Chapter 21

After signing up for the county exam, An Chuxia was left in a private school by her teacher Gu Tongsheng to prepare for the exam with her granddaughter.

"Sister An! If I can't do it,

Grandpa asked us to do so much homework and read so many books about imperial examinations every day, this is the rhythm that will exhaust us! "

Gu Fangmiao's petite and round body naturally collapsed in the chair, and slid down as if she had no bones.

He took a breath and said until he was comfortable lying down.

An Chuxia was sitting on another chair without raising her head. She was reading an essay that was written only after the provincial examination.

Over the past year, she has basically read all the books in this study.

The books inside include astronomy and geography, travel notes, and autobiographies of celebrities. Even the Gu family's rare books, the teacher did not hesitate to show her.

After that, it was carefully preserved and put away.

With the knowledge that An Chuxia has now, even his teacher Gu Tongsheng himself once said that he can no longer find out the truth.

Because he exhausted all the questions he had learned, An Chuxia would answer them in less than a cup of tea, and some questions even exceeded his expected answers.

The answer is more complete than the answer he came up with himself.

Take the county test on the eighth day of February.

The first ray of dawn slowly rises on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, and the weather in February in the south has warmed up. The grass grows and warblers fly, and many flowers are in full bloom.

Runsheng drove the ox cart towards Lushan County with a whip in his hand, An Chuxia, Gu Fangmiao, and An Jinchen who accompanied his sister to take the exam were still sitting in the ox cart.

This time, there were two more Gu Tongsheng and Gu Shi who were worried and insisted on following.

As soon as the bullock cart arrived at the gate of the county seat, a tall figure walked over.

"Move to the back, I'll drive the ox cart!" Run Song patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said.

Runsheng looked at him in surprise, "Brother, why are you here?!"

Run Song ignored his younger brother, turned his head and glanced at the little girl lying on an old woman's lap.

Then he said to Gu Tongsheng, his wife, and An Chuxia's brother and sister: "In the past few days, the county examination, there are many people living in the inn, and it will be very noisy.

If you don't mind, you can temporarily live in the small courtyard I rented. It is not only quiet, but you can also cook for yourself.

This also avoids the problem of too many people living in the inn and untimely food supply.

and some other inconveniences. "

Runsong's voice is calm and well-regulated, giving people a very safe feeling.

Because Runsheng often came to pick up An Chuxia from school, Gu Tongsheng and Gu Shi also knew Runsheng.

Just now I heard him call the man driving the car Big Brother, and I knew that this man was a man who knew everything.

So they didn't say no.

When An Chuxia asked the old couple for their opinions, Gu Tongsheng and Gu Shi thought that living in the inn would indeed cause these problems.

If it was someone else, they would definitely not agree.

But the old couple could see that the brothers and sister An Chuxia trusted this tall and strong man very much, and he was also Runsheng's real brother.

So they have nothing to worry about, so they agreed decisively.

At this time, the old couple didn't know that their granddaughter was being targeted by a wolf with a big tail.

If he knew, it would definitely make him spit all over his face, but now the old couple don't know.

Runsong got the consent, and drove the ox cart directly to the small courtyard where he lived, and then stopped at the door.

"…arrive!"

An Chuxia and the others got out of the bullock cart and picked up the things they had brought. Runsong opened the door and led them in.

The square courtyard was clean and tidy, with three main rooms in a row, east and west wing rooms on the two sides, and a well at the corner.

An old tree in the yard has just sprouted.

An Chuxia gave Runsong a funny look, it seemed that Brother Runsong was well prepared.

Seeing that his little thoughts were discovered, Runsong touched his nose, turned his eyes away, and led everyone into the house.

Everyone found a seat and sat down, and the main seat was given to Gu Tongsheng and his wife.

Runsong brought his younger brother and An Jinchen to serve tea, looked at Gu Tongsheng and Gu Shi and said, "Mr. and Madam, is it okay to live in the main landlord's house these days?"

Gu Shi was taken aback, the main landlord's house is the room where the host's family lives, and it is generally not allowed to be borrowed by guests.

Seeing the respect for his old couple in Runsong's bright and energetic eyes, Gu Shi and Gu Tongsheng looked at each other, and said politely: "Our old couple are still in good health, so we don't need special care, just give us a place to live. Enough."

Run Song tried his best to soften the hard lines on his face, and said in a soft voice: "Then it's decided, the old lady and husband live in the east room, and Xiao Xia and Miss Gu live in the main room in the west room.

The three of us brothers lived in the East and West Wings. "

After the room was arranged, Runsong couldn't see it was too late, so he wanted to take them out for lunch.

In the end, she was stopped by Gu Shi, who was used to frugality. According to her, the food outside was expensive and not delicious, but the food at home was clean and nutritious.

She was also afraid that a man would not be able to negotiate the price when she went out to buy vegetables, so she asked Brother Runsheng to take her out to buy the ingredients.

Gushi was still muttering when he came back from grocery shopping, that Runsong couldn't live a life, and bought so many chickens, ducks and fish all at once.

With a simple and honest smile on Runsong's rough face, he let the old man chatter.

After dinner, Gu Tongsheng personally checked whether all the things needed for An Chuxia and his granddaughter Gu Fangmiao's test baskets were prepared.

Then the two candidates were asked to enter the room early to rest.

Gu Shi watched the two fall asleep, and then walked out of the room.

Back in the east room, Gu Tongsheng was holding a book and reading it under the lamp, when he saw Mrs. Gu coming in, he asked, "...are you all asleep?"

"The two girls are always sensible, if you tell them to go to bed early, how dare they not listen?"

Before Gu Shi came in, he brought a basin of hot water for Gu Tongsheng to wash.

Gu Tongsheng had always been helpless with his old wife, so he took the towel handed over by Gu Shi and wiped his face and hands.

An Jinchen was as worried as the old couple. Thinking of his sister's previous three county exams, he was nervously walking around the room right now.

"Brother Ah Chen, I beg you, don't go around like this again, you make me dizzy!"

Runsheng sat on the bed after washing his feet, and couldn't help but watch An Jinchen walking up and down, his eyes almost turned into mosquito coils.

Run Song walked in and patted An Jinchen on the shoulder, comforting him: "Xiao Xia looks different from before, this time I will definitely pass the exam."

An Jinchen "..." Thank you brother, I have been comforted!
In the west room of Zhengfang, two little girls were sleeping on a big bed, suddenly there was a sound of whooping in the dark room.

"Sister An! Why did you spank my ass!" Gu Fangmiao said aggrievedly while covering the place where she was spanked.

An Chuxia's helpless voice came from the darkness, "Xiao Miaomiao, if you keep tossing and turning, I will kick you to the ground to sleep!"

The two of them had been lying on the bed for about an hour, An Chuxia was stunned by Gu Fangmiao tossing and turning on the bed, so that she still didn't close her eyes.

"Sister An, are you not nervous?"

An Chuxia turned over and patted Gu Fangmiao's back lightly, "Sleep! I have to get up early tomorrow, there is nothing to be nervous about, just answer what we know.

As for whether we can pass the county test, this is not something we should care about now. "

An Chuxia's mood is very calm now, and there is no such thing as nervousness. I don't know how many exams I have taken in my previous life, and my mental quality has been tempered long ago.
