Chapter 355

Aye and Axi returned to Shahe County in a rabbit-haired jacket, but they didn't take off their clothes when they arrived home. They drank a few sips of water to moisten their throats. They first showed their new clothes with their great-grandmother. After teasing Old Lady He and Old Lady Jiang, they almost laughed on the kang, and they went to Master Chaoyun to continue displaying them.

A Lie said, "A Ye and A Xi are really popular."

"It's like people are crazy." He Zijin ordered Maruko to take the children to Master Chaoyun's place, sit down and talk to Mr. He, and ask if they have any problems at home after they have been away.

Mrs. He said, "What can I do? It's all good. Mrs. Zhuang is here to talk to me. Your third sister and Aqi come here every day. I have an old family here, so I told them to tell them to just do their own business." Asked her granddaughter, her grandson-in-law had a smooth journey, and said, "Don't A Lie study at home, why do you come?"

He Zijin said, "A Lie is also working on the topic now. A Nian said that she would study the recent topic selection of the autumn examination and talk about A Lie's experience. She always has classmates looking for him at home. It would be better to be in the county and Luo Daru, who is also a knowledgeable gentleman."

Old lady He nodded, feeling that what her granddaughter said was quite reasonable. He Zijin smiled and said, "There is another thing. A Lie's marriage is scheduled to start spring next year. It's time to start cleaning up a new house. It's not very good for winter, but it's better to do it in summer. Once the house is cleaned up, it's not quiet, so it's better to come to the county."

A Lie is really a innocent and kind boy. When he talks about marriage, he feels a little embarrassed. He finds a reason to avoid it. A Nian goes out with him and smiles, "What's the shame about this?"

A Lie was embarrassed in front of the female elders, so she wouldn't be like this in front of Brother A Nian. A Lie said, "You are not as thick-skinned as Brother A Nian."

A Nian laughed, "A man must be thick-skinned when he gets a wife."

A Lie did not agree with this fallacy, and went to the study with Brother A Nian. This was not the study that A Nian often used, but a small courtyard with two vegetation. The surroundings of the courtyard were lush and carefully pruned. Now roses are in full bloom. A very tall Chinese toon tree in the courtyard sprinkled with bright shade. When you enter the study, you are even more tidy. The large bookshelf against the wall and the top of the wall are built with large pieces of heads. The bookshelf furniture is half old, but the books are all new. A Nian couldn't help but say, "Is this Brother A Nian's inner study?"

"No, my inner study is next to my sister Zijin's bedroom. This was originally cleaned up by Aye and Axi, and it will be used in a few years when I go to school. Later, I asked Chongyang Dabao to do his homework here, but the two boys who were not interested were reluctant to come."

A Lie thought about his nephew and niece being only over three years old, so Brother Nian had sorted out such a large study room to prepare. He was speechless for a while and said, "Brother Nian, you really want to be long-term."

A Nian laughed, "What do you have to look at? You have to be long-term!"

A Lie didn't know what to say about Brother A Nian's confidence all the time. There were three main rooms, one study room, one small hall, and one bedroom. The bedroom was hung with a green gauze tent, and there were four treasures of study on the table beside the window.

A Lie was about to praise him, and first "pop" and reached out to pat off a mosquito. A Nian said, "There are many flowers and trees in this courtyard, and there are more mosquitoes. It's okay. Put a few pots of mosquito repel grass and then fumigate it."

A Nian first compiled the booklets he brought with him and asked Brother Zhong to slowly clean up. A Nian asked A Lée to take the articles he had done recently, and went to Master Chaoyun, and met Luo Daru again. A Nian said, "A Lée is preparing to give him some questions. When he solves the questions, I want to ask the teacher to help me."

Luo Daru and Tao, "What's the story after this fall?"

A Lie hurriedly presented his recent articles with both hands. Luo Daru is known as the number one Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confucian Confu

Luo Daru looked at him and soon read all the ten articles brought by A Lie. He looked up and down at A Lie. Luo Daru and Taoism, "Where is the literary person?"

