Zhu Ping'an gradually moved away, and his back slowly lost its outline, turning into a blurry drop of light ink, slowly blending into the withered yellow autumn color.

By the Qinhuai River, the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl held the ink treasure left by Zhu Ping'an in both hands, looking at Zhu Ping'an's back, unable to calm down for a long time.

"Let's go, Susu, such a young man is not something we can climb." The seventeen or eighteen girl shook her head, pulled the red-eyed girl's scattered hair into a bun, and comforted her in a lonely voice.

When the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl heard this, her eyes turned even redder, she gritted her teeth and nodded silently, and walked to the other side of the Qinhuai River with the seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl

After these two girls, the time is almost dusk.

Zhu Ping'an left from the bank of the Qinhuai River, and walked casually in this Yingtian City to see if there was any food to fall into, and then went home in two days.

When Zhu Ping'an was strolling casually, the post man who had changed horses three times on the official post road had already ridden into Huaining County, and he brought with him the good news of this year's new recruits.

Sunset and sunrise

When Zhu Ping'an rushed from the inn to the Mingyuan Building of the Jiangnan Gongyuan, several officials wearing black and red costumes also rode out from Huaining County, with happy faces, holding gongs, good news, suona and so on.

The sky is red clouds, the ground is full of golden waves, and the red sun illuminates the eastern sky.

Zhu Ping'an and a group of newcomers in square scarves and blue robes walked into the Jiangnan Gongyuan under the red sun and set foot in the Mingyuan Building. Mingyuan Building, the word "Mingyuan", is taken from the meaning of "chasing the distance in the end, and returning to the virtue" in the "University". Mingyuan is a three-storey building. Zhu Ping'an walked into the third floor with the crowd, and at this time, the student had not yet arrived, so Zhu Ping'an and everyone quietly waited for the master to set up a banquet hairpin.

The ground floor of Mingyuan Building is surrounded by doors on all sides, and the two floors upstairs are surrounded by windows on all sides, and Zhu Ping'an stands by the window. Looking down, you can indeed see the Gongyuan Temple.

When Zhu Ping'an and the others were waiting for the senior officer, Xiahe Village had already exploded at this time.

After breakfast in the morning, the people who went down to the field to do their work saw five or six red-clothed servants coming on horseback from a distance, and they had just arrived at the boundary of Xiahe Village. Then he dismounted and hung a cannon battle on a tree, which was deafening and deafening.

Then, there was a noise of gongs and drums, and suona sounded in unison.

As soon as you enter the village, you will be happy. This is only the treatment that the head of the case can enjoy.

"Official, what's going on?" A bold old farmer stepped forward and asked.

"Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations to the old man Zhu in your village for taking the lead in high school and being admitted to Xiucai." The official holding the red paper congratulated with a smile on his face.

Hearing this, the old farmer stopped hoeing, threw the hoe into the roadside ditch with one hand, and ran vigorously to the village.

"Uncle Li, what are you running?" A curious man asked.

"Hurry, hurry. Our village has shown off its talents, and after so many years, it has finally come out of its talents. Go to Lao Zhu's house to report the good news. ”

The old farmer was panting and trotting while excitedly talking about the good news of Xiahe Village.

"Really?" The man was overjoyed.

"Old man, I'm old. Lie to you, didn't you see the officials who set off artillery battles and blows and blows over there? The old farmer blew his beard and glared.

The old farmer had just finished speaking, and then he saw the man snorting and running in front of him, and he could only follow behind to eat dirt.

"You bastard, wait for the old man." The old peasants hated that they were not twenty years younger.

"Hahaha. Uncle Li, let my nephew run this errand job. The man smirked. He didn't look back, but he ran forward.

"You bastard," the old farmer sneered.

The man just giggled. The more I was scolded, the happier I ran.

Along the way, more and more people heard the news and joined the army of annunciators along the way.

This is the great news of the entire Xiahe Village, why is Xiahe Village a head shorter than Shanghe Village, not only because Shanghe Village is rich, but also because Shanghe Village has such a talented person as Old Master Sun.

Now finally, finally Xiahe Village is also a showman, or the head of the case, tsk, what is the old farmer who is the head of the case, they don't know, but listening to the meaning of the official messenger who reported the good news, he is very angry, and it seems to be a head higher than Xiucai.

More and more people heard the news, and more and more people joined the army of the good news, and a huge group of people rushed to the old house of the Zhu family, anxious to dare to notify the old Zhu family in front of the official messenger who reported the good news. You have to tidy up your home, be bright, and get ready for fruit and melon seeds, this is the first talent in Xiahe Village, and you can't lose face in Xiahe Village in front of other officials. If the old Zhu family is temporarily short, we villagers can bring it from our own homes, but we can't let the official messenger of the good news look down on our Xiahe Village.

As for why it is the old Zhu family

I can figure it out with my ass, and the officials have said congratulations to our village Master Zhu for the high school test, what about Master Zhu, the boss and the youngest grandson of the old Zhu family in our village are studying, and the two of them went to catch the exam, and the one who can be called the master must be the boss of the Zhu family. Last time, the youngest grandson of the Zhu family also won the first case, but it was a child, and the town reported the congratulations to Zhu Gongzi, but he didn't say congratulations to Master Zhu. The eldest of the Zhu family has been studying for twenty or thirty years, the youngest grandson has only been studying for a few years, the eldest of the Zhu family has been a child for ten years, and the youngest grandson of the Zhu family was only a child some time ago.

Therefore, the old peasants took it for granted that it was Master Zhu who was talking about Zhu Shouren, the boss of the Zhu family.

Xiahe Village is also not big, and these people ran from the entrance to the village in a short time.

Zhu Ping'an's mother, Chen, was collecting the soles of her shoes under the gate, and saw a group of people roaring from her door to the village, bringing up a large cloud of dust, and couldn't help but ask a familiar villager curiously, what is the matter.

"The second family, you don't know yet, your family is righteous and his eldest brother is shouren. Ganger Mazi said that at the entrance of the village, he saw the annunciation and was rushing here. The people of the village described it with great emotion.

Hearing this, Chen, who was taking the soles of his shoes, accidentally pricked his hand.

"So, what about my family?" Chen asked eagerly.

"I think I heard that there was one in our village." Someone else added, and then hurriedly urged the people in the village, "Hurry up, we have to dare to tell Uncle Zhu before the official errand, and let Uncle Zhu clean up at home." ”

"Your little boy didn't get in, but fortunately, he was young and nothing. gone, the second family, let's go together to give your family the good news to his eldest brother. ”

"That's it, if you go to the second family, it's good to have a child, don't think too much about the second family, I believe that next time your little boy will definitely be able to win."

The villagers who followed were comforted, and then a group of people roared by, anxious to brush up on the goodwill of the new Xiucai's house, and it would be easy to talk about anything in the future. That's a talented master, on an equal footing with the county officials, and there will be more time to beg others in the future.

Zhu Ping'an's mother, Chen Shi, looked at the crowd roaring towards the old mansion in a daze, clenched the soles of her shoes tightly, and didn't even know that the needle was pricked into her hand again and the blood was pricked. Although he didn't think that the second child could be admitted, his uncle was admitted, and his own second child was not admitted, which still made Chen feel very unhappy. (To be continued)
