Wei Ruyi came over in the morning and Bai Yu'an said something. In the afternoon, he started to feel tired.
I was thinking of getting up and practicing calligraphy to clear my head, but A Tao told me that Wen Changqing was here again with Wei Ziwen.
The brush in his hand was still warm, and Bai Yu'an felt uneasy, so he let go of the brush.
As soon as Wei Ziwen came in, he saw Bai Yuan leaning softly on the chair, reading a book on the armrest with one hand, and holding hot tea in the other hand.
The room was stuffy and the smell of medicine was strong, making people almost breathless. Wei Ziwen frowned subconsciously.
Looking inside the house, there were actually three pots of charcoal fire burning. It was strange that it was not hot.
I don't know how Bai Yu'an stayed here.
He looked at Bai Yuan, who was sitting on the chair with her long hair tied back, as cold as a plum blossom: "You are not afraid of being damaged by the heat."
After saying that, he sat on the stool next to Bai Yu'an.
Wen Changqing grabbed Wei Ziwen and said, "Yu'an fell into the water and became cold. This is how to get rid of the cold."
Bai Yu'an smiled and put the book on his lap and sighed: "The girl next to me is afraid that I will be cold, but she is a little warm."
A Tao was pouring tea for Wei Ziwen and Wen Changqing. After listening to Bai Yuan's words, he couldn't help but turn around and give Bai Yuan a rolling look and said: "This slave is doing it for the good of the master. The master blames the slave."
Seeing that A Tao was angry, Bai Yu'an said hurriedly: "You can't listen to those who are joking with you."
A Tao held up the teapot and snorted: "I just can't listen."
With that said, he turned around and went out to get new tea.
Wen Changqing glanced sideways at A Tao's back, and then said to Bai Yu'an, "You're a pretty awesome girl."
Bai Yu'an sighed helplessly: "It's a bit harsh, but it's also for me."
Wei Ziwen saw this and said from the side: "A girl can talk to you like this. If we get married in the future, won't we be controlled by my wife and be unable to go out?"
"If I want to invite you out in the future, I probably have to ask your wife first."
Bai Yu'an coughed a few times, and his voice became hoarse: "Brother Wei made fun of me, but it doesn't mean I can't go out."
Wei Ziwen chuckled: "With your body, can you beat the future wife in the future?"
Wen Changqing was listening at the side, and quickly pushed Wei Ziwen's arm and said, "Yu'an is still sick, Brother Wei should say less."
When Bai Yu'an and Wei Ziwen met, they would inevitably have a few words of bickering. If they didn't bicker, they wouldn't be used to it.
She smiled: "I knew they were all jokes, but I didn't take them seriously."
Wei Ziwen also smiled and said: "When I came in just now, I saw you looking lifeless and lazy. Now that you have said a few words, you look a little brighter."
Bai Yu'an pursed her lower lip and said nothing.
Wen Changqing looked at Bai Yu'an and asked, "Has your illness gotten better these days?"
Bai Yu'an nodded: "Much better."
"I'll be on duty in two days."
Wen Chang said: "There is no rush to get promoted. We need to recover from the illness first."
Bai Yu'an nodded, then looked at Wei Ziwen and Wen Changqing: "You came to see me, I remembered it."
Wei Ziwen smiled and said, "I met Changqing today, and I didn't know you fell into the water."
As he spoke, Wei Ziwen showed some worry on his face: "Your health is not good to begin with. You should take good care of yourself this time, lest you get the root cause of the disease."
Then he asked again: "I heard that you were accidentally knocked into the river?"
"Caught someone?"
Bai Yu'an shook his head: "Maybe it was an unintentional mistake, but I never thought of looking for someone."
Wei Ziwen frowned and looked at Bai Yu'an: "You are quite generous."
Bai Yu'an smiled and said, "Spring is coming soon. How are Brother Wei's preparations?"
Wei Ziwen took a sip of tea and said, "I'm well prepared, but if I still fail the exam this time, I don't plan to take the exam again."
Wen Changqing looked at Wei Ziwen: "Then what are Brother Wei's plans?"
Wei Ziwen smiled and said: "I plan to take the martial arts test."
