The guy was stunned with one or two scattered silver hair on the tray, one or two? What a tael! When Liang Sanye was happy, he rewarded the guy with more than that! Who is this person?

The guy looked at Chen Qing and hesitated for a long time and didn't dare to speak, but the work ordered by the shopkeeper had to be done, and finally he gritted his teeth and knelt down, "Please tell me the truth...... Who the hell are you?"

Chen Qing was dumbfounded, Liang Zijun was also stunned for a moment, and then smiled strangely. Chen Qing pulled for a long time and saw that the guy still refused to get up, so he glared at Liang Zijun and asked, "What the hell is going on?"

Liang Zijun leisurely poured a glass of wine, smiled and asked, "How much did you gamble downstairs?"

The guy rubbed his head and replied with a dog-legged smile, "There are more than 200 taels in our store alone, and several companies next to us who have got the news have also opened gambling plates, and it is estimated that it will not be less than 1,000 taels of silver." Most of them are three-seven, you see?"

"I want 3 percent of the color head," Liang Zijun touched his chin and looked calculating.

"I don't dare to call the shots, the little one went to ask the shopkeeper, you later" The guy got the letter and immediately went downstairs to report.

Chen Qing's face was cloudy, and when he asked Liang Zijun, he smiled mysteriously, and only gave him one sentence, "You just wait for the cashier."

After a while, the man came to pass the word, saying that the shopkeeper had agreed, but several other shops said that they would have to wait another quarter of an hour. Liang Zijun generously agreed, and pulled Chen Qing to continue eating and drinking.

Chen Qing was a little drunk after being poured a few cups, leaned back in the chair and took a nap. Usually I would have gone to bed at this hour, and it is estimated that the Liang family should also go home to rest.

Liang Zijun went out for a trip, and when he came back, he threw a bag of loose silver on the table with a "bang".

Chen Qing was startled after opening it, and asked the reason before he angrily punched Liang Zijun. This guy actually gambled on the relationship between the two, and also paid 3% of the gambling money of all shops.

"I don't cooperate with them, I don't even have to earn a tael!" Liang Zijun dragged the silver back disappreciably, "Don't pull it down"

"Why not? One person and half of it" Chen Qing started to rob, and the consciousness of small farmers completely exploded. Liang Zijun helplessly looked at his daughter-in-law who was a fan of money and counted it carefully twice, before he took his share of care into his arms, and then gave him a bright smile with a bright face.

"Look at your stupid look, let's go, the master will take you to play" Liang Zijun was in a good mood, and after carrying the silver, he led people out of the box generously, and refused to let go of the shy palm without twisting it.

Until he walked out of the tavern, the heat on Chen Qing's face did not dissipate. Raise your eyes and look around, good guys, there are a bunch of people crowded outside the doors of each store, and there are people who are pushing and shoving and constantly pouring out, vying to see what Liang Sanye's daughter-in-law looks like?

Liang Zijun regretted it, and picked up a mask on the side of the street and buckled it on Chen Qing's face, blocking those hot eyes. Is his third master's daughter-in-law casually being watched? He glanced coldly around and led people to stride towards the back street.

"It's not much, it looks like a man, at most it's a little handsome."

"Really, I don't even see it."

"I think it's pretty good-looking, don't you see that the third master is very nervous?"

"That's it, in exchange for your daughter-in-law, are you willing to take it out for others to see?"

"Who dares to look at it, see that I don't gouge out his eyeballs!"

"Gotta got, keep betting, just lost the money, how can you earn it back on the third master, isn't it?

