Dominate the ancient academy

Chapter 256 They are all old foxes

But maybe Shu Xiaoxiao chose a good place, or maybe these people worked particularly hard, anyway, everyone had a good harvest, and they even caught two rabbits. Overall, this activity was quite fruitful.

As for the various mushrooms everyone picked, Shu Xiaoxiao also took a rough look at them. There was no problem. There were quite a lot of mushrooms nearby, and everyone's basket was basically full.

It is definitely impossible to eat so many mushrooms in one meal, so take out the amount you need for today and spread the rest out in the yard to dry for easier storage.

In the kitchen, there is Chef Fang and two attendants helping out. After they pick the mushrooms, all they have to do is wait to eat them.

This yard is already spacious, and after Shu Xiaoxiao and Zhenzhu's efforts over this period of time, swings, lounge chairs, grape racks, small pavilions, small tables and chairs, small pools, etc. have been slowly added. The entire yard is not only beautifully decorated, but also very comfortable, which makes people want to mess around when they see it.

Lu Leran sat comfortably on the swing and sighed: "It's comfortable here, but it's a bit like a little girl's yard. It's too delicate."

It would be fine if they just lay down, but there were also men playing on the swings. There were also many flowers and plants in the yard, some of which were delicate, a bit like little girls.

"If you think you're too delicate, get off the swing first. Besides, who says these things can only be used by girls? Anyway, they're quite comfortable for me to use." Shu Xiaoxiao retorted calmly.

When she arranged these, she had anticipated this situation, but she was not happy if she didn't clean it up. She would stay here for more than one day or two days, so she must make it more comfortable!

Nothing was decorated to be exquisite, and the overall look was simple and elegant. Otherwise, she could have carved a few more flowers on the swings and lounge chairs, and added some decorations, so that they would all be works of art, which would have been beautiful enough.

Su Shiche leaned on the recliner, lazily saying, "I think this is pretty good. It's both nice and practical. When I have nothing to do, I can lie down here, recite some books, and enjoy the fresh air. When I'm tired, I can take a nap without having to move. It's more comfortable than sitting properly like us."

He sighed and said, "It's a pity that my old man said that if God wants to give a man a great responsibility, he must first make his heart and mind suffer, his muscles and bones tired, and his body hungry... He also said that he would not allow me to indulge in pleasure, otherwise my yard would be more comfortable than this."

He doesn't care about the young master or young lady, comfort is the most important thing, this reclining chair or this swing is so comfortable to lie on when the weather is good! What's the difference between men and women?

It is indeed comfortable here. Shu Xiaoxiao has also made some effort to make it convenient for her. There are three lounge chairs in the yard, one for her, one for Fang Yuchu, and one for Chu Shanchang. At first, Chu Shanchang disliked her for being lazy and idle, and for being distracted by trivial things instead of studying.

He also said that only those who have endured the most hardships can become successful, so he scolded her, but within a day, he became addicted to it.

I will never talk about throwing the recliner out of the academy again. I can just lie down there after dinner. It feels so cool.

Fang Yuchu was even more adaptable to the local customs. When Mr. Chu was talking, he just smiled and said nothing. When Mr. Chu was accepting his words, he was already drinking tea and lying on a recliner in the sun.

As for the swings, there are two of them, one for sitting and the other for lying down. Both are newly purchased. It is so comfortable to swing in the breeze.

I guess Mr. Chu will nag me when he comes back and sees the swing, but there's nothing I can do. Shu Xiaoxiao herself likes swings. She bought one in modern times and has played with it since she was a child. At worst, I can just find a way to appease the old man. This swing is a must.

Some of them were leaning or lying down, looking like a group of people not doing their jobs properly. Shen Guanqing, Shu Tingfei and others were sitting upright in the small pavilion newly built by Shu Xiaoxiao, sipping tea, looking like elegant and modest gentlemen, in sharp contrast to Shu Xiaoxiao and the others. On one side were other people's children, and on the other side were the ones who deserved to be beaten by their mothers.

Su Shiche rolled his eyes and quickly changed his angle. It was painful to look at these people's pretentious appearance. It was because of their behavior that they seemed particularly unprofessional.

Seeing Shen Guanqing's elegant appearance, Shu Xiaoxiao thought of the old fox-like Lord Shen, and was really curious. She slowly moved closer to him and asked in a low voice: "Brother Shen, has anyone ever told you that your father is like an old fox?"

Shen Guanqing raised his eyebrows in confusion: "What?"

"Is there anyone who says you..."

"Cough cough!"

It was only after Shu Xiaoxiao heard Shu Tingfei's reminder that she realized what a stupid question she had asked.

He quickly looked at Shen Guanqing and explained, "I mean your father, Lord Shen, is very smart. But he is not that smart!"

He raised two thumbs and repeated, "Very smart."

Shen Guanqing chuckled: "Xiaoxiao, you have to know that those who can stand firm in the court for many years are mostly old foxes, and there are also those who are hidden. No matter how innocent they look on the surface, they are all... old foxes. As for the stupid ones... well... there are very few!"

Shu Tingfei was already covering his face. What was the question his sister was asking?

Shu Xiaoxiao was also a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, it was time to eat. The big iron pot was not used after all, but we still cooked some big dishes, including fried chicken with mushrooms, braised rabbit, sweet and sour spare ribs, and Dongpo pork. Although there were not many dishes, the portions were very large. Each dish was served in a bowl, which was definitely enough to eat.

When Chef Fang saw the dishes in pots, he was very surprised, but now he can take it indifferently, so the dishes in a few pots are very important.

Several dishes prepared by Chef Fang were all delicious, but their favorite was fried chicken with mushrooms. Since they also participated in picking the mushrooms, they thought this dish was the most delicious, and most of the time, their chopsticks were directed towards this dish.

The chicken was tender and boneless, and the mushrooms were delicious. It went really well with rice, and in a short while, most of the dish was gone.

"Hey, why are these dogs on the table? So many dogs?" Su Shiche asked puzzledly.

"Stop shaking, what are you shaking for!" Zhou Hekang yelled at the table.

Shu Tingfei also stood up and shouted, "Where are you running, little thief? Take my punch." With one punch, the whole table collapsed.

Shu Xiaoxiao realized something was wrong when she saw this. She was hit! She stood up and shouted, "Zhenzhu, Zhenzhu, hurry up and call the doctor. Something happened!"

When Zhenzhu heard the noise, she hurried out to call the doctor. Fang Yuchu, who came out right after her, saw Shu Xiaoxiao walking towards the large vat next to her, and hurried over to ask, "Uncle, what's wrong?"

Shu Xiaoxiao went straight over, hugged the big jar and started shouting, "Grandpa, Grandpa, I missed you so much! Why did you come to see me just now?"

Fang Yuchu:.........

Just when I was at a loss, another person came out of the room: "Where's the turtle shell? Where's my turtle shell? Where's my turtle shell? My turtle shell is lost."

"I'm so thirsty, so thirsty. Someone come and give me some water. I'm dying of thirst. Please give me some water!" As he said this, he walked to the water tank and prepared to pour water.
