Unparalleled Fortune in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 49 Invitation

Three days passed quickly. On the day Tong Xuewen came out, Tong Cheng'er and Shu Mulu were waiting for him in the carriage at the gate of the Gongyuan.

Before Tong Xuewen came, the two saw the candidates walking out of the Tribute Academy with pale complexions and sloppy footsteps. Some of them were even carried out. This posture made them feel worried.

It seems that this room is really not easy to stay in. It is said that the college entrance examination is a single-plank bridge for thousands of troops to cross. Tong Cheng'er said that the imperial examination is what it is, and the college entrance examination is nothing.

In order to advocate humanistic care, Tong Cheng'er was required to install air-conditioning in the modern college entrance examination room before she traveled.

Nowadays, those who can be named on the gold list are really those who are excellent in both knowledge and physique, but they are a bit biased, which is not good.

Tong Cheng'er and Shu Mulu waited anxiously, and then saw the servant at home leading Tong Xuewen over.

Gradually walking in, the two of them looked at his face, and found that although it was not rosy, it was definitely not as pale as the examinee they saw just now. It looked like he had accidentally stayed up late. , I can't sleep well, so it's understandable.

All in all, Tong Xuewen thinks it looks better.

The servant helped him into the carriage, and Shu Mulu began to ask for his health. Tong Xuewen looked pretty good, and he was still in the mood to talk and laugh.

After returning home, Tong Xuewen rested for a day, and then continued to take the exam. In this nervous mood, the exam passed just like that.

Tong Xuewen passed the test in a safe and sound manner, without any accidents. Alhatu asked him, and he even said that his performance was better than expected. After all, he ate better, and his thoughts would be clearer when writing. .

Contrary to Tong Xuewen's feeling that they performed exceptionally well, the Juren who were assigned to the number room near Tong Xuewen, originally everyone had similar conditions, couldn't eat well and sleep well, but there was one special person who was different from others, and the food was particularly delicious.

Holding a cold snack and drinking warm water, smelling the bursts of aroma coming from Tong Xuewen's room, it was so hard to swallow, so I didn't say that I performed abnormally in the end, but the feeling was definitely not very good.

The Juren in the number room near Tong Xuewen didn't say too much, but there were also a lot.

After the exam, it was inevitable that someone would organize some gatherings. Tong Xuewen was not very interested in these, so he didn't go there much. As a result, he didn't know that he had become a "famous" person in the mouth of this year's candidates.

It's not because of his "talent" name, but because he caused "public indignation" by eating instant noodles in the No. [-] room.

In an elegant room in Wangyue Tower.

"How does Brother Chen feel this time?"

Brother Chen said: "It's not bad, it's just a normal performance."

The person who spoke at the beginning couldn't help but began to complain: "Speaking of which, the difficulty of the exam paper is moderate, but I'm not very lucky, and a brother sitting next to him actually started cooking in the numbered room. The aroma of the rice will rise when it is time to eat, and the delicious snacks prepared by the book boy will become hard to swallow."

Brother Chen was a little unconvinced: "How is it possible to cook in room number?"

It is said that a gentleman cooks far away from the kitchen, and a famous scholar cooks in the number room, which sounds too absurd.

"How is it impossible? I'm not the only one who can prove this, and I don't need to use it as a joke."

Brother Chen is a little convinced now: "Really?"

"Of course it's true."

Conversations like this happen from time to time in large and small restaurants and inns in the capital, and when Tong Xuewen didn't know about it, he had an extra "specialty" in cooking.

Although Tong Xuewen didn't go out very much, some friends from his classmates would come to the door, and when they got together, it was inevitable that someone would say this as a joke.

At first, Tong Xuewen also laughed, but when he smiled, he felt that something was wrong. Why did this sound so familiar, and it seemed to be him?

Then I asked again, and it was him who was talking about, and it was fun to listen to my own jokes.

But in the end it was the credit of the instant noodles, he couldn't take the "credit", and there was no need to hide this matter, so Tong Xuewen told the story of the instant noodles, but he didn't believe it at first, after all, it was said that the aroma was very strong, how could it be possible that he would not know it? Made by the cook.

There was no other way, Tong Xuewen had no choice but to ask the boy to bring some instant noodles over and demonstrate it himself, and everyone could not believe it until they smelled the fragrance.

Those who can pass the provincial examination and become a juren are generally not stupid people, so they naturally thought of a lot. This kind of instant noodles can be used in the provincial examination, and it really lives up to its "convenient" name.

It is a pity that those who are expected to pass the exam cannot get the benefits. Those who have no hope of passing the exam and plan to continue the exam think that it would be great if they can buy this kind of instant noodles. In February, the weather is cold!Who doesn't want something warm.

So instant noodles became popular, but Tong Xuewen was the only one who showed it, and no one knew how to make it.

Tong Xuewen told the family about this matter, and after Shu Mulu heard about it, he had some ideas, but the things involved in the entrance were the mouths of famous people.

Even if Shu Mulu is optimistic that the instant noodles can make money, it is not easy for her to make this money.

So I didn't mention it.

She didn't mention it, but someone wanted her to.

No, it should mean that someone wanted Tong Cheng'er to mention it.

"Gege, the invitation post from the shopkeeper of Mochiyuelou."

"I don't remember any past contact with Wangyuelou. Why did the shopkeeper send me posts for no reason?"

"The slave doesn't know either, or you should read the content of the post first."

Tong Cheng'er took the post, opened it and looked at it, and understood the reason, it turned out to be related to instant noodles.

It made Tong Cheng'er frown, how did this matter come to her.

It's one thing for her to be lazy, but it doesn't mean she's stupid. Although she made the instant noodles, people outside the mansion don't know about it. Others thought that Shu Mulu's beloved son was so eager to get the people in the mansion to make it.

Wangyuelou directly found her head, which means that the other party found out about their house, and no one wants to be checked to the bottom, so Tong Cheng'er was very unhappy.

"Gege, do you want to go to Moon Tower?"

"go."

Being able to find her head quietly, the background of the Moon Tower should not be underestimated, she really wants to see who is behind it, it is so rude.

Tong Cheng'er is very free to come and go in Tong's house. She told Mr. Shu Mulu when she greeted her in the morning, and Mr. Shu Mulu was only surprised that she would go out. As for the safety issue, Mr. Shu Mulu was not worried at all.

To be honest, there are many people with sharp eyesight in the capital. She believes that no one can bully her daughter without eyesight. Moreover, there are people with good skills around her daughter who can guarantee her safety.

Tong Cheng'er went to Wangyue Tower. Because she went there in the morning, there was no one there. She was greeted by the shopkeeper as soon as she stepped in.

"I've seen Tong Gege, our boss is waiting for Gege!"

Tong Cheng'er showed no expression, nodded and said, "Please lead the way."

The shopkeeper took the man to the second floor, then pointed to a private room and said, "My boss is in this private room, please be kind."

Tong Cheng'er pushed the door open and asked Ru Lan and Ru Xue to wait outside for a while.

As soon as she entered, she saw a familiar face, Tong Cheng'er looked surprised and said, "Si elder brother?"

Yinzhen said: "Tong Gege is surprised?"

Can it be unexpected?
Tong Cheng'er thought that he was the elder brother, so she hurriedly greeted him and said, "Please greet the fourth elder brother."

"There is no one else today, you are welcome, sit down and talk."

Tong Cheng'er is not someone who would wrong herself, and upon hearing this, she sat across from him.
