"Dare to ask Brother Chen, I'm afraid this thing was dug out of the tomb, right?" Lu Sheng pretended to ask casually. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Chen Jiaorong nodded: "It was made from the tomb, you haven't answered me yet, as my sister said, what kind of degree can be regarded as mutual understanding?" He shifted the topic to his sister's marriage.

Lu Sheng had already avoided it once before, and now that he was asked again, he suddenly sighed.

"This kind of thing can't be rushed. Brother Chen will see you in the future, and I have only known Yunxi for such a short time, so your family is so relieved of me?"

"You can say this, I was not at ease at first, but now I am really relieved. Chen Jiaorong smiled, "If you agree, we can double the dowry!"

Lu Sheng smiled bitterly.

He knew that on the one hand, Chen Yunxi really liked himself, and on the other hand, it was actually the Chen family who had been suffering from the fact that their daughter couldn't get married, and finally met a suitable one, so they didn't let go.

"Let's talk about this later, at least when my fame is confirmed. Lu Sheng moved out of the annual examination as a shield.

When Chen Jiaorong heard this, his eyes suddenly showed even more admiration. This is the temptation that as long as you respond, you can instantly become rich. If it were in the same situation as him, in this case, he would definitely respond to it, anyway, if he got married, he could marry a concubine and find three rooms, four bedrooms and five rooms. Although her younger sister Chen Yunxi has longer legs, which is similar to those with disfigured faces, she has physical defects, but there are other aspects of the plus.

"So, it's decided, wait for Brother Lu to take the New Year's test, and then make a decision, Yunxi is also not young, it's time to get married, and I hope Brother Lu won't delay. ”

Lu Sheng was helpless in his heart, so he could only nod. The two separated when they came out of the winery, and Lu Sheng saw that it was getting late, so he turned around and went home.

After a night's rest, he went to the academy the next day, and when he sat down in his seat, he heard a commotion outside.

"What's the matter outside?" Lu Sheng looked at Song Zhenguo, who was sorting out the scrolls on the side.

Song Zhenguo's face was gloomy, and he replied in a low voice: "Wang Ziquan's family is here. ”

Lu Sheng saw that many people in the school got up and walked to the window and door to look. Outside, too, there was the faint sound of women and children crying.

He stood up and heard a few of his classmates sighing.

"The people of Ziquan seem to be missing, a young woman with two children came to the house, I heard that his father was seriously injured in the official yamen in order to report to the official to find someone, and he couldn't afford to get sick when he went home, alas...."

"How can the government yamen beat people?"

"It's not that his old father doesn't believe that his son is drowned, and he kneels at the yamen and can't get up, but the new prefect has the most bad temperament for this kind of Diao people......"

"Pity this orphan and widow..."

"yes, it's a pity.... His father can't do it anymore....."

The more Lu Sheng listened, the more unpleasant he became, this Wang Ziquan's family was also a businessman before, although the business was not big, but he also had a small family wealth, but now he is ruined.

Song Zhenguo also heard the surrounding voices, squeezed away the people and walked over, standing with Lu Sheng.

"It's my fault, if I hadn't called him out that day...."

"Don't think too much about it, it's none of your business. Lu Sheng patted him on the shoulder. But Song Zhenguo still had a gloomy face and didn't reply.

The two of them walked out of the school one after the other, and saw a pretty young woman, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with two children who were only one or two years old, kneeling on the avenue of the only way to pass through the college, bowing her head, wearing linen and filial piety, and wearing a plain white.

There are no less than dozens of onlookers around, and there is a trend of getting more and more lively.

"Let's go, go over and have a look. Lu Sheng pulled Song Zhenguo and took the lead in walking out.

"No, I'll go alone, it's my fault! I'll just go!" Song Zhenguo grabbed him and said in a deep voice,

Lu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and before he came back to his senses, he saw Song Zhenguo take three steps and two steps, stood in front of the young woman, and talked to the woman in a low voice.

Two college teachers also crowded in among the students from the surrounding colleges and stepped forward to inquire about the situation. Soon, Song Zhenguo helped the young woman and the boy and quickly left the academy.

Lu Sheng also followed, walked out of the academy together, and followed the two.

Before they could take a few steps to catch up, they saw an official from the yamen coming and talking to Song Zhenguo and the young woman, and several people quickly got into a carriage and left.

Before leaving, Song Zhenguo made a gesture to Lu Sheng that he didn't need to follow, and asked him to go back to class.

"Don't delay the annual exam, go back! I'll deal with this matter!" Song Zhenguo shouted to Lu Sheng from afar, and then followed him into the car.

Lu Sheng watched the black red-striped carriage leave, and saw that it was a carriage style for the official yamen.

He stood at the gate of the academy for a while, then turned around and went back to class.

The matter of Wang Ziquan's family spread in the academy for a while, and it was quickly suppressed. Several times Lu Sheng saw the people from the government and came to talk to the students of several colleges, maybe they were prompted by the rumors to be suppressed. And Wang Ziquan's family didn't come to make trouble anymore.

Song Zhenguo has been a little more relaxed and relieved since he went together that day, and it is estimated that he has made some compensation for Wang Ziquan's family.

This disappearance case, after a period of uproar, quickly subsided. After the turmoil, the academy slowly returned to normal, as if it had never happened.

