Chapter Ninety-Eight: Cicada Clothes

Although Su Fang did not participate in the banquet of the Su family, and he had not seen Master Zong since Shuangyuan, this did not prevent him from telling every day that there was an uncle who was a fellow acquaintance, and there was always much more news than ordinary people.

“… How can such a person become a eunuch, and he can get ahead in the imperial examination. A student said.

Su Fang smiled, shook his head, and said: "You see you don't understand, if he doesn't become a eunuch, he can't have today's talent, the orphans of the sect are poor, and he only has the opportunity to study after entering the palace, if he doesn't enter the palace, he won't have the opportunity to study at all." ”

The students around looked envious and said, "Su Fang knows so much. ”

Su Fang said a little proudly: "Of course, I know a lot. ”

Xue Qing, who had been writing with his head down, raised his head and said, "Then do you know which girl the sect chose to take to the capital?"

This is the purpose of Zong Zhou's coming here, and it is also the thing that everyone is most concerned about, and the students immediately looked at Su Fang.

Su Fang blushed slightly, and said: "Although I don't know, everyone will know right away, because Master Zong will leave the day after tomorrow, and he will tell the other party about the selected people today, and they will all be sent to Shuangyuan tomorrow." ”

It's quite fast, Xue Qing said in his heart.

Zhang bumped into her and said, "Great, my sister doesn't have to go to pick rattan secretly....I sold a lot of baskets." ”

Although it is said that Lord Zong Zhou has nothing to do with Zhang Bao's small family, but the butterfly flapping its wings still has an impact, there are many vines near Shuangyuan, Zhang Bao's sister always goes there to cut rattan baskets and sell them, because Shuangyuan lives in Zongda, there is a bit of security, and it is inconvenient to pick rattan.

Xue Qing smiled and said, "Whether it's good or not, I can't say." ”

She didn't hear any useful news from Su Fang's high-minded talk, she wasn't too interested in hearing Zong Zhou's origin, although the past was related to what kind of person he became now, but for Xue Qing, this Zong Zhou was already such a person, it was useless to know how he knew in the past..... and nine out of ten sentences said by Su Fang were exaggerated.

Xue Qing was too lazy to listen anymore and packed up the scroll and walked out, took out the spear hidden in the tree at the top of the mountain and practiced, then walked to the cliff and tied the rope around his waist to climb down the cliff, hesitated, Xue Qing did not go to Zhizhitang, and decided to go home early.

Since Su Fang said that today is the time when Zong Zhou informs the candidates, she still cares about the Guo family....or to put it more bluntly, she cares about herself, if Guo Baoer leaves the Guo family, her positioning will have to be replanned.

A carriage came from behind, Xue Qing didn't look back to avoid the roadside, but the carriage stopped beside him, and someone lifted the curtain and said, "Young Master Xue." ”

Xue Qing looked at it and saw that it was Pei Yanzi, so he nodded and said, "Young Master Yanzi." ”

Pei Yanzi said: "Are you going back to the city?"

Xue Qing responded, this is an invitation to take the car, to sit or not to sit?

Pei Yanzi said: "When did Mingyue make some words?"

Unexpectedly, he asked this, Xue Qing was slightly stunned, shook his head and said, "No." ”

Pei Yanzi nodded and said, "Okay... Farewell. The curtain was lowered, and the carriage went forward.

Xue Qing stood in place and didn't react, watching the carriage go away, and laughed again, so can poetry also be used as carriage and horse fare?

………

At this time, in Chang'an City, there were officials running in all directions, stopping or passing by the door amid the prayers of various families.

Guo Huaichun's luck was not good, an official did not pass by but called the door, Guo Huaichun could only open the door and invite in, looking at the paper handed over, his hands trembled a little.

The official said impatiently: "The adults will see it quickly, and the little ones will have to go back to their lives." ”

Guo Huaichun took a deep breath, tore open the letter paper, opened it to see the words written on it, and shouted: "Great." ”

Guo Huaichun shouted, the official was startled, it is not too good to receive the post, it is those who have not received the post who really want to shout that it is too good.

Mrs. Guo also came over after receiving the news, originally heard that the official messenger came to the door, and suddenly her feet were weak, and she called two girls to help her come over, and when she heard Guo Huaichun's applause, she jumped again.

