Chapter 55 Visit
"On the sixth day of the Dragon Boat Festival in the 22nd year of Yuanzhang, the schoolwork is getting heavier, and the midnight is approaching, but the lights are still on. Mr. once accepted Baikui, with a clear mind, and a few words can save me from insomnia.

The second son plays truant repeatedly, indulges his passions, it is not a day's work, it has become a habit, and it is useless to beat him to death, on the contrary, it will increase the resentment,
What's more, the virtuous and handsome should be appreciated and loved, and the stubborn should be sympathetic. The teaching of him should be a long-term thing, and it should not be exposed to the cold.
Starting tomorrow, I will go to school with him and go home together. "

In the early morning of the next day, under Wu Yi's reluctance, Wu Jin accompanied him until Mengxue, handed it to Mr. Mengxue in person, and went to study in Mo Mansion by himself, worked hard at Zhaixue during the day, and then went to Mengxue to pick up Wu Yi after class. , and asked Mr. Meng Xue about Wu Yi's behavior this day.

When she returned to the bakery, Wu Yi let her parents restrain her, and she couldn't go out to make troubles. She was so miserable that she almost thought that she was in jail.

And Wu Jin picked him up and went back to the bakery, then rushed back home non-stop, studying ink and laying paper, to do the endless homework.

After seeing off and picking up, Wu Jin unknowingly sent a scorching heat over, and fell asleep in a hurry. Once she fell asleep, she couldn't be shaken.

In mid-July, when Cheng Ting went to Jeju to prepare for another test, Wu Jin had already peeled off a layer of skin. By August, his skinny face had no flesh, as if a layer had been directly covered on his bones. Wheaten skin.

On the seventh day of August, all colleges in Kuanzhou were on holiday, and the teachers and students were restless for the next day's exam.

The students and gentlemen were so restless that the whole city of Kuanzhou suddenly became tense. Taoist temples and temples were flourishing with incense, and smoke was rising from the incense burners from morning till night.

Wenchang Pavilion even held a blessing ceremony, and respectfully invited Emperor Wenchang to come down to the mortal world to pray for the candidates.

The items sold on the street are all related to the Fajie test, such as pens, inks, paper and inkstones, durable dry food, test baskets, and hard lumps of salt, there are countless.

Wu Jin's things had already been prepared, and on the seventh day of August, Wu Jin checked everything again.

In the examination basket were his admission ticket, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, a rolling bag made of oilcloth, and a regular candle.

The food for the market is also placed in the bag, which are oil cakes, moon cakes, rice cakes, and dried meat prepared by Wu's mother.

In the package, there is also copper and copper. Each candidate in the tribute courtyard is equipped with a stove and a basket of charcoal, which can be used to boil water, cook soup, and cook rice.

Wu Jin's clothes are also newly made jackets—although it is stuffy and hot now, once autumn enters Kuanzhou, it may become cold at any time. It is cold, and the square scarves, clothes, and shoes must be able to withstand the severe cold.

On the eighth day of the lunar new year, Yinshi had just arrived, the rooster did not crow and the dog did not crow, and the sky was so dark that no fingers could be seen. Only the watchman outside who told the time was beating and drumming. Wu's mother never slept, but lay on the bed with her eyes closed. The same is true for the father. Hearing the sound of the drum, both of them opened their eyes.

Mother Wu hurriedly got up and said in a low voice, "I'm going to cook."

Wu's father nodded, and also rolled over and climbed out of bed: "Speak softly, let the boss sleep a little longer, cook some dry rice, so he can't hold back his hunger."

With his hands on the ground, he went out with Mother Wu, helping to light the fire.

It was pitch black outside the house, without even a gleam of moonlight, and a sudden gust of wind blew up, already carrying a chilly air, unlike other seasons that slowly transition from heat to cool, but a sudden change, which makes people unprepared.

