After spending five days, Xie Xin and his party came to Yingchuan again.
At this time, Yingchuan Academy was on vacation like Huaxia Academy, and Xun Shuang also returned to his home, so even if Xie Xin wanted to communicate with the academy, it was impossible.
However, since we have arrived in Yingchuan and the Xun family is here, it is still necessary for Xie Xin, as a disciple of Li Ying, to visit Xun Shuang.
This would prevent him from knowing that he was passing through Yingchuan but did not go to visit him. If it left any shadow in his heart, it would be difficult for Xie Xin to abduct Xun Yu and Xun You in the future.
If a family that has good relations with the Xun family disdains itself because of this, then it is a grave sin.
After asking about the location of the Xun family, Xie Xin and his party arrived in front of the Xun family's mansion.
"Who is here?!" The concierge stepped forward immediately after seeing the thank you letter and couldn't help but ask.
"Thank you from Nanyang. I came here to visit Xun Jijiu. I wonder if Xun Jijiu is here?" Xie Xin said with a smile.
Then, he handed over the name card and a small bag of broken silver according to the full courtesy.
The concierge took the broken silver as if nothing had happened and put it on the cushion. His attitude was a bit better: "Wait a moment, I'll go in and ask."
Not long after, the concierge hurried out, nodded and bowed and said to everyone: "The master of the house happens to be at home, and I have asked you to bring all the distinguished guests in for a chat!"
Xie Xin didn't feel disgusted with the change in the concierge's attitude.
In fact, the concierges of big families with some status almost all have this kind of virtue.
In fact, at the beginning, it was because Xie Xin and others came on horseback and their clothes were not bright, so the concierge naturally looked down upon others. If someone sitting in a sedan with eight carriages and wearing bright clothes came, I am afraid that the concierge would immediately become
This is it now.
In this world, classes and inequality have existed since the beginning of society.
This is something that cannot be avoided or solved at all.
After smiling, Xie Xin handed the horse to the servant who came out later, and then led everyone in and followed the concierge from the beginning.
After walking through a bluestone main road, the group came to the hall.
Xun Shuang just walked out. When he saw the letter of thanks, he immediately said with a smile: "My dear nephew, do you have time to come over and visit me?"
Again, Xun Shuang is only forty-one years old this year.
But these days there are no maintenance measures, and nutrition is not up to par, so people look older.
The forty-one-year-old Xun Shuang in front of him looked like he was in his fifties or sixties in the blink of an eye. Moreover, there are many people in this era who call themselves senile when they are forty years old.
Therefore, Xun Shuang’s self-proclaimed title is not too much.
"Uncle, what you said is wrong. My nephew's private school has just ended for summer vacation, so my nephew immediately led a team to visit my uncle!" Xie Xin replied with a smile.
"It's a visit, I guess I'm going to do something. I passed by Yingchuan on the way, and then I remembered that I came over to sit here?" Xun Shuang glanced at Xie Yi and others, then looked at Xie Xin with a sly look and said
arrive.
"Haha, I really can't hide it from my uncle." Xie Xin did not deny it, but admitted it readily.
"Is the matter urgent? If not, how about staying here for a few days?" Xun Shuang asked with a smile.
"It's really not too urgent, and I have some things to do in Yingchuan, so I guess I will have to bother my uncle for a few days." Xie Xin smiled.
"You are my nephew, and I am your uncle. What does it matter if you stay here for a few days?" Xun Shuang glared at the thank you letter pretending to be angry.
"Haha, that's right! Since uncle doesn't mind, I won't be polite either." Xie Xin nodded.
Then, he turned back to the others and said, "I asked you, what are you doing there?!"
Only then did the group of people react and came to salute one after another.
When we were at Yingchuan Academy before, we had met Lou Gui, Bian Linglong and Xie Yi Xunshuang, so they naturally behaved more familiarly.
Ji Ling previously studied at Yingchuan Academy, and because he often followed Yuan Shu around, Xun Shuang still had some impression of him. Seeing that he was now Xie Xin's registered disciple, and was also the guard of the Huaxia Private School, he couldn't help but smile and talk to him.
sentence.
It was only the first time for Xun Shuang to see Gongsun Du and Li Feng who came here with the letter of thanks.
When Xun Shuang learned that Gongsun Du was Xie Xin's sworn brother and the younger brother of Gongsun Sheng of Liaodong, Xun Shuang showed the courtesy that a head of an aristocratic family should have.
Knowing that Li Feng was the eldest disciple and eldest son of Li Yi, the owner of Xiaoyi Private School in Wancheng, and that he was also a disciple of Xie Xin, Xun Shuang couldn't help but feel itchy and took a small test on Li Feng.
