The first is to ask for pink...... If Lian Shouxin didn't mention it, Lian Man'er almost forgot that there was still Lian Jizu.

"That's right, did you go to the step-ancestor exam, how did you do the exam?" Zhang glanced at Lian Shouxin, and asked Gorou as well.

"My stepbrother has come to take the exam. …… It seems that I didn't play well on the spot, and I didn't get the test. Gorou said.

Several people in the room were silent for a while, and no one sighed about it. There are a thousand experiences there, and even the step-ancestor has fallen off the list again, which is no longer surprising. Lian Man'er didn't know what others in the family thought, she thought that Lian Jizu didn't like to study at all, but just regarded studying as a kind of livelihood, a kind of livelihood that could avoid labor and flaunt his superior status. Even Jizu didn't even care if he could be admitted or not, as long as he maintained his status as a supporter and a student, he Chapter 512 Daohe only needed to maintain his status as a supporter to study.

"Anyway...... Now the days of going to the room are better, so let's take the test slowly, I can always take the test. Maybe the time hasn't come yet. Zhang said a little insincerely. She wanted to comfort Lian Shouxin.

"The child of the step-ancestor, the heart and eyes are not bad, but the supply is floating. Ay. Lian Shouxin didn't seem to care as much as Zhang imagined, "What happened when step-ancestor went to take the exam." Are you nagging, your grandfather and your grandmother are in Taicang, aren't they all good? ”

"My stepbrother arrived earlier than me, and he took the people he was waiting for, and he arranged everything for food and accommodation. I asked, and my step-brother said that my grandfather and my grandmother are very good, and everything is very good in Taicang. After the exam and the list, he went back to Taicang. Gorou explained the situation in general, and it was obvious that when he was in Fucheng, he and Lian Jizu were not close.

Lian Man'er didn't have any idea about this, the two of them were not close before, their personalities and growth environment were incompatible, plus all the things that happened between their home and the upper room, the gap was there. There are a few of them, and there are Zhang's. When facing and talking about the people and things that go to the house. can be calm, it is already because they have a gentle personality, they don't like to hold grudges, and they are worried about their faces Chapter 512 Daohe.

"Do people worry about you? I didn't hear Gorou say that he is now an official, and there are people to serve him when he goes out. Zhang's white glanced at him.

"I didn't worry about him. I know it's not my turn to be a heart. I'm just asking him and his grandmother. Lian Shouxin hurriedly explained.

The topic diverged like this, and everyone asked about Gorou's situation in Fucheng one by one. Seeing that the night was getting deeper and deeper, Gorou's face showed a trace of exhaustion, although Zhang was reluctant. But he still shouted to stop.

"Gorou came out before dawn in Fucheng, and after a day's journey, he didn't have to rest when he came back. Gorou, my mother boiled water for you, hurry up and take a bath, and go to bed early. Zhang stood up and said, "You don't have to get up so early tomorrow morning." Take a good break. ”

"Yes, if you have anything to say, we'll talk about it tomorrow." Even keeping promises.

"Yes, brother, you should rest early." Even Man'er said.

"That's fine." Gorou was a little tired, so he stood up.

After a night of nothing, Gorou got up refreshed the next day, and everyone had breakfast together, and then they started to look at and pack the luggage package that Gorou brought back. Because there were a lot of people yesterday, Gorou was tired again at night. Therefore, the luggage package that Gorou brought back was always there and was not opened.

"Brother, have you given away all those lotus seeds or something?" Lian Man'er asked.

"Well, it's all sent out." Gorou nodded, taking out a booklet from the bookcase and handing it to Lian Man'er, "I have kept accounts for most of the contacts in Fucheng. ”

Gorou thought thoughtfully, after all, no matter how good a person's memory is, it is limited. And what is recorded on paper. But it can be taken out from time to time for reference. Lian Man'er thought so in her heart, so she took the account book. I flipped through the pages one by one. Gorou's account book is very detailed, and at the back of almost every transaction, there is a brief introduction about the other party.

While looking at the account book, Lian Man'er counted the return gifts that Gorou received, and asked Gorou a word or two if there were some things that were not clear.

You can't underestimate this thin few pages of account books, this is the beginning of Gorou's accumulation of contacts.

After counting the things against the account book, Lian Man'er turned over the account book repeatedly, and was surprised in her heart, why did she not have any contact with the Shen family.

Before she could ask, Gorou asked Zhang to open the other two baggage, and at the same time took out a letter and a gift list from the bookcase.

"Xiao Jiu's letter to you and Xiao Qi. …… Shen Jiali, I wrote another booklet. Gorou smiled and handed the letter and the gift list to Lian Man'er.

Hearing that Shen Xiaopang wrote a letter again, Xiao Qi was happy, and when he came to Lian Man'er, he wanted to read the letter together.

"I'll open the letter to you." Lian Man'er saw Xiao Qi's eyes, so she smiled and gave the letter to Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi was even happier, carefully cutting the opening of the envelope with scissors and taking out the letter.

"Sister, let's watch it together." Xiao Qi held the letter and sat down in front of Lian Man'er, and the two sisters and brothers read the letter together.

