Chapter 117: Selected for the Temple Examination
It was already late tomorrow, but Ruan Shi was not sleepy at all, she didn't know what was wrong with her, Xi'er, who was already asleep, felt very uncomfortable.
This night is destined to be sleepless.
But the morning sun is still so dazzling, for people who have just woken up, this sunlight is very warm, but for Ruan, it is very dazzling.
Everyone else was busy with what they should be busy with, and Ruan, who had been sitting there all night, still didn't move at all, and there was no thought in his heart.
I thought about it all night and didn't figure it out, and I didn't have a better way to deal with this matter in my heart, but I was not willing to accept reality.
Tong Zhinuo was instructing people to do something in the courtyard this morning, and two people suddenly came to the hall, and Tong Zhinuo went over curiously to take a look.
Meng Xiaoyan hugged Tong Zhinuo when she saw her excitedly, "Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Tong Zhinuo was also surprised, "Why are you here?" ”
Meng Yuanzhou said dissatisfiedly: "Look at your reaction, don't you welcome us here?"
"Where, I mean you don't come to say hello in advance, I'm ready to prepare." Tong Zhinuo hurriedly explained.
"There's nothing to prepare, let's just go out to dinner, haha." Meng Yuanzhou said with a sigh.
Meng Xiaoyan glared at her brother fiercely, "Have you forgotten what happened when you went out to eat before?" ”
Meng Yuanzhou touched the back of his head in embarrassment, "How could you forget?" But today we are here to congratulate him, so we are going to eat out. ”
"Hehe?" Tong Zhinuo asked suspiciously, "What kind of congratulations?"
Meng Yuanzhou looked at Tong Zhinuo's puzzled eyes and asked in surprise, "Don't you know?" Your brother didn't tell you? ”
"What did my brother tell me?" Tong Zhinuo asked puzzled.
Meng Xiaoyan saw that Tong Zhinuo didn't understand, and explained in understanding: "Sister, Brother Zhiyan has been selected and wants to be selected for the palace examination."
Tong Zhinuo's eyes widened in disbelief, and he hurriedly asked, "Is this news true?"
"Really! Otherwise, how could we have come here to congratulate you! Meng Yuanzhou said helplessly: "Go and call your brother!" Why don't you care about such a big thing! ”
When Tong Zhinuo heard this, he didn't care about etiquette, so he went directly to Tong Zhiyan's courtyard and called his brother loudly, but there was no response for a long time.
The maid on the side slowly spoke: "Miss, the young master went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet!"
Tong Zhinuo didn't say anything, and returned to the hall in a hurry, Meng Yuanzhou saw her come back and hurriedly asked, "Where is your brother?"
"I wasn't at home, I went out early in the morning." Tong Zhinuo said disappointedly.
"I'm back." Suddenly, there was a voice outside the door, and everyone's eyes looked at it.
Tong Zhinuo saw that it was his brother who came back, and stepped forward excitedly, "Brother, what are you doing, I want to tell you good news." ”
"Well, I have good news for you." Tong Zhiyan said with a smile.
Meng Yuanzhou looked at Tong Zhiyan's appearance, and almost guessed it, "I think you two should be talking about the same thing!" ”
"Huh?" Tong Zhiyan was a little surprised, but when he saw Meng Yuanzhou here, he instantly understood, and said slowly: "Maybe!" No, let's talk about it first! ”
Tong Zhinuo said happily: "Brother, you have been selected, and you are going to be selected for the palace examination."
Tong Zhiyan reached out and touched her hair, not surprised at all, "I went out in the morning just for this, and I told you one thing." ”
"No wonder!" Tong Zhinuo complained dissatisfiedly.
Meng Xiaoyan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Zhiyan, congratulations!"
Tong Zhiyan smiled and glanced at Meng Yuanzhou lightly, "You're not bad!" ”
Meng Yuanzhou said triumphantly: "You too!"
"Hahahaha......"
The two laughed in unison, and the sound coming from the hall surrounded the entire Tong Mansion.
The speed of the news spread very quickly, and after a while, the entire capital knew the news, and Tong Zhen couldn't hide the smile on his face on the way back from the next dynasty.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw four people sitting in the hall chatting, the four of them saw Tong Zhen, and hurriedly saluted, Tong Zhen was very happy today, walked to Tong Zhiyan, and said with relief: "I didn't let my father down!"
Tong Zhiyan said confidently: "I said I could."
Tong Zhen looked back at Meng Yuanzhou and said with a smile: "Yuanzhou is not bad!"
"Thank you, uncle, for the compliment!"
"Okay, you talk slowly, I'm going to tell your grandmother the news, don't leave for a while, and eat at home." Tong Zhen has always been smiling.
Meng Yuanzhou looked at Tong Zhen with a tangled expression, "Uncle, we made an appointment to go out for dinner, look ......?"
Tong Zhen also understood their thoughts, knowing that they had all grown up and had their own circle of friends, so he didn't refuse, "That's okay, you guys go!" Yan'er, take care of your sister, come back early in the evening, daddy is waiting to congratulate you! ”
Tong Zhiyan smiled and nodded.
After the four of them came out of Tong's mansion, Tong Zhiyan grabbed Meng Yuanzhou's shoulder with one hand and asked in disbelief: "You are fat enough!" Talking to my dad like that. ”
Meng Yuanzhou said innocently: "No! We've all made a special trip here, and we can't go home empty-handed! ”
"I won't bother with you this time." Tong Zhiyan knew that he was also kind, so he let him go.
Before coming, Meng Yuanzhou had already planned everything, so he directly rejected Tong Zhen's kindness, because the place had already been decided, and Meng Yuanzhou directly brought them over.
Looking at the unfamiliar place, the three of them were relieved, they were afraid that they would go to the place last time again, and if that happened happened to them, they would be embarrassed to death.
When they went, everything was ready, and there was a pot of wine on the table, Meng Xiaoyan glared at Meng Yuanzhou fiercely, knowing that he would not be so kind.
Meng Yuanzhou looked innocent, and hurriedly explained, "Today is special, it's okay to drink less, right!" Words. ”
Tong Zhiyan didn't listen carefully at all, and kept nodding his head.
Sitting at the table, Meng Yuanzhou brought everyone a small glass of wine, stood up, and said unhurriedly: "Today!" It's the day when Brother Zhiyan and I were selected for the temple examination, come, let's meet one. ”
Meng Xiaoyan muttered a fuss, then stood up and touched it and drank it in one gulp.
"Refreshing!" Meng Yuanzhou said arrogantly: "Come, Brother Zhiyan, let's go one."
Tong Zhiyan was also in a good mood, so he agreed directly, and the two drank one sip after another, and after a while, they felt that the two of them were a little floating.
Tong Zhinuo hurriedly blocked Meng Yuanzhou's movements and motioned for them to eat and drink again, Meng Yuanzhou didn't refuse and picked up the chopsticks and ate a few bites, Tong Zhiyan's brain was already in a trance, and his hand holding the chopsticks was shaking.