It turns out that Li Feng's literary skills are pretty good, but his qualifications are a bit lacking. But even so, with his qualifications, as long as he continues to study hard, he will probably have no problem managing a county in the future.
But he didn't expect that Li Feng's greatest strength was not his culture, but his martial arts.
Just now, he can tie with Ji Ling. Although he has the advantage of age, he can tie with Yuan Shu's number one general. Li Feng's martial arts qualifications are still very good.
After Xun Shuang had spoken to everyone and arranged seats and refreshments, he officially started chatting with Xie Xin.
Just at the beginning, Xie Xin said to him: "Uncle, I have something that I want to talk to my uncle about."
After saying that, he glanced at the Xun family servants around him.
Xun Shuang can be considered a mature man. After knowing what Xie Xin meant, he sent all the servants away and made it clear that no one was allowed to come closer than ten meters here.
"Okay, if you have anything to say, my dear nephew, just tell me!" After everything was done, Xun Shuang said calmly to the thank you letter.
Xie Xin smiled, and after groping around in his arms, he took out a bottle.
"The boy got some elixir by chance. I have already tried its effects. It can indeed change a person's life and even extend his life by three or four years.
Li Bin, the grandson of the teacher of this medicine, as well as Cao Cao, the eldest son of the Cao family in Qiao County, and even the people behind him have also taken it, which can be fully proved that it is effective and has no side effects.
When I came this time, I didn't prepare any good gifts. I thought that my uncle was my elder, so how could I not get the good things from my uncle?
So I am sending you five elixirs, and I hope my uncle will accept them!" Xie Xin smiled and handed the bottle over.
"Good nephew, how could my uncle handle such a precious thing?" Seeing Xie Xin take out the bottle so carefully, Xun Shuang naturally believed it.
Precisely because I believed it, I couldn’t do it.
Because this is not a valuable thing, it is a priceless treasure that is hard to find!
"This elixir has the greatest effect only after taking the first pill, and the effect is almost gone after that. Since I and my family have already taken it, this thing is of no use to me.
On the contrary, if you keep it, it will become moldy and deteriorate. Uncle, don't you want to see that?" Xie Xin said to Xun Shuang angrily.
"This... alas! Okay, uncle, I'll accept it!" Xun Shuang saw that Xie Xin was so determined, and he was also interested in the elixir, so he finally decided to accept it.
But he also knew that if this thing was really so magical and he had such a precious thing, then he would naturally owe Xie Xin a huge favor.
Not to mention the rebirth, for the three or four years of added life, the emperor could even exchange a county, or even a county's land, for a pill.
"By the way, my nephew came to Yingchuan this time. I don't know what he wants to do?! If possible, can you tell me about it and let me take a look at it?" Xun Shuang accepted the elixir and immediately raised his head to ask.
As long as there is an opportunity to repay the favor, Xun Shuang will naturally seize the opportunity.
"My nephew, at the invitation of his sworn brother Gongsun Sheng, went to Gongsun's house in western Liaoning to be a guest.
But on the way, my nephew plans to take these students to communicate with academies in various counties. By the way, my nephew also hopes to consult with those tutors..." Xie Xin said with a smile.
"So that's it! But Yingchuan Academy is on vacation, so I'm afraid we won't be able to communicate." Xun Shuang thought for a while and said regretfully.
"Actually, my nephew doesn't have much ability to begin with. If my uncle asked my nephew to seek advice from the tutor at Yingchuan Academy, I'm afraid my nephew would just fail the exam.
My nephew hopes that he can find a private school or school that is not too big, and the tutor's strength is similar to that of my nephew. Otherwise, the nephew will only be abused, and communication and mutual promotion will not be reflected." Thank you letter. He said with sincerity and fear.
"So, how about going to the Xun clan to study? The tutor is an old nephew of the clan. His literary talent is quite good, I believe he is about the same level as a good nephew." Xun Shuang thought for a while and suggested.
"That's great!" Xie Xin nodded happily.
"But before that, are you all tired from the journey? It's time for dinner. Why don't we have dinner together first, then have a good night's rest, and then go again tomorrow?" Xun Shuang looked at the sky outside the door. After that, he turned around and said to everyone.
"In this case, I will bother my uncle!" Xie Xin thought for a while, and seeing that it was really getting late, he agreed.
"Look, you're being polite again? You are my good nephew, and it's just like going home here. Why are you being so polite?! If you continue like this, I'm going to be angry."
"My nephew doesn't dare!" Xie Xin smiled.
After a few polite words, Xun Shuang called his servants and told him to prepare more food and wine tonight, saying that he was going to entertain Xie Xin and others at a banquet.
After chatting with Xie Xin and others for half an hour, he arrived and entered the side hall after being informed by his servants.
