Ma Jingxiu looked helpless, "Isn't it nice for this kid to call me teacher? Why did he call me brother again?"

"That's why, brother Jingxiu, you are young, and your child is very discerning, so you won't make mistakes." Su Jin said, striding towards Suisui.

"Mr. Su, the young lady has something to do today, and I specially ordered the young master and the young master to come and take you home." Gao Mu said and looked at Zhen Jingxiu again, "Young Master Zhen is also going together, the carriage is outside, will the young master take you back? "

Su Jin also said, "It just so happens that we are all dropping by. Let's go back together. Brother Gao will take you to the door of the house later."

"Someone from the house should come to pick him up. Thank you both for your kindness." As soon as Zhen Jingxiu finished speaking, two young men came to greet him.

"Master, I'm late. There are too many people and the carriage can't get in." The young man said and took the bedding and food box from Zhen Jingxiu's hand.

There were too many people outside the Gongyuan. Gao Mu held down Suisui's short leg on his shoulder with one hand, and used the other hand to pick up the quilt Su Jin was holding.

Su Jin turned slightly sideways and said: "It won't sink, I can do it. There are many people here, let's go outside."

Gao Mu was not polite and pointed to a big tree outside, "The carriage is over there, sir. Please come in front."

When Zhen Jingxiu saw Suisui smiling at him, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand to hold his little hand, and whispered softly: "Can you please call me teacher from now on? Or uncle."

Suisui nodded and grinned, "Okay, I'll try to call you teacher."

Zhen Jingxiu: "..."

Su Jin turned back and glanced at the door of Gongyuan. Candidates were coming out one after another, and there was no figure of Lin Xiangzhi in the crowd.

Su Jin said: "I don't know when Mr. Lin will come out."

Seeing that there were more and more people coming to greet the candidates, Zhen Jingxiu let go of Sui Sui's hand and urged: "Brother Su, you go back first. We will meet up another day. I will just wait here for Mr. Lin."

Su Jin looked at the crowd at the gate of Gongyuan and nodded: "Okay, see you later."

When the two came out of Gongyuan, they didn't ask each other about the exam. It could be seen from each other's relaxed expressions that there should be no difference.

Seeing Su Jin leaving, Zhen Jingxiu ordered the boy to wait in the carriage outside. He stretched his neck alone to look for Lin Xiangzhi in the crowd.

At this time, a familiar scholar came over and said hello to him, "Son, are you waiting for someone?"

Zhen Jingxiu took a look inside the tribute courtyard, smiled at the visitor and said, "Waiting for a friend, please withdraw first and see you at Qingyun Zhai another day."

"Master Zhen, it's better not to wait any longer. He hasn't come out yet. Maybe he is no longer in Gongyuan."

Zhen Jingxiu shook his head at the scholar, "No, his residence is behind mine, so he came out later than me."

The scholar lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "Young master, you still don't know, but the people in several dormitories disappeared last night. Even the people in the dormitory opposite didn't see when they left."

"What do you mean? You mean..." Zhen Jingxiu's eyes widened in shock.

Seeing that Zhenjing Xiuhui was sorry, the scholar nodded, "Yes, someone was caught cheating last night. He must be an official sent by the emperor to take him away from the Gongyuan without anyone noticing."

After saying this, the scholar cupped his hands and said, "I'll see you at Qingyunzhai tomorrow. My scholar is waiting for you."

Watching the scholar walk away, Zhen Jingxiu continued to look at the door of the Gongyuan. He was sure that Lin Xiangzhi was doing things aboveboard and would never cheat. Besides, he came from Yannan, and there was no one in the Gongyuan to help him cheat.

Although the two have known each other for a short time, Mr. Lin's talents and knowledge are far superior to those of the noble family in the capital.

After a while, the people in front of the Gongyuan left one after another.

Lin Xiangzhi's figure slowly appeared at the gate of Gongyuan.

He was holding the quilt in one hand, and the other hand was empty.

