Chapter 155: Going North to the Capital

[Lao Gao is unwell, there are two more chapters today and tomorrow, and three chapters on Monday, please understand! ] 】

------

After the exam, the students in the county school have basically become herds, their classes have ended, the school no longer cares about them, allowing them to live until the end of the year, and then they have to vacate the dormitory for the new students recruited in January of the following year.

After the exam, the students quickly divided, and the students who didn't want to study anymore were looking for their own ways to make a living, just like Akihito and Mingli, and the students who wanted to take the exam again in the next class went home to lie down and study hard.

Therefore, most of the dormitories were locked, and only twenty or thirty students continued to wander around the county school.

Su Liang has decided to go to the capital to prepare for the exam, he has packed his luggage, stayed in the county school last night, and waited for Fan Ning to go north to Beijing together after he arrived.

The two had breakfast in the dining hall, Fan Ning took a sip of hot tea, and said with a smile: "Da Shou didn't plan to prepare for the exam in the county school, why did he want to enter Beijing?" ”

"There are a lot of people who worship him now, and I guess he can't stand it a little."

This time the county school students did not do well in the exam, except for Fan Ning and Su Liang, the two county scholars who participated in the children's examination, only two students were admitted to the exam, one was Shen Zongwang, a famous talent in the county school, he was the first in the county school, and then he was always the first, and he was the fifth in the exam this time.

It is not surprising that Shen Zongwang was admitted to the exam, but Li Dashou became a legend of the county school when he was admitted to the exam.

His reputation in Wu County is no less than Fanning, especially in the county school, and has become an idol worshiped by countless students.

Fanning was a little puzzled, "Isn't it good to have someone worship?" He couldn't stand it yet. ”

Su Liang smiled a little ambiguously, winked at Fan Ning and said, "Some worship is acceptable, but some worship is sinful, such as blind dates, do you know how many times Li Dashou has to rush a day?" He told me that the minimum day is four, Fanning, don't tell me, you don't have a blind date at home these days? ”

Fanning touched his face and pretended to be sad, "I don't think anyone likes my face, so far, I haven't had a blind date." ”

", how could you not, even me-"

Su Liang almost slipped out, Fan Ning grabbed him and smiled and asked, "What's even me?" Is it 'even I have been on a blind date countless times', Xiao Su, have you set a lifelong event? ”

Su Liang was annoyed that he had revealed his mouth, and he snorted angrily: "It's normal to go on a blind date!" People are sophisticated, introduced by three aunts and six aunts, can you refuse? I went on about five or six blind dates, and luckily, my mother didn't fancy any of them, let alone myself. ”

Fanning stroked the back of his neck like a hound, and said with a smile: "It's not that I didn't like it, the key is that some parts of the hair haven't grown yet!" ”

Su Liang was so angry that he jumped up and pinched Fanning's neck, "I'm going to strangle you!" ”

At this moment, someone shouted: "Li Dashou is here!" ”

Fan Ning and Su Liang stopped fighting, looked back, and saw the burly Li Dashou walking into the dining hall, and many of the lower dormitory students ran up and greeted Li Dashou with admiration on their faces.

Su Liang was a little depressed and said, "Let's raise people anyway!" You are still the first place in the boy's test, and no one came forward to sign for us or something? ”

"They weren't interested in us, and if their parents were here, we'd probably have to eat this breakfast until the evening."

"Makes sense!"

At this time, Li Dashou walked over quickly, "We are looking for you everywhere, and someone said that you are in the canteen, so I rushed over." ”

"Did you have breakfast?" Fanning asked.

"Ate it at home."

Fanning brought a plate of meat steamed buns over, "There are two left, you can eat them all!" By the way, what about your luggage? ”

Li Dashou grabbed two steamed buns and said vaguely while gnawing: "My luggage is on the boat, and the boat is parked on the dock outside the county school, when will I leave?" ”

Fan Ning and Su Liang glanced at each other, and the two got up and said, "We are all packed up and can leave at any time." ”

Not long after, Fan Ning and Su Liang came out of the dormitory with their luggage, Li Dashou was tall and powerful, carrying a bookcase in one hand, and the three of them walked towards the gate of the county school.

