The next morning, the sun was already hanging in the sky, and a few small birds were chirping in the big tree in the middle of the village of Eternal Night. In Jiang's mother-in-law's house, Zhao Yue was not affected by last night's battle in the slightest, got up early, and was packing up her baggage.

After learning about his life in the vicinity of Xu County, Zhao Yue wandered like a madman in Yongye Village for many days, but thanks to the rescue and care of Jiang's mother-in-law, his sanity and spirit were restored to normal. And at this moment, he is about to leave Eternal Night Village, and Zhao Yue actually has a little nostalgia in his heart.

Jiang's mother-in-law stood aside, watching Zhao Yue pack up her things, her wrinkled face showed a reluctant look, her mouth opened and opened, and finally said: "Child, mother-in-law has a saying, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

Zhao Yue heard Jiang's mother-in-law call him, hurriedly stopped what was in his hand, let Jiang's mother-in-law sit down on a chair, poured her another glass of water, then squatted down, blinked her eyes, and asked patiently: "Mother-in-law, I'm going to leave soon, if you have anything else, just say it." ”

Jiang's mother-in-law took a sip of water, and then said slowly: "I said, child, did you make any big mistakes before?" My mother-in-law saw you wandering around the village before, and she kept shouting something like 'I was wrong, I wasn't wrong'. ”

When Zhao Yue heard this, she didn't know how to explain it, so she was speechless for a while, and her face was embarrassed.

Jiang's mother-in-law didn't mind, and continued to explain: "Alas, I don't understand much about you young people, you just told me, and I don't understand, but child, I see that you are kind-hearted and dare to stand up for our village, which means that you are not a bad person." ”

Zhao Yue was about to speak, but was interrupted by Jiang's mother-in-law, only to hear her continue to laugh and say: "This person is alive, how can he not make a mistake?" When your mother-in-law and I were young, she once stole an egg from the neighborhood, didn't she live this year? ”

After Zhao Yue heard this, she couldn't help but laugh, and happily agreed: "Mother-in-law, you are really joking." ”

Jiang's mother-in-law was also very happy, and continued: "Since we are ordinary people, not emperors, we will definitely make mistakes. As the saying goes, if the prodigal son does not change his money, it is not too late to repent when he returns. ”

Sometimes, words coming out of someone else's mouth are really more effective than persuading yourself. Zhao Yue listened to Jiang's mother-in-law's words, and his heart was very warm, he stood up and bowed in front of Jiang's mother-in-law.

Yes, as long as people have the heart to repent, it is never too late, and if they are afraid, they are afraid that if they make a mistake to the end, that is the tragedy of life.

Zhao Yue said goodbye to Jiang's mother-in-law, took her baggage, stood at the entrance of Yongye Village, looked back at the calm and peaceful village, and then resolutely embarked on the road to Runan County.

This road is also sunny, spring flowers are blooming, Zhao Yue did not encounter any major trouble, but along the way met some poor people from the north, passing through here, wanting to settle in the south, where the war is relatively rare.

Runan County is located in the middle of the world, north of the Central Plains, south of Jingzhou. In addition, the roads here are convenient, and it is suitable as a transit point for migration. It's just because of this that many bandits and rogues choose to find a mountain in Runan County to make a living and rob the money of passers-by, Pei Yuanshao is one of them.

Zhao Yue in order to catch up with the first day of the next month Xu Shao held the Yue Dan Commentary, so he walked overnight, and finally it took only five days to come to the Pingyu City under the rule of Runan County, standing far away on the official road outside the city gate, and the word "Pingyu" on the city gate can still be vaguely distinguished.

What Zhao Yue didn't expect was that this Pingyu City was not big, but people came and went, and it seemed to be very prosperous, giving people the impression of a small town with many people.

With this wonderful feeling, Zhao Yue cautiously entered the city.