"Hey! Jing Xiu, why haven't you gone home yet?" Lin Xiangzhi walked up quickly with a smile when he saw Zhen Jing Xiu.

"How about I wait for you? Seeing how happy you are, the policy writing must be good?" Zhen Jingxiu patted his shoulder and asked.

"It's okay, pretty much what we talked about."

Lin Xiangzhi then looked around, "Brother Su, did you come out with you? Where are the others?"

"He was originally going to wait for you to come out, but the guards in the palace came to pick him up with Xiao Wailong, so I asked him to go back first."

Lin Xiangzhi had never met Su Jin before, so he naturally didn't know about Su Jin's affair.

Zhen Jingxiu said and walked out: "No one is here to pick you up. I will take you to Taiyuan Academy?"

"Being respectful is not as good as obeying orders, so I won't be polite." Lin Xiangzhi glanced around without giving up, and sure enough, the servant was nowhere to be seen.

"Jing Xiu, thanks to the beef sticks you asked the invigilator to send me these past few days, otherwise I might not have been able to survive for so many days." Lin Xiangzhi felt ashamed thinking that his smelly mandarin fish had alerted the invigilator. .

Zhen Jingxiu slowed down and waved his hand, "The beef strips are not mine, they were made by Brother Su's sister."

Lin Xiangzhi said quickly: "I will be the host someday. Jing Xiu will help me invite Brother Su out. I have to thank him in person for this."

"Boiling the beef strips in the porridge will affect the taste of the porridge a bit, but the beef strips are really delicious when chewed."

"Pfft, hahaha..."

After listening to Lin Xianzhi's words, Zhen Jingxiu couldn't hold back and laughed so hard that he couldn't stand upright.

"Jing Xiu, why are you laughing? Did I cook it wrong?" Lin Xiangzhi also felt that something was wrong, so he stopped and asked.

Zhen Jingxiu stopped laughing and said: "Who asked you to boil beef strips in porridge? That is definitely wrong. Put the ceramic pot on the stove to heat it up. Eat half the can of beef strips and then drink porridge. It will be very comfortable. "

Lin Xiangzhi's mouth twitched. No wonder he felt that the sweet porridge tasted strange like pickles. It turned out that he didn't eat it right.

On the other side, Su Jin had just sat in the car when Sui Sui rushed into his arms.

"Sui Sui, be good. This time, your uncle really stinks." He held Sui Sui with both hands and lowered his head to let Sui Sui see his hair that was already stuck together.

Sui Sui obediently stepped back and sat opposite, smiling and saying, "Aunt Lan has asked someone to prepare hot water at home, and uncle can take a bath when he returns."

After saying that, her eyes rolled around and she asked, "Uncle, are the questions in the imperial examination easy to answer? Mother said it's not very difficult."

Su Jin raised his hand and touched Sui Sui's chubby little face, "It's not difficult. If sister can enter the tribute court, she must be the first female champion in Wanling Kingdom."

In Su Jin's heart, sister knows everything, sees things clearly, and makes plans. Unfortunately, there is no precedent for women to serve as officials in Wanling Kingdom, and sister's talent is buried.

At this time, Jiang Shuyue was busy in the restaurant.

The kitchen has been cleaned up, and the craftsmen are repairing the doors and windows.

Nangong Zeyue hired another twenty handsome servants to help clean up the inn according to Jiang Shuyue's request.

"Yue Niang, the curtains and bedding inside have been cleaned up. When do you think you can go to the cloth shop with me to buy new ones?" Nangong Zeyue felt that Jiang Shuyue had a unique aesthetic. Just talking about the poems on the pillars, Juxian Pavilion added a bit of elegance.

Jiang Shuyue saw that everything was almost arranged, and nodded and said, "Let's go now."

As soon as the two walked down the first floor, they saw a young man standing in the hall looking around.

Seeing Jiang Shuyue, the man bowed and asked, "Excuse me, boss, do you still need a shopkeeper here?"

Seeing Jiang Shuyue looking at the people around her, the man said, "It's okay to be the shopkeeper's assistant."
