Chapter 192: Overtime
After the blind date process was completed, it was not early, Princess Deyang and Zhang Chunhua went back to the side hospital to rest.
Cao Miao and the others withdrew their food and drinks and sat down again.
This is the beginning of the hour, and for Cao Miao, who is used to practicing martial arts at night, it is actually the most spiritual time. For Xiahou Hui and others, it is not too late. There is often a night drink at the door of the powerful, and it is common to delay it until the second half of the night. Only the poor are truly sunrise and sunset.
After the blind date, the marriage contract is settled, and Sima Guo no longer has to consider the question of whether to marry or not, but the issue of family status after marriage. She is unwilling to live a lifetime with a stupid notoriety, she has the name of a wife, but she has no right to be a wife. Xiahou Hui won her the opportunity to take the exam again, and she naturally had to seize it firmly.
At this time, he couldn't doze off, so Sima Guo kept quietly pinching his arm in order to cheer himself up.
Xiahou Hui's mood was more complicated. She wanted to prove herself, but she was afraid that she would perform too well and suppress Sima Guo's limelight. How to handle the size, she has no bottom in her heart. In case she can't take care of both, she can't decide whether to think about her reputation first or protect Sima Guo.
Xiahou Yan was eager to try. She has no sense of existence since she was a child, and has been living in the shadow of Xiahou Hui, and she not only won Xiahou Hui in the daytime exam, but also won a lot, which made her excited and a little hard to believe that this was true, and everyone was stunned all afternoon. She desperately wants to win again, to confirm that this is a fact, not an illusion.
The four of them sat around, and Sima Guo and Cao Miao faced each other. Although each case is based on a case, at least two steps apart, Sima Guo is still embarrassed to look directly at Cao Miao, so he can only hang his eyelids, look at his nose, nose and mouth, and mouth and heart, like an old monk in his mind.
Cao Miao was not so shy. He stared at Sima Guo openly and confidently, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became. If he didn't know the political conspiracy in this, he would almost shout a real fragrance.
Although the four orchids are outstanding in appearance and have attractive figures, they are barbarians after all. Wild enough, intellectually intellective. It's more than enough to be a beautiful concubine, but it's a little bit less interesting to be a wife. Sima Guo in front of him is much better, not only has everyone's beautiful temperament, but also has a rare heroic spirit.
Sima Guo was flustered by Cao Miao's eyes, ashamed and annoyed, and there was a trace of unspeakable humiliation. His head was getting lower and lower, his chin was against his chest, and tears of grievance were rolling in his eyes again.
Seeing this, Xiahou Hui coughed. "Townsman, let's get the question."
Cao Miao retracted his gaze and glanced at Xiahou Hui. "Don't worry, we have time. Rest well, lest you find a reason when the time comes. Besides, I don't read much, and I know so many questions, so you have to give me time to prepare. Are you in such a hurry, do you want me to come up with some mentally retarded questions like one plus two, two plus three, etc., to prove your cleverness? ”
Xiahou Hui raised his hand and signaled that Cao Miao was enough, you are free. She suddenly found that Cao Miao was really verbose, more than a woman. She was worried that Cao Miao was emotionally unstable, so she didn't dare to stimulate him anymore, lest he go crazy and couldn't clean up.
Cao Miao held her cheeks, crouched on the desk, and kept changing her posture. Look at Xiahou Hui for a while, look at Sima Guo for a while, and look at Xiahou Yan for a while. The three of them were all restless by him, but they couldn't leave, so they had to endure it. However, Xiahou Hui soon found that although Cao Miao seemed to be looking at them, his eyes were actually dilated, and he was obviously thinking about the problem, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After the uneasiness in his heart disappeared for a while, Xiahou Hui finally regained some composure, and naturally sat up straight, straightening his chest and waist.
In order to comfort Sima Guo and Xiahou Yan, she also specially wrote a small note to inform the two. After being reminded by Xiahou Hui, Sima Guo and Xiahou Yan also sent out that Cao Miao seemed to be rude, but in fact, his mind was not on them, and he gradually relaxed.
