Chapter 221: Survival
Four or five days passed after the end of the government exam, and Song Tian saw that his father had not returned, so he began to be a little worried.
This morning, he called Tang Hai and asked him to go to Cao's Mansion to ask what was going on and how long it would take to return.
Tang Hai nodded and soon went out.
He arrived at the embroidery building first, but when he saw Cao Lie there, he knew that most of the shopkeeper had an accident.
Cao Lie didn't hide it from him, told him about the matter, and took Tang Hai to visit Song Ercai.
Song Ercai has been in Cao's Mansion for several days, and the person has not woken up yet, Cao Lie has been taking the best medicinal materials for him these days, listening to Lang Zhong's intentions, his life can be saved, but he can't say when he will wake up.
In just a few days, Song Ercai was thin and out of shape, and Tang Hai couldn't help but have a sour nose when he saw it.
has been on an errand for several years on the Buzhuang side, although it is only a small guard, but the shopkeeper and the head of the house are very good to them on weekdays, and seeing Song Ercai like this at this time, how can Tang Hai not be uncomfortable.
"Uncle, have you caught those two?"
Cao Lie nodded, "I was arrested the next day, and I am currently locked up in the house, as for the disposal, I will wait for the shopkeeper Song to wake up and make plans." ”
Where can two men and women who have no foundation flee to, they found them in a small town not far from the city.
Tang Hai asked, "Where is my brother now?" ”
As Song Ercai's bodyguard, the master was injured like this, and Tang Hai mentioned that his brother was a little angry.
"He feels uncomfortable, I sent him out on an errand in the past two days."
Song Ercai was unconscious, Tang Shan blamed himself very much, he always liked to beat up the two people locked in the firewood room in the house, Cao Lie was afraid that something would happen, so he took the person away.
Tang Hai sighed, glanced at Song Ercai on the bed and said, "Childe is already waiting a little anxiously, how should I hide it from him." ”
"You said that you went to the nearby county to inspect and let him prepare for the hospital exam with peace of mind."
Cao Lie also sighed, and the two went out one after the other as they spoke. At this time, on the bed, Song Ercai's eyelashes fluttered slightly.
At that time, Song Tian heard that his father and Uncle Cao went to other counties and counties to inspect, but he didn't say anything, and something happened at this time, which drew his attention.
In fact, it's not a big deal, it's just that the dean of Qingyun Academy in Fucheng held a poetry meeting, inviting students from all over the world, and those who have the ability can send a post to the academy to try it, and after that, an invitation will be issued, and then they will go to participate.
Qingyun Academy holds a poetry meeting, which is said to be held once a year, but in the past, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and this year it was advanced for some reason.
The reason for this is unknown, but it does not hinder the enthusiasm of everyone scrambling.
Since the news was released, the people outside the gate of Qingyun Academy have not dispersed, and they lined up every day to hand over the name card inside, and by the way, there was a poem that they had made.
Whether you can get an invitation post or not depends on how this verse can pass the examiner's eyes.
With such a thing, even Master Zhang couldn't sit still, and took the initiative to call everyone to seize this rare opportunity.
Although the official academies in Fucheng and the county need to show their talents and fame to study, if they are favored by the dean, even if there are times when children make exceptions, there is no absolute.
As soon as Master Zhang's words came out, everyone was boiling, and they buried themselves in writing poems that afternoon, thinking that they would post them later.
For the sake of the students' future, Master Zhang didn't go anywhere in the afternoon, and sat in the inn hall to point out poems for everyone.
But poetry can't rise up at once, it takes a long time to accumulate.
In the evening, there were still a few who could not get the Master's approval, and in the end they couldn't, so let them try again tomorrow.
I can't even pass the master's level, let alone enter the academy.
Several people were a little frustrated, and Liu Quan scolded her daughter-in-law when she returned to the room.
"Tell me about you, who has been reading for more than ten years and is in your early twenties, why is it not as good as a Song student? You said how old you are, the half-grown children of the 14th Five-Year Plan not only took the first exam, but also nodded frequently. What about you? I wrote four or five poems, but I couldn't even get over them. ”
Jiang Shi frowned coldly, looking at his man with a disgusted look.
Liu Quan was already upset, and hearing these words would only make him even more annoyed.
"Don't mention anything to me every day, okay? Am I your man, or is he your man? Who are you heading for? ”
Liu Quan was also angry, and the pen in his hand slapped on the table with a "snap", shaking the ink in the inkstone.
Song Tian has become more popular outside, and he still needs this mother-in-law's mouth.
"What are you angry at me? If you have the ability, you can surpass others! If your ability to read doesn't increase, you know how to bully women. ”
Jiang is not afraid of him, his mother's family took the money to study for him, why did he still have the face to kill himself.
The hands of taking people are soft, and the mouth of eating people is soft, no matter how angry Liu Quan is, he can only swallow it in his stomach.
He put away the two verses on the table, pulled the door and went out.
Since you can't resist him, can't you leave!
"Huh? Where are you going? ”
Jiang chased out the door, and Liu Quan had already run away.
"You tell Liu Quan, if you dare to go to those flower streets and willow alleys, the old lady will make you unable to eat and walk around."
After Jiang finished speaking, he also pounced and bolted the door.
"Run, run, don't come back if you have the ability."
Jiang sat on the edge of the bed and laughed angrily, anyway, the man didn't have any silver on him, the big deal was to go around outside, and he didn't have to come back and beg him to open the door at that time.
Outside, Liu Quan also walked around twice outside the inn, then returned to the inn to find an empty table and sat down, just like Jiang thought before, he didn't even have the money to drink tea, where could he go.
As soon as he thought of being managed by his mother-in-law all day long, Liu Quan was angry and didn't fight anywhere, he poured eight lifetimes to marry such a daughter-in-law, and he would ...... in the future.
After thinking about it, Liu Quan took out two more poems in his sleeve.
It would be good if he could enter Qingyun Academy to participate in the poetry meeting this time, and then he would show his face in front of the dean, maybe the child would also be able to go to Fucheng to study, and then he would have nothing to do with his mother-in-law, why wouldn't life be happy.
The more frustrated he was, the more he loved fantasies, Liu Quan sat at the empty table for a while, sighed and was about to go back, not wanting the shopkeeper to come, and putting down three dishes and a pot of good wine in front of him.
"Little second brother, are you mistaken?"
Liu Quan was stunned, don't make such a joke with him, he's hungry.
"This guest officer, can you be mistaken, the old man called for you."
Xiao Er said and pointed to the mustachioed man sitting next door.
Liu Quan looked sideways and saw that the man was smiling at himself and arched his hand.
He returned the salute with some inexplicability, and then the man sat down.
"Brother, what do you mean by this?"
Liu Quan didn't know him, so naturally he didn't dare to touch his things.
The mustachioed man smiled faintly and said: "I am also a fallen person at the end of the world, and it is fate to meet today, I just want to invite my little brother to have a drink." ”
