Chapter 11580

Zuo Junmo ordered the servants to take the prey back and count it carefully. Then, when he was about to go back, he found his niece Wang Yanke getting out of the carriage. Although the girl came over to salute him, Zuo Junmo could tell at a glance that Wang Yanke did not look very happy.

"Is Yan'er tired?" Zuo Junmo asked with concern. When he brought Junlan and her daughter back from Hangzhou, Wang Yan was only a few years old and very thin. She ate leftovers at the Wang family and was as thin as a little chick.

There were even marks on her arms and legs where some servants of the Wang family had secretly pinched her. The scene of the little girl being sick with a fever and hugging Zuo Junmo's neck and calling him daddy was still vivid in her mind.

At that moment, Zuo Junmo was overwhelmed with the urge to have a daughter.

No wonder Brother Fengtang dotes on his daughter so much that even his son has to stand aside. In fact, no man can resist the temptation of a little girl.

So over the years, Zuo Junmo almost watched Wang Yanke grow up and become a well-educated, gentle and quiet girl.

In his heart, he had long regarded Wang Yanke as his own daughter.

"Uncle, I'm not tired. Yan'er is very happy to go hunting with my brothers and sisters."

Hearing Zuo Junmo's question, Wang Yanke raised her head and a sweet smile appeared on her face.

“But I see that you don’t look well.” Zuo Junmo asked again. Were you frightened by seeing those struggling injured prey?

"Ah? Do I look pale?" Wang Yanke subconsciously raised her hand to touch her face, then smiled and said, "Maybe I felt dizzy after seeing the blood of the prey earlier. My mother said that I have fainted at the sight of blood since I was a child. I will be fine after resting for a while."

"Well, then don't look at it any more. Go home and have a rest. Your mother is in your aunt's room."

"Okay uncle, I'll be back soon."

Wang Yanke bowed to Zuo Junmo again and walked away with her maid.

Zuo Junmo looked at Wang Yanke's back as she walked away, feeling secretly relieved. Girls change a lot when they grow up, and the girl is becoming more and more beautiful. As her uncle, he must strictly control her marriage.

Cousin Junlan has been secretly saving up a dowry for Wang Yanke in the past few years, without telling her husband, the shopkeeper.

In fact, it is not necessary.

With his uncle around, even though he is a cousin, he had already prepared Yan'er's dowry.

There was a stream outside Zhuangzi. The water was not very deep, and the deepest part probably reached Luo Wuyou's knees.

But the water is really clear, almost transparent, and the colorful pebbles under the water and the small fish hiding among the stones are clearly visible.

Luo Wuyou washed his hands, scooped up a handful of water in his palms and washed his face again.

I also took two sips.

"happy!"

"Sister Wuyou, the stream water is cold. Drink less, or your stomach will hurt."

"It's okay. I'm not that delicate little girl. I drink often."

"Then...does Aunt Qing'er know?"

"Hehe, what do you think?"

"do not know?"

"That's nonsense. If my mother knew, she would never let me drink it."

"Aunt Qing'er is doing this for your own good. Girls should try to drink more hot water."

Looking at Zuo Jinling's serious expression, Luo Wuyou found him a little interesting.

"Brother Jinling, what exactly do you want to say? You're not trying to say that there are always a few days every month when girls should avoid eating raw or cold food. Is that what you want to say?"

Zuo Jinling's face flushed red, redder than the red fish in the stream. He didn't even dare to look at Luo Wuyou, lowered his eyes, and whispered, "I read in the book that this is what it said..."

A hand patted his head, and he raised his head to meet Luo Wuyou's smiling face.

"Hey, what are you thinking about? You are going to take the imperial examination in the fall. Why do you have to read books about women? Do you want to be a gynecologist in the future?"

Zuo Jinling was not embarrassed this time. Instead, he raised his head and looked into Luo Wuyou's eyes: "There is no conflict between taking the imperial examination and reading some books on health and medicine."

"Oh? So confident? Okay, then I'll wait for your good news in the fall."

"Ok!"

"If you pass the exam, I will give you a reward."

"What reward?"

"What reward do you want?"

"Can I give you any reward?"

"Of course! As long as I can give it. If you ask me to pick the stars in the sky, I can't give it to you."

Zuo Jinling suddenly stood up, his eyes bright and his spirits high, as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

"It's a deal. I will definitely pass the exam, and then ask Sister Wuyou for a reward."

"Haha, if you get first place, the reward will be doubled!"

"No, I don't need double the money. I just want a reward for getting first place!"

"That's right. You should be careful not to be greedy. You know that you can't chew too much." Luo Wuyou washed his hands and face, and stood up, raising his palm towards Zuo Jinling: "We are all grown up now. Pinky hooks and ties are what Xiao Tuanyuan and the others like to do."

"Come on, let's not make pinky promises, let's high-five to make an alliance!"

"it is good!"

"Snapped!"

The two men slammed their palms together. The covenant officially took effect.

Luo Wuyou never really took this high-five agreement to heart, because in her opinion, it should be easy for Zuo Jinling to pass the provincial examination in autumn.

But it is not an easy task to win the championship in such a large Changhuai Prefecture.

Her uncle had done this kind of thing in the past, but is he an ordinary person?

Definitely not!

Of course, Luo Wuyou thought this not because he felt Zuo Jinling was inferior to his uncle, but because his uncle had been studying all his life since he was a child.

I heard from Grandma and my mother that during the most crucial years when my uncle was studying, he really turned a deaf ear to the world outside and focused on reading the books of sages.

Looking at Jin Ling again, studying is only a part of his daily life. He also practices martial arts. His uncle Jun Mo has hired several masters to teach him martial arts.

Besides this, Uncle Jun Mo also passed on the Mo family's unique skills to Jin Ling. As for business, Uncle Jun Mo also kept Jin Ling by his side, teaching him by example.

So in the same amount of time, my uncle used it all to study, while Jinling had to divide it into several parts to learn different things.

When it comes to studying, how could he possibly be better than his uncle?

Therefore, it is impossible to win the first place in the imperial examination. The most you can do is to pass the imperial examination. However, passing the imperial examination is already a very remarkable thing!

What Luo Wuyou didn't realize was that from the moment the two of them high-fived to form an alliance, the gears of fate had already started turning, and she had stepped step by step into the trap carefully dug by a certain vixen.

It was nearly a mile from the stream to the Zuo family compound in the village. The two men did not ride horses again, but walked side by side, leading the horses, chatting and laughing.

Along the way, they met many villagers coming in and out of the village. When they saw Zuo Jinling, the young master of the village, they would stop and say hello.
