Wan Lin didn't expect Fu Xiaojiu to settle things down so quickly, Wan Kai said this, Wan Lin was a little embarrassed, but Wan Zhang was more face-saving than Wan Lin, and said that Fu Xiaojiu was virtuous and thoughtful.

Not only Wanlin, but others have also begun to be together, some students are poor, they can't afford to hire a carriage, they have to leave in mid-June, the county school course will end at the end of May, and the rest of the time will have to rely on themselves to warm up the book.

Fu Xiaojiu's training class is still in full swing, she doesn't have to worry about the business of the hot pot shop, and Nianzhen has already taken care of the workshop.

Nianzhen's management ability was very unexpected by Fu Xiaojiu, under her arrangement, Fu Xiaojiu and Ji Sanniang's goods and medicines were not only sold to the border, but also sold well in the neighboring counties and towns.

Ji Sanniang is busy at both ends of the fat powder shop and the skewer shop, and she lives a very fulfilling life.

The weather is getting hotter day by day, and soon it will be the day when Wanlin is about to leave.

Fu Xiaojiu had already explained to Shen'er that she would accompany Wan Lin to the provincial city for the exam, so that Shen'er would be obedient at home.

However, even if San'er is sensible, he is only two years old, he is reluctant to leave Fu Xiaojiu for more than a month, and in the days when Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Lin are leaving, he is particularly sticky to Fu Xiaojiu.

Fu Xiaojiu deliberately took more time to accompany Shen'er, and when Wan Lin was free, he would tell Shen'er what the imperial examination was all about, no matter whether he could understand it or not, at least he had a concept of the imperial examination in his heart.

Fu Xiaojiu was afraid that Wan Lin would be bumpy on the road, so he prepared a thick mat to spread in the carriage, and also prepared a large number of medicinal herbs.

Wan Lin watched Fu Xiaojiu pack up a big burden from the house again, and hurriedly took it and asked, "Lady, although we are going to go for more than a month, we don't need to prepare so many things, right?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu insisted: "Although you can buy more things in the provincial capital than in the county seat, you can use the things you bring at home." It's the first time you've traveled so far, or you're going to take an exam, I'm going to make you comfortable! ”

Wan Lin said gratefully: "Thank you for your trouble, if I can't pass the exam, I can't live with my mother's hard work!" ”

Fu Xiaojiu immediately covered his mouth, "From today onwards, don't say that you can't pass the exam!" You're sure to get in! ”

Wan Lin smiled helplessly, "Okay, I'll never say it again!" ”

Tomorrow they will depart, and for the sake of convenience, the carriage will be brought to the house today.

It is more convenient to start from Wan Lin's house than from Wan Zhang's house, so Nianzhen and Wan Kai sent things over in advance, and Nianzhen also took a lot of things, and Wan Kai carried a big burden alone.

Fu Xiaojiu Nunu mouthed, "See, they also brought a lot of things." This is called the rich road of the poor, whether it is money or things, it is better to bring more. ”

"Okay, I'll listen to the lady's arrangement."

Wan Lin had already put the things into the carriage, and when he turned around, he saw that Wan Zhang also showed a rather helpless smile.

Wan Zhang walked up to Wan Lin and couldn't help complaining, "I said I didn't have to bring so many things, she didn't listen." I really can't help her. ”

Nianzhen urged: "Hurry up and put things in, you don't dislike Shen with it on your back!" Didn't I bring so many things for your own good? ”

After Nianzhen finished speaking, Fu Xiaojiu said: "They won't understand!" They will not know the use of these things until they feel that they are short of food and clothing. ”

"That's it! They don't understand anything! Nianzhen glanced at Wan Zhang, turned her face and asked Fu Xiaojiu, "Is everything arranged at your house?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu replied: "Well, I have arranged everything. You've got it all in your house, right? ”

Nianzhen said with reluctance: "Everything has been arranged, and I have also arranged the affairs of the workshop." It's just that I can't bear to be Enpei, I've never been separated from her, and when I told her today that we were leaving, she cried for a while. ”

When it comes to the child, Fu Xiaojiu also feels a little uncomfortable.

The township test is only held once every three years, and it carries the youth and hard work of many students, and compared with such an opportunity, it is worth the short separation from the family.

Fu Xiaojiu also reluctantly said: "San'er has been very sticky to me these days, I'm really afraid that if we leave, he will get angry." ”

"There's no way around it. If they are lucky enough to win the move this time, they will have to go to the capital next year...... Xiao Jiu, will you go with you when you go to the capital? ”

Nianzhen asked with anticipation in her eyes.

Fu Xiaojiu said without thinking: "Of course I'm going." I've wanted to go to the capital for a long time. To tell you the truth, if I pass the entrance examination, I plan to leave after the New Year, and rent a place in the city first, so that my husband can stay in the capital for a while and broaden my horizons. ”

Nianzhen said enviously and admirefully: "You think really long-term. But I won't necessarily be able to go with you then. ”

Fu Xiaojiu smiled, "I'll talk about it then." I just hope we go well this time! ”

Nianzhen held Fu Xiaojiu's wrist and said in a resolute tone, "With your auspicious star, everything will definitely go well!" ”

That night, Wan Pozi paid out of her own pocket and called everyone to the hot pot restaurant to eat, and let everyone practice it for Wan Lin and Fu Xiaojiu.

The Wan Da family and the Wan Er family both said blessings to Wan Lin, and the two families also took some silver to Wan Lin very sensibly to express their hearts.

