By the window on the second floor, Li Hao suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure and shouted loudly: "Elder Brother!" On the street below, a man in dark brocade clothes was riding a horse, followed by a boy. Just in time.

Hearing someone calling him, he quickly raised his head to see who it was.

When he saw Li Hao in the window, his eyes lit up. He immediately jumped off the horse, handed the horse to the boy and headed to the restaurant. When Yan Fu went up to the second floor, Li Hao stood up and greeted him.

When he returned to the table, he introduced to his parents: "This is my elder brother Yan Fu, who has always taken good care of me in the academy." Then he introduced to Yan Fu: "These are my parents. Please stay with my parents today."

Look at me, come here to eat."

Yan Fu first saluted and said hello to Li Jian and Wei. Then Wei and Li Jian stood up and asked Yan Fu to sit down. The four of them sat down again. Li Hao asked, "Brother, where are you going? Have you eaten before?

Let’s eat something together.”

Yan Fu said: "We have already had dinner. There is a polo match in the north of the city today. I made an appointment with someone to go there. I originally planned to take you and Jingwen there to see it."

Li Hao was still somewhat interested in the sport of polo, so he said: "Then next time, if there is another polo club in Xiu Mu, I will go with you, okay. But I can't ride a horse."

Yan Fu said: "Then go and learn. Originally, Jingwen didn't know how to ride a horse. Later, after I took him to a few polo meetings, he became able to ride a horse. However, Jingwen's temperament is calm and careful, so it won't be too difficult then.

I love to go. But every time there is a polo match, a lot of people from our academy will go there, as well as a lot of scholars and officials from other cities. There is not only polo, but also pot throwing and ball-thumping. Sometimes

There is also a poetry meeting, you should go and see it if you have time. Just like the teacher, it turns out that these things are all good."

"Yeah, I really don't know about this." Li Hao said curiously.

"Even if you are studying in the academy, it is not bad to study hard behind closed doors, but I have seen your temperament, and you are not like your second senior brother who is dull and can study hard. And if you become an official, then

You will inevitably have to deal with officials from aristocratic families, and these things will not be of much use at that time, but it will be a benefit after all."

After hearing this, Li Hao felt very satisfied and said, "Thank you, senior brother, for your teaching." After chatting for a few words, Yan Fu stood up and said goodbye and left.

After Yan Fu left, Mrs. Wei said to Li Hao: "Looking at your senior brother's behavior, we can rest assured that you will be in the academy. Even if someone takes care of you, nothing will happen to you."

Li Hao replied: "Yes, although the teacher is quite strict in the course, in private the teacher and the two senior brothers take good care of me. You don't have to worry." Next, Li Hao chatted with his parents.

On the 10th, I encountered something interesting while studying in the academy, and then I mentioned that soap is quite popular in the academy, so I could give Li Hao a few more pieces next time I come.

The reason for his popularity is still because of himself. When Li Hao was using soap to wash clothes that day, when he was seen and asked about it, he happened to lend it to others. As a result, everyone who borrowed it said it was very useful. Then the students in the hospital

The news spread immediately, and I guess that my parents' good sales are partly due to themselves. It's a pity that Xiu Mu's parents also took a break today. It seems that many people today can't buy it even if they want to.

After dinner, the three of them strolled around the market for a while. Li Jian and Mrs. Wei were about to go back to the village, but they were still a little reluctant to leave. Li Jian comforted him: "We will wait until our soap sales are good in the future."

Okay, save some money and we will buy a house in this city, then we can let Haoer go home and live there, and you can see her every day."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wei smiled and said, "You have to think about it. The houses in Yangzhou are so expensive. You can buy them if you want."

Li Jian said: "It all depends on people. We never thought that our family could earn so much money now, and Hao'er is studying well now, so our family will naturally be better and better in the future."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wei said, "Yes, our family will get better and better. It's a pity for my sister. I don't know how that girl Minglan is doing now."

Li Jian knew that Mrs. Wei was thinking of her late aunt, so he comforted her: "Didn't Minglan take over his old lady's place to live? Naturally, she can live a good life. You don't have to worry, the worst thing will happen in the future."

It's time, you can go to Bianjing and see Minglan."

After hearing this, Mrs. Wei seemed to have changed her mood and said nothing more.

Of course, Li Hao didn't know what happened here, otherwise Li Hao would probably know where he was.

