Song Si went to the Dean’s courtyard in a familiar way.
The dean was not yet awake, only the waiter was cleaning the courtyard, when he heard footsteps he looked up.
When he saw that it was Song Si, he was clearly stunned, and then he came over quickly, dragging his broom and stopping Song Si at the door, “How did you get in here?”
The rules of the academy were extremely strict, and each person had an access card, so it was difficult for anyone who was not a scholar or a master to enter.
Since Song Si had already been expelled from the academy, her entry card had naturally been confiscated.
“I’m looking for the dean.”
Song Si’s voice was eager.
“The dean is still awake, you go out first!”
“Dean! Dean!”
The boy was startled by Song Si’s violently raised voice and was just about to raise his hand to cover his mouth when the dean’s not-so-clear voice came from inside the house, “Who’s making a racket outside?”
“I, Song Si.”
There was a moment of silence in the room before the Dean’s voice came out, “Let him in!”
The boy moved aside his body and Song Si walked quickly to the door of the house, pushing it open and entering.
The dean had just gotten dressed and gotten off the bed, and was about to put on his shoes.
“Dean!”
Song Si walked over quickly, “The student has found evidence of a false accusation!”
The dean paused in his movement to put on his shoes, “Where is it?”
“Please come with me, Dean!”
Without thinking, the dean put on his shoes and followed him out with a piece of clothing draped over him by the way. He thought the evidence was in the courtyard, but he didn’t expect Song Si to take him straight out the door and into a carriage.
On the carriage, apart from Song Si, there was also Song Wan Yue and Gu Yi, and as soon as he got on the carriage, their eyes burned into him.
The dean was looking at him so much that his heart shivered.
“Dean, please have some tea.” Gu Yi handed a cup of tea to him.
“Dean, you eat the pastries.” Song Wangyue brought two plates of pastries in front of him.
Song Wangyue, he had met before, Song Si’s younger sister. Gu Yi, whom he was meeting for the first time, did not look like Song Si’s younger brother, and did not look like an ordinary rich family’s son.
As if he could see the doubt in his eyes, Gu Yi introduced himself, “My name is Gu Yi, Song Si is my elder brother.”
Dean,……
The introduction was the same as no introduction.
But Gu Yi thought he had made it clear, thinking that the dean had understood his identity, and said with a smile, “The human and physical evidence are at my home, a little farther away from the county. Dean first have a cup of tea, eat some snacks, pad your stomach, wait until you get home I will treat you to a big meal.”
The dean didn’t understand what the meal was, but he could see that Gu Yi’s family was well off, otherwise he wouldn’t be wearing clothes made of cloud brocade, which was hard to buy in this county. This cloud brocade was hard to find in thousands of dollars, and was hard to buy for even the most wealthy families.
He looked at Song Si, the Song family even had such relatives?
Song Si did not understand what was in his mind, and thought he thought the road was too far, so he explained, “Please forgive me, we will be there in half an hour.”
Since he was already on the carriage, the dean did not want to go down. But his face was unwashed and his hair unbound, and he looked a bit unkempt.
He straightened his hair, which was hanging down his back, and straightened his clothes before he lifted his tea.
When he lifted the lid, he was even more surprised to see a tiny piece of bud inside, but it was a top quality Mao Jian.
“Doesn’t the dean like it? I have other teas here.”
Gu Yi said, turning around to open the hidden compartment on the carriage.
“No, no, no, I like it very much.”
Dean finished and cherished a small sip, the refreshing scent seeped into his internal organs and every pore on his body instantly opened in comfort.
“Good tea!”
A box of tea was pushed to put in front of him, “Since Dean likes to drink it, this box of tea is for you.”
The top quality Mao Jian, one tael of tea leaves is one tael of gold. The box in front of him was not large, but it could also hold at least two taels of tea leaves.
The dean was slightly shocked and his hand was a little unsteady as he held the tea jar. He looked at Gu Yi carefully for a few moments and saw that he looked sincere and did not look like he was being polite to him, so he shook his head, “I can’t accept this.
“It’s just a box of ordinary tea leaves, we have plenty at home.”
The dean was so shocked that he could barely speak, and lowered his head and silently drank two sips of tea before he could suppress the surprise in his heart.
Song Si did not know how precious this tea was, and hearing Gu Yi say that there was plenty at home, and seeing that the dean really liked it, she respectfully pushed the box containing the tea to the dean, “It’s not something valuable, so if the dean likes it, take it and drink it.”
The dean’s hand shook, and the tea in the tealight almost spilled out, he opened his mouth, wanting to tell Song Si the value of this tea ……
Song Wan Yue also followed to help, “Dean, just take it, for the sake of my big brother, we are sorry to make you come all the way in the early morning.”
“It’s not that I won’t accept it, it’s really that this tea ……”
The dean’s words were not finished when he was interrupted by a question from outside, “Stop, can’t you see the city gates are not yet open?”
Xiao Si, who was sitting on the front carriage board, jumped down and took out a piece of broken silver from his arms and stuffed it into the hand of the man watching the city gates, “My young master is in a hurry to get home, so please do me a favor.”
They didn’t know the young master inside the carriage, but Xiao Si was familiar with him. In the past three or four years, their young master had often left the city when the gates were not open, and Xiao Si had often given them silver, and he was generous with it.
The man guarding the gates put the silver in his pocket and didn’t ask a single question, he turned around and opened the gate, “Hurry up!
The coachman raised his whip and drove the carriage out of the county.
“Dean, what were you trying to say?”
Song Si asked.
Dean had also left the city when the gates were closed for urgent matters, and not only was he questioned for a long time, but even the people guarding the gates had opened the curtains of the carriage to check. The Gu family’s carriage, on the other hand, did not even get a single word of questioning. The dean once again looked deeply at Gu Yi for a few moments, “I said that the tea was very good.”
“I still have quite a lot at home, if you think it’s good, Dean, I’ll ask big brother to send you a few more boxes later.”
The dean hurriedly said no, “This one box is enough for me to drink for a long time, tea leaves are not good if left for a long time.”
Afraid that he would send something else, the dean hastily changed the subject and asked if Song Si had studied her homework and done her essay after being expelled from the academy.
Song Si already knew from Song Wan Yue’s mouth that the dean had expelled him from the academy because he did not want him to face gossip and finger pointing, and was very grateful to the dean.
When asked by the dean, Song Si replied one by one.
The dean examined a few more of his essays, and when he saw that he had not given up on himself, he nodded in satisfaction, “This is a lesson for you, so you should be more careful in future.”
Song Si respectfully answered.
A little more than half an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of Doctor Yao’s mansion.
Several people got down from the carriage and Xiao Si went up and knocked on the door, knocking on it with a loud thud as always.
“Coming! Coming!”
The sound of footsteps accompanied by an answering voice reached the door, the door was then opened and Doctor Yao came out from inside with red eyes but in high spirits, “Young master, Miss Song, you’ve come, I’ve saved those two!”