Wu's mother came out to wash rice and vegetables, the wind was blowing harder and harder, Wu's mother held back a sneeze, and was about to bring the washed rice into the kitchen when she suddenly heard a loud sneeze from the door.

Immediately afterwards, there were three "dong dong dong", which made people panic in the dark night.

Just when Mother Wu was nervous, she trembled from the sudden sound of the door. Even Father Wu, who had just lit the firewood with a fire, was startled. He came out of the kitchen with his hands and looked at the door.

Why would someone knock on the door at this time?
Wu's father and Wu's mother looked at each other, and they both saw uneasiness in each other's eyes, but the door persisted and rang three more times.

Mother Wu walked quickly to the door and asked in a low voice, "Who?"

An extremely sweet voice came from outside the door: "I'm Mo Lingfeng, I'm looking for Wu Jin."

As soon as she heard that her name was Mo Lingfeng, and that she was looking for Wu Jin, Wu's mother quickly took off the latch and opened the door. Looking outside, there really was a little girl standing outside the door with a female guard.

Mo Lingfeng raised his head, sneezed loudly again in the cold wind, and rubbed his nose with his hands.

Mother Wu looked at her and stood there, not daring to move, even her breathing slowed down.

She has heard many stories about Mo Lingfeng from the toothmaid on Shishi Street, she knows that Mo Lingfeng is as big as Wu Yi, she knows that Mo Lingfeng goes in and out of Yuhua Street, and she knows that Mo Lingfeng is the heart and soul of Mo Jiedushi, in her mind In the house, there is an arrogant Mo Lingfeng who is full of pearls and emeralds.

But now, this person suddenly appeared in front of her concretely.

There is no head full of jewels, no arrogance and rudeness, and the words Mo Lingfeng are the folds pressed on the skirt of the red gold collar, the tightly raised patterns embroidered on the clothes, the streamer emitting under the lantern, and the light lifting of Danfeng's eyes. The majesty revealed by the slow sweep.

Her gestures, every breath, gave birth to an aggressive wealth, and her upbringing was different from that of ordinary ladies - ordinary girls do not go out at this time.

Mo Lingfeng stopped sneezing and looked up at Wu's mother: "Auntie, can I go in?"

"Yes, please come in quickly." Wu's mother frantically opened the door wider, watching Mo Lingfeng step over the threshold and step into the small courtyard.

Yin Nan followed closely behind, scanning in all directions at the same time.

Wu's mother used her busy schedule to hide her bewilderment. Seeing that Wu's father was still standing on the porch with his hands propped up, she quickly stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Go and boil the water. I can make tea later."

After finishing speaking, she hurriedly moved a chair and placed it beside Mo Lingfeng, and then moved a table to set out the melon seeds and peanuts fried by herself.

She said anxiously: "Miss Mo, sit down, what's the matter with you coming here at this time?"

Wu Jin is going to take an exam today, she is worried that Mo Lingfeng's arrival will cause side effects.

Mo Lingfeng looked up, and with a blink of his long and thick eyelashes, he blinked the narrowness of the courtyard into his eyes: "I'll ask him to take the exam."

Then she sat on the chair, and the chair immediately made a "creaking" sound. The wood was thin and not strong, which was very harsh.

Mother Wu was astonished when she heard this answer, and she didn't know how to answer, so she had to rush into the kitchen again, hating that the water boiled slowly, and after finally waiting for the water to boil, she hurriedly used a thick porcelain bowl to brew A bowl of tea was carefully placed in front of Mo Lingfeng.

Mo Lingfeng looked up at Wu's mother.

She doesn't have a mother, so she is curious about Wu's mother.

When she quarreled with Cheng Ting before, Cheng Ting said that she was an unwanted puppy, and when she saw other people's mothers, she couldn't help but wonder what her own mother was like.

After reading it, she withdrew her gaze and looked down at the tea bowl: "It's time for Wu Jin to get up."

The broken tea leaves are sinking and floating, and the tea foam sticks to the rough side of the bowl, but it still exudes the tea fragrance.
