Chapter 88: The Examination Ends

I still want to do a small business and make money happily.

She walked around her shop, carefully looked at the courtyard behind her, and after estimating what she had to spend money on, she went to buy things again.

She doesn't like to haggle when she goes to the shop, and is willing to spend money on expensive things that look good but are not practical.

Su Xiaomu now has a lot of money left in his pocket, and there is no need to bend his waist for five buckets of rice, so he generously went to the restaurant to eat at night.

She ate to her heart's content, and with the packed pastries, she was ready to go home and sleep comfortably.

On the first night, she bought a large iron lock, and when she was going to sleep, she hung the lock on the door, and kept the key close to herself.

After bathing and washing, she was content to sleep with her silk quilt, but somehow, she always felt that she was a little unsure tonight.

She didn't hear the barking of the neighbor's dog, not even the sound of the wind whirring outside the window.

And I don't know if it's her delusion, she always feels as if she hears the sound of heavy objects falling outside, and the sound of dead branches and leaves being trampled.

"Nothing...... There are also occasional wildcats at night......"

She tried hard to convince herself that there was a curfew in the city, and that there were officials patrolling outside, and although she lived alone, she was much safer than before.

There is someone outside to protect, there is no need to be scared at all.

But after these words of persuasion, after the space became quieter and quieter, she could only hear her own breathing and creaking, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.

Countless terrifying conjectures were entwined in her heart, her body wrapped in the quilt gradually became cold, her forehead seemed to be a little cold, and her palms were sweating uncontrollably.

Her brows furrowed, her eyes staring closely in the direction of the doors and windows, her heart churning with countless terrifying conjectures.

Suddenly, a chill rushed up her spine, making her sweat stand upside down and shiver all over.

"Bang!"

The sound of a heavy object falling outside, Su Xiaomu silently pulled out the dagger placed under the pillow, carefully lifted the quilt and put on his robe, and pasted it to the door.

There were two porcelain vases in the window, which were facing the window at the moment.

She took out the fragments of the porcelain bowl that she had accidentally broken yesterday and spread them under the windowsill, sprinkling a layer of salt crystals on them.

If someone comes, they will definitely be tricked!

Someone has set their sights on her small yard and wants to rob it?

It seems that she has bought a lot of things these days, and she has been targeted by people with bad intentions.

After she had done all this, she stepped back to the door with her dagger in her hands.

She regretted a little at this moment why she didn't make some chili water, or make some anti-wolf spray and something like that.

She didn't know how many people were out there.

But the sound of tiptoeers coming towards her was slowly getting louder.

She gasped for breath to calm her mind.

She had a back door in her yard, unlocked, just a thick piece of wood, and if she ran out now, she should have the help of her neighbor.

Thinking of this, a trace of determination flashed in Su Xiaomu's eyes, and then at the same time as the window was opened, he opened the door and ran towards the back door without looking back.

For the first time, she felt like she could run that fast.

It's also the first time that I feel that people can burst out with such strong potential when they are forced into a desperate situation!

The wood she had tried before, and she couldn't push it away with all her strength, snapped and toppled it today.

Then she pushed open the back door and ran towards her neighbor's house shouting for help!

"Uncle Zhang, help!"

An hour later.

Su Xiaomu, who was holding a simple baggage, reluctantly checked into the inn where she had been living before.

She was lucky, Uncle Zhang's family couldn't sleep after eating too much collectively tonight, so they sat in the yard chatting and eating.

Hearing that there was a movement on her side, everyone from the whole family came to help.

They packed up the bandits and sent them to the government in a few clicks, and they kindly invited her to stay at their house for a while.

However, Su Xiaomu really didn't want to bother others, and she left a little psychological shadow here tonight, so she politely rejected Uncle Zhang's kindness and went to the inn to rest.

She didn't go back to her courtyard,

After returning from a trip to the government, she decided to accept the advice of the official master and find a servant who knows kung fu in Renyazi to protect her.

After all, in this ancient period, she was alone, she couldn't do anything but make money, and she had no ability to protect herself, so it was really easy to attract the attention of others.

There are no capable people to support her, and she is a weak woman who is really easy to be bullied by others.

Thinking of this, Su Xiaomu's desire to find a servant became more and more intense, that is, he stayed at Renyazi every day and chose servants who knew some fist and foot kung fu.

And before she could pick out a suitable one, it was the day when Gu Jingcheng finished the exam.

"That's it, that's it today, if you come here again, I hope to help me pay more attention, and the request is the same as before."

Thinking that Gu Jingcheng was coming out, she really had to pick him up in person.

By the way, ask him how he did in the exam and if he has a chance to win the top spot.

Gu Jingcheng reads so well and writes so well, she is really looking forward to his achievements.

has a beginning and an end, and is always a friend, although the two usually don't get along very well.

"Okay, I'll send someone to find the lady after I choose, it's still the same position last time, right?"

Renyazi's impression of Su Xiaomu is excellent.

A lavish guest like her is rare in the whole city.

When it came to the day when the students came out of the examination room, the examination room was crowded with people, and there was an endless stream of carriages coming and going, and Su Xiaomu didn't squeeze in for a long time.

Finding a place with a little less people, Su Xiaomu tiptoed and stretched his neck to find Gu Jingcheng's figure.

After a long time, I saw Gu Jingcheng's figure in the crowd.

He was dressed in a navy blue round-necked robe with a gray headband hanging from his crown, and his back was straight as he walked towards her.

Under the bright sunshine, Su Xiaomu felt the warmth of Gu Jingcheng for the first time.

"How's it going?"

She took his burden from his hand and walked forward with him.

"How are these days? I see that many of them look very good when they come out...... Although I haven't experienced it, I want to come...... It doesn't seem like that......"

Su Xiaomu felt that her taste had changed a little when she said this, as if she had just come out of prison.

So he immediately changed the topic awkwardly: "Before the list is released, let's continue to live in the inn before you."

When I came here just now, I had already opened a room for you, and ordered you a table of your favorite dishes, which I suffered in for several days, and I must make up for it when I come out. ”

"I did well in the exam, so do as you say."
