Since Zhang Xubai left, the spirit of the old monk has deteriorated day by day. Gu Mengping saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. He discussed with Lao An and decided to sleep under the old monk's bed from now on, so that he could wait day and night.

After Gu Weiyue found out, he invited two doctors to come and see, but the doctors shook their heads and sighed after they went back. Gu Mengping's article had been handed over to him a few days ago, and it was different from the one written at the poetry meeting, 'The people are rich in the bottom', although it was not as amazing, but it was also a very well-behaved work.

After reading it carefully, he knew that this nephew was afraid that he would soar into the sky.

With Gu Mengping Zhuyu in front, Gu Zhongkang, the former pearl of Xifu Dafang, was not so eye-catching, and the target of others' talk gradually shifted from him to Gu Mengping. After the news of Gu Mengping taking care of the old monk spread, everyone praised him.

Gu Weisheng in Xifu was not convinced, and urged Gu Zhongkang to study hard every day.

After the twentieth day of the first month, the county office announced the examination date in front of the county yamen, and at the same time accepted the registration of students from the county school.

As soon as this news came out, the whole of China began to shake.

The students of various prefectures and counties began to fill in their resumes and the three generations of survivors since Gaozu, and they also had to find the county's life insurance, not only that, but every five students who were preparing for the county examination had to write down the five-child mutual insurance policy, and if the cheater sat down five people in a row.

After a busy day, it's February.

Each prefecture begins the prefectural examination.

A few days before the opening, Gu Mengping went to find Gu Shaohua and Gu Xingyun to cheer them up and encourage them. A small children's test is naturally difficult for these two people, and for them, the difficulty is the township test.

To Gu Mengping's surprise, as soon as he returned home, he saw a beautiful carriage, which stopped outside the door of the outer third room, and several servants and servants stood in front of the carriage with their hands tied.

The brocade mantle on the car was picked, and the first to come down was a maid with a double bun, and then a pair of surging autumn water appeared behind the brocade mantle, happily bent into two crescents, "Brother Gu, I'm here again!" ”

Gu Mengping saw that it was Xiao Wanyi, and he was also happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao is good." ”

Xiao Wanyi in the carriage has resumed her women's dress, wearing a foundation plum branch satin skirt, with her hair tagged on top of her head, smiling before speaking, and her eyes are bright.

The old lady said that Brother Gu was too polite, and it was not worth thanking him so ceremoniously. It just so happened that yesterday Beijing sent a few baskets of fresh fruits, and I specially asked me to send them to the master and Lao An people to try them. Xiao Wanyi said that two days ago, Gu Mengping went to the Lin Mansion again to thank him.

Mrs. Lin personally received him.

Old Madam Lin is now the only one in the Lin Mansion, and her son and daughter are either following Xiao Jinxuan or waiting for the Zhang family in Beijing. Mrs. Lin has an indifferent personality, and she does not make things difficult for local officials at will because she is Xiao Xinxuan's nursing mother. The slaves of the household were also very strictly restrained, and they were not allowed to stir up trouble outside.

The Lin Mansion is so knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and the local officials are also willing to give the Lin Mansion a face.

Just like the last time Gu Mengping returned to Suiping in the middle of the night, if someone else was changed, it was estimated that the city gate would not be opened. But as long as the seal of the Lin Mansion is displayed, the city gate official dares to open the city gate.

Yingsleeve knew that Xiao Wanyi was coming, and she was also extremely happy, and happily ran to the street door to greet her.

Xiao Wanyi also likes this lively and beautiful little girl very much, and stuffed a nine-link for Yingsleeve, "Oh, this is for Yingsleeve to play, see when you can untie it." ”

Yingsleeve had never played with this thing, and was a little dazed for a while. Xiao Wanyi smiled and untied the ring first and then re-scrambled it, and then stuffed it back into Yingsleeve's hand.

"Thank you, pretty sister." The pair of wonderful eyes of the sleeves widened suddenly, revealing a happy smile.

For Xiao Wanyi's arrival, Lao An was extremely happy, and stood in the east room to greet him with the help of Jia Mu.

