Chapter 263: Bitter first, then sweet

The bustle in front of the Jizhou Guild Hall lasted for a long time, and among the constant congratulations, many people came up to ask for a piece of Song Mu's calligraphy.

Today was really a grand day, and Song Mu didn't want to ruin the scenery, so he naturally wrote a few auspicious words and gave gifts to the children brought in by their parents.

The only thing Song Mu wrote on his own initiative was to write a plaque for the Jizhou Guild Hall.

The last time Jizhou Prefecture had a student named Jieyuan was more than forty years ago. At that time, the guild hall had not yet been built. Now, Song Mu can be regarded as giving Shopkeeper Mo an honor.

On this day, news of the rural examination spread all over the city, and among them, the most widely spread and popular ones were Song Mu's articles and poems.

In the afternoon, Song Mu's "Shui Diao Ge Tou" and "Serving the Country" suddenly spread, and the sentences in them have been praised again and again.

In addition, Song Mu's "Youth Stories" has also been copied, and it has become a favorite among young students in an instant.

Almost every sentence in it directly touched the hearts of many young people, making everyone feel that only young people of the same age like Song Mu could understand what the young man was thinking.

As a result, Song Mu once again ascended to a higher status in the hearts of the young students.

After a short period of silence, Song Mu once again stood at the forefront of the storm on the day the results were released.

Song Mu, who had been busy all morning, could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Now he was resting in the room and looking at the plaque of Jieyuan placed on one side.

In a few days, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, these things will be sent back to Jizhou Prefecture.

And presumably at that time, my uncle and aunt who were far away in Jizhou Prefecture also knew about this matter.

In his hometown of Shiyang County, a Jieyuan archway will also be erected, with his literary achievements engraved on the archway, and the street of his old house will also be transformed.

Song Mu couldn't calm down for a long time. He was even pacing in the room, wanting to write something down, but he didn't know how to start.

I wanted to say something to Tao Fengming, but he was already called away by Xiao Li today.

Today, Tao Fengming's telepathy not only helped Song Mu frighten the Song family, but also allowed Song Mu to successfully complete all the tasks of worshiping his ancestors.

Today's Tao Fengming even dotes on Song Muduo.

Song Mu thought about it in the room, and finally sat down, took out the book Xu Yuncai gave him, and began to read it.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door, and a boy brought two posts to Song Mu.

One is a joint invitation from the provincial government and the academic government, inviting all the students who passed the provincial examination to attend the Luming Banquet at Prince Teng's Pavilion on the Mid-Autumn Festival evening.

But the other post is from Yuyinfang.

Song Mu was surprised at the moment. He opened it and looked at it. Most of them contained a few words of congratulations, but there was also a line of small words at the end.

"The matter in the west of the city has made progress. Please come and talk about it tomorrow."

Song Mu was dumbfounded, but he was also a little excited at the moment.

The matter in the west of the city is naturally about those guys who attacked inexplicably.

Although Song Mu already had some speculations about this matter, he was almost certain that this matter must be related to the Song family.

But after all, it was just my own guess. Without concrete evidence, I couldn't mess around with anything.

This is also why although Song Mu did some powerful actions at the Song Ancestral Hall today, he did not get into a big fight. In the final analysis, there is still something missing in this matter.

They gave this reason and they still need to wait for a while before they can make better use of it.

Song Mu thought this, and immediately kept this matter in mind, preparing to go and see what the situation was like.

Not long after, someone knocked on the door again.

Fu Zefeng and others came to Song Mu at this moment and asked Song Mu to go out for a drink today.

Although Fu Zefeng lost his reputation to Sun Shan this time, he was not discouraged. On the contrary, he was truly happy for Song Mu and others, and he was the one who invited this wine party.

Song Mu naturally nodded happily, and there were many students from Jizhou Prefecture who were also going there, including Sun Fang and Ge Long.

Everyone had made an appointment to have dinner at Tingxuan Pavilion in the city, and everyone was dressed up to attend. Song Mu immediately looked at the examination uniform he was wearing, and wanted to change it, but Fu Zefeng pulled him out.

Just go outside.

It was still mid-afternoon, and the sun was still high in the sky, but the faces of the people traveling with us all had smiles on their faces. They were talking and laughing along the way. A group of handsome young men chatted and laughed happily, which also attracted many people's side glances from time to time.

When Song Mu and others arrived at Tingxuan Pavilion, the shopkeeper of Tingxuan Pavilion heard that Jie Yuan came here to eat, and even came out to greet them personally. He even gave them a few extra dishes, which made Song Muduo a little embarrassed.

.

But then everyone exchanged cups and cups, and everyone was talking happily.

"Brother Song, your article "The Story of Youth" is so good. I stood under the list and read it several times. Even if I broke my thigh, I couldn't write such an article!"

"Yes, a strong young man will make a country strong. This method of solving the problem is simply astonishing. No wonder Brother Song was able to trigger that shocking vision!"

"After today, this article will probably be praised for eternity."

Everyone sighed. Song Mu sipped the tea, a little embarrassed. If others said it, Song Mu would just accept it happily.

But everyone is so familiar with each other, so talking like this makes people feel a bit embarrassed.

However, Fu Zefeng didn't care about this at all. He waved his chopsticks and spoke to Song Mu boldly.

"Junior brother Song, not to mention so much, this time you won the Xie Yuan, but I want to kill you. There are also your daily calligraphy scripts. I want a copy of whatever you want, and give it to my brother to hide it.

Let’s go.”

As soon as he said this, others followed suit and asked questions again and again.

This feeling made Song Mu feel a lot more comfortable. Song Mu grinned and nodded, and he responded one by one, making the atmosphere in the venue a little more lively.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone had become completely lively. After all, they had worked so hard to prepare for the exam, and now that the dust has settled, it’s not an exaggeration for everyone to relax.

Everyone stopped drinking and throwing chopsticks, and cheered loudly. Song Mu took the time to go to the toilet, and then went to pay for the meal.

Just as he was about to go upstairs, Song Mu, who was slightly tipsy after drinking two glasses of wine, suddenly heard someone selling candy outside.

Song Muben had never felt anything about this, but at this moment, he stopped for some reason. He thought of the weird girl at home, and felt his tongue was wet. At this moment, he turned around and walked outside.

Stopping the old man who was carrying the burden, Song Mu handed over ten copper coins and asked him to knock off a large piece of candy.

"Master, let's have a taste. It's very sweet. It's all made from good wheat."

The old man counted the copper plates carefully and said with a smile. Song Mu nodded. At this moment, he also gently broke off a small piece, then put it into his mouth and tasted it gently.

The subtle sweetness gently entered the inside, making people feel sweet in the heart, and Song Mu was lingering for a while.

He even remembered the first time he woke up in this world, the sweetness of the caramel in his mouth after drinking the medicine.

It tastes bitter first and then sweet, no matter how many times you taste it, it will never leave you.

Song Mu opened his eyes and was about to spend more money to buy some more, but a crisp voice slowly sounded next to him.

"Old man, give me a piece too."

A slender jade hand stretched out from the side, and bursts of fragrant wind blew towards his face. Song Mu raised his head and looked at the delicate profile in front of him, and was suddenly startled.
