Chapter 40 Going to the Town

Xing Yi and An Zhongyuan didn't see An Zhinan when they came out after packing the fish. Guessing that An Zhinan must have gone to the backyard to find Mr. Liao, Xing Yi turned his face and hurried to the backyard.

An Chongyuan saw Xingyi's expression was wrong, thinking that something happened, so he followed closely.

The four of them met at the fork in the backyard. Xingyi was relieved to see Mr. Liao showing his small face, and then saw An Zhinan walking towards him talking and laughing, as if he understood something.

"What are you doing in such a hurry?"

Xing Yi stepped forward and cupped his fists: "I didn't see Nan Nan, so I came here to see if he came to the backyard."

Mr. Liao waved his hand, and the smile on his face remained unchanged: "It's okay, there is no girl in my family who can't go, so don't worry about it in the future."

"Yes."

Different from An Chongyuan's doubts, An Zhinan guessed that the master was disturbed when he didn't want to practice calligraphy, and thought that he couldn't be so reckless in the future.

"What are you thinking about, little girl, you are frowning all the time at such a young age, and you are not afraid of becoming ugly when you grow up." Elder Liao turned his head and saw the precious apprentice frowning, stretched out his hand to smooth it, and then continued: "Let's go, I don't mean to go to you at noon Do you want to eat at home?"

"Oh."

Time passed quickly, and it was time for An Yanshu to go to the town to take the county examination.

This day, the whole An family didn't go out to work, and they all packed An Yanshu's luggage at home.

Mrs. An was really worried about her grandson going to the town alone, she turned her head to look at her son and said, "Chongyuan, this time you go with Yanshu, I don't worry about the child being young, and, by the way, let's go to the town to have a look." Whether there are good grain seeds, the current harvest is getting lower every year, and it will not work if it continues like this.”

An Chongyuan nodded: "Understood, mother."

Old man An sat smoking a pipe, thinking of the harvest, his face lost his smile, and he said in a deep voice after a while: "If you see a good grain, you can buy it. It doesn't matter if it is more expensive. As long as the crops are harvested well, next year A batch of seeds can be left behind, old woman, I will give my son some more money later, and go out to make a poor family rich, this time it is about the future of Yanshu, so I can’t let the child suffer.”

"Understood, you don't need to say it," Mrs. An rolled her eyes at Old Man An, got up and went back to the house to get the money.

An Zhinan rolled his eyes, and quickly followed grandma into the house.

"How did you get in?"

An Zhinan smiled and stepped forward, holding Mrs. An's hand and shaking it back and forth: "Grandma, I want to go too, I want to go to town with my brother."

"No, on weekdays you can go to the milk whenever you want, but this time you can't, your elder brother is going to take part in the county exam, don't join in the fun, Nan Nan, be good, learn from Mr. Liao, and I won't go this time gone."

An Zhinan knew that if grandma refused, there was no possibility of agreeing, so he had no choice but to give up, standing aside and watching grandma take the money.

This time I went out in the town, and An Chongyuan was with me, so the family didn't worry too much. Mrs. An brought out three taels of silver, which was enough for both father and son.

There are still two days left before the county examination. These days, An Yanshu has been studying at home and did not go out. He did not step out of the room until today when he had to pack his luggage.

Watching grandma handing the money to daddy, An Zhinan walked up to the elder brother, pulled his sleeve with his small hand and asked in a low voice, "Brother, are you nervous?"

An Yanshu smiled gently, pinched her sister's face and shook her head: "Don't be nervous, grandpa and husband have said, this time I'm just going to see and see, I just need to do my best, you are obedient at home, wait for my brother to come back and bring you delicious food dim sum."

An Zhinan nodded obediently: "Okay, then brother should also take care of himself, don't put too much pressure on himself."

Until her sister was thinking of herself, An Yanshu's smile became more gentle.

After packing their luggage, the family had lunch at home, and An Zhongyuan took his eldest son out to town.

An Zhiyan ran away long after eating, and An Zhinan was bored at home, so after thinking about it, he went to the master's place.

"Your brother is going to town today, why don't you spend more time with him at home?" Elder Liao was sitting in the yard drinking tea, and immediately smiled when he saw the little girl coming in.

Xingyi served on the left and right, and looked at An Zhinan with a smile when he heard the words.

"Don't mention it, my father took my brother to the town, and I wanted to follow, but grandma refused."

Seeing the little girl slumped on the chair with no image, Mr. Liao spoiled him with eyes, stretched out a finger and nodded his little head, and said with a smile, "Is that why you want to go to town?"

"Think about it, I'm afraid that my brother will be nervous when he takes the exam for the first time, and I'm afraid he won't perform well, so it's always good to talk to him, hey."

"You, you, sighing all the time at such a young age, I don't know who you look like, don't you just want to go to the town, and I just happen to have a place to live in the town, if you really want to go, go home and pack your luggage, just let your father With your brother in the master bedroom, there is no need to stay in the hotel, and since there are still two days before the exam, I will reluctantly answer some difficult questions for your brother in these two days."

An Zhinan sat down from the chair in a jerk, and looked at Master brightly: "Really?"

"Hey, when did Master lie to you?" Old Liao pretended to be angry.

"Hey, Master, you are the best. I'll go home and tell my grandma, Master, wait for me," An Zhinan quickly ran out after speaking.

Seeing the disappearing figure of the little girl, Mr. Liao laughed: "This girl, haha, is always so reckless."

Xingyi also smiled: "It's not something you're used to."

Old Liao said proudly instead of ashamed: "That's right, such a lovely and filial girl, who can not pamper and love her."

An Zhinan ran into the house as fast as he could and headed straight for the main room.

"Oh, Nan Nan, what are you doing running so fast, you're not afraid of falling," Mrs. An hurriedly got up, pulled her granddaughter to her, and wiped the sweat off her forehead.

An Zhinan didn't care about this, he took grandma's hand excitedly and said: "Grandma, my master said that he has a residence in the town, so that elder brother and father can live in it, and he can use these two days to prepare time for elder brother. lecture."

Old Mrs. An and Old Man An were shocked.

Liao Lao's ability is obvious to all An's family, especially every time Yan Shu talked about Liao Lao's knowledge and admiration, if Liao Lao said that he would no longer accept disciples, An's family would have sent An Yanshu there, although An Yan The book says that he doesn't care about grades, but old man An still hopes that his grandson will have good grades in his heart, and the An family counts him as the most diligent in studying.

Old man An's hand holding the cigarette rod trembled slightly, and he asked after a long while, "Yes, but is it true?"

An Zhinan nodded desperately: "It's true. Master also said that he would take me to the town with him. Grandma, if you agree, I will pack my luggage and go to the town with Master to find my father and elder brother."

"All right, all right, grandma will pack your luggage for you, hurry up and tell your master that we agreed."

How can Mrs. An disagree, with Xingyi and Mr. Liao here, she is not afraid of her granddaughter running around and being left unattended, and she can give her son and grandson a place to live, and she can teach her grandson for two days. This is a great thing.
