cold hearted son-in-law

When Chu Yunxi and Li Mo came to Beijing, they rented a private house with two bedrooms and a courtyard in a remote alley.Chu Yunxi didn't have much money on him, and his body should have been pampered before. He couldn't help running around, had nightmares every night, and was exhausted, so he had to rely on Li Mo to take care of him all the way to Beijing, so that he could drag his sick body Arrive in the capital.Li Mo fell ill when he first entered Beijing, and later became bedridden. Everything was taken care of by Chu Xi.

When Chu Yunxi went back, the people outside the private houses were watching, and there was a lot of people's voices, and it was very lively.Chu Yunxi saw the official envoy outside the door to announce the good news, showed his identity seal and resume documents, took the happy list and went in, shutting out all the excitement.

"Why? Cough cough..." Li Mo leaned against the head of the bed and looked at Chu Yunxi who entered the room, with a haggard face and blushing face. His eyes swept across her easy face, and then stared at the gift issued by the Ministry of Rites in her hand. "The number one scholar and No. [-]" Xibang asked with gritted teeth.

Chu Yunxi put the medicine bag and the happy list on the table next to him, poured another glass of water and handed it to Li Mo with both hands.Li Mo didn't answer and just stared at her.

"Brother Li, please don't get angry, please listen to my explanation. Before the exam, you fell into a coma due to the cold and fever, so I will replace your name, disguise yourself as you, and enter the exam room with your identity. I just think about us After traveling thousands of miles to Beijing, no matter what, I can’t even go back to the examination room without entering the exam room. I always have to try it. I passed the imperial examination, but Brother Li’s illness has delayed until now, and he made mistakes again and again, and things have turned into this. If Brother Li still believes in me, I will confess my identity to the emperor and plead guilty when I meet the saint at the Qionglin Banquet five days later. .” After Chu Yunxi finished speaking unhurriedly, he looked at Li Mo quietly.

"Oh, Chu Yunxi, do you think I'm a fool?" Li Mo roared angrily, panting for a while before saying bitterly: "You did all of this, and your identity is suspicious, which caused me to pretend to be my name. Thanks to your calculation, I treat you like a brother, but you have been using me all the time!"

After hearing Li Mo's words, Chu Yunxi looked calm and composed, but his eyes were already indifferent and alienated, and he was silent for a while before saying: "I'll make the medicine first, everything will be resolved after the Qionglin banquet."

"I'm going to report you!" Li Mo blurted out when he saw Chu Yunxi was about to leave with the medicine.Chu Yunxi smiled faintly, walked out of the room on his own, and said casually as if joking: "If you want to die, I can help you!"

After the two broke up unhappy, the young lady from Mrs. Hua's mansion came to find her the next day, and presented her with an agarwood painted orchid brocade box, which contained nine carefully crafted silver needles, the silver-white needles being the longest. The long one is nine inches long, and the short one is one inch six. It is comfortable to hold. The silver needles are different in shape, but the handles of the needles are all engraved with delicate and tiny orchid logos, which are clear and delicate, and the craftsmanship is extraordinary.Chu Yunxi was overjoyed when he saw the silver needle, holding the silver needle he couldn't put it down, thinking that although this needle is not as good as the thirteen stainless steel needles he had in his previous life, the craftsmanship is even more exquisite than the 'lettering on rice'.Then he carefully recalled the "Acupuncture Classic: Thirteen Acupuncture Methods of Meridians" handed down by the Chu family. After acupuncture and moxibustion for Li Mo, he saw that his condition had improved, so he put the needles into the long snake skin. Inside the wristband, I felt much more at ease, waiting for the arrival of the Qionglin Banquet.

It's just that before the Qionglin Banquet arrives, Mrs. Hua's invitation to the 'Burning Tail Banquet' for senior high school students has arrived.Since ancient times, China has regarded the imperial examination as "a carp jumping over the dragon's gate", and the name of this banquet means "the dragon burns its tail and goes straight to the blue clouds".Burning the tail is a metaphor for prosperity, and it is perfect to congratulate the first-time students.Therefore, in China, "Scholars first ascended to the throne and then moved out. Friends and bureaucrats congratulate them. They must set up wine, food and music for the feast, which is called 'burning tail'."

This time Mrs. Hua held a banquet in Qujiang, and sent people from the government to send stickers. Along with it was a beautiful and rich butterfly wearing a flower silk dress. Chu Yunxi didn't understand the meaning of this for a while, but this banquet should be I'm going to participate.Let's not talk about Madam Hua's noble status, but those who won the exams should not be offended, and Madam Hua's gift of needles must be returned.It's just this dress - she never liked such expensive and rich clothes, but Mrs. Hua sent someone to send the clothes along with the banquet stickers, just wanting her to wear them to the banquet.But 'she' is still in the period of filial piety, and her identity will be announced at the Qionglin Banquet. Since the emperor succeeded to the throne, she has respected 'benevolence and filial piety', and she will also be called 'unfilial' by then.Chu Yunxi looked at the clothes and thought.

"Huh, it's true that when the gold list was named, the bridal chamber was full of festive nights, and this big one was a young one, Chu Yunxi, how do you feel now?" Li Mo recovered from his illness, but his face was still pale.Today, he saw that the weather outside was fine, so he wanted to bask in the sun at the door and take a breath. Before he went out, he saw the stickers and clothes sent by the servants in Mrs. Hua's house, and his heart was even more blocked.

Hearing this, Chu Yunxi's heart moved slightly. With this dress and Mrs. Hua, the whole country knows that Mrs. Hua is romantic, and most Chinese banquets often invite prostitutes to serve wine. This banquet may not be a good one.Thinking of this, Chu Yunxi said: "Forget about Brother Li, you are 'seriously ill' and cannot do without my care, I will cancel the banquet for Brother Li." After finishing speaking, Chu Yunxi packed his clothes and started looking for Pen and ink are ready to write a letter to refuse.

"Stop pretending, I don't need you to take care of me." Li Mo replied sarcastically with folded arms.

"Yes, because..." Chu Yunxi put the paper he had just written on the table. After pulling out the needle and inserting it into several places on his body, Li Mo only heard "You will sleep for a few more days" before fainting.
