Chapter 107: Rushing to Beijing to take the exam
February has arrived, Fu Yunshen packed his bags and prepared to enter Beijing.
Wu Mingyue was still weak due to a serious illness, and he planned to leave again after a while, so he would not go with Fu Yunshen.
In fact, he also has selfish intentions, he has just reconciled with Fu Raohua, and he wants to spend more time with her to stabilize his relationship.
However, Fu Raohua doesn't have so much heart to talk about love now, the hair cream she developed has already achieved initial results, and she wants to make a finished product before Zhou Jingrong leaves and put it into mass production.
Zhou Jingrong saw that she was full of energy, so she simply entrusted Drunken Huayin to her management, which was also convenient for her and the perfumer to discuss the development of new products, and the original steward of Drunken Huayin was transferred to fill Qin Sang's vacancy on the water side.
Fu Raohua is even busier now, smoothing out the account books, getting familiar with daily work, and asking Zhou Jingrong for advice on the response mechanism for emergencies, which is very dedicated, and he has no time to see Wu Mingyue, which makes him very depressed.
Zhou Jingrong said to her with relief: "Niang, you have changed a lot. ”
Although Fu Raohua's personality is lively and cheerful, she is not confident. This is also a common problem of women in this era, the social status is suppressed by men, and they are trapped in the back house all the year round, and they cannot contact the outside world, so the ideological pattern will inevitably be a little narrow.
But now, Fu Raohua's body obviously exudes a confident brilliance, adding a layer of temperament that cannot be ignored to her.
Fu Raohua said with a smile: "My mother also said that I grew up, speaking of which, second sister-in-law, I also want to thank you." ”
Zhou Jingrong was a little surprised: "Thank me?" ”
Fu Raohua nodded vigorously, looking at Zhou Jingrong's expression with some eager gratitude and admiration: "It was you who took me out and let me see the bustle and prosperity of the outside world." It was also you who encouraged me to give full play to my strengths and realize my value. When I walked out of the back house, I realized that the world was very big, and the things I had been worried about before were not a big deal. In that case, what am I afraid of? After Zhou Jingshu's incident, I found out that I minded Cousin Yue's concubine. It's just that in the past, I would compromise, and I would pretend to be generous because of fame and worldly opinions, and all I got was self-suffering. But I won't be aggrieved and patient in the future, Zhou Jingshu was an accident, and I won't let this kind of accident happen a second time. I'm not afraid of anything happening again, even if I leave anyone, I have the capital to settle down, and my life won't go on. Second sister-in-law, it was you who gave me more courage. ”
The courage that Fu Raohua said should be called confidence, confidence is not necessarily given by material, and a stronger confidence is spiritual wealth.
As long as you are good enough, you don't have to be afraid of anyone or anything. As the saying goes, if you are in full bloom, the breeze will come.
Fu Raohua not only grows, but also completes a spiritual transformation. Zhou Jingrong believes that her heart has become strong enough, because she knows how to create happiness for herself, rather than blindly relying on others.
After a busy few days, Fu Yunshen packed up, Zhou Jingrong also explained the things in the shop, plus Qin Sang, the three of them took a few maids and coachmen who were waiting close to them on the road together.
Mrs. Fu was not at ease, so she asked Fu Yu to lead someone to send Fu Yunshen and others to Beijing.
Fu Yunshen pretended to agree, and when Fu Yu sent them out of Puhe County, he let him go back. The Fu family is full of old and young women and children, and there is no adult male to protect them, how can Fu Yunshen rest assured.
The hard days of rushing have officially arrived, and Zhou Jingrong has long expected that this long-distance trip will not be very comfortable.
Because it is winter, the sky and the earth are vast, and there is no beautiful scenery. It's cold, I can't get out of the car to play, and I don't even want to open the windows.
Although the carriage was spacious, covered with wool blankets and soft quilts, and set up a stove, she was trapped in this square inch every day, which made Zhou Jingrong feel like she was being packed in a swaying box, and her hands and feet could not stretch her hands and feet, which made her miss modern transportation very much.
Although I have thought that there will be many inconveniences, people who are in love are always more emotional than rational. Thinking of separating from Fu Yunshen for so long, Zhou Jingrong still agreed to accompany him to Beijing to take the exam without hesitation.
The days of rushing are boring, but fortunately, Fu Yunshen has been prepared. He took out the chessboard and planned to teach Zhou Jingrong to play chess.
Zhou Jingrong thought that Fu Yunshen had prepared something fun, but when he saw Go, he immediately lacked interest.
But Qin Sang was eager to try, she had studied piano, chess, calligraphy and painting for a geisha, and was more proficient than some famous ladies.
Fu Yunshen and Qin Sang played against each other, and while the two were learning chess skills, they explained the doorway to Zhou Jingrong.
It's a pity that these two masters are so dedicated that they can't let Zhou Jingrong, an apprentice, go out of school.
Zhou Jingrong, who is used to playing video games, really can't comprehend the fun of playing chess, the intellectual game on the chessboard, the silent sword light and sword shadow are too dull for her, how can there be a game in which she works together with her teammates, and the bloody fight is fun and interesting.
She looked at it, nodded her head like a chick pecking rice, and fell asleep after a while.
