On days when the results are not released, the family of seven sleeps until they wake up naturally every day, then locks the door after breakfast and goes out for a walk as a family.
We walked around the county thoroughly and asked about many surrounding places. Sometimes Xiao Qinglin was with them, and sometimes it was just the whole family. The grandparents of the Du family next door went to the temple to pray, and left after taking the exam, and never came back.
During the past few days, the family went shopping around and bought a lot of things. By the way, Yan Yixin's things were also found in a safe place.
In addition to the money he wanted to take home, he also made up for the meeting gifts for his family. His two brothers were jade pendants and his two sisters were pearl flowers.
People have given a lot to them these days, and the young ladies have accumulated a small amount of wealth.
The rest of the things are stored in Sitong Bank, which is the place Xiao Qinglin found. The bank can store it, but it requires a certain amount of money to be paid every year. After all, it is not a problem to leave it in an unoccupied house, which is equivalent to entering.
Safe, as long as Liang Yan does not destroy Chao, the things will not be lost.
The house used to house the rear road was entrusted to Yang Chong for sale. He was not in a hurry anyway, so the price was not set that low.
If it can be sold, sell it; if it can't be sold, leave it alone.
Fast forward to the evening of the sixth day, Cheng Xue packed her things, Barry's carriage arrived, and moved everything on top.
Xiao Qinglin entered the house with a sad face, sat on the kang, and complained:
"My second uncle did it on purpose! Even though he knew that I cared about my brother's grades, he asked me to go back to the forest farm tomorrow to deal with the matter. Can't it be one day earlier? Can't be one day later?"
Cheng Xue placed the fried shepherd's purse cake in front of him.
"They say you won't be late for dinner, so don't worry. Your brother will definitely win, so don't worry."
"Sister-in-law, do you have so much confidence in my brother?"
"Yeah." Cheng Xue nodded heavily, "You have to believe your sister-in-law's vision in choosing a man."
This...
Why do I feel that the vegetable cake in my mouth is no longer fragrant!
Cheng Xue made several more cakes for him, and after loading everything into the car, Xiao Qinglin directly carried the hot shepherd's purse cake and got into the carriage.
I can’t eat it properly and have to carry it around!
The carriage stopped, and he jumped out of the car with the plate. It was still steaming, and he went back to the room to match the red robe, which was just right.
He was about to go back to the house and enjoy the vegetable cake slowly, but he never thought that his second uncle was right opposite him.
He walked over and said hello:
"Second uncle, you haven't rested yet."
"Are you taking a break?" Xiao Feng asked angrily, "What are you holding in your hand?"
Xiao Qinglin brought the plate over and introduced:
"This is shepherd's purse cake made by sister-in-law Li Hui. It is a wild vegetable from the mountains, topped with eggs and noodles..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Feng glared at him and scolded him:
"You are so promising! Is the wild vegetable pancake still a good thing? There are only bird's nests, fish and meat at home, so how about a wild vegetable pancake like this?"
While I was talking, I broke off a piece. I wanted to take a bite and complain, but I didn't expect that it was moderately salty and quite delicious.
For people like them who usually eat big fish and meat, they must have something vegetarian if they don’t like it.
Just like eating barbecue, you have to have a plate of cucumbers to relieve your tiredness. Otherwise, you have to eat garlic.
Xiao Qinglin thought that his second uncle would continue to scold him, but unexpectedly he came to get the cake again.
Just as he was about to retreat, Xiao Feng snatched the plate away and said:
"Let's go to the forest farm the day after tomorrow. I think you know how to be filial."
Huh?
What?
What did he just hear?
Watching my second uncle carrying the plate and leaving, the butler on the side walked over and said with a smile:
"Master, don't listen to the second master's harsh words. Originally, the second master was just teasing you. He decided early in the morning to let you wait until the results are released before returning to the forest farm."
"Really? You didn't trick me?"
"It's absolutely true. How dare I lie to you?" the butler replied with a smile, "Just now, the second master specially ordered me to tell you when you come back. I thought you would have to wait a while to come back, but I didn't expect you to come back now.
."
Xiao Qinglin's dull expression gradually became richer, and finally he just said "Haha..." Silly.
Just when the housekeeper was still about to speak, he ran away.
Looking in the direction, it should be the main courtyard.
Xiao Qinglin ran into the main courtyard as quickly as possible and went directly into the house without anyone asking.
When he saw his second uncle and his second aunt eating vegetable cakes together, he ran over with a smile, put his arms around Xiao Feng's neck from behind, and said:
"Second uncle, I know that my second uncle is the best to me, and my second aunt. Aunt, is this delicious? My sister-in-law Li Hui baked it, and she put a lot of oil in it."
It was rare for Xiao Feng’s wife Cao to see him so energetic, so she smiled and nodded and said:
"It's quite delicious, moderately salty, plenty of eggs, and soft. Is your sister-in-law good at cooking?"
"Well, although it's not as fussy as our cooks, it's a real benefit. I use a basin for everything, and it's very delicious."
"Start, drive, you want to crush me to death." Xiao Feng said he was disgusted, but he didn't look impatient at all.
Xiao Qinglin didn't get up and just leaned against him.
"Second uncle, when I play with Brother Li Hui and Wang Sen, I don't have to compete with those bad friends. Second uncle loves me the most, I know."
Xiao Feng narrowed his eyes with a pleased smile, picked up a piece and fed it to his mouth.
It depends on the situation, but it’s not impossible to meet in advance.
This night in Pingyang County, many people were destined to be unable to sleep. But this had nothing to do with Li Hui. He lay on the kang and chatted with Cheng Xue for a few words, and then fell asleep.
There was no talking all night, and the next day all seven members of the family got up early, including one-year-old Li Huai. Although he didn't know what happened at home, he got up too when his brothers got up.
Li Heng and Yan Yixin went out to buy milk as usual. Li Yue braided Li Tian's hair and changed into goose-yellow clothes.
They were relatively calm here, but Mr. Du left early.
It was not yet Chen time, and it was impossible to release the results. Brother Li Heng came back with milk. When they saw the old man walking towards the Gongyuan with his hands behind his back, they both smiled and narrowed their eyes.
They are all anxious, and they are also anxious, but they will not release the results before the time comes, so they can only wait.
At the beginning of Chenshi, the family finished breakfast, everyone put on warm new clothes and set off to Gongyuan.
There was only Cheng Xue when we saw him off, but this time it was to witness Li Hui’s big day. The whole family had to be neat and tidy, and no one could be missing.
Li Hui hugged Li Huai and chatted with him all the time. No matter what he said, Li Huai would repeat the last word, and the two of them enjoyed it endlessly.
Many people have already arrived in front of Gongyuan. They did not move forward, but waited at the notice board to the west.
Liangyan posted the list in four directions: east, west, north, south, but the one posted in front of the Gongyuan gate was the earliest.
Chang Sui, who was beside Zhou Fei, came over, raised his hands to Li Hui, and said:
"Master Li, Mrs. Li, our young lady, please take your children to the carriage and wait. There are too many people."
Cheng Xue smiled and shook her head, declining:
"Thank you, young lady, for me. The children are well-dressed and not cold. They all want to wait for the result with their father."
When Chang Sui heard this, he bowed his hands and left again...
