Chapter 44 Passing the Examination
Xiao Ji soon went to another county and found the cheapest hotel to stay in.
The next morning, she got up and went to the building materials market.
She walked to the middle of the building materials market and saw an antique courtyard with two majestic stone lions in front of the door.
There is a large pond on the left outside the yard. There is a large banyan tree on the edge of the pond.
Xiao Ji felt that this place was so familiar. It feels as if you once lived here. What's even more strange is that the bracelet on her hand glows blue again.
She involuntarily walked up the stone steps of the doorway. I saw that the roads in the courtyard were connected, the mountains and rocks were dotted, the gardens were splendid, and they were clear and exquisite. A picture popped into her head.
She saw a woman in a pale pink dress, with green silk curled into a wishful bun, and only a blue phoenix hairpin inserted. As she knelt in the hall, several servants stood behind her with menacing looks.
Kneeling in front of her was a man dressed in a miserable green robe, with his hair tied up in a bamboo hairpin, talking to the old man and the old lady who were sitting on a large sandalwood carved chair above the hall. Both the old man and the old lady were dressed in fine silk in ice blue.
Suddenly, the old lady reprimanded loudly: "Huaicai, you don't have to intercede for that slut anymore, she is pregnant with your child and wants to elope with another man, what is this?"
The old man on the side had a straight face, and he also had an unforgivable expression.
Huaicai knelt forward and hugged the old lady's legs: "Mother, you just watch Mingyu conceive your grandson, forgive her!"
The old lady snorted and twisted her face to the side.
Huaicai turned around and hugged the old man's leg again: "Dad, you just see that Mingyu is pregnant with the blood of our Gongsun family, you can spare her this time!"
The old gentleman was stunned when he heard this, and his expression softened slightly. After a while, he slapped the arm of the chair heavily: "Alas!
Then he waved his hand: "That's it, that's it, for my grandson's sake, I'll spare you this time, and if you do it again in the future, don't blame me for being polite." ”
"But from now on, you are not allowed to take another step out of the house. With that, he got up and brushed his sleeves away.
The old lady was also helped up by the maid and followed.
"Thank you, dad, thank you, mother. Huai Cai kowtowed vigorously.
He looked up and saw that they had gone away, so he quickly stood up and turned around to help Mingyue: "Come, Mingyue, get up!"
Huaicai helped Mingyue up and walked towards the door of the hall.
Xiao Ji looked at the bright moon and was stunned, she actually looked exactly like herself. That Huaicai and Yu Yi look exactly the same.
Xiao Ji rubbed his eyes and shook his head again. There was no one in front of him, except for the empty hall.
She continued to walk forward and heard a series of voices coming from the wing room on the left: "Madam, you hurry up." It's going to be good right away. ”
She heard another woman squirming in pain. Xiao Ji looked through the crack in the door and saw the woman he had just seen lying on the bed, sweating profusely and her face pale. The midwife on the side was standing at the end of the bed with her hands covered in blood, looking at her anxiously.
Suddenly, "Wow Wow Wow Wow ......", a baby started crying.
After a while, the midwife came out with a child in her arms and said to the Huaicai outside: "Congratulations, master, Mrs. gave birth to a little master." ”
"Okay, great! Come on, come on, I'll see!" Huai Cai smiled as he hugged the child.
Xiao Ji took a closer look, the child looked very delicate, very much like Huaicai.
Suddenly, she heard someone inside shouting, "Come on, come on!" Madame fainted. ”
Huaicai and the midwife hurriedly ran into the house.
After a while, she heard someone crying in the house, and then a blue phoenix flew out of the house and flew towards her. The bracelet on her hand also suddenly glowed with a blinding light.
The blue phoenix got closer and closer to Xiao Ji, and with a "rancid" sound, it got into the light of the bracelet and disappeared.
Xiao Ji was stunned. She touched the bracelet and felt a little hot.
When she went to see the house where the baby had been born, there was no one to men. Only some old antique furniture and a dilapidated wooden bed.
