it!"

Fu An stared at his swollen hand with red eyes. Hearing the Master's words, he didn't react for a while, and asked stupidly, "What?"

."

Fu An's eyes were red just now, and now tears are coming out. This is the treasure he has been waiting for for a long time. He tried to beg for mercy: "Master."

The master glared at him, then said, "Do you want me to tell your father before you take it out?"

"Don't, don't! Can't I be wrong?" Fu An apologized pitifully and handed over the things in his hand.

Looking at the speed at which it was handed over, which was slower than a tortoise, the master glared at him in disgust, and reached out his hand to grab it.

First click, nothing. The second time, it's even tighter. The third time, but also retracted.

The master laughed angrily, the other hand raised the ruler in his hand and was about to pull it towards Fu An, but he saw Fu Gongzi let go of his hand with a swish, so that he almost lost Stand firm and fall to the ground.

Stabilizing her figure, the master became even more angry and raised his hand to hit Fu An.

Fu An habitually dodged and closed his eyes at the same time, but after waiting for a long time, he did not feel any pain in his body. When he opened his eyes, he saw that the master was holding his arms He looked at him with a 'dead wood can't be carved' expression.

The old man shook his head, "You! Your father has specifically explained to me that if you don't study hard, let alone eat in class, you won't be given any pocket money in the future. , so you can't eat anything."

Fu Anten felt a bolt from the blue, the master and his father were old friends, he did not doubt his statement at all.

When Fu An was crying and trying to plead for himself, the master in front of him snorted heavily and walked straight to the podium with his things.

The master looked down at the people below, and said loudly: "It's a special period recently, you should study harder than ever before, and don't be the slightest slack!"

"Yes!"

Listening to the uniform response below, the master nodded with satisfaction, his eyes swept over Fu An, who was staring at him sadly, took the box he snatched from him and went straight to Go in the back hall.

When the Master left, the classroom was quiet for a while, and then a student at the front sneaked a look at the front, making sure that the Master had gone far, then turned his head to face the people behind Made a safe gesture.

In just a moment, the silent school became lively again, and several students who were close to Fu An even came over with a smile, put their arms around his neck and said, "Fu Xiao Fat, what kind of delicious food is the one you took, even the master dared to contradict it for it."

The food was confiscated, and Fu An's face was full of unlovable expressions. Hearing the ridicule of his classmates, he couldn't help crying, "Master is too ruthless. Well, I've been waiting for a long time to eat it. In the end, I didn't have a bite left! I just took it away like that, I haven't even tasted it!"

Looking at Fu An who was crying miserably, the other people looked at each other for a while, and they all put away the ridicule on their faces, puzzled: "Isn't it just a meal? It's a big deal. Just buy it."

When the man finished speaking, Fu An's cry grew louder, causing others to condemn and look at the man who spoke, as if he had done something wrong.

Fu An was sad for a while, but after everyone's persuasion, he calmed down, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and began to think about whether he should go to his room and put the The box was stolen so that he could secretly taste the thing.

Chen Xing, who had no idea that Mr. Fu had such a wonderful life today, went back to Gu’s mansion after selling everything, took a bath, ate, took a lunch break, and studied with Gu Lang as usual Recognition.

The sun shines in the house through the window, forming mottled light and shadow, and occasionally I hear cicadas chirping from outside, strung into a somewhat annoying melody.

In front of the desk, Chen Xing was holding a writing brush, writing on the paper with a serious look, and the fine halo was scattered on half of his handsome side face, making his skin more and more fair.

The young man at the desk seemed to be satisfied with the words he had written, and a smug smile appeared on his face after finishing the last stroke. After putting down the pen, he raised the paper and looked at his masterpiece, and then he wanted to pick up the paper and show it to the person next to him.

Chen Xing had a confident smile on his face, turned his head to look at Gu Lang next to him, and saw the man sitting with his back straight, his eyebrows and eyes gentle, and his writing straight. For fear of getting ink, he rolled up his cuffs by half, revealing half of his pale, flowing forearms. The pair of knuckles, like white jade, lined the black pen on the hand, and the black and white were distinct.

Chen Xing stared blankly at the scene in front of him, and suddenly understood the meaning of the phrase "Shang Mo is like jade, the son is unparalleled".

It seems that she noticed Chen Xing's sight. The man who was writing seriously, lightly sketched the last stroke, turned to look at Chen Xing next to him, when he saw him staring blankly at When he was on his own, he gently raised the corners of his mouth and said softly, "What's wrong?"

Looking at the smugness on Chen Xing's face, Gu Lang's eyes showed a bit of a smile, he stretched out his hand to take the paper he handed over, and looked at the words on it, as he wished said: "Very good, it is a genius to be able to write like this in such a short period of time."

Hearing Gu Lang's praise, Chen Xing's face immediately showed a bright smile, and he wanted to show off again, but when he lowered his head, he saw the words Gu Lang just wrote, his face His expression immediately froze.

Gu Lang is very sensitive to Chen Xing's emotions. Looking at the person who was so happy just now, he suddenly became a little stunned and asked subconsciously, "What's wrong?"

