Splendid peasant girl busy farming

5143 - Old Song's recommendation

Chang Huaizhou.

When Yang Yongxian rushed to Changhuaizhou to find a hotel to stay in, dragging his big and small bags, he was dumbfounded.

The test center of the township examination was set at Gongyuan, and the inns and restaurants on the street of Gongyuan were full.

Eighty percent of them are candidates who come to take the provincial examination and their family members who accompany the examination.

Yang Yongxian remembered that he came back to take the provincial examination for the first time many years ago. At that time, because the classmates from the school came together, someone helped to book a room in advance. This time he came to the examination alone, and he thought of everything except Accommodation was not considered.

Standing blankly on the street, dragging a suitcase and bundle, Yang Yongxian was tired and hungry. Years of pampering made him exhausted, and he wished to throw all his luggage onto the main road in the center of the street!
The exam is coming up the next day, and the other candidates have already settled down and are hurrying to do the last wave of sprint before the exam, but I don't even have a place to stay.

This omen is really unlucky!

It's really not possible, I can't go back like this, so Yang Yongxian gritted his teeth and dragged his things to the street a little further to inquire.

If you live farther away, it’s a big deal. It’s a big deal to get up an hour earlier than others on the morning of the exam.

"This son, please stay!"

Someone shouted from behind.

Yang Yongxian continued on his way with a sullen head. He had no acquaintances in the provincial capital, so he definitely didn't call him himself.

"Young master in front, please stay."

The voice from before was closer, and immediately, a figure ran to Yang Yongxian's side.

Yang Yongxian stopped and looked at the face-to-face man in front of him.

Compared with Yang Yongxian, who was tall and straight, the man in front of him was as short as a dwarf, but his appearance was shrewd.

The clothes on his body... are no worse than the [-]% new clothes on Yang Yongxian.

He is probably in his early forties, and speaks with the accent of Changhuaizhou.

"Why is uncle calling me?" Yang Yongxian asked, with a look of wariness in his eyes.

Seeing the guard in Yang Yongxian's eyes, the middle-aged man just chuckled, "My lord, don't panic, my surname is Song, and my family lives in the alley behind the Gongyuan. The neighbors in the neighborhood call me Lao Song."

Yang Yongxian looked at the man in front of him who called himself 'Lao Song', but did not speak, waiting for the other party's next words.

"Looking at the young master's attire, he must be a student who is here for the exam?" Old Song asked again.

Yang Yongxian straightened his waist: "Exactly."

Yang Yongxian of the old Song Dynasty gave a thumbs up: "Young master is a noble man, and his manners and conversation are also good. He will definitely be able to go to high school in one fell swoop and soar into the sky!"

Yang Yongxian liked to hear these words, and the guarded look in his eyes faded a bit, "Thank you Uncle Song for your kind words, what is Uncle Song looking for me for?"

Lao Song's eyes fell on the luggage in Yang Yongxian's hand, and he looked enthusiastic: "I want to ask if you have found a place to stay?"

Yang Yongxian shook his head: "The restaurants and inns are full, and I am going to look for them in other streets."

Old Song said: "It's probably hard to find the street over there. Even if there is one, it's probably a leftover Datong shop or a small inn in a corner. It's too far away from the Gongyuan, and the environment is noisy, which is not conducive to your son's rest and warmth. book!"

Regarding this point, Yang Yongxian naturally thought of it, but so what, something is better than nothing!
"If you can trust Lao Song me, son, you can go to my house and have not yet settled down."

"What? Your house? Isn't it convenient!" Yang Yongxian asked in surprise.

Lao Song smiled: "To tell you the truth, my family is blessed by our ancestors, and we don't have much other family property. We got a few small yards for the house."

"My family's population is too small to live in so many courtyards, so I packed up a few of them and planned to rent them out to merchants. It happened that one of the courtyards was unoccupied at the moment, and the Enke exam was held in the Gongyuan, so I made a calculation with my mother-in-law. I plan to free it up and rent it out to the students who come to take the exam.”

"Although it is not as luxurious as the Tianzihao rooms in restaurants and inns, my mother-in-law loves cleanliness and tidies up the yard properly. The environment is quiet amidst the hustle and bustle."

"In addition, it is just behind the Gongyuan. During the period when candidates are rushing to take the exam and waiting for the results to be released after the exam, it is also convenient and quick to go to and from the Gongyuan, and the price is also fair."

"Young Master, if you are interested, you can follow Lao Song to take a look. If you are satisfied, you can stay here. If it is not what you want, Lao Song, I will not force you. I don't know what you want?"

Yang Yongxian thought for a while and thought it was feasible, so he nodded.

Lao Song is a smart person, and immediately came up to help Yang Yongxian get things.

Although he is short and only reaches the position of Yang Yongxian's heart, his strong and strong arms are obviously used to doing physical work.

Those cages that tortured Yang Yongxian so much that he couldn't bear to live were in Lao Song's hands, as if they had no weight.

Lao Song stretched out both hands, carrying the luggage and leading the way, walking briskly.

"Young master, please."

"it is good!"

Yang Yongxian followed behind with a bundle on his shoulders, and followed Lao Song into an alley behind the Gongyuan.

When he arrived at the residence, Yang Yongxian found that Lao Song was not lying. In a small courtyard with an elegant environment, there were wing rooms on three sides, with flowers and plants planted in the middle, and a shared well.

"The other rooms are occupied by people, all of whom are candidates. There is also a wing room to the west. I will take you to have a look."

Lao Song lowered his voice and introduced to Yang Yongxian.

Yang Yongxian nodded. He was very satisfied with the yard, and when he passed by a side room, he heard the sound of reading inside.

Not bad, this atmosphere is what we want.

After looking it over and discussing the price, Yang Yongxian paid one month's rent in advance and settled down here.

Changping Village.

It rained for more than ten days in a row.

After autumn rain and cold, adults and children all put on jackets, like Cao Bamei, Liao Meiying, Zhao Liuer, and Xiaohua, all put colorful octagonal little landlord hats on their babies who can't walk.

No, the autumn rain finally stopped and the sky cleared up. The yard of Yang Huazhong's house was lively.

Liao Meiying, Zhao Liuer, and Bamei Cao all came here to play with their children, and the proud little landlord hats were the highlight.

Mrs. Sun, Bao Suyun and the other elders were also there. The big guys were talking about the chores and teasing the children, and the yard was full of laughter.

"Mei Ying, Yongxian hasn't sent a letter back these days, right?" Sun asked with concern.

Liao Meiying's son is about the same age as Cao Bamei's son, both about nine months old and ready to eat some soft snacks.

So Liao Meiying pinched the snacks into small pieces and fed them into the child's little mouth for him to taste the sweetness, while smiling and shaking her head with Mrs. Sun: "I didn't bring the letter back, maybe I was busy with the exam and didn't have time to send it." Believe it, when he was at home before, he said that he entered that dormitory during the exam, and stayed there for many days, eating, drinking, and messing with it."

Mrs. Sun nodded repeatedly, "Da'an came here in the same way at the beginning, saying that there were no doors or windows in there, and I didn't think it was a big deal at first, but after a long time, some students with weak bodies couldn't carry it, and fainted and carried it out. Have."

The speaker had no intention of listening to the listener, Liao Meiying frowned slightly, and a trace of worry flashed in her heart.
