Xu Wenda and Su Heng stood outside for about half an hour, and the people didn't disperse much, Su Heng scratched his hair a little irritably, "But the list of hundreds of people, how can I look at it for so long, there are still so many people." ”

Xu Wenda has been waiting here, and he is also a little irritable in his heart, but compared to Su Heng, he is still too calm, "Don't be impatient." ”

After a while, he saw Su Heng's scholar running over with fine sweat on his forehead, and seeing that there was no happy expression on the scholar's face, Su Heng's heart chuckled and asked, "What was the result?" ”

The scholar glanced at Xu Wenda, who was standing beside Su Heng, then quickly lowered his head and replied, "Mr. Xu has been hit." ”

Su Heng had already guessed the result, but he still couldn't help but ask, "What about me?" ”

The scholar hesitated for a long time before he said, "I didn't see the young master's name." ”

If you don't see his name, you're off the list.

To say that there is no loss in my heart, it is impossible, after all, I have been studying hard for many years, but it seems that there is a strange feeling of relief inexplicably, Su Heng sighed, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

The scholar looked at Su Heng's eyes and was frightened, he heard what the young master said just now, it's okay, his own young master won't be broken, his heart was full of worry, "Young master." ”

Su Heng waved his hand a little weakly and sighed, "It's also a matter of heart." Come back in three years. ”

Xu Wenda, who won the Jinshi, naturally wants to stay here, after all, there will be a palace test after January, and after the palace test, he will wait for the imperial court to assign his position, and he may have to stay for a while longer.

But there was no point for Su Heng to stay here, so he told Xu Wenda about his plans, and in a few days with a few humanitarians who came to participate in the imperial examination, he planned to leave here.

Xu Wenda also expressed his understanding of Su Heng's decision, and the letter that he had planned to send was also put aside. I plan to let Su Heng take it back directly.

Xu Wenda thought of today's release of the list, and wrote in a separate letter to Tong Xue, "Today's list has been released, and I have been selected as a jinshi." I'm afraid I can't return, and I'm fine. In the affairs of the family, the lady is in charge. ”

Tong Xue has been living happily recently, and after the beginning of spring, Tong Xue finally got her wish to eat the elm money on the tree outside. It's still the taste in my memory, and although it's not delicious, I still feel happy to eat it once or twice once in a while.

The most important thing is that the peppers at home can be cultivated and planted, and Tong Xue's mood has become exceptionally good when he thinks that he will be able to receive a large number of Chaotian peppers in the autumn.

When I saw Su Heng again, the weather had already warmed up, and it was about to be summer, and Tong Xue saw Su Heng who suddenly appeared at the door of her house. glanced behind Su Heng several times, and found that Su Heng was the only one, and there was no figure he was familiar with, and he was lost in his heart.

However, he still cheered up and asked, "Su Heng?" How did you get back? ”

As soon as she finished saying this, Tong Xue knew that it was not good, just now because she thought about Xu Wenda, she said the wrong thing.

Since Su Heng is back, he did not participate in the palace examination later, and he estimated the time. It should be at this point, that is, it is off the list, and it is obviously inappropriate for her to ask this.

Su Heng didn't care at all. "The name fell to Sun Mountain, and it was boring to stay in Kyoto, so I came back."

Seeing Su Heng so calm, Tong Xue didn't expect that she was stunned.

Su Heng directly took out Xu Wenda's family letter, and then handed it to Tong Xue. said, "Sister-in-law, this is a letter written by Brother Xu, let me bring it back directly." ”

Tong Xue took it and thanked Su Heng.

Then Tong Xue heard Su Heng continue, "This time, when I passed through Qingyang Mansion, I heard about a big event. ”

Since Su Heng told her, it should be related to her, the only intersection between the Xu family and Qingyang Mansion is except for Xu Wenda's township test, probably Zheng Yu, Tong Xue asked, "Something to do with Zheng Yu?" ”

Su Heng nodded, when he heard the news, he was also shocked into a cold sweat, men all thought about their wives and concubines living in harmony, and there seemed to be many people who thought that this was something that could be done, but they never thought of how much filth was hidden in those places where they couldn't see, and how much there was no gunpowder fighting.

From the affairs of the Zheng family, Su Heng came to a conclusion, this man, this woman really can't be more, if there are too man, there will be problems.

