As for gaining fame before taking the test, Zhou Lan didn't dare to think about it.
The capital is so big, it would be great if he could protect his family well and not be used as a stepping stone for others.
It's not his turn to be in the limelight, and he's afraid of being photographed to death. In the capital, he is not a powerful person, let alone a local snake.
Regardless of who invited the party or what the reason was, Zhou Lan did not attend any gathering. You cannot be too careful.
Even Li Langjun and Xu Xiaolangjun were like this. The lessons learned from Baoding Mansion were enough for them to remember.
Zhou Lan went to Cousin Lin's academy, where he met old friends and master and apprentice went in and out together.
Chang Le took advantage of the opportunity and went to his grandfather's house again. Although his cousin there did not study with him, he had many different things to do, which Chang Le had never seen before. Chang Le didn't pay much attention to his studies these days.
The eldest disciple came to the examination and had no time to deal with the younger disciple. Guang Leng watched the younger disciple jumping around happily, but he wrote everything down in his notebook.
That day, my husband saw the interest in chatting with old friends and couldn't get away for a while. Zhou Lan went back home first, and of course cousin Lin followed.
After returning from college, the two brothers had many academic issues to discuss. During this time, the cousins always met like this. They didn't mention anything else but just talked about their studies.
Feeling grateful for the Lin family's care for her family, Jiang Changxi asked Dagui to cook and added two dishes. The dinner was very enjoyable.
Cousin Lin advised his younger cousin: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. I don't see anyone studying. If you are like you, you can't even leave the house."
Zhou Lan smiled and said, "The main reason is that there are still some shortcomings in reading too much. If I am as confident as my cousin, I don't have to sharpen my guns in battle."
Cousin Lin: "We brothers don't know each other, do you have the right to say this? I've been obsessed with studying since I was a child. You didn't delay in playing, and you never fell behind in your studies. Otherwise, why would my uncle dote on you so much?"
Zhou Lan: "Stop talking, it will make people laugh. There are people outside the world, but I am just clever. It's because my father is spoiling me and is reluctant to deal with me."
Cousin Lin: "I must be used to it, but not all of it." My cousin is really smart and can learn anything quickly.
Zhou Lan burst into laughter: "Cousin, if you have time to see how Chang Le studies, I won't think that my little brother is smart. It's very shocking."
Cousin Lin: "Forget it, I don't have to find someone to beat myself up. I have been with you since I was a child, and the shadow in my heart is big enough."
Zhou Lan also laughed and said to his cousin Lin in a low voice: "I'm also under a lot of pressure."
I finally found the feeling of sharing secrets with cousins when they were young. With such a brother-in-law rubbing his back and rushing, no wonder my cousin works so hard in studying.
Cousin Lin: "It's really shameful to let my brother-in-law crush you. You'd better study hard."
Zhou Lan was very depressed, even if there was no comfort, why did he still sound like he was ridiculing himself?
Cousin Lin was happy and drank a few more drinks. Zhou Lan, the accompanying guest, naturally drank too.
After sending away Cousin Lin, Zhou Lan finally returned to his yard. It was rare that he was not afraid of his wife's spiritual invasion and disrupting his mind today.
Jiang Changxi was surprised to see Zhou Lan: "Uncle Zhou must have gone to the wrong place."
Everyone in Dali laughed too, but Grandma was really resentful.
Zhou Lan glanced sideways at Dali. The girl was so expressionless and said smoothly: "Dali, Sui Feng is looking for you outside."
Dali pointed at his nose: "Suifeng, are you looking for a slave? What will happen?" Then he went out.
Zhou Lan closed the door neatly, then went over and put his head on his wife's shoulder: "I miss you so much."
If it weren't for the fact that he could meet him if he walked more than ten steps, Jiang Changxi would almost believe this nonsense.
He said sarcastically: "That's because the uncle and I are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, so it's inconvenient to see each other. I can only miss you."
Zhou Lan snorted, then burst into laughter. Knowing that his wife missed him, his mood instantly overcame him, and he said in his wife's ear: "I don't dare to come over, because I'm afraid that you won't be able to learn." These words and this atmosphere made Zhou stunned.
Lan made Jiang Changxi's head turn into a warm and sunny color.
Jiang Chang rolled his eyes angrily, am I a goblin, but his tone was soft: "Hurry up, don't dare to delay the uncle's study."
Pushing Zhou Lan's big head away, he blushed and said in disgust: "It tastes like wine."
Zhou Lanlai stood next to Chang Xi as if he had no bones: "How can you dislike me?"
A ruthless man, I don't want to care that you are not.
Zhou Lan held on to his wife and refused to let go, his intention was very obvious.
Jiang Changxi was already preparing for pregnancy, and she didn't like the drunk Zhou Lan. She raised her hand and pulled him away: "Drunk people are not rare."
Zhou Lan: "My cousin drank it, but I didn't drink it. It smells like clothes." As he said this, he tore off his clothes, which made his wife feel disgusted.
That's impossible. She hasn't counted how many drinks someone sent her. That's enough for one person to drink.
Zhou Lan: "Really, I just stayed with my cousin and kissed my lips. I haven't counted in my heart yet?"
Damn it, if you really knew it, you wouldn't have delayed your studies and come here to meet a female demon. Bah, bah, bah, how did you get yourself involved?
Forget it, Jiang Changxi had two mothers and two aunts staring at her belly to encourage her to give birth, which made her feel like she was hopeless.
Otherwise, why don't she go out to play? She has to say that her husband is studying and she can't leave. Aren't they afraid of them?
Zhou Lan really didn't count. He must have drank a lot, but it wasn't much.
And during this time of studying in seclusion, I really miss my wife. I want to give myself a holiday.
Jiang Changxi relented so much that when Dali came back, it would be difficult to enter the house.
Looking at the door angrily, the uncle was getting more and more promising. He actually tricked her out of the house just for this matter. Suifeng didn't even look for her.
Early the next morning, Zhou Lan kissed his wife's face and didn't even stay in his yard to eat. He went to retreat to study hard again.
When Jiang Changxi woke up, there was no one around her and the bedding was cold. It was a lonely day.
I feel like why am I so arrogant? It must be because someone has used it. I still don’t miss it much.
The teacher was also wondering why he didn't come back all night. This disciple was studying this morning and was more energetic. Could it be that he found motivation in someone else's academy yesterday.
It was not easy to ask too many questions. It was very rare to be able to study seriously at this time, so I started to answer questions as usual.
Of course, sir, I have been out for a while and found out a lot of information. How is Jieyuan from Jiangnan, his articles, and how popular is Jieyuan here in the capital?
Zhou Lan and Xu Xiaolang felt sad after hearing this. There are so many talents, it is not easy to get ahead.
The main teacher also told the disciples about the conditions at Gongyuan, so that the disciples could be mentally prepared.
The single-person cubicle is more than one meter wide, with walls on three sides, so you can sleep curled up at night.
