Xu Zhijin first went to the private school to find Hua Rong, and Hua Rong replied familiarly: "Okay, I asked my sister to come to the private school to find you at night." But...... Third Brother Xu, you have to lend me that set of "Taiping Guangji"! ”

Recently, Hua Rong has become obsessed with ghost books, saying that there is a kind of walking technique that can send people to the front court, the front front court. He wanted to wear it to the Song Dynasty and see Hua Rong, who had the same name as him. But Daddy doesn't believe that there is such a thing, in a word: nonsense!

"What's so hard about that? I'll give it to you! Xu Zhijin said with a smile. Isn't Hua buckwheat's younger brother just like his own brother, what can he borrow or not?

In the evening, Xu Zhijin went to the private school early to wait for the buckwheat. Hua Qiao arrived soon, Xu Zhijin handed her a few copies of "Taiping Guangji" and said with a smile: "This is what Hua Rong wants, please take it back to him." Hua Qiao smiled and took it.

"So quickly Mercury asked for the result? That's amazing! Hua Qiao sat opposite Xu Zhijin and praised.

"What's so good about it?" Xu Zhijin was a little embarrassed to be praised, frowned and said:

"Yes, yes, yes, In recent months, my pharmacy has not found any problems with mercury sales, and the Taoist priest does not need to look for it, and the pharmacy said that these two people in our county are fake Taoists and will not refine mercury. However, they say that when goldsmiths make gilding, they will use mercury, and Du goldsmiths generally buy their own goods, and it just so happens that this year his family took over the work of gilding the body of the city god in the city god temple. ”

"That'...... There are still elixir shops and goldsmiths to check. Hua Qiao nodded, and said with a sly smile: "Du Jinjian, I'll check, the elixir shop...... As long as you get out of the horse, you will definitely be able to catch it! ”

"Why?" Xu Zhijin was confused, and Changsheng Pharmacy was not opened by his family.

Seeing his confused expression, Hua Qiao smiled and continued to tease him: "Xu Moyan, the eldest girl of the county master's family, likes you, but everyone in the whole Baoying County knows it!" As soon as you use a beautiful man's plan, isn't it easy to catch? ”

Xu Zhijin didn't say anything, only heard a soft sound on the roof, and then a cat meow. Xu Zhijin's face turned purple: "Hua Qiao, don't talk nonsense...... I don't like her again...... I'm not even 10 of you with her......"

Hua Qiao covered her mouth and smiled: "Teasing you, why are you so nervous?" Don't you even look down on the eldest girl of the county master? Are you planning to go to the capital to marry a noble girl? ”

Xu Zhijin stood up in a hurry, and almost blurted out a sentence that had been held in his heart for a long time. Fortunately, the cat on the roof barked again. Okay, calm down, she's still a little girl, I'll tell her when I come back after I pass the township exam.

The male "cat" on the roof, his eyes crooked, smiled: it turned out to be just wishful thinking!

Xu Zhijin said seriously: "I never thought about what you said. But since the matter is difficult to investigate, don't worry, I will accompany you to investigate in the next few days, if there is no result...... It's not within our reach, you can't take risks on your own. "The main thing is that in a few days, I will go to Yangzhou. Xu Zhijin didn't say.

When Hua Qiao heard him say this, she was a little moved, and she regretted that she was joking with him just now, and hurriedly said: "By the way, that male corpse will be dragged to be buried in two days, and I want to go to Yizhuang tomorrow night and leave the earring hanging on his belt." I guess the other earring must be in Guo Qingchen's place. ”

Xu Zhijin said without hesitation: "Okay, I'll accompany you to Yizhuang tomorrow night." ”

But the next day, as soon as Xu Zhijin wanted to sneak out to find Hua Qiao to go to the gold shop, he was blocked in the house by the black-faced eldest brother.

