An hour passed quickly, Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong did not wait too long at the gate of the temple, Xu Zhengqing, a scholar and several other classmates of Hangzhou Academy, gradually came out, and everyone returned to the ship together and set off back to Hangzhou.

In winter, the river level is gentle, and there are no storms or heavy rains, so the return journey is the same as when you came, and it is smooth and safe.

After three rather boring days and nights on board, the ship finally returned to the territory of Hangzhou Prefecture.

I don't know who spread the news, but when the boat docked at the wharf, there were a lot of people who came to greet them on the shore, and most of the students of Hangzhou Academy came.

They all looked at Xu Xian and the others with anticipation, and as soon as they walked ashore, someone couldn't wait to ask, "What is the result of this Jiangnan Talent Literary Meeting?"

For scholars, perhaps the Jiangnan Talent Literary Association is not as important as the imperial examination. Because the primary purpose of the scholars of the Dali Dynasty is to become an official and serve the court, and everything else is secondary.

But for the state capital and academy, the Jiangnan Talent Literary Association is much more important than the imperial examination.

The imperial examination only represents individuals, but the Caizi Wenhui can represent the honor of the academy and even the honor of the entire Hangzhou government.

This time, two geniuses, Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong, finally appeared in Hangzhou Mansion, and everyone was looking forward to a breakthrough in this Jiangnan Cultural Conference.

Fortunately, Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong not only won the title of Jiangnan genius, but also worshiped Confucianism, becoming a rare Confucian student in the entire Dali Dynasty!

When Xu Zhengqing announced the results with a smile, the crowd that came to greet him was boiling and excited. Among the three major talents in the south of the Yangtze River, Hangzhou Academy has accounted for two, and it is also the top two of the best, which has never been seen in many years!

Now the news of the Jiangnan Talent Literary Association has not yet been transmitted, and after some time, the major newspapers will definitely announce the results of the literary meeting.

At that time, the limelight of Hangzhou Academy will probably overshadow Jinling Academy!

Of course, Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong, who won the name of Jiangnan talents, will naturally spread throughout the Dali Dynasty and become the representative figures of Jiangnan students after Li Pan.

Therefore, the academy decided to hold a celebration banquet for Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong in the evening!

Hangzhou Academy feels that all the state colleges in Jiangnan should naturally celebrate.

Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong got off the boat together, accepted everyone's congratulations, and responded politely one by one.

But Fang Zhongyong, who has always been engrossed in doing things and has a single look, seemed a little careless at this time, and his attention was obviously attracted by other things. Xu Xian just glanced at him, then shook his head and understood.

What a boy who fell in love!

I saw that in the crowd of onlookers, there was a very cute and clever girl with a round face, who was looking at Fang Zhongyong with a smile, and Fang Zhongyong was absent-minded to others, precisely because most of his energy was focused on Peony.

I haven't seen him for many days, and I naturally miss it.

But now that so many people are watching, they will have to participate in the celebration banquet later, even if the two are close at hand, they can't whisper right away, and they have to wait until the evening to solve the pain of lovesickness.

"What a blessing!" Xu Xian still thought with some envy in his heart.

Fang Zhongyong will be able to relieve his lovesickness at night, but he will at least have to wait until next year's Qingming Festival.

Fortunately, it is now the eighteenth day of the lunar month, and there are still ten days to go before the Chinese New Year's Eve, and this year will pass.

The end of the year has passed, and the next year will be clear, will it be far away?

......

......

After the celebration banquet, it was time for Hangzhou Academy to have a holiday.

There are very few holidays in the academy, and there is no such thing as a holiday, only when students have something to do, they can ask for leave from the college teachers.

The only holiday of the year is this Chinese New Year's Eve. From the end of the year on the twentieth day of the lunar month, until the first month of the next year after the fifteenth Lantern Festival, the time is nearly a month.

The students of the academy left one after another, and Xu Xian and He Liang also returned to Qiantang County together after arranging many matters of Yuewei Bookstore.

Xu Jiaorong pondered that Xu Xian should be coming back two days ago, so while preparing a lot of New Year's goods, she also specially bought two old hens for Xu Xian, preparing to boil chicken soup for Xu Xian to drink after Xu Xian came back, so as to replenish his body.

No matter whether she is married or not, no matter how old Xu Xian is or how promising she is, in Xu Jiaorong's heart, Xu Xian's position will never change, and she is still the object she needs to take care of as a sister.

Regarding the experience of Jinling City, Xu Jiaorong didn't ask too much, and after knowing that Xu Xian had won the name of a genius in Jiangnan, he went to cook with a smile. After her younger brother opened up, her reading became more and more powerful, even if she became the first talent in the world in the future, she took it for granted, not to mention the first talent in Jiangnan?

It was Li Gongfu, who drank tea with Xu Xian and chatted a lot about Jinling City.

Big men are always in the Quartet, and there will always be curiosity about the outside world, Jinling City, as the most prosperous city in the south of the Yangtze River, was once the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, and Li Gongfu was also very curious.

"Now my brother-in-law is a little envious of you scholars. It's really good to read 10,000 books and travel 10,000 miles!" Li Gongfu sighed. After speaking, he glanced at Xu Jiaorong, who was busy, shook his head again, and said happily: "However, after I married your sister, my heart was almost filled! Although the outside world is wonderful, it is not very attractive to me." ”

Xu Xian also smiled slightly when he saw this.

This should be the best way to live, right?

When you meet the lady, will you have such a mind?

Just when Xu Xian was a little immersed, Li Gongfu suddenly turned his head sideways and whispered a little sneakily: "By the way, Hanwen, there is something I want to tell you, you have to be a little mentally prepared." ”

Xu Xian was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Your sister is starting to prepare to introduce you to someone, and she intends to let you get married and start a family. Li Gongfu said with a smile, with a bit of schadenfreude in his words.

Xu Xian was shocked and said in surprise: "Didn't my sister tell me that she would wait two years to talk about this issue?"

Li Gongfu shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Your sister did think so. But I can't bear the Chinese language, you are too famous, and you have become the most ideal person for unmarried girls in the entire Qiantang County and even in Hangzhou, and people come to your sister every day to tell you a matchmaker. ”

"But my sister said she wouldn't be tempted!"

"Ordinary vulgar fans, your sister will naturally not be tempted. But this time, the girl is very good in all aspects, and your sister can't help but be tempted, and she has already made up her mind to match you. ”

Xu Xianton felt a headache.

It seems that things are not simple. He knew very well that once his sister Xu Jiaorong decided, it was not so easy to change.
