He couldn't bear the man's hot eyes.

When Li Qiao's kiss fell again, he closed his eyes and the corners of his mouth curled.

He likes Li Qiao so much.

These days, the two of them seem to want to make up for the lack of happiness in the past, and they are making trouble late every day.

At this time, my heart was not only happy, but also as sweet as eating honey, so the two went directly to the bed.

In the evening, it's time for dinner.

After making dinner, Li Dashan stood at the door of the backyard and shouted a few times, and when he saw that no one answered, he turned around with a clear face.

Put a part of the dinner in the pot to keep warm, and when his uncle and Uncle Zhu are hungry, eat when they are hungry.

The next day, the cold wind that had been blowing for a day stopped, but the light rain drifted down, and the light rain was like silk, and soon covered the world with a layer of water vapor.

It was wet and cold, so Li Qiao simply burned the kang.

In the morning, he and Tao Zhu were checking whether there were any omissions in their luggage, and Zhuang Wen came.

Zhuang Wen finally made a decision, and this time he and Li Qiao went to the capital to participate in the examination.

"I'm old, my ambition has been smoothed out in thirty years of studying, if I miss this time, then I have to wait another three years, and after three years I don't know if I have the strength to survive the test."

This township exam made him exhausted, not to mention the exam in three years.

Three years later, he was three years older, nearly 50 years old, and the entrance examination was in February.

February is not the coldest time, but temperatures are also low.

Even if he was wearing thick clothes, he couldn't bear it for nine days in that small house without doors and windows.

Therefore, he didn't wait, he went to the capital with Li Qiao.

Whatever the outcome, he accepts it.

"You have real talent and real learning, I will take the exam with you, and I will definitely be able to get your joy." Zhuang Wen smiled and said to Li Qiao.

"Brother Wen, you are accumulating a lot, and it is up to you to be able to get the lift. Believe in yourself, and maybe it will end well. ”

Li Qiao felt that Zhuang Wen's ability to win the promotion was more on his own.

Zhuang Wen laughed when he heard this: "Okay, then brother, I will borrow your auspicious words and strive to take the entrance examination for a Jinshi background." ”

Of course, it doesn't matter if he is from the same Jinshi background, when the time comes, even if it is a teaching from a college, then he is willing.

Zhuang Wen decided that he was going to the capital to catch the exam, and immediately began to pack his luggage after returning home.

Li Qiao and Tao Zhu went to the county seat to find Han Ning, they followed the Han family's convoy north to Beijing, and now there is an extra dealer, they must talk to Han Ning.

However, when he walked to the gate of the county seat, Li Qiao saw a familiar carriage, which was Xu Ying's.

Xu Ying had dark circles under her eyes and looked haggard.

Seeing Li Qiao, he rubbed his face and forced out a smile: "Brother Li, I have decided, I will go to the capital with you to catch the exam." ”

"Are you sure?" Li Qiao was a little surprised.

"Yes. But before that, I have to marry Brother Hua first, but don't worry, I won't delay my departure. ”

Xu Ying said again.

"Huh?"

Li Qiao was stunned.

Tao Zhu's eyes also widened, what's the situation?

Chapter 99 Shen Hua is reluctant to marry, they are all supporting roles, and Li Qiao has few plots to solve Zhou Mingsheng

"You want to marry Brother Hua'er? It's too much of a rush. Brother Xu, did something happen? ”

Li Qian looked at Xu Ying's obviously abnormal face and asked with concern.

"It's a little rushed, and I'll be wronged by Brother Painting, but when I come back from the capital, I will definitely do it again, and then I will marry Brother Painter home in style." But this time, I only invite Pingcheng's relatives and friends, Brother Li, your husband and wife must come to drink the wedding wine. ”

Xu Ying said and got into the carriage again: "Time is tight, Brother Li, you go to busy with your first, I'll go to Shen's house." ”

"Brother Zhu and I are not in a hurry, but Brother Xu, can you use my place? You're welcome, just ask. ”

Li Qiao wanted to know what had happened.

This time only invite relatives and friends in Pingcheng?

That's a lot of information.

Could it be that Xu Ying and the Xu family fell out?

Of course, he really wanted to help.

He has little contact with Shen Hua, but Tao Zhu has more contact, according to Tao Zhu, Shen Hua is the squeamish, rich version of Zheng Qianqian, is a very good younger brother.

His impression of Shen Hua is also okay.

Of course, he hopes that Shen Hua can marry well.

