Old Man Tai hurriedly responded, "Mr. Wu, please say, if there is something, our family can help, and we can't give up the definition." ”

Tai Yongning also listened respectfully.

Mr. Wu then said, "Originally, according to the previous rules, there was a gap of more than half a year after the children's examination. For example, now that children are taking the exam in May, they will take the exam at the end of the year at the earliest, and there will be no news even at the beginning of spring next year. But this year, there are some changes in the court, and the Xiucai exam may be set for two months later. ”

Two months later?

The old man and Tai Yongning were all surprised, and they couldn't react for a while.

Mr. Wu didn't take Qiao either, and continued, "If the news is accurate, then we will go back to Tai'an tomorrow, and I'm afraid we will have to come back in a month." So, I thought it would be better to continue to live, study hard behind closed doors, and go back together after passing the Xiucai exam.

"Of course, with your current knowledge, the test is a little reluctant. But if you're lucky, you'll save three years of time by finishing at the bottom of the list. If you are unlucky enough to fall off the list, it is also a rare experience, and you will definitely succeed in high school next time.

"Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the news is not accurate, there will be no Xiucai exam after two months, and there will be no loss from studying hard for two months. What do you guys think? ”

Old Man Tai understands Mr. Wu's methods, and since he has told the news, he must be a hundred sure.

In other words, there will definitely be a talent exam in two months.

Mr. Wu wanted to take his disciples and attack again in one go. One of the four kids is in high school, and the other three are good motivators and guides.

Even if you don't get one, this kind of exam experience is especially valuable.

The more Old Man Tai thought about it, the happier he became, and simply responded, "Okay, Mr. Wu is right." I support Yongning to stay and study! This child has always felt guilty because of the difficult life at home, and he likes to read since he was a child, but he has not had the opportunity to touch books. Now that there is a gentleman planning for him, and our family is enough to support him to study without distractions, then what is there to hesitate about! A must try! ”

Tai Yongning was a little worried about going home to see, after all, the wolves had just broken into the village before, what if anyone in the family was injured but didn't tell him.

But what Mr. and Grandpa said makes sense, and the opportunity is rare. It's only been two months, and if you don't take the test, you will go home!

So, he stood up and saluted, and said, "Thank you, sir, for your planning, and my disciple is willing to stay and study for the exam." ”

Song Hui was not stupid, they all got up and saluted.

"Sir, I'm willing to stay."

"Sir, I want to try it too."

"If I pass the test, I will be the youngest talent in Tai'an!"

The last sentence was said by Qi Ming, which made everyone laugh.

Mr. Wu motioned for them to sit down and instructed, "Since you all agree, let's stay for another two months." I will arrange all the other chores, and you can just study. ”

Old Man Tai also helped, "Your husband is right, if you have something to take home, just give it to me." I will definitely hand it over to your relatives and explain the reason for your delay. I believe that your family will understand! ”

"Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie!"

Song Hui thanked him and thought about writing a letter for a while......

I heard that Yongning couldn't go back together, and the others didn't do well, but Zhuzhu was disappointed.

She threw herself into her grandfather's arms and asked aggrievedly, "Why can't the second brother go home?" My mother misses my second brother! The mother thought that Zhuzhu was asleep, and when she talked to her father, Zhuzhu heard it. ”

The old man hurriedly hugged the fat girl and explained, "Didn't Zhuzhu want her brother to take the top prize, your second brother stayed to study hard, and then he could go home after two months." When the time comes, your mother will be Xiucai's mother, and she will definitely be happier! ”

"Really?" Zhuzhu tilted her little head, and two small chirps on her head were tied with silver bells, which jingled.

In the end, the fat girl sighed, waved her fat hand like a little adult, and said in a milky voice, "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety can't be both!" ”

The room was silent for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

The fat girl is simply cute and crazy, obviously so small, but she talks old-fashioned.

Tai Yongning took his sister, kissed her fat face gently, and said with a smile, "Yes, my sister is right, the second brother is like this." But the second brother must go home early after the exam, okay? ”

"Okay." Zhuzhu pouted in response, and then took the second brother's hand and put it on his head.

Tai Yongning rubbed his sister's soft little hair familiarly, and his heart was also a soft mess.

"Zhuzhu, don't worry, the second brother will take the exam slowly, and he will definitely give you a champion to go home."

The matter has been settled at this point, how did Old Man Tai and the others come here and how to go back.

It's just that there is an extra Chen Ruiyang in the team, as well as the things that Song Hui and others bought for the family, the letters they wrote, plus a bunch of goods bought back by Tai Jiye, and seven or eight more carriages have been added for this, which looks like a small caravan.

Mr. Wu was not at ease, so he specially asked Steward Wu to help, and found a big caravan to go to the border to accompany him.

The steward of the big caravan was very proud, and he never came forward to speak to the Tai family, but whenever there was something, he only let a small steward pass the word back and forth.

The Tai family didn't think anything of it, after all, they were just on the same road.

If you have fate and temper, you will have many places and many friends, and many roads.

If you don't like each other, you can stay away.

It was only five or six days away, and it passed in a flash.

But no one expected that when they came, they traveled smoothly day and night, and when they went back, they joined the mighty caravan, but something went wrong.

As soon as there was a fifty-mile road out of Fucheng, it rained heavily in the sky, and seeing that it was impossible to hurry, the caravan got off the official road and took the dirt road instead, wanting to transfer to a mountain village to stay.

But I don't know who dug a big hole on the dirt road, and the carriage was stuck in seven or eight cars, and when I wanted to turn around, there were a few more fallen trees on the road behind!

At this time, even a fool knows that he has been calculated!

The Tai family's convoy was originally at the end, and the old man Tai saw that it was not good, so he immediately stood on the wheel and quickly ordered everyone.

"Close the carriage, everyone unsheath their knives, put on their bows and arrows, I'm afraid someone will rob the convoy!"

There are not many people from the Tai family this time, they are all old and young, and only He Shan is the main force.

But Old Man Tai is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time, Tai Yongan is uncomfortable if he doesn't fight for a day, Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue have followed Tai Jiye in the grassland!

Only one Chen Ruiyang is a little worse, but he is also a ruthless man who ran back to the north from Shunde Mansion alone.

Chen Ruiyang was originally holding Zhuzhu in the carriage to play with the flower rope, and was about to jump out when he heard the movement, but was pressed back by Tai Yongan.

"You take care of Zhuzhu, you don't need you here!"

Chen Ruiyang was a little depressed, but when he turned around and looked at Zhuzhu, who was blinking with big eyes and didn't know what was happening, he could only pick up the flower rope again......

The Tai family's small convoy quickly formed a circle, and the carriages were connected end to end, turning into a temporary small fortress.

Everyone occupied the "pass" position, staring at the outside.