Walking to the door, they looked back at the county school, there was some nostalgia in their eyes, although they had said goodbye to the teachings and professors before, but today they walked out of this gate, even if they officially said goodbye to the county school, here, they spent two and a half years, full of countless good memories.

Walking out of the school gate, Li Dashou put down the bookbox, knelt down in front of the Qinxue Building, and kowtowed respectfully three times, then got up and picked up the bookcase and smiled: "Let's go!" ”

..........

Li Dashou's father is also on the ship, he is about forty years old, in addition to Li Dashou, there is also an eleven-year-old daughter, he and his son Li Dashou are completely poured out of the same mold, only a little older, the same tall and burly, the same dark skin, the same face full of meat, and the same kind-hearted.

If Fan Ning hadn't known that Li Dashou's father was the proprietor of the Li family boat company in Wu County, he would really think that Li Dashou's father was a pig slaughterer.

Of course, the butchers who killed pigs in the Song Dynasty were generally wealthy, such as Zhen Guanxi, Jiang Menshen and the like.

Li Dashou's sister is very delicate and fair-skinned, except for her tall figure, everything else is completely different from her father and brother, and it is estimated that she is like her mother.

When Father Li saw Fan Ning, he was so excited that he hugged him tightly, "I knew that Da Shou met you, a nobleman, and this is the blessing of Da Shou!" ”

Fan Ning didn't say a word of modesty, not that he didn't want to say it, but Father Li's thick arm strangled him and rolled his eyes, and it was easy to break free, Fan Ning gasped twice and said: "It should be Da Shou who is serious about his work, if he didn't go to the countryside to take the peasants seriously, he might not be able to pass the exam." ”

"That's why you instructed him to go to the countryside!"

Father Li's gratitude made Fan Ning a little unbearable, and he quickly diverted the topic, "Is Uncle also going to the capital?" ”

"I won't go, I just want to thank you in person, and after entering Beijing, I will ask the petty officials to take care of the birthday."

"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely do my best."

Father Li took his daughter off the boat, everyone waved goodbye, and the passenger ship of 500 stone began to leave the revetment and set off.

At this time, Fan Ning suddenly saw Zhang Ruoying and several professors standing in front of the gate of the county school to see them.

Fan Ning's nose was sour, and he hurriedly waved goodbye to Zhang Ruoying and the professors.

The boat traveled farther and farther, gradually leaving the county school wharf, turning a corner, and sailing towards the Grand Canal, where the county school and the family members who saw it off were out of sight.

"I'll get my luggage in!"

Li Dashou walked to the cabin with the bookcase.

Su Liang quietly smiled at Fan Ning: "I found out that Dashou's sister likes you very much!" She's been looking at you just now. ”

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Fanning gave him a punch and said in a low voice, "Da Shou will be angry when he hears it." ”

"It's weird!"

Su Liang pouted, "He wishes you would become his brother-in-law, why do you think his father brought his daughter?" If it's for a big birthday, why don't you come here, you brainless and open up! Dashou's father is shrewd. ”

"Anyway, don't make this kind of joke again in the future, it's either Da Shou embarrassed or I'm embarrassed, I just formed a team, and you kid is starting to destroy unity now?"

"Good! Good! I won't say anything. ”

Su Liang raised his hand, "Don't cover me with a big hat at every turn, my little heart is relatively immature and I can't bear your blow." ”

"Still immature? Where is the immaturity, you said the wrong position! ”

"Get out of the way, you!"

At this time, an elderly boatman stepped forward and saluted: "The four of us boatmen are all buddies of the Li boatman's boathouse, and when we left, the proprietor repeatedly instructed that everything going north this time will be decided by the Fan officials, and if there is any need, the little officials just said." ”

"It's been a hard journey, how long will it take to get to the capital?"

"If it goes well, it'll be in seven days."

The last time Fan Ning went to Beijing, it took fifteen days, mainly because the ship went slowly, plus the ship had to stop at night to rest, and a passenger ship like this with 500 stone sailed relatively fast, sailing day and night, so it only took half the time.

Fanning nodded, "We're not in a hurry, just sail at a normal speed!" ”
