Chapter 146: Tomb Sweeping

Zhou Kuiruo didn't wake up until noon the next day, because she slept for too long, Aunt Zhou was very worried, and looked back and forth three times.

"Chun Tao, why don't you say Kui'er is still awake?"

"Mother, don't worry too much, Xianggong is just too tired and needs to sleep a little longer." Chun Tao saw that Aunt Zhou was really anxious, so she had to put down what she was doing to comfort her.

"But it's been too long! It's already noon. I've slept for nine hours since I slept yesterday and now, who would sleep for so long! Do you think something will happen? Aunt Zhou's anxious crying came out.

Zhou Kuiruo stayed up all night before the exam, and yesterday's exam consumed so much energy, and it was difficult to nourish his spirit if he didn't sleep for so long. These spring peaches can be figured out, but Aunt Zhou is difficult to understand. "In this way, let's wait a little longer, if Xianggong hasn't woken up yet, I'll call Dr. Yang, okay?"

Aunt Zhou looked at Chun Tao, a little dissatisfied, but did not have a seizure, turned her head, shook off Chun Tao's hand, and began to walk around the door again.

Regarding Aunt Zhou's dissatisfaction, Chun Tao could only comfort herself, it was Aunt Zhou who was too anxious and in a bad mood to be like this.

Aunt Zhou walked outside the door for a while before the door was opened. "Quill! You're finally awake. ”

Zhou Kuiruo was hugged before he could see the figure clearly, and seeing that Aunt Zhou in his arms was emotional, he had to pat her back to comfort her. "It's okay, mother, I'm fine. Look, didn't I wake up? ”

"Let my mother see, is there anything uncomfortable? Mother is really worried! You've been like this since you were a kid, I thought... I thought..."

Aunt Zhou held Zhou Kuiruo's face, and tears fell down. "Okay, mother, I'm fine, I'm covered in a lot. It's really okay, don't worry! ”

Chun Tao stood in place and looked at Zhou Kuiruo, smiled slightly after meeting his eyes, and turned to leave.

Zhou Kuiruo retracted her gaze and looked at Aunt Zhou for a long time of comfort, and she stopped her tears. "You must be hungry after sleeping for so long, right? Mother will get you something to eat. ”

"No, you can rest first! Chun Tao has gone. ”

Aunt Zhou turned around and saw that Chun Tao was no longer behind her. "This child, you have slept for so long, she is not in a hurry at all. I thought she didn't have you in her heart! ”

If Chun Tao really didn't care about it before, but now Zhou Kuiruo believes that she must be worried about herself. "Mother, it's not that she's not in a hurry, she just didn't show it. If she is also anxious, and you are also anxious, this family will be in chaos. ”

Aunt Zhou slapped him lightly, "I know that I am protecting my mother, and my mother knows that Chun Tao is hard, but if she doesn't say anything, she will inevitably be misunderstood." You tell me, she doesn't say, how do I know? ”

"She's always been like this, why are you worried about this all of a sudden?"

"I'm not afraid! You said that there will be more people in the family in the future, and she is still like this, how can she not be wronged? ”

"Mother, I'm temporary... There are no plans for this at the moment. ”

"I know, I'll just say it casually."

Chun Tao had already walked out of the stove room with her meal. "Okay, Chun Tao is out, let's go to the hall and sit and eat!"

Zhou Kuiruo sat in the hall to eat, Aunt Zhou sat on the side and watched him, and Chun Tao went back to the room by herself, leaving the hall to the mother and son.

"You're done eating?" Hearing the sound of the door opening, Chun Tao looked up and saw Zhou Kuiruo.

"Hmmm! What are you doing here? ”

"Count the money, no one in the family makes money, and they live on some dividends every month, how can they do it if they don't make careful calculations?"

"Isn't the business of the Prayer House good? Dividends should be quite a lot every month, right? ”

Chun Tao raised her eyes and glared at him, then lowered her head and continued to count. "Doesn't the four of you have to eat? Don't you need money for the food expenses of thick ink and Danqing? Do you need to pay for the repair of doors and windows at home? Do you use money for pen and paper? Also, where do you think the money in your purse comes from? ”

"Cough~" Chun Tao spoke very slowly, and the words were clear, the more so. Zhou Kuiruo became more and more embarrassed, and until she finished speaking, Zhou Kuiruo's face was already flushed.

It's really not a good home, I don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. Zhou Kuiruo didn't speak, Chun Tao ignored him, and settled his own accounts.

"I'm sorry, but I thought it was too easy." Zhou Kuiruo walked behind Chun Tao and gently rubbed her shoulder.

Chun Tao was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but Zhou Kuiruo's technique was not bad, and she slowly accepted it. "You're not tired?"

"I was really tired the moment I finished the exam, but I didn't feel it when I got up from sleep."

"That's good."

Zhou Kuiruo thought about it for a while, but decided to mention the spring peach. "If you have anything in the future, tell your mother more."

Chun Tao turned her head and looked at him puzzled. "What's wrong?"

"You've always been like this, don't say anything, aren't you afraid of being misunderstood?"

Chun Tao blinked her eyes slightly, turned her head, and picked up the pen again, but after picking up the pen, she didn't put down the pen for a long time, and the ink dripped on the paper.

Zhou Kuiruo saw her lost consciousness and snatched her pen. "What are you thinking?"

I didn't know anyone since I was a child, so how do I know how not to be misunderstood, and why to be misunderstood! "Nothing." Chun Tao took the pen and continued to write.

Zhou Kuiruo stared at her behind him, not knowing what to say.

"You're going to keep an eye on me here?"

