Restaurants

The young man glanced at it, and saw that he had scared off Boss Zhang, and he immediately became the focus of attention, and he didn't want to attract attention, so he got up directly and said, "That's it, the interest is exhausted, this wine can't be drunk, let's go, go to Xinlu Tea Shop to buy some tea." ”

That's an excuse to leave.

"Stay two. Su Ziji didn't want to take advantage, so he was even more grateful for helping, and got up and bowed to the two: "A good word is warm in winter, not to mention the money to help, I am really grateful, I don't know if I can leave my honorable name and address, and I will return the silver two when I turn around." ”

The young man looked back, his eyes fell on Su Ziji's face, he looked at it slightly, and remembered that no one knew him, so he didn't have to worry about it, he just smiled.

"No need, Taizu once said that those who are itchy are all the stars of Qi Min, and they are free from miscellaneous errands, supplemented by food and clothing, so that they can concentrate on their work. ”

"A mere five taels of silver, for us, it's just a casual matter, if you are grateful, you can study hard, if you can be an official in the future, be a good official!

As he spoke, the young man waved his hand and followed the middle-aged man out of the restaurant.

"Be a good official?" Because of the speculation about the identities of the two, Su Ziji didn't catch up and ask again, and turned around: "Fellow students, I helped you just now, and I made up enough twelve taels, and the younger brother is grateful, and I ask you to leave a name post, and you will have more contacts in the future." ”

Several students in the restaurant resigned again and again, but Su Ziji still borrowed pen and paper, wrote an IOU, handed it to them, and thanked them again.

After this incident, Yu Lu and Zhang Sheng didn't have the heart to celebrate immediately.

Zhang Sheng simply proposed: "It's better to make an appointment tomorrow and have a small gathering, I can't even drink wine now, and I can't wait to go back to sleep." ”

Because of the exam, my spirit has been tense, and now when I relax, it really makes people feel tired, not to mention a person like him who didn't win, and I am even more disappointed in my heart.

"Good. ”

"It's up to you. ”

The atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward, Su Ziji was slightly silent, made an appointment with the time and place, left the restaurant, and went home separately.

On the way back, Su Ziji was still looking at the beginning, in case Boss Zhang was looking for trouble, but when he turned the street, he shook his head and came to his senses, feeling that he was thinking too stupidly about Boss Zhang.

"I'm afraid of those two, and I'm afraid they won't do anything to me before they leave this Linhua County. ”

"The deterrent power of the government is really good, but this fox fake tiger is a bit unreliable, I want to win the show as soon as possible." ”

Su Ziji didn't go home immediately, but went to Ye's bookstore and told him about being a child.

"If you can be a child, I will be relieved. Ye Weihan actually looks good, but his face is yellow, and he coughs from time to time, and when he hears this, he suddenly shows some joy, looks at Ye Buregret, and says, "We have to celebrate and celebrate." ”

Ye Buregret was a little hesitant, there was not much money in the family, and there was still money to buy medicine, and there were additional expenses?

Su Ziji turned sideways slightly, and said, "I've already celebrated, and I came back from the banquet, Uncle Ye, there is something for you, you can tell me about it." ”

I said it one by one at the moment.

Ye Weihan listened, thought about it carefully, suddenly shook his body, and hurriedly reached out to support the wall, while Su Ziji was faster and helped up: "Uncle Ye, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, I was in a trance for a while. Ye Weihan straightened his waist and coughed lightly twice: "The official silver is all in the province and the household department, and it will be cut when it is used, and it is used for consumption, but it is not an ordinary person." ”

"You've met a nobleman. Ye Weihan smiled.

Su Ziji listened, breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "I think so too, but this noble person's favor is not easy to accept!"

I am afraid that these five taels of silver will be difficult to settle in the future with five hundred taels or five thousand taels.

"It doesn't matter, when you can return the favor, you don't care about that. Ye Weihan patted his shoulder: "Since you have already eaten, then I won't keep you, the county test is once a year, the government test is once every two years, this year it will be held in April, only about 25 people will be taken in a county, you have to take the test carefully." ”

"Then you come over once, and I'll send you. ”

"Yes, I will work hard!" Su Ziji felt a little surprised, it seemed that Ye Weihan was a little bit of a rush, but he felt that he was thinking too much, turned around and left, and when he left, Ye Weihan went inside, and saw Ye Buregret folding clothes, and sighed lightly: "No regrets, you were a little unhappy just now?"

"No, I didn't!" Ye Buregret refused to admit it, seeing his father's gaze, he whispered for a long time: "Yes, I'm a little aggrieved." ”

"Su Zi has been born as a child, when can I go to the chess competition?" Ye Buregret said with a small face, looking stubborn, he was obviously good at chess, but his father still didn't allow him to take the test.

She didn't want to be opened up by Su Ziji.

Ye Weihan looked at her in a daze, this is his cherished daughter, at this time, it seems that a posture overlaps with her, so unwilling to live under others, he understands very well, but ......

Turning his mind, a layer of shadow hit his heart: "There is a noble person who came to this small place in Hua County, is this an accident?"

As soon as he thought of this, he suddenly coughed violently.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Ye Buregret hurriedly went up to help, thinking that his stubbornness had made his father angry, and tears suddenly came out: "Dad, if you don't like it, I won't go ......"

"No, go ahead, go to the competition this year. Ye Weihan stopped coughing and said suddenly.

No matter how reluctant she is, it's time for her to spread her wings and fly high.

Out of Ye's bookstore, walking on the street where there were fewer and fewer people due to the late sky, Su Ziji didn't know the follow-up in the store, he was in a very happy mood and smiled.

"On that day, the girl in the temple said that talent can suppress bad luck, but it was fulfilled, could it be that she came to help my ghosts and gods?"

However, just think about it casually, there was nothing to say that night, and the next day he changed into clean clothes, and Su Ziji went to the place where Yu Lu invited guests as promised, not the original restaurant, but a small restaurant next to the city gate.

Not far away scattered raindrops, finally no more snow, the façade is not big, two rooms set up six tables, all lit with soybean oil lamps, sparsely scattered only three tables of guests drinking and chatting.

"On the pot of wine!" Yu Lu had already arrived, sitting at a table by the door, and when he saw someone coming, he greeted: "On the dish I ordered." ”

The guy smiled and agreed, and in a blink of an eye, he brought a tray, braised carp, fried shredded pork with mushrooms, and spiced peanuts, not that Yu Lu was reluctant to pay, but the food here was good, and he could also have dealings with Su Ziji, so he didn't have to spend too much to make Su Ziji's debtors embarrassed.

Su Ziji naturally appreciated it, and when Zhang Sheng also arrived, the wine of the three of them was warm, and they drank a glass, and saw Yu Lu looking at a passing ox cart through the open window for a moment, and then his face was worried, Su Ziji asked curiously: "Brother Yu, what difficulties have you encountered?"

Yu Lu has just won the county case, and according to his habit, he must be successful in the government test, it is when the spring breeze is proud, and his family is good, so he doesn't worry about expenses, why is his face sad?

Yu Lu smiled bitterly: "It's a bit of a family matter, but it doesn't matter, and it will cause you more trouble if you say it." ”