In fact, as early as when he was on the road, he inquired with passers-by that the legendary celebrity Xu Shao lived in this city, but at this time, there were still three days before the first day of the next lunar month, and Zhao Yue wanted to see if he could find something to do and pass the time.

The various facilities in Pingyu City, as well as the architectural style are similar to Kunyang City, but compared to Luoyang, it is much worse, I heard Cao Ping say before, if you go to Hebei, I am afraid that it will be more unique.

Zhao Yue walked on the road, looking at the crowded crowd around her, listening to the words in their mouths, it seemed that she wanted to try her luck at Xu Shao's house on the first day of the next lunar month.

The large and miscellaneous number of people, coupled with the shouts of shops on the street, as well as the narrow and slender streets, the entire Pingyu City seemed to have become a pot of hot porridge, and Zhao Yue and these people crowded in it were like grains of rice.

"Slow down! Squeeze what? ”

In the crowd, a middle-aged man with a square scarf on his head suddenly shouted, attracting everyone to look at him. It turned out that it was another elegant man dressed in a scholar's costume who stepped on his foot, which made him angry.

Seeing this, the scholar hurriedly saluted and said abruptly: "This eldest brother, I have stepped on you negligently, and I hope to forgive me, as the so-called 'shoulder to shoulder', this is enough to see the people in Pingyu City full of voices, and ......"

"And you're big!" Before the scholar finished speaking, the middle-aged man rolled up his sleeves and wanted to make a move.

Zhao Yue sighed in the crowd, and shook his head helplessly, if he said anything before he changed, he would have to go up and pull it, but for now, he just wanted to do his own thing, as for those things that had nothing to do with him, he didn't want to be entangled.

A person's life is limited in time, and although Zhao Yue is seventeen years old, he has a heavy burden on his heart, so he must make himself look as mature as possible, and he can no longer be as naïve and frank as before.

In his heart, the eleven-year-old Marlu became the best example.

Following the crowd, Zhao Yue was finally squeezed in front of Xu Shao's mansion.

I saw the courtyard surrounded by gray tiles and white walls, and a few willow branches that had just sprouted green stretched out from the wall. In front of the vermilion gate stood the housekeepers with sticks, who always raised their eyebrows and looked serious, and from a distance, they could feel a solemn and rigorous atmosphere.

Zhao Yue stood in the crowd, many people passing by this street will look at the Xu Mansion a few times, this mansion is in the middle of the downtown area, there are stalls selling red paper-cuts on both sides, the stall owners are shouting and shouting, and the red hollow paper-cuts look lifelike under the eyes.

"It's really a lively small county, although it is not as prosperous as the big businesses, but it has a little more human touch." Zhao Yue felt warm in her heart, and couldn't help but exclaim.

Coincidentally, a few days before Xu Shao Yuedan's evaluation, there would be a family member in the house who would write the detailed rules of the evaluation on paper, and then paste it on the wooden sign in front of the house. Just when Zhao Yue was looking at the Xu Mansion in a trance, a slender girl had already walked out of the mansion, holding a roll of white paper in her hand, and behind her was a group of men, who were holding wooden sticks, bowing their heads, and following closely.

The crowd erupted in a lot of chatter.

"Who is this man?"

A person who came to ask for a comment before explained: "This is the post maid in Xu's mansion, who is responsible for posting the detailed rules, how about it, looking at the maids are so beautiful, Xu's mansion must be extraordinary." ”

Before everyone could finish the discussion, the young and beautiful maid was already standing in front of the mansion, she gently used her fingertips to pull her hair in a neat bun, and said to everyone in a nice voice: "Presumably you are all here to Pingyu City, hoping to get the comments of my master, Mr. Xu Shao, and there are acquaintances and frequent customers during this period, as well as new guests, so the rules will be said by me first, and the text will be posted on the wooden sign later for the guests who are not here to understand." ”

"Then tell me quickly!" In the crowd, some anxious people couldn't help but shout.