"That's right." Su Heng nodded with some regret, "Originally, Brother Zheng Yu was also a talented person, but it's a pity that now I'm afraid of being imprisoned, and there is a knife on my head, and now the affairs of the Zheng family have been written into a book of romantic affairs." ”

Although Tong Xue said that she guessed something, it was very likely that she guessed wrong, so when she heard Su Heng say this, she was still very interested, "What happened?" ”

Su Heng said, "It is said that the cause is that Aunt Du was killed by Zheng Yu's wife who had just passed the door, and then Zheng Yuanwai was angry, and then Zheng Yu's wife committed suicide by taking poison." ”

Tong Xue said in her heart, sure enough, as she thought, this wife said that she didn't know that she had encountered something unbearable, so she did this kind of thing.

It stands to reason that this is left in a big family, a concubine died, and a young grandmother with no background who had never been in charge of the house died is not a big deal, cover it up, and this matter will pass, but who knows that Aunt Du is not the lonely person everyone thinks, and there is a younger brother who doesn't know where to come from.

So things get interesting.

Su Heng continued, "Originally, there was nothing big about it here, the Zheng family has already claimed to the outside world that Zheng Yu's wife died violently, and Zheng Yuanwai is time has come, as for Aunt Du, she didn't say anything at all, after all, a woman in a green building, no one took it to heart." But the problem lies in this Aunt Du. At Zheng Yuanwai's funeral, Du Jianqiu appeared and wanted to see Aunt Du, who would have thought that Aunt Du also had a younger brother who was lifted. As soon as this Aunt Du died, she stabbed the hornet's nest. ”

Aunt Du went to be a Qinglou woman back then, just for this younger brother, hoping that he would be able to have money to study, Du Jianqiu heard that his sister was dead, of course she didn't let it, "Du Jianqiu directly sued the Zheng family in court, if it is an ordinary person, it is naturally towards the Zheng family, but this Du Jianqiu is also a famous person, but it is a little difficult to do." ”

It's all about lifting people, and for Bo Gongtang, this can't be too hasty," so he could only investigate thoroughly, and it turned out that Zheng Yu's wife was poisoned by Zheng Yu. It's not suicide at all, I really never thought that Brother Zheng would be such a person, and finally pulled out the radish and brought out the mud. Together, a bunch of pickled things in the Zheng family's yard were turned out, and there were few clean ones in such a big backyard. If your sister-in-law doesn't listen to these things, lest she pollute your ears. ”

Tong Xue didn't expect that there would be so many stories in the courtyard of the Zheng family. Sure enough, where there are many people, there will be struggles, but fortunately, Wan'er didn't marry.

Su Heng sighed with emotion, "In short, the Zheng family is finished." Zheng Yuanwai died, Zheng Yu was taken into custody, and I heard that the case had been reported to the Criminal Department, and it was estimated that it would not be pleased. ”

Xu Wan thought of the Du Gongzi who lived next door to them, so she asked, "What about that Du Jianqiu?" ”

Su Heng shook his head. "I don't know, it is said that he has disappeared, no one has ever seen him again in Qingyang Mansion, maybe in another three years, the next time I go to the scientific expedition, I can't say that I can meet him."

After finishing speaking, he felt that what he was thinking about would not be able to come true, so Su Heng explained again, "However, I have stipulated that anyone in the family who has entered the lowly nationality. is not allowed to be an official, Aunt Du is a Qinglou woman, it must be a lowly status, Du Jianqiu can come to participate in the township test. It shows that the household registration must be separate from Aunt Du, but this time in the court, insisting that Aunt Du is his own sister, I think it will definitely have some impact on him, and it is a pity to say that the road to the imperial examination has been cut off. ”

It's only a half-day. Su Heng didn't feel sorry for it, but said, "But if you can't uphold justice for your sister, hide your name, and steal your life, what kind of man is it, I appreciate his approach, he is a man in temperament, if he doesn't leave, I want to make friends with him." ”

Tong Xue also nodded, it was her instead, if her sister's death was so unclear, she would not care about anything else, and would sanction the bad guys first.

Su Heng bent over, Tong Xue was startled when she saw him like this, and immediately retreated a few steps and stood on Su Heng's side, she couldn't afford this ceremony, Su Heng said with some apologies, "When Brother Xu asked me to investigate, what I investigated was one-sided and untrue, and I almost missed the lifelong event of the daughter of the Xu family, and I hope that my sister-in-law will not blame." ”

Xu Wenda's sister had a relationship with him, and looking at a woman with a lively personality, Su Heng didn't dare to imagine what Xu Wenda would have been like if Xu Wenda believed what he said in his letter at that time and married his sister into the Zheng family.

