Back Off, Let Me Come

Shen Tang: "..."

After hearing this, she realized what the aristocratic families were planning.

Is co-authoring a free prostitution for teacher education?

After all, the advice given by the sixteenth-level master is not a street cabbage. It is a scarce resource that has passed this village and has no shop. No wonder the aristocratic family is tempted. Could it be that these aristocratic families were itching to take advantage of her? How can she have time to take care of her apprentice?

Even though he wanted to refuse, he stopped after thinking about it.

My inner calculations were rattling.

These teenagers are young and seem quite obedient. Aren't they a ready-made workforce? Since these aristocratic families send people to their doorsteps, why not exploit the free labor force? Regardless of whether it's useful or not, if she occasionally gives some advice, even if they don't make any progress, they can still argue that they have poor understanding, which has nothing to do with her. Can the family still be unhappy with themselves because of this?

Even if I give them ten courages!

Shen Tang couldn't help but said: "Isn't this inappropriate?"

But his eyes passed over a group of fresh leeks, his eyes sparkling, and he was thinking about where to throw them and squeeze them.

Do as the Romans do when they are in the country. She doesn't keep idlers and trash in her tent. When these juicy little leeks enter her territory, they naturally have to abide by her rules. Every little leek that Shen Tang glanced at lowered their heads, looking vaguely unwilling.

Shen Tang understood this.

How can any naughty child like his parents to sign up for tutoring classes?

"Nothing wrong."

Kangnian was cursing in his heart - Shen's eyes were eager to stick to others, and he was so reserved - but hypocrisy was the essence of a superior person. Even if he was satisfied with the gift in his heart, he would still have to pretend to refuse it several times before accepting it. Only in this way can he show off his coolness, integrity and selflessness, he understands!

Haha, he understands everything!

Kang Nian, who thought he understood, cooperated with Shen Tang in acting.

After a lot of back and forth, Shen Tang accepted it.

As the head of the Kang family, Kang Nian still had a lot of trivial family matters to deal with. Once the madam sent someone to his part-time job, he said goodbye as shyly as if his butt was on fire. What you did today is definitely the biggest stain in your life! However, Shen Tang forced him to stay.

The reasons are also very good.

According to Kang Shi's letter, he would arrive in one day at most.

Did the two brothers not see each other for many years?

Kangnian paused when he heard this, hesitating very much.

As Shen Tang said, if he didn't seize this opportunity, the next time the brothers would meet would not be more than half a year at the earliest.

Thinking of this, Kangnian reluctantly stayed for another day.

However, he did not want to see Shen Tang for the time being, so he made the excuse of "the carriage was too lazy and the horse was too tired" to decline Shen Tang's invitation to dine together. Kangnian sent her so much labor without paying salaries, so she should express her gratitude both emotionally and logically.

Seeing Kang Nian as if his butt was on fire, Shen Tang wondered.

"What happened to Kang Bo Sui today?"

Could it be that he is feeling anxious?

Or can’t hold it in when shit comes?

Gu Chi, who had endured so much painstakingly, finally failed, and his face turned blue from the pain at some point: "Why do you think so, my lord?"

Shen Tang replied of course: "As the saying goes - you can travel a thousand miles by holding your urine, but you can't travel even an inch by running thin. I can understand that people have three urgent needs. Kang Bosui and Ji Shou have different personalities. I have dealt with him a lot, and he is today It’s abnormal.”

Gu Chi rubbed his sore cheeks.

"How does my lord plan to arrange those warriors from aristocratic families?"

"Where there is a shortage of people, they are thrown away." Shen Tang mistakenly thought that Gu Chi felt that her handling was inappropriate and took a preemptive strike. "Wang Chao, you also heard that Kang Bosui said that the family sent them here in the hope that I can guide them, which is equivalent to Come and be an apprentice. What kind of work does the master arrange for the apprentice to do? Are they picky about it? Since you are a warrior, you must endure hardships and stand hard work, don’t behave like aristocratic families!"

If you want to enjoy yourself, stay home.

If you want to grow, don’t complain!

Sweat, work hard, and live up to your youth!

"My lord, what you said makes sense——"

Gu Chi didn't want to reveal the family's intentions at this moment, otherwise things would become a big deal given his lord's personality. If the misunderstanding is allowed, it is the noble family that suffers the consequences of being dumb in the end, not the own master. As for the oolong, it won't take long for the family to react.

Shen Tang smelled something keenly.

She moved closer to Gu Chi suspiciously.

Narrowing his eyes: "Are you feeling guilty?"

None of her subordinates are good people, and their life can be summed up in one sentence - they must be on guard against others and always have the intention of harming others. Gu Chi also liked to watch her lively.

Ever since Kang Nian came here, something was wrong with Gu Chi.

Gu Chi responded without blinking, and he was full of righteousness: "Chi has been magnanimous all his life, and I don't know what a guilty conscience is."

Shen Tang raised his eyebrows: "You're not hiding anything from me?"