......................

Song family.

Song Zhenguo silently ate the meal sent by the maid, and set a table of chickens, ducks, fish and geese, but he just had no appetite and had something in his heart.

Outside the room, there was a faint sound of his father's footsteps and words passing by, and he didn't go out to greet him, but just sat in the bedroom and let out a long sigh.

They are also outsiders whose families have moved to this mountain city, and the old father's business has just opened up, he is very busy, and he is in a bad mood, plus he is even more depressed.

"But why doesn't my father understand Jun'er's goodness? If I marry her and enter the door, I will definitely have a harmonious family and a successful career in the future, with Jun'er's help, and a stable family, I will definitely be able to succeed in the New Year's examination..."

Puff puff puff.

While he was eating, a black pigeon suddenly flew from the window, staring at him with a pair of pink eyes.

Cuckoo.

The pigeon cries twice.

When Song Zhenguo saw it, his face suddenly showed joy.

He walked over in a few steps, hurriedly grabbed the pigeon, took a roll of paper from under its feet, and quickly unfolded it.

What Jun'er said before, don't worry about it, Jun'er forced him to die, and the bow finally agreed, tomorrow night on the holiday, as long as Brother Song can take out 10,000 taels of silver, he will redeem Jun'er. Brother Song don't worry, although 10,000 taels is more, Jun'er has also had a lot of savings over the years, which can at least make up for most of it.

Tomorrow night, Brother Song must come alone. Jun'er, I will give my body to my eldest brother completely, Wangjun... Pity....'

After Song Zhenguo finished reading it, he only felt a burst of irrepressible joy from the bottom of his heart rushing to the top of his head. He straightened up, his face rapidly flushing, clutching the scroll of paper and walking back and forth in the room.

"Jun'er.... Jun'er.... You're mine! I'll take you out of the boat and out of that damn place. Give you a name!" he clenched his fists and muttered lowly. But he forgot all the advice that Xiaojun had reminded him before not to go to the painting boat on the Smoked Satin Festival.

After being agitated in the room for a while, Song Zhenguo slowly calmed down.

"But Jun'er said before, don't go to the painting boat for the Smoked Satin Festival, are you afraid that I will be deceived?"

He thought about it, his face gradually calmed down, and he stood there and hesitated for a while.

"When I saw Jun'er, I asked why I didn't let the Satin Festival go to the painting boat before, maybe there was some special reason. ”

With full joy, Song Zhenguo began to prepare silver tickets, 10,000 taels of silver, which was also a large amount for him. Some of the family funds he has accumulated over the years have also been spent on Jun'er during this time, and it is also a little difficult to gather 10,000 taels in a hurry. Although Jun'er said that she would fill most of it herself, how could he be the one who let his women bear these burdens?

"No matter, let's go to my sister to borrow some turnover. He didn't eat anymore, and hurried to the door to go out. Suddenly I remembered something again and stopped.

"Such a good thing, although Jun'er was embarrassed and said that he wanted me to go alone. But this kind of happy event, how can it be shared and celebrated by two friends? Song Zhenguo quickly sat back at the desk, studied the ink and poured water, and began to write letters to his only two friends now.

But just before he began to prepare the pen and ink, he hesitated again and put down the pen.

"Forget it, I'd better go alone. lest there be extraneous branches, which will only increase the variables. When the matter is settled, it is okay to inform the others. ”

He quickly went to his sister and borrowed fifteen thousand taels of silver from there, saying that he had invested money for his own business, and soon everything was ready.

.........................

The annual exam is getting closer and closer, and Lu Sheng's family also sent Qiao'er over, and even sent a thousand taels of silver tickets, which can be regarded as supplementing his expenses in recent days.

But Lu Sheng also knows that the family has been selling all kinds of real estate shops and preparing to relocate, and because of the explosion in Jiulian City, many people have been relocated, and the price of shop real estate has also depreciated greatly.

So being able to give him another thousand taels of silver is already an expense squeezed out of his teeth. After all, the Lu family is now in a period of ups and downs.

The turmoil slowly subsided, and Lu Sheng slowly put Wang Ziquan's matter behind him, began to concentrate on improving himself, and also began to find a way to make money.

"There is a clear spring in the north of the mountain! There is juanhuang in the red ditch! There are sparrows all over the ground outside Baisha Town! There is turmeric flowing on the surface of the new recruit river!"

"My hometown~~~~~My hometown~~la~~la~~la~~~........"

"Lalala!~~~Lala~~~!"

"Lalala~~~!lalala!!"

Lu Sheng stood at the window expressionlessly, listening to the noisy and sharp male singing.

He was woken up at about three o'clock in the morning, that is, he was upset at midnight, and then he saw the procession outside one after another, some with sharp voices, some with rough voices, constantly passing through the streets.

At this time, there was a long line of people singing loudly with suona on the street, dressed in red, red, blue and blue, mostly uncles and aunts, beating drums and smashing gongs, shouting trumpets, which was the folk song warm-up before the Smoked Satin Festival, and slowly rushed towards the direction of the city center.

What made Lu Sheng even more speechless was that the people who came out to watch the excitement on the surrounding streets didn't feel noisy at all, but happily followed the team, and some even sang along. There are also special officials of the yamen to maintain order.
