Su Xiaomu took out a letter from her arms and slapped it on Zhou Lin, her pale face was full of exhaustion, but she had to cheer up and discuss with Zhou Lin.

"The county magistrate and the master wrote to me in Fucheng, saying that he had already repaired a letter to his teacher, so that we could go and walk the path of his teacher, and said that he would also be promoted to Beijing in half a month, and then we could discuss this matter in detail together."

After she finished speaking, her tired eyes couldn't be opened, and she couldn't help but yawn and covered it with her hands, and then said smoothly: "If you're okay, I'll go back to sleep, and we'll talk about the rest tomorrow." ”

"Wait."

Zhou Lin awkwardly stopped Su Xiaomu, he rubbed his palms uneasily, and explained that he had misunderstood her words before: "I thought you were sitting on the first floor these days, killing time, but I didn't expect you to really worry about Jingcheng, I shouldn't spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." ”

"I don't care what you're thinking." Su Xiaomu shrugged his shoulders and stopped what he was going to say next, and replied in a tone that was neither salty nor light.

"You are Gu Jingcheng's good brother, the relationship between the two of them is so good that they are willing to give up their imperial examination to save his life, it is really emotional, and although I am not as affectionate as yours with him, in the end, it is also a husband and wife who will not call him to death in front of their eyes, as for the ...... in the past two days"

Su Xiaomu tilted his head slowly, and then laughed mockingly: "It's me who took the wrong path, it's normal for you to be unhappy." ”

After that, Su Xiaomu didn't wait for Zhou Lin to reply to her, turned around and yawned several times in succession, and went back to the room sleepy.

"No wonder Jingcheng likes you, I can't look at other women besides you, a calm and wise girl like you is indeed a rare existence in the world."

Zhou Lin sighed silently, closed the door and went back to bed.

He had been anxious about Gu Jingcheng's affairs for the past few nights and couldn't sleep, but now he can see a little new hope in his affairs, and he can finally close his eyes well.

Su Xiaomu slept for a night without burden, she cleaned herself up the next morning, and then she was ready to take the recommendation letter from the county master to find his teacher.

Speaking of this letter of recommendation, Su Xiaomu really had to feel that the ancients were indeed keen on letters.

In the two letters she got yesterday, there was almost no big vernacular, and she wrote two letters in a completely literate manner.

If it weren't for the fact that she had been doing business in Fucheng for a long time and had recognized all the traditional characters she didn't recognize, it would have been really difficult to know what the letter was talking about.

Naturally, she still feels jerky and difficult to understand some of the words and sentences, and this time, there is always an element of guessing.

Shangguan Rui, the teacher of the county prince, was the former prince and young master, although he was about the same age as a man, he was still a pivotal figure in the court.

And the Shangguan family where he is located is also at the forefront of the families in the capital, so that many official families will be afraid.

Before Su Xiaomu went out, she had been thinking about how to talk to Young Master Shangguan later, it was no exaggeration, this Lord Shangguan was the person she had known for so long in ancient times.

Talking to an elder like him not only requires careful thinking, but also needs to please him, at least when you meet him for the first time, you must not leave any bad impression on him.

Su Xiaomu was apprehensive, she kept cheering herself up, the moment she stepped out of the room, she tried to restrain her pounding heart, but at the moment when she was about to go downstairs, she saw the mother-in-law beside Lord Shoufu.

It's done!

This was Su Xiaomu's first thought when he saw that mother-in-law.

Since Mrs. Shoufu already has a letter here, Su Xiaomu will not visit the county master's master for the time being.

She caught up with Shoufu, and it was not clear if there was a discord between Shoufu and the prince and young master, so it was better to find one first.

In the end, it was the residence of the first assistant of the dynasty, although Lord Shoufu has always had a good reputation for frugality outside, his mansion is still luxurious and ordinary officials can't compare.

Su Xiaomu had also seen a lot of northern gardens on TV before, including many princes' mansions and private residences, and Lord Shoufu's mansion was not much inferior to those in the royal family.

In the courtyard where Su Xiaomu followed his mother-in-law, the evergreen branches were luxuriant, and a large area of shade hung on the ground, and then there was a pavilion inside, and the tables, chairs and benches inside were all precious golden fragrant wood, even outside, there was a stove of sandalwood burning on the table, and the smoke was faint, which made Su Xiaomu's originally somewhat impetuous heart calm down instantly.

The mother-in-law did not take Su Xiaomu directly to Mrs. Shoufu, but went to Mrs. Shoufu's kitchen first.

Su Xiaomu also understands this meaning, she made some pastries for Mrs. Shoufu according to the recipe last time, although the appearance is exactly the same, but the taste is still slightly different.

After all, she hadn't seen her for a few days, and if she was tired of eating pastries, wouldn't she lose this advantage.

The mother-in-law stared at Su Xiaomu the whole time, and saw that she came with her honestly, and honestly cooked in the kitchen without any other extra thoughts, so she looked at Su Xiaomu a little higher, and her gaze at her was no longer as cold as before.

"Madame is waiting for you in front, just give me this pastry first, Madame has just eaten, but I don't have any extra stomach to eat."

The mother-in-law took the steaming pastry from Su Xiaomu's hand and pointed out the direction for her.

It's another pavilion, but there is no incense burning in this pavilion, but some seasonal melons and fruits are placed in the four corners, and there is a fragrance of melons and fruits lingering around at this time.

Su Xiaomu secretly said in his heart, he deserves to be a rich and noble family, and his body is not good enough to smell spices, so he is clever about other things.

After a few days, Mrs. Shoufu's complexion was much better than before, although she was only wearing a plain dress today, and she did not have extra gold hairpin jewelry on her head, but she used a wooden hairpin to tie up her hair in a bun, but it was still difficult to hide the beauty of the country.

The sick beauty is a little less sick, but it is still alive.

"It's Mrs. Su." Mrs. Shoufu beckoned Su Xiaomu over, and she took Su Xiaomu's hand with a smile on her face, and there was no shelf of the superior at all.

"I told the adults what you told me last time, what he means is that although Yuemei has lost the rules, after all, it is her niece, and it is not easy to criticize her for making a big deal about it, see if you can gently expose the matter here?"

After Mrs. Shoufu finished speaking, she saw that Su Xiaomu's face was not very good, and added: "But don't worry, your husband will let him out, including his imperial examination, and the matter will not be affected in the slightest, and in the future, if he enters the office, we adults can also help him." ”

Mrs. Shoufu looked like she was for the good of Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng, and she was kind and seductive: "Actually, Yuemei is not a bad person, she is just more pampered than ordinary women, and it is the first time that she likes a man like this when she is so big, if she doesn't really want to take your husband seriously, she won't use such indiscriminate means." ”

"So Madame is saying that it was our fault?"
