On the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, at dawn, the Luo family went out to school. Those who were supposed to go to school today and those who were supposed to leave for Fucheng needed to prepare a lot of dry food.

Luo Wense has become accustomed to the current life of her parents' family, and she also knows that Chen Xiuyan prepares snacks for Luo Mingchu, Luo Mingnian and Luo Mingxin every day in school. She is very moved by Chen Xiuyan's concern for the children at home.

In the past, Luo Wenqian's family didn't prepare snacks when he was studying. It's no wonder that the children in the family like Chen Xiuyan so much.

Although Luo Wense's cooking skills are not as good as Chen Xiuyan's, she is better than Luo Mingqing and others. Today she specially made mung bean cake, steamed white steamed buns, cooked brown sugar egg soup, steamed corn, breakfast, snacks, and dry food for the road.

.

Luo Mingqing sent Luo Mingchu and Luo Mingnian to the Ning family to study, and then sent Luo Wenqian, Chen Xiuyan and Luo Mingxin to the Wang residence.

When we arrived at the royal residence, six carriages were parked at the gate, which was quite a spectacle.

Mrs. Wang, Dianli Wang, Mrs. Wang, etc. were all there. As soon as Wang Yajie saw Luo Wenqian, he came up to say hello.

In addition to the Wang family, Chen Xiuyan also met the Ning family and Liu Zhai people.

Ning Youjin also went with Wang Yajie and the others. As the future Yue family, the Liu family came to see him off in person, including Liu Qingxiu.

Looking at the gentle Luo Wenqian and the charming and cheerful Chen Xiuyan, Liu Qingxiu squeezed the handkerchief tightly. She didn't understand why Luo Wenqian was still so lively, and at the same time she was glad that he was alive.

Liu Qingxiu glanced at Ning Youjin secretly, and sure enough, his eyes were looking at Luo Wenqian and Chen Xiuyan with a pair of eyes that were calmer than those of his peers, and he didn't know who they could see.

Luo Wenqian saluted Wang Dianli and others, and a group of people got on the carriage to Fucheng in order not to waste time.

After seeing Chen Xiuyan getting on the carriage, Liu Qingxiu couldn't help but ask, "Is the Luo family also going to Fucheng?"

When she saw everyone around her looking at her, Liu Qingxiu knew that she had talked too much.

"Mrs. Luo and Luo Xiucai have just gotten married. It's normal to go with her. You can take good care of them nearby." Wang Yayu immediately spoke for Chen Xiuyan, "When you get married to Ning Xiucai, you can also go with her."

This sentence suddenly hit Liu Qingxiu's pain point. She and Ning Youjin had already decided to get married for two years. They originally thought that they could get married after they got hairpins, but the Ning family wanted Ning Youjin to concentrate on studying.

After hearing about the haircut ceremony, she didn't mention it yet. It was only after her mother went back to her parents' home to inquire about it that she confirmed that Ning Youjin would come to the house to ask for her haircut after the exam.

Six carriages drove away from the gate of Wangzhai one after another. The first one was Ning Youjin, followed by Wang Yajie, then Luo Wenqian and Chen Xiuyan. The next three carriages were one of the servants sent by Wangzhai to take care of a few people, and the other two were

It is packed with luggage and books.

The carriage drove out of the city gate. There were two carriages waiting outside the city gate. They were the five remaining students from the county school who were going to take the provincial examination. They rented the carriages together.

Eight carriages drove toward Fucheng in a mighty manner. Tonight, the group will stay in Yi County. If they want to enter the city before dark, they have to drive non-stop. In addition to the convenience of getting down, even meals are served in the carriage compartment.

.

Chen Xiuyan tried riding a horse-drawn carriage for the first time, and it was really uncomfortable. Not to mention the bumps, it was also hot, but horses were already the fastest means of transportation in ancient times, so she could only endure it.

Fortunately, Wang's house arranged the carriage to be quite comfortable, laying out bedding, mats, and a small tea cabinet. The small tea cabinet contained a teapot, teacups, and some dried fruits and candied fruits.

Chen Xiuyan looked at the time and took out the mung bean cake, poured some tea, and each of her and Luo Wenqian ate two pieces. She did not dare to drink more tea for fear of having to go to the toilet, but most of the water was excreted through sweat on such a hot day.

The carriage walked along the official road. Chen Xiuyan was tired of seeing the single scenery on the road, so she lay down to sleep, but the weather was too hot, but she fell asleep for a while afterwards.

When the carriage entered the city gate of Yi County, it was still daylight, but it was estimated that it was almost midnight.

The group went to an inn called Fushun and asked for five rooms and a table of meals.

Chen Xiuyan followed Luo Wenqian and his classmates to eat together at the table in the lobby. After a long journey, they ordered light dishes, but the taste was really not that good. Chen Xiuyan simply ate a steamed bun, picked up a few chopsticks and stopped eating.

hand.

When arriving at a new place, Chen Xiuyan always wanted to explore and try the local specialties, but the scholar was busy going back to his room to study.

Luo Wenqian wanted to accompany Chen Xiuyan, but he was very knowledgeable, and Wang Yajie and others wanted to ask him for advice. In order to protect people, Wang Yajie asked the housekeeper of Wang Zhai to go out with Chen Xiuyan.

"Uncle Chen is very familiar with Yi County. With him following my sister-in-law, brother Ziqing, you don't need to worry." Wang Yayu explained.

Chen Xiuyan was afraid that they would worry so she didn't refuse.

Now that the sun was setting in the west and it was not very hot, Chen Xiuyan slowly looked at the county seat where she came for the first time. Compared with the county seat of Yijiang County, the city of Yi County was relatively smaller.

Uncle Chen respected Chen Xiuyan very much and introduced her to her as he walked, "Doctor Chen's county is most famous for their fried dumplings. The mung bean flour pancakes are filled with eggs and dumplings, and then brushed with some sauce. It's very fragrant. Dr. Chen

Why don’t you buy one and try it?”

Pancake fruit, Chen Xiuyan knew what it was as soon as she heard it, not to mention she was really greedy.

Uncle Chen took Chen Xiuyan to a stall, bought one for her, and scrambled to pay for it.

"Doctor Chen, don't argue with me. Because of Dr. Chen's relationship, the wages of our servants in Wangzhai have increased a bit. I can afford a fried dumpling." Uncle Chen said with a smile.

"Hey, that pair of identical girls is here again. If you don't bury them on this hot day, who are you dragging them out to the street to smoke?"

"At such a young age, who would dare to ask for it except Renyaozi? Suddenly I have two more mouths."

"I don't even want it. I haven't learned how to do it. I have to spend a lot of money first. If no one wants it, I will have to go to that lowly place."

…

Chen Xiuyan listened to the excitement around her and immediately saw two dirty children far away. One was pulling the mat hard, and the other was pushing hard behind her. When she got to a corner of the street, she carefully placed the straw mat.

Then he knelt in front of the mat and looked at the shape of the mat, which should contain a person.

"But those two children are really sensible and repay their kindness. Hey, if my family was richer, I might have bought them."

"No, the Hongxi Class was disbanded because the class leader died. So many people left, and these two little ones were the only ones left. They were the only ones who wanted to sell themselves to bury the class leader."

"How can they live on their own if they are so young and don't sell? Maybe they just want to use this name to sell more. There is a troupe somewhere. Children at such a young age have already learned to read eyes."

Chen Xiuyan found that no matter how the people passing by them talked, the expressions of the two children did not change much, and they would not cry pitifully to passers-by, they would just kneel upright.
