The Spring Festival passed quietly, on the eighth day of the first month of February, before dawn, Mrs. Cheng went to the Daxiangguo Temple to burn incense, in the middle of the night of the ninth month, Li Danruo sent Jiang Yanming to the gate of the tribute courtyard, and watched from a distance that the little red lantern flooded the lantern at the gate of the tribute courtyard, and could no longer be separated, so he put down the curtain and told the coachman to go back.
This test is nine days, on the day the Gongyuan opened, Pingfu crowded the door of the Gongyuan early, stretched his neck to look at the prisoners who came out one by one, and watched for a long time, only to see Jiang Yanming unkempt, his face was pale and gray, and he came out of the Gongyuan with a basket, Pingfu hurriedly waved his hand and shouted: "Fifth master!" This way! This way!" Jiang Yanming heard Pingfu's voice, hurriedly squeezed over, handed the basket to Pingfu, Pingfu hurriedly took the basket, helped Jiang Yanming, who was weak, squeezed out the crowd, and got into the car in a secluded alley next to him.
Li Danruo waited in the second door, saw the car coming in, and hurriedly sent Doulu back to report safety to Mrs. Cheng, and stepped forward to help Jiang Yanming, Jiang Yanming leaned on Li Danruo, yawned and said with a wry smile: "I can be regarded as surviving, it is really not easy to rush to the examination room overnight." Li Danruo looked carefully at Jiang Yanming, whose face was pale and obviously thin, and smiled distressedly: "This exam is really, how can you take the exam for so many days?" This is not a test of articles, but a test of physical strength. ”
"It's not, I'm weak, I'm going to die, it's okay, the three articles finally made a flower, according to you, manpower, and the rest is at the mercy of God." Jiang Yanming yawned and said: "That room is three feet wide and less than six feet deep, this year is really cold and evil, I haven't slept well in the past few nights, and it rained for two days in the middle, I have to take a hot bath to drive away the cold, and then sleep well, it's really worse than a prisoner!" Jiang Yanming sighed all the way.
Li Danruo watched Jiang Yanming take a bath and fall asleep, and then passed through the corner gate and reported to Mrs. Cheng.
Jiang Yanming slept until the next morning, then got up to eat, went to the next door to greet Mrs. Cheng, and talked about the exam for a while, and did not come back until nearly noon.
As soon as he turned into the weeping flower door, he bumped into Jiang Jingmo, who was playing with Sister Zhi and giggling, Jiang Jingmo saw Jiang Yanming, his eyes were round, and he looked at Jiang Yanming with surprise on his face, and suddenly rushed over and grabbed Jiang Yanming's clothes, turned his head to look at Sister Zhi'er and shouted excitedly: "Ah! Father!"
Sister Zhi ran to Jiang Yanming with a smile, stretched out her hand and pulled Jiang Jingmo, looked up at Jiang Yanming, every word was wrapped in a smile, and jumped out crisply: "Fifth uncle, you go to the exam, I told Brother Mo, he just didn't understand, and dragged me everywhere to find you, under the table, in the cabinet, I had to look for the big corners of the copper coins, and even the sewing basket had to be turned over, and while looking for it, I chanted the words 'Father?'" 'It's fun!'
Jiang Yanming squatted down, hugged Jiang Jingmo with one hand, and hugged Sister Zhi with the other and smiled: "Brother Mo misses his father?" ”
"Hmm!" Jiang Jingmo's head leaned back and even leaned back Jiang Yanming's hand, leaning back until he couldn't go down, and then focused on coming back, to show that he was very powerful, Jiang Yanming was about to melt away by his son's dim sum, kissed his son with a smile, pinched Sister Zhi'er's cheek again, picked up Jiang Jingmo with one hand, led Sister Zhi'er with the other, and went into the house.
When Li Danruo came in, Jiang Yanming was joking with Jiang Jingmo and Sister Zhi'er on the kang, Shen Mama lifted the curtain and let Li Danruo in, raised her chin at Jiang Yanming and said: "Look at it, Brother Mo has been riding him as a horse for a long time, and everyone says that he doesn't hold his grandson, he is good, and when his brother is older in the future, how can he be afraid?" This lawlessness can't be successful, and you can persuade him. ”
"What's the persuasion here, it's okay, I'm afraid I won't be on top." Li Danruo went to the cloak, looked at the kang and said with a smile, Mama Shen took the cloak, exhaled and said: "I know it's useless to tell you, forget it, the boat is naturally straight to the bridge, the brother is pure and good, and the person is smart, no matter what happens in the future, he will never become a talent, when will this list be released?" Pingfu said for more than half a month, for so long? I remember that a few years ago, the list was released in two days. ”
"It's been such a long time, and there is still a hope for the list that has not been released, and the list has been released......"
