Chapter 180: Si Tiantai Exam, once in a lifetime
At that time, Yun Qingli didn't think so, but now he smells the fragrance and regrets it, the food of the world's best food shop is also delicious, but it is not as good as the fifth sister's own cooking, the fifth sister has not made food for a long time, and he actually didn't eat it because he was accidentally late once.
Yun Jinhua gnawed on the chicken wings, "Fourth brother, see if you dare to be late next time." ”
Yun Qingli swallowed his saliva, turned around and left ruthlessly, he was going to practice martial arts to vent his frustration.
The days passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was July.
The weather is hot and dry, and pedestrians who go out are sweating.
Yun Chujiu rarely goes out, hiding at home to eat ice water and live a leisurely life.
The world's No. 1 delicious shop has launched new food, all kinds of appetizers, cold dishes, cold water, and business is as hot as ever.
These days, it's not that no one has hot eyes to find fault, and they have all been blocked back by Yun Wanyi, and if she can't solve it, she will find Yun Chujiu, and Yun Chujiu will go to Prince Shun again.
So everyone knows that the world's best food shop has a backer, and the backer is Prince Shun, and basically no one comes to find fault with it.
Yun Wanyi is now starting to open a branch, she has already bought a shop near the National Women's Prison that is being renovated, and it will officially open when the renovation is completed.
The world's best food shop, that shop was also bought.
Yun Chujiu finished eating a bowl of ice water, got up and went to the Library Pavilion, and saw Yun Que Pavilion in a hurry at a turn, "Second brother, where are you going in such a hurry?" ”
"Today is the first day of the seventh month, Si Tiantai exam, I'll take a look." Yun Qiting didn't stop and dropped a sentence.
Only when he is eighteen years old can he participate in Si Tiantai's assessment, and Yun Yanting will only turn eighteen years old in September, he went to see the excitement today, and by the way, he accumulated a little experience.
Yun Yan Pavilion came to Si Tiantai, and a bunch of people were crowded outside Si Tiantai, everyone came to see the excitement, but unfortunately the exam was inside Si Tiantai, and they couldn't go in.
Yun Qiting stood in the middle of a group of people, trying to squeeze to the front, but as soon as he took a step, he was blocked back by the person in front.
The crowd was surging, the hot sun was dazzling, the ground was hot, someone was trampled on a shoe, stepped on the ground barefoot, the soles of the feet were instantly red, I couldn't help but exclaim, hurry to find my shoes.
"The exam has begun, and the National Teacher must have appeared."
"I envy the people who take the exam, I can enter the Si Tiantai, I really want to enter the exam, even if I can't pass the exam, it doesn't matter, but unfortunately I'm thirty years old now, past the age to take the exam."
Only men between the ages of 18 and 25 can take the Si Tiantai exam, and they can only take the exam once in their lifetime.
Yun Yan Pavilion stood outside until dark, and the people who took the exam came out one after another, one by one with their heads bowed and looking depressed.
Everyone squeezed up and gossiped, "Have you seen the national teacher?" ”
"What does the inside of the Si Tiantai look like? Isn't it majestic? ”
"What is the content of the exam?"
The student sighed, "I didn't see the national teacher, the people who came forward were all disciples in Si Tiantai, Si Tiantai is very spectacular, I can enter Si Tiantai once in my life, and I will die without regrets." ”
"Observe the celestial phenomena and answer the questions listed by the national teacher."
"I don't know how to look at the sky at all, I'm sure I won't be able to get by."
Some people are curious, "What problems does the national teacher list?" ”
The student's expression suddenly became a little strange, "Have you eaten today?" ”
The person next to him blew up: "I didn't eat, I asked you the question of the national teacher, what did you ask me if I ate or not?" ”
"That was the question of the national teacher just now."
Everyone: "......"
The national teacher is becoming more and more difficult to figure out, and the problems are different every year, and they are strange.
Yun Yan Pavilion looked up at the gate of the Si Tiantai, clenched his fists, and turned to leave.
He will come back next year.
Dingguo Mansion.
Yun Chujiu returned to his courtyard from the library pavilion, saw Yun Wanyi sitting on the threshold eating melon seeds, and walked over with a smile, "My big boss, how is the branch prepared?" ”
Yun Wanyi raised her head, "It's ready, it will open after the Qiqiao Festival." ”
The shop near the National Women's Prison was 10,000 taels of silver, and her heart was dripping blood when she paid the money, but she thought that Jiujiu was about to go to the National Women's Prison to study, so she gritted her teeth and bought it.
The female eunuch in the country is basically a noble girl from a family, and she is also generous in her shopping, and she will earn more.
Yun Wanyi grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stuffed them into Yun Chujiu's hand, "Wine and wine, eat quickly, this melon seed is so fragrant, delicious." ”
Yun Chujiu looked at the melon seeds in his hand and sighed, "This kind of weather is the most suitable for eating watermelon, and if you chill it for a while, the icy and refreshing watermelon will make people feel comfortable." ”
Yun Wanyi listened to Yun Chujiu's description, and her saliva was about to flow out, "Only the nobles in the palace can eat watermelon, I haven't eaten watermelon yet, I really want to eat it." ”
"There are a lot of watermelons in Jiangnan, as long as you have money, you can eat whatever you want." Yun Chujiu sat down beside Yun Wanyi.
The watermelon was kept for a short time, the path was muddy, and there was no way to transport it to the capital in large quantities, and only the nobles and powerful families in the palace spared no effort to transport some fruits from the south of the Yangtze River to the capital.
Yun Wanyi had yearning in her eyes, "If I have the opportunity, I will definitely go to Jiangnan to eat watermelon." ”
Yun Chujiu said: "There are lychees in Lingnan, and lychees are also delicious. ”
"I heard that Lingnan is very dangerous and desolate, and that officials who have made mistakes in the DPRK and China have either been demoted to Lingnan or to the northwest, and many people have died halfway through." Yun Wanyi shook her head, "I don't dare to go." ”
"Lingnan is indeed the case." Yun Chujiu nodded.
Yun Wanyi tilted his head, "Jiujiu, have you ever been to Lingnan?" ”
Yun Chujiu hummed, "I've been there, I heard that there are a lot of lychees in Lingnan, so I asked the master to take me there, I did encounter a lot of dangers on the way, but there are also many pure and kind people." ”
She and her master stayed in Lingnan for a month and then left, and she ate lychees for a month, which she will never forget.
Yun Wanyi still didn't dare to go to Lingnan, she thought that it was about to be the Qiqiao Festival, so she took Yun Chujiu's hand, "Jiujiu, the night of the Qiqiao Festival was very lively, let's go out to play." ”
Yun Chujiu nodded, "Okay." ”
On the night of the Qiqiao Festival, the capital was brightly lit.
Yun Wanyi took out a rabbit mask out of nowhere and handed it to Yun Chujiu, "Jiujiu, bring it quickly, no one will throw a purse at you if you put on a mask." ”
The Begging Festival is a gathering of young boys and girls, and people throw purses at them without masks.
Yun Chujiu wanted to see the begging festival in the capital, but she didn't want others to throw her purse at her, so she calmly took the rabbit mask handed over by Yun Wanyi and brought it on.
The sisters walked out of the Dingguo Mansion hand in hand.
Suzaku Street is bustling with activity, hawkers shouting loudly, Miss Childe is richly dressed, some people are wearing masks, some people are not wearing masks.
The moonlight was sprinkled and reflected on everyone's faces, everyone was smiling, and the girl received her sweetheart's purse, smiled shyly, and took out her purse with a red face and threw it into her sweetheart's hand.