Li Dalong and Ji Sanniang also took silver for Wan Lin, saying that they would celebrate Wan Lin when the list was announced.

San'er behaved unusually obediently tonight, sitting obediently between Wan Lin and Fu Xiaojiu, and ate everything in the bowl without being picky.

Fu Xiaojiu saw that Shen'er performed so well, but he was even more reluctant to him.

But considering that the child was still young, the road was still bumpy, and he was afraid that the child would be distracted by Wanlin, Fu Xiaojiu was still ruthless and did not take Shen'er away.

Because he was going on the road tomorrow, Wan Lin would inevitably be a little excited and nervous, lying on the bed and holding Fu Xiaojiu's hand tightly, closing his eyes but not falling asleep.

Fu Xiaojiu noticed that he was not asleep, and gently scratched his palm, "If you can't sleep, let's chat." ”

Wan Lin immediately opened his eyes and looked at Fu Xiaojiu

"Lady, why do I think the days go by so quickly? It seems that we just got married yesterday, why am I going to go to the township to try it out one day? So much has happened since we got married. I was thinking just now, we used to live in a mud tile house, and we were crop households who scavenged in the soil and relied on the sky for food, how could we suddenly live in such a good green tile house, as well as a medical hall, a hot pot shop and a workshop, and we were all rewarded by the saints? I'm not dreaming, am I? ”

Fu Xiaojiu chuckled and said, "You haven't fallen asleep yet, how do you dream?" ”

Wan Lin suddenly let go of Fu Xiaojiu's hand, stretched out his arm to let her pill, and then took her into his arms, and whispered in her ear: "My good luck is only after marrying you, I want to thank my lady." ”

Fu Xiaojiu said boldly: "You gave me such a good child as Ginseng, it should be regarded as your thank you gift." ”

"Sam'er doesn't count, he's also a gift from you. I have to think about how I can thank my mother if I win. ”

Wan Lin said that, and really thought about it seriously.

Shen'er, who was sleeping next to Fu Xiaojiu, kicked off the quilt in her sleep at this time, and Fu Xiaojiu turned around and covered him with the quilt.

"San'er, wait for Daddy to come back and bring you good news!"

Fu Xiaojiu kissed Shen'er lightly on the face, and Shen'er actually raised the corners of her mouth.

"Our son said that you can be admitted!" Fu Xiaojiu said affirmatively.

Wan Lin pouted, "Why didn't I hear our son talk?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu's tone was a little more affirmative, "Our son just knows!" ”

Wan Lin hugged Fu Xiaojiu again, and said in an extraordinarily affirmative tone: "Okay, I believe in our son!" He said that if I can get in, I will definitely be able to get in! ”

As Wan Lin spoke, he suddenly felt a wave of fatigue on his body, and he fell asleep unconsciously.

Wan Lin slept very soundly this night, as if all his thoughts had been left behind.

In the morning, Fu Xiaojiu heard the rooster crow, and he got up.

Shen'er and Wan Lin were still asleep, and Fu Xiaojiu wanted them to sleep more, so he got out of bed lightly.

"Lady, are you awake?" Wan Lin opened his eyes, and the moment he woke up, he felt refreshed and his brain was exceptionally clear.

Fu Xiaojiu said while packing up his things: "I still want you to sleep more, you lie down again, it's still early before the time to leave." ”

Wan Lin couldn't sleep, for fear of disturbing Shen'er, so he sat up slowly, and San'er also woke up at this time.

"Come to Shen'er, let Daddy hug you!"

Wan Lin hugged Shen'er, and Shen'er was very obedient today, and he didn't dislike his father anymore, and even took the initiative to hug Wan Lin's neck and rub it into his arms.

"Good ginseng, my father and mother will be back soon, you have to listen to your grandparents and aunts at home, you know?"

Wan Lin said that his nose was a little sour.

Ginseng raised her head at this time, touched Wan Lin and said, "Daddy, the nose is swollen ......"

Wan Lin hurriedly glanced at Fu Xiaojiu first, and found that Fu Xiaojiu was still packing up his things, and did not look at him, Wan Lin hurriedly sniffed his nose and whispered to Shen'er: "Daddy is not a swollen nose, but a sour nose." My good son is really getting more and more sensible. ”

Wan Lin felt that Shen'er had finally grown up again, and began to know that he felt sorry for his old father.

Wan Pozi cooked early, she was afraid that they would eat too oily and upset their stomachs, so she deliberately made some light meals, and also baked ten oil cakes, boiled more than ten tea eggs, and let them take them to eat on the road.

As soon as Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Lin left the house, Wan Pozi came over and gave Fu Xiaojiu a silver ticket.

"This is my mother's intention, you take it, don't lose yourself outside."

What Mrs. Wan gave Fu Xiaojiu was a silver ticket of one hundred taels, which was half of the savings she had accumulated for so long.

Fu Xiaojiu pushed back Wan Pozi's silver ticket, and said with a smile: "Mother, we don't want your silver." We have prepared two hundred taels of silver, which we will not be able to spend even with our eyes closed. ”

Wan Pozi stubbornly insisted: "Your silver is your silver, and my silver is my silver, can this be the same?" If you don't, I'm going to be upset. ”

Wan Lin smelled the aroma of rice at this time, and said, "Mother, your craftsmanship is your heart." We don't want the silver, but there's something I ask you to take with us. ”