After waiting for the holiday here, Li Hao began to study again. However, in addition to reading and understanding, he also had the task of practicing calligraphy. Because what he wrote was described by Master Qin as being a bit showy,

It is really hard to discern the words without any energy, so I specially gave the post, so that I must practice 200 words every day and submit it. In this way, Li Hao's reading life will be more fulfilling.

But this also made this small-class elite teaching a proper one, and Li Hao had very few people to deal with in the academy. Moreover, he was young, but he had an adult mind after all, so as soon as he came to the academy, he had to interact with the people in the academy.

People of the same age could not play together, and the older ones were not willing to take Li Hao with them. So apart from studying hard every day, I could only spend the whole day with my two senior brothers, Yan Fu and Yan Jingwen.

This also made Yan Fu and Yan Jingwen a little worried about Li Hao's unsociability, and they wanted Li Hao to go out more and play more, so when they were having a rest later, there happened to be a polo club, so Yan Fu and Yan Jingwen went ahead of time

Talk to Li Hao and let's go together when the time is arranged.

For this reason, Li Hao specially dragged Yan Fu's young boy Chengdong to the market to inform his parents.

On the day of the polo club, Yan Fu came to pick up Li Hao in a carriage, and Yan Jingwen went to the polo ground. They walked for more than half an hour before arriving at the polo ground. After parking the carriage, Yan Fu took the two of them in.

Along the way, they were introduced to the two of them: "This polo field alone is a thousand paces long. There is also a place next to it for making Chuiwan and throwing pots. When the crowd is the most crowded, most of the officials and scholars in Yangzhou City come.

It’s very lively.”

When Li Hao saw it, it was indeed the case. It was exactly as Han Yu said. The corner of the Bian-Si interchange county and the city was built a thousand paces flat as if cut. The short wall was winding on three sides, and the drums and red flags soared. This flat polo ground was as flat as a cut. It was as flat as a cut.

It is large, surrounded by low walls on three sides, and the other side is a pavilion for watching batting. Red flags are hung around the court, and drums are played to cheer during the game.

When Li Hao was fascinated, Yan Fu thought that Li Hao liked it and wanted to participate. He looked at Yan Jingwen and said to Li Hao: "Didn't you say you don't know how to ride a horse? Today I will teach you first."

Once you learn how to ride a horse, you can then compete on the field. And when you have time in the future, I will also teach you how to beat balls and throw pots. They are always a lot of things to relieve your boredom."

Li Hao smiled at this time and said: "I don't dare. You are going to take the exam this year. It's good to take a bath occasionally to relax. How can you really take the time to teach me. If this is the case, the teacher is probably the first

You can't spare me, so don't try to harm me, senior brother."

After hearing this, Yan Jingwen said: "That doesn't matter. Your senior brother is not free, so I can come and teach you. I'm not good at equestrian skills, but I'm good at throwing pills and throwing pots."

At this time, the three of them had already walked to the stable. Yan Fu first picked a gentle pony for Li Hao, and then let Li Hao ride on it. First, he held the horse to let Li Hao adapt to the bumps. After Li Hao got familiar with it, Yan Fu

He and Yan Jingwen each took a horse and rode on it. Then Yan Fu took Li Hao's horse and trotted beside him.

The feeling of riding a horse roaring and galloping was so good, Li Hao thought to himself, this is much more majestic than driving a car.

He started to speed up while running, Yan Fu held his hand to keep the same speed, and then gave Li Hao various key points and details. Li Hao gradually became able to get started on his own, so he asked Yan Fu to let go and said that he would try riding a horse by himself.

After he let go, he and Yan Jingwen followed on horseback.

As a result, after Li Hao had finished two laps, he felt that his butt had lost all feeling, and the sides of his thighs were very painful. He quickly wanted the horse to stop, but at this time, the horse was not so obedient, and Li Hao could only seem to follow behind.

Yan Fu stopped only after asking for help.

After Li Hao got off his horse, he walked with a straight figure, which looked a bit funny. Yan Fu and Yan Jingwen laughed secretly, and Li Hao felt ashamed and angry. Seeing this, Yan Fu said: "Just now

It's the same with horseback riding. Once you've ridden it well, you'll be fine if you know how to use it skillfully."

But even so, Yan Fu still looked at him with a smile, which made Li Hao extremely angry.

Seeing this, Yan Jingwen said: "Since this is the case, then I will take Li Hao to the poetry club over there to have a look, just for him to sit and rest. You can go play polo over there, isn't there someone waiting for you?
