Jiaohu

Chapter 100
The book boy at the door went in to announce, and Zhao Huniu was waiting at the door.

The Guibang was hung in the Li County Academy, but Zhao Huniu reckoned that Guo Yinshu should have returned after reading the list.
The bookboy went in for a while before coming out,
Seeing that there was nothing behind him, Zhao Huniu raised an eyebrow.

"My lady, Guo Sheng hasn't come back yet after visiting Guibang. Otherwise, please ask me to go to the school to find him?"

"Excuse me, where is the school?"

"Ah, my lady, go along this road and turn right when you get to the second intersection. After you see a peach forest and plum forest, go around to the back and you will find our county school."

"Okay, thank you very much."

"Young lady, you are welcome."

The bookboy continued to sweep the front of the academy with a broom, while Zhao Huniu turned around with the beef in her hand and walked in the direction pointed by the little bookboy.

Strange,

It stands to reason that at this moment, it is time to come back after reading it; Zhao Huniu thought that maybe Guo Yinshu had already gone home first, but he didn't expect that he hadn't come back yet.

There are not many pedestrians in front of the school, but there is a place opposite, but there are many people around - Zhao Huniu thinks that is where the Guiban is posted,

With just one scan, she found that Guo Yinshu was not among the group of people.
what,
weird,

Where did this kid go?

It's all here, why don't you just go and see how many people have won this year in this small Li County.Thinking of this, Zhao Huniu squeezed into the crowd.

She has good eyesight, and it is not difficult to read all the names written on the huge gold paper, but after reading around, she did not find Guo Yinshu's name,
Zhao Huniu read it again,
Indeed no.

I see,

Zhao Huniu understood.

Guo Yinshu sat on the stone bench,

He leaned against the gray wall behind him and sighed softly.

miss

Although I didn't think that I would definitely pass the exam for the first time, but when I saw that my name was not on the list, I still had mixed feelings in my heart.

Thirteen people were selected in Li County, and five people were selected in their academy alone, but none of these five people had his name.

Like everyone else, Guo Yinshu congratulated the students who won the exam with a smile on his face.
Just like others, I hide the loss in my heart with words.

The rest of the people went back after watching the list, congratulating them at home, or looking for ways to relieve their sorrows—whether they won or not, they seemed unwilling to stay here.

Only Guo Yinshu still stayed here, but he found a remote and quiet place, and felt sad alone.

Thinking of his mother who has worked so hard to train him for so many years, Guo Yinshu became more and more concerned about his failure.

If it's just for him, if he doesn't pass the exam this year, he will have to take the exam again in three years.

But if you work harder, maybe you don't have to wait for these three years.If he wanted to tell his mother like this, telling her to wait for him for another three years, Guo Yinshu would really feel guilty.

And Zhao Huniu,
Guo Yinshu knew that Zhao Huniu was a strong personality, and she was much more decisive than her mother in what she did in daily life; in the whole Brassica Village, although many people gossiped about her behind her back,
But to say that she has the ability, no one can say that she is not.

Guo Yinshu naturally wants to be capable, and the idea of ​​a male lead outside and a female lead inside makes him secretly compete with himself,
This time he lost the ranking, but when he went back, he still had to worry about comforting her.

Ugh.
This peach and plum forest is where all the students of Li County have won a prize, even if they are too shy, to plant a peach or plum sapling on credit.

Who and when this custom first started is unknown.
The only thing that future generations can know is this peach and plum forest.The stamens are fragrant in spring, and the peaches and plums are fragrant in summer. When the peaches and plums are ripe, the fruits will be picked and distributed to passers-by at the gate of the school.

Guo Yinshu looked at the forest with fallen leaves,
Now it's neither flowers falling, nor fruits - peaches and plums have been picked long before the fragrance of golden osmanthus,

What is left is the autumn leaves that have survived for two seasons but have to wither slowly.

Ugh,
No wonder the ancients mourned autumn,
If the spring breeze is proud, it will be "a clear sky and a crane rowing above the clouds";

Ugh.

"What are you doing hiding here?"

The sudden sound startled Guo Yinshu,
He originally hid here to see that no one would come to this place, but he didn't expect to be discovered.Taking a closer look, the person who came was none other than Zhao Huniu, whom he didn't really want to meet right now.

An inexplicably awkward atmosphere spread between the two.

Zhao Huniu looked indifferent,

She looked up at the sky, and the peach and plum trees here grew tall and dense, covering most of the sunlight.

"Don't sit in some dark places. If you sit for a long time, your bones will be brittle. You still need to bask in the sun more."

As she spoke, she lifted the stewed beef in her hand,

There is still a jug of wine, I don't know when she made it.

"I don't know if there is a reason not to drink alcohol outside the gate of this school,"

Guo Yinshu was stunned, then shook his head,

"Probably not." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Huniu sat down in the empty seat opposite him.

"Do you still have the dagger I gave you?"

"Bringing,"

"take it out."

Guo Yinshu took out the dagger and handed it to Zhao Huniu; Zhao Huniu unfolded the dagger neatly, and then picked up the oil paper wrapped with braised beef.

Guo Yinshu saw how Zhao Huniujiu used a dagger to slice the stewed beef into small pieces,
Her movements are so smooth and flowing, one can tell that she is used to using a dagger; she sliced ​​the stewed beef in half and spread it on the oiled paper,

Zhao Huniu just wanted to pick the leaves next to her to wipe her hands, when Guo Yinshu saw this and handed her her handkerchief.

She wasn't too polite, so she wiped her hands with Guo Yinshu's handkerchief.

"It's a pity there's no wine glass,
But since you and I are husband and wife, it doesn't matter if we drink from the same pot."

Before Guo Yinshu could speak, she saw her pry open the seal with a dagger.

All of a sudden, the aroma of wine was tangy.

"The Baicao wine of the past ten years can't be regarded as an insult to this elegant place," Zhao Huniu was obviously very satisfied with the strong yet clear aroma of the wine,
Pushing the jug in front of Guo Yinshu,
"You drink first."

Guo Yinshu looked at Zhao Huniu, then at the jug on the table,
He reached out and took it, raised his head and poured it into his mouth.He drank too much, the mellowness of the wine was not tasted, but Guo Yin's face was flushed with choking.

"Hahahahaha——

Well, without losing the heroic spirit of a man! "

Zhao Huniu took the jug and drank it like Guo Yinshu - she didn't choke, put down the jug with a 'bang' and let out a clear whistle,
"It's just that this is a good wine. To swallow it whole, it's really a disservice to Du Kang. You still need to taste it slowly, sip by sip.

Come,
Try this stewed beef, I think it tastes very good, it is most suitable for drinking! "
