Chapter 25 Pragmatic(2/2)

Why did he suddenly imitate himself and ask for a thank-you gift? He was really spoiled by Luozhong’s atmosphere!

In front of Xu You, Zhu Rui didn't know how to speak for a moment. It took him a long time to say reluctantly: "Speaking of thanksgiving, the White Horse Temple has stood for a hundred years and has tens of thousands of followers, but they have little savings. Neither Ziyuan nor Cai

The doctor, or Gongsun Shaojun, will all express their opinions... I just don’t know how much Gongsun Shaojun wants?"

"You don't need a penny." Gongsun Xun pointed his hand behind the stove. "As long as you thank me with this thing!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Rui and Xu You both looked behind the stove, but both laughed.

"So it's this thing." Zhu Rui immediately stood up and picked up the thing, and then bowed and saluted Gongsun Xun again: "I'm telling you why Gongsun Shaojun is staring at the stove... It's just a civet cat catching rats.

, although it is rare, our temple has many connections with the Western Regions, so it is really nothing. Since you want it, no matter what happens, I will give you a nest!"

Gongsun Xun was not polite and hugged the cat directly: "It's not that I covet the cat in your temple, but it's because my widowed mother lives in western Liaoning and I'm afraid she will be lonely. You don't know that my mother once said, 'I would like to give away a thousand pieces of gold to give you a gift.

Please give me a cat'...do you really have a litter?"

"I'm going to get it for Young Master right now." Zhu Rui was already worried, so he naturally laughed easily and went straight out and called his servants to get the cat.

For a time, only Xu You and Gongsun Xun were left in the wing.

Leaning slightly, Xu You couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart when he saw Gongsun Xun stretching out his hands to tease the lazy cat, and then suddenly he twirled his thin beard with a smug look on his face: "Brother Xun, are you very lonely these days?

Or are you someone who simply cannot stand loneliness?"

"Brother Ziyuan, what do you mean?" Gongsun Xun stopped gesturing, but continued to stroke the cat's fur.

"You and I are both pragmatic people, so why bother pretending like those people?" Xu You laughed when he heard this. "You are actually the same as your eldest brother Gongsun Bogui. You are very utilitarian. You wish you could have something every moment.

What you get...it's just that you are a hundred times smarter than that elder brother. He is doing twice the result with half the effort, and you are doing twice the result with half the effort. But now, he is partying all day long and thinks he is powerful, but you know that you brothers are in trouble again!"

No wonder Cao Mengde will kill you in the future! When Gongsun Xun heard this, he couldn't help cursing secretly in his heart, but the smile on his face did not diminish: "Life is like sailing against the current, and it is natural to encounter difficulties..."

"Why are you so hypocritical?" Xu You shook his head repeatedly.

"Forget it!" Gongsun Xun said with a restrained smile. "Brother Ziyuan, I won't hide it from you. These days, I am indeed a little frustrated. I had never been praised by the two teachers before, and I felt like a trapped animal. But now

I was praised by the teacher and got to know many people through this, but I don’t know how to get along with these talents. Take the people you introduced to me, for example, you are from the same hometown, Fengji, Yingchuan Xinping, Xiping

Liang Hansui...oh, and Chun Yuqiong, whom I just met a few days ago. These characters are all top young talents in Beijing. I am very happy to get to know them. However, I can only get to know them.

That's all, because Han Sui, the worst among them, is now a third-level minister, and he is afraid that he will be promoted to a court official in the blink of an eye. How can I, an uncrowned scholar, continue to make friends with them? "

"That's true." Xu You sneered when he heard this. "There are only a few people who love money like me... But Brother Xun, are you too utilitarian? You also know that you are just an uncrowned scholar.

In this case, you have done a great job, so you can’t let everyone in the world revolve around you, right? You must know that people’s suffering is not enough..."

Gongsun Xun was about to retort, but at this moment, there were messy footsteps outside the door, as if Zhu Rui had come to fetch a "nest of cats", so the two of them immediately fell silent.

In the evening, Gongsun Xun, carrying a large bag of cats and bamboo slips of the "Forty-Two Chapters Sutra", took the coachman back to the small house next to Liu Kuan's mansion in the rain. As soon as he returned to the room, he didn't wait.

He poured out a litter of cats and heard his brother Gongsun Zan's eager voice: "Ah Xun, do you know something big happened in Luozhong?!"

Gongsun Xun, who was soaked all over, disagreed: "But the west city is flooded? I already saw it when I came..."

"Hey!" Gongsun Zan was speechless. "You don't know, I learned at Yuan Mansion today that Yuan Benchu's mother is seriously ill. I'm afraid she won't be able to survive the autumn rain, and she will go to see King Youdu in ten days...

In other words, the leader of Sergeant Luo, Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu ​​will be back soon! This is an opportunity for you and my brother!"

Gongsun Xun was neither impatient nor impatient, and remained speechless. However, a cat meowed suddenly from behind:

"Meow..."

--------Dividing line--------

"Some people may look respectable on the surface, but in fact they don't even have a cat behind them." - Aunt Gongsun.
