Finally came to the day of the list, Yan Yizhi overslept, and when she woke up, Han Yuqi and others had already gone out to see the list, she complained that Xing'er didn't wake her up early, and on the other hand, she urgently dressed and combed her bun, and went out of the house with an amber crane.

When I arrived at the Ministry of Rites, dozens of layers of human walls were already bustling in front of the light ink list, countless carriages and horses to choose sons-in-law were parked on both sides of the road, and rich ladies who were waiting to be married were dressed up in flowers, surrounded by nurses and maids, looking at the new imperial examination. Yan Yizhi hurriedly jumped out of the car and pulled Li Ping to open the way for her.

Li Ping used his sturdy arms to push away the crowd while moving towards the front of the list.

However, there are so many people watching the list, Yan Yizhi was pushed out of the crowd before she could keep up, she looked at the back of the man in front of her, and couldn't squeeze in anymore, so she tiptoed and called Li Ping. Li Ping was squeezed into the crowd, his feet were trampling, his flesh was rubbing his flesh, and his situation was very difficult, so he could only shout at the top of his voice: "Girl, don't come in, wait for me to squeeze in and see the situation." ”

Yizhi was anxious, where could he wait, and said, "You can't read and write......"

Xing'er persuaded: "Girl, you can't help Li Ping when he is so strong, you should rest from the side." ”

Although Yizhi was anxious, he could only hang his head and return to the carriage to wait. After only sitting for a while, I heard someone knock on the car, lifted the curtain to look, and saw that it was Su Zimei and Wen Yanbo, the white-jade-like sons, and couldn't help but say happily: "Have you seen the list?" ”

The two smiled and nodded, Yizhi hurriedly got off the carriage, hurriedly stood still, said Wanfu, and asked tightly, "How did you two do in the exam?" Su Zimei replied: "In the same rank, Brother Yanbo is the fourteenth." He said with a slight pride: "I am the second." ”

Yizhi smiled and said continuously: "Okay, good, that's good." He laughed again.

Su Zimei and Wen Yanbo laughed together when they saw her naïve, and Su Zimei continued: "Speaking of which, a few people from Qingming Academy also did well in the exam. Yi Zhi hurriedly said: "I haven't found them, and I don't know any news." ”

Su Zimei asked, "Didn't you come together?" ”

Yizhi was slightly stunned, and said softly: "I...... I woke up late, so I didn't get together. ”

Wen Yanbo said with a smile: "I just took a look, and vaguely remembered that Shi Jie's ranking was the first, Han Yuqi was the ninth in the second grade, and Ouyang Xu was ......."

Yizhi's heart jumped, and he hurriedly said: "Is it in the middle?" Did the third brother hit? ”

Su Zimei said: "Hit, hit, I confirmed that I saw it, but I was at the bottom of the ranking, and before I could see it clearly, I asked someone to squeeze it out." Yizhi frowned and smiled for a while, stabilized his emotions, and said: "It's strange that they can't find them, they are such talents, maybe they have been arrested by some rich and powerful man, and they are forced to be sons-in-law." As she spoke, she laughed again, and she was extremely satisfied with such a result, and she couldn't help but indulge in joy and couldn't extricate herself. Suddenly, he remembered something again, raised his eyes and said to Wen Yanbo: "Hey, why didn't Second Brother Wen be snatched away?" ”

Su Zimei said with a smile: "For a character like him, the family naturally has enough nursing homes to spare him to go out." Besides, the official Wen and Mrs. Wen are here, who would dare. ”

Yizhi nodded again and again, and smiled again and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Su Zimei and Wen Yanbo glanced at each other and said, "I'll have a few private words with Yizhi. After speaking, he hugged Yizhi in his arms, took two steps to the side, and said in a low voice: "A few days ago, Yanbo invited us to go to his tea garden to pick tea, but I still remember." Remembering the unknown, he nodded, and Su Zimei continued: "Tea picking has to start at the end of the day, can you get up?" Yizhi shook his head decisively and said, "If you can't get up, don't count me." ”

Su Zimei was a little anxious: "This can't be done, Yingqiu has not been happy for the past two days, how about you if you don't come again." ”

Yizhi understood and said, "Then you won't wait for Sister Yingqiu's body to be refreshed before going to pick it." ”

"The tea in front of the Spring Society is the best, where can I wait."