Bai Yu'an smiled and said, "This is suitable for Brother Wei."
"Maybe in a few years, Brother Wei will become a general."
Wen Changqing said to Wei Ziwen from the side: "Yes, you have been practicing martial arts since you were a child, so it would be a pity not to take the martial arts test."
Wei Ziwen sighed: "Our dynasty has always valued culture over military affairs. Military generals have no say in the court. They are suppressed by those civil servants and find it difficult to get ahead."
Bai Yu'an whispered: "That's true."
"In prosperous times, we do need to rely on civil servants and civil servants to govern, but border defense still needs to be supported by military generals."
Wei Ziwen then followed: "Those evil-minded civil servants in the imperial court only know how to talk about war on paper. If there is a real war, I am afraid they will run faster than anyone else."
Wen Changqing was unhappy after hearing this: "Brother Wei, don't kill everyone with one shot. If we really want to fight, men are bloody."
As he spoke, Wen Changqing looked at Bai Yu'an: "Yu'an, do you think so?"
Bai Yuan smiled and paused before saying, "Yes."
Wei Ziwen glanced at Bai Yu'an and smiled: "But Yu'an can just hide. If he is caught on the battlefield, he will be tortured and incited to rebel immediately."
Wei Ziwen always spoke like this. Bai Yu'an had no choice but to whisper: "Literati also have deep feelings for their family and country. Brother Wei's words are one-sided."
"Is it possible that he has become a little thinner and his temperament has become weaker?"
"If there ever comes a day in the future when I am asked to be on the front line, I will definitely not back down."
Wei Ziwen was startled for a moment when he saw that Bai Yu'an was serious. Then he smiled, slapped Bai Yu'an on the shoulder and said, "Then you have to take good care of yourself."
"You're too weak. Why don't you come to my place later and I'll teach you some bodybuilding tricks to protect yourself."
"I won't lose my balance and fall into the river after being hit by someone this time."
Wei Ziwen's slap made Bai Yu'an's shoulders tremble, and she nodded with a smile: "I don't dare to disturb Brother Wei these days. It's better to wait until spring is over."
Wei Ziwen said in a pretentious manner: "Then it's settled. Don't be afraid when the time comes and let me go."
Bai Yu'an was helpless: "When I have time, I will naturally learn some moves from Brother Wei, so that I can defend myself."
Wen Changqing came over and joked: "You are a man defending yourself, but you are afraid that the girl will eat you."
Wei Ziwen glanced at Wen Changqing: "Yu'an's body is too feminine, so it is necessary to learn some self-defense techniques."
Bai Yu'an didn't want to talk about this anymore, so she looked at Wen Changqing and asked, "Brother Wen, has the wedding date been decided?"
Wei Ziwen was stunned after hearing this, and then leaned towards Wen Changqing: "How long have we not seen each other, and you are about to get married?"
Wen Changqing smiled: "The wedding date is still early, we will go in the second half of the year."
Bai Yu'an leaned back on the chair and sighed: "Brother Wen is so lucky, and the music will surely sing in harmony from now on."
Wei Ziwen smiled: "The date will be determined by then, but you can send us a post earlier to free up the time."
Wen Changqing nodded repeatedly: "Naturally, naturally."
After chatting for a while, Bai Yu'an originally wanted to keep a few people for dinner, but Wen Changqing and Wei Ziwen didn't want to bother them, so they exchanged a few words without staying.
A Tao followed outside to see someone off. When he came back, he saw Bai Yuan's eyes closed and motionless from exhaustion.
He hurriedly walked over and asked in a low voice: "Master, are you tired?"
Bai Yu'an then opened his eyes and handed the cup in his hand to A Tao: "The tea is cold, please change it to another cup."
A Tao was stunned for a moment, nodded quickly, and went out to get the boiling teapot.
The tea cup was replaced with hot tea. Bai Yu'an squinted and took a sip, tapping his fingers on the armrest of the chair: "How many days have I been sick?"
A Tao looked at Bai Yu'an: "It's been six or seven days since today."
Bai Yu'an glanced out the window, then lowered his eyes and hummed.
The room was quiet for a moment, and there was no more sound.
