Ling went to comfort Liu a few words, but she was absent-minded and couldn't keep her soul, no matter what Ling said, she didn't care. Looking at her like this, Ling Shi also felt that it was not a taste, anyway, she did what she could, just like Shaohua said, but she couldn't pass the exam. Every time there are more people who can't pass the spring exam, if everyone is so drunk and sad, then a lot of people will have to die of discomfort.

So after a few words of persuasion, seeing that Liu still didn't reply, Ling had no choice but to leave stupidly.

Within a few days, they heard that Li Sinian had sent Si Yan to Pingshan Academy, and by the time they knew the news, they had already been sent away. The Ling clan also complained that he didn't hear them mention it when he went to Xuyuan, and left without saying a word, and he was in such a hurry.

When Wanhua heard this, she was taken aback, "Isn't there a gentleman at home?" Why do you have to send it to the academy? Although Si Yan is still not very old, even if he goes for three years, he has not yet reached the championship.

"I probably feel pampered at home, and I don't want to learn." Shaohua didn't think so.

Anyway, if Si Yan, a young master who is used to living a good life, is not at home, the Li family's monthly expenses can save a lot. Previously, for Si Yan's exam, Liu paid a lot of money from the account room, but when Ling was away, Ling almost didn't get in a hurry with Liu.

"I heard that this Pingshan Academy is very hard, and it is a place where some ordinary people who have no money at home go to Lang Jun. I don't know what the eldest brother thinks, where did he let Shiro run, Mr. Liu is probably going to mumble. Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I've heard a lot of lace, and Wanhua doesn't think Si Yan can tolerate that kind of environment.

"Pure hardship also has the benefit of pure hardship, so that you can do a good job in learning without distractions." Shaohua replied seriously.

Now that her hands are tightly wrapped, she can't do anything, and she originally wanted to borrow some books from Wanhua to read, but when she saw her shelves full of subsets of scriptures and histories, she suddenly felt dizzy.

"The third lady doesn't have to worry too much, I heard that the gentleman of Pingshan Academy is also the protégé of the old lady, and he is still the same year as the eldest young master, so he will take care of some of them." Hanzhang brought a few pieces of brightly colored cloth to show Wanhua, and Wanhua shook his head, "Changed, this color is too dazzling." Hanzhang nodded, and went to rummage through other fabrics.

Shaohua curiously followed Hanzhang's figure away, but said, "So young? ”

"It's not young! It's more than forty. Wanhua picked the needle and thread in his hand, "I heard that he was admitted to the Jinshi in his early years." The first time I didn't do well in the exam, I ran home to study again, and the second time I was admitted, but it was the end of the top three. At that time, an official happened to order him to go to an unknown small place to become a county magistrate or something, but he refused, saying that he would continue to go home to study, and vowed to be admitted to the top prize. But when no one paid any attention to him, he came to worship at the door and begged his grandfather to take him as a student. My grandfather disagreed, so he learned to stand at the door, but before the snow had fallen, he fell ill. ”

"Hahaha, how funny is this person!" Shaohua couldn't help laughing, she thought that a Liu Baichuan was weird enough, but she didn't expect that there were people outside the people, and there were mountains outside the mountains.

"There's more to it than that!" Wanhua looked at the other stack of fabrics that Hanzhang carried, picked a few light and pastel colors, and let Hanzhang take the others back. "My grandfather saw that he was so sick that he couldn't even speak, and he was afraid that people would talk about Li Jiacao's disregard for human life, so he had to take him home for treatment. Who would have thought that he would refuse to leave as soon as he got well, and he would chop wood and water flowers at home every day, and he would not leave no matter how he was picked. ”

"And then? Why did I go to Pingshan Academy again? This is what Shaohua is most curious about.

Later, my grandfather thought that his character was good, but his brain was too straight and stubborn. Seeing that he had a desire to learn, he introduced him to Pingshan Academy, which was still an inconspicuous small academy at that time, but the gentleman who taught there was very good knowledge, but he had a bad temperament and a bad temper, so many people did not go. In the end, the gentleman looked at his grandfather's face and accepted the student, who knew that it was strange or not, and the two weirdos became a pair of good masters and apprentices. After that, every time he came to the exam, he failed to pass the first class every time, and the best ranking is said to be the second grade. However, that year, our family accounted for two, which made him lose for a long time. ”

"Every time I finish the exam, until the list is released, I will live in the small inn opposite the door of Baichuan Pavilion. If he doesn't get the first grade, he will run back to continue teaching and wait for the next spring. Wanhua looked at Hanzhang packing things, thought about it, and picked out a pair of shrimp bracelets and a white magnolia hairpin from the jewelry box.

Shaohua was so surprised that he couldn't keep his mouth shut, but he didn't expect that there would be such a strange person who gave up after taking such a good ranking.

Could it be that the title of champion is so important to him?

"Just to get a top prize?" Shaohua was shocked for a long time before he said a word.

"Who knows, anyway, he comes to the exam every time, and he will go back to teaching after the exam." Wanhua listened to Hanzhang count all the items, and then nodded. Seeing that Shaohua's eyes never left, he explained: "I heard that the book is too much to give birth in two months, I am afraid that there will be many people by then, so let Hanzhang send something over to congratulate him first, and by the way, he should be in a hurry." ”

Shaohua looked at Wanhua with some envy, "The third sister is really like an adult." ”

Wanhua said with a smile: "I'm sixteen years old this year, am I still a child's temper like you?" ”

Shaohua sneered on her face, she used to have twenty-eight years, but she was still as presumptuous as a little boy, so when she was seventeen years old, she hurriedly invited Mama Rong back to teach. However, I couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and during that time, I didn't make Mama Rong angry.

