Seven-year-old Niuniu and five-year-old Qianqian are now very good friends, the two little girls are inseparable all day long, Qianqian has to sleep with Niuniu's sister at night, Niuniu is reluctant, she wants to sleep with her mother at night, Zheng Shi's wife Li also refuses to let the two children sleep together, not to mention kicking and kicking when she falls asleep, Qianqian is full of energy when she has company, and she will make trouble until late to fall asleep, and the two children are difficult to wait-

During the day, the two little girls have to write a big character and learn to recognize ten new words, and the rest of the time is either to listen to the story of their great-mother Zhou, or to listen to the humble grandmother Lu to tell the ancients, or to help the humble mother shake the spinning wheel, water the flowers and plants, do some simple housework, and then play in the back garden, there are craftsmen in the garden to build a pavilion, busy and lively, the two newly transplanted locust trees in the northeast corner make the two little girls very happy, the noon sun is fierce, they stay in the back garden under the shade of the acacia to blow the mud whistle, jump the lattice to play, It's a very simple game, but the two little girls never get tired of playing and have a lot of fun, and they can play for an afternoon and an afternoon.

At dusk, Niuniu has to play a game of "waiting for my brother", that is, to look at the boats on the high shore of the small pier at the foot of Longtou Mountain, if there is a boat moored on the shore, Niuniu will be engrossed in staring, watching the people in the boat go ashore, and every time she has to see the sun before going home.

Qianqian rode a bamboo horse and followed Niuniu to the dock to play the game of "waiting for my brother" twice, and I felt bored, if I just watched the river and the boat for a while, it was okay, but Niuniu had to watch it for a long time, and I wanted to see that it was dark, but since Sister Niuniu likes to play this game, then Qianqian has to accompany her, Qianqian knows a lot of things Niuniu's sister has let her, this time she let Niuniu's sister, this is what her mother Li said to her, you can't be domineering, you have to be humble, otherwise how can your father name you Qianqian.

Playing the game of "waiting for my brother" with the two little girls is also the old servant of the Zheng family, Fugui, the old man behind the ear is very patient, and he does not urge Niuniu to go home, and when he meets an acquaintance, he smiles and greets people, and if he has no acquaintance, he laughs and guards the two little girls, shaking a fan to repel gnats for the two little girls-

Zheng Shi once said to Niuniu: "Niuniu, your brother will not come from the river when he comes back from Yuanzhou, we are on the south bank of the Xinjiang River, and the place where your brother went is also in the south, so you don't need to cross the river, but by land, I don't know where he came from." ”

Niuniu listened "mm-hmm", but as soon as the sun set, she couldn't help but play the game of "waiting for her brother", although her mother Zhou rarely talked about when her brother would come back in front of her, but Niuniu knew that her mother was very concerned about her brother, and she also missed her brother, and her brother was always uneasy when he didn't come back, as if his heart was empty, not steady, although the Qianqian family was very good to her and her mother, but she still longed for her brother to come back quickly.

On June 23, Zheng Shi came back from the Guixi County School to participate in the quarterly examination, he inquired about the news of the Yuanzhou Mansion Examination, someone copied the list, there was no name of Zeng Yu on the list, and there were rumors that the Yuanzhou Academy had a major fraud case, and four people were deposed during the re-examination, it is said that this fraud case was also implicated in the Guangxin Mansion Examination in April, and the 42 new students of Guangxin Mansion will re-examine and grind, and there were rumors for a while-

Zheng Shi is not worried about the re-examination and grinding survey, only worried about the results of Zeng Yu's make-up examination, the Yuanzhou Academy examination is completed on the second day of the first month of June, and the case will be released for about ten days, regardless of whether he is selected or not, Zeng Yu will return to Yingtan at the end of this month, so he did not tell Zeng Yu's mother Zhou the news he heard, so as not to worry Zhou.

