Chapter 169: Ridiculous
After Sun Lulu left, Cai Xiaoxiao returned to the courtyard to find Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi, and the two were sitting in the courtyard reading a book. Although Zheng Yi didn't care much about whether he would be on the list, he couldn't help but pick up the book to review at the juncture, according to him, because even if he didn't make the list, he didn't want to lose too badly.
In this regard, Cai Xiaoxiao couldn't help but complain in her heart: Isn't it a miserable loss to be on the list?
When Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi saw her coming back, Zhao Kangcheng asked, "She is already gone?" ”
Cai Xiaoxiao nodded: "Yes." Then he sat down next to him and asked them, "Did you know that this year's invigilator was replaced by Zuo Xiang?" ”
"Left Phase?" Zhao Kangcheng looked at her, "Sun Lulu told you?" ”
"Well, she just told me." Cai Xiaoxiao said.
"I know that." Zheng Yi said, he put down the book, "Actually, the news has spread all over the place." ”
"Why don't you tell us?" Cai Xiaoxiao glared at him and said.
"Because I don't think it's very important." Zheng Yi said with an innocent face, "I think no matter who the invigilator is, Brother Zhao can be named on the gold list anyway, and that's it." ”
No, this one is important! Cai Xiaoxiao silently held his forehead and said in his heart.
But Zheng Yi is not to blame, he doesn't know Zhao Kangcheng's previous experience.
Wait a minute! Previous experience? Cai Xiaoxiao suddenly thought of something, she narrowed her eyes and asked Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi: "What do you think, Sun Lulu suddenly told me who the invigilator was, what was her purpose?" ”
"What's the point?" Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi looked at her with a confused expression, obviously not understanding what Cai Xiaoxiao wanted to say.
Cai Xiaoxiao opened her mouth, and wanted to tell them the speculation that had flashed in her heart, but suddenly thought that this involved Zhao Kangcheng's previous experience, and she should have "not known".
So she had to swallow her inner guess, smiled perfunctorily, and said, "It's nothing, maybe I'm thinking too much." ”
Zheng Yi and Zhao Kangcheng did not doubt it, Zheng Yi said: "I think my sister-in-law seems to be too wary of that Sun Lulu." ”
Cai Xiaoxiao was noncommittal, shrugged her shoulders, and said, "It's always good to be more vigilant, you guys continue to read, I'll go prepare lunch." With that, he got up and walked towards the kitchen.
When he came to the kitchen, Cai Xiaoxiao first washed the rice, then lit the inner pot of the stove, then put the rice in, poured in water, covered the pot, and then began to prepare the dishes.
In the busy process, Cai Xiaoxiao has been thinking about Sun Lulu, I don't know why, she always feels that when Sun Lulu suddenly mentioned to her for no reason that the invigilator was her father, it seemed to have another meaning.
Maybe Sun Lulu was just a kind reminder, but Cai Xiaoxiao thought of Zhao Kangcheng's failure to be the top student in high school because of the suppression of the prince and the princess, and inexplicably felt that Sun Lulu's behavior was a little unsimple.
Cai Xiaoxiao thought, since Sun Lulu can find out their details, maybe she can even investigate Zhao Kangcheng's past clearly, so she deliberately told her that she was telling her that she didn't have to worry about this year's imperial examination?
If this is the case, then Sun Lulu is really kind, maybe when Zhao Kangcheng is really named on the gold list, she will really have to thank her.
But is it really that simple? Cai Xiaoxiao stopped what he was doing, and looked at the minced meat on the cutting board with a somewhat dull gaze.
"What are you thinking?" Suddenly, Zhao Kangcheng's voice sounded behind her, Cai Xiaoxiao came back to her senses, looked back, and asked, "Why did you come in?" ”
"I'll help you." Zhao Kangcheng said.
Cai Xiaoxiao immediately shook his head and refused: "No need, there are still two days to take the exam, you better hurry up and review." ”
"I don't care, what should be remembered, what should be understood, it's almost there." Zhao Kangcheng said calmly, and his eyes flashed with confidence.
That light confused Cai Xiaoxiao's eyes for a while, and she couldn't help laughing: "I know that Xianggong is confident, but it's not wrong to prepare more, and I don't need your help here, go out quickly." He waved his hand as he spoke.
Seeing that Cai Xiaoxiao insisted on not needing his help, Zhao Kangcheng pursed his lips and asked again, "What were you thinking just now?" When he first came in, he saw Cai Xiaoxiao in a trance, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Oh, I'm thinking about what I'm going to do in two days for you to bring in that you can fill your stomach without getting tired." Although Cai Xiaoxiao is lying, this is indeed what she has to think about.
Zhao Kangcheng intuitively felt that Cai Xiaoxiao didn't tell the whole truth, but he still didn't ask any more, only said: "You can do anything, as long as you do it." ”
"That's not okay, this can't be casual!" Cai Xiaoxiao shook her head, with a serious face, "You have to be in it for three days, what if you don't eat well?" What should I do if I have a bad stomach? So you still have to be well prepared. ”
"Just bring some dry food." Zhao Kangcheng proposed.
Cai Xiaoxiao said: "Dry food is for sure. "After all, dry food is the easiest to preserve," but dry food can also be prepared in different kinds. ”
"Different kinds?" Zhao Kangcheng looked at Cai Xiaoxiao with a confused expression, thinking to himself, isn't the dry food just steamed buns and flatbreads or something? What else could there be?
Cai Xiaoxiao didn't say much, waved his hand to signal that Zhao Kangcheng could go out, and turned around to continue preparing lunch.
Helpless, Zhao Kangcheng had no choice but to turn around and return to the courtyard.
When Zheng Yi saw him coming back, he smiled and said, "Look, Brother Zhao, did I guess right?" At this critical juncture, my sister-in-law is definitely reluctant to keep you busy. ”
Zhao Kangcheng glanced at him and didn't speak.
On the other side, Sun Lulu got into her carriage and prepared to go home. In the carriage, she recalled that she had been raising a smile every day to please Cai Xiaoxiao in the past few days, and her figure had been lowered, but even so, she could still feel Cai Xiaoxiao's wariness and vigilance against her!
Sun Lulu's left hand on her left knee was silently clenched into a fist, thinking: It's just a rural village woman, but she is so vigilant! She ran back and forth so many times, but she couldn't get one step closer to the target! It really annoyed her! Generally speaking, if a man as noble as her is willing to be friends with her, a country woman, shouldn't she be grateful, and constantly humble herself to please her?
Sun Lulu couldn't understand Cai Xiaoxiao, she always felt that under Cai Xiaoxiao's eyes, she seemed to be able to see through the true intentions hidden by her in whatever she did.
Sun Lulu couldn't help but raise her lips and smiled sarcastically, she laughed at herself for being a left-handed daughter, and she actually had no way to take a rural village woman! It's ridiculous!
