The third uncle said: "What you Sanniang said is right, and it is also for your good." Like you are used to being free, you will definitely not be restrained. Besides, your body is thin, I'm afraid you can't do this heavy work. ”

Li Jidao: "In this way, then I'll think about it again." ”

The third uncle said again: "Since you also asked, the third uncle will definitely ask you, don't be discouraged." ”

Li Jidao: "That's so annoying, the third uncle asked me." ”

Sanniang said: "Go back, you can do your own business, don't care." Here, let your third uncle help you ask. ”

Li Jidao: "Then let the third uncle and Sanniang worry a lot, I still have something at home, so I will leave first." ”

The third uncle said with Sanniang: "Don't think about it when you go back, work hard." ”

Li Ji didn't answer, quit the two, and went straight home in a sullen mood.

Back at home, Li Wansan and his wife, together with his wife Wu, asked what the result was. Li Ji explained in detail that the third uncle disliked his thin body and needed to find someone to entrust him.

Li Wansan only blamed Li Ji for his ineffective work. If Li Ji wants to blame, he can only blame himself for not being capable, and he has to find someone to do things, and he can't blame others for ignoring you. His wife, Wu, did not speak immediately, but only watched from the sidelines.

This annoyed Li Ji again, and the two almost quarreled, but their mother Hou persuaded them to separate them, and persuaded their daughter-in-law Wu to go back to the house, and then calmed down.

After this incident, Li Ji and his father Li Wansan had a very bad relationship and complained to each other. His wife, Wu, is also taciturn, very unreasonable, and complains all day long.

Li Ji is often resentful and distressed because of this, he only feels lonely and helpless, and he is absent-minded in doing things all day long. Going to the market to set up a stall to write, it is also a hanging, it is difficult to get into it, and there is no confidence and spirit in the past.

Everyone else saw it, some didn't say it, some didn't care, only he was depressed, and he didn't know where to go.

The so-called life has no other, he has a life. Life has to go on, life has to go on as usual. It didn't take long for life to take on a new test. The capital is going to hold a township examination, and the news reaches the city, and the opportunity for scholars has come. Li Ji thought that his opportunity had come again, thought about it back and forth, pondered it, and decided to go to the exam, and he couldn't miss the opportunity. The current situation is a big motivation for me to participate. Seeking fame is more about urgently changing the status quo of life.

I immediately told my family that I was going to take the exam. His wife Wu showed a long-lost smile, and helped Li Ji to salute and prepare dry food; Li Wansan also told him back and forth, and told Hou to prepare some coils for his son.

On the second day, before dawn, the family began to make arrangements. Li Ji settled down for a while, asked his wife to take care of his parents, teach his parents to take care of the house, bring his luggage and dry food, and start to hurry alone to take the exam in the capital.

After leaving home, Li Ji counted the hardships of leaving home. It's really a feast and a rough sleep, hungry and hard. is also the same as other examination personnel, at least there is a reading boy, or a close person to accompany him, but he is alone, no one to take care of, not even a person to talk to, so he is not alone.

It took nearly a week to reach the capital. Li Ji found an inn near the test center and temporarily settled down to prepare for the upcoming exam.

After three days of intense and exhilarating exams, the exams ended without panic. Almost all the scholars are the ones who have learned in their lives, and they put all their efforts into the three-day exams in exchange for good results, seeking fame, and not being a scholar in vain.

This Li Ji is also full of enthusiasm, and he has learned everything he has learned in his life and is full of enthusiasm in the exam.

However, it backfired, but some aspects of myself, such as opinions, thoughts, cultural atmosphere, and artistic accomplishment, were not admired, hotly discussed, recognized, or even contrary to the current trend of thought, so they were disliked. A few days later, Li Ji still failed to change the fate in his hands, and this time he didn't win the first place. I only blame myself for my strength, and I can't stand in the moment.

He was also depressed and depressed, and returned to the inn, ready to pack his luggage and leave for home.

Coincidentally, as soon as he returned to the inn, he met a person at the head of the door, and Li Ji recognized this person at a glance.

It was none other than Ren Mei'er who met in the ancestral hall three years ago. It turned out that she was waiting for someone at the door. I saw her looking in the direction of the posting article, pacing back and forth anxiously, pinching her hands back and forth, and her heart was rushing.

Li Ji behaved very friendly, forgetting most of the unhappiness just now, walked over, and asked when he mentioned it: "May I ask the girl, but Ren Mei'er?"

Ren Mei'er replied in surprise: "How can you know my name?" ”

Li Ji smiled and said, "Girl, take a closer look, we have met somewhere else." ”

Ren Mei'er said strangely: "Really, let me take a closer look." After a while, he said: "There is indeed a trace of familiarity, but I can't remember it, is it a long time?"

Li Ji smiled and said: "Haha, the girl is a noble person who forgets things!"

Ren Mei'er's face flushed slightly, and she was embarrassed to explain: "Where, I really haven't remembered it for a long time." Childe might as well say it directly. ”

Li Ji said bluntly: "Xiaosheng Li Ji, whose name is Jicheng, and the girl are fellow villagers. We had a relationship in that ancestral hall in the past year. ”

Ren Mei'er pointed and said, "Oh...... You are Li Ji. No wonder it's so funny, you should have said it straight as soon as you came up, and you went around in such a big circle, but said that I am a noble person who forgets things. ”

Li Ji smiled: "Exactly." If you don't want to do anything else, it's a good fortune to meet you here, just to test your memory. ”

Ren Mei'er also asked happily: "Yes, why are you here, but what important things can't be done?"

Li Jidao: "I just arrived recently, this is not to take the exam, I stayed here for a few days, I never thought that I would meet you." ”

Ren Mei'er was surprised: "You are also here to take the exam?"

Li Jidao: "Yes, why are you here? I think it's also related to the exam?"

Ren Mei'er said: "Yes, although I don't take the exam, I came with my father-in-law and accompanied him here." ”

Li Ji pondered for a moment, and then said, "It turns out that you already have a family. And where are you now?"

Ren Mei'er said in a low voice: "Dare to ask if you have become a family?" My father-in-law went to check the list, and when I went enough, I didn't see him come back, so I waited here. ”

Li Ji replied: "Xiaosheng has also become a family. However, things did not fulfill people's wishes, so they were disappointed. The girl who dares to love must be very affectionate with your father-in-law, but I look forward to her return. ”

Ren Meier said seriously: "I have been in love with Xianggong for many years, and along the way, Xianggong cares for me very much. I feel sorry for each other, and the two of them tolerate and understand each other, support each other, and cherish each other. Then each has one in his heart, and cannot have two hearts. ”