A gust of wind blew, and she suddenly heard the sound of the flute she heard outside the ruined temple in her dream, which was coming from outside the courtyard.
She hurried out of the yard and saw that under the big banyan tree next to the pond, Huai Cai was dressed in white and was playing a flute under the tree. The sound of the flute was like weeping, and it was very sad.
Xiao Ji suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his left chest like a pinprick.
She involuntarily walked under the banyan tree, but there was nothing.
All she saw was people coming and going by the edge of the pond. At that moment, her phone rang. When she saw it, it was Mr. Li who sent her a message and asked her how she had gained today.
Only then did she suddenly come to her senses, and she only cared about staying here, and actually forgot about business.
She took one last look back at the courtyard and walked briskly into a building materials store.
was busy until two o'clock in the afternoon, and she still did not invite a customer who promised to go to Nanchang.
Seeing that the ten-day period was about to expire, she only had the last two places left, one was Jiujiang and the other was Hukou.
Jiujiang is the most livable city she has ever seen, this city is not only beautiful, but also has a very harmonious cultural environment and a strong cultural heritage. She also met a handsome young man she didn't know to help her carry her luggage, and Poyang Lake, which was lit up in the hazy night.
What made her most memorable was a very large billboard standing on a tall building, which read: High place, life is scenery. This phrase lingered in her mind for a long time.
She reluctantly left Jiujiang, and then arrived at the last destination - Hukou. Here, she met one of the most important people for her to complete the assessment.
His surname is Dai, born in the 60s, a native of Nanchang, with a little dark skin, and many white hairs hidden in his sparse black hair. His voice is slightly hoarse, but talkative and humorous. I have been in the building materials business for several years.
He happened to be busy when she went to his shop. She saw that this shop was bigger than the others. The samples placed are relatively complete. And from the conversation of this boss, it can be seen that he is very good at business. So, she waited quietly.
After Mr. Dai was done, he went to greet her. Invite her to sit down for tea.
They talked very happily, Xiao Ji said that he would invite him to Nanchang to meet with Mr. Li, and Mr. Dai readily agreed. But there is a condition, Xiao Ji must wait for three days. Xiao Ji agreed.
In the first two days, Xiao Ji often went to his store to help, and sometimes chatted with him. After coming and going, it slowly became familiar.
On the third night, Mr. Dai invited her to dinner and asked her to drink a bottle of beer, and then promised her to go to Nanchang with her early the next morning. Xiao Ji doesn't drink alcohol in the first place, because if he drinks a little bit of alcohol, he will get drunk, and his back will hurt a lot. Later, when I went to the hospital for examination, I found out that there was a problem with my gallbladder.
There was no way, in order to complete the assessment task, she still drank a bottle of beer. As a result, nothing happened, but Mr. Dai seemed to be a little drunk.
Later, Mr. Dai asked her to dance again, and Xiao Ji also went. She is very sober and always keeps a certain distance from Mr. Dai. After the dance, Mr. Dai sent her back to the hotel. He sent Xiao Ji to the door of the hotel, and Xiao Ji asked him to go back. Mr. Dai was so angry that his face turned green, but he was not good enough to attack, because his plan to take advantage of Xiaoji by drinking completely failed.
However, Xiao Ji didn't sleep well all night because of back pain.
Fortunately, Dai is always a man who counts, and early the next morning, he and Xiaoji took a train to Nanchang.
When he arrived in Nanchang, Mr. Li was very happy to see that Xiao Ji came back with a customer. He and Xiao Tu invited Xiao Ji and customers to dinner at the big hotel. Except for Xiao Ji, everyone else drank a lot of alcohol and was very drunk.
Later, Mr. Li and Xiao Tu also went to Mr. Dai's house and sped on Mr. Dai's economic strength. As a result, this customer still did not negotiate, but Xiao Ji's assessment was also successfully passed.
A few days later, Dai Man and Xiao Zhang also returned. It doesn't seem to have much to gain. Mr. Li's face was very ugly.