Guo Huaichun said: "It's not Bao'er. ”

I see, the official understands that good and bad are relative, and being chosen, but the person selected is not the person who cares the most, that is still too good.

Mrs. Guo grabbed Guo Huaichun's arm to look at the name on the paper and said, "Which one is it?... Cicada clothes.."

Guo Baoer staggered to the door and was stunned when she heard this sentence.

"Who is Cicada?" she said.

Mrs. Guo didn't have time to pay attention to her, so she shouted to the servant woman and said, "Hurry up and invite Sister-in-law Song and Cicada Yi to come over." ”

Sister-in-law Song is not a slave of the Guo family, and she can be worthy of an invitation, but it is precisely because Sister-in-law Song lives in the Guo family that she is more unconfident, in fact, strictly speaking, although her man's surname is Guo, he is not considered to be the native of the Guo family, but he uses his surname to stick to a relative.

Sister-in-law Song is actually very envious of Mother Xue, although she is not surnamed Guo, she occupies a great favor, and she can be the son-in-law of the Guo family in the future, and she will not worry about eating and drinking for the rest of her life.

Hearing that someone came to call Mrs. Guo's invitation, she felt uneasy.

"The Guo family's house is small, it's not that they said at one time that they would expand it and demolish it, so we have nowhere to go. She said.

Cicada Yi helped her and said, "Mother, you think too much, no, there are so many people living there, Master Guo is not that kind of person." ”

Xue Qing said that Master Guo should be a good person.

Sister-in-law Song said: "I just expect you to be a good person, but I immediately have no place to live and feel at ease." ”

Cicada Yi hung her head and blushed and said, "I'm not married." ”

Sister-in-law Song said: "Don't say stupid things, how can a girl not marry, Miss Bao'er also has to marry... Xue Qing can't help it. ”

Cicada Yi said: "Xue Qing is very good. ”

Sister-in-law Song glared, she had already come to the front hall of Master Guo, she was busy no longer talking, straightened her clothes, walked in with the cicada clothes, and shouted Mrs. Shi Li from a distance.....

Mrs. Guo had already gotten up with a smile and walked over, "Sister-in-law Song....this is a cicada clothes, sure enough, the longer the better." ”

Cicada clothes rarely can go to Mrs. Guo's eyes, and they see very little, Song's sister-in-law was flattered and hurriedly took the cicada clothes to salute again, and before the cicada clothes got up, Guo Baoer jumped over.

"Are you the cicada clothes?" she said, with a bit of a suddenness, she saw it beside Xue Qing, "It turned out to be you." Then he was furious, "How am I inferior to you? Why should I choose you instead of me?"

Cicada Yi was stunned.

Mrs. Guo pulled Guo Bao'er away, smiled at Sister-in-law Song, and said, "Sister-in-law Song, congratulations, Cicada Yi has been selected to go to the palace in the capital to serve the Queen Mother." ”

Cicada Yi's brain boomed, seeing Mrs. Guo smiling, seeing her mother covering her mouth in disbelief, and seeing Guo Bao'er looking indignant, but what they said couldn't be heard clearly.

“... It wasn't like there was a shortage of people to serve that day... In fact, it is the master of the sect who wants to choose someone...."

“… Cicada Yi is also thirteen years old... That's why they're all called..."

"....I didn't know who I liked at the time, but I just gave the list to others...."

“.. I sent news today, our family has chosen the cicada clothes..."

"Sister-in-law Song, are you willing?"

How can this be unwilling, Sister-in-law Song cried with joy, she knew that those big families in the city were unwilling to send the young ladies there, for them it was to be a messenger, but they didn't care about these small households, in the Guo family as a messenger, where could it be compared to going to the palace as a messenger.

That's serving the Queen Mother, Amitabha, the gods and Buddhas have opened their eyes.

"Yes, yes, yes. Sister-in-law Song saluted Mrs. Guo again and again, and grabbed Cicada's arm, "My son, you are going to the capital, you are going to see the Queen Mother, are you happy?"

The cicada clothes were shaken back to her senses, happy or not....she is going to the capital to serve the queen mother, then, what should Xue Qing do? In case the young lady doesn't want him, he won't have a family for the rest of his life, who will give birth to a child for him to support his old age?
