Ah Xiu woke up from the dream, and the sky outside was already bright.

After breakfast, Song Tian asked her to go shopping on the street, Ah Xiu responded, and she didn't want to go out yet, but it was raining outside.

The rain fell intermittently with snowflakes for several days, and it did not stop until the eighth day of the new year.

It's rare to have a few days of leisure throughout the year, and in the end you can only hold back in the hospital.

Ah Xiu doesn't matter, he was born in the back house, and he rarely goes out from childhood to adulthood, so it's okay to stay for a few more days.

Song Tian was a little depressed, and his plan to get along alone was in vain.

On the eighth day of the new year, the embroidery workshop started, and everyone was busy again.

At the end of the first month, when the goods were delivered to the city, Ah Xiu disguised herself as a man and followed Song Ercai together.

She wants to go to Jiangnan to keep up with the development of the Beijing area, Cao Xu has no opinion, they have been in this western corner for too long, and they have long wanted to go outside to stretch their fists.

As for the matter of going to sea, Cao Xu has no way, Ah Xiu said that he will go over there and take a look, maybe he can think of a way.

In this way, the three of them reached an agreement, Cao Xu took the lead, and later sent his youngest son to Linjiang to buy a house and a shop.

As for why he went to the Linjiang area, Song Ercai and Cao Xu didn't ask much.

There are some things that everyone already knows, and there is no point in asking too much.

It's February, Song Tian packed his bags, and he was about to take the exam.

Before leaving, Ah Xiu made a special trip to a small temple in the next town and asked for a peace blessing to be given to him.

The bag containing peace and blessing was embroidered by her own, and it was green bamboo, which means that it is rising.

After coming to the Song family all these years, Ah Xiu didn't know how many things he had embroidered.

Usually she hardly goes out, and when she goes to the city, she only stays in Cao's mansion, and she has never been out shopping, so except for these small embroideries, there is nothing to give him.

Ah Xiu took the brocade bag in his hand and stroked it, the stitch on it is naturally a unique stitch method that does not turn outward, and a few ink bamboos on the brocade bag the size of half a palm are lifelike, and it looks like a real thing is pasted on it from a distance.

Ah Xiu was very satisfied, and was about to go out with his things, when there was a knock on the door.

Thinking that it might be Brother Tian who came to say goodbye, she straightened the hem of her clothes before going over to open the door.

"Brother Tian, I'm about to go over to find you."

Standing outside the door was indeed Song Tian, the young man was wearing a moon-white wide-sleeved robe, and he was already a little elegant when he stood with his hands in his hands.

Ah Xiu smiled lightly at him, and was about to give him the peace charm, when Song Tian entered the door, and when the curtain was lowered, he handed her a picture scroll, "I'll give it to you." ”

Song Tian's voice has changed, no longer bright and childish, and more hoarse and thick.

Ah Xiu could feel that he was no longer a child.

"Brother Tian, what is it?"

Ah Xiu took it, and was about to open it, but Song Tian held down his arm.

"You'll see when I'm gone."

Why wait for him to go.

Ah Xiu looked at him puzzled, and found that the young man was leaning sideways, and the tips of his ears were a little red.

Could it be that there are some verses such as Lang love and concubine in it?

Thinking about it like this, Ah Xiu's face also turned red, since the two of them grew up day by day, some things naturally couldn't be avoided.

Ah Xiu knew that he had been watching as if he was his fiancée, but in fact, he was similar, but after all, they were only thirteen or fourteen half-grown children, and their hearts beat like a drum when they encountered these things, how could they let go.

If you want to talk about Song Tian's appearance, Ah Xiu didn't care about it when the scars on his face were still there.

At this time, the scar is gone, although it leaves a light pink mark, but there is no doubt that he is not bad, and he can even be said to be handsome and elegant.

It's just that the person is still young now, his facial features have not fully grown, and his momentum has not been revealed, so he has lost some grace.

But Ah Xiu has seen him as an official in a dream, refreshing and sharp, and the bearing exuded by his body is rarely matched.

"Brother Tian, I also have something for you."

Ah Xiu bit her lower lip lightly and took out the bag that had been prepared a long time ago.

With the one just now, she was also a little embarrassed, she was originally an unmarried couple, and in this narrow boudoir, it was as if she was giving and receiving it privately.

Thinking like this, Ah Xiu's heart was twisted.

"Thank you."

Song Tian took it, took the bag in his hand and rubbed it twice, fell into his sleeve and said, "I have made an appointment with my classmates, and I will leave early tomorrow morning." ”

This time he was going to take the exam, Chang wanted her husband to send her son over, but Song Er didn't agree, first, there was a lot of work in the embroidery workshop, and secondly, he felt that his son was older, and there was Chen Jiali, a scholar, accompanying him, so it was not necessary at all.

Song Ercai was unwilling, and Chang could only give up in addition to worrying.

Song Tian didn't care, after all, there were more than a dozen classmates who went together.

"Brother Tian, bring back a letter when you settle down in the city."

After looking forward to it for so many years, Song Tian is finally going to end, and Ah Xiu is actually a little excited and excited.

If conditions permitted, she would like to accompany this person to catch the exam, but unfortunately she can't show up now, and she can't be busy in time.

"I know all of that."

Song Tian turned his head sideways, glanced at her, and his voice was low and hoarse, "This time, if we are lucky enough to achieve fame, we will ......"

He wanted to say if we could get married, but he couldn't say anything about her clear and bright eyes.

In another half a year, she will be fourteen and he will be fifteen, and she will be a little smaller, but even if you get married, it is not impossible.

But would she want to?

In Song Tian's eyes, Ah Xiu is still ignorant.

He knew very well that Ah Xiu was very good to him, but this kindness had been there since she came to this house.

She was only eight years old at the time, how could she have a relationship with him between men and women, it was nothing more than being his brother, and some were just family affection.

Now, Song Tian doesn't know if that feeling has changed.

He wanted to ask, but he was a little scared, and finally swallowed back the unspoken sentence.

"Wait for my good news, this time I won't disappoint you."

Song Tian gave her a deep look, turned around and went out.

After leaving, he went to the hall and said goodbye to Chang and Song Ercai.

Chang's eyes were wet, and he was somewhat relieved when he thought of his son going out.

Song Ercai let the mother and son say a few words, and then drove Chang out.

He poured tea for his son, talked about his experience in the examination room, and then asked, "Goodbye to Ah Xiu?" ”

Song Tian nodded, his eyes full of tenderness.

Song Ercai sighed secretly and said: "At the end of last month, Ah Xiu and I went to the city together, talking about business matters, and she is ready to develop in Shangjing and the Jiangnan area. ”

Jiangnan, Shangjing.

Song Tian listened silently and did not express his opinion.

At the beginning of the cloth village, he would ask about business from time to time, but when the plate was bigger, he basically didn't ask, and he didn't ask about things outside the window, and only read the sages and sages.

But today, my father made a special trip to mention, is there something to say?
