Chapter 20 20. Mole on the back of the neck

Yu An panicked for a moment, and then said without changing his expression: "I am not the young Marquis."

Gu Jinshu was also startled by that face, but when he thought about it carefully, the young marquis was already dead, in front of the entire royal family, civil and military officials, how could he appear here.

Moreover, this kid has a dark look on his face, and he has nothing to do with the young Marquis.

"Ahem," Gu Jinshu recovered and said, "I'm sorry, classmate Yu looks so much like an old friend of mine."

"It's okay, the dean asked me to come here for something." Yu An calmed down and said.

He also didn't expect that the dean was actually Gu Jinshu. If he had known about him, he would never have come.

Gu Jinshu pulled out the test paper and wanted to teach him a lesson, but facing the face that looked exactly like the young marquis, he really couldn't lose his temper.

He sighed helplessly, handed the paper to Yu An and said: "Your article is very good, but the other questions are untouched. As the dean, I really don't want to see you fall, so I want to give you a good advice."

Fan."

Yu An took the test paper and said calmly: "I don't want to get fame."

"Why is this?" The dean looked at him eagerly and said, "With your knowledge, you shouldn't be trapped in this small village."

Yu An's slender jade fingers pinched the paper into a fold, and he said coldly: "Then where should I go?"

Gu Jinshu looked out the window, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and he said in a calm tone: "It's time to go outside the mountains and the water, see the people there, the things there, and the scenery there, and then make a decision.

What do you want?"

"I'm not interested," Yu An said decisively, "There's nothing to see."

"You" Gu Jinshu choked up, he had never seen anyone talk to him like this, not even the prince had such an attitude.

Yu An's eyes became colder and colder, and he opened his thin lips lightly: "Since there is nothing else, I will leave."

After he finished speaking, he walked out on crutches. Gu Jin hummed bookishly and didn't want to say anything more.

As a result, before Yu An could go out, he tripped over the threshold and fell to the ground. His crutches hit the ground with a few crunching sounds.

Gu Jinshu was startled and quickly went up to help him. Yu An's face was tense and he didn't show any pain.

Because of the angle, Gu Jinshu accidentally saw a mole on the back of Yu An's neck, hidden under his clothes.

He was shocked, but without saying anything, he pulled Yu An up.

Yu An left little by little, leaning on a cane and with a livid handsome face.

Gu Jinshu looked at the direction he left with a complicated expression, not daring to imagine what he had gone through this year.

Two more days passed normally, and Xu Ziyi finally came back. In fact, his injury was not completely healed, but lying around was too boring, and he would rather come over and take classes.

When Master Chen came to class, he found that everyone else was sitting neatly, except Xu Ziyi, who was riding on the chair like a horse with his back facing forward and his buttocks tilted back as hard as he could.

The corner of his eye twitched. Although he knew that Xu Ziyi's butt was injured, he still wanted to beat him. He had no choice but to endure it and finished the class.

The strange thing is that Xu Ziyi actually listened to the whole class in a well-behaved manner.

At noon, Yu An and Lu Zhixu had dinner together as usual. Lu Zhixu ordered a rice dish and a vegetarian dish.

Since Yu An entered school, he has never seen Lu Zhixu order meat dishes, but he used to order two vegetarian dishes, but this time it became one.

Yu An didn't say anything. He took out the last jar of meat sauce that had reached the bottom and handed it to Lu Zhixu with great reluctance.

Lu Zhixu was stunned. He looked at the meat sauce and then at Yu An. In the past, Yu An would share the meat sauce with him, but only today he felt Yu An's reluctance.

He couldn't help but find it funny and said, "I appreciate Brother Yu's kindness, so I won't eat it. You can take it back."

Yu An breathed a sigh of relief, took back the jar, and gave Lu Zhixu a big chicken drumstick.

He was reluctant to eat the last bit of meat sauce made by Yunyao.

When returning to the dormitory at noon, a handyman handed Lu Zhixu a letter. Lu Zhixu looked at the letter and became a little unsteady.

This is how a student studying far away receives a letter from home. Lu Zhixu sat on the bed and couldn't wait to open the letter.

But after looking at it for a while, his face suddenly turned solemn and sad, and the hand holding the letter began to tremble.

"Brother Yu," his eyes were red and his voice was hoarse than ever before: "My sister was raped by the landlord."

Lu Zhixu is twenty this year. She has a sister, Lu Qingqing, who is seven years younger than her. When he left home, Qingqing was still a little girl and would only follow him and call her brother.

Lu Zhixu beat the wall angrily, and he didn't stop until his right hand was dripping with blood. He wanted to go back and kill the landlord, but it would take two months to get back from here.

Yu An's face turned gloomy, and he clenched his fists, not knowing how to comfort him.

That afternoon, Lu Zhixu skipped class. Master Li was really surprised that such an outstanding student skipped class.

Xu Jingzhou glanced at the empty seat next to him worriedly, said hello to his master, and ran out to find him.

Half an hour later, Xu Jingzhou ran into the tavern panting and saw the drunk figure of Lu Zhixu.

Lu Zhixu looked like he had no desires and no demands, but only Xu Jingzhou knew that he would come here for a drink or two when he couldn't hold it any longer, but he would never drink like this.

Xu Jingzhou took Lu Zhixu's wine glass and said, "You can't drink any more."

Lu Zhixu looked confused. Seeing that the wine glass was taken away, he directly picked up the wine bottle and poured it into his mouth.

Xu Jingzhou quickly grabbed his hand: "Stop drinking! What can you do to treat your stomach?"

"I don't need you to worry about it!" Lu Zhixu waved his hand away and said, "I have money. Did you see that my sister became a concubine for the landlord?" As he said that, he took out the letter, which also contained a five-dollar bill.

One hundred taels of silver notes.

He said it forcefully, but his expression looked like he was about to cry, which was so ugly.

"Okay, you're awesome." Xu Jingzhou picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. He had never drank wine before, and his throat felt like it was on fire. He held it back and said to the waiter: "Two more bottles of wine."

"What are you doing?" Lu Zhixu looked at him reproachfully.

Xu Jingzhou said: "If you want to drink, I will drink with you. I will drink as much as you want." As he said this, he tried to grab Lu Zhixu's wine bottle.

"I won't drink anymore." Lu Zhixu put the bottle aside, stood up unsteadily, put the money for the drink on the table, and was about to drag Xu Jingzhou out.

Xu Jingzhou sighed, stepped forward, helped Lu Zhixu up, and put one of his arms on his shoulders.

On the way back, Lu Zhixu asked hesitantly: "Tell me, what should I do?"

"Study, gain fame, and become a local official. Then you can get rid of the landlord and rescue your sister." Xu Jingzhou said calmly.

"You're right." Lu Zhixu nodded, staggered, and a paper bag fell from his body.

Xu Jingzhou picked it up for him and asked doubtfully: "What is this?"

Lu Zhixu squinted his eyes and exhaled the smell of alcohol, and said: "A grandfather in the tavern gave me tea. He saw that I read a lot and said it can refresh me."

"Don't be fooled."

"I'm not a three-year-old, so don't think of people so badly." Lu Zhixu glanced at him dissatisfied.
