Tang Bohu came to the table and sat down.

Li Xue'er poured him wine and asked, "Aren't you planning to take the imperial examination?" ”

"Imperial examinations?" Tang Bohu laughed and muttered, "What is the imperial examination for? ”

"That's a lot, to put it bigger, for the country and the people; To put it mildly, the glory of the ancestors, the ...... of the wife and the son" Li Xue'er saw that his face was getting more and more gray, and said in surprise, "Isn't it right?" ”

The corners of Tang Bohu's mouth pulled up bitterness, and he sighed: "Yes, it's all right." ”

"Then why do you ......," Li Xue'er said, "why don't you want to think about your parents?" ”

She blushed when she said this, and she was self-willed.

However, Li Xueer felt that Tang Bohu, the head of the four talents in Wuzhong, would be too wasteful if he continued to be so decadent.

"They died." Tang Bohu took a sip of wine.

"I'm sorry," Li Xue'er sneered, hurriedly poured him another glass, and comforted, "The deceased is gone, the living are like this, you ...... You should have married and had children a long time ago, think about them......"

"They also died." Tang Bohu took another sip of wine.

"Huh?"

Li Xue'er opened her mouth wide in surprise, unable to speak.

It's not that she's poor at words, but that any words of comfort seem pale when anyone encounters such a thing.

Tang Bohu picked up the wine jug, poured himself wine, and drank it all.

When the glass was poured over and swirled around the table, he murmured:

"My father is dead, my mother is dead, my sister is dead, my wife and children are dead, and I am sorry that I am also fated......"

"Brother Tai ......"

"There are many misfortunes, sorrow and chaos, parents and wives, tiptoeing away, and the funeral car is repeatedly ......" Tang Bohu's melancholy eyes slowly closed, and he dreamed and fell asleep.

Li Xue'er looked at it in a daze, and didn't know what to do for a while?

has the heart to leave, but she is afraid that Tang Bohu will do something bad, even if she is not the head of Wu Zhong's four talents, or a passerby, she is not good to stand by.

Of course, the main thing is that Li Xueer can be sure that Tang Bohu will not be unfavorable to her.

In the case of guaranteeing herself, do some good things within her ability, Li Xueer will naturally not be troublesome.

"It's really ...... that a great talent in Jiangnan has fallen to this point Pitiful. Li Xue'er shook her head and sighed.

Should I say it or not, such a Tang Bohu is very far from the big talent in her mind, and even ...... She was disappointed.

But then again, in the event of such a change, no one will be much better.

Tang Bohu doesn't seek death, he can be called strong.

…

The afternoon sun in late spring was scorching, and Tang Bohu's eyelids blinked and opened his hazy eyes.

When he raised his eyes and saw Li Xue'er, he was stunned for a while before he remembered that the two of them were drinking.

"Little brother hasn't left?"

"You and I drink together, in case something happens to you, it's my responsibility." Li Xue'er snorted, "I don't want to be wanted by the government. ”

Tang Bohu was stunned for a moment, nodded with a wry smile: "Now the little brother can rest assured, I'm fine." ”

"Huh...... Not necessarily, right? ”

"Even if there is something, it has nothing to do with you." Tang Bohu said, "Little brother doesn't need to be tired of Tang, but it's okay to go." ”

Li Xue'er nodded, took out half a hanging coin, counted out twenty wen, and said, "Wine money." ”

"No need, even if Tang invited you, the little brother should leave some money for the imperial examination." Tang Bohu looked at him worriedly, obviously, a strong sleep would not kill the wine.

"I don't like to take advantage of others." Li Xue'er left the money and teased, "Anyway, your tavern business is very bad." ”

Tang Bohu laughed at himself: "Yes, I studied when I was a child, I didn't know the streets and alleys outside the door, I didn't ask about production, why did I die, I talked about it and laughed......"

After a pause, he added: "It's not bad." ”

Li Xueer was speechless.

After a while, he said: "Man, standing at thirty, how can he give up on himself when he encounters a setback?" If a husband has no wife, if he wastes his life like this, he is not only sorry for his parents' spirit in the sky, but also sorry for his own talent. ”

After speaking, Li Xueer got up: "Xiaosheng is also from Jiangnan, and he yearns for the four talents in Wuzhong, but when I saw the head of the four talents today, I was disappointed and said goodbye!" ”

"Little brother, slow down."

Li Xue'er paused, "What?" ”

Tang Bohu smiled bitterly: "Tang is indeed unbearable, however, the other three live up to their name, and the little brother Mo looks down on them because of Tang." ”

"Not really, an individual is a person, and someone else is a person." Li Xue'er said with a smile, "However, after meeting Tang Dacai, Xiaosheng is not very interested in Wu Zhongsi's talent. ”

paused, "Seeing each other is fate, Xiaosheng sent Brother Tai a piece of advice, it's up to you whether you listen to it or not." ”

She said:

"If you want to comfort the soul of your parents, you can study hard and gain fame; If you have no intention of fame, you can also be a businessman;

If neither of them wants to ......, it is also a kind of life to sell their property and enjoy the mountains and rivers. ”

"The above three, no matter which one, are better than getting drunk and dreaming of death right now, aren't they?" Li Xue'er asked, "Can you escape for the rest of your life?" ”

Tang Bohu was silent for a long time, and then took a long look, "Thank you." ”

"No thanks, I said this for the sake of the face of the head of the four great talents in Jiangnan." Li Xue'er put a small bamboo basket on her back, "Farewell." ”

"Little brother, slow down."