"The county exam has already been examined, and now we are waiting for the case to be discovered. I'm fine now, and it's good to keep an eye on you. ”

Chun Tao couldn't accept such a hot gaze, so she had to try to get him away instead. "If the county has tried, what else will I test?"

"If the county has tried, there will be a government test." Zhou Kuiruo paused for a moment, and then asked, "Do you really want me to be an official?" ”

"I don't want you to be an official, I just want you to take a test for your fame, so it's good."

"If you want to get the fame of Xiucai, one is to take the first place in the county test, call the county case, and get the fame of Xiucai. The second is to pass the government examination and obtain the qualification for the hospital examination. ”

"Then you mean that if you don't get the first place in the county exam, you have to take the government exam again?"

"Yes!"

"When will the Nafu test start?"

"Around April, the specific time will wait for the prefect to issue it."

"That's only two months, can you prepare?"

"I'll do my best, and you'll be relieved."

"Hmmm! But you can rest for a day or two before you start! ”

"I know, are you done? When you're done, go out for a walk with me! ”

"Where to go?"

"Go to the bamboo forest and see that person."

Chun Tao put down the pen, "I remember that there was still some wine left over from the previous sacrifice, I'll go take a look and prepare something else." ”

"Okay! There you go! ”

After Chun Tao prepared things in the stove room, she was led by Zhou Kuiruo with a basket and walked to the only grave in the bamboo forest.

Zhou Kuiruo poured wine, and spring peaches set up vegetables. Zhou Kuiruo poured the wine on the ground and didn't say a word, while Chun Tao was squatting and burning paper money, and he didn't know what to say, so the two of them stood dryly, looking at the grave of the long grass.

The two stood awkwardly for a while, and Zhou Kuiruo said, "Or, pull the weeds for him!" ”

"Good!" After the two of them finished pulling the weeds, they fell silent again, not knowing what to do.

Chun Tao didn't sweep the tomb and didn't know what to do next. I had to ask Zhou Kuiruo next to him, "This should be fine!" ”

"Alright, let's go!"

Zhou Kuiruo took Chun Tao by the hand, chatted about trivial matters at home, and walked back slowly through the bamboo forest.

"Quier, are you alright?" Zhou Kuiruo was changing clothes in the house when he heard Aunt Zhou's anxious call outside.

"Alright." Chun Tao opened the door, and Zhou Kuiruo slowly walked out behind her.

"How do you grind, what if you can't catch up?"

"Mother, this case will definitely be announced for a while, so there is no need to be in such a hurry."

"It's good to know today after a while, the time when the case occurred is the best, and we must catch up with this auspicious time. Let's go! ”

Aunt Zhou must go into the city to see the list with her own eyes to feel at ease, and Chun Tao naturally wants to follow, but she is not at ease when she leaves Lamei alone at home, so she leaves Lin Tian behind.

"Why is it so late!" When she arrived at March's house, March's mother had been standing outside the door and waiting for a long time. A few days ago, March Niang knew that Zhou Damiang's family was going to the city, so she offered to lend them the car.

"It's all these two kids, grinding."

"Alright! Don't talk about it, get in the car! lest you miss the hour. March Niang hurriedly got people into the car, "Okay, March, you hurry up!" Be careful on the road. ”

When the group arrived at the gate of the county government, it was already crowded.

"Look, I'll just say it's late! Look at how many people there are! When Aunt Zhou saw so many people, she couldn't help but blame Zhou Kuiruo.

"It's okay, wait for less, let's take a look."

"No, I must see it when the case happens, that time is the best." Aunt Zhou had already gotten out of the car while she was talking, and began to squeeze into the crowd.

Zhou Kuiruo immediately got out of the car and chased after him, and hurriedly told Chun Tao. "Chun Tao, you and March park the car and wait for me outside."

"Good!" Knowing that Zhou Kuiruo couldn't hear it, Chun Tao still responded. "Let's go! Let's go and wait for them. ”

March parked the car to the side, looked at the people in the circle and outside, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. "I didn't expect Aunt Zhou to be so brave, so many people dared to squeeze in."

"Why are you at home today?"

"Oh! Yesterday I knew about today's county government list, I guess you will definitely enter the city, just want to see and there is nothing that can help. After Mu Xuanchu found out, he said that he would let me stay at my mother's place for a few days and then go back. ”

Chun Tao smiled slightly, "I see, how did he treat you?" All right? ”

March didn't know what to think, and lowered his head, his face slightly red. "Hmmm! He was very good to me, and even if I did something wrong, he would help me. A few days ago, he took me to Hongyu Mansion..."

Speaking of Mu Xuanchu, March began to talk endlessly, and her face gradually became less red, seeing that she was no different from before marriage, Chun Tao breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems that after you got married, you have a good life, will you go home later?"

"If you don't go home, I'll send you back later!"

It seems that she has regarded the Mu family as her own home, but this is normal, the Zhao family is already her mother's family to her. Chun Tao was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, she realized which home she was referring to. "Then do you want to go to my house later, Lamei hasn't seen you for a long time, I miss you a lot."

"Yes! Lamei, she must be bored staying in your house all the time, just so I can talk to her about my visit to Hongyu Mansion, she must be interested. ”

"Don't be too excited, Zhao Boting has been gone for so long, she must miss him very much, don't use the matter between you and Mu Xuanchu to stimulate her."

"I know, don't worry!" March waved his hand to indicate that he had heard.

Chun Tao listened to March talk about some things that happened in Hongyu Mansion, and waited for a long time before she saw Zhou Kuiruo and Zhou Damiang.
