Farmers' group pet: the blessings of powerful ministers are soft and deceitful

Chapter 160 Back to Academy

Let's say that Xu Xingling arrived at Lianxi Academy in Changping Prefecture City in two days in a mule cart.

The academy was built near the mountain, and the mule cart driver could not see the end of the stairs up the mountain at a glance.

So he turned his head and glanced at the frail scholar.

Said: "How about it, do you want to help you move up the mountain?"

Xu Xingling pondered for a moment, coughed lightly, and said with some spinelessness: "Do you need to pay extra?"

Although he has brought some money now, he should save it and use it well.

After all, in another four months, they will get married, so it's always right to save money.

The driver asked this question because he wanted to earn some extra money.

Unexpectedly, the coachman opened his eyelids, looked him up and down, and said, "Forget it, you don't need money. If you become an official in the future, just remember more about our Zhaohe Township."

Xu Xingling was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Generally, after winning the exam, the imperial court appoints errands, and they will not transfer people back to their place of origin, for fear that the officials will link up with their relatives in the place they belong to."

Driver: "..."

The air was silent for a moment before the coachman said: "Forget it, since I have already sent you here, it won't take long to send you up. My family is from Daoxiang Village next door. Wait for another two years." , I want to send my son to Master Xu Academy to learn how to read and write. If he grows up and can be admitted to Lianxi Academy like you, then he will be a glorious ancestor. Now take this opportunity to go up and get lucky."

When Xu Xingling heard the words "forget it", she thought the coachman was packing up and preparing to leave.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, he saw his three steps turned into two steps, throwing his scroll on his back, and then carrying a big food box in each hand, he lifted his foot and was ready to go up the stairs.

Xu Xingling was a little astonished: "You take so much, and you have to walk up the stairs next, can you do it?"

The coachman didn't turn his head, and said directly: "You should worry about yourself, don't look back, I will wait for you up there."

Xu Xingling: "..."

In the end, the coachman was right. When Xu Xingling went up, the coachman had already been resting at the gate of the academy.

When he came up, he handed over all the things to him, took one last look at the magnificent facade of the academy, and then turned and left.

There is a mountain chief guarding the gate of the academy. After seeing him, he checked the student's badge before letting him go.

He also smiled and said: "I came to the academy so early, and it will be a long time before school starts, at least after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."

Most students will wait until then to come.

He recognized this student, and he came quite early last year.

Xu Xingling smiled and said, "Come here early, let's read a book first."

Afterwards, he moved all his things back to the house. Lianxi Academy now has a room for every two people. There is a patio in the middle, which is regarded as a public area. There is a room on each side of the patio, and only one person lives in the room.

It is also an independent space.

Now the classmate at the opposite door has not come back, so he went back to his room first.

I took out the sheets and quilts that had been washed a few years ago from the cabinet, spread them on the bed again, took a rag, and wiped all the dusty places.

So in the evening, I filled my stomach with the remaining dry food, went to the bathroom to clean and wipe it, and then went back to the house to rest.

As soon as dawn dawned, he looked at the time, and after cleaning up, he went out with a big food box.

Mr. Zou Congru has moved his family to Changping Prefecture, and set up a yard in the city below the academy. I don't know if he is now in the academy or in the city below.