Gu Chi kicked the ball back: "What do you think, my lord?"

Shen Tang said: "Let's just believe you for once."

Kang Shi came back one day later than expected. He thought that Kang Nian would get impatient and set off back home early, but he didn't want him to keep waiting to see his brother. Kang Jishou, who was very tired and dusty, arrived in the middle of the night and ordered someone to fetch warm water. I haven't had time to take care of myself these days, and I've developed a green beard. He skillfully used a razor to cleanse his face and beard, and there was a whistle outside the tent.

"Come in."

Kangshi spoke casually.

The tent was opened and cold wind poured in.

The figure entered without making a sound, Kang Shi ignored it, but the person who came said: "Silang can't even recognize his brother's aura?"

The knife in Kang Shi's hand paused.

He turned around sharply.

The dim candlelight in the tent did not affect Wen Xin's vision. The man in front of him had a face that had not changed much from that of the past. Who else could it be if he wasn't his eldest brother? The two brothers, one sitting with a knife raised, the other standing at the door of the tent, looked at each other in silence.

In the end, it was Kang Shi who reacted first.

The finger holding the knife pointed to the mat next to him: "Sit."

The tone was calm, without any excitement of brothers meeting again after so many years. Kang Nian was not surprised and sat down as Kang Shi pointed. He sat quietly, watching Kang Shi shaving at various angles in the mirror, and couldn't help but sigh.

Kang Shi said amusedly: "Brother, what are you sighing about?"

Kangnian said: "You have suffered a lot these years."

How can you do such trivial things as shaving and cleansing your face by yourself?

However, Kang Shi was in for a surprise.

When Kang Shi was a child, he was also a pampered child at home, the youngest son favored by his father. But since he awakened to the way of the scribes, the younger brother who could not even put on his own clothes was forced to learn to do it himself. The Kang Shi in front of him was full of blood and his clothes were still messy.

It is not difficult to guess why he arrived a day late.

Because the aristocratic family only openly surrendered to Shen Youli, and the surrender was forced by the situation, how many of them actually recognized it in their hearts? There are still small moves in private. There are some things that they don't need to come forward on their own. They only need to secretly instigate and kill people with borrowed knives, which can also cause trouble for those who come to take over. Coupled with Kang Jishou's mysterious luck, small things must have turned into big things and he was assassinated more than once.

The first time I came back from Kangshi, I didn't go to see Shen Tang. Instead, I stayed in the camp to tidy up myself, so I could spy on him.

Kang Shi scraped the razor twice on the whetstone to make it sharper, rinsed it in cold water, and continued to greet his face: "I just suffered a few bruises, but their whole family is dead." , I deserve this bit of suffering."

He said and touched his cheek to see where it was uneven.

Kangnian asked: "Kill them all?"

Kang Shi sneered: "If we don't kill it, how can we keep it to celebrate the Qingming Festival and worship our ancestors? If we cut the grass but not the roots, there will be endless troubles."

Shen Tang gave everyone on business trips great rights.

If necessary, cut first and then play, or even play without playing.

Kang Nian looked at Kang Shi's cold profile under the candlelight, and for a moment he didn't dare to ask him who he had killed to put him in such a good mood. Not daring to ask any more questions, he changed the subject: "...In the years since Shiro left home, everything in the clan has been peaceful."

Kang Shi ignored his brother's discomfort: "Oh."

The answer was very cold.

The two brothers didn't even talk as much as they did in their last letter home.

Kangnian continued to look for topics, and the content was nothing more than which acquaintance was starting a family, getting married and having children, which tribesman was promising, which tribesman was causing trouble... the topics went around and around, seeming to deliberately avoid their family members. Kangshi's reaction was dull.

This suffocating atmosphere made Kangnian a little breathless.

I couldn't help but said: "On the anniversary of my father's death in the next year, you..."

Kang Shi said, "I'm afraid I'm too busy to do anything."

I don't know whether this sentence irritated Kang Nian, or whether Kang Shi's unthinking response and indifferent tone ignited his emotions. He stood up and said, "You won't go to the anniversary of Erlang's death? What are you busy with? As for the lord you chose, you will indulge in it after a while. Wenrou Township, I probably don’t have time to care whether you are busy or not..."

Kang Shi's nimble fingers suddenly lost control.

The sharp blade left a finger-long scar of bright red blood on his face. The blood dripped down the edge of the knife and soon slid down his chin into his neck. Kang Shi was awakened by the pain, and Kang Nian was also startled. He was about to raise his hand and step forward, but was avoided by the other party.

Kang Shi grabbed the wet cloth and covered the wound.

He stimulated his meridians and suppressed the pain within a few breaths. When he threw the blood-stained cloth into the copper basin, bright red blood rippled in the water. Kang Shi's cheeks were as smooth as new, and there was no sign that there was a cut not long ago: "Brother——"

Kang Nian: "I'm sorry."