Xu Zhihua said with a serious face: "Yesterday you said that your stomach hurts, go to the pharmacy to get medicine for a day, where are you going to hurt today?" ”

Xu Zhijin scratched his head and said honestly: "It doesn't hurt anywhere...... It's like, I have something to go out. ”

Xu Zhihua walked into the room and sat on a chair, looking like he wanted to talk, Xu Zhijin had no choice but to retreat from the door and sit on the chair next to him. The eldest brother is like a father, and he has listened to his eldest brother since he was a child.

"Don't think that the eldest brother doesn't say it, you just don't know, you are mixed with the girl of the flower writer all day long. She is beautiful and intelligent, but her mother will never agree to you marrying the daughter of a small servant's family.

You are now going to be promoted, and if you are nominated for the first list next year, you will have a bright future. The eldest brother kindly reminded you, don't wait for your mother to make a move, it will hurt Hua Qiao even more, you broke this idea as soon as possible. ”

Xu Zhijin stood up from the chair and said angrily: "Big brother, I don't like to hear you say this." What happened to buckwheat? She is 10,000 times better than the girl from a wealthy family in your eyes. Don't say that now I and Hua Qiao are innocent, I can't allow you to put your beak, even if I want to marry her in the future, it's my business, whether it's my mother or father, none of you can stop it! ”

Xu Zhihua didn't expect the always gentle third brother to react like this, and was stunned. He also stood up and said with a straight face: "Anyway, from today until you go to Yangzhou to go to a private school to prepare for the exam, you don't want to go out of the house again, and read books at home honestly." The second child spent fifty taels of silver to buy a book of the chief examiner, Master Li's policy collection, I have asked someone to copy it last night, and I will give it to you later. Memorize it well! ”

"Even if I don't go out, I don't want any of your strategies!" Xu Zhihua pushed the eldest brother out of the door and closed the door with a "bang".

He heard the eldest brother say to the little guy outside: "Give me a good look, if the third young master runs away, you will roll up and leave the Xu family." ”

Irritating! Xu Zhijin was worried: Today, he was going to go to the goldsmith's shop and the elixir shop with Huatuan to find clues, but now he is locked up...... I'll have to inform the flower group. Alas, it would be nice if I could not go to Yangzhou to prepare for the exam.

Xu Zhijin went out of the window, looked around, and whispered: "Ah Cai!" Ah Cai! ”

Ah Cai turned back with a sad face: "Third young master, don't call me, I won't let you out, and if you don't ask for it, the eldest young master will peel my skin...... No, it's worse than peeling, I'm going to roll the cover! ”

"I'm not going out, you come here, I have something to do with you...... Do you earn money if you have money? Xu Zhijin took out two taels of silver and shook it by the window.

Ah Cai thought about it, slowly moved to the window, pointed the back of his head to the window, and said: "Third young master, I don't want your silver, as long as you don't make trouble, if there is anything, I will do it for you." But...... It cannot be more than one time to go out of court. ”

Xu Zhijin grinned, stuffed the cold silver into his back collar, and whispered: "You go to the opposite side of the gate for me, find the old yellow man who carries the burden and sells bean flour buns, and ask him to send a bag of bean flour buns to the girl who is a flower writer." The money left over from the purchase of soybean flour buns will be yours. ”

"It's as simple as that?" Ah Cai looked at the two taels of silver that came out of the back of his neck, and couldn't believe his ears. Two taels of silver is not a small amount of money, his monthly money is less than half a tael, and the bean flour bun is worth a few copper plates?

Xu Zhijin stuffed a folded note into his collar again, and said with a smile: "Of course it's not that simple." Remember to put the note in the paper bag of the bean flour bun so that no one can see it. ”

Ah Cai put his mind at ease: Hey, the third young master just sent a love letter to the girl, so what's there? The eldest young master said that he was not allowed to go out of the room, and he did not say that he was not allowed to send love letters.

"Don't worry," Ah Cai turned back to Xu Zhijin and squeezed his eyes, and whispered: "Ah Cai understands that the mission will be achieved." Guaranteed not to delay your love! ”

After speaking, he shouted to Ah Bao who was not far away: "Ah Bao, I'll go to the thatched house, you are staring at the door of the third young master!" ”

Ah Cai grinned and grabbed the note and silver and ran away.