Tong Xue saw the sincerity of Su Heng's words, and said directly, "I can't blame you." Who knows what will happen in the family of that kind of person? ”

Besides, Su Heng and Zheng Yu are classmates, and all they can see is Zheng Yu's appearance in front of people, in front of everyone, knowing people and faces, but not their hearts, and the mouths of the Zheng family's subordinates are really tight, and there is no news circulating in the house at all, so I don't blame Su Heng, "You just tell the truth about what you see." ”

At that time, she and Xu Wenda stayed in Qingyang Mansion for a long time, but they still didn't hear any useful news, if it weren't for Du Jianqiu, who met by chance, met Su Heng by chance, and met Zheng Yu, they were also kept in the dark.

Tong Xue said directly, "Besides, now that the relatives have retired, Xianggong is now a Jinshi, and her relatives are not worried." ”

Su Heng thought of Xu Wenda, who was far away in the capital, and smiled, "Yes." Brother Xu is talented, I believe that Brother Xu will be able to succeed. ”

Tong Xue also smiled, people praised her husband, and she should always be with Rong, "Then I will borrow your auspicious words." ”

Su Heng saw that everything that should be said was almost done, and he had stayed for a long time, so he immediately got up, "Brother Xu is not here, it is inconvenient for me to stay for a long time, sister-in-law, farewell." ”

Tong Xue thought that Su Heng would stay for dinner, but when she heard Su Heng say this, she also knew that Su Heng was here to avoid suspicion, Xu Wenda and Xu Wenyuan were not here today, and it was a gentleman's action for him to leave.

Tong Xue had a better impression of Su Heng in her heart, and immediately went to the kitchen to take the dim sum she made yesterday, wrapped some and handed it to Su Heng, "Master Su, thank you, this is the dim sum I made for my younger brothers and sisters at home yesterday, I don't know if you like to eat it or not, it's all made at home, there is nothing outside, give you a try." ”

When Su Heng heard this, he immediately smiled, Tong Xue's craftsmanship, he had learned it, it was really nothing, it was the most ordinary things in her hands, and they all felt more delicious.

Although he didn't like sweets like dim sum very much, he still took it happily and said with a smile, "My sister-in-law still understands me." ”

Seeing Su Heng gone, looking at the disappearing back, Tong Xue sighed with emotion, "This Su Heng is a free and easy person, he didn't get into the jinshi, and he didn't see anything bad about his love." ”

After falling off the list, there was no such dejected atmosphere at all, but as always, he maintained a normal heart, such a person, even if he didn't succeed this time, he would always be able to achieve great things in the future, but it was not the same as the impression left on Tong Xue at the beginning.

At the beginning, Tong Xue still felt that Su Heng was a person who was more obsessed with the imperial examination, but now it seems that Su Heng is more open-minded than she imagined. Also, this seems to be the only friend she has seen so far.

The one who can make her husband look at it is not a thing in the pool.

Hearing Tong Xue's emotion, Xu Wan poked out her head, a foreign man like Su Heng, she naturally wanted to avoid it, although the farmer was not so particular, but Xu Wan still avoided it in a regular manner.

But when the person left, she came out, and when Su Heng left, she saw that expression, and she couldn't stop laughing.

Hearing Tong Xue praise Su Heng like this, Xu Wan couldn't help but smile and said, "His heartless appearance, I think he probably only takes food to heart, but when his sister-in-law gave him something just now, his face turned into a flower." ”

Tong Xue stretched out a finger and poked Xu Wan's forehead, "You girl......"

Xu Wan giggled and ran away, looking at Xu Wan's back, listening to this lively laughter, the thought that had been pressed in Tong Xue's mind before came up again, in fact, she felt that Xu Wan and Su Heng looked quite right.

Now that Xu Wenda has won the Jinshi, Su Heng has fallen off the list, and this marriage may be expected.

Su Heng's age is not too young, his family can't let him delay it for another three years, wait for the exam results in three years, it will be too frustrating.

However, this qiē will have to wait for Xu Wenda's final results to come out, and then we will talk about it.

Tong Xue only had time to read the letter written by Xu Wenda at this time, "Your eldest brother has written a letter back, come and read it to me." ”

Xu Wan, who had just run out, as well as Xu Wenzhao and Xu Jing, who were writing in the room, immediately ran to Tong Xue's side, looking at the envelope in Tong Xue's hand.