He was so out of breath that he reopened the wounds that had finally scabbed. The wounds on the face can be instantly healed with literary energy, but the wounds in the heart can only be covered and left to rot, waiting for the day when the scars will heal automatically. It won't hurt if you don't touch it, but pus and blood will bleed if you touch it.

Kang Shi said: "I can't bear these three words."

Previously, Shen Tang summoned a group of family heads to come to the banquet. Those who came, such as the Ning family, were all from the previous generation, leaving the young and powerful heirs behind. In case they were hacked to death by an axe-hand at the banquet, there would still be an heir in the family, but the eldest brother Kang Shi would personally come to the Kang family, because the Kang Shi brothers' father had passed away, and the cause of death was not honorable, and he died of anger.

Moreover, it is related to Kang Shi.

Not only their father died, but also their brothers.

The father and son walked almost in front of each other.

After Kang Shi finished speaking, the two brothers looked at each other speechlessly.

Until Kang Shi took a step back and made an uncertain promise: "If I have time before and after the death anniversary, I will go back and have a look, but I won't show up in front of others. Please forgive me."

Kang Nian also knew not to force anything: "Yes."

At this time, the guards brought the meals over.

Kang Shi greeted Kang Nian: "Sit down and have something together."

Kang Nian readily agreed.

Although the surname Shen is ridiculous, the food here is really good, and the simple ingredients can make people appetite. Kang Nian went back and asked his family's chef to learn how to make it, but the taste was much worse. Adhering to the rule of "no words when eating and no words when sleeping", he had a midnight snack with peace of mind.

The younger brother threw this rule aside and was displeased: "Why did the eldest brother say that the master will indulge in gentleness in a while?"

It’s just that other people like to spread dirty rumors. Why can my brother, who has always been pragmatic and well-behaved, talk so freely? Could it be that if you sit in the position of the head of the family, you will be infected by other idiots and lose your mind?

Haven’t you remembered the lesson from the last time you spread rumors?

Kangnian didn't have so many worries about his brothers.

After swallowing the food in his mouth, he took another sip of clear soup to suppress the taste of the food, wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth, and then explained the whole story. No matter how infatuated the king is, he can't accept more than 20 beauties like flowers at once without covering up!

She actually took them all!

Not even politely picking a few to use as a fig leaf.

Kang Shi: "...Ahem, what did you say at that time?"

Kangnian recounted it truthfully, his face full of shame, anger and disdain.

He whispered in a low voice: "This is straightforward enough!"

"...It's really straightforward, but it's not straightforward enough."

Kang Nian looked like he had seen a ghost and couldn't bear to look at her: "Silang, since my brother knows that you are protecting the Lord, he will not think bad things about her, but she, but she does! Alas, but the young men presented by each family are indeed good. It's normal for her to like her appearance. This is a revelation. It's just a loss of personal morality. Those who achieve great things will lose a little bit of personal morality as long as they don't lose their moral integrity. The common people want to buy maids and girls even if they get a few more buckets of rice a year. Concubine, not to mention the princes?"

Except it's a little too exciting, it's not unacceptable.

"You don't understand my lord, and what you think is very different from what she thinks. If my lord really likes good looks, why not choose a few people with innocent family backgrounds to serve him? Do you have to get involved with people from aristocratic families? If you are not careful in the future, Making wedding clothes for others?"

One sentence hit Kang Nian several times.

What is "serving someone from an innocent family background"? Although the people he brought here were from the aristocratic family, they were all talented and well-educated. How could they not come from a clean family background? It was as if what he had brought was not a son of a noble family but a young boy and a thin horse!

It’s really infuriating!

Kang Shi was amused: "Brother, if you don't believe me, can you dare to bet?"

Kang Nian almost laughed angrily when he heard this, and squinted at Kang Shi, who was overestimating his abilities: "Silang, do you want to make a bet with Brother Wei?"

The implication is that you have forgotten your gambling luck?

You will lose every bet, yet you still dare to provoke?

This was a favorable situation, and Kang Nian said loudly: "Bet!"

He will definitely win this round!

Kang Nian laughed at his brother for overestimating his abilities.

Kang Shixiao said that his brother did not understand his lord.

On the second day, Kang Shi and Shen Tang reported their work.

The basic skill of a literary scholar is to speak like a lotus flower. Kang Shi is well versed in what content should be emphasized and what content should be emphasized. Even so, Shen Tang could tell that it was not easy behind the scenes - with Kang Shi's luck, it would be unusual for things to go without twists and turns.

"Everything cleaned up?"

Shen Tang didn't care how many people Kang Shi dealt with.

When a crime comes into her hands, she will do it harshly.

Kang Shi said: "Everything is safe."

At this time, Kangnian asked to see him.

Shen Tang muttered in his heart: [Why hasn't he left yet? 】

He said, "Let him in."

When Kang Nian came over, he heard his younger brother whispering: "I heard that my lord recently recruited more than twenty athletes?"

My left wrist has not been getting better, so I went to the hospital today to see an orthopedic surgeon. The doctor said it was a ligament injury or something, and the recovery was very slow, and my brain hurts.
