Also, many thanks to everyone who bought me coffee (*≧∀≦*)

Yao shi went to the front yard to collect peppers and saw Gu Chengfeng sweating like rain in the vegetable field.

Yao shi was slightly stunned and went blank for a moment, thinking that she had seen wrongly.

But she soon rejected the idea.

It was indeed Gu Chengfeng.

Strange, why did he come here?

And he was doing… work here?

Little Jing Kong spoke seriously, ”You canʼt just keep watering one place, it has to be evenly distributed. Every vegetable need to be irrigated with fertilizer~”

Little Jing Kong made him work? They knew each other?

Gu Chengfeng was about to say ‘you do it then’ to Little Jing Kong, but as soon as he turned around, Yao shi fell into his view.

Two pairs of eyes met each other.

Both of them: ”...”

……

At dusk, Xiao Liulang left Hanlin Academy, and it happened that Lin Chengye and Feng Lin also finished their studies at Hanlin Academy.

“Liulang!”

Feng Lin jumped down from the carriage and stopped him.

Having finished his studies at the Imperial Academy, Feng Lin could no longer continue to live in the dormitory of the Imperial Academy. Prices in the capital were high, and that naturally applied to houses as well. Fortunately, he knew Lin Chengye, this local tyrant.

Now he was living in Lin Chengyeʼs house, paying Lin Chengye a little rent every month.

This way, it was much more beneficial for the two of them as they could attend classes together during the day and review together at night.

Although Hanlin Academy’s court hall was a part of Hanlin Academy, the time of their duties and that of the officials of Hanlin Academy differed to some extent. Prior to this, the three of them had never run into each other.

”You’re so early today! Those people didnʼt arrange anything for you to do?” Feng Lin asked.

The main purpose of Hanlin bachelors such as Feng Lin was to study, so there were actually not many official duties assigned to them, while Xiao Liulang was to be a proper official, so his case was naturally different.

Moreover, Xiao Liulang was a newcomer, and being called to do odd jobs was a very common thing for newcomers like him.

Ning Zhiyuan, for example, was often called to run various errands.

The only exception was An Junwang, who had a powerful background. All the people in Hanlin Academy instead supported him and dared not boss him around.

”En, nothing much went on today.” Xiao Liulang said.

”Liulang, weʼll send… you back.” Lin Chengye poked his head out of the carriage window and offered.

Although Lin Chengyeʼs stuttering problem hadn’t been cured completely, he was already very happy to be able to pop out three words without stuttering occasionally.

It was also thanks to Feng Lin.

Feng Lin practiced talking with Lin Chengye every night, which was inspired by Gu Jiao, who helped Xiao Liulang practice walking every night, even though Xiao Liulang didn’t show any signs of recovery at the end of the day.

But Gu Jiao never gave up.

And Feng Lin was deeply touched by this.

Of course, Xiao Liulang didnʼt give up having Gu Jiao practice her calligraphy day after day either, which almost drove Gu Jiao shockingly mad.

Xiao Liulang didnʼt sleep all night, didnʼt have dinner last night, and didnʼt have much appetite during the day. He was really exhausted at the moment, and walking home by himself would be tough.

He got into the carriage.

In order to keep a low profile, Lin Chengye didnʼt choose a big carriage for himself, but everything inside was filled with the luxury of a nouveau riche.

Lin Chengye was used to it.

But Xiao Liulang was almost blinded.

The two of them gave the most comfortable seat to Xiao Liulang.

For them, Xiao Liulang was both a teacher and a friend. Without Xiao Liulang, they wouldn’t be where they were today.

”Liulang, you donʼt look well. Have you been too tired lately?” Feng Lin, after all, was not inside the centralized internal part of Hanlin Academy, so he wasn’t particularly clear about Xiao Liulangʼs situation.

Plus, everyone knew that they had a good relationship with Xiao Liulang, so people naturally wouldn’t mention the news about Xiao Liulang in front of them.

Feng Lin only occasionally met Ning Zhiyuan in the cafeteria and asked him a word or two.

Xiao Liulang replied, ”It’s nothing. How are you guys doing with your studies lately?”

At the mention of this, Feng Linʼs attention was successfully diverted, and he couldnʼt help complaining, ”I naively thought that I would never have to study again after the imperial exam was over, at least I wouldnʼt have to write eight-part essays anymore. Unexpectedly, I was indeed freed from eight-part essays, only to be buried by so much history, arithmetic, agronomy, astronomy…”

What they were studying was similar to the learning content of the first-class Jinshi, but there was a difference in progress and depth.

They were all, after all, preparatory officials of the imperial court, and it was natural for the direction of their studies to vary.

The purpose of their study was no longer the imperial examination, but to be an official and to benefit the country and the people. It was best to be able to do practical things for the common people.

The Hanlin Academy in this dynasty was much stricter than the previous ones. According to what they heard, they would also visit the countryside.

They just didn’t know when it would be their turn to go.

When Xiao Liulang got home, Gu Jiao had just returned from the medical hall. She was walking casually with her hands placed on her back below her back basket, exuding an aura that refused to let strangers approach.

Xiao Liulang inexplicably felt arrogance and mischief in the way she walked.

Perhaps sensing something, Gu Jiao looked back faintly.

She probably didnʼt expect to see Xiao Liulang behind her as there was a little irritation on her face that didnʼt fade.

Her thin eyebrows were tightly knit together, and a few words were almost written all over her face—— donʼt, provoke, me, I’m, very, annoyed, right, now!

As soon as Gu Jiao saw Xiao Liulang, her expression changed in a matter of seconds, immediately putting on the usual little well-behaved expression she always had in front of him.

If being well-behaved didnʼt work, then being gentle would do too!

Gu Jiao opened her eyes wide and tried her best to show off her S-grade acting skills!

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Xiao Liulang saw everything he needed to see.

Oh, was she like this in private?

Xiao Liulang seemed to have discovered a new world. After being stunned for a moment, he was unable to hold back a low laugh.

His stomach had been hungry all day and all night, his body exhausted all night, but all the hunger and tiredness after a busy day disappeared along the wind at this moment.

Gu Jiao grabbed the straps of her back basket with both hands, bowed her head, and kicked the pebbles on the ground with her toes.

Donʼt laugh.

Being too handsome was breaking the rules.

”Give it to me.” Xiao Liulang walked over with his crutch to get the basket on her back.

”No, itʼs not heavy.” Gu Jiao replied.