"Pull it, gamble on yourself, or a tael of silver, it's strange to win, it is estimated that his daughter-in-law encouraged her husband to give one or two"

"Cut~ Then I'll bet XXX"

Chen Qing pressed the mask on his face and didn't want to take it off until he walked out of the flower street. Liang Zijun held it down, "Don't take it off, it is estimated that it will spread in a while, if you don't want to go to the street in the future, you have to hide it, or wear it honestly"

Chen Qing sighed, the silver really didn't come for nothing. Walking to another mask booth, Chen Qing picked out a fox mask and handed it to Liang Zijun, "I want to wear one piece"

Liang Zijun smiled and put on the mask, and in the spirit of sharing the joys and sorrows with his daughter-in-law, he walked straight to the next street under the strange eyes of a group of passers-by.

Even if he wears a mask, the merchant will not mistake the coquettish coat that is the only one in Qingping County, and it is not difficult to think that the two of them are Liang Zijun and his wife.

Liang Zijun didn't lie, there are a lot of fun places in Qingping County, but most of them are hidden in the deep alleys on the street corners, and the small stalls on the side of the road also have some new gadgets, and you may miss it if you don't pay attention.

The two walked around the interesting boundaries of Qingping County hand in hand, and Liang Zijun led Chen Qing to a wonton stall, "His wontons are the best one in Qingping County, you are waiting for me here, you are not allowed to run around, and you are not allowed to compete for the jackpot, do you hear?"

Chen Qing nodded again and again, anyway, he could see the grand scene on the other side of the square here, so there was no need to squeeze in to join in the fun. Liang Zijun got Chen Qing's assurance, so he lifted his mask and gave an order inside, and hurriedly ran in the direction of the official mystery.

As soon as the time comes, the square officially hangs up the huge palace lanterns, and the surrounding crowds slowly gather to the square.

At the beginning, a few puzzles were only used for hot spots, and the color heads given were not heavy, and a few simple puzzles were interspersed with the people to enjoy themselves. He Zhixian wore regular clothes and sat in the stands, surrounded by his family members and several wealthy gentry of the county, and all those who had meritorious service were present in this column.

The proprietors of the major commercial houses sat on the side, laughing and talking with the county magistrate. When Liang Zijun arrived, it was already three o'clock, and at this time, most of the official riddles had been solved, leaving two more difficult and final riddles.

After meeting with Liao Fanzhi and others, all he received was ridicule and sarcasm, Liang Zijun knew that he was at a loss, and laughed again and again, promising to be the east another day, and he would make amends before giving up.

"Did you have fun with your daughter-in-law?" I heard that you also accounted for 3% of the gambling money on the side of Huajie," Liao Fanzhi asked in a low voice.

"You are really well-informed, gambling with my Liang Sanye's family, I didn't teach them enough to lift, and you still want to take advantage of me for nothing?" Liang Zijun snorted coldly.

"Oh oh~ What about my sister-in-law?" Liao Fanzhi really wanted to see what the pretty person who could make Liang Zijun happy and not think about it looked like.

"Send it back, let's see the riddle!" Liang Zijun lied with a dark face.

"Cut~" Liao Fanzhi pursed his lips disdainfully, stingy! Turning his head and telling Liang Zijun with great interest what the previous mysteries were, and who won the prize.

"Yes, he said: You can ask the king, not the son of the minister. Ping Gong said: Good" Liang Zijun read it silently, and the corners of his mouth pulled lightly, "It seems that there is a great character this year~"

"No, it's just that Shen Shuzhi came back from the exam" Liao Fanzhi looked jealous with a folding fan.

"Don't you still have to prepare for the palace exam, why are you back now?" Liang Zijun frowned, no wonder the mystery of this year is so different, I think Mr. also intends to mention Shen Shucheng.

"Didn't the palace test be changed to this spring, I heard that his mother Si'er sent a letter to him to rush back for the New Year, and he will go south after fifteen," Liao Fanzhi said with a sour head on the side.

Soon, the penultimate riddle was revealed, "The old monk also has the intention of a cat, and he doesn't dare to bark in front of people", and as soon as the riddle came out of the square, there was a small discussion sound.

Liang Zijun and Liao Fanzhi glanced at each other, both smiling and silent. "Don't you answer?

