The tough wife has room to farm

Chapter 172 Prosperous State Capital
Leaving aside the bad things in Nanhe Village, Wen Liang and Mr. Chang from Huizhou, when they left home and came to the state capital, received warm hospitality from the first floor of the Huizhou mansion, including the shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Liu mediated from the middle, not to mention the room for accommodation, there was no need for the two of them to worry about it at all. The first floor directly took out a small courtyard for solitary living that was usually only opened by the owner to check the accounts, and entertained the two of them.

In the current Huizhou Mansion, due to the influx of students and family members from all over the country, there are many more people than usual. The inns and other places in the city are overcrowded. You need to pay a deposit early in order to get the treatment of being a couple.

This is a scene that happens every year during the college exams. Some of these students are from poor families, and three or five people will work together to rent a low-grade room, and live together waiting for the exam. Not to mention the poor conditions, it is relatively quiet .

Those with a better family background, even slightly better one-room houses, are still not as comfortable as the quiet courtyard where Wen Liang temporarily lives.

This is also the treatment that the shopkeeper Liu has asked his boss for instructions and has been specially approved.

Who is Wen Liang? That's the only family member of Grandma Caishen, the baby brother.

Not only is this small courtyard lent out, but there are also three meals a day, and there are special personnel to take care of the tea and tea.

Compared to Wen Liang, Wen Qiwen, who went out of Nanhe Village at the same time, did not have such treatment, and it has almost become his nightmare these days.

Although he came to Huizhou Prefecture together with his former classmate and teacher from the county school, the halo on him has dissipated because of the previous incidents. Even Ding Shan did not value him as much as before. , the treatment is very different.

In the inn set up by the county school, he and three other students were directly put in a big room.

This time, Wen Qiwen was the only one who came here with a fairly generous package, but facing the strange eyes of his classmates, he felt anxious and unbearable. With such pressure, how could he, who was already knowledgeable, review his studies? good.

When the master was studying the students one by one, Ding Youmao shook his head repeatedly for the first time, and said earnestly, "Qiwen, if you still can't settle down and work hard, you may not be able to achieve any results in this exam!"

This year happens to be the year of joint delivery. After passing the exam, you can directly face the period of the provincial examination proctored by the imperial court. You don't have to wait more than two years to take the triennial provincial examination, and you are only short of the general examination. A year's time.

It can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a good time to truly reach the sky in one step, so there are many more students this year than in previous years.

The intensity of the competition is very high, everyone has put in all their efforts, and they can pass the exam wherever they can. There is also an element of luck in learning. If you are favored by the chief examiner, you will be a scholar if you pass the college exam. , You don't have to kneel when you see an official.

If you are lucky, if you pass the provincial examination and become a Juren, you will be able to have a seat in front of the county magistrate. Although you are not an official, you are also a celebrity in the township, which can be regarded as outstanding.

Just look at the head of the county school, Ding Shan. Why he is so respected is because he has the reputation of raising people.

Wen Qiwen was bored in front of the head of the mountain, and he was in a very bad mood. When he returned to the house, he felt stuffy and messy. The environment here was not as good as at home. At least when he was at home, he studied by himself, but no one dared to disturb him casually.

These miscellaneous people get together, and it's good that they are all sincere scholars. If one of them is here to mess around, it will definitely disturb the safety of the whole room.

So I walked to the streets of Huizhou Prefecture to wander around, preparing to change my food and relax.

After all, Huizhou Mansion is the seat of the highest authority in a state. Not only is the market bustling, but the streets are also crowded with people. There is a world of difference in a small place like a city.

After walking around, my mood really improved a lot. I unconsciously compared my most familiar girl, Wen Xiuwan, with these ladies and noble ladies from real big places. Looking at it, her gestures, speech, etc. You can see the difference in other aspects.

I secretly figured in my heart that this real phoenix really cannot be compared with a pheasant with a phoenix tail.

When he was admiring the boundless beauty, he would never have imagined that the pheasant girl with a phoenix tail in his family had been sent to the Department of Education, the kind of place where people would sneer at the mention of it, and he still secretly disliked it, thinking about it. Then go back and teach the girl a good lesson, and don't lose his face in high school in the future.

Faintly heard many passers-by whispering, and many little maids would whisper to their own ladies that there seemed to be some novel milk on the first floor, refreshing and refreshing, delicious and refreshing, so I had to try it.

Out of curiosity, I also headed for the first floor of Huizhou Mansion.

He is not greedy for novelty, he is a person who brings critical review and uncovers the first floor, including the false mask of the Shen family, to experience it for himself.

This new product on the first floor is definitely inseparable from the evil warmth of the Shen family in Nanhe Village.

"Please, guest officer, are you yourself or are you waiting for someone?" Xiao Er warmly greeted him, knowing that the expensive Wen Qiwen on the first floor had nine taels of silver that many families put together as money for him, so he felt very confident. With a cheap folding fan in his hand, he tapped his chest lightly.

Said only one person.

He was greeted to the lobby on the first floor. Wen Qiwen was still a little reluctant about this, thinking that as a student like himself, he should be treated courteously, and he should have a private room, or a more elegant place.

But seeing the surrounding environment that is already overcrowded, he endured his breath and didn't even look at the menu that Xiaoer brought up, "No need, just bring up a copy of your newly launched milk dishes, let's go down .”

Xiao Er had a troubled face, and said a little embarrassedly, "My lord, I'm really sorry, we do have a new milkshake, but... the shopkeeper's arrangement, this can only be given away but not sold, and one person can only get it. One serving, give it a try."

Wen Qiwen was very happy when he heard that he didn't need to spend money. He didn't expect there to be such a fool. The new product launch doesn't cost money, but seeing that Xiaoer didn't intend to go down to help him pass on the meal, he asked loudly , "Then go down and pass it on, young master, I will taste a few, don't you think that a student like me who came to take the college examination is not qualified enough?"

Xiao Er didn't dare to offend anyone. Recently, the shopkeeper has been saying that he should greet students from far away. This is also a manifestation of Daliang Guo's emphasis on Confucian knowledge, but...

"Don't be angry, my lord. It's... not a small bad greeting. The shopkeeper has ordered that the new milkshakes are only given to guests who spend more than ten taels or have a custom-made banquet. I..."

Wen Qiwen almost suffocated, he spoke a little loudly just now, the diners sitting on the first floor, and the wealthy ladies who were talking about milkshakes on the street before all turned their eyes around, and there was a lot of interest in their eyes. ridicule.

Wen Qiwen, who only has nine taels of silver in his body, and the money he pours out is not up to other people's standards, would like to disappear in the world, shame on him!
Sure enough, as long as there is something related to the Shen family and warmth, it will be a hindrance to him!