Yizhi said angrily: "Could it be that there are no tea farmers in Second Brother Wen's family, and he wants us to help, and we go to pick tea just for fun, so we have to do something good." Anyway, I'm not going, you've used me once, don't think about a second time. ”

Su Zimei said: "Hey, how can you use it." ”

Memory: "You touch your conscience and think about it, your sister and I haven't been out of the cabinet yet, always let me be a matchmaker, and after taking this pair, I will take the next pair." You are not afraid of touching my moldy head and making me unable to marry. ”

Su Zimei saw that she was clever and said with a smile: "Good sister, your resources are still small, which one of these people in Qingming Yuan is not good, Sister Zhen is not like you, she is a pitiful, how about you help her." ”

Yizhiben lowered his voice to talk to Su Zimei, and when he saw him defending Sheng Yuzhen, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous, and even raised his voice slightly, and said: "You are too difficult for me, I am not familiar with that Sheng Yuzhen, why do you want me to help her." Even if I have the ability to promote this pair, you are close to each other, even if you are brothers-in-law and brothers, and you leave me aside, what do I want? ”

Seeing that she raised her voice, Su Zimei hurriedly turned back to look at Wen Yanbo, and lightly pressed her shoulders with both hands, and escorted her to a more secluded place. After taking a few more steps inside, Yan Yizhi twisted his shoulders slightly, avoiding Su Zimei, and said angrily: "You are so sneaky, it is difficult to do it, pull the line for him, and hide it from him." ”

Su Zimei paid attention to Wen Yanbo and said in a low voice: "On the Shangyuan Festival, he and Sister Zhen also met for the first time. I asked privately about my impressions, and it was not bad. Good sister, Yingqiu begged me, I can't help it. ”

Yizhi was angry, deliberately didn't look at Su Zimei, and said: "I can see through you, with a wife, I just blindly please her, and throw my sister out of the clouds." ”

Su Zimei hurriedly said: "My God, what are you talking about, you still can't do it without me...... As long as you help me this time, you can do anything. ”

Yizhi raised his eyelids, slanted at Su Zimei, and said angrily: "Then I want a complete set of dotted green heads." ”

Su Zimei gasped: "Diancui? ”

Yizhi couldn't help but laugh and said, "Tease you, where do I care about that." Seeing his extremely difficult appearance, he couldn't bear it, so he sighed lightly and asked, "What day is the appointment?" ”

"Tomorrow."

Yizhi was angry again, and said, "In such a hurry, I see that you didn't plan to take me with you." ”

Su Zimei said helplessly: "When a character like you goes to that station, even in my eyes it is difficult to tolerate others, not to mention Zhen'er's mouthless gourd, how can I take you." ”

Yizhi was angry and laughed, and said, "Then why did you always take me with you in the past." ”

"That's naturally to show off, you followed your uncle out of the school, and the style was different from others, speaking softly and timidly, but hiding needles in the middle. He also knows how to measure himself, and he can always take a detour without embarrassing people. Where is the daughter of others and half of you? You are accustomed to me, and my friends are greedy and want to see you again, and they will beg me. Su Zimei pinched her eyes and said, "My cousin has done a very good job. ”

Yizhi guessed that Su Zimei was currying favor with nonsense, but he felt that he was very good, so his anger disappeared halfway, but he didn't want to let him succeed easily, so he deliberately put on his face.

Su Zimei observed Yizhi's face and saw that it had eased a lot, so she said tightly: "If it weren't for my uncle's wealth and good fortune, and he would be angry, then I wouldn't be able to eat enough to please me just for you." Seeing that he said it sincerely, his face was full of indignation, and he frowned slightly and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it's hard to make up such a thing for you to coax me, I'll just go." ”

Su Zimei saw that Yi Zhi was relieved, and hurriedly said: "Sister is very gracious, my brother is grateful, if these two can succeed, there will be heavy gratitude." ”

Yizhi asked, "What thanks?" ”

Su Zimei said: "I know that you love to eat fresh lychees, and when it comes to the season of lychees, I will definitely buy two large baskets, save them with ice and snow, and rent a special boat to send them to you." ”

Yizhi's heart lit up, and he said softly: "Really." ”

Su Zimei nodded, remembering the lychee, and didn't want to miss the smile, so she bit her lower lip and endured it.

