In a blink of an eye, it was the day of Xiao Liulang's exam.

Gu Jiao got up early, made noodles, steamed a basket of steamed buns with white noodles, and cooked a pot of wild mushroom soup.

The wild mushrooms were collected on the mountain, and the first time they were collected had already been eaten. These were newly collected in the mountain yesterday, and there were still many left. She planned to carry them to the market to sell them in a while.

In fact, she also picked fungus, but fresh fungus is poisonous and must be dried before eating.

While waiting for the meal, she went back to the house to take medicine.

The wounds on her wrist and the back of her head are gone, and the medicine is almost finished, but the ointment is relatively durable, and there are more than half of it left.

On the other side, Xiao Liulang also got up.

Gu Jiao knew that he was studying very late last night and didn't disturb him in the morning, but he was still so early.

Gu Jiao put the tableware and chopsticks in order and gave him a small half bowl of wild mushroom soup. This was because he was worried that he went into the examination room to find a latrine, which was not full.

But I don't know if it was Gu Jiao's illusion, but I always felt that Xiao Liulang's small eyes were a little resentful.

The exam was going to take a whole day, so Gu Jiao packed steamed buns and water.

After a while, she didn't know what to think, and she stuffed ten more copper coins into the bag.

Xiao Liulang watched her stuffing the copper plate, his eyes moved, but he didn't speak.

Gu Jiao handed him the packed baggage: "I have already paid for the car, and I have called to say hello, so I will send you directly to the vicinity of the academy."

"Yeah." Xiao Liulang responded, took the bag, and walked out the door with a cane.

Gu Jiao looked at his little lame leg and resisted the thought of sending him to the entrance of the village. Presumably he wasn't happy either.

When Xiao Liulang arrived at the entrance of the village, Uncle Luo’s ox cart was already parked under the locust tree, and many people sat there, all of whom were villagers who brought their own side dishes and eggs to the town to sell.

When the villagers saw him, they smiled and snorted at him.

Xiao Liulang is a scholar. He looks cold on weekdays, but he doesn't have much air. Anyone who wants to read a letter or reply to a letter will come to him. Although Gu Dashun is also a scholar, but Gu Dashun is in a private school during the day, and goes home at night to study hard. The villagers rarely bother Gu Dashun.

There is one last seat on the ox cart, which should be reserved for him.

Just as Xiao Liulang was about to go up, he felt a figure swaying past him and blocked him.

The other party held the bullock cart with one hand and the other figure behind him with the other: "Shunzi, hurry up!"

It was the mother and son of the Zhou family, the great house of the Gu family.

The Zhou family blocked Xiao Liulang strictly and did not give Xiao Liulang a chance to get on the bullock cart at all.

On the ox cart, an aunt said, "Shunzi's mother, Rooku came first."

Gu Dashun stopped when he got into the bullock cart.

He turned his head, looked past his mother, and glanced at Xiao Liulang.

Xiao Liulang's eyes were cold and his expression was indifferent.

Zhou Shi nonchalantly snorted, "I, Sunja, want to take the exam! What's wrong with him coming first? Can I delay my Sunja exam by coming first?"

Everyone in the village knows that Gu Dashun is a promising person. He was admitted to the county school a while ago. He is a scholar. I heard that he doesn't have to kneel and salute when he sees the county magistrate.

Although Xiao Liulang is a good guy, he is not as important as Gu Dashun's future.

If Gu Dashun is developed, it will not only honor the ancestors of the Gu family, but also bring the entire Qingquan Village to his honor.

Everyone was silent.

"That..." Uncle Luo said embarrassingly, "Rurouro... is also going to take the exam."

When Gu Jiao came to Uncle Luo last night, she made it clear to Uncle Luo that Xiao Liulang was going to take an exam in an academy. He also gave him two more coins for this.

Uncle Luo was quite puzzled. The little fool of the Gu family who did not deal with Xiao Liulang seemed to be a different person when speaking and doing things.

But before he had time to ask more, Gu Jiao left.

Hearing that Xiao Liulang was also taking the exam, the Zhou family was not at all relieved to take the exam. Can Xiao Liulang's exam be compared to her son's?

On the other hand, Gu Dashun looked at Xiao Liulang in astonishment: "You...are you going to Tianxiang Academy too?"

"Um.

"Xiao Liulang responded lightly.

When Xiao Liulang first came to the village, he was already a child. At that time, Gu Dashun was also a child. Later, Gu Dashun was admitted as a scholar, and Xiao Liulang was still a child. Gu Dashun did not like Xiao Liulang so much.

"You haven't been to a private school for half a year..." Gu Dashun shook his head.

The meaning is obvious, Xiao Liulang couldn't pass the test at all.

And Uncle Luo, who originally planned to persuade a villager to make a seat for Xiao Liulang, silently held back his words.

If you can't pass the exam, then don't bother.

Uncle Luo took out the purse.

Going to the market is two copper plates, a little bit three copper plates, Gu Jiao gave two more, a total of five copper plates.

Uncle Luo counted the copper plates back to Xiao Liulang, and Gu Dashun was pushed into the ox cart by Zhou Shi.

It's just that he hadn't been able to sit still, when a thin, bony hand suddenly stretched out from behind him, grabbed his back collar, and pulled him off the ox cart!

Gu Dashun was two years older than Xiao Liulang. He was nineteen this year. He was a sturdy young man.

Zhou Shi was so frightened that he hurried to help Gu Dashun.

"Who is it!"

She turned back angrily.

Then, together with everyone else, they saw the thin and small Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao's eyes were cold, revealing an uninhibited chill.

Everyone was stunned.

"Gu Jiao, why are you crazy!" Zhou Shi still thought that he was so bold, but it turned out to be this little fool.

"Take the copper plate back." Gu Jiao ignored the Zhou family at all, only looked at Uncle Luo whose hands were frozen in the air, and frowned impatiently, "I made the ox cart last night, you can go back if you want to. , and refund everyone's car money."

"What do you mean?" Zhou Shi asked.

"Literally, Xiao Liulang can't get on the ox cart today, so no one is allowed to get on the ox cart." Gu Jiao said.

"Why are you?" an aunt hummed.

Gu Jiao slowly took out the sickle from behind: "Just because I'm a fool?"

Everyone's face turned pale when they saw the knife.

Zhou Shi, who wanted to rush up to pull Gu Jiao's hair, was too frightened to go forward.

Stupid... Stupid really can do anything.

But the fool didn't like seeing Xiao Liulang in the past, why would he have trouble with the Gu family who has always been close to him?

Not to mention the doubts of the villagers, even Xiao Liulang's eyes flashed a trace of astonishment.

"If you want to invite Old Master Gu, hurry up." Gu Jiao said while blowing the sickle that she had sharpened.

Zhou Shi really wanted to go.

He was stopped by Gu Dashun.

It is impossible to reason with a fool, and it is not good to delay the exam.

Although Xiao Liulang will also miss the exam, but Xiao Liulang could not pass the exam, and if he misses it, he will miss it. He is different.

In the end, Uncle Luo thought of a way to let the Zhou family spend money to buy one of the villagers' dishes, and the villager gave the seat to Gu Dashun.

Gu Jiao didn't care whose seat Gu Dashun bought.

However, in order to prevent another accident on the way, Gu Jiao carried a sickle on her back.

The bullock cart has no extra seats for her.

She dragged her thin and small body, walked a dozen miles on foot, and sent Xiao Liulang safely into the examination room.