Hearing Gu Lang's words, Chen Xing glanced at the words he had written in his hand, then looked down at what Gu Lang had just written on the desktop, his face immediately turned a little red, a little uncomfortable He said with great embarrassment, "My words are much worse than yours."

If Gu Lang's calligraphy can be compared to the master's calligraphy, then his calligraphy is only a little better than that of a child. Putting it together, you can see the pros and cons.

Looking at the depressed look on Chen Xing's face, Gu Lang reached out and touched his head, comforting in a warm voice: "I learned to read characters since I was a child, and I have been writing for so many years, and then I relied on it even more. This is a living, so naturally, you can write a little better than others. Your study time is short, and it is not bad to be able to write like this."

Every time Gu Lang touched his head, Chen Xing felt that Gu Lang was treating himself like a cat to smooth his hair. He didn't hate it, but he always felt a little different.

So, Chen Xing pulled down the hand he put on his head, and said awkwardly: "I said, don't keep rubbing my head like this."

Gu Lang, as usual, answered him in a good voice, "Okay."

Chen Xing wanted to be angry, he felt that even though Gu Lang promised well every time, he would continue to do so next time. It's just that once he met Gu Lang's good-looking and gentle face at all times, he couldn't let out any anger.

Chen Xing secretly spurned himself, in order not to make himself appear too lecherous, he quickly changed the subject, "Did you learn Chinese characters when you were very young? But I heard that your family used to do business."

After finishing speaking, Chen Xing suddenly realized that this did not seem to be a very good thing, a bit of annoyance appeared on his face, and looked at Gu Lang's expression a little embarrassed, "Well, in fact, I That's not what I meant to ask."

Gu Lang looked at the embarrassment that appeared on Chen Xing's face, the gentle expression on his face did not change in the slightest, and even a little pampering appeared, "My family used to be in business."

In Chen Xing's worried eyes, Gu Lang said slowly: "From the time I can remember, my family has been very rich and lacked everything. I grew up in this house since I was a child. , I live a life of wearing clothes to reach out, and meals to open my mouth, even I don’t need to do anything, and there are countless servants who come to serve me with a password.”

Chen Xing noticed that when Gu Lang said this, his eyes kept looking at the sky outside the window, as if he was caught in some kind of long-term memory, maybe those days were really beautiful, so much so that When Gu Lang said this, there was always a shallow smile on his face.

"Besides, I am the only male in my grandchildren, so I am naturally favored. After my parents discovered my literacy talent, they worked tirelessly to hire famous teachers from all over the world for me, even The things I learned are the best ones to use. All of this is in the hope that I will grow up in the future and be able to achieve something and shine on the lintel, but it’s a pity that later…”

Gu Lang said here, his voice gradually weakened, and he did not continue to speak, after all, everyone in the back knew it. It's a pity that his family has not waited for him as a child to grow up before ushering in a disaster, leaving the family ruined and leaving him alone.

Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang's silent profile, hesitated a few times, released and clenched his hand, and finally put his hand on Gu Lang's hand on the armrest.

With his usual gentle smile, he said softly, "Don't worry, I'm fine. It's just that I suddenly remembered what happened at the time and felt a little emotional. The past has passed, and it's useless to be sad."

Chen Xing raised his eyes and looked at Gu Lang for a while, making sure that he was not really sad, and then heaved a sigh of relief, but Gu Lang's mood was still very low.

My head is gone."

Gu Lang was first taken aback by Chen Xing's actions, then looked at Chen Xing's cheeks that were flushed with embarrassment, suddenly laughed out, stretched out his hand and rubbed his head vigorously When he got up, in Chen Xing's resentful eyes, his eyes were gentle, and he said in a gentle tone: "Okay, thank you."

Chen Xing blushed at Gu Lang's tone that seemed to carry a hook, and quickly lowered his head, stumblingly said: "No, you're welcome."

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's eyes deeper and deeper, flashing a little dark light that no one noticed.

Since that day inadvertently brought up Gu Lang's sad past, Chen Xing has been trying to make Gu Lang happy. The most common method is to make some special food that Gu Lang likes to eat. This also led to the fact that Gu Mansion's rich food has risen by several levels since that day, and Qiu Jiu even secretly suspected that he had gained weight.

This day, when Chen Xing went to the stall, he was thinking about what dishes to eat when he went back today, but he heard a wronged voice not far away, "Little boss!"

Chen Xing looked in the direction from which the voice came, and saw that it was Mr. Fu who had not seen him for many days. He originally thought that Master Fu didn't like his jelly and lived up to his expectations, so he stopped coming to him in a fit of rage. Who knows, this will be the scene when we meet again.

Chen Xing looked at Fu Gongzi with a fat face and was a little puzzled, "Fu Gongzi, what's wrong with you?"

Hearing him ask this, Chen Xing immediately burst into tears, "Little boss~ You don't know, I didn't eat the dessert you gave me."

Chen Xing's face showed a bit of confusion, and asked with some doubts: "What's going on?"