After the two of them made up their minds, they met with Wen Yanbo, and the three of them talked for a while, and Yizhi hurried to go home to report the good news, so he said goodbye to Su Zimei and Wen Yanbo, and went home in a carriage.

When I got home, the procession of the annunciation had already come, and there were traces of firecrackers and artillery battles outside the gate. When she walked into the Qingming Courtyard, she heard the sound of everyone laughing in the house, she quickened her pace and entered the house, only to see Yan Shu sitting high in front of the hall, Fu Liangbi standing under him, Han Yuqi, Shi Jie, and Ouyang Xu turned their backs to Yizhi and were thanking Shien.

Yizhi straightened his clothes, and while walking into the hall, he said, "You came back earlier than me, didn't you call someone to arrest you?" The three people who turned their backs to her heard the voice, looked back, and saw that the faces of the three were full of red light, and they were twenty points of joy, so they smiled and said Wanfu, and said: "The little girl has seen three big officials. ”

The new imperial examiners, you look at me, I look at you, laughed one after another, hurriedly made a return salute, and participated in the governor's daughter one by one. Everyone joked with each other for a while, and Shi Jie said: "Where did Sister Yizhi go, she came back later than us, could it be that someone wants to arrest you as a son-in-law?" ”

Yizhi pursed his lips and said, "Someone asked me to be a matchmaker, so it was delayed." ”

Shi Jie's right hand waved forward and said, "You can't marry yourself, who is so bold that you want to be a matchmaker?" And they all laughed again.

Yizhi glanced at Shi Jie with disgust, and did not talk to him poorly, only walked quickly to the high hall, took one of the three volumes of golden flower posts on the plum blossom-style lacquer, read it first, and then read the remaining two volumes, and learned that Shi Jie was the twelfth in the first class, Han Yuqi was the ninth in the second class, and Ouyang Xu was the one hundred and eighth in the third class, so Xiao Yingying raised her head and said to Yan Shu: "Today is really a great joy, my cousin and the second brother of Tongwen are also in high school, and they are the second class...... I can't remember how many names came, but in short, it's good. ”

Everyone knew that she had always been an unintentional person, so they were not surprised and laughed again.

It is the atmosphere of full joy, Su walked into the house with her chest straight, her eyes were full of joy, and she was happy to the three of them, Jiang's mother followed her with a lacquer plate containing a red wedding bag, and it was also a clever tongue, which made the original joyful atmosphere even more hot, Su Shi greeted you for a while, and then ordered Jiang's mother to hold the lacquer plate high and present it to Fu Liangbi, who was supported by Fu Liangbi, and then asked Yan Shu to distribute it to Han Yuqi, Shi Jie, and Ouyang Xu.

The three thanked the teacher, the teacher, and the mother Jiang, everyone was happy and lively, and the sky outside also darkened, Yan Rong came to report that the table had been prepared. Led by Yan Shu and Su, the three of them joined forces, covered with silver moonlight, passed under the verandah and walked to the dining room.

Everyone ate and drank in the dining hall for a while, and the Su family sent a half-grown boy Su Fu to report the good news, and the Su family was even more cheerful, and rewarded Su Fu with a lot of money, and after Su Fu thanked Su Fu's mother, he secretly gave Yizhi a look, and then retreated to the corridor.

Yizhi put down his teeth, quietly followed, and asked Su Fu the reason, Su Fu said: "The eldest brother repeatedly told the little one to tell the little one to go to bed early tonight, and the provincial one can't get up tomorrow morning, and the big thing is wrong." ”

Yizhi pouted slightly and said: "It's hard for him to be so attentive, you just tell him that I, Yan Yizhi, can do anything for those two baskets of fresh lychees, tell him to put a hundred hearts, and eat his noodles." ”

Su Fu gave birth to a square long face with a sharpened chin, thin eyes and a small nose, a few years younger than his actual age, he bowed his small body and said: "Where can my brother be idle, he doesn't want to eat the banquet at home, he will listen to music in Sweet Water Lane." ”

Yizhi frowned and asked, "Do you still go to the Qinglou on such a day?" ”

