Liu Gensheng parked the donkey cart according to the path told by the scholar, and walked to the examination hall with Yan Fangxiang.

On the way, I didn't expect to meet old acquaintances ----- Yan Ah Gong and Yan Jianzhou, it seems that the grandfather and grandson have just finished the exam, and the results are extremely unsatisfactory when they look at their faces.

Yan Fangxiang walked up to the two of them and said respectfully: "Grandpa Yan, Brother Jianzhou." ”

Yan Ah Gong was stunned, and after looking at it for a while, he suddenly realized that the thin boy in front of him was Yan Fangxiang, the granddaughter of his uncle.

Looking at the surrounding environment, Yan Ah Gonghu said suspiciously: "Three girls, why are you coming to the academy?" Also, still dressed like this? ”

Yan Fangxiang's eyes instantly flushed, and she told everything that happened at home, the most important thing is that Yan Ah Gong holds the decision-making power of Yan Fangzhi and Yan Fangxiang who will take the account.

Yan Ah Gong was not happy when he landed: "This Liu Lizheng has made a two-sided scandal, so that I, an old man, am not a person inside and out!" Two girls, if you don't look at blood relatives, you have to look at the hometown, and whoever adds a hole is a sin. Can I be sure about this? ”

Yan Ah Gong's meaning is very clear: whose child is the one who holds it by himself, he doesn't open his mouth to make evil, and he doesn't want to care.

If he doesn't care, things can only go back to the original point, Yan Dazhu said it.

Yan Fangxiang retreated: "Grandpa, since Liu Lizheng asked you to speak, the spit you spit out can also be used as a nail." If you think that whoever you choose to pay off your debts is a sin, then take a step back and oppose the matter of marrying a daughter to repay the debt, so that my uncle will not sell his daughter, but only repay the money......"

Although there are a lot of gambling debts of one hundred taels, if the Yan family is willing to sell their houses and land and borrow everywhere, there is also a possibility of repaying it, but the big guys are unwilling to go bankrupt.

Yan Ah Gong did not nod or shake his head.

Yan Fangxiang understood that Yan Ah Gong was not even willing to open this mouth.

To put it bluntly, Ah Gong Yan and Yan Fangxiang's grandfather are just uncles and brothers, they are not far away, they are not close, there is no need to wade into this troubled water.

It's just that Yan Fangxiang is in front of her, so it's not good to refuse directly.

It was expected, otherwise Yan Fangxiang would not have come to negotiate with Sun Shanchang.

Yan Fangxiang changed the subject: "Ah Gong Yan, I didn't come to look for you on purpose, I came to find Sun Shanchang for something...... Why don't you get busy first? ”

Yan Ah Gong's eyes lit up: "Third girl, do you know Sun Shanchang?" ”

Yan Fangxiang shook her head: "I don't know, it's just that Sun Shanchang owes me a big favor, and I asked him to ask for a favor......."

Yan Ah Gong's eyes lit up, pulled Yan Fangxiang to the side, and lowered his voice: "Three girls, can you give this favor to Jianzhou and ask for a place in school......

Yan Fangxiang hesitated, and Yan Ah Gong immediately nodded through his words: "After the matter is completed, Ah Gong will be thanked." ”

Yan Fangxiang finally nodded in agreement: "Father, Brother Jianzhou's matter, I will try my best to help you achieve it; Can you help me with my business? ”

Yan Agong nodded his head: "Three girls, if Jianzhou can really enter the academy to study, I promise, no matter how Liu Lizheng and your uncle ask me to confess, I will never agree to pay you off the debt, how about it?" ”

The old and the young were decided, Yan Ah Gong went to wait for news outside the academy, and Yan Fangxiang waited in line for the exam.

The examination procedure is very simple, go in a group of five, Sun Shanchang randomly asks questions, and makes a poem in a stick of incense, and the results are out at that time, the good ones stay, and the bad ones are repatriated.

After about half an hour, it was finally Yan Fangxiang's turn.

Sun Shanchang sat on the top, glanced at the five students standing at the bottom, and said slowly: "Make poems with the theme of osmanthus, a stick of incense time." ”

As the time approached, the four students made poems, whether good or bad, but Yan Fangxiang did not do it, and hesitated to speak: "Sun Shanchang, please dismiss others, I have something to tell you." ”

Sun Shanchang thought that Yan Fangxiang wanted to send everyone back to bribe him, so he was disgusted, and said sternly: "Fork out!" ”

The two little guys stepped forward, Yan Fangxiang immediately panicked, and pointed to the incense ash of the timer: "Sun Shanchang, the incense is not burned, I make poems, make poems." ”

Sun Shanchang stopped the little guy.

