Chapter 231 Less Trouble
After listening to Xiao Yingzi’s words, Shi Zelan thought for a while and shook his head at her.
Xiao Yingzi looked at Shi Zelan and said with envy: "Xiao Lanzi, you are so lucky."
Shi Zelan nodded in agreement. They went to the river to wash the herbs and returned to the foot of the mountain. Keep pulling herbs.
In the evening of this day, they returned home with a full load.
In the evening, Xiao Yingzi and Aunt Liu said: "Auntie, can I take Xiao Lanzi's master as my master?"
Aunt Liu looked at her: "Stop dreaming, others will not accept you as their apprentice." , you don’t have the spirituality of Xiaolanzi.”
“Auntie, you can’t coax me.”
“If I coax you, will others coax you? >
Stop thinking and live your life with peace of mind.”
On the day when the imperial examination results were released, the neighbors met to see the results.
Shi Zelan saw Xiao Yingzi again, her eyes were much calmer.
Shi Zelan looked at her: "Xiao Yingzi, are you working very hard these days?"
Xiao Yingzi shook his head: "No.
I just want to I understand, everyone has their own destiny, and there is no need to force it.”
Shi Zelan smiled after hearing this. If their practitioners really believed in fate, they would not be able to continue practicing.
"Xiao Lanzi, you don't believe in fate?"
Shi Zelan thought about it seriously and said: "I heard people say that there are arrangements in the dark, so I believe that it will be good. Luck is destiny."
"Ah, you can still think like this."
Xiao Yingzi thought about Shi Zelan's words seriously and looked at her: "Xiao Lanzi. , you are indeed as my mother-in-law said, you are a spiritual woman.”
The place where the government released the results was crowded with people. Shi Zelan and Xiao Yingzi stood on the street corner proactively.
"Xiao Lanzi, do you think that brother will be on the list this time?"
'I think it's very promising. I heard that he studies very hard. "
"The official is here, let a way out. ”
The crowd retreated, and Shi Zelan took Xiao Yingzi and took a step back.
"Xiao Yingzi, why didn't Xiao Qiuhua come out to watch the announcement of the results today?"
"There were too many people, and originally my mother-in-law didn't allow me to come out to watch the fun.
I said I would talk to you It was only after we were together that my mother-in-law allowed me to come out.”
Shi Zelan originally wanted to sit in a nearby teahouse, but when she passed by, she saw that the teahouse was full of scholars.
“Ah, I saw that the first place is the talented man from Jiangnan.”
Shi Zelan and Xiao Yingzi listened carefully to what was going on in front of them. When they heard the family name, they hurried back.
When they arrived, the messenger just arrived at the house. When the fireworks were set off, the door of the house suddenly became lively.
When the family gave away Xiyin, Shi Zelan and Xiao Yingzi also stepped forward and took a handful in their hands.
The courtyard was full of people. Shi Zelan and Xiao Yingzi stood at the door of the courtyard and looked at it. They quickly backed away.
When the two of them walked back, they happened to meet Xiao Qiuhua and the others. They asked happily: "Is that brother on the list?"
After Shi Zelan and Xiao Yingzi nodded, they all laughed: "Three years later, no matter whose brother takes the imperial examination, we will still send them to the examination room?"
Xiao Yingzi glanced at them, He just smiled and talked about the excitement of that place.
After the two parties separated, she whispered to Shi Zelan: "Three years later, everyone's marriage will be decided.
They now say that they will send their neighbor's brothers to the imperial examination room "Can they fulfill it then?" Shi Zelan glanced at her. These days, she didn't hear anything wrong with the people next door.
However, Xiao Yingzi seemed to have become mature and realistic all of a sudden. When Shi Zelan saw the door of his yard, he smiled and said to Xiao Yingzi: "I'm in."
Shi Zelan did not invite Xiao Yingzi to sit in the yard, but Xiao Yingzi Looking at Shi Zelan's back, I remembered her mother-in-law's words.
"Xiaoyingzi, you are different from Xiaolanzi. She is more spiritual than you, and you have a better life than her."
Xiaoyingzi did not dare to tell her mother-in-law, she was actually envious Shi Zelan who followed his master around.
Shi Zelan knew about Xiao Yingzi's friendship with her, and gradually retreated.
When Xiao Qiuhua passed by the door of her yard, she would call out casually: "Xiao Lanzi, do you want to go to the well to wash clothes?"
"No, I got up early and washed my clothes."
Shi Zelan walked out of the courtyard door and saw Xiao Qiuhua carrying a basket of dirty clothes: "Aren't there many people at the well at this time?"
"There are so many, I just wanted to borrow them. Chatting with everyone while washing clothes."
Shi Zelan watched Xiao Qiuhua walk away with a happy expression at the door of the yard. She returned to the yard and said to Shi Xiaoliu: "That house seems to be lively. For two days.”
"Those who are on the list will also take part in the palace examination."
"Xiao Liu, should we go to the teahouse to hear the news?"
Shi Xiaoliu looked at the expression on Shi Zelan's face , thought for a while and said: "Let's go tomorrow, it should be too late at this hour."
The next day, the brothers and sisters and Xia Yu went to the teahouse. As expected, there were many scholars in the teahouse, and everyone was on the guess list. Huiyuan, will he be the number one scholar after passing the palace examination?
“We went to see Huiyuan, and the bodies of the scholars from the south of the Yangtze River were indeed not as strong as those from the north.”
"Little girls like the appearance of Jiangnan talents."
Shi Xiaoliu glanced at Shi Zelan, saw the excitement in her eyes, and said to her: "Would you like to go and take a look? Yuan?”
Shi Zelan immediately shook his head: “I’m very busy, I don’t have time to spare.”
The three of them sat in the teahouse for a while, but they didn’t hear any new news. I feel the sour smell on some readers.
In the evening, they sat under the eaves and chatted. Xia Yu felt something: "At this time, the smart scholars are reading behind closed doors.
Only smart scholars would gather outside to discuss knowledge. "
" If scholars from other places on the list want to know the news about the government, they will also look for some safe places and will never act in a high-profile manner. "
Shi Zelan listened to them talking about the news and glanced at Xia Yu: "Xia Yu, have your father and uncle sent you any news recently? "
"Yes, they will come back and stay for a day or two the day before the No. 1 Scholar parade.
We left the capital on the third or fourth day of our parade. ”
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan exchanged glances. Xia Yu looked at the two of them and said, "Wanyu sent me a message that they have encountered some troubles in the south."
"Are you going to the south to help? ?”
Xia Yu quickly shook her head: “I asked my uncle, and my uncle said we don’t need to go there.
The things Wanyu provokes are small things that her master can solve. . ”
“Wanyu is a very present person. She leaves a deep impression no matter where she goes. ”
Shi Zelan was very moved and said, Xia Yu glanced at her: "Do you think this is a good thing?"
"It depends on people and things.
She is a little impulsive and petty, but You are not vicious."
Xia Yu looked at Shi Zelan and sighed: "I think you have a good temper and will save you a lot of troubles."
