After Xiao Liulang entered the examination room, Gu Jiao left with her backpack on her back.

She was going to the market to sell the wild mountain mushrooms and dried fungus in the basket, and then do something else.

Tianxiang Academy is well-known and many people come to take the exam, including locals, and other people with foreign household registration like Xiao Liulang.

Each reference person holds a letter of recommendation from the village, county or prefecture school in his hands and enters the corresponding examination room separately.

Due to different levels, Xiao Liulang and Gu Dashun were assigned to different examination rooms.

Xiao Liulang is in the last row.

Tianxiang Academy has a very high level, and generally those who come to study are at least scholars. It is not easy to get a scholar these days. For example, Gu Dashun passed the exam before he was less than 20.

Xiao Liulang is 17 years old and is the youngest among all candidates.

He is also the handsomest one.

Unfortunately, he is a cripple.

The candidates all looked at each other with strange eyes, but it did not last long and began to fill out the test papers.

Test poetry and essays in the morning and classics in the afternoon.

Most of the candidates who can come here have ink in their stomachs. It is not difficult for them to write some poems on the spot, but the difficult thing is the meaning of the afternoon scriptures.

The titles of the meaning of the scriptures are all derived from the original text of the Four Books and Five Classics, and candidates must strictly use the eight-legged essay.

The eight-part essay consists of eight parts: breaking the topic, following the topic, starting the lecture, starting, starting the stock, starting the stock, middle stock, back stock, and binding stock. It is not allowed to use the tone of the saint, and the annotation can only come from the Cheng-Zhu School, which has very great restrictions on candidates.

In addition, the questions were very difficult this time. After one day, the candidates' faces turned green.

When Xiao Liulang came out, his classmates had been waiting outside the examination room for half an hour.

"Liulang! Here!" He waved at Xiao Liulang.

Xiao Liulang walked over with a crutch.

My classmates said: "I just heard many people complain about the tricky questions of the Jingyi. Alas, you are also unlucky. The questions were personally given by the dean. If there was nothing wrong with you and you took the exam with me, it wouldn't be so difficult... It's all the blame for that bad woman!"

Xiao Liulang glanced at him and frowned.

The classmate continued, "By the way, she hasn't bullied you these days, right? I'm so worried that you won't be here again today."

Indeed... I almost couldn't come.

Xiao Liulang paused.

Suddenly, he didn't know what he felt, so he raised his head and looked forward.

Just now the exam was over, and there were people coming and going on the street at the entrance of the academy.

A small slim figure, carrying a small basket on his back, holding his arms with his hands, standing against the wall, a little careless.

Someone walked by her from time to time because her face casts all kinds of eyes at her, but she doesn't care at all, not angry, not annoyed, not shy, or embarrassed.

Soon, the classmate also saw Gu Jiao and frowned: "Ah! Why is she here? It's not here to cause trouble for you! To be honest, did you escape from your home today?"

In fact, Xiao Liulang was not sure if Gu Jiao came to find him, but only knew where she leaned against him, and she clearly looked like she was waiting for someone...

Perhaps there were so many candidates coming out, which finally attracted Gu Jiao's attention.

Gu Jiao turned her head and looked here. She saw the handsome boy in the crowd.

She smiled slightly and walked towards Xiao Liulang.

"The exam is over," she said.

"Yes." Xiao Liulang nodded, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"No, either." Gu Jiao pulled her little ear and said.

"Didn't you go to the market? Why didn't you go home?" Xiao Liulang saw that her backpack contained fungus and wild mountain mushrooms, and knew that she would go to the market. But the market was closed at most noon.

"It just so happens that something is happening nearby." Gu Jiao said.

"What can you do?" the classmate rolled his eyes.

However, Gu Jiao's words reminded him.

He finished class early today and went to the clinic and found that Dr. Zhang was here again and saved a dying person.

"I'm sure it's Dr. Zhang?" Xiao Liulang was slightly stunned.

Last time the doctor made a fuss, Dr. Zhang also suffered some skin trauma. In fact, Dr. Zhang was not the one who cured the murderer's family. He was completely implicated, but he was so angry that he said harsh words and never came for the rest of his life.

The classmate said confidently: "Of course! I saw the man being carried in with my own eyes, covered in blood, his neck was crooked, and his anger was gone. Except for Dr. Zhang from the capital, who else could save him?"

Gu Jiao looked at the little ant on the ground silently without saying a word.

The classmate continued: "Doctor Zhang can even save such a person, and he will definitely cure your legs. You don't have to worry about these things. I will ask about the time Dr. Zhang will come to the hospital."

"When will you go?" Gu Jiao suddenly spoke.

The classmate looked at her with contempt: "Why should I tell you?"

Gu Jiao: "..."

The supper was eaten in the town, and my classmates insisted on taking Xiao Liulang to taste the Yangchun noodles near the academy, saying that it tasted like a hometown.

After dinner, Xiao Liulang and Gu Jiao took a mule cart back to the village. This time, Xiao Liulang asked for a carriage.

Night fell completely, there were no oil lamps in the carriage, but bright moonlight took advantage of the gap.

Gu Jiao sat opposite Xiao Liulang, stretched out her long legs, stretching her toes one after another.

She bought new shoes.

She is not an embroidered shoe worn by a wealthy family, but just a pair of cheap small cloth shoes, pure black upper, without any extra color, but unexpectedly looks very good on her feet.

She looks very well-behaved when playing with shoes, and her eyes are like stars breaking.

The mule cart is still parked at the entrance of the village.

After the two got off the car, Gu Jiao was still following him not far or near.

The story of Gu Jiao turning against Xiao Liulang and Gu Dashun has spread throughout the village. Xue Ningxiang specially guarded the door, but he saw the two walking from the night one after another.

Wasn't she dazzled last time?

Are these two really good?

"Gu fool!"

A sound broke the tranquility around him, and Xue Ningxiang turned back into the room.

Gu Jiao and Xiao Liulang stopped outside their homes, turned their heads and looked at the young man who was walking towards them. It was Gu Ershun, the second wife of the Gu family.

Gu Ershun and Gu Xiaoshun were both born by Liu, but compared to their younger brothers, Gu Ershun has always been closer to Gu Dashun's cousin.

Gu Jiao just glanced lightly and looked away, opened the lock, and entered the house with Xiao Liulang.

Gu Dashun walked over with great strides, stood at the door with his hips on his hips, and said angrily: "Gu Sha Zi, I think you are so upset. You dare to treat your elder brother like this! Do you know that you almost delayed your elder brother's exam! You also made your elder brother shameless in front of the whole village!"

Don’t listen or not, chant the scriptures.

Gu Jiao crossed the threshold and wanted to close the door.

Seeing that she ignored her, Gu Ershun was furious and stepped into the house and supported the door panel with one hand: "Dare you? Grandpa asked me to come to find you! You should hurry up and kowtow to your elder brother and admit your mistake! Otherwise I will beat you to death!"

Gu Jiao pulled her little ear impatiently.

bother.

"Did you hear it? If you don't understand this matter today, don't think about it..."

He was halfway through.

Gu Jiao raised her feet and flew him out with one kick!