Yan Fangxiang pondered for a moment, and then started a poem: "In August and August, osmanthus flowers bloom everywhere, with yellow, red and white. The daughter of the poor family did not dare to pick it, so she knotted cinnamon for lard. ”

Sun Shanchang looked at Yan Fangxiang in astonishment, this poem is not done properly, it does not rhyme, it is either color or lard, it is not enlightened at first glance, and it is casually recited according to the number of words.

But this is also a poem, with a strong local flavor, and the inner meaning makes people feel chills down their spines, reflecting the sad situation of the daughter at the bottom who loves beauty and is afraid of life, as long as the last sentence is slightly changed, it can also be called a poem.

Looking at Yan Fangxiang's age, if not fourteen, he will have fifteen, and he is a little older than he is enlightened......

Sun Shanchang finally shook his head, left one, and sent four back, including Yan Fangxiang.

Seeing that she was about to be sent out and the next round of students were about to come in, Yan Fangxiang took off the scarf, her hair was scattered, and she knelt on the ground with a "plop": "Mountain Chief, I'm not here to study, I have something to report about Miss Sun, and my life is at stake!" ”

The students all craned their necks to watch the excitement, and Sun Shanchang turned a cold face to Yan Fangxiang: "Call the person you accompany the exam in and follow me to the back hall." ”

Sun Shanchang was very cautious, in addition to letting Liu Gensheng accompany Yan Fangxiang, he also found a confidant to accompany him, for fear of any troubles.

After sitting down, Sun Shanchang said coldly: "I still have to take the exam, so I will only give you a stick of incense." ”

Yan Fangxiang stabilized her mind, and her words were not shocking: "Sun Shanchang, Li Chen wants to cancel the marriage contract with your daughter." ”

Then, there is no more text.

Sun Shan Changhu said suspiciously: "I'll give you a stick of incense time, and that's it?" And then what? ”

Yan Fangxiang's eyes were as bright as ink: "Sun Shanchang, this sentence is given to you by me for free; For more details, we have to talk about the conditions. ”

Sun Shanchang squinted lightly: "How much do you want?" ”

Yan Fangxiang shook her head decisively: "I don't want money, as long as you ask Grandpa Yan to help me say something." Yan Jianzhou, the grandson of Yan Ah Gong, failed to enter Linjiang Academy five times in a row, and if you open your mouth on this matter, Yan Ah Gong will definitely not refuse your request. ”

Yan Fangxiang changed into Yan Ah Gong begging Sun Shanchang, and became Sun Shan begging Yan Ah Gong, such a change was for fear that Sun Shanchang would think that the person who was blackmailing him was Yan Ah Gong, and he would give Yan Jianzhou small shoes to wear when he entered school in the future.

This is the result of Yan Fangxiang's careful consideration. As a result, she thought wrong.

Sun Shanchang didn't give her a chance to negotiate further at all, and the words he said were loud: "You are wrong, once the rules are broken, they will be broken and broken, and they will be useless." I will never set this precedent, you can leave with your secrets. ”

Yan Fangxiang shook her head decisively: "Sun Shanchang, you are also wrong, in fact, I have already thought about it, whether you agree or not, I will tell you the truth." I'm also a woman, and I won't let another woman be treated like a pig......"

Yan Fangxiang did not hesitate, and told all the things about being forced to marry by her uncle and her cousin jumping into the river to force marriage, and specially reminded that Li Chen once said that he would make "this family retreat so that Sun Shanchang was speechless".

Sun Shanchang's expression was not shocked, and he looked at Yan Fangxiang with admiration: "Your girl's family has a manly bearing, which impresses the old man...... In this way, you go and ask Ah Gong Yan, his grandson is still studying in the original private school, and I personally guide the schoolwork when he is resting, so that he has not only completed his studious heart, but also has not broken the rules of the academy, how about it? ”

Yan Fangxiang was overjoyed suddenly, Sun Shanchang is the only Jinshi in Linjiang Academy, he never teaches alone, and guides Yan Jianzhou alone, which is equivalent to giving him a small stove, how can there be any reason not to be happy?

Yan Fangxiang didn't expect that the problem she thought was higher than the mountain would be solved in this way.