At dusk on the 25th, when the time came, it was time to play the game of "waiting for my brother", Qianqian found the thin bamboo pole and straddled it, first "drove" twice, to see if the horse could run, and then said to Niuniu: "Sister Niuniu, let's go, wait for my brother to go." ”

Zheng Shi laughed when he heard it, and said, "What wait for brother, that's Uncle Jiuli." ”

Qianqian said: "Just waiting for my brother, Sister Niuniu, do you say?" ”

The two girls went out again, Fugui followed behind with a pu fan, Niuniu was always excited every time she went out, as if her brother Zeng Yu's boat had arrived at the dock, she didn't go, her brother didn't go ashore, just waiting for her to pick it up, so she had to leave quickly-

An old man and two children had just walked to the corner of the street, when they suddenly heard someone shouting from a distance: "Niu Niu." ”

Niuniu's whole body was shocked, and her heart was about to explode with joy, and she turned around and shouted, "Brother, brother." "It's my brother's voice, my brother is back, although I haven't seen where my brother is?

Zeng Yu strode with a fifty-pound book, and he was very tired after a day's journey, but when he saw the figure of the little girl Niuniu at the corner of the street, he was in a steep spirit, and the soles of his feet were windy, Niuniu also saw him, and ran over with joy, followed by the daughter of the three idiot brothers, Qianqian, who struggled to chase across the bamboo horse at first, and then saw that he couldn't catch up with Niuniu, and threw the bamboo pole in his hand, and ran away-

Qianqian ran to the front, and saw that Niuniu had been picked up by Zeng Yu, she also jumped on her feet to hug her, poor Zeng Yu was carrying a big bookbook and holding two little girls, and she couldn't walk before she reached the street, Fugui came over to help him unload the book, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Laifu-"

Laifu rushed over in response, put the book on his back, carried the heavy burden of Sixi in his hand, and said with a smile: "Sixi, you have tanned a lot, and Young Master Zeng is also dark." ”

Zheng Shi rushed over and asked from afar: "Jiu Li, how is the make-up exam?" "I'm in a hurry.

Sixi took off his burden and relaxed, and said loudly: "Young Master Zheng, my young master has been hit, and he is still riding a horse and arranging flowers in Yuanzhou." ”

Zheng Shi smiled, walked over quickly and hugged Qian Qian from Zeng Yu's arms, looked at Zeng Yu, and said: "Jiu Li, it's hard work, but it's worth it, so as not to wait for three years, Ha Luha." ”

Great-mother Zhou also walked to the door, and saw her son Zeng Yu holding Niuniu talking and laughing, although he was tanned a lot, but his spirit was very good, and his heart was full of joy, and he called: "Yu'er——"

Zeng Yu put down Niuniu, ran over, and knelt down to his mother in front of the door and said, "Mother, my son is back." "Tears of joy could not be stopped.

Great-mother Zhou couldn't find a face towel for a while, so she wiped her son's tears with her sleeve, pulled up her son, looked at it carefully, and said in her mouth: "Okay, it's good to come back, I'm tired." "I forgot about my son's make-up exam that I have been thinking about these days, as long as my son comes back.

Zeng Yu kowtowed to Zheng's mother Lu Shi, and said that after a conversation, Zheng Shi had already asked Fugui to buy wine and food, he wanted to have two drinks with Zeng Yu, happy, and even happier, that is, after hearing Zeng Yu talk about the causes and consequences of the Yuanzhou fraud case, Zheng Shi laughed and said: "The rumors are true, there are really three people who bought it for money in this Guangxin Mansion Examination, which three people are it?" ”

Zeng Yu said: "Xu Zetong and Zhu Feng - do the three idiot brothers recognize these two people?" ”

Zheng Shi said: "I don't remember seeing you in a hurry when I was in Panpan, Xu Zetong seems to be from Shangrao County, Zhu Feng has no impression, who else is it?" ”

Zeng Yu smiled: "Jiang Yuanrui." ”

Zheng Shi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Wonderful, wonderful, this is called Skynet's restoration without loss, Jiang Yuanrui's original form is revealed." Asked, "What should the Grandmaster do?" ”

Zeng Yu said: "The four fraudsters in Yuanzhou Mansion were deposed on the spot, and the three subjects will not be allowed to take the exam in the future, and it is not clear how to deal with other prefectures and counties." ”

Zheng Shi said: "I must strip off my shirt and lose my fame, Ha Luha, Jiang Yuanrui was beaten by you last time, and he must have sued you to the county government, just waiting for you to go back to arrest you. ”