What happened after Mr. Fu took the jelly back that day, Barabara told Chen Xing again, and finally said: "I sneaked into Mr.'s house, I wanted to have a taste of the dessert, but who knew that not only did I not find the box, but was blocked in the room by the husband who came back. Later, not only was he beaten ten times by the master, but he was also fined twenty times to copy the Four Books and Five Classics until Just finished it today."

Chen Xing looked at Fu Gongzi with a complicated expression, not knowing whether to sympathize with him for being punished so many times by his husband, or to admire his persistent spirit for eating in one bite.

After saying this, Master Fu looked at Chen Xing and said with anticipation: "Little boss, do you still have this kind of dessert there?"

A few embarrassed expressions appeared on Chen Xing's face, because the jelly didn't last long, so after waiting for the feedback from Master Fu for a long time, they ate the rest. .

Looking at Chen Xing's expression, Fu Gongzi also guessed a few points, and a disappointed expression appeared on his face immediately.

Seeing Fu Gongzi's pitiful appearance, Chen Xing suddenly thought of what he was planning some time ago, and immediately said: "Not now, but in a few days."

Fu Gongzi rekindled a little hope in his eyes, stared at Chen Xing with bright eyes, and said excitedly: "Really?"

Chen Xing looked at what he was looking forward to, nodded without hesitation, and said his thoughts, "I plan to sell that dessert in a few days, but the quantity will be smaller and the price will be higher. higher."

Hearing that he had a chance to eat the dessert again, Mr. Fu immediately said without hesitation: "I will definitely come to support me when the time comes, I don't believe that I can't eat that thing."

Chen Xing looked at his excited look and laughed, "I hope that when Mr. Fu comes over, he can help me bring some guests. In return, I will give Mr. Fu two desserts. as a thank you."

Fu Gongzi just wanted to say no, anyway, he is not short of money, but when he turned his head and thought that the number of things Chen Xing said was small, he kept a mind. If it sells quickly and he can't grab it, then he can take the two copies sent by Chen Xing!

Thinking of this, Mr. Fu turned towards Chen Xing with a stern face: "Don't worry, little boss, I will definitely bring you more people to support you!"

Chen Xing smiled at Fu Gongzi, agreed with him a time for the sale, and watched him happily leave with a bowl of Liangpi.

Staring at the back of Mr. Fu leaving, Chen Xing couldn't help laughing a little, he thought that Mr. Fu was quite cute. This thought only passed in his mind for a moment, and then his attention was drawn to the new guest.

Before returning to Gu Mansion that day, Chen Xing went to the vegetable market to buy a lot of bones and pig skins to prepare for the next sale of jelly. Although the jelly made can only be eaten on the same day at room temperature, and can be stored in the ice cellar for two or three days, its raw material gelatin can be stored for a longer time. At that time, you only need to get the gelatin out, and use gelatin to make it when needed. Just out of jelly.

Chen Xing planned everything, and even went to the old carpenter and asked him to help him build a unique counter for storing jelly. His current condition is a bit rudimentary, and he can only place it like this temporarily.

After Chen Xing bought the raw materials for making jelly, he went back and saw an old man selling chickens by the roadside. Thinking that I have made a lot of money these days, I am not so stingy, so I chose a lean chicken to go back.

On the way, Qiu Jiu looked at the chicken, thinking about the scenes of eating chicken a few times before, and asked greedily: "What flavor are we eating this time? Shred chicken, or eat spicy chicken?"

Listening to his question, Chen Xing smiled and said softly: "Neither, we eat beggar chicken this time!"

When Qiu Jiu heard the name, a bit of confusion appeared in his eyes, and he didn't understand what Chen Xing was talking about.

Chen Xing sold it for a while. He didn't tell him how to make the chicken for the time being. He only said that he would know when he made it at night.

Although Qiu Jiu was curious, he was obedient. He didn't ask any more questions after hearing the words, and just waited for dinner in the evening.

So, Qiu Jiu worked harder and harder in order to eat new food earlier that day.

Qiu Jiu couldn't help but ask directly, "Is this the beggar chicken you said?" He watched Chen Xing do it with his own eyes, but now he is not quite sure about it It tastes good or not, after all, it is not very good to look at the appearance.

chicken."

Looking at the thing, Qiu Jiu and Gu Lang were even more curious. Just when they were hesitating whether to ask or not, they saw Chen Xing put the thing on the table. Then, in front of them, the outer layer of lotus leaves was gently removed, and immediately there was a roast chicken smell mixed with the fragrance of lotus leaves, which made people start to salivate.

Chen Xing smelled the smell and seemed to feel quite satisfied. He took a knife from the side and cut a few pieces of meat, gave them to Gu Lang and Qiu Jiu respectively, and said warmly: "You guys try it out, see. See if it suits your taste."

Qiu Jiu, who couldn't bear it for a long time, hurriedly picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, while Gu Lang beside him was much more gentle, but his movements were not slow at all.

"Delicious!" Qiu Jiu finished the first piece, and soon ate the second and third pieces.
