But that girl is different, the environment he is in is relatively closed, his heart seems to be distracted in terms of reading, and there is nothing else to distract him, so in the opinion of this old gentleman, if the girl can participate in the imperial examination, then the achievements she has achieved will definitely be higher than the young man in front of her, after all, the young man in front of him is still just a white body, of course, everyone is optimistic that when he participates in the next Xiucai examination, almost everyone who knows or does not know is saying that this young man is definitely the best candidate to be admitted to Xiucai。

To be able to do this at his age is already a great achievement in itself, but in the old man's heart, if it is replaced by the girl in his memory, it is estimated that he is definitely more powerful than the person in front of him, and he may have achieved the fame of Xiucai now, then he is indeed the youngest junior in the provincial city in the past hundred years.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, but he didn't say any more information and words, but Li Xiucai was in a hurry, he finally laid so much groundwork, which caused the old gentleman to say some information about the female disciple he used to be without suspicion, but how should he continue to ask without arousing the old gentleman's suspicion or crookedness?

As soon as his brain turned to his heart, Li Xiucai deliberately showed an unconvinced look, and snorted coldly with his nostrils before he said, old man, I know that the kid's performance is a little formless now, but in the provincial capital since the kid has been observed for so many years, anyway, I have never seen a better child than me, old man, the girl you said can be more intelligent than me, this is simply a hard thing to believe, is the girl you are talking about is a woman in other places or in some noble families？

Seeing the uneven look of the young man in front of him, the old gentleman didn't feel offended, after all, young people, should have such a temperament that does not admit defeat in order to achieve superhuman achievements in academics, the child in front of him is obviously not without too many setbacks since he was a child, in fact, such a thing is not a good thing for him, in line with the psychology of good money, the old gentleman wanted to downplay or ignore the past, but now he has changed his mind.

Through this period of contact, this old gentleman also has a heart for Li Xiucai in front of him, he saw such a talented and beautiful young man, but because he was too proud in his heart, if it was because of this pride could prompt him to forge ahead, but of course it was good, but too proud may affect his academic problems, so it is better to rub the arrogance of the kid in front of him with the female disciple he used to be, after all, the child in front of him, alas, the contact also made him very agreeable.

And the most important point is that no matter what, Li Xiucai's character is recognized by this old gentleman, and he knows that the conversation between the two will not spread and reach the ears of a third person. So he doesn't have too many worries about mentioning the female disciple in the past now, as long as he mentions this matter and reminds the young man in front of him a sentence or two later, it is estimated that this matter will not reach the ears of another person, the old gentleman's idea is really good, he doesn't need to remind you of a few words, and he will not mention this matter to anyone again, but he has this matter firmly in his heart.

Or that this old gentleman never thought that Li Xiucai would actually find him to get acquainted with him deliberately, and the two got along so well, it was also deliberately created, angry that this Li Xiucai had ill intentions or good intentions, in order to be able to extract the information in front of him from his mouth, and this old gentleman also thought that he had done a good deed, and he was complacent about one thing that was of great help to the young man in front of him.

Anyway, at that time, the old gentleman really talked seriously about the female disciple he once was. Your qualifications are indeed good, and they are also considered hard-working, so everyone is more optimistic about you, but remember that you can't be proud of this, you must know that in the imperial examination, Feng is full of all kinds of difficulties, the unpredictable world, if you are so proud, it is not good for yourself, you must know that the girl I just mentioned, indeed do not talk about you in terms of qualifications, and more importantly, her hard-working degree is far beyond you. Although I haven't seen him for two, three, three or four years, I can roughly guess if I think about it, if this girl can keep studying, the height they have reached will definitely not be lower than yours, and the most important thing is that this girl is indeed from this province. And although his family is good, but. It's not a girl from a big family, it's just a merchant family.

At the beginning, when he heard the old gentleman's lecture to himself, Li Xiucai was actually a little stunned, they thought that they used this kind of agitation method, and the old gentleman should directly tell him that there was more information about the girl, but they didn't expect to attract such a cliché preaching. Although Li Xiucai has never shown a particularly arrogant appearance, but a long time ago because of his unsociability, only many people thought that he was a sign of pride, so he had actually heard such words many times, and every time he felt very wronged, he would refute a few words at first, but after being trained more, he also learned, every time he came to this time, he showed a submissive appearance, and those people were able to waste a little less saliva and save him some time for reading.

In recent years, as he has made progress in his studies, far surpassing his peers, there are indeed very few opportunities to hear this kind of words, and those people have changed from shrinking to another kind of recognition or pursuit. Hearing such familiar words again, Li Xiucai didn't know it was himself for a while. Disappointed that he didn't get the information he wanted, he should still miss the tone that once made him strangely familiar. It's just a feeling of crying and laughing.

But fortunately, the second half of the old gentleman's message is still the information of the last sentence, or the content that Li Xiucai desperately wants to know, and being able to hear such a sentence already makes Li Xiucai feel that he is being misunderstood, or how childish he is becoming, is worth it.
