This sound frightened everyone.

"What are you yelling at, what's wrong?" Fang Wanjin asked with some disgust.

The sweet potato was anxiously pulled into his sleeve pocket, and he couldn't stop muttering: "I put it here, it was still there just now, why is it gone, there is no more." ”

Hearing this, the bamboo and the donkey were also anxious, and hurriedly surrounded him and helped him shake off their sleeves together.

"Are you sure you put it here?"

"It seems to be really gone, is it lost?"

"I don't know."

The three of them were anxious, Liu Yunxiang looked at them like this and asked, "Lost the money?" ”

As soon as these words came out, I didn't expect the sweet potato to cry out, "It's all my fault, blame me for losing the money, what can I do!" ”

The other two were busy looking around, and the more they searched, the more anxious they became.

Liu Yunxiang comforted them not to worry, and asked how much money they had lost.

"It's a tael of silver!" Bamboo rushed.

Liu Yunxiang was silent for a moment, "The money you earned from selling bamboo insects?" ”

"Yes, this time it's been almost a month, and the boss has only settled a tael of silver."

"That's it." Liu Yunxiang thought for a while, "The silver is lost, and I can't find it, you go back to class first, and then save it later." ”

"It's too late!"

Liu Yunxiang was about to ask why it was too late, when Fang Wanjin shouted, "Okay, don't shout, it's not." ”

As he spoke, he walked over, and then opened his mouth with a piece of silver in his palm.

The other three hurriedly came over and were stunned when they saw the silver in his hand.

"But we lost two pieces of silver." Sweet potato scratched his head.

Fang Wanjin coughed dryly, and stuffed it into the sweet potato hand a little uncomfortably, "It's always a tael of silver, you threw it on the ground, and I picked it up from the ground again, it's yours." Take it and go back. ”

What else did the sweet potato want to say, Liu Yunxiang waved his hand at him, "You guys go back to class first." ”

The three of them glanced at Fang Wanjin tacitly, and then turned around and went back.

Fang Wanjin looked at the sky and said to Liu Yunxiang: "Master, let's hurry down the mountain, if we delay it any longer, I'm afraid that we won't be able to come back before noon." ”

Liu Yunxiang responded and walked down the mountain with Fang Wanjin.

"That tael of silver was yours, right?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

Fang Wanjin pouted, "It's just a tael of silver, I'm just too lazy to listen to their crying and howling." ”

Liu Yunxiang turned his head to look at Fang Wanjin, this young man has a mean mouth, an impatient temperament, and loves to be naughty, but he is a good boy with a soft heart and kindness.

"By the way, they said it was too late, what does that mean?"

"They are pooling money and want to help Xie Si participate in the flower list."

"Xie Si wants to participate in the flower list?"

"Yes, the academy has been debranded, and the students in the academy are not eligible to participate in the township examination.

Liu Yunxiang nodded, she didn't expect this.

"Do you have to pay money to participate in the flower list?"

"Ten taels of silver, and Xie Si's father died of illness last year, and there is an old grandmother and her mother at home, where did they get these ten taels of silver, so the three of them have been helping him save since half a year ago."

I didn't expect these children to be so affectionate and righteous, Liu Yunxiang thought of something, turned his head and asked Fang Wanjin: "How much did you help with?" ”

"Since I was dropped out of Mingyuan Academy, my father cut off the pocket money given to me every month, and only my mother secretly gave it to me."

"How much?"

"Five taels."

Liu Yunxiang stretched out his hand and rubbed the top of Fang Wanjin's head, the child was frightened by the sudden blow and took a step back, and was a little shy after reflecting: "The top of a man's head can't be touched." ”

Liu Yunxiang smiled: "So you just added another tael of silver to them, did they make up enough?" ”

"That's enough, Xie Si will be able to participate in the flower list tomorrow."

"Then let's go cheer him on."

When she came to the market, Fang Wanjin was very familiar with this place and took her to the grain and oil shop. Liu Yunxiang asked for a lot, and after paying the money, he asked the guys in the shop to send it to the academy.

As a result, the guy didn't know where the Mid-Levels Academy was, and Liu Yunxiang had no choice but to say that it was behind Mingyuan Academy.

"I don't even know that there is a academy in Zhushui County." The guy patted his head.

Fang Wanjin said politely: "That's because you don't have much knowledge." ”

"Yes, yes, my fault."

Coming out of the grain and oil shop, Liu Yunxiang asked Fang Wanjin to take him to buy bowls and pots for vegetables, she found that the bowls in the academy were not enough, so one student had to wash them and then give them to another student.

Thinking of this, she bought more tables, chairs and benches, and added new quilts and mattresses to the students' houses, as well as basins and accessories for washing.

There was also the house of the academy that was too dilapidated and needed to be repaired, so she asked Fang Wanjin to lead her to find labor. After talking about when to repair the house, Liu Yunxiang hired another cook lady.

Watching her spend her silver flowers outward, Fang Wanjin was a little dumbfounded.

"Master, is your family rich?"

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Well, there is money, so you don't have to feel sorry for me." ”

"I didn't feel distressed."

Finally, he went to the meat stall, Liu Yunxiang thought about getting a big piece of meat and asked the cook to make dumplings for the children tonight.

They bought meat, and as they walked back, a woman called out to Fang Wanjin.

"Wanjin, why did you go down the mountain?"

Liu Yunxiang followed Fang Wanjin and turned around, and saw that it was a woman in her forties, carrying a basket on her arm, which contained green vegetables.

When Fang Wanjin saw her, he seemed a little at a loss, and subconsciously wanted to hide behind Liu Yunxiang. But the woman saw him, and came forward with a smile.

This woman, Liu Yunxiang is familiar with her, and she seems to have seen it.

"Wanjin, why haven't you come to the house for dinner for so long, your brother Xu is not here, and you will be separated from us?"

When Fang Wanjin saw the woman coming over, he could only stand up and said with a smile: "What did Uncle Niang say, I'm just busy with my studies recently and can't take a break." ”

The woman smiled and nodded, "It's like this, study hard, and be like your brother Xu, so that your father and mother will follow your face to shine." ”

"Yes, yes, Uncle is right."

The woman looked at Fang Wanjin's face full of love, and carefully instructed a lot, and then found Liu Yunxiang beside her.

"Who is this?"

"Oh, she's the wife of Mr. Yan, a newcomer to our academy."

"It's Mrs. Yan."

Liu Yunxiang nodded at the woman, and at the same time finally remembered who she was.

After saying a few more words, Fang Wanjin finally invited the woman away on the grounds that he was in a hurry to go back to the academy for classes.

"Her son was a student at Mid-Levels?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

This woman was from the family where the incense was made, and she had been to her house when she and Yan Du inquired about Mid-Levels Academy.

Fang Wanjin's face was a little ugly, "Oh." ”

"What's wrong?" Liu Yunxiang looked at Fang Wanjin's face wrong.

"There are too many unfairness in this world."

Liu Yunxiang was amused, "Why do you suddenly have such feelings?" ”

"It's like a business membership can't be examined for the imperial examination, but doesn't the imperial court always advertise that it is eclectic and talented, why is our business status lower than others? Moreover, the Queen Mother is still in business, how can she look down on businessmen. ”

Liu Yunxiang thought that Fang Wanjin was unhappy for himself, so he said: "It is a law set by the ancestors of Darong that businessmen cannot participate in the imperial examination, and the queen mother cannot change it at will." ”
