After Song Hong left, Song Tian continued to sit down and read.

After a while, someone came to the empty church house, a young man with a white and round face and a body about the same height as Song Tian.

As soon as he entered the teaching hall, he stared curiously at the people by the window, and seeing that there were only the two of them in the teaching room, he slowly leaned over and poked Song Tian's shoulder with his finger.

Song Tian was fascinated, he didn't know that he was being paid attention to, he looked up unexpectedly and stared at him blankly.

"Your surname is Song?"

The young man asked, and Song Tian nodded stunned.

"It turned out to be true." The young man was obviously pleased, and asked again: "Your father is the shopkeeper of He's Pharmacy?" ”

Song Tian looked him up and down: "Do you know my father?" ”

"That's right, I'm the youngest son of the owner of the grain and oil shop next door to He's pharmacy, Shopkeeper Song often instructs me to learn, and he mentioned it to me yesterday afternoon about your coming to the school."

The young man dragged a small stool next to him and sat next to Song Tian, arched his hand and said, "My surname is Pang, my name is Zimo, just sit next to you, and you can call me Zimo directly in the future." ”

The youngest son of the grain and oil store next to the pharmacy? Song Tian heard it for the first time, so naturally he didn't know it, but the other party was so enthusiastic that he had to give it up: "A single name is a word, Brother Pang can call me Song Tian directly." ”

"Song Tian, good name. I'm also a day student, and when I go to school, I'll call you on North Street......"

The two chatted casually and became acquainted, and Pang Zimo also saw the scar on Song Tian's left face, but he just looked at it twice more and didn't ask anything.

The class bell rang, and the empty teaching house was quickly filled with people, and Song Tian's arrival did not cause much fluctuation, after all, everyone who reads knows that people cannot be good-looking, and the sea water cannot be measured.

The teaching time of the school is similar to that of a private school, with two hours of study in the morning and a two-quarter hour break in the middle.

After school at noon, Pang Zimo followed Song Tian out of the door of the school hall.

The two parted ways at the intersection of the street, and Pang Zimo also said that he would go back to school with him after dinner.

Song Tian bowed, and when he went back to eat and rest for a while, Pang Zimo came over and walked around the shop.

Chang heard that he was his son's classmate, so he warmly said a few kind words to him, and asked him to come over often in the future.

Chang has always known that his son has no friends, and it is a good thing that the two can have a companion.

Pang Zimo smiled and said yes, and wanted to go to the back yard to go around.

Song Tian thought that Ah Xiu was busy in the back, and didn't want this kid to bother him, so he pulled him out to go to the school.

When the two of them went to the intersection, they saw five or six students walking on the other side of South Street from a distance, and they hugged a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy in the middle and walked towards the school hall together.

Those people also appeared to be day students, apparently from the town or the surrounding area.

"See, that's Ji Ying, the only talent in Class A, who passed the children's exam at the age of thirteen, and is a talented man at fifteen, and he will go to the exam next year."

"The few people who followed him were all from Class A, and they were all students who had passed the children's exam."

Pang Zimo said with envy on his face, but he didn't come up, pulled Song Tian to stop, deliberately let those people go first, and his expression showed a little fear.

Song Tian was a little curious and asked him, "What are you afraid of those people doing?" ”

"It's not that I'm afraid. Although they are in the same town, they are not the same kind of people as me, and they always feel unattainable, so we who are the last of the class should not get together. ”

The class classification system in the school hall invisibly divides everyone into different grades, just like children envy Xiucai, and Xiucai envy the reason that they can be officials.

The students in Class A have a small reputation, and they are also the leaders in the school, so they are naturally admired by others.

Pang Zimo was a little embarrassed, seeing Song Tian frowning and looking at it, he blushed slightly, he was similar to Song Tian, his face was round and his eyes were big, and he looked like a child about ten years old, but he was actually thirteen, and he had not entered C after studying in Class D for more than two years, and he felt stupid and did not dare to interact with others, so he slowly began to be alone.

Song Tian also said that this person was so enthusiastic about himself, and he had no friends for a long time.

"By the way, since Ji Ying has a reputation for showing talent, why don't you go to the academy in the city, why do you stay here?"

If you are in the show, you can enter the official school in the city, and it is said that not only is it exempt from the bundle fee, but it will also issue pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Pang Zimo didn't know about this, shook his head and said: "He actually went to school for a year, and somehow came back later." ”

"Oh."

Song Tian didn't ask much about things that didn't interest him, and the two of them went to the school hall side by side.

At this time in Pingyang County, Song Ercai and Lu Bao had just arrived at the city gate.

Lu Bao is the little guy he mentioned before, although he is only sixteen years old, but he has been working with him in the pharmacy for a year last year, and then his father was seriously ill, so he quit his errand and went home to take care of his bedridden father.

Lu Bao, this kid is tanned, his facial features are tough and upright, he looks thin, and he looks like a clever ghost.

At the beginning, Ah Xiu mentioned that he wanted to find a buddy, and Song Er thought of him.

This person has done things under him, his hands and feet are sharp, his character is passable, and his hands are skillful, Song Er has only seen the clothes he made, which are not bad, so he reserved a place.

The two entered the city, and Song Er took him to eat a bowl of noodles, and then went to Wanxing Silk Village.

When Shopkeeper Liu saw that it was him, he wanted to take someone to Cao's Mansion, but Song Er refused, he still had to go to get some goods, leave things, and the money would be confiscated temporarily, and they would be settled together next time.

Shopkeeper Liu was stunned when he saw those things, and sent Song Er away before he went to the Dongjiafu in person.

At that time, Song Ercai asked someone, rented a carriage and went to the outskirts of the city to find the business house called Yuanminglou.

Since it is a commercial house, it generally has its own convoy, and Yuanminglou is not in the city at all, but on the outskirts of the city.

The carriage walked for two quarters of an hour and found a place, Song Ercai entered the door and explained his intention to the shopkeeper, the other party was very easy-going, let him go upstairs and downstairs to pick up, take it if he likes it, and give him the lowest price for a horse.

The lowest price is given for each horse, and it seems that the relationship between the Fang family and this trading house is extraordinary.

Song Ercai looked at the old shopkeeper who was over half a hundred years old at the counter and wanted to ask something, but he thought of coming over for the first time, but in the end he couldn't speak.

He went to the second floor first under the leadership of the young man, and when the figure disappeared at the staircase, the shopkeeper Xu turned his head and explained some things to the shopkeeper, and went out to drive the carriage in the auxiliary to the south of the city.

In a small courtyard on Changti Street in the south of the city, Du's mother was teaching Du Juan needle under the eaves with an embroidery bandage, and suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard door, she was vigilant, and asked Du Juan to take the embroidery bandage to the house first, and she went to the door and asked, "Who?" ”

"I, Xu Gong."

"What?" Du's mother was excited, and her voice was trembling.

"The family is here."

In just a few words, the shopkeeper Xu did not enter the door, and after conveying it, he glanced at the side of the alley, and turned around and left directly after making sure that there was no one.

In the small courtyard, Du's mother had red eyes, she looked at the sky and bowed silently, and walked quickly to Du Juan, who was probing her brain at the door of the hall.

"Ready, let's go find Miss."