As a result, at night, Zhou Jingrong, who slept too much during the day, lost sleep, and she couldn't sleep over and over, waking up Fu Yunshen, who was about to fall asleep.
Fu Yunshen held her down, turned over and propped herself up above her, and his low voice was particularly ambiguous: "Since you can't sleep, let's do some exercises that help you fall asleep!" ”
Zhou Jingrong stopped Fu Yunshen's dishonest claws and warned: "Qin Sang lives next door, you give me honesty!" ”
It's just a temporary stop on the way, and it's very simple. Zhou Jingrong even felt that the thin wall would shatter if he pushed it hard, not to mention the sound insulation effect.
Fu Yunshen put his hands on her ears and smiled with his eyebrows: "It's okay, she can't hear it." ”
Zhou Jingrong sneered, kicked Fu Yunshen out of bed, covered his ears and stole the bell, are you a fool to be an old lady?
The next day, the energetic Zhou Jingrong finally thought of a fun game to pass the time, that is, werewolf killing!
She called Qin Sang, Xian Ge, Yayi, Shifeng, Yanfeng, and the little girl Yulu who followed Qin Sang to the carriage she was riding, and called everyone to play werewolf killing with her, ignoring Fu Yunshen, who was kicked out of bed last night, silently exuding resentment beside her.
In the company of this game, which I didn't get tired of playing all day, the group laughed all the way, and finally arrived in the town in the evening and settled in the regular inn.
Zhou Jingrong didn't care about the fatigue of the journey, so he first had a good meal, then took Qin Sang out to visit the night market, and then swept the snack street.
Zhou Jingrong just bought and bought in the front, Fu Yunshen followed behind and kept paying, and Shifeng and Yanfeng followed him with big bags and small bags.
Fu Yunshen looked at Zhou Jingrong, who was walking happily, with a satisfied smile on his face, this feeling of spending money on his daughter-in-law is so refreshing!
Both the wind of the world and the wind of words said that there was no, whether the meat was not delicious or the wine was not delicious, why should the money be spent on women?
Look at what the second grandmother bought, a bunch of useless trinkets, she bought more than a dozen of them just for the sugar man, what a loser, a loser!
Zhou Jingrong didn't know that she had been labeled as a "loser" by the world and the wind of words, and was talking to Qin Sang that the flower basket made of bamboo strips was very beautiful, when someone suddenly passed by and bumped into Qin Sang, causing her to almost fall.
Zhou Jingrong hurriedly supported Qin Sang, and just wanted to spit on the person who bumped into someone but didn't apologize, Qin Sang suddenly exclaimed: "My money bag is gone!" ”
The person who had just bumped into Qin Sang heard her voice and immediately quickened his pace, wanting to blend in with the crowd.
Zhou Jingrong looked over vigilantly, caught the figure at a glance, she strode forward, stretched out her arms and grabbed the man's sleeve.
The man obviously didn't expect to be pulled by someone, he was stunned for a moment, and then shook off Zhou Jingrong suddenly, raised his legs and ran.
Zhou Jingrong subconsciously chased after her, she ran every day to exercise, so even if she chased a man at this time, she did not fall behind.
But that person seemed to be a habitual offender, and he was extremely familiar with the terrain, relying on turning left and right and concealment in the dark, he finally threw Zhou Jingrong away.
Zhou Jingrong realized that she ran too far, not only lost someone, but also walked into a small alley in a daze.
The winter night was gloomy, there was no moon in sight, there were no shops in the remote alleys, and naturally there were no lanterns, and the black hands could not be seen, only the creaking of shoes on the snow could be heard.
Zhou Jingrong was a little scared, she was holding on to the wall and groping forward, but suddenly saw a figure faintly appearing at the entrance of the alley, slowly walking towards her.
Zhou Jingrong immediately stopped moving, her body was tightly pressed against the wall, she didn't dare to let out of her breath, suspecting that the person was the thief she was chasing, otherwise who would go to such a dark place if she had nothing to do, so she quietly clenched her fists.
When the figure approached, Zhou Jingrong unceremoniously preemptively threw a punch, but he didn't know where it hit, only to hear the man snort.
Zhou Jingrong continued to attack with both hands and feet, Xu was too late to fight back due to an accident, the man only cared about screaming, and fell to the ground in a panic.
Zhou Jingrong put her knee against the man's back, half-knelt on him, locked his neck with her arm, and shouted: "Little thief, hand over the money bag quickly!" ”
"Ahem, woman, you recognize, you recognize the wrong person, here, not a thief!"
The man spoke intermittently, and because one hand was pressed under him, he could not resist, so he had to free the other hand and take out a fire from his bosom and light it.
The faint light of the fire seemed insignificant in this thick darkness, and it seemed that it would soon be swallowed up, but it was enough for Zhou Jingrong to see the face of the person in front of him clearly.
The man also saw Zhou Jingrong clearly, and was surprised with joy: "Hey, woman, Miss Zhou, oh, no, it should be Mrs. Fu." Sorry, I always call it wrong. ”
"Cheng Gongzi?!"
Zhou Jingrong was also surprised that the person who was beaten up by her as a thief turned out to be Cheng Fei, which was really a coincidence.