Cao Miao's mind is indeed not on them. He now has to consider two questions: first, what kind of questions can be asked, which can further hit the self-confidence of Xiahou Hui and Sima Guo, but also not make people suspicious. The first is to magnify the contradiction between Cao Xiu and Sima Yi in order to profit from it, but it will not be unmanageable.
On this blind date, he chose the time and place, but the result was far from what he expected. Sima Yi's old spiciness, made him very passive, what he wanted, Sima Yi didn't give it, but Sima Yi wanted it, but he achieved it step by step. If he didn't want to find a way, it looked like he had won this contest, but he actually lost a mess.
How can we quietly win back a city?
Until a solution is found, he can only use the excuse of publishing the title to stall for time.
After most of the hour, Yun Niang walked in with two maidservants and served supper. When setting up the tableware for Cao Miao, she turned her back to Xiahou Hui and the others, and said softly: "There is a fire in the kitchen, and we will be on standby at any time and listen to the orders of the townsman." ”
Cao Miao will understand. Yun Niang seems to be talking about things in the kitchen, but she is actually talking about delivering news to Cao Su. There was a fire in the kitchen, indicating that Xiahou Xu had sent the news. This mountain villa was originally Xiahou Xu's house, in addition to the river valley road, there are also several hidden mountain roads, Xiahou Xu wants to spread the news to the mountain pass, and it is not difficult not to alarm Sima Yi.
"Are the dingos out there still there?" Cao Miao asked. It means that Cao Su is going or not leaving.
Yun Niang smiled: "Follow the taste, which is so easy to go." It means that Cao Su refused to leave.
"Then let him go. Keep your doors and windows closed and don't let wild dogs in. ”
"Whoa." Yun Niang put down the food, turned around and went out.
Xiahou Hui glanced at Cao Miao and lowered his head to taste the food. She heard the conversation between Cao Miao and Yun Niang, but she didn't know who the wild dog was referring to, and thought that Cao Miao was alluding to Sima Yi's father and son, so she was annoyed, but she was helpless. Cao Miao didn't name her, she couldn't jump out and say that the wild dogs Cao Miao said were her husband's family.
After eating supper, Cao Miao put down the dishes and chopsticks and smacked her lips. "Just thought of a question."
"Say it, say it." Xiahou Yan hadn't finished eating, holding the bowl and urging while eating.
"There is one man, and there are eleven horses, and three sons, and the eldest son gets one-half, and the second son gets one-quarter, and the younger son gets one-sixth, but the horse shall not die, and he asks, "How shall the horses be divided?"
Xiahou Hui listened to it and smiled. Such a question is too simple. However, she didn't answer, and quietly looked at Sima Guo. Sima Guo's face was not very good-looking. Xiahou Hui thought about it for a while, and then he understood Sima Guo's thoughts. They have all seen similar questions, but those questions are all cows or sheep, and Cao Miao deliberately replaced them with horses to match the sound of "Sima", obviously deliberately teasing.
Sima Guo fell into the plan, and only cared about controlling his qi with Cao Miao, and did not focus on how to answer the questions.
Xiahou Hui was about to remind, but Xiahou Yan answered first: "This question is simple, first borrow a horse, into a number of twelve, the eldest son gets six, the second son gets three, and the youngest son gets two, a total of eleven horses." One remaining horse, returned. ”
Cao Miao gave a thumbs up. "The little sister is smart, and she answers quickly and well." As he spoke, he took out a gold cake from a box beside him and handed it to Xiahou Yan with both hands. "This is a reward, little sister take it. I hope that Xiaomei will make persistent efforts and win a few more, so as not to be taken advantage of by outsiders. ”
Xiahou Yan held the golden cake and nodded excitedly. Although her family is not poor, she can't let her spend money casually, and she suddenly gets a windfall of one gold, which she earns by doing her own questions, and she is happy for some reason.
Xiahou Hui couldn't cry or laugh. Cao Miao was too cunning, and actually used gold cakes as a reward to motivate her sister Xiahou Yan's fighting spirit, and disgusted her and Sima Guo by the way, stimulating their emotions. These are all small tricks, not worth mentioning. For her, the biggest question now is whether to compete with Xiahou Yan?
With the variable of Xiahou Yan, whether she fights or not, she seems to be bound to lose.