"What are you going to do?" Li Xueer was a little impatient.

"Scholars from poor families, the imperial examination is not easy." Tang Bohu quickly walked to the counter, took out two ingots of excellent snowflake silver, and said, "The little brother is weak, take it to buy some delicious food to replenish his body, he is very energetic when he reads, and he can't do it without a good body." ”

Judging from Li Xue'er by a man's standards, she has thin arms and legs, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is weak.

Li Xue'er's face was full of black lines, and she snorted: "No need, just your wine shop business, you may not be able to make so much money in a month, keep it for yourself." ”

Hearing this, Tang Bohu was even more moved, and said: "The little brother is kind-hearted and has extraordinary words, and in the future, he will definitely be able to be a champion in high school and be a good official for the country and the people." ”

I'm a woman, what kind of champion is in the exam, and it's almost the same to find a champion husband...... Li Xue'er rolled her eyes and said: "Good intentions, but don't use it." ”

"Little brother doesn't have to excuse himself, Tang has a lot of money, and this money is nothing." Tang Bohu is quite bold, and faintly, he seems to have a trace of the demeanor of the head of the four talents.

Li Xue'er pouted her lips beautifully, and said, "Xiaosheng's family is not poor, you should keep it for your daughter-in-law." ”

Tang Bohu smiled dumbly, "The way I look now, which young lady can see it?" ”

"You don't have to be so presumptuous, what if?" Li Xue'er smiled, and then said, "As long as the two are happy, why do you have to be a big lady?" ”

Tang Bohu smiled.

was told by Li Xue'er, he was much more cheerful, and quipped: "The little brother can see through now, and when it comes to the wedding, I'm afraid I don't want to marry a rough peasant woman, right?" ”

Li Xue'er blushed and snorted, "Of course I don't want to compromise." ”

Tang Bohu: "......"

Dare to talk for a long time, this guy is standing and talking without backache...... Tang Bohu smiled bitterly, but now he feels much better and has a goal in life.

"Anyway, thank you for today." Tang Bohu said seriously, "Listening to your words, it is better to study for ten years, and these silver should be regarded as tuition fees." ”

said, whether Li Xue'er wanted it or not, she was stunned and stuffed the silver into her hand.

In other words, the little brother's hand is quite soft.

Tang Bohu inexplicably came up with this thought.

But seeing that the little brother was a little annoyed, he glanced at him fiercely, and said hatefully: "Rude, presumptuous." ”

“…… Is the little brother going to Jinling? ”

"No, I just came from Jinling." Li Xueer said, "Like you, I also 'don't know the streets and alleys outside the door', this time I came to enjoy the scenery and talents of Suzhou." ”

Tang Bohu's eyes lit up, "In that case, then why don't you let Brother Wei help you introduce one or two?" ”

"No need." Li Xue'er shook her head, "I'm in Su. I've been in the state for a while, and I've also appreciated the demeanor of a talented man, hehe, I'm very disappointed, time is precious, goodbye. ”

stabbed Tang Bohu hard, and Li Xue'er left comfortably.

Her time is truly precious.

Running away from home is too much, how can you not go back all year round?

…

More than ten days later, Hangzhou.

Li Xueer wandered around the West Lake, tasted the food, and had so much fun that she forgot the purpose of coming out.

She is not a young lady who does not go out of the door, but she is also limited to Jinling City, and she is the first time she goes out of the door, she sees everything strangely, and feels that everything is fun.

Even, she felt that this kiss was not indispensable.

In Grandpa Li's words, it is not too late for a woman to consider marrying after the age of twenty, and having a child at the age of thirty is not considered old.

Using Grandpa Li's way of calculating age, she is not yet twenty years old, so what's the hurry?

No hurry, no need to rush at all...... Li Xueer let go of the play.

"Ahh

Li Qing touched his nose and said to himself: "I don't know if Xiao Xue'er has chosen Ruyi Langjun, is it really ...... Alas, I'm afraid I can't eat this table. ”

Zhu Qijin saw that he had finished touching his nose and taking the needle, and hurriedly said, "Sir, you should wash your hands and do acupuncture." ”

"It's not dirty."

"Wash and wash...... It's always okay, right? Zhu Qijin was really panicked.

"Okay, okay." Li Qing was helpless, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and began to apply needles, while saying, "I am a person who counts, you know this, your grandfather was ...... I can do it all. ”

After a pause, he said the real purpose, "I may not be so punctual in the future, but you can rest assured that the error will not exceed two years." ”

Zhu Qijin was speechless: "You are early this time, and you are late this time, how much will it affect the recuperation effect, can you have a little concept of time!" ”

"Hey? What's your attitude? Li Qing brushed his face and snorted, "Also, next time I dare to raise the price, you see if I can't tie you." ”

"What's my attitude? It's your ......."

"Poof!"

…

…

Spring went to autumn, Li Qing ended his journey to Jiaozhi and returned to Daming......

It's almost, now that there are no fetters, it's time to implement what I wanted to do before.

After all...... Li Hong is not young, and the next generation of the Li family has no heart for the military.

The fleet of the Daming Navy Division has to be pulled out and slipped......
