Fei Hong took Xu Jin's re-made article and read it carefully, stroked his beard and said with satisfaction: "Very good, if Xu Xiaoyou participates in the county examination with this article, he will pass, but if he wants to win the first case, he still needs to sharpen it!" ”

Xu Jin doesn't have the luxury of taking the first place, as long as he can pass the county test and get the government test to participate in the second level, of course, it would be better if he could get the first pass, and passing one pass is equivalent to passing two passes, because the county test must pass the government test, which is an unwritten rule.

"Thanks to the guidance of the seniors, the juniors will work harder!" Xu Jin took a deep look.

Fei Hong accepted it calmly, he could afford it!

Fei Hong turned around and took a stack of manuscripts on the bookshelf, and said with a smile: "These are the old man's reading notes in recent years, as well as some experiences and insights, as well as articles made in his spare time, Xu Xiaoyou can take it back if you are interested." ”

Xu Jin is overjoyed, the reading notes and articles of a scholar like Lao Fei are naturally not comparable to Guo Fuzi and his talented father, but he is a bull who has passed the imperial examination, and an official to a scholar of Huagai Palace, and his vision and insight are naturally far beyond ordinary people.

Xu Jin took the manuscript handed by Fei Hong with both hands, shook it to the end, and said respectfully: "Thank you, Master Fei!" ”

As the so-called teacher of a word, Confucius once asked Lao Tzu a question, and he regarded Lao Tzu as his teacher. Fei Hong not only pointed out Xu Jin's article, but also handed over his reading notes and articles to Xu Jin to read, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he was a teacher, so Xu Jin changed his name to Fei Shi at this time and regarded himself as a protégé.

Fei Hong nodded and smiled: "You go back, if you don't understand something, you can come and ask the old man!" ”

Xu Jin left the study with Fei Hong's manuscript in his hand, and was led by the maidservant Hongying to the outside of the house. This visit to Feifu has been very fruitful, and if it hadn't happened, it would have been perfect.

Xu Jin had always been a little apprehensive, but after so long, there was no movement in the Fei Mansion, and it is estimated that the Fei girl did not think about it, nor did she complain to her family, so she was a little relieved.

"Sister Hongying, I disturbed Miss Fei before I went down, and I was very uneasy, is she okay now?" Xu Jin quietly probed.

Hongying covered her mouth and smiled: "Xu Gongzi can call me by name directly, people can't stand the word sister." The maid has already explained the previous matter to the third girl, don't worry about the child, the third girl is gentle and knowledgeable, and she will definitely not blame the child. ”

Xu Jin was completely relieved when he heard this, he was afraid that the Fei family's relatives would bring a large team of people to the front to ask for an explanation.

After leaving Feifu, Xu Jin saw that it was still early, so he walked around the street by the way, saw a shop selling jewelry, and remembered that Xiaowan's wooden fork with her hair was very old, so he went in and picked out a new one, wrapped it in paper and held it in his hand.

Xu Jin returned to the store and saw that the table in the store was almost full, and the little girl was very busy, and it seemed that she had to hire a small worker as soon as possible.

"Xianggong is back!" Xie Xiaowan, who was rubbing flour, suddenly smiled brightly when she saw Xu Jin coming back.

Xu Jin stretched out his hand to wipe off some of the flour on the cheeks of the little girl, and said with a smile: "Xianggong put things away first, and I will come out to help you later!" ”

"Hehe, look at the love of the little couple!" One diner quipped.

Xie Xiaowan flew her cheeks, shook her head and said in a low voice: "I'm busy alone, Xianggong doesn't need to come out to help, just study with peace of mind!" ”

Xu Jin smiled, turned around and went back to the inner house, sorted out Fei Hong's manuscript and put it in the study, washed his hands and went out to the store to help.

The ancients didn't have the same nightlife as the modern people, and most people went to bed after dark, and even saved lamp oil, so after 6 o'clock in the afternoon, there were no customers in the store.

After closing the door and playing foreign, the little couple lit the oil lamp for dinner, and after everything was cleaned up, the little girl began to count the money again.

The income on the second day was less than on the first day, selling about 80 bowls of noodles and only 30 bowls of spiced haggis, with a total income of 780 yuan, but after deducting costs, it made about 210 yuan, which was about the same as yesterday.

The cost of a bowl of spiced haggis is about four yuan, but if it is sold for ten yuan a bowl, the profit is more than 100%, so it is extremely profitable, which is the benefit of monopoly, there is no competition, and you can price how you want.

The little girl hid the copper coins beautifully, and then boiled water to serve Xianggong to take a bath, of course, Xu Jin has not corrupted to that extent, he washed the bath himself, Xie Xiaowan just helped him prepare the bath bucket hot water and clothes.

Originally, the ancients were not used to taking a bath every day, especially in the cold winter, but Xu Jin was used to taking a bath every day, and he felt uncomfortable if he didn't wash for a day, so now the little girl is also "infected" with the good habit of bathing every day.

After taking a bath, it was usual to read at night, and it wasn't until about eleven o'clock in the evening that Xu Jin went back to his room to sleep with an oil lamp, and found that Xie Xiaowan's girl was sitting on the bed in a daze.

"Xiaowan, why don't you sleep yet? You've got to wake up early tomorrow! Xu Jinqi said.

"Xianggong, I can't sleep!"

Xu Jin put down the oil lamp, reached out and touched Xie Xiaowan's forehead, and asked with concern, "What's wrong, are you uncomfortable?" ”

Xie Xiaowan shook her head, Xu Jin felt that this little girl's mood seemed to be a little wrong, and she was still elated when she counted the money after dinner, why was she so depressed now?