Shen Xiaopang in the letter, at the beginning, was still in a serious tone, the general meaning was the same as the previous letter, but the content of this letter increased significantly, Shen Xiaopang said a lot of his current life in the letter, even what time to get up in the morning, what time to sleep at night, and the point was that he liked the fresh lotus canopy and fresh water chestnut sent by Lian Man'er's family, and also said that there were any fresh things, so that Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi must think about him and send it to him.

At the end of the letter, the tone was already as common as gossip, and at the end he said, "It would be better if the two of you could come to Fucheng to see me together." ”

"Sister, let's go to Fucheng when will we take a look." After reading the letter, Xiao Qi immediately said with great interest.

"Don't worry, there will be opportunities in the future." Lian Man'er touched Xiao Qi's head and said with a smile.

Gorou obtained the qualification of a student, that is, he obtained the qualification to study at Shengjing Academy. According to the regulations, all talents in the examination must enter Shengjing Academy to study.

When I first heard the news, the family reacted quite a lot. Especially Zhang and Xiao Qi, they are particularly reluctant. In the end, it was Goro's words that appeased the mother and son.

"To say that you must be enrolled in school, in fact, it is just a formality. I go to class for a few days every month, and then let my husband take a test for the growth of his knowledge, and then he can go home and read books by himself. ”

"With Mr. Lu here, I don't have to go every day."

Hearing Gorou say this, he only needs to go to Fucheng for a few days every month, and the rest of the time is still studying at home, and everyone breathes a sigh of relief.

"Brother, then you still won't go to the private school in the future?" Xiao Qi asked again.

"Well, not going." Gorou said, "However, if my brother is at home, my brother will send you to school every day, okay?" ”

"Not really, hehe." When Gorou said this, Xiao Qi was happy again, but he felt a little embarrassed, so he grinned.

Wulang has to go to Fucheng every month, so when Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi want to go with him, it's just a matter of one sentence.

Knowing that Wulang would live at home most of the time, and that he had the opportunity to follow his brother and sister to Fucheng to play, and see Shen Xiaopang, Xiao Qi was so happy that his eyebrows almost danced.

"Sister, let's see what Brother Jiu has brought us again?" Xiao Qi said.

Gorou went to Fucheng this time, and still visited Shen Mansion, and this time it happened that Shen Liu was at home, so he had a special opinion on Goro. The Shen family still has a "golden oil" type return gift, which contains rulers, pen and ink, tea leaves, and folding fans. Among them, the tea leaves replaced the silver taels last time. Shen Liu and Shen Xiaopang prepared other gifts.

Shen Liu gave a pair of blue and white round-mouthed amphorae. Shen Xiaopang sent all kinds of food, food and play. The Shen family's gift alone accounted for more than half of all the return gifts.

"How about Gorou rest at home for two days, and then go to Fucheng?" Lian Shouxin said, "Before the festival, send our fresh lotus root, crab and shrimp to the sixth and ninth masters." ”

Originally, these were intended to be used, not to mention that I heard Xiao Qi say just now, and his little ninth brother specifically said in the letter that he wanted these things.

"Okay." Gorou naturally had no objections.

When it was close to noon, two more groups of guests came to Lian Man'er's house. Zhang Qingshan's family got the news and knew that Wulang had passed the Xiucai exam as he wished, and rushed to congratulate him. As soon as he arrived at the door of Lian Man'er's house, Zhang Qingshan asked Zhang Qingnian to light the few firecrackers he bought. The congratulatory gifts were more than double the last one, including a pair of chickens, a pair of ducks, a pair of geese, a pair of legs of mutton, four big fish, four hares, half a fan of pork, and a pig's head and a whole pig into the water. In addition, they must bring mushrooms, fungus and other mountain goods every time they come, as well as freshly harvested walnuts, autumn plums, Yali pears and other fresh fruits.

Zhang Qingshan and Li's family entered the door with the front foot, and the people from the Song family in the county seat arrived at the back foot. This time, only Song Hailong in the Song family brought a few followers alone.

The congratulatory gifts of the Song family are richer than last time, and the August Festival gifts are also sent. In addition to rulers, pen and ink, tea, furnishings, fruits, snacks, etc., Song Hailong also sent a house deed. It is a small house with three entrances in Willow Lane, the county seat.

“…… All the furniture and maids are all in order, and there is no need to worry about the fifth brother. Song Hailong said with a smile.

Gorou is now a showman, and it is inevitable that when he goes to the county seat to meet friends and run errands, it is indeed much more convenient to have a house.

I have to say that the Song family's pen is not small, and it is also thoughtful.

After discussing with Man'er's family, they only accepted all the other gifts, but the deed was returned to Song Hailong, only saying that they didn't need it for the time being.

Lian Shouxin and Wulang accompanied Song Hailong to talk, and naturally greeted the old lady of the Song family, but did not ask Lian Hua'er why she didn't come. It was Song Hailong himself who brought up this topic, saying that Lian Hua'er was not in good health, and apologized to Lian Shouxin and Goro for Lian Hua'er's inability to come.

Lian Shouxin only asked a little question, Gorou's face was faint, and he didn't speak, Song Hailong's eyes turned, and then he changed the topic...... Send a change first, and ask for your pink support.

In the evening, I will strive for the second watch, everyone don't wait too late, and you can also see it tomorrow (n_n)orq!!
