Seeing that Yue Su wanted to go to the Shantang with Jin Chan and the others, Li Qiongying hesitated, but still said: "Brother Yue has such a kind heart, and the younger brother admires it." But how can I do good deeds and accumulate virtue without me, and give things to ...... My scholar will take care of it. With that, she got up and put on her shoes and got out of bed.

Yue Su was also happy to see that she was willing to go, because the little silver in her hand was just a drop in the bucket, and it would be better if there was a noble person to help.

At that moment, the four of them left the inn, led the way by the golden cicada, and headed in the direction of Shantang.

The Shantang Inn is not too far, a few streets away, and you will almost reach a house at the entrance of the town. Coming to the door, Jin Cicada stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, a child's immature voice came from inside, "May I ask who it is?" ”

"It's me." Jin Cicada replied.

"It's Uncle Kim back." When the child heard the sound of the golden cicada, he was very happy and hurriedly opened the door of the house.

Yue Su and Li Qiongying looked at it, and the one who opened the door was a **-year-old boy, the child was very thin, with a vegetable-looking face, and the clothes on his body were all patches, but they were also clean. The child took a step forward, hugged Jin Cicada's thigh, and said happily: "Uncle Jin, you are finally back, we all miss you so much, I'm afraid you won't come back at night." ”

Jin Cicada gently stroked the child's head melon, and said softly: "How can Uncle not come back, just go out with your Uncle Tie, wait until dawn, and buy meat for you to eat." By the way, say hello to these two uncles. Jin Chan pointed back at Yue Su and Li Qiongying.

The child was very polite, bowed to Yue Su and Li Qiongying, and said, "Hello two uncles." ”

Li Qiongying saw that the child was very cute, so she couldn't help but step forward and stroke the child's hair.

Jin Chan said: "The two of you, please, Uncle Mu should have fallen asleep, I'll call him to get up." ”

With that, everyone went into the courtyard together. There were five houses in the courtyard, and the houses were okay, not dilapidated, and at this moment, the windows of two of the rooms were open, revealing seven or eight little heads, and they must have been awakened by the knock on the door. As soon as the children saw Jin Chan and Tie Qiu coming in, they immediately cheered, "Uncle Jin, Uncle Tie ......"

Then, one by one, they pushed the door and ran out, surrounding the golden cicada and the iron qiu. Because of the excitement of the children in the yard, the other sleeping children were also woken up, and everyone saw that it was the golden cicada and the iron chopper who came back, and they all poured out. At this time, an old man in his sixties and an old woman in her fifties came out of the main room, and several children who had just woken up came out with them.

Jin Chan and Tie Qiu each picked up a child and greeted the two old men, "Uncle Mu, Aunt Ren." ”

"It's the golden cicada and the iron cicada who are back, the children see that you haven't come back for a day, they are all thinking very much, and some of them can't sleep at night, for fear that you won't come back." Uncle Mu staggered towards the golden cicada.

"Uncle, let me introduce you to two new friends, they are both well-wishers." Jin Chan pointed at Yue Su and the others and said.

Yue Su arched his hand at Uncle Mu and said, "Hello uncle, my name is Yue Su. Li Qiongying also followed Yue Su's example and bowed her hand. The two walked in front of Uncle Mu together.

This Uncle Mu is a thin old man, and his clothes are also very thin, and the same is true of Aunt Ren who is with him.

Yue Su was deeply sympathetic, talked with Uncle Mu for a while, and confirmed from him that Jin Chan's words were indeed true, and it can be said that as soon as he entered the hospital, he had already concluded that Jin Chan was not lying. Now that Shantang is almost out of food, Uncle Mu has no way to do it, and he really can't bear to let these children be displaced again.

Yue Su immediately took out all the silver on his body and said that he would support Shantang, but he only had a total of three taels of silver on him. In the Ming Dynasty, one tael of silver was enough for a small family to live for a year, and three taels was not a small amount.

Seeing Yue Su's generosity, Uncle Mu and Aunt Ren couldn't help crying, and sighed vigorously, there are still well-wishers in this world. Li Qiongying's heart was even more shocked, thinking of her own fine clothes and food, but there are still many people in this world who can't even eat, no wonder Yue Su is very satisfied to have a full meal.

She grabbed Yue Su's hand and said, "Brother Yue, you are not rich, you still have to keep this money for living in the hotel and eating, and leave the funding to me." ”

As soon as the palms of the two touched, Li Qiongying's cheeks immediately turned crimson, but fortunately, it was night, and no one could notice it. She hurriedly retracted her hand, shyly reached into her arms, and took out all the gold leaves, at this moment, her heart was still pounding like a deer.

Yue Su didn't do anything, but he felt that "Brother Li's" hands were relatively small.

When Uncle Mu and Aunt Ren saw a stack of gold leaves, they were so frightened that they hurriedly took two steps back, for these poor people, gold was not something they could touch at all.

"Uncle, auntie, I only have so much on me, you keep it for the first time and buy more meat for the children. If that's not enough, I'll send it to you later. ”

Uncle Mu shook his head in fright, "This little official, so much gold, the little old man will never dare to accept it." ”

"I'm also funding your charity hall, you can accept it, what don't you dare to accept." Li Qiongying was puzzled.

