After dressing up as a stepmother, I transformed the whole family into working in the fields

Qin Yao sat up straight, pointed to the chair opposite, and motioned for Awang to sit down and speak slowly.

In fact, her understanding of Gong Liangliao was very shallow. He was the name mentioned by Liu Ji and Ding Shi, and he was so popular that he was a great scholar. With his status as a great scholar, he guessed he must be someone.

Besides, there are prodigy disciples like Qi Xianguan, who must be quite knowledgeable.

But now seeing Awang's slightly solemn expression, Qin Yao thought, "Is there something wrong with this person?"

Awang asked: "Madam, do you know why he appears here?"

Didn't Qin Yao want to say that he resigned? Just find a place to retire and retire.

But Awangdu reacted this way. It was obviously not that simple. He shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Awang said: "This person was sent out of Beijing because of the impeachment of the Holy Queen."

Qin Yao raised an eyebrow, it was the Holy Queen again, it seems that the situation in the court is very delicate now.

"The reason for impeachment is that he wielded power in the harem, disrupted the imperial court, and even disparaged the emperor in a restaurant because he was afraid of being henpecked and useless."

This Gongliangxiao is really crazy. Qin Yao clicked her tongue twice and asked Awang if he had anything more exciting that he wanted to hear!

There really is.

"The year before last, the emperor convened ministers to discuss the matter of deposing the crown prince. He wanted to make the eldest princess the crown princess. Gong Liangliao and three hundred of his disciples knelt in the main hall for three days and tried their best to oppose it and threatened death. After that, the matter of deposing the crown prince was dropped. "

"Two months later, Gong Liangliao accidentally fell from a restaurant and had to amputate his legs to save his life."

"So." Awang rarely showed worry and asked solemnly: "Does Madam still want to make friends with this person?"

Qin Yao picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip of tea to calm down her shock. There was a 90% chance that Gong Liangxiao's legs were crippled by the eldest princess.

However, he is still a great scholar!

Qin Yao took another sip of tea, put down the empty teacup, and looked up at Awang, "You went to Qi's house this time to deliver a letter. Did you find any spies or the like?"

Awang shook his head, "I've never noticed this before."

"Then don't panic." Qin Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

There are no informants or spies around Gong Liangliao, which means that Gong Liangliao can no longer stir up any trouble.

In addition, now that his legs are disabled and he is old, he may only have a few more years to live, and he will not pose any threat to the nobles in the court.

But having said that, Prime Minister Qi is quite courageous. At this time, he still sends his great-grandson to Gong Liangliao’s family. Is he also an opponent?

Qin Yao shrugged, no matter what, she did not participate in the court struggle, they only had a small goal - to reduce the corvee tax.

Therefore, the old man Gong Liangliao had to continue to hug his thigh.

No, he was hugging his arms. The old man’s legs were already covered by himself.

Awang observed carefully and saw that Qin Yao's expression was obviously relaxed, so he knew what her answer was. Without saying anything, he got up and went to the back mountain to feed the horses night grass.

Qin Yao looked at Awang's leaving figure and thought about whether to tell Liu Ji the inside story.

"Forget it." If you really want him to know, you have to explain more, such as why Awang knows this, etc., "I won't tell you anymore."

Lest Liu Ji spill the beans in front of the great scholar and offend others.

Moreover, there are some things that are purer if you don’t know them.

Ok, deal. Qin Yao decided not to tell Liu Ji this information. She reached out to take another sip of tea, but found that the tea cup was empty. She clapped her hands and simply went to sleep.

Just after drinking strong tea before going to bed, the more she lay down, the more energetic she became. Qin Yao collapsed a little, and she didn't feel a little sleepy until the middle of the night.

Fortunately, Awang has come back. He doesn't have to get up early to prepare breakfast for the children and send them to school. He can have a little sleep.

However, this demand was not realized.

Qin Yao was woken up by Liu Ji's anxious voice: "Madam! Madam!"

She wasn't angry at getting up, but she was also upset because she was woken up. She opened the door with a bang with blood-stained eyes, frightening the dusty Liu Ji who was standing at the door and jumped five meters away!

