The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 64 Repayment
Lu Jinkang and the old doctor ate breakfast at Liu Donglin's house. Mrs. Wei and her two daughters-in-law were able-bodied people. A big pot of thick white rice porridge was served with a few refreshing side dishes pickled by the family, plus two baskets of big meat buns. , although simple but quite affordable, it is much more nutritious than Su Yunduo's multigrain porridge and black flour pancakes.

The old doctor gave Su Chengzhi a follow-up consultation and confirmed that Su Chengzhi's condition had indeed improved a lot, so he felt relieved and left Geshan Village with Lu Jinkang and his party.
They had to go to Heishui Town first, where their main task of going out of Beijing was to express their gratitude to Mrs. Ning and the old doctor to see the old couple of Ning and Ning Zhongping's wife, Shen.

When Su Yunduo was preparing breakfast in the kitchen in the morning, Ning Zhong found Su Yunduo by accident and told him about Lu Jinkang's identity and his own experience in the capital.

Only then did Su Yunduo realize that she had guessed most of the content correctly, except that she had guessed wrongly about the person Ning Zhongping saved.

Knowing that the young master is called Lu Jinkang, who is the eldest grandson of Lu Mingyang, the Duke of War God Township in Dongling Kingdom, Su Yunduo curled his lips. Although he did not regret his words and deeds yesterday, he was even more determined to keep a distance from Lu Jinkang, and even be able to get away from him. He is as far away as possible.

That kind of aristocratic son is not something a country girl like her can afford to offend!
Before leaving Geshan Village, Ning Zhongping told Su Yunduo again: "Duoduo, even if you have something big to worry about, don't be in a hurry, just wait for my uncle for a few days, and after I have dealt with the matter at hand, I will definitely come here to live." In the past few days, if there is something wrong, we will solve it together."

The matter of burning wasteland was not something Su Yunduo could do with his current ability, and now that he had Ning Zhongping's promise, it was even more impossible to act rashly.

After sending Ning Zhongping and his party away, Su Yunduo discussed with Su Chengzhi and Ning respectively, and decided to pay back the salary that Su Chengzhi had paid in advance from the school, and explored the news from the school to see if he could keep Su Chengzhi's teaching position.

It happened that Liu Donglin was going to the town to handle the title deed of the wasteland in front of the courtyard for the Su family. Su Yunduo arranged the house properly, changed into clean clothes, and drove slowly to the town in Liu Donglin's ox cart.

Su Yunduo didn't care whether Su Chengzhi could keep his teaching position. She hoped that Su Chengzhi could take care of his health and calm down to prepare for next year's provincial examination.

That's right, Su Yunduo was going to encourage Su Chengzhi to continue his imperial examination path. In Su Yunduo's memory, Su Chengzhi especially liked reading. He dare not say how talented he is in governing the country, but he cannot deny that he is a man of lofty ideals.

If Su Chengzhi can really take the imperial examination, Su Yunduo feels that it will be of greater help to the future of the younger brothers. As for herself, Su Yunduo feels that it should be very pleasant to grow flowers and herbs in Geshan Village, a place with beautiful mountains and rivers. matter.

In Su Yunduo's heart, there is still such a secret poking thought, she wants to make those people in the old house who swept their family out regret it to the point of heartache!
Just imagine if Su Zefan failed to pass the college examination to be a scholar next year, and Su Chengzhi, who was kicked out by them and made it clear that he would never owe each other, passed the provincial examination, what kind of face would those people in the old house be like, would they overthrow that old man again? What about "neither owes each other"?

Let's wait and see!

I hope that those people in the old house will not disappoint her, so that she can figure out where the bottom line of those people in the old house is, and it is best to let them make more violent disturbances, so that they can completely smash what is still in Su Chengzhi's heart. A little nostalgia.

Liu Donglin insisted on accompanying Su Yunduo to the school in person. The uncle of the school gatekeeper knew Liu Donglin and thought he was looking for Liu Yushu, but was told to look for the head teacher.

Linxi Town is just a small town, and the whole town is just such a school. The head of the school is an old scholar, but he is a good man but a bit pedantic. Without his permission, girls are not allowed to enter the school, so Su Yunduo was blocked by the uncle. outside the door.

After Liu Donglin explained, he still didn't get the uncle's permission.

In desperation, Liu Donglin had to go in to communicate with the headmaster, to see if the headmaster could see Su Yunduo.

I don't know how Liu Donglin persuaded the head, someone came out soon and took Su Yunduo in.

Su Yunduo first took out the 15 taels of silver ticket and returned it to the head teacher with both hands, but the head teacher didn't accept it, but gave Su Yunduo the IOU that was said to be left in the school, and asked her to bring it back to Su Chengzhi.

Su Yunduo understood a little bit in his heart. It seemed that Su Chengzhi's teaching position was no longer guaranteed. Sure enough, the head teacher said: "I admire Master Su's teaching ability very much, and I also believe that Master Su is not tuberculosis, but..."

Before the headmaster finished speaking, Su Yunduo stood up with a smile and first blessed the headmaster, then solemnly knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you for the trust of the headmaster! Daddy asked me to kowtow to the headmaster for him , Thanks to the headmaster for taking care of him these years, my father also said that he had a good time in the school and learned a lot, which will be very helpful for his future scientific examinations."

Scientific research?
As soon as Su Yunduo finished speaking, Liu Donglin and the headmaster's questioning eyes fell on her unreservedly, while Su Yunduo nodded with a faint smile.

Although she hasn't mentioned this matter to Su Chengzhi yet, she has the confidence and certainty to persuade Su Chengzhi. In short, Su Yunduo will persuade Su Chengzhi to go back to the road of imperial examination no matter what, so she is not afraid of cheating.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Liu Donglin frowned first, and soon a trace of joy dyed his brows.

"Although Su Xiucai didn't go to school for a few years, and didn't take the scientific examination after being a scholar, he has not been abandoned these years. After these years of accumulation, his skills are still quite deep. Maybe, our town is still You can really make a small move!" The head of the hall sighed after being stunned for a moment.

Hearing the headmaster's words, the joy on Liu Donglin's face was even greater, while Su Yunduo was still indifferent. Whether Su Chengzhi could pass the exam as he wished would depend on the weather, geography and people harmony during the exam, which are indispensable.

Of course, the most important thing now is to get Su Chengzhi back to health as soon as possible, and to find ways to muster up his courage and confidence in the scientific examination. With these and his own skills, even if he fails next year, he can still make up for his failure The regret left in my heart after participating in the scientific examination.

Although Su Yunduo insisted on repaying Su Chengzhi's three-month advance salary, the headmaster returned the 15 taels of silver to Su Yunduo in the form of liquidated damages from the school, and asked Su Yunduo to bring a message to Su Chengzhi, telling him not to let him go. Forget the triennial test.

Su Yunduo really doesn't know about the three-year test. Su Chengzhi passed the test when he was 15 years old. If he took the test once every three years, he has taken the test at least four times, but Su Yunduo has no memory. Presumably because Su Chengzhi lived in the town most of the time, he didn't have the slightest impression of him going to Yanshan Mansion to take the test once every three years.

From this point of view, Su Chengzhi is still very talented. After years of teaching and working in the fields when the farming is busy, he can pass the test every time and always stay in the forefront. Six buckets of lin rice.

In this way, Su Yunduo has more confidence in Su Chengzhi's participation in next year's provincial examination.