Xu Jin climbed on the bed and gently hugged Xie Xiaowan's shoulder, and said softly, "What's wrong?" Who upset my lady! ”

Xie Xiaowan struggled a little, and said angrily: "People are not happy, Xianggong go to sleep quickly!" With that, he blew out the oil lamp and got into the bed.

Xu Jin was a little inexplicable, could it be that this girl's good friend is here, but she is really tired today, so Xu Jin also lies down and sleeps.

Just as Xu Jin was sleeping deeply, he seemed to hear a low cry in the haze, and subconsciously reached out and touched the side, but did not touch Xiaowan.

At this time, Xu Jin's consciousness was clearer, and the woman's low sobbing voice could be heard more clearly, and suddenly he was completely sleepy.

Xu Jin hurriedly sat up and found that Xiao Wan's girl had gone nowhere, and the woman's low sobs seemed to come from the hall outside.

It was dark all around, and he woke up in the middle of the night, and Xiao is Xu Jin was also a little cold. Xu Jin calmed down, faintly felt that the cry seemed to be a bit like Xiao Wan, and hurriedly got up and felt the fire and lit the oil lamp.

Xu Jin walked to the hall with an oil lamp, and sure enough, he saw Xie Xiaowan in pajamas sitting on a stool, her hands on the table and crying.

Xu Jin couldn't help feeling distressed, and hurriedly walked over: "Xiaowan, what's wrong with you?"

The little girl raised her face, only to see that her eyes were red, and when she saw Xu Jin coming out with an oil lamp, she immediately turned her face to the other side, and said deliciously: "Xianggong, I'm sorry, Xiaowan woke you up!" ”

Xu Jin put the oil lamp on the table, leaned over and hugged the little girl into his arms, and said distressedly: "Xiaowan, what happened?" Why do you run out and cry in the middle of the night! ”

Xie Xiaowan sniffed and said, "I'...... I want my mother's mother, before we get married, my mother's health is not very good! After speaking, he lowered his head and tilted his little brain to one side.

Xu Jin couldn't help but suddenly, and comforted softly: "Then after the New Year, the father-in-law will accompany you back to your parents' house to visit relatives!" ”

Xie Xiaowan shook her head and said: "Xianggong will take the county exam in February next year, so I have time to accompany Xiaowan back to my mother!" ”

"Then come back after the county exam!" Xu Jin said softly: "Silly girl, I am homesick and tell my husband directly, why did you secretly run out to cry, what if you catch a cold!" ”

Xie Xiaowan's nose was sore, and the tears were about to drip out again, Xu Jin was a little panicked, and hurriedly said, "Why are you crying again?" Xiaowan, it's uncomfortable for you to be like this! ”

Xie Xiaowan wiped her tears and plucked up the courage to say, "Xianggong, you ...... Is there anyone out there? ”

Xu Jin was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "How is it possible, you girl heard nonsense?" ”

Xie Xiaowan took out a beautiful handkerchief embroidered with lotus flowers, pouted slightly, and said, "Then whose handkerchief is it?" ”

Xu Jin chuckled in his heart: "Oops, I actually forgot this!" ”

At that time, he picked up the handkerchief that Fei Ruyi had lost, Xu Jin hurriedly stuffed it into his arms, and later discussed the article with Fei Hong, but he forgot about this handkerchief, and dared to find it when Xiaowan packed up her clothes.

Xie Xiaowan saw Xu Jin silent, tears dripped down sadly, she wondered why Xianggong had not had sex with her, it turned out that there was a woman outside, maybe she would take a break after a while!

Xu Jin was greatly distressed when he saw this, and hurriedly took a handkerchief to wipe Xie Xiaowan's tears, and comforted: "Don't cry, Xiaowan, you misunderstood......"

Xie Xiaowan's tears flowed even more, and she twisted her face to the side and ignored Xu Jin.

"Enough, don't cry!" Xu Jin snorted.

Xie Xiaowan's face turned pale suddenly, since Xu Jin recovered from her illness, she had been gentle to her, and she had never scolded her like this, so she couldn't help but be startled.

Xu Jin saw that he had stopped this little girl, and hurriedly hugged her again and said warmly: "Xiaowan, listen to me, this handkerchief was bought by Xianggong, oh, and this...... You wait! ”

Xu Jin ran into the study, took out the newly bought hairpin, and handed it to Xie Xiaowan.

The little girl blinked her teary eyes and said suspiciously: "Xianggong, this ...... Did you really buy it for me? ”

Xu Jin said angrily: "I didn't buy it for you, could it be that I used it myself?" ”

"People...... People still think you have someone outside, don't be petty! Xie Xiaowan lowered her head timidly, as if she was really wrong.

Xu Jin was both angry and funny, and deliberately said with a black face: "Xiaowan, in your mind, is Xianggong such a person?" ”

"No, no, no, Xianggong, I'm sorry, Xiaowan is wrong, you use the family method!" Xie Xiaowan hurriedly hugged Xu Jin.

Xu Jin couldn't help but sweat secretly, but fortunately he was witty, and hummed: "The family law is definitely invited!" After speaking, he hugged the little girl to his lap, slapped Xiao Qiao's [buttocks] twice, and reprimanded: "Look at you, this girl, if you dare to wronged the husband like this in the future!" ”

Xie Xiaowan blushed and said, "Xiaowan doesn't dare anymore!" ”