Xiao Wanyi went to meet the old monk first, and then talked to Lao Anren.

She has a kind personality, her eyes are bright and clear, her smile is bright and refined, and her voice is crisp and has a hint of indescribable joy, which makes people happy to listen to.

When Lao An talked to her, she connected her head, and her eyes were full of respect and solemnity.

She was extremely impressed by Jiamu's embroidery skills, holding a handkerchief that had not yet been embroidered, and kept praising it.

When Jia Mu asked her what she liked, she blushed and replied wryly: "My father urged Wan Yi to study, and my mother urged Wan Yi to study women." But Wan Yi always looked at the mountain and looked at the mountain, but she didn't learn well. Now I don't have any hobbies, but I like to play the piano and plant flowers. ”

Love to play the piano and plant flowers? This is not an ordinary boudoir that a boudoir woman is entitled to enjoy. A guqin is often hundreds of taels or thousands of taels, and it is difficult to cultivate such a hobby without a certain amount of family resources.

And to plant flowers? In such a cramped courtyard as the outer third room, even if Jiamu likes to plant flowers, he has nowhere to plant.

But what does this matter to me? Why should I feel sorry for myself?

Since my younger brother came to the outer three rooms, life has been getting better and better day by day. Now the shopkeeper Gu has just taken over the store, but he also said that he will give the master a hundred taels of silver a year. Although she had never seen the ancient shopkeeper, her grandmother and master praised him, especially since this was the big shopkeeper that her brother had worked so hard to find.

She had nothing but joy in her heart.

There should be only joy......

Thinking of this, Jia Mu smiled, turned around and went back to the house, took out a few embroidered handkerchiefs, and gave them to Xiao Wanyi, "I don't have any good things to give to my sister, this is what I just sent in the city, so I will give it to my sister to wipe her sweat." ”

Xiao Wanyi unfolded the handkerchief, only to see a lifelike peony flower blooming on the silk handkerchief, and her eyes widened in surprise, "How can such a good handkerchief be willing to wipe sweat?" I'm going to put it in a box and press it, and I'll only show it to those close to me in the future. ”

Jiamu pursed his lips and smiled, this is to treat her as a bosom friend.

unitary beginning,

At the beginning of the sunset, the smoke of the industrious people has risen.

An elderly servant urged Xiao Wanyi to return to Hexing Town.

Xiao Wanyi went to say goodbye to Gu Mengping, "I'm going back, you can go to Hexing Town when you have time......" Seeing Gu Mengping hesitate slightly, she said again, "Daochang Zhang admires you very much!" You can ask for advice when you have time. ”

Gu Mengping agreed with his head in the jaw, and asked Gongsun Yuan to go with him to send Xiao Wanyi, who knew that Gongsun Yuan was fascinated by reading the book, so he didn't answer after a few calls.

Helplessly, Gu Mengping led Jia Mu and Ying Sleeve to send Xiao Wanyi into the carriage.

With a whip sound, when the carriage was about to start, Xiao Wanyi suddenly lifted the brocade curtain again, "Brother Gu, why did you provoke Zhang Zhiba?" I heard that he is now going around in tandem to find your bad luck. Speaking of this, she looked at Gu Mengping deeply, "Brother Gu, you have to be careful. There is only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days. Over time, there will always be times when people are slack, and you still have to deal with it early. ”

With this, she smiled, and then put down the brocade curtain.

Watching the carriage slowly move away, a faint layer of joy rose in Gu Mengping's heart.

There is also an indescribable layer of sentimentality, which cannot be waved or caught......

He turned his head and slowly walked to the outer third room.

The two alleys are full of young willows, and the branches are long and floshing. The thin leaves are shining, gently and gently caressing the face, soft as the ribbon on the hem of the girl's skirt.

The tender grass is new, and the alleys are dyed green.

When he was about to reach the street gate, Gu Mengping stopped.

I saw a pothos plant, which was born under the steps with difficulty, quietly sprouting.

For some reason, Gu Mengping suddenly sighed and turned his head to look at the alley.

I saw that the alley was deep, and the weeping willows were dancing.

It's spring again!
