The next day, Zhulan got up and listened to the sound of rain outside the window, "This year's candidates are not very lucky."

​​

Zhou Shuren sat up and got down to the ground, opened the window and looked, "It's really not good. In the whole autumn, today's rain is the heaviest."

​​

The maid and Mrs. Song who heard the movement outside the door had already pushed the door in with the water basin.

​​

Zhulan went down to the ground and said worriedly, "I don't know if it rains in Pingzhou."

​​

Zhou Shuren, "The luck of Rong Chuan and Chang Lian is not bad, it is estimated that they are not bad."

​​

Zhu Lan said, "Wash your face."

​​

After breakfast, Zhou Shuren went to the yamen in the rain. Zhulan asked her son to recognize animals. She painted all these small animals, not modern animal pictures, but ink paintings.

​​

After half an hour, Xuehan and Wu Hao came over, Xuehan's legs and feet were a little wet, "Mother, I really hate rainy days, no matter how careful you are, you'll get caught in the rain."

​​

Zhulan pointed to the table and said, "This is **** tea. You and Wu Xi have a drink to get rid of the cold."

​​

The temperature in this autumn rain has dropped a lot. When the rain stops, it will be difficult for the temperature to rise again. Originally, the temperature in ancient times would have been lower, and her body was well nourished, so she was very afraid of the cold.

​​

Xuehan drank the **** tea obediently and looked at the brazier in the house, "This year's bamboo charcoal was bought from someone the second uncle knows, and it looks good."

​​

Zhulan smiled, "Yes, the charcoal fire is good."

​​

Wu Xi looked at the rain outside the door curtain, "With such a heavy rain, can Er Yao still come?"

​​

Xuehan replied, "It will definitely come."

​​

Therefore, Xuehan knew Yao Yao quite well. After a while, Yao Yao arrived. Yao Yao's clothes were plain and cold, but it added a little color to the not-so-excellent facial features. Some flavors are also very attractive.

​​

After Yao Yao saw the ceremony, Zhu Lan motioned to sit down and drink **** tea first.

​​

Xuehan asked Yao Yao, "How about sister Yao come in?"

​​

Yao Yao smiled lightly, "Sister is worried, everything is fine."

​​

Xuehan believed Sister Yao's words, so it's not easy to let Sister Yao go!

​​

In Zhoujia Village, Jiang Miao went around Jiang's house again. At this time, Jiang Muchen would get up early to pick up a bundle of firewood and come back, and he saw Jiang Muchen who was going out at a glance.

​​

Jiang Miao ran over quickly, "Brother Jiang."

​​

Jiang Muchen turned around when he heard the voice, "It's you."

​​

Jiang Miao smiled, "I'm with Brother Jiang."

​​

Jiang Muchen looked at Jiang Miao motionless, struggling in his heart, the little girl has a good impression on him, he can use the little girl, but he can't, he vowed not to be like his father, and finally sighed, "You shouldn't go to the mountainside. place."

​​

Jiang Miao was stunned for a moment, pursing the corners of her mouth without saying a word. She had been observing for some days, and it was the first time she took the initiative to speak out today. She was very disappointed, but she was not a faceless person. "Then I'll go back, Brother Jiang, be careful."

​​

Jiang Muchen looked at the little girl who ran away after speaking. The smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared. He was the first person to show kindness to him after hitting the dust. He walked to the side of the mountain with his eyes down. As for him, even if he moved to Zhoujiacun, the story of their family still spread, thanks to the uncle's family who came a few days ago.

​​

In the Jiang family, Xuemei was drying the mushrooms of her parents-in-law while her younger son was sleeping, when she saw her daughter come in with her head lowered and raised her eyebrows, "I'm back very early today."

​​

Jiang Miao knew she couldn't hide it from her mother, but she didn't want to hide it, "Mother, the elder brother of the Jiang family doesn't like me approaching."

​​

Xuemei looked at her daughter, "Mother doesn't like you being near him either."

​​

Jiang Miao lowered her head, "If you really use it, you won't be driving me back today."

​​

Xuemei was relieved that she didn't stop her just because she knew that her daughter was not stupid. She knew it in her heart, and the more she stopped, the more curious she became, "Come and help."

​​

Jinzhou, because Second Miss Yao wanted to stay for dinner, Xuehan went to prepare, and Wu Xian also left with Xuehan.

​​

Only Zhulan and Yao Yao were left in the room. Seeing Yao Yao looking at her, Zhulan said directly, "You're not just here to visit today!"

​​

Yao Yao stood up, "Yes, Yao Yao is here today to force something."

​​

Zhulan snorted, "So rashly used past favors?"

​​

She still remembers the letter Yao Yao wrote back then.

​​

Yao Yao bent her eyes, "Yes."

​​

Zhulan thought in her heart, "What are you asking for?"

​​

Yao Yao motioned the woman behind her to take out the things in her sleeves, the square wrapped in oilcloth, Yao Yao personally opened it, "There are 15,000 taels of silver, I would like to ask Zhou's house to help buy Zhuangzi, and then hang it in Zhou's house. in the name of the government."

​​

Zhulan took the silver notes, fifteen silver notes of one thousand taels, "What do you mean?"

​​

Yao Yao had a small smile on the corner of her mouth, "I know that there are more ways for myself."

​​

She originally planned to become a monk this year, and the preparations were almost done. The elder brother had no choice but to tell her that the emperor intended to give her a marriage. No, money is the most important thing, but it's a pity that she only changed 15,000 taels calmly in a year.

​​

Zhulan accepted the bank note, "What do you want from Zhuangzi?"

​​

Yao Yao smiled lightly, "Just make up your mind."

​​

Zhulan smiled, and she said that Yao Yao's face was not just to take care of the county magistrate Shen, but this man took advantage of Yao Houye's mind to find a way for her.

​​

In the evening, when Zhou Shuren came back, Zhulan talked about it, "I listened to Yao Yao, it seems like she is about to get married."

​​

Zhou Shuren, "This girl is not an ordinary person. Since she has expressed her intentions, she has ten."

​​

Zhu Lan said, "I don't know who I will marry Zhou Shuren snorted, "Then it depends on the emperor, the capital is very lively recently! "

​​

Zhulan asked, "But what happened?"

​​

Zhou Shuren, "It's just a dog bites a dog's hair, but Yao Wenqi is completely exposed. Recently, the fifth prince has lost a lot of people, and Yao Wenqi, who has been enduring it, can't bear it anymore. The liveliness of the capital is very exciting."

​​

Zhu Lan chuckled lightly, "The sons before and after fought with him, and the fifth prince later, Yao Wenqi didn't want to bear it anymore, but he couldn't bear it any longer, and he would lose his heart if he continued to bear it."

​​

"The lady is right, so the emperor is still very powerful. He used the pieces in his hand to force Yao Wenqi to resist step by step, waiting for Yao Wenqi to play the cards first."

​​

Zhulan said quietly, "Wait, there will be even more excitement next year!"

​​

Zhou Shuren also thought of Shen Yang, there was indeed a lot of excitement!

​​

This year's candidates in Jinzhou are really unlucky. Except for the sunny day of the first day of the exam, the rain has not stopped for the next few days, and the quilts brought in absorb water again. Clothes are not dry, the whole exam is over, come on, most of the weak scholars are sick.

​​

He Shu also unfortunately fell ill. He didn't have any good injuries, but this time the illness was a little more aggressive.

​​

When Wu Hao came back from Lord Wang's mansion, Zhulan asked, "Have you seen someone? Is He Shu okay?"

​​
