The scholar who regained his freedom quickly rubbed his almost useless left hand.
Xiaobei happily handed the letter into the scholar's hands.
"Brother Xiucai, then I'll leave everything to you."
Xiucai looked at the letter in his hand, then looked at Xiaobei with a happy face in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh. In fact, he could run away now, but he still chose to agree to Xiaobei.
"I can deliver the letter for you, but I have a question, where are you going next? Are you going back to the inn, or where are you going to play, you have to tell me first, otherwise I won't deliver this letter for you. "The scholar said with concern.
Hearing Xiucai's words, Xiaobei was also stunned. Yes, where will she go to play next?
She originally made an appointment to go out to play with Sister Xiao Guo, but now that Sister Xiao Guo has not come out, where will she go to play alone?
This doubt couldn't help but come to mind in Xiao Bei's mind, but it was forgotten by Xiao Bei only for a moment.
'Never mind it, just ask for leave first. After asking for leave, you can go wherever you want to go. '
Xiaobei thought proudly, but Xiucai wanted to ask, so he might as well make up one himself.
"I just want to take a stroll, I don't have any plans to go somewhere."
"Really?" Xiucai looked at Xiaobei in disbelief.
"Really, brother Xiucai, go quickly." Xiaobei quickly pushed Xiucai.
The scholar had no choice but to tidy up his clothes and walked towards White Horse Academy with Xiaobei's forged leave letter.
To be honest, Xiucai was very nervous at this time. This nervousness was not only because he was afraid of seeing Mr. Zhu.
At the same time, he was also worried that if Xiaobei's request for leave was revealed, then the shopkeeper's suggestion would come, and he, the assistant, would not be able to bear the consequences.
However, the development of things was beyond Xiucai's expectation. The process of asking for leave turned out to be extremely smooth.
As soon as the scholar stepped into the gate of the academy, he saw Mr. Zhu already standing at the gate of the academy, waiting for him with a smile.
"I've met Mr. Zhu." The scholar quickly bowed nervously.
However, Mr. Zhu waved his hand and told him to get up directly. "Okay, there's no need to be polite. What's the matter with you coming here?"
Hearing Mr. Zhu directly ask about business, the scholar immediately became nervous. He didn't know what to say, so he had to hand the letter to Mr. Zhu.
Mr. Zhu opened the letter and took a look, with a slight smile on his lips. Then he turned around and said:
"Okay, I have received the letter. You go back and tell Shopkeeper Tong that I understand. By the way, at the same time, ask Xiaobei to pay more attention to rest."
Seeing that Mr. Zhu had no doubts, the scholar felt relieved. He quickly clasped his fists and said:
"Yes, sir!"
However, although what Xiaobei told him was completed successfully, he couldn't help but feel a little lonely when he saw Mr. Zhu turning around and leaving without even saying a single extra word to him.
The scholar shook his head and sighed, but just as he turned to walk out of the academy gate, he heard a familiar voice coming from behind.
"By the way, I've been obsessed with it recently, but there haven't been any good books on the market recently. I wonder how your book is going. If it's about the same, could you send me some to satisfy my craving?"
"Sir?" Upon hearing Mr. Zhu's words, the scholar quickly turned around in surprise, but at this time, Mr. Zhu had already walked into the school to teach.
Although Mr. Zhu was not seen, the scholar heard what Mr. Zhu just said very clearly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Seeing Mr. Zhu who had already begun to teach the children to recite the Three-Character Sutra, the scholar did not bother him. He bowed respectfully and turned around to leave.
After the scholar left, Mr. Zhu glanced at the direction in which the scholar left, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
But then he shook his head.
'What a disgraceful guy, he can't even beat a little girl. He really is from the same line. '
Smiling softly in his heart, the old man couldn't help but think of another figure similar to the scholar.
. . .
Seeing the scholar with a happy face coming out, Xiaobei, who was waiting anxiously outside, quickly asked nervously:
"How's it going, brother Xiucai? Did Mr. Zhu ask me why I asked for leave?"
Looking at Xiaobei who looked expectant, Xiucai shook his head helplessly and said:
"No, sir just asked me to go back and tell the shopkeeper. He knew and didn't ask anything else."
"Really!" Xiaobei shouted happily, but she soon realized that her voice was too loud and quickly covered her mouth.
"Great, then I don't have to go to class today." Xiaobei was so happy that she did not forget to thank the scholar:
"By the way, thank you, Brother Xiucai."
But looking at Xiaobei who was so happy, Xiucai had a headache. What if the shopkeeper found out about this?
'God bless me, don't let the shopkeeper find out. '
"Okay, I've asked you for leave. Where are you going next?" Xiucai asked Xiaobei.
If you want to prevent the shopkeeper from knowing, in addition to passing Mr. Zhu's test, there is another important point, that is, nothing happens to Xiao Bei. If something happens to Xiao Bei, just thinking about the scholar will make you feel terrible.
It can be said that when Xiaobei takes a day off, a bunch of them have to help wipe his ass.
"Huh? I haven't thought about this yet. Brother Xiucai, where are you going?" Xiaobei thought for a moment and didn't know where he was going, so he asked the question to Xiucai.
However, Xiucai said: "I'm going to get medicine for your Brother Bai and Sister Guo. Do you want to go together?"
The scholar was tempted that it would be best to look at Xiaobei at all times, so that he could feel at ease.
But when he heard that Xiucai was going to get some medicine, Xiao Bei quickly shook his head: "Well, let's skip it. The pharmacy stinks so much, why don't you go by yourself?"
With that said, Xiaobei ran away in a hurry.
The scholar quickly chased after him.
"Hey, where are you going to play? Don't go to any dangerous place."
"Got it!" Xiaobei turned around and replied as he ran, and then disappeared after a few turns.
The scholar didn't expect Xiaobei to disappear all of a sudden, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
However, after searching for several times, Xiaobei was nowhere to be found. The helpless scholar finally had to go to the pharmacy to buy medicine. He planned to buy the medicine and go back quickly, and then discuss with Xiao Guo what to do next.
The scholar recognized the handwriting of the forged leave letter as Xiao Guo's at a glance, and Xiao Guo probably taught him this method of skipping school.
. . . . . .
At this time, in the inn, Xiao Guo was also thinking about how to get rid of the shopkeeper and sneak out to meet Xiao Bei. She was also worried that Xiao Bei would not be safe alone.
But helplessly, the shopkeeper was now entangled with her.