Su Fu nodded and said: "What kind of sex is the eldest brother, you don't know yet, girl, he has always been a birthday, and he doesn't care what day or what is lively, the interest is here, and he has to do what he wants to do. ”

Yizhi smiled bitterly and asked again, "Second Brother Wen also went?" ”

"What kind of tutor is the Wen family, what kind of style is the Wen official, his eyebrows are glaring, and the power is enough to involve half the street. Second brother Wen naturally can't mess around, I heard that he ate the family banquet first, and then went to our brother's appointment. ”

Yizhi said angrily: "The string of good things you said in front of you will also go in the end, hum, a raccoon dog." ”

Su Fu is a big ghost, and said: "Girl, don't like to listen, this is a very common thing, which man doesn't like flowers and willows." ”

Remembering the way: "What are you doing with me, go and return to your life." ”

Su Fu smiled and said, "If I can talk to the girl a few more words, I feel comfortable." ”

Although Yizhi saw that he was stupid and happy, and he was not frivolous, he couldn't let go of the rules because of this, so he thought about how to teach him a lesson with a straight face.

It just so happened that Li Ping was guarding under the corridor, and when he heard this half-grown kid speaking out of form, he strode over and slapped him on the back of the head, Su Fu slapped him coldly, shrunk his neck and looked back, seeing that it was the burly Li Ping, he smiled flatteringly: "Brother Li Ping, what are you doing beating me." ”

Li Pingyuan glared at him and said, "How old are you, where did you learn the oily tone, carefully let me tell your brother and ask him to teach you a lesson." ”

Su Fu smiled and said, "Don't, don't, don't, but don't, if my brother knows that I talk to my cousin like this, where will I live." I'll get out, I'll get out right away. While laughing, he trotted and ran away.

Li Ping saw that Yizhi's face did not recover, and persuaded: "He is just a fool, the girl is worth thinking about with him." ”

Yizhi sighed slightly, and said: "Where am I angry with him, at his age, he should have been given the power of enlightenment and enlightenment, but he was poor and lonely, and when he was older, he left the Salesian Institute and wandered the streets, learning a worldly bad tune."

My father tried his best to run a school of righteousness and raise a protégé. is quite accomplished, but the world is so big, how can it be taken into account. He sighed again.

Li Ping said: "If you want me to say, the girl is too careful, where everyone is reading and being a big official, such as me, I am a reckless man, I am asked to read and write, I will never be able to." I don't understand most of the poems that the girl says and reads, and I don't think I have to.

It can be said that if everyone goes to study and become a big official, then who will carry the rice and noodles, who will slaughter the cattle and sheep, there must always be such a person, and such a person, blending with each other, what is the word called, each performing its own duties, and this day can work. He scratched his head again and said, "I am nonsense, and I am not organized, and the words I use are rough, I don't know if the girl can understand or not." ”

Yizhi couldn't imagine that Li Ping had such an open opinion, and after listening to his words, she felt that her concept was very narrow and even more biased, she laughed and said softly: "I think you said it very well." ”

Li Ping smiled at Yizhi, Yu Guang saw something, then lowered his head, stood aside, Yizhi thought who was coming, looked back, it was Fu Liangbi, he was wearing a round-necked frost-colored narrow-sleeved heron pattern brocade robe, wearing Ninghui, showing more eyebrows and eyes, Yizhi secretly sighed that he was now magnificent, and asked: "Why did you come out?" ”

Fu Liangbi said: "I saw you come out, and I don't know what I was delayed by, so I didn't come back for a long time, so I was curious to come out and take a look." ”

Yizhi raised his head to look at the night sky, the blue sky was faint, a bright moon hung high, half hidden in the clouds, and the moonlight was crystal clear. She said, "I see that the moonlight is very good, so I am stupid." ”

Fu Liangbi smiled and said: "If you were here in the past, whenever there was a banquet, you would always eat from beginning to end, why did you suddenly have the interest of admiring the moon today." ”

Yizhi sighed with emotion: "I don't know, it's a big day, how can I feel depressed in my heart, I always feel unhappy." After a long breath, he lifted his mood again, and said, "Go back, so as not to worry them." ”

Fu Liangbi nodded, stood aside, and when Yizhi walked by, he followed and entered the dining room side by side with her.