A Lie didn't know whether Mr. Luo praised him or demoted him, so A Lie had to say, "You are polite."

"Not polite." Luo Daru and Tao, "just as young and immature."

A Lie:...

"How about looking for you? If we A Lie can win one armor directly, we don't have to look for you." A Nian also relies on Luo Daru in official business. The two are very familiar with each other. Because Luo Daru is not like Master Chaoyun's half-body immortal spirit, Luo Daru is more down-to-earth, and A Nian speaks with Luo Daru more casually.

A Nian and A Lie said, "To say that the article is immature and tender means that the general outline is out, but the words are not concise enough. Generally, what Mr. Luo doesn't like is said to be worse than pigs and dogs."

A Lie laughed out loud, and Luo Daru glared at A Nian, "Now the court's Tanhua is at this level?" How did you say it?

A Nian said shamelessly, "That's how Tanhua is, the sixteen-year-old."

Luo Daru could even smile and should give him some advice on A Lie.

When A Lie came out, he said to A Nian Ge, "Mr. Luo used to look quite kind."

"You can't judge people by appearance." A Nian said, "Mr. Luo and Master Chaoyun are quarreling with each other."

A Lie said, "Master Chaoyun is like a god, he can still bicker with people."

"So, we cannot judge people by their appearance."

A Lie glanced at Brother Nian who was still alive and felt that Brother Nian was becoming more and more capable of pretending.

A Nian first found a tutor for A Lie, and then began to analyze the style of this year's autumn examination test. If the test test was in previous years, A Nian would not have to work hard. In previous years, Governor Yu participated in the final review of the papers. Do Governor Yu's style and preferences? This old man has been in Beichang Prefecture for many years, and with his daily contacts, A Nian has a clear mind. But this time, Governor Yu returned to the imperial capital to report his duties. I don't know if Governor Yu can come back. If Governor Yu cannot come back, then the matter of the Qiu Examination will fall on Li Xuezheng's shoulders. Li Xuezheng will have to study it well.

So, A Nian had to prepare for both ways.

He Zijin couldn't help with the matter. After she came back, she also went to Master Chaoyun's place. Seeing that the twins had taken off the rabbit-haired jacket and changed into normal clothes, He Zijin admired Master Chaoyun very much. He was so capable that he could even let the two stinky guys change their clothes.

When He Zijin and Master Chaoyun asked how to make the stinky goods change their clothes, Master Chaoyun smiled and said, "I didn't say anything, they changed it myself."

He Zijin looked at Master Chaoyun suspiciously, feeling that Master Chaoyun was becoming more and more dishonest. Master Chaoyun continued to smile, "The clothes are pretty good. A Xi and A Ye have danced several dances for me. Maybe he is tired, so he changed it."

He Zijin could already imagine how the twins sang and danced with Master Chaoyun, and then she became sweaty all over. When it was hot, she naturally took off. It was really... she even forgot this truth, and she almost used force to solve it yesterday... When she thought of this, Sister Zijin felt that she was simply a little expert in education.

Master Chaoyun also said that his female disciple, "Don't treat children too fiercely."

He Zijin's lips twitched, "Master, don't you know, it's the only one in the summer, each of them is a leather jacket."

Master Chaoyun looked very understanding and said, "A child is different from adults, but he is called a child."

After talking about the twins, He Zijin talked about what Mrs. Yu had entrusted and said, "I didn't get a letter at first. Mrs. Yu said that if the master had something to bring, she could help bring it with me."

Master Chaoyun slightly said, "I understand."

Seeing that Master Chaoyun didn't say much, He Zijin didn't ask more. Recently, she has been very busy, mainly for the rice business. He Zijin felt that she really bought less land. One hundred acres of land is enough for what it takes to eat at home, and even more so she wants to do some rice business. There is no regret in the world that sells medicine, so He Zijin will do a good job that day. Anyway, it has made the reputation of Shahe fragrant rice, and it is good for the people to make some money.

