There are three sessions in the autumn season, each of which lasts for three days, and candidates have to live in the examination shed for these nine days.

Grandma Song and Xu made Song Si a full set of new bedding, new clothes and handkerchiefs.

The first one was on August 9, considering that she would go to Fucheng to sell mint oil in advance, Song Wanyue decided to leave on the third day of August.

Early in the morning, the Song family all got up, and Liu Cuilan and Song Shu did not go out of the stall today, and stayed at home to see off Song Si.

The village chief also came, this was the first person in Songjia Village to take the exam for so many years, he held a handkerchief in his hand, with a few hard-boiled eggs in it, and handed it to Song Si, "Take it, eat it on the road." ”

Song Si didn't shirk it, and took it and put it away.

The village chief didn't know what the mood of the examiner was, but a few years ago he had heard that an old show from a village more than ten miles away had just gone to Fucheng to take the exam, and he fainted in the examination shed after half of the exam, which was said to be nervous.

He pondered and advised, "Song Si, your knowledge is one of the best in the academy, and this scientific examination is naturally no longer a problem, you remember, don't be nervous." ”

"I made a note of it."

The village chief was still not at ease, and wanted to say something, but after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't come up with anything else, so he patted him on the shoulder, "Take the test well, and strive to glorify your ancestors for your old Song family." ”

Old Man Song couldn't help much, he stood on the side and watched, and when he saw the village chief coming, he turned around and went into the house, took a cigarette pouch and came out, "Village chief, take a whole bite." ”

The two went to the side, and before they could take two puffs, there was the sound of a carriage outside the gate.

The village chief was surprised, "Song Gui, did you hire a carriage?" ”

Qingping County is not close to Fucheng, and it takes a lot of money to hire a carriage, but after thinking about it, the Song family must have made a lot of money selling cool skins these days, and Song is not guilty of hiring a carriage.

Old Man Song didn't hide it, mainly because Gu Yi came in after a while, and he couldn't hide it if he wanted to: "How can we have so much silver in our house, it's Young Master Gu's carriage, he just went to Fucheng to string relatives and carry Si'er all the way." ”

The village chief believed it, "That's great." ”

Song Lin and Song Shu had already gone out.

There were two carriages parked outside the door, the one in front was much larger than Gu Yi's usual one, and the one in the back was about the same as the one that picked them up on weekdays.

Behind the carriage, there were six small servants, who looked nothing special except that they were a little older than the fourth year younger.

"Uncle, second uncle, have you packed up your eldest brother's things? It's getting late, and it's time for us to go. Gu Yi came to urge.

"Pack it up, you wait, we're going to move out."

Song Shu turned around and went back to the courtyard.

Song Lin glanced behind the carriage several times, except for these few little guys, he didn't see anyone in special clothes, he frowned slightly, "Young Master Gu, just a few people follow you?" ”

It's too few, and if something happens on the road, these people are not enough to beat up.

"A few of them are enough, don't look at them as inconspicuous, fight one top three."

Song Lin was skeptical.

The bedding, clothes, and book baskets were all moved to the wagon, and in the end only mint oil remained.

Afraid that there would be a collision on the road and spill the peppermint oil, Song Lin was at home these days, and wrapped the porcelain vase with grass, because there was a village chief, it was not good to carry it out like this, Song Shu, Song Shen and Song Lin covered it before carrying it out and letting it go to the innermost part of the carriage.

Such a big movement of the Song family naturally alarmed the neighbors and came to inquire. Knowing that Song Si was going to Fucheng to take the exam today, they rushed to tell each other, and after a while, most of the people from the village gathered in front of Song's house, surrounding Song Si.

The village chief came out of the courtyard and knocked his cigarette pouch on the door frame, "It's getting late, they should go, get out of the way." ”

The crowd quickly backed away and made a way.

Gu Yi got into the carriage first, then Song Wanyue, and finally Song Sicai went up.

When they saw the two carriages just now, the people in the village were very surprised, and they were even more surprised when they saw Gu Yi and Song Wanyue also following-I didn't hear that the girl of the Song family and the young master of the Gu family were married, why are the two families so close?

The carriage started slowly and headed towards the entrance of the village.

The Song family followed behind until they reached the entrance of the village before stopping, watching the carriage go farther and farther away and disappear into the distance.

Inside the carriage, there was a large table with all kinds of pastries and fruits, and a small table next to it with a chessboard.

Gu Yi sat directly at the small table after getting into the carriage, "Big brother, what's next?" ”

Seeing him playing tricks without a trace, the corners of Song Wanyue's mouth twitched, Song Si has loved learning since he was a child, if he said that no one can compare to him in reading, but he doesn't know anything about playing chess, it's not that he doesn't like to learn, but no one teaches him.

Song Siliang glanced at Gu Yi and moved over, "How to get down?" ”

"Big brother won't?"

Gu Yi was very "surprised".

Song Wanyue skimmed her eyes, picked up a piece of watermelon, and took a bite slowly.

"Should I?"

Song Si asked rhetorically.

Gu Yi was choked.

The watermelon seeds in Song Wanyue's mouth almost squirted out, and she gave Song Si a thumbs up in her heart, and he was the only one who could make Gu Yi speechless.

"How?"

Song Si asked again.

This time, Gu Yi didn't dare to "do it", and honestly explained the rules of chess to him.

Song Si understood it at one point, took the white zi, and motioned for Gu Yi to go first.

Gu Yi intended to kill his sharpness, his momentum was like a rainbow, and he pressed step by step when he came up, Song Si responded unhurriedly, and he was not discouraged when he lost, so he collected the chess pieces and played again.

One, two, three......

I don't know how many games I played, Song Si was still very energetic, but Gu Yi couldn't hold on, and threw the chess pieces in his hand into the chess box, "If you don't play, you won't play if you kill me." ”

For most of the morning, he didn't move when he sat still, and he was exhausted.

Song Si glanced at him lightly, ignored him, retracted his gaze, and pondered the chess game in front of him.

Gu Yi got up, moved to Song Wanyue's side, and said aggrievedly, "Little girl, I'm going to be tired to death." ”

"Well deserved!"

Saying this, he still poured a glass of water for him, Gu Yi took it, drank it in one go, and moved it to Song Wanyueshi's side while he was putting the cup, and whispered, "Big brother is simply not human, where has he sat motionless for so long?" ”

He originally thought that after Song Si lost a few games in a row, he would be deeply hit, and he would throw the chess pieces like him, and then he could "taunt" him, but he didn't expect that he would persevere, and the first thing he couldn't stand was himself.

"When the eldest brother took the Xiucai exam, he only slept for two hours a day, let alone most of the morning, even if it was the next whole day, he wouldn't give up first."

Boom!

Gu Yisheng slammed his head on the table without love, he was wrong, he was really wrong, he would never dare to mock Song Si in the future.