Yue Su knew the reason and said: "Brother Li, Uncle really doesn't dare to accept it, just like you, if you use gold leaf in the market, you will definitely be targeted by people with bad intentions, and then it will cause trouble." I don't think it's as good as this, wait until dawn, let's buy more rice and meat and send it over, and if the brother's family is close to the left, we will always take care of it. ”

Li Qiongying nodded and said, "Brother Yue is still thoughtful, and when it dawns, we will buy it." I also made up my mind in my heart, and when I returned home, I sent people to come to Zhou Ji Shan Hall often.

That night, everyone chatted in the Shan Tang, and until dawn, they went to the market to buy a lot of rice, meat, and vegetables, and exchanged a lot of loose silver, all of which were left for the Shan Tang. At noon, Uncle Mu entertained everyone for dinner in the good hall, and during the banquet, Jin Chan asked for the names of Yue Su and Li Qiongying, in order to repay him.

Yue Su didn't hide it, and said directly: "In Xia Yue Su, this little brother's name is Li Ying. ”

"Yue Su ......" Jin Chan muttered, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "But now the eldest master of Yue Suyue, the Duke of the Yuan Dynasty." ”

"How dare the eldest lord be, everyone is a friend, just call him brothers." Yue Su said humbly.

"Where does this make Xie Yuangong Gao Yi, the five-body body admired by Jin Chan will become a good official like Hai Qingtian in the future." Saying that, Jin Chan actually left the table and knelt on the ground, and said earnestly: "Jin Chan is not talented, I am willing to follow Xie Yuangong, and I will not hesitate to do anything about the sword mountain and the sea of fire." ”

Seeing Jin Chan like this, Tie Qiu also knelt down and said, "Tie Qiu is also willing to follow Xie Yuangong, but he is sent and it is incumbent on him." ”

Yue Su admired the straightforwardness of the two brothers, and he himself was not a hypocrite, so he immediately helped the two up and agreed to the invitation. And said that after thanking the teacher, he would come to the charity hall to find them.

After lunch, Yue Su and Li Qiongying returned to the inn, Yue Su finished the remaining carpenter work, prepared to stay for another night, and entered the city early in the morning to thank the teacher. When Yue Su was working, Li Qiongying had been sitting on the sofa admiring, perhaps for her, watching Yue Su doing carpentry was her happiest moment.

*************************************************

"Childe, early in the morning, where are you going?" As soon as the next day dawned, Li Qiongying pulled the scholar up from the bed, wiped his face casually, and left the inn quietly without saying hello to Yue Su. The scholar was puzzled, and as soon as he left the store, he asked.

"Go home." Li Qiongying smiled and strode in the direction of Wuchang City.

This time, the scholar was even more confused, hurriedly took two steps to follow, and pouted: "Didn't you say that you were going to run away from home, why did you think about going home in just two days." ”

"Do you need to take care of it?" Li Qiongying's face was full of joy and full of energy.

"Oh...... I understand, you must have taken a fancy to this Xie Yuangong, and you are ready to go home and wait for the church to get married. The boy was not stupid, and reacted quickly. After speaking, he grimaced at Li Qiongying.

"Dead hoof, dare to make fun of me, see how I clean you up when I go back." Li Qiongying became angry, chased and beat the scholar on the street, the two of them giggled and laughed, and ran away, fortunately, there was no one on the street at the moment, otherwise they would have to be regarded as a psychopath.

Not long after Li Qiongying left, Yue Su got up, finished freshening up, and went to call Li Qiongying for breakfast, only to find that the two were gone. Yue Su sighed, had no choice but to eat by himself, ate breakfast, hired a mule cart, carried the sofa and coffee table, and headed towards Wuchang City.

All the way to Wuchang City, found the residence of the political envoy, put his name and explained his intention, and the porter immediately passed it on and soon invited him in.

In the Ming Dynasty, the political envoy belonged to the head of the civil officials of a province, and his status was not ordinarily high, and the scale of the government can be seen. Today, there can be seven or eight people who come to Xie Shi, and they sat in the flower hall as early as possible, and when they heard that Xie Yuan was coming, they all went out of the hall to greet them.

After a few words of greeting, enter the hall and sit down, of course, the first place should be left to Yue Su, who calls someone is the first place.

Zou Jiaren, the political envoy, had already received the report and did not come out immediately, which is also a manifestation of his self-respecting identity. A gift list was sent to the study, although the students were rich and poor, but they were also desperately filial piety and did their best. When he saw Yue Su's gift list, he couldn't help but be stunned, "a set of tables and chairs".

Zou Jiaren secretly said in his heart: "Someone anonymously reported that Yue Su cheated in the examination room, and this Xie Yuan was copied." It stands to reason that if it is plagiarism in the examination room, this kind of person will give generous gifts when he is thanking the teacher, why is it so shabby, can it be said that someone is jealous? ”

Unsure in his heart, Zou Jiaren thought about it again and again, and decided to test Yue Su's talent first. No matter what you say, you can't rely on an anonymous report letter to determine that Yue Su is cheating in the examination room. So he said, "Come on, go and ask Yue Su to see me in the back garden." ”