He Zijin has been busy with the opening of her mother's pickle shop recently. She gave her mother the idea, so she simply bought two shops, one in Beichang Mansion and one in Quezhan. Now she has the pickle shop, and the shop in Quezhan has also been packed up and is waiting to open.

He Zijin sent Sixi to help prepare for the opening. She cared more about the candidate A Lie at home.

A Lie lived in a small courtyard with a second entrance, not a quadrangle, but a small courtyard with two entrances. As soon as he entered the front, A Lie took Brother Zhong to live. On weekdays, A Lie sent two little maids to study. Later, He Zijin sent two little maids. When he entered the back, he had to cook a stove. But no one was used for a while and had not been placed. He was placed together to make a small stove and warm up a midnight snack at night. He Zijin knew his younger brother's habit of studying, and the same was true when A Niangong was studying. It was said that the ancients were busy at midnight, not only those who worked as a living, but those who studied were just as hard as those who worked. Because they slept late, they had to eat some midnight snack at night. He Zijin asked the little maid to prepare, either buns, noodles or dumplings. Anyway, they had to leave every night, so they could make it on the small stove.

After Mrs. He found out, she felt that the girl was considerate in films and said to Madam Yu, "I came here like this when I was a child. A Nian was like this when I was studying, and the girl knew it."

"Yes." Madam Yu laughed, "This study is a tiring task. She eats oil and water every day. Seeing that Young Master A Lie has not gained a little weight."

Old Madam He sighed, "It's so easy to get hit." He said, "Take my bird's nest and give it to A Lie to eat."

Madam Yu agreed, but Alie didn't like to eat sweet foods. Mrs. He said, "It's delicious to make soup."

A Lie felt that his manly man could take the supplements for his grandmother to nourish his body. A Lie said, "It doesn't taste at all, it depends on the soup. What does the soup taste like? What does it taste like? It's better to eat two more bowls of roast pork."

Mrs. He said, "Then make more roast pork."

A Lie's diet is similar to Double Ninth Festival. Both of them are meatless. When Mrs. He saw that his grandson did not eat bird's nest, he saw Tianer asking the kitchen to make meat back to nourish his grandson. He Zijin smiled and said, "No need to tell my grandmother, we don't have meat to eat one day."

When Mrs. He thought about it, she took the girl to the temple to burn incense for her grandson.

Mrs. He had to find something to do here, and He Zijin went with her. However, Jiang Ren, who went to Beijingguan to deliver military rations, came home. Chen Yuan and He Peipei and his wife came with Jiang Ren. The two of them came here to say goodbye to Mrs. He and she planned to go back to their hometown.

Mrs. He asked Chen Yuan, "Your father-in-law and mother-in-law live in Ahan?"

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "My father-in-law and mother-in-law finally saw the eldest brother and were unwilling to leave for a moment. There were two little nephews, who were so cute. My sister-in-law had a body again, so her father-in-law and mother-in-law were even more inseparable. We thought, we would go back first and go back to communicate with the house to reassure Lili and his wife that even my parents, grandmother and grandmother in my family were also thinking about it."

Mrs. He said, "If you don't go back, don't go back. I guess they will stay there too." He Peipei said, "Tell your parents, don't mess around with those stories in the future. It's not easy for your brother. Let them be honest and enjoy the blessings of their sons. They are not lucky. There are so many reasonable families who don't have a promising child like Ahan."

He Peipei was used to He’s prejudice against her parents, mainly because his parents made mistakes first. He Peipei smiled and said, “My parents have changed a lot now. My mother loves my sister-in-law more than me. She is also with her in-laws. Every day, the family talks and laughs together, which is more than cozy in her hometown.”

"That's right, they can't see their eldest grandson in their hometown."

