At a banquet, the guests and hosts are happy, and there is no lack of discernment.

When Song Jiu and Song Yue left, it was almost evening, and the bright sunset glow on the horizon fell on a patch of red walls and green tiles, giving off a warm orange light.

The carriage rumbled along, and through the car window, the lively street scene outside came into view.

Suddenly, Song Yue opened the car curtain: "Stop the car."

After hearing this, the boy driving the cart quickly tightened the reins and stopped the horse: "Hello!"

"Miss Fourth, what's wrong?" the boy asked.

"I'm going to get something." Song Yue said, turning to Song Jiu: "Jiu'er, wait for me in the car."

Song Jiu nodded.

Song Yue got off the carriage and walked toward the opposite side of the road. Because she was walking in a hurry, she didn't see the person walking in the diagonal direction, and the two of them bumped into each other.

"what!"

bah—

Song Yue was very skilled. She swayed briefly and then stabilized her lower body without falling.

So the scream came from the other party.

And something unexpected happened, the man was hit and fell to the ground, and his things fell to the ground.

"Young Master, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. Are you okay?" Song Yue quickly squatted down and said apologetically.

"It's not my fault, girl, I just didn't pay attention when I was walking down here." The man quickly got up from the ground, waved to Song Yue cautiously, and then quickly picked up the dropped things.

Song Yue casually picked up the rice paper at her feet and handed it to him.

The man took it, pursed his lips shyly and said thank you, then lowered his head and looked at Song Yue's feet: "That... girl... can..."

He hemmed and hawed for a long time, unable to formulate a complete sentence. Instead, his face turned red and it was difficult to express what he wanted to say.

Song Yue was looked at a little baffled, and she followed his gaze downwards...

Then she saw a piece of sesame cake being stepped on by her feet!Song Yue's face stiffened for a moment, and she immediately understood what the man meant. She took a step back in a hurry. Before she could speak, she saw him bend down and carefully pick up the sesame biscuits, holding them in his hands as if he had found a treasure. I patted the dust on it carefully and peeled off the layer when I saw it was really dirty.

Is even a piece of sesame seed cake so precious?

Song Yue wanted to say that she was trampled to death.

"Well... let me buy it for you again."

The man carefully wrapped the biscuits, then shook his head at Song Yue: "No need."

In the afterglow of the setting sun, his sword-like eyebrows were cut like knives, his eyes were like bright stars, and his face was handsome, like a painting of beauties carefully polished by a master. His book robes were washed white and looked old, but they were clean.

From the looks of it, he is a scholar.

But my family is a bit poor, otherwise I wouldn't be obsessed with the biscuits that fell on the ground and was stepped on by her.

The moment Song Yue was stunned, the scholar had already walked away.

He stopped in front of an old locust tree, where a table was propped up. On the table were simple pens, inks, paper and inkstones. On a low stool on one side, a girl of about ten years old was sitting. When she saw the man, the little girl The girl stood up happily.

The man handed her the sesame seed cake in his hand and touched her head. She didn't know what he said. The little girl was stunned for a moment, then she shook her head with a smile, broke off half of it, and wrapped the other half again.

Song Yue guessed that she was the scholar's sister. The brother and sister depended on each other. Maybe they traveled long distances to accompany their brother to Beijing to take the exam.

The boy driving the carriage came over after seeing Song Yue hit someone.

"Fourth Miss, are you okay?" He looked at Song Yue who was in a daze and asked with concern.

Song Yue shook her head and looked at the young man and gave some instructions.

The young man glanced in the direction of the scholar and responded respectfully: "Yes, I will go right away."

After that, he walked towards the bun shop nearby.

Song Yue quickly walked into the weapons shop.