Wanhua looked at her sister with her hands on her head, tilting her head, very cute, and was about to say, when she heard Hanzhang report, "Third lady, the young lady is here." She was stunned for a moment, and her expression quickly sank, "Just say I'm not there." ”

Hanzhang opened his mouth with a somewhat surprised expression, Xin Zixuan had already walked in. Shaohua secretly glanced at Wanhua, and seeing that she was indifferent, he immediately jumped down to greet Xin Zixuan. Seeing Wanhua's gloomy expression, he ignored it and turned to Shaohua. "Your sisters are talking, don't bother. I just went to your house, and Hatsuho said you ran over, so I'll come and take a look. ”

"Sister-in-law, it's really unfortunate, I'm about to go to my aunt's side." Wanhua put down the needle and thread in his hand and got up to drive people.

Seeing Xin Zixuan's expression stiffen for a moment, Shaohua ran over, took her arm, and said to her, "Otherwise, sister-in-law will go to my house to talk, let's not disturb the third sister." ”

Wanhua didn't expect Shaohua to mutiny, her eyes widened in anger, Xin Zixuan lowered her head and smiled softly at Shaohua. "It's fine."

"Third sister, then let's go over first." Shaohua dragged Xin Zixuan's hand and quickly walked out of Wanhua's courtyard. "Sister-in-law, don't care, just now the third sister was teaching the people in the house, and she was upset."

Xin Zixuan didn't care, "It's okay, Sanniang is already very good to me." Shaohua tilted his head, his round eyes blinked twice, "Many young daughters-in-law envy me for having such a good temper sister-in-law." ”

It's just a good-tempered look from the outside.

Shaohua didn't expose Xin Zixuan's lies, but since the Ling family and the Liu family fell out, Wanhua was somewhat taboo to get too close to Xin Zixuan, and always thought that she was robbing the Ling family for the Liu family.

"Is there anything wrong with my sister-in-law?" The two sisters-in-law walked all the way, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

"I've got medicine for you." Xin Zixuan stopped, took out a small white porcelain bottle from her sleeve, and handed it to Shaohua.

Shaohua took his hand, opened the bottle cap and smelled it, there was a strong smell of medicine, he couldn't help frowning, and hurriedly said: "It's good that my hands are good, but it's just a little exaggerated, in fact, it's already fine." Pretending to be pitiful, the Ling family will be more tolerant of her. Shaohua has to say that Ling is a person with a very good memory, especially in terms of holding grudges, just saying it or not, showing it or not showing it.

"I didn't wipe your hands, I could have seen that your hands were fine. Is it really that a person with such a serious injury will run around with gauze all day long? Xin Zixuan hit the nail on the head to expose Shaohua's lie, it was someone who piggybacked on you to treat your allergies. By the way, I didn't know you were allergic to flowers. ”

Shaohua was embarrassed to explain the situation to Xin Zixuan at that time, and looked at the porcelain vase left and right, "Who brought it to me?" "I didn't expect the news of her pollen allergy to spread so quickly, no wonder Ling didn't give her a good look recently.

"People from Xingyongbo's house." Xin Zixuan's words made Shaohua almost bite his tongue.

"How could he, no, didn't he go out?" How did this news reach Yan Kaizhi's ears.

"I don't know this, do you know him well?" Xin Zixuan looked at Shaohua's side face.

Shaohua looked at her gaze, and pretended to say calmly: "It's not very familiar, it's just that there are several faces." ”

"A few sides can make him run so far and deliver medicine to you?" Xin Zixuan expressed disbelief.

Shaohua listened to the words, and couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, although how could this matter reach Yan Kaizhi's ears. However, instead of hiding, he gave her medicine, which was enough to make her run around Biwuxuan three times excitedly. However, because he was afraid of scaring Xin Zixuan, he continued to maintain his apparent calmness: "Probably, it's because we saved him last time." Yan Kaizhi is a very affectionate person! ”

"Eh, you are the same as Mo'er, when you mention him, you only have a good mouth." Xin Zixuan suddenly laughed.

Shaohua heard her compare herself with Xin Zimo again, thinking that she had been found something. Turning his head, he looked at Xin Zixuan's face, and his delicate and small ears were connected to his jaw, just forming a gentle outline. Under the long and thick eyelashes, there are a pair of eyes as amber as Xin Zimo, but at this moment, they look extremely sad.

Shaohua was stunned and didn't know how to comfort her, and suddenly asked, "Why did my sister-in-law come alone." ”

After walking for so long, Shaohua realized that Xin Zixuan actually came alone. was asked by Shaohua, and suddenly his eyes turned red, and it seemed that a thousand words wanted to pour down with tears. Only then did she carefully discover that Xin Zixuan was much haggard than before, and there was a circle of darkness under her eyelids.

"What's wrong with my sister-in-law, don't scare me, who bullied you? Is it the big brother? Shaohua asked nervously, but saw Xin Zixuan biting her lip, shaking her head and not speaking.
