Chapter 988 Imperial Examination Evil Granny (11)

Zhang Luoyi only persisted in doing embroidery work for three days and then she couldn't continue. Of course, she said that her fingers were pricked too many times by needles, and she had to heal the injury first.

Wu Shichu was well aware of her excuse, but she didn't have any objections, after all, she was definitely not the one who was anxious when there was no money to spend.

The time for the scholar's exam was coming soon. Wu Shichu asked Mrs. Song to pack some dry food and hand it over to Han Ji. He had to go to the county to prepare for the exam two days in advance, so he could only eat dry food on the way to save money.

"Sister-in-law, you must pay attention to safety, and be careful not to get separated when you set off with your classmates..." Zhang Luoyi reluctantly told Han Ji, "Why don't I give you some more money? You can't save too much."

This time, Han Ji's travel expenses and registration fee for the examination of talents were all paid by Zhang Luoyi. Don't use her dowry again, this kind of thing happens twice, since she took a dozen taels of silver to buy a servant girl, and then took a few dozen taels out to Han Jicao's talent test, Zhang Luoyi persuaded herself faster this time.

Although Han Ji didn't want to use his wife's dowry very much, he didn't even have the travel expenses to go out without him, so he had no choice but to accept his wife's kindness.

"No need, the money is enough for me, don't worry too much, I won't wrong myself when I go out, you have to take good care of mother at home." Han Ji reluctantly bid farewell to Zhang Luoyi.

When sending Han Ji to the bullock cart in the village, Zhang Luoyi's eyes were red and she was very reluctant to give up. Wu Shichu patted Han Ji on the shoulder very normally and said, "Just do your best, mother and you The lady is waiting for your good news at home."

"Mother, I will not let you down." Han Ji said with great enthusiasm for the future.

The bullock cart took Han Ji away quickly, and the people in the village said to Wu Shichu, "How sure is Han Ji in the exam this time?"

"Sixty to seventy percent." Wu Shichu replied, "The father and son of his academy said that if there are no accidents, there is a great possibility that he will pass the exam this time."

"Hey, then let's wait to drink the wedding wine of Mr. Xiucai!" The villagers said with admiration, and they would not intentionally speak ill of others at such a time to make others feel bad.

"I accept your words! If Han Jizhen passes the examination of scholar, he will definitely have a banquet!" Wu Shichu said without hesitation.

Everyone talked and laughed and walked to their respective homes. When they reached a relatively remote place, they suddenly saw a tall man outside a thatched house that was about to collapse. .

"Who is that person? How did you pull weeds in front of that dilapidated house?" An old woman with gray hair and blind eyes tried to open her eyes and asked.

"I don't know him. I don't think I've seen him before. Is he from our village?" said another villager in his 30s.

"Hey, why do I think it looks familiar?!" A 60-year-old man patted his head, frowned and tried to recall, after a while, he shouted excitedly, "Isn't this Is it the son of Gao’s family before? The Gao Orion who fled to our village more than 40 years ago, the dilapidated house is the Gao Orion’s family. ? I thought he died outside..."

"So it's the son of Gao Orion's family? So he's 40 or [-] years old now?"

"Do you want to ask? See what he is doing when he comes back."

"Then ask?"

……

So a group of people really walked towards that person. When the man saw a group of people coming, he nodded to the elders and said, "Hello, uncles and ladies. I am Gao Li. I just returned home from the army. I've cleaned up the house, and I'll invite the elders to drink housewarming wine."

"Are you really Gao Orion's son? Then you went to join the army?" the old man in the lead asked curiously.

Gao Li nodded: "Yes, in the past, we ran around during the war, and there was no stable place to stay. Now that the war is finally over, the emperor kindly allowed us to disarm and return to the fields, so I came back."

"Hey, that's really not easy. Fighting is dangerous, right? Have you ever been injured?" The younger men are more interested in wars. Their village is far away from the border where wars are often fought, and almost no wars will happen here. , so many people are curious.

"Of course I was injured, and even almost died, but Hades refused to accept me and let me come back with my life." Gao Li raised his thick black eyebrows, and said in a relaxed tone.

Wu Shichu looked at the tendons all over his body. This guy is about 1.8 meters five. In this era of 1.6 meters per man, he is truly outstanding. His arms can be as thick as other people's thighs, and his waist is thin, but he can be seen at first glance. Very powerful, his legs are long and straight, and the thin trouser legs can't shade his smooth leg muscles at all.

Such a man should be very heroic on the battlefield, right?Otherwise, there will be no life left to wait until they are disarmed and returned to the fields.

Gao Li suddenly felt a stare that was obviously different from ordinary people and had a strong sense of probing. He suddenly looked at the source of this gaze, but was shocked to find that it was not some country expert with sharp eyes and unpredictable, but A woman in her thirties with a fair complexion and a soft face looked at him with such a gaze.

When Wu Shi saw Gao Li looking at him for the first time, he smiled and nodded at him. After being surprised for a while, Gao Li also nodded, and then continued talking to others.

Zhang Luoyi couldn't help but get close to Wu Shichu at this time, lowered her voice and said: "Mother, this man looks really fierce, he really came back from the army, not a bandit who was a good man?"

Hearing her words at the beginning, Wu Shichu couldn't help but chuckled. Gao Li was indeed quite fierce, with high eyebrows and deep eyes, sharp and dark eyes, a high nose bridge, a well-defined face, and neat lines. There is a scar that can scare a child into tears.

But in fact, if you look closely, he looks quite handsome, with good facial features, and together he has a handsome face. Unfortunately, his dark complexion and scars conceal his handsomeness, leaving only fierceness.

"Don't talk nonsense, look at his body, if he hadn't been a soldier who has been trained for a long time, he wouldn't have such a straight waist." Wu Shichu replied.

"But he's tall and big, so scary." Zhang Luoyi's favorite type is a white-faced scholar like Han Ji, who is gentle and handsome. When he sees a man like Gao Li who is full of wildness and toughness, he naturally feels scary.

But no matter how scary it was, it couldn't scare Wu Shichu. After greeting everyone for a while, Gao Li bid farewell to everyone on the grounds that he still needed to tidy up the house and was very busy.

His return has aroused heated discussions among everyone, and he has been the topic of conversation in the village recently.
