Within a few years, Zhao Changde died of depression, and the Wang family lived alone with Zhao Fuxin, although it was hard, but one or two silver a month could barely be maintained. When Zhao Fuxin was about to take the imperial examination at the age of sixteen, Wang was already full of gray hair. Zhao Fuxin is a sensible child, knowing that his home has been changed by his own imperial examination, he wants his mother to live a good life, and he no longer has to look at his uncle's face. My mother used to say,

"You have to study hard and be a talented person like your father."

"I will definitely live up to my mother's expectations, I want to get ahead. ”

Zhao Fuxin secretly made up his mind in his heart.

After years of hard study, passing the state test is no longer a problem, and Zhao Fuxin's name unexpectedly appeared on the list when the state test was released.

"Great, you can prepare to take the provincial exam next year. ”

Zhao Fuxin's brother Da Niu said excitedly.

"I already knew I could pass, what's the joy, let's go swim in the river, it's still a little hot. ”

"How can it be used for swimming at such a good time, let's go, let's go to Uncle Li's for a drink!"

Zhao Fuxin can't resist Da Niu, because Da Niu is a head taller than Zhao Fuxin, and his body is strong, which is really worthy of his name. And although Zhao Fuxin's body is taller than ordinary people and his body is sturdy, it is really much worse than that of a big bull.

In the evening, Xiangyang City was bustling and prosperous, accompanied by the afterglow of the sunset, Zhao Fuxin looked at the magnificent pavilions and the endless crowds on both sides of the road, and couldn't help but say with feeling:

"The car is like flowing water, the horse is like a dragon, and the flower moon is in the spring breeze. ”

But with a light sigh, at this time, a middle-aged man wearing a green cloth coat and a two-foot knife happened to pass by, glanced at Zhao Fuxin meaningfully, and hurriedly left. The big bull turned around and pulled him forward, and said:

"Let's go, don't hurry up and there will be no place for a while. ”

This Uncle Li's tavern is not as good as the business that Da Niu said, not only is it not so good but also very ordinary, because Uncle Li's temper is very strange, and he may not sell it if the guests want to buy wine. Uncle Li's "watching people sell wine" is still a bit famous in Xiangyang City, and he can see at a glance that Uncle Li will not sell these people's wine. So the people who came to him to drink were measured by his eyes, and he barely missed it. Uncle Li also has a strange habit, when the guest's wine is almost drunk, the guest will not give the wine again, which makes some guests feel very unhappy, how can there be a drink that is not enjoyable, but according to Uncle Li, drinking is not drunk will be drunk is fun. But this is not understood by many people, so people who don't understand don't come, so Uncle Li has fewer guests, but he doesn't care much about the number of guests, he is leisurely every day, and he doesn't seem to worry about the few guests.
