Chapter 199 All Approved
After ten years of studying hard, who would not want to succeed in the first place, shine on the lintel, and soar into the sky.

Some students have been preparing for this for a long time, and they are eagerly looking forward to the glory, but just in this excitement, someone suddenly tells you, don't bother, you fail the exam, isn't this like a pot of ice? Sprinkle your head with water to cool your heart?
The scholar named Lin An who stood in front of Qin Liuxi thought the same way, his face became sullen on the spot, he was very annoyed, and secretly thought it was bad luck.

He glanced at Qin Liuxi and then at Yu Changkong who was beside her, curled his callused and slightly cracked hands slightly, trying to cover them.

The two people in front of me are by no means comparable to me in terms of the clothes they wear, not to mention their extraordinary aura and natural extravagance, they are by no means ordinary people, let alone poor students like him.

Then this little boy, is he laughing at himself, because he thinks life is boring, so he uses himself to make fun of it?

Lin An was afraid of the identity of the two of them, so he didn't dare to speak loudly, so he suppressed his anger and said, "Young master, don't use Xiaosheng to get rid of him. If you are annoyed that Xiaosheng doesn't have eyes and blocks your way, Xiaosheng will just apologize to you."

As he spoke, he took a step back and made a long bow to Qin Liuxi.

Qin Liuxi was overjoyed, and said to Yu Changkong: "He is treating us like dudes. He didn't expect me to have the potential to be a dude."

Yu Changkong: It's not me, it's you!

Also, what's the matter with this child's proud look?

Lin An couldn't hold back anymore, and was about to go around her, Qin Liuxi said at this moment: "I didn't say those unlucky things on purpose because I was angry that you blocked my way."

Lin An paused.

"Although you have been selected as a scholar, you are from a poor family and your family background is meager. I think you have calluses on your fingers. I think you usually earn a little money by copying books. It stands to reason that you have a reputation as a student and can earn some money by copying books." Small money, you can get by. But you smell like medicine, you can see sorrow on your brows, and your parents are jealous in the palace. This Lord’s parents are sick, and your sun star has fallen, which means that your father is dead, so now you are here The sick one is your mother, am I right?"

Lin An's face was pale, and his fingertips were trembling.

"The smell of medicine on your body should be contaminated by your mother's brewing of medicine. The money you earn from copying books is far from being worth your mother's money for medicine. You don't have enough money, and you worry about your mother's body, so you look sad. I said you failed the exam because your parents, Gong Shaji, saw Xingyao, a mourner, and your mother, I'm afraid you don't have the fate to see you and Diyao's lintel."

Yu Changkong listened, and looked at the person opposite, with a bit of sympathy in his eyes, but it disappeared in a moment.

"A child who wants to be raised but not loved is the tragedy of a child. If you are dressed in filial piety, how can you go to the exam? How can you pass the exam if you are worried about it?"

Lin An staggered on both feet, and said with trembling lips, "My son is silent, you are talking nonsense, you are talking nonsense. You just beat and scold me when you are angry, why bother to touch my mother?"

"Whether I'm talking about it on purpose, or whether I'm right or not, you know in your heart." Qin Liuxi took out a peace amulet from his sleeve, and handed it over: "Your mother has worked hard, and time is running out. This peace talisman, if you wear it on her body, it will make her last days more comfortable, at least she will not be too tortured by illness. This is a little good fortune when you and I met."

Lin An didn't pick it up, Qin Liuxi put it on the book beside him, and said: "Mr. Xiucai will take the exam in three years time, and he will pass the exam. Your sister, don't marry far away in the future, especially someone by the water."

Lin An's body trembled again when he heard this, and he was speechless looking at Qin Liuxi.

Qin Liuxi and Yu Changkong went up the stairs, and soon disappeared between the corners of the building.

Lin An looked at the amulet on the book, his eyes were hot, he took a deep breath, held the amulet and bid farewell to Elder Wang and left.

Yu Changkong said to Qin Liuxi: "The mother of the scholar just now is incurable?"

Qin Liuxi said: "From the smell of the medicine on his body, I can still tell a few herbs. They are all for calming the nerves and taking care of the nerves. They are mainly used for conservative treatment. One of them is wild ginseng. You can see that he is wearing patches, which can be seen The family background is not good, although wild ginseng is not more expensive than ginseng, but it is still ginseng, which is not affordable by ordinary people."

She walked up the stairs slowly, and continued: "According to that kind of medicinal material, once you can't eat it, you are just waiting for death. If you ask whether it can be cured, it's hard to say if you haven't seen anyone, but judging by his face, he is not far from losing his mother. It’s going to be winter in Licheng, and the old woman who is already weak and depends on the medicine to hang her life, if the weather changes and can’t take the medicine, that’s a dead word.”

Qin Liuxi lowered his eyes and said: "Such a life, if you take it, you can live for a while, but you can't live long, why bother? The living will be sent, and the dead will return. Sometimes it is better to be liberated from a tormented body."

Her tone was a bit cold, but also a bit bearish about life and death.

Yu Changkong sighed.

However, Lin An went back to the small courtyard of his home with a few books in his arms in despair. Seeing the mess in the courtyard, he was startled and shouted: "Ni'er."

"Brother, you are back." A slender girl with slightly withered hair and a coarse dress came out of the house.

"Why is the house so messy? Where's your mother?"

Lin Ni's face collapsed, she pursed her lips, and said, "Mr. Zhu and the others came to the house and said that this year's harvest is mediocre, and Brother Zhu is going to get married too. Let us pay back the money."

Lin An pursed his lips when he heard this, looked her up and down, and asked, "Are you hurt?"

Lin Ni shook her head and said, "Mother handed over the silver hairpin at the bottom of the box."

"That's not for you." Lin An was a little anxious.

Lin Ni smiled wryly: "Brother, what is there to keep? The family owes money, and mother's medicine also needs money." Seeing Lin An's ugly face, she hurriedly said: "Brother, don't think too much, just study at ease. That's good, I've already entrusted Mrs. Jiang next door to find me a laundry job."

Lin An looked down at the little girl's hands, which were rougher than his, and couldn't tell what it was like.

Inside the room, there was a woman's voice, Lin An hurried in, but saw a thin, haggard old woman lying on the bed in the dark room, she was about to sit up when she saw him come in.

"Mom, don't move." Lin An went over to help her up.

Aunt Lin coughed a few times, and said: "Mr. Zhu has been here, the silver hairpin is worth five qian, I will hand it over, ahem..."

Lin An hurriedly followed her back and said, "Don't talk about it, mother, just give it to me. I will copy more books and return them as soon as possible."

Mrs. Lin shook her head: "I don't have a good life, only you and Ni'er. Mr. Zhu said that his aunt had a handsome talent in the south. He was eighteen this year and made a living by fishing. I can earn a few taels of silver every year, and I want to lead our Nier..."

Lin An's mind was buzzing. Marriage from afar, people in the water, all approved!

The point is not this, since the little son is right, then she said that she will lose her mother, so isn't his mother?

Lin An was heartbroken, and knelt down, holding his mother's hand, tears streaming down his face.