He Peipei smiled and heard Mrs. He asked them again when they could find the caravan when they would go back. Chen Yuan answered one by one, and Mrs. He said, "I have expected that you will go back. I have prepared some things and take them together." Chen Yuan wanted to refuse politely, and Mrs. He said, "It's not for you, you'll refuse. I'll give it to your grandmother."

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "When I came, my grandmother said that she would not ask me for my uncle's things, and she would feel relieved if she said that my uncle and grandmother took care of her health."

Mrs. He smiled, "My little intention is not a valuable thing. It is all local products here. After packing up, I will take them back together. Your family has money and is not short of this. It is my heart. There is also something for your sister-in-law. I have marked the same labels and written them all, and you will take them back together."

Chen Yuan thanked her grandmother and sister-in-law again.

Chen Yuan and He Peipei rested for two days at the He family and then set off and returned to their hometown. He inevitably gave another advice, and both of them responded to the situation of being careful on the way.

After Chen Yuan and He Peipei left, Jiang Ren told a big and small happy event. The He family was a little surprised, but it also felt that it was reasonable - Jiang Ying got engaged.

Jiang Ren smiled and said, "General Ji's sacrificial wine, a fifth-rank civil servant, is highly valued by General Ji. He is twenty-five years old this year, a little older. He was delayed in the war and has not gotten married."

He Zijin smiled and said, "This is a great joy. I have to prepare a gift for Sister Ying."

Mrs. He also said, "It should be that Miss Jiang is seventeen this year. The marriage has been decided, is the date of marriage determined?"

Jiang Ren smiled and said, "It's time to celebrate the New Year's Ceremony."

The He family had seen Jiang Ying. They were very neat and did not spoil at all. They knew that she had a good marriage again and were happy for Jiang Ying. Jiang Ren also talked about Yao Jie's recent situation. Jiang Ren said, "Don't look at Ajie's official family, he was spoiled and raised when he saw him, but he was quite brave. He took his subordinates out of patrol. When he met bandits, Ajie even killed several bandits and raised them to the general flag because of the war. He also asked me to bring a letter to Alie."

The He family said that Yao Jie was promising, even though the general flag was also a small official, there were only fifty people under his command, but Yao Jie was exchanged for serious military achievements. Thinking about Yao Jie's origin and the family of serious civil servants, it would be very difficult.

When A Lie heard that there was a letter from a good friend, he quickly answered it.

Anyway, it's all good news.

Before the autumn examination, there was good news.

In the autumn exam, A Lie was not lucky. With the blessing of A Nian and Luo Daru, A Lie was not a stupid person. In terms of improvement in articles, Luo Daru said, "Look at A Lie is a straightforward person, but he is quite spiritual when studying."

Of course, A Lie rolled his eyes a lot, what does "also spiritual" mean? The main reason is that he has a brother A Nian in his family, who is so amazing. Unless he has a Wenqu star reincarnated, he will not be able to compare with A Nian. However, A Lie also knows that he is not a fool, let alone A Lie is working hard. A Lie feels that if he is not as talented as A Nian, he has to work harder. Can diligence make up for his shortcomings?

A Lie made four months before the exam, and his articles were performed normally in the autumn examination, but his luck was a little worse. Because the ranking was released, A Lie was only two away from Sun Shan. Governor Yu read A Lie’s articles on Qiu Examination and said to his wife, “Although A Lie has not won, he has already had a fire-huo Hou. If you polish it carefully for three years, the autumn examination will be expected.”

Mrs. Yu smiled and said, "It's just a little bit of luck."

"He is still young, and there is no harm in training more." Governor Yu pointed to A Lie's test paper and said, "I read it carefully when I was reading, but it was the experience I got from the book. I only saw the subtle words and the great meanings did not solve the sufferings of the people."

Although A Lie failed the exam, he was not in a good ranking. He participated in the autumn examination for the first year and was young, and his family was not unhappy. But Mrs. He kept talking privately, "Is it because the incense and silver donated when I worshiped the Bodhisattva, which made the Bodhisattva misunderstand his heart ungodly."
