Chapter 62 Go to the county seat

There was 100 taels of silver in the purse, and he had calculated that 100 taels was about the same. This time he went to the mountains and earned more than 100 taels of silver.

There are more than ten taels left in his hand.

"You disappeared at night to get money?!" Mu Zhixu didn't know what to say.

this person……

"Well, the yard is mine, and you can't take the money."

"...You are a fool, I still have the 500 taels of silver you won here, isn't it enough to build a yard?" She glared at Gu Lin angrily.

It disappeared in the middle of the night and came back the next afternoon. It must have gone into the mountains. There are so many wild animals in the mountains.

Those that can sell for more than a hundred taels are beasts.

Although he was scolded, Gu Lin felt a little happy in his heart. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I leave the rest to you. I'll go to sleep for a while."

After saying that, he turned around and went into the house, and fell asleep.

It's been a sleepless night.

Mu Zhixu...

Mu Zhihe next to him hugged Xia Xia, little Xia Xia's big eyes were full of doubts, "Sister, why is Brother Gu so happy to be scolded by you?"

"Because he's mentally ill!" Mu Zhixu rolled his eyes.

Gu Lin inside the door: "..." He is not asleep yet.

Mu Shen and Mu Yuan, who were practicing, almost lost their breath, and they looked at their elder sister resentfully.

Mu Zhixu, "...I'm sorry."

The next day is an auspicious day, and it is appropriate to start ground work. Zhou Yun quickly counted the number of people and started digging the foundation today.

There are many people digging the foundation, more than 30 people.

It was estimated that the digging was almost done in two days. Zhou Yun asked his younger brother to be the supervisor, while he went to buy green bricks.

After Mu Shen and the others knew that the construction of their house had started, they wished they could squat there and watch without leaving each other.

They will have their own house.

Happy!
"Zhixu, our food is gone." Mu Zhihe said during lunch that day.

She just cooks, and Zhi Xu buys food and vegetables.

"Well, I'll go to the county to have a look later. By the way, cousin, you take the two taels of silver." Mu Zhixu put down the bowl and took out the two taels of silver.

"Oh, I didn't ask you for money!" Mu Zhihe was taken aback and quickly declined.

Mu Zhixu smiled, "I know, I'm here for your emergency, sometimes I'm not here or I can't find me temporarily, you can also buy vegetables yourself."

"You're not here? Where are you going?"

Mu Shen and the others looked at Mu Zhixu nervously.

The dependence and tension in their eyes made Mu Zhixu feel helpless and heartbroken.

"I mean, if Ah Shen and the three are still young, I can rest assured that the money will be put on you."

After all, Mu Zhihe accepted the money.

After dinner, Mu Zhixu and Gu Lin drove the donkey cart to the county. There is also a market in Huaihua Town, but there is a small market every three days, and a big market every five days.

Furthermore, they had seen Huaihua Town on the way here, it was too small, there were only a few scattered shops.

Of course, it was enough to buy daily necessities, but Mu Zhixu came out this time not only to buy vegetables and food, she wanted to see Rong County, and she couldn't afford to sit and eat.

After the spring of the next year, after moving, she has to make money.

It is necessary to investigate the market.

Gu Lin also probably knew what she was thinking.

"By the way, Jinzhi, you want to take the imperial examination, do you want to go to school?" Mu Zhixu frowned.

The imperial examination must be passed level by level, and the qualifications for the examination must first be obtained.

All scholars who are eligible to take the county examination can be collectively referred to as Tongsheng. If you pass the county examination, you are a scholar;

It is not easy to be admitted to Juren. Not only are there many subjects in the exam, but there is also a quota limit.

For example, there are ten very outstanding candidates this year, but only five are selected above, and the remaining five can only be regretted not to be on the list.

Mu Zhixu knew that Mrs. Xia's husband in the village, Zhou Xiucai, was selected as a scholar in his 20s, and he was famous all over the country.

And the youngest son of the village chief also won the title of Tongsheng.

In the coming year, you can continue to take the exam for scholar. Mid-August is the triennial autumn. I heard that Zhou Xiucai will also end.

This is also the reason why Xia Shi rented the house to them and told them not to make noise.

Anyway, Mu Zhixu has never met Zhou Xiucai so far.

I heard that he was studying hard at home.

"Well, let's go in!" Gu Lin nodded.

Otherwise, it's hard to say his whole body of knowledge. Although it can be said that he learned it before, the imperial examination is different from others.

Gu Lin was suddenly a little excited. If he returned to the capital with the imperial examination, those people must look pretty.

"Then let's take a look at the academies in the county today." Mu Zhixu glanced at the boy who suddenly became inexplicably excited.

It turns out that he likes going to school very much!

"Okay, by the way, since I'm in the school, Ah Shen and Ah Yuan should also study in the county, and I can take care of them." Gu Lin thought for a while and said.

Since he plans to go to school, it's okay to take two children.

Moreover, Mu Shen and Mu Yuan are both good seedlings, and they are quite obedient.

"That's the best!" Mu Zhixu frowned.

I am very happy!

It feels more and more like a family!
"But if this is the case, the livelihood of the family will be handed over to you." Gu Lin glanced at her.

The ear tips are red.

Mu Zhixu smiled happily, "Don't worry, I like making money the most, so it's okay to leave it to me."

The two talked and laughed, and soon arrived at the county seat.

There is a special place for borrowing donkey carts in the county seat. After Mu Zhixu paid the copper coin, he and Gu Lin walked around the county seat together.

There are two relatively large restaurants in the county seat, facing each other on the same street, quite a bit of tit-for-tat.

The two should be regarded as evenly matched, and the number of guests is similar.

Moreover, there are not a few food sellers in Rong County, and there is no shortage of various cloth and rouge shops, as well as jewelry shops, which proves that the consumption level of the people in Rong County is not bad.

After looking around, Mu Zhixu probably had an idea.

The two went to the market and bought a hundred eggs. Because they bought a lot, the stall owner gave them a basket directly. After that, they bought various vegetables and beans, and went to the oil shop to buy oil.

Gu Lin basically carried it by himself.

The vegetables were almost bought, so Mu Zhixu went to the rice shop again and bought [-] catties of rice. The high-quality rice in the rice shop was not as good as the medium rice in her space, and a thought came to Mu Zhixu's mind.

But it's too early to tell.

After that, the two went to Buzhuang again.

"Girl, is this cloth? What style do you want? I have everything here." They entered a relatively small cloth shop, and the proprietress was a woman in her 20s.

He smiled very brightly.

There is a saying that people should be respected first and then people. Mu Zhixu and Gu Lin wore new padded jackets made of fine cotton cloth. Although they were not as good as the brocade clothes of rich families, they were the only ones among the common people.

Most of the common people wear cotton linen or rough linen, especially cotton jackets, which are mended over and over again.
