Reading at night in Gaochu Mountain with a candle, Su Qiner's red sleeves add fragrance to the side.
That is probably the most beautiful story in Taoyuan Town.
The young scholar was dressed in coarse cloth, sitting on the corridor and looking at the book in his hand. The wind occasionally blew, mixed with petals, and fell on the pages of the book. He leaned quietly on his shoulder. The girl who accompanied him to study was always the first.
Time raises his hand to twist the petals.
The two of them were quiet, not saying a word, but they were better than countless people in the world.
However, the good times did not last long. Su's father fell ill, and the Su family's few savings were quickly spent. In order to provide Su's father with medical treatment, they sold their only small shop.
Su's father was still on the sickbed but had not yet improved. The doctor who came here had advised Su Qin'er and Gao Chushan to give up and prepare for the funeral as early as half a year ago. The doctor's remarks made the always elegant Gao Chushan furious that day and drove the doctor away with a broom.
Out of the house.
Gao Chushan Hanchuang studied hard for ten years and waited for that year to go to Beijing to take the exam. With his talent, it was no problem to be named on the gold list, but he did not hesitate to give up going to Beijing to take the exam that year and insisted on staying with Su Qin'er.
Take care of Su's father.
Gao Chushan had been observing filial piety for three years and had already missed a major exam. He had finally waited for this exam and had to wait another three years for giving up. He had no complaints. He even walked down the street in the town to see Su's father.
A table, selling words for a living.
Although they lived in poverty, Su Qin'er and Gao Chushan were very much in love. Su's father got better for a while, but it didn't last for two months. One night in autumn, he got up in the middle of the night and accidentally bumped into a chair.
He fell to the ground and died completely.
First, Gao Chushan observed mourning for three years, and then Su Qin'er observed mourning for three years. Although the two had already decided to get married, they had never held a happy event. At this time, the two of them had long passed the age of hairpins and crowns.
Three years later, it was another year's big exam. Su Qin'er stayed in Taoyuan Town during the mourning period, while Gao Chushan rushed to Kyoto to take the exam with great ambition.
After the Autumn Palace came the Spring Palace, and after the Spring Palace came the Palace Examination. Gao Chushan was away for most of the year. Although they were thousands of miles apart, Gao Chushan wrote a letter home to Su Qin'er every month.
In the summer of the second year, Su Qin'er received a letter from Gao Chushan. The letter only contained one line: When the gold medal was named, it was a night of flowers and candles in the bridal chamber.
Su Qin'er knew that this was Gao Chushan's promise to her, and she also knew that Gao Chushan had only left this sentence out of thousands of words to tell her that he remembered his promise.
The person who delivered Gao Chushan's letter this time came from Kyoto. When he handed the letter to Su Qin'er, he said: "This is a letter from the Number One Scholar."
It turns out that Gao Chushan was not only named on the gold list, but also the number one scholar.
Su Qin'er was of course happy for Gao Chushan. She was very happy every day and waited for Gao Chushan's return with her fingers crossed.
According to the letter sent by Gao Chushan, he could arrive in Taoyuan Town in a month at most, but one month passed, two months passed... Gao Chushan never appeared in Taoyuan Town.
Gossips gradually began to spread in the town. Some people said that Gao Chushan was the number one scholar in high school. He was granted a marriage by the emperor and married the princess of the dynasty. Some people said that Gao Chushan was watched by the prime minister, accepted into his family, and married the eldest daughter of the prime minister's family... In short
, all kinds of things, and some people even gossiped in front of Su Qin'er and told her not to wait. Today's Gaochu Mountain is too high for her to climb. Instead of wasting time here foolishly, it would be better to marry the guy who just died on the street next door.
My wife’s wife’s role as king should be renewed.
Su Qin'er didn't believe it at first. She said that Gao Chushan was not that kind of person. If Gao Chushan had betrayed her, he would have betrayed her three years ago when he could go to Beijing to take the exam. There was no need to waste three years.
Everyone couldn't persuade Su Qin'er. Some said she was stupid, some said she was stubborn, and some said she was deceiving herself.
Su Qin'er was more worried about something unexpected happening to Gao Chushan.
In the blink of an eye, it was the third month. Su Qiner saw that Gao Chushan had not returned to Taoyuan Town yet. She began to feel restless and couldn't wait any longer.
At this time, Su Qin'er's mourning period has passed. The two most important people to her in this life are her father who has passed away and the other who was the number one scholar at that time, Gao Chushan.
Waiting here for a long time, she might as well go to Beijing to see clearly. Gao Chushan has been out of touch for so long. She has to know whether he is alive or dead. Even if it is just like what the neighbors say, she has to see it with her own eyes.
look.
She has bet to Gao Chushan for so many years, and she must lose clearly if she loses.
What's more, she believed in Gao Chushan deep down, and she felt that Gao Chushan would never abandon her.
She thought this way, so she did it. She sold everything in Taoyuan Town and went to Beijing with her money.
