Chapter 66 Chapter 66

In the end, An Chuxia still didn't twist Mutan and was taken off her shoes and socks.

I saw two watery blisters on her thumb and little finger.

This time Mu Tan showed no mercy, took out a silver needle from the medical box, pierced the blister quickly and accurately, broke the blister and applied medicine.

Mu Tan didn't do any unnecessary actions, and after finishing the treatment neatly, he was about to put the silver needle and medicine back into the medical box, but was stopped by An Chuxia, "Let me use this first, Miao Miao may also have blisters on her feet, I'll go Let her deal with it."

Mu Tan nodded and handed the things to her.

After two days and two nights of heavy rain, the sun finally came out today.

The morning sun gradually rises, the air is soaked in the fragrance of green grass, and the chirping of birds on the branches becomes moving.

The horse is eating the green grass beautifully there.

An Jinchen cooked meat porridge in a ceramic pot, and served it with the unfinished noodles bought from that family last night. This was their breakfast today.

At this time, there was still meat porridge to eat, and fortunately An Chuxia thought that he would have to stay in the examination room for a long time in the township examination.

I heard the teacher tell them about the environment of eating, drinking and sleeping after entering the examination room, and the food provided is very casual, not everyone can eat and be full.

In order to have the physical strength to continue the exam, it is better to prepare some food and bring it in.

Not to mention a place to sleep, a board, a desk for exams during the day.At night, it is put together with the wooden boards they sit on, which is the place where candidates sleep.

After hearing this, An Chuxia thought of making some food that can be stored for a long time and can also satisfy hunger.

To meet these two conditions, it must be meat.

It can be cooked into meat rice or meat porridge. It is also good for snacks, and jerky is the best choice.

In ancient times, cattle were not allowed to be slaughtered casually. It was impossible to make beef jerky, and the meat of domestic pigs was too fat. Wild boar with thick fibers was the most suitable.

So An Chuxia returned home from Songjiang Mansion with a sharpened hatchet, went to the mountains to search for a few days, hunted a wild boar, and came back, making all the meat jerky enough for them to eat on the way back.

After An Chuxia came over to help break the blisters on Gu Fangmiao's feet and apply medicine, the two of them went to a small river not far away to wash.

Everyone just sat down and started eating breakfast.

An Chuxia and Gu Fangmiao ate half of a pancake and drank a bowl of porridge.

The rest of the men finished the Zamian pancakes and quickly packed up the toilet utensils and got on the carriage.

Then he hurried towards the provincial capital again.

An Chuxia and Gu Fangmiao were asked by everyone to try to sleep as much as possible in the carriage, because tonight Yinshi will start to go through the search and enter the examination room.

There is not much time left for the two to rest.

An Chuxia and Gu Fangmiao also understood that after getting into the carriage, they covered themselves with the quilt and fell asleep quickly.

Ling Yun knew that the girl surnamed An inside was the one his master liked, so he didn't dare to take it lightly, and tried his best to drive the carriage as fast as possible.

Mu Tan is not idle either, he knows some things to be used in the imperial examination.

Afraid that time was too tight and there would be too little time, I checked the test basket for the two girls to see if all the items needed for the scientific test were prepared.

After reading it, as expected, both of them prepared enough paper, ink, pens and inkstones for the imperial examination.

It looked like someone had already checked them out.

That person was none other than Gu Tongsheng. Who else could make the things used in the imperial examination so finely, and even prepared two writing brushes for each of them.

No more will be allowed to be brought in.

Mu Tan put the test basket back, saw An Jinchen and Run Song resting on the carriage, and leaned against the carriage to close his eyes.

Because everyone stayed up all night last night, several men took turns driving the carriage on the road afterwards.

Ling Yun and Ling Feng also thought that An Jinchen and Runsong were nice people.

As for wood sandalwood, two people should not comment~
Maybe it was because they were too tired last night, An Chuxia and Gu Fangmiao didn't wake up at noon, except for An Jinchen and Runsong who were driving the car, no one else stopped to eat.

We didn't stop until the afternoon, had a hot meal in a passing small noodle restaurant, and bought some food for the road.

I also bought a bag of bean cake mixed with grass for the two horses.

After continuing on the road, An Chuxia's heart felt a little cold, because according to the travel time, they were already too late.

It's just that everyone has worked hard for so long, and no one has said anything about giving up.

Whether you can make it in time or not, you have to go to the provincial capital this time.

After dark, Gu Fangmiao leaned her head on An Chuxia's shoulder, a few tears soaked into her clothes.

An Chuxia patted Gu Fangmiao's back lightly, and comforted: "It's okay, Sister An will accompany Miaomiao to take the exam next year.

Next year we will take the Jieyuan test and go back, the teacher will definitely be happier! "

Gu Fangmiao sniffed, and said in a hoarse voice: "Sister An, do you know?
My father died shortly after I was born, and my mother left me and went back to my grandparents' house. I was brought up by my grandfather and grandmother.

They not only hope that I will live a happy life, but they also hope that I can support the Gu family.

My grandfather once said that even if I don't become an official, I still hope that I will be able to open a college like Changqing College after I get a good reputation.

This way he won't fall anymore, Gu's family ancestor's reputation. "

Gu Fangmiao raised her arm and wiped her tears, "I know that my grandfather gave up the scientific examination, and he felt ashamed of his ancestors for so many years.

I have always wanted to fulfill this wish for my grandfather. I was enlightened at the age of three, and I have worked hard for 13 years until I was sixteen this year.

Just like this, I didn't even enter the examination room, how could I be reconciled. "

An Chuxia didn't expect to have such a heavy burden in her heart when she usually looked at the heartless little girl, so she patted her heartily to comfort her.

Runsong, who was sitting in front and driving the carriage, was so distressed that his whole heart ached. The little girl was so sensible at such a young age, how could she not be loved and cherished.

The carriage finally arrived at the gate of the provincial capital before midnight, looking at the high city wall and the tightly closed gate.

Everyone's faces were quite ugly. Even if they arrived, it didn't matter, the closed city gate would not be opened easily at night.

An Jinchen was going to kick the city gate, but Runsong stopped him.

If you kick the city gate for no reason, it’s okay to see that the guards at the gate don’t care about it. If someone with a bad temper comes out and beats you, you have to bear it.

But Run Song pulled An Jinchen away, and the city gate was still kicked open.

Everyone looked at the young man who kicked the city gate in surprise.

The guard guarding the city gate inside was finally awakened by such a loud noise, cursed and climbed up the city gate with a lantern, and looked down at An Chuxia and his group.

He shouted in a very bad tone: "Get out, I knocked on the gate of the city in the middle of the night, and I went out to beat you up, and there was no way to explain it."

Ling Yun, who was dressed as a middle-aged coachman, didn't talk much to the soldiers watching the city gate. He seemed to flick it lightly, and a black gold token melted into the night and hit the soldier's forehead with precision.