As for Xu Ying himself, he doesn't know if Xu Ying knows the plans of the Xu family, but since he met, Xu Ying himself has given him the feeling that a humble gentleman is as gentle as jade, modest, hardworking, mild-tempered and never angry, and loves all the delicacies produced by his family, and is a very worthy friend.

Before Xu Ying really painted the scum Shen, he couldn't convict Xu Ying.

So at the moment he really wanted to help.

When Xu Ying heard this, she smiled bitterly, hesitated for a moment, and nodded: "As long as you don't delay your husband's business, then go to the Shen family together." ”

Li Qiao has to know sooner or later, and she can't hide it.

"I don't delay."

So Li Qiao got on the ox cart and followed the Xu family's carriage to the Shen family.

Although Shen Xuezheng is only a nine-rank petty official, the Shen family is a small landlord, and his wife is from the Xu family, and the dowry is quite rich, so the Shen family's house is quite large, and there are four entrances.

Shen Xuezheng was in the academy, and Mrs. Shen, Shen Hua's brother and sister-in-law, and Shen Hua entertained Xu Ying, Li Qiao, and Taozhu.

Xu Ying drank tea, then stood up, walked to Mrs. Shen in two steps, picked up the hem of her clothes and knelt down: "Auntie, I came to the Shen family today to propose marriage to Brother Hua'er, and begged my aunt to marry Brother Hua'er to me." ”

"I came in a hurry and didn't bring a dowry, but I promise you and my uncle that I will treat my brother well in my life and not let him be wronged. If I break my oath, then I will lose my reputation and restore my white body. ”

Mrs. Shen: "......"

Brother and sister-in-law of Shen Hua: "......"

Shen Hua: "......"

Li Qiao immediately went to see Tao Zhu, Tao Zhu's eyes were already wide open, and his face was in disbelief.

That's it?

And make such a heavy oath?

Could it be that Xu Ying really didn't know the Xu family's plans before?

"Ying'er, what the hell happened?" Madam Shen frowned.

"Mother, I want to say a few words to my cousin!"

Shen Hua, who came back to his senses, opened his mouth in front of Xu Ying.

Mrs. Shen: "......"

She looked at Shen Hua's emaciated cheeks, and her brows furrowed even tighter.

Her youngest son began to be depressed after returning from Fucheng the year before last, and she asked countless times, but the answer of the painting brother was nothing.

You can see the situation in front of you......

Shen Hua took Xu Ying back to his own courtyard.

However, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he paused and turned to look at Xu Ying.

Looking at the dark circles on Xu Ying's face, he was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Didn't you sleep well last night?" ”

"I rushed to Pingcheng to propose marriage, and I didn't care about sleeping." Xu Ying shook her head slightly.

"Do you want to marry me so much?" Shen Hua tugged at the corners of his mouth, and a mocking look appeared on his face without baby fat.

Now it was Xu Ying's turn to be silent.

The painting brother who has always adhered to him actually showed a sarcastic look at him......

With a sullen heart, he raised his hand and rubbed it, and then said, "I'm sorry, in the past two years or so, I have neglected you, and I should have noticed that something was wrong with you." My cousin is not responsible. ”

Brother Hua must have known what his family was thinking for a long time, so he became thinner and thinner, and the smile on his face became less and less.

But he only briefly asked a few times.

Brother Hua explained that he was thinner because he was taller, and he was more stable, so he smiled less.

He believed these two reasons.

On the one hand, he is stupid, and on the other hand, he really doesn't care about painting brother, if he puts painting brother on the tip of his heart, he will definitely get to the bottom of the question.

He was wrong.

"On top of that, I have to say I'm sorry again. I shouldn't have dragged you for so long, I should have married you earlier. ”

"I have to apologize for my family, I'm sorry, I didn't know they thought that. But in the final analysis, it's still my fault, but don't worry, no matter if I can get into the Jinshi when I go to the capital this time, you don't have to live with my family, they don't welcome you, I welcome you. ”

"But are you still willing to marry me......

In the end, Xu Ying obviously lacked confidence.

He is willing to marry, but looking at the attitude of the painting brother, it seems that he does not plan to marry him......

When he returned home this time, his family was so happy that they held a banquet for several days to celebrate.

After celebrating, he hesitated to enter Beijing to take the entrance examination, and at the same time planned to come to the Shen family.

In the past few years when he has been taking the Xiucai test and lifting people, he has been living in the Shen family, and the Shen family treats him as his own son, and now that he has won the lift, he naturally wants to come to the Shen family to thank his uncle and aunt.

Moreover, no matter whether he participates in the examination or not, he has to propose to Shen Hua.