"Aren't you in the academy? Why did you come back just two days ago?" Qin Yao asked coldly, looking Liu Ji up and down with a scrutinizing gaze.

There were no signs of a fight, and it didn't look like he was causing trouble.

Liu Ji patted his chest to calm his frightened little heart, and quickly explained after hearing this:

"I have something urgent to tell my wife, so I asked for leave early in the morning and came back. I will go back to the academy soon after the news is delivered. It won't delay my studies."

After finishing speaking, seeing that Qin Yao's murderous look had softened, he dared to step forward and said, "Madam, you have to do corvee again."

"The county magistrate just issued an official document this morning to repair the city wall and ordered all localities to collect corvee service for two months."

Qin Yao narrowed her eyes, so why did you rush here so early in the morning?

Liu Ji's eyes widened. Wasn't this enough for him to rush over?

The hardships of transporting grain last year were still vivid in his mind, and Liu Ji was now like a frightened bird, trembling at the slightest mention of corvee service.

"Madam, you won't send me to do corvee service this time, will you?" Liu Ji swallowed his saliva and asked tentatively.

Qin Yao yawned and stretched again. Under Liu Ji's anxious gaze, she waved her hand calmly, "The letter to Gong Liangliao has been sent to him. If he can reply to you, , you don’t have to do corvee service.”

Liu Ji was happy at first, and then dumbfounded, "Ah, this, this"

Qin Yao raised her eyebrows, "It's all over, why don't you go back?"

Liu Ji was half-hearted, but he would not sit still and wait for death!

Holding her stomach that screamed at the right time, she asked pitifully, "Madam, can I stay at home and have breakfast before leaving?"

Qin Yao said "tsk" and nodded.

Liu Ji immediately went into the kitchen to find something to eat. Awang had left some steamed white flour buns warm on the stove. Liu Ji took them out and smelled them. The aroma was fragrant, and his stomach growled even more fiercely.

He took half of it and put it in his mouth as a cushion. Then he rolled up his sleeves and gave himself and Qin Yao a pot of hot egg noodle soup. They had a comfortable meal with steamed buns.

It wasn't until Qin Yao showed her impatience that she went into the house to pack some things and went back to the county town.

The first thing Liu Ji did when he returned to his dormitory was to spread out the paper and pick up a pen to write a letter.

At this moment, he was very grateful for the savings he had saved while running literacy classes in the village.

As the saying goes, as long as you work hard, an iron pestle can be ground into a needle!

Liu Ji didn't believe it. Moved by his 'sincerity', Gong Liangliao could not reply to his letter!

Ever since, letters with deep affection flew into the Qi family's ancestral house like snowflakes.

The first few letters were withdrawn before they could be sent to Qi Mansion.

But he couldn't bear to send more than a dozen letters a day, which soon attracted the attention of the housekeeper of Qi Mansion.

Finally, after receiving the thirtieth letter from Kaiyang County Academy, the housekeeper couldn't hold it any longer. Something was a little wrong, so he had to report it to the master's family.

Qi Xianguan looked at the basket of letters handed over by the butler and swallowed hard.

He didn't want to hand it to the teacher, but he was very curious about the content of the letter.

But it is not a gentleman to read other people's letters privately. In the end, after struggling for several hours, he decided to send the letter to the teacher.

Under Qi Xianguan's curious gaze, Gong Liangxiao slowly opened the poorly packaged envelope. Inside was the anxious handwriting of the writer who could be seen at a glance -

[Sir, are you there? 】

[Sir, I miss you. 】

[Sir, have you eaten? 】

[Sir, waiting for your reply. 】

[Sir, Ji Shen is thinking about it. 】

[Sir, it’s sunny today. Are you feeling well? 】

【gentlemen.】

It took Gong Liangxiao two full hours to read all the letters.

The teacher and the student looked at each other, and Qi Xianguan was horrified to find that he was a little moved, "How about the disciple accompany the teacher on a trip to Liujia Village for an autumn outing?" (End of this chapter)