"Don't answer, let's let the poor students show off, I still have to recuperate and grab the jackpot" Liang Zijun pulled the folding fan out of his waist, unfolded it with a snap, and blocked the side of his face.

"I'm going to die, how do I know such a skinless and faceless guy as you?...... No, shouldn't it be for your daughter-in-law? aren't you, just one or two, tsk......" Liang Zijun listened to his friend's dislike, and silently bowed his head and calculated, is it cost-effective to get this account back with interest?

In the end, the mystery was revealed by Shen Shucheng, since the entrance examination, Shen Shucheng's unique arrogance has gradually been introverted, replaced by calm and atmospheric, arrogant but not dry, advance and retreat, both manners and words are remarkable, everyone on the stage nodded one after another, and couldn't help praising "The future is terrifying, this son has become more and more stable after the entrance examination, not bad......"

"Motivation and forbearance come from", so motivation and forbearance have benefited from what they cannot. "The so-called motivation is to shake the heart, to endure it, to make the will strong. It is a metaphor for tempering the body and mind after hardship, and persevering despite external resistance. ......" Shen Shu rewrote his hand on his back and said it clearly, not only clarifying the source and meaning, but also interpreting the riddle as "moving the spring heart" and "forbearance □□", which respectively summarized the meaning of the two poems in front of and after the riddle, and the meaning was very in place.

The riddle is full of fun, the riddle is full of words, and the contrast between "movement" and "forbearance" is strong, and it contrasts with each other. Although the riddle is said to be heart-warming, it does not make people feel obscene, and although the mystery involves "sex", there is no feeling of □□.

Many students in the square have benefited a lot from this explanation, and they can't help but praise it, and even Liang Zijun clapped his hands and praised the good explanation.

This room was very lively, Chen Qing was eating wontons and listening to the guys in the store with relish. Sure enough, the official riddle is not something that ordinary people can participate in, which brings the riddle of ancient texts and sources Chen Qingguang was dizzy when he heard it, and the solution was even more clueless and impossible to talk about.

"Yo~ What a coincidence, we met again" The white-clothed scholar suddenly appeared in front of him, Chen Qing was stunned, and hurriedly pulled someone to ask, "Where have you been?" I have been looking for you for a long time, but have you seen the message I left for you?"

"See, unfortunately it's a little urgent and staggered, it's not too late to see you now, are you interested in guessing the last riddle?" The white-clothed scholar asked his buddy for a bowl of chaos, and sat down generously, completely unaware of the unfamiliar relationship.

Chen Qing shook his head, "It's too difficult, I just can't guess it, these 25 taels are the previous lottery"

The scholar in white smiled and pushed back, "You can keep it"

Chen Qing immediately shook his head, "No, this is what the two of us got together, without your help, I'm afraid I don't even understand the rules."

Seeing that Chen Qing insisted, the scholar in white did not refuse, and happily accepted it, "Why don't we work together again?"

"How to cooperate?" Chen Qing wondered.

"I'll guess, you can answer," the white-clothed scholar said, pointing to the table.

"Since you can solve the riddle, why don't you answer it yourself? I heard that the county master will personally reward you, isn't this the opportunity for scholars and students to gain fame?" Chen Qing vetoed.

The white-clothed scholar shook his head and chuckled, "Fame is like a floating cloud to me, I have no intention of going to school, and I don't want to get fame, the life of idle clouds and wild cranes is the world that Xiaosheng yearns for"

Is there really such a high-spirited and pure person in the world who regards fame and fortune as nothing? Chen Qing's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he looked at the white-clothed scholar as a rare species, but the white-clothed scholar was embarrassed to raise his sleeves again and again to cover it, "Brother Tai Mo is not laughing at Xiaosheng's ambition?"

