Chapter 228: Returning Home
Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng looked in the direction of his finger, and saw that Zheng Yi was alone at a table, eating hot pot all over his head.
The two walked over, Cai Xiaoxiao bent her fingers and knocked on the tabletop, attracting the attention of someone who was full of food, and she said, "You, eat hot pot here early in the morning." ”
Zheng Yi looked up and saw that it was the two of them, first he took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth with a nonchalant smile, and then said with a smile: "I also said that I went to look for the two of you last night, but I found that you two were not in the store." ”
Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng sat down opposite him, and Zhao Kangcheng said, "We chatted with our teacher for a while at Aoki Academy yesterday, so we are not in the store. ”
"Teacher?" Zheng Yi looked at Zhao Kangcheng suspiciously.
"My teacher." Zhao Kangcheng explained.
Zheng Yi nodded, indicating that he understood: "A talented teacher who can teach Brother must be a respected senior." ”
Zhao Kangcheng smiled, shook his head, and said, "Teacher, he's just an ordinary college dean. "It's not respectable.
Zheng Yi raised his eyebrows: "Brother, are you turning around and boasting about your talent?" "Since the teacher is not a respected teacher, it means that the student is talented.
Without waiting for Zhao Kangcheng to respond, Cai Xiaoxiao took care of it first, learned Zheng Yi to raise his eyebrows, and said: "You don't grasp the words, you know that your brother doesn't mean that." "He's just stating the facts.
Zheng Yi smiled and said, "Aren't I joking, I was wrong, brother, I'll make amends to you." As he spoke, he raised his glass and gestured to Zhao Kangcheng, and then drank it all in one gulp.
Zhao Kangcheng frowned slightly, and said with disapproval: "Drinking in the morning? ”
Zheng Yi waved his hand and said, "It's okay, just have a few drinks." ”
Cai Xiaoxiao saw Zheng Yi's joyful eating, and she was also a little greedy, so she asked Zhang Mu to bring her a pair of chopsticks, and asked Zheng Yi: "Speaking of which, when you went home yesterday, did your mother say that you were gone?" ”
"Say what am I going to do?" Zheng Yi was puzzled.
"You gave up the exam." Cai Xiaoxiao looked at him with wide eyes. She didn't know that Zheng Yi didn't tell her family about it.
Zheng Yi understood, and he explained: "I didn't tell them that I gave up the exam. All I said was that I fell off the list. ”
At this time, Zhang Mu had already walked over with the dishes and chopsticks that Cai Xiaoxiao wanted and put them in front of Cai Xiaoxiao.
Cai Xiaoxiao thanked him, then picked up the chopsticks and first grabbed a meatball, and then said, "Then they didn't say you either?" After speaking, he asked Zhao Kangcheng next to him softly if he wanted to take a bite.
Zhao Kangcheng shook his head, and by the way, he told Cai Xiaoxiao to eat less, after all, she had just finished breakfast not long ago.
Cai Xiaoxiao nodded and said that she knew.
Zheng Yi looked at the interaction between the two of them and said: "What is there to say, they are already very happy to learn that I took the seventeenth place in the exam, as for the palace exam, it depends on personal creation, in their opinion, it is normal for me to fall off the list." ”
Cai Xiaoxiao didn't answer, she was eating happily.
Zheng Yi said again: "By the way, my grandfather said, let me invite you to the house another day." ”
"Guest?" Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng looked at him.
Zheng Yi explained: "My grandfather thinks that you two have taken care of me for a long time. In order to express my gratitude, I want to invite the two of you to the house as guests, and by the way, take a look at what the new champion looks like. He looked at Zhao Kangcheng with a somewhat mocking smile.
Hearing this, Cai Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, take care of it for a long time, hahaha......"
Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi looked at Cai Xiaoxiao puzzled, not understanding where her laughter was, Zheng Yi couldn't help but ask, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Cai Xiaoxiao waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's nothing, since your grandfather said so, then it's up to you to set the time, but today is definitely not possible, we have to go back to the village later." ”
"Then in three days, then you will bring your mother with you." Zheng Yi simply set the time.
Zhao Kangcheng nodded: "Okay." ”
After that, the three of them chatted a few more words, and it was not until Cai Xiaosnack's stomach was about the same that they put down their chopsticks and said to Zhao Kangcheng: "Xianggong, let's go." ”
Zhao Kangcheng nodded, said to Zheng Yi, "You eat slowly" and then left the store with Cai Xiaoxiao, and before leaving, both of them said hello to Zhang Mu and Li Yuan.
Zhang Mu and Li Yuan both came out to see the two, and when they saw the officers and soldiers who followed, both of them smiled slightly.
Because Zhang Guangzhong didn't know where Zhao Kangcheng and their home were, Zhao Kangcheng sat at the door of the carriage and guided the direction through a curtain.
After more than an hour, they finally came to the entrance of Zhao Village, looking out of the car window, looking at the familiar scenery outside, Cai Xiaoxiao smiled and said to Zhao Kangcheng: "Xianggong, we are back." ”
Zhao Kangcheng nodded his head.
As for their appearance, the people in the village were all confused, looking at the carriage and the officers and soldiers behind the carriage, they thought: Which big man has come to their village?
Seeing the carriage heading straight to the back of the village, some people speculated: "Isn't there an adult who has taken a fancy to the back mountain and wants to buy it?" ”
The villagers didn't know, so although they were a little afraid of the officers and soldiers with knives, because of curiosity, they couldn't help but follow behind, wanting to see what these people were here for.
Then I saw that the carriage finally stopped in front of the Zhao family's house, and then saw that the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and then out of it came out of the handsome man, the man The villagers were still very familiar, and some people shouted in surprise: "It's Kangcheng!" ”
Zhao Kangcheng stepped out of the carriage, and then Cai Xiaoxiao also walked out of the carriage and took Zhao Kangcheng's outstretched hand and stepped out of the carriage.
When the villagers saw Cai Xiaoxiao, they shouted again: "There is also Kangcheng and his daughter-in-law!" They're back! ”
Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng looked at the familiar villagers around them and smiled, Cai Xiaoxiao greeted everyone and shouted, "Everyone, we are back." ”
For Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng's return, the villagers were surprised and delighted, they all knew that Zhao Kangcheng and his wife went to the capital to catch the exam, but after such a long time, there was no news back, and everyone was speculating whether Zhao Kangcheng had failed the imperial examination again? Who would have thought that they would actually come back with a group of officers and soldiers!
Looking at the officers and soldiers standing majestically on the side with a serious face, everyone knows that Zhao Kangcheng's imperial examination must be high school this time!
However, someone still couldn't help asking: "Kangcheng, are you the champion!" ”
Zhao Kangcheng smiled and nodded.
When the villagers saw him nodding, they were even more jubilant: I didn't expect Zhao Kangcheng to really win the champion, and they Zhao Village had a champion! How did such happy news make the villagers unhappy?