"Phew! Grandma said this, if you put the list, you must be in high school, and you will be among the best!"
Li Danruo laughed: "I think so too, I ask you Jiyan." ”
Mrs. Cheng counted the days like Mama Shen, and on the day of the list, before dawn, Mrs. Cheng got dark, and as soon as Doulu pushed the door open, Zhao came out of the wing room dressed neatly, looked at Doulu and smiled: "The old lady is up?" It's an hour early today. ”
"Big/Grandma is early, too." Dou Lu smiled, Zhao looked up at the sky and said, "If the list is released today, the sky is fine." ”
"It's also a matter of the hospital, and it's noisy early in the morning, so people can't sleep well!" In the next room, Su Er's grandmother choked a sentence without a good voice, the corners of Doulu's mouth pulled down, Zhao lowered his face and opened his mouth to block it back, and then thought of asking for an auspicious celebration today, and he didn't make a fuss about this idea early in the morning, and swallowed it back when he got to his mouth, but when he didn't hear it, he turned his head to look at Doulu and smiled: "I'll talk to the old lady, is the second aunt awake?" ”
"Not yet, but the nine ladies have already gotten up, and the teahouse behind her is looking at the white fungus soup, and the big/grandma is talking to the old lady, which also saves her anxiety." Dou Lu smiled and let Zhao Shi, helped her lift the curtain, and watched her enter the house before looking at breakfast in the back.
In the courtyard next door, the lights were already lit in the upper room, Li Danruo washed up and came in, Jiang Yanming also got up, looked at Li Danruo, and smiled slightly uneasily: "Okay, I have to be allowed to believe today, if it is ......"
"I quietly asked Mama Shen to change a basket of copper coins two days ago, and I don't know if it's enough." If Li Dan seemed to answer the question, Jiang Yanming raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Are you so sure?" ”
"Well, my husband, naturally he is the dragon and phoenix among people." Li Danruo smiled, Jiang Yanming was stunned, stretched out his hand and pressed Li Danruo's shoulder, looked down at her, opened his mouth, but laughed again, Li Danruo pursed his lips and smiled: "In the past, Mrs. Ning's wife asked someone to give me a life, saying that I am a rare husband to help my husband's life, you see, I am so good, you are so talented, isn't it unreasonable?" If you don't hit it, it's not time yet!"
Jiang Yanming laughed, hugged Li Danruo, picked her up and turned around for half a circle and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, my husband will definitely earn you a first-class lady back!"
"Madame or not, it's good or not, you just don't let me repent and persuade my husband to find a marquis." Li Danruo slid a sentence lightly, Jiang Yanming lowered her head and nodded her forehead, her voice low and slow: "No, I, Jiang Yanming, have sworn that I will never let you down in this life." ”
"When will you take the oath?" Li Danruo raised his head in surprise and asked, Jiang Yanming pointed to his chest with one hand and said, "From the day you said that you and I are the same husband and wife, and we want to advance and retreat as one." Li Danruo slowly raised his hand to Jiang Yanming's chest, and said in a low voice: "The disaster of the fallen city, just to fulfill a pair of people?" ”
"What did you say?" Jiang Yanming pressed Li Danruo's hand to his chest and asked.
"It's nothing, you go wash up, breakfast should be ready, after eating, let's wait for the good letter with peace of mind." Li Danruo pulled out his hand and smiled, Jiang Yanming raised his eyebrows: "Wait with peace of mind?" Can you settle down? ”
"Well," Li Danruo nodded seriously, Jiang Yanming frowned, leaned back and looked at her for a moment before he sighed and said, "Okay, peace of mind, I'm at ease." ”
Jiang Yanming ate uneasily, went out to see that it was still early, stood in the yard and thought about it, followed Li Danruo to the courtyard next door, and accompanied Mrs. Cheng without saying a few words, and was driven back by Mrs. Cheng.
Turning back again, seeing that the sky was bright, the sun was rising brightly and brightly, and it was getting closer and closer to the time of the list, Jiang Yanming looked at the sky in the yard with his hands behind his back for a while, and then went into the house to take the book, read a few pages and really couldn't read it, threw down his hand, studied the ink and laid the paper, dipped the pen in the ink, stayed for a long time, picked up the pen again, shook his hand and turned around the house a few times, and simply went out of the house again, stood in the yard, and listened attentively to the movement in the distance.
In the distance, a burst of cheers mixed with the sound of firecrackers sounded, Jiang Yanming's heart suddenly became a ball, and the list was released!