"Don't be presumptuous," Chen Qing couldn't help muttering. I don't want the white-clothed scholar to burst into tears as if he had met a confidant. Students in the world are all confused by fame and fortune, and spend their lives to learn in order to gain fame. "It is a great blessing for a small life to be able to meet my brother in this life"

Chen Qing was overwhelmed by this sudden touch, and withdrew his palm that was clenched by the white-clothed scholar and said comfortingly, "You...... Don't get too excited, I'm just talking about it...... Besides, it's not what I said, it's what the ancients said, and I'm just borrowing it."

"No, no, even if you borrow it, how many people can understand Xiaosheng's intentions?" The white-clothed scholar wiped away his tears and sighed emotionally, and couldn't help but dispel his previous calculations. Zhengse apologized to Chen Qing "I'm sorry"

Chen Qing seemed to be at a loss for the second monk, isn't this person stupid at reading, what is wrong with this? I really don't understand these ancient scholars, some of them have a very high self-esteem and are annoying, and there are also crazy and crazy people like the white-clothed scholar who is so puzzling. Or is it that Shen Shucheng is a scholar who is easy to get along with, that is, he is upright and modest and cautious, and I don't know how he is now, can the scientific examination be smooth?

Chen Qing's thoughts drifted, and he didn't know that the white-clothed scholar's heart had turned a hundred times. He originally wanted to push a fiddling countryman like Chen Qing to the front of people, and then make a lot of money by manipulating the gambling market, he did this in the first place, so he didn't think about whether the person he used would be in trouble afterwards.

Anyway, this kind of honest person who doesn't have a few taels of ink in his stomach will not find out the mystery, and after the deed is completed, he will be able to gain fame and fortune, so why not? Maybe he will push it and achieve it overnight, and it will be integrated into the ranks of the third class. Who would have thought about a conversation, but suddenly felt that doing this would really push him into the cusp, this kind of honest person has no measure in his heart, maybe he will suffer a dark loss, Mu Xiuyu Lin Feng wants to urge him, if he is deep in the quagmire because of himself, wouldn't it be a sin?

The white-clothed scholar who regarded Chen Qing as a confidant secretly made up his mind that the gambling board had been arranged safely, and he had to continue to act, even if he helped him win the jackpot, he was bound to lead the trouble, so as not to affect his brother.

Chen Qing didn't understand it, so he no longer burned his brain, but regarded it as a quirk unique to readers, turned his head and beckoned the guy to serve another pot of good tea, planning to chat with the white-clothed scholar while waiting for Liang Zijun to return.

Chen Qingyuan was sitting against the wall, and when he turned his head, he revealed the pale cyan streamer tied behind his head. The white-clothed scholar stared at the streamer for a long time, so long that Chen Qing also felt a little awkward, reached out and pulled the ribbon and smiled, "I didn't mean to hide it......"

Before Chen Qing finished speaking, the white-clothed scholar rushed out of the door with a miserable face, Chen Qing stood up and wanted to think about it and sat back on the stool in frustration.

It's rare to meet a guy who can say two sentences, even if he is a little hypocritical, Chen Qing also thinks it's good to make this friend, and wants to introduce him to Liang Zijun. Who would have thought that this person would be the same as others as soon as he knew that he was not a master, and he was too frightened to run away......

Feeling depressed, Chen Qing didn't want to stay here and wait for Liang Zijun, so after paying for the meal, he got up and went outside to breathe. The night breeze was blowing slowly, and Chen Qing was in a trance, is there no place for him Chen Qing in this world?

In the distance, the territory of a woman is very wide, but the road of the man under his feet is getting narrower and narrower, and finally shrinks to the soles of his feet and forces him to move.

Chen Qing shook himself secretly, no, he can't compromise, keeping his heart is the true character of a man, if he even forces himself to become a woman, then he will be completely wiped out of the world, the newborn Chen Qing is beckoning to him, but he can't go over, and he doesn't want to go over.

The lonely Chen Qing hugged himself and shrunk in the corner, as lonely and sad as the villain in the depths of his heart......
