Chapter 34

In order to help settle You Shu down, Ji Changye spent a considerable amount of time thinking. He first wiped away all traces of You Shu being the Di son of the Wang family. Even if outsiders could guess slightly, they would not find any evidence. He also contributed scholarly honor and bought a house for him. Come to think of it, based on You Shu’s intelligence and wisdom, in a few years, he would be able to win top marks in the imperial examinations and stand out among his peers. However, with his personality of not liking to talk and not liking communication, but to only eagerly eat and eat, it would be a bit difficult to mix into the officialdom, but when the time comes, he has deep foundations and can also help him find a leisurely position.

One moment he was worried about You Shu being bullied by someone and at the next moment, he worried that You Shu couldn't take care of himself. Ji Changye thought and pondered again and again, and then he took out some of his private savings to help You Shu buy a few shops. After that, he worried that You Shu wouldn’t be able to manage the store well, so he wantonly bought some farmland for him. In this way, no matter how You Shu was tossed in the Capital, it is enough for him to eat and wear warm clothes, and it is considered to be on the right track.

Thinking about it this way, Ji Changye's heart felt a little uncomfortable, especially when You Shu bought all the furniture and decorations and put it in the new house on the same day, waiting for Song shi and her people to come over to stay, and that feeling poked at his lungs. He feels flustered when the teenager is too attached to him, but he is more restless when the teenager tries to leave him. What kind of mentality is this?

Ji Changye was very distressed. When dealing with You Shu’s issue, he just felt that it was ten times more difficult than dealing with the political affairs of the court. Getting closer won’t do and it’s worrying when he’s far away, no matter where he is placed, it is difficult to adapt.

His heart was in a mess and he couldn’t bear to see the young man's little simple-minded appearance, and under the banner of preparing for the exam, he found hundreds of books and asked him to read and understand everything thoroughly within three days.

You Shu just stepped out of the door and was going to go buy cakes when he was brought back to the study by Ah Da and Ah Er by his collar. They put him behind the table full of books and joked, "Be honest. Put one book aside after reading it, Master will come back at night to check."

"Then you guys help me buy Fu Ji's plum vegetable braised pork pastry. One box is three copper plates, buy ten boxes, oh yes, this is the silver." You Shu untied his pouch and tossed it over and reiterated, "Hurry up, the shopkeeper only makes 20 boxes a day, and you can't buy them if you’re late.”

"Kid, you can really eat. They only make twenty boxes and you pack half. How can you keep asking for seconds at the dinner table after eating so many snacks? You look at these two meats on your body. You eat so much that everything’s went to a dog’s belly! Because you’re like this, how can Master be rest assured after you are gone? No wonder after buying a residence, he also bought shops and farmland. Looking at his behaviour, he’s probably itching to buy the whole Capital for you." There was a lot of envy in Ah Da's tone.
