The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 295 Inquiry
"I went to inquire about it, and there is indeed a man named Min Feng, who is one of the three great talents in the south of the Yangtze River! He competed with several talents in poetry yesterday, but he didn't get No.1. Maybe he will go again today. , There are a lot of people who know about this matter, and the younger ones will know when they go and ask!"

Brother Xing didn't dare to look at the figure behind the screen, he just lowered his head and looked at his own toes, waiting breathlessly for the question from the other side.

"What?" Yao Mengxian was very surprised, her voice became sharp for a moment.She clutched the veil in her hand, feeling confused, why is this incident different from the one in her dream?impossible!How do you explain what happened before that?Is it all a coincidence?
Seeing this, Lian Xin and Qing Dai looked at each other.Girls have been doing things that confuse them lately.Who was this Min Feng? They hadn't heard of it before, but the girl did.They get along with the girl day and night, and it is impossible for the girl to get in touch with the outsider.

But the girl not only knew the person's name, but also seemed surprised that the person was not No.1.

Yao Mengxian forced herself to calm down, she thought about it, did she lose to Fu Ming's nephew Fu Yanshan?But doesn't Fu Yanshan live in the capital?How could you go to Qunying Tower?She clearly remembered that this day was in her dream, could it be that she remembered it wrong?

The rules of Qunying Building are known in the whole capital. If you don't get No.1, you don't live in the inn. No wonder Brother Xing said that Min Feng will go to challenge today.

She suddenly remembered that No.1, who is that No.1?Then Yao Mengxian asked eagerly: "Who is that No.1?"

"Back to the girl! It is said that it is a student named Gu Chengyu. The younger one has already inquired about it. He came from Jingyuan Mansion and came to the capital to take part in the provincial examination!" door.

He is not young this year, and my mother can't eat well in the house. Although his sister has become a second-class girl next to the eldest daughter's daughter, but... alas!Do not say worth mentioning!

His mother said, if he got the favor of the third girl, it would be better than being an ordinary servant in the outer courtyard, right?Besides, his sister came back and said that since she fell into the water last time, the girl's mind has cleared up a bit, so it might as well be like what his mother said, and fight with the third girl, anyway, he has no other place to go.

"Then have you found out what his background is?" Yao Mengxian's soft voice interrupted Brother Xing's plan.

"I heard that Gu Chengyu is only 11 years old now, and he was the one who was praised by the Holy One three years ago. I also heard that he is the little Sanyuan of Jingyuan Mansion!"

The shock in Yao Mengxian's heart at this time was really indescribable, she had never heard of Gu Chengyu.

Three years ago, she just stayed in the house embroidering and practicing calligraphy, and she didn't hear anything outside the window.Regarding this matter, it seemed that she only heard her father mention something when she was paying her respects, but she didn't pay attention to it. After all, her daughter's family would never be interested in the affairs of the court.

Why is there no such person in the dream?Nothing happened three years ago.Or was she too dull before, so she didn't pay attention?
Her mind is in a mess now, and she needs to smooth it out.

"Then you go over there more recently, and check on Gu Chengyu and Min Feng. If there is anything special, come back to me!"

Yao Mengxian went back to the inner room and sent Lian Xin and Qing Dai out, she wanted to be alone.

Sitting on the rose chair, Yao Mengxian recalled the plot of the dream.It has been more than a month, and the little things that happened in the mansion are the same as what happened in the dream, but it is different in this matter. Is it a coincidence or a variable?

She had to look again, a little thing was going to happen tomorrow.She looked at the old furnishings in the room, and opened the small drawer under the dressing box, only to see a few scattered pieces of jewelry inside. These jewelry were very old, and there were only a few fashionable ones.

Yao Mengxian doesn't go out on weekdays, and only rarely goes to the incense last time or goes back to her grandfather's house, so she relies on these few pieces of jewelry to support the scene.Open the cabinet next to the clothes, there are not many clothes in it, not to mention old.

She sneered, thanks to the fact that she is still a daughter of the dignified Duke's family, no one will believe her life in this life.I'm afraid that it is rumored in the outside world that she is a sick child, and she can't even get out of the house.

Since they are unkind, don't blame her for being unrighteous.Tomorrow is a good time, not only to verify whether the dream is true, but also to gain some benefits.

Gu Chengyu took Sun Xian and the others for a stroll around the capital, and they came here, so they can't stay in the room and read a book all the time, right?
"Chengyu! With this energy, it's better to read in the inn!" Ye Zhiqiu is not a person who likes to go out. If nothing happens, he can stay in the house for a month.

Gu Chengyu thinks this is an ancient otaku!

"Look at how weak your body is. We have to stay in the Gongyuan for nine days and six nights in the rural examination. If you don't come out to exercise your body and bones, can you bear it? How can you do it if you don't have a good physique? The seniors who took the exam, those who were in poor health, weren't they all lifted out?"

Gu Chengyu looked at Ye Zhiqiu's body and was a little worried. Ye Zhiqiu's body hadn't recovered yet, and he seemed to be a little paler today. Could it be that he was not acclimatized?This is impossible!If the body is not well maintained, how can I go to participate in the autumn?
"How can I be so weak? I just need to rest for a few more days. Isn't it because of the boat ride?" Ye Zhiqiu thought of the boat ride before, and he vomited faintly. Fortunately, Gu Chengyu brought the pills with him, otherwise he would be sick at this moment. I'm afraid I have to stay in the hospital.

"I don't think you have a good appetite right now, so go see the doctor!" Gu Chengyu took a closer look at Ye Zhiqiu's face, only to find that his complexion was sallow, his eye sockets were sunken, and he looked listless.

"Yeah! Junior Brother Ye, let's take a look with you! Your complexion doesn't look good, so you should take a look to rest assured. When you go out, you must be careful with your body. Besides, the exam is about to take place, so take care of your body as soon as possible." Alright, so as not to affect your performance!"

When Gu Chengyu and the others returned to the inn, it was getting late, and Ye Zhiqiu came back with a few packs of medicine, as Gu Chengyu said, he was not acclimatized.

"My lord! We turned a few streets today, and went to the tooth shop. We saw four shops. They were all good, but they were all a bit more expensive!" Ming Mo felt that it was a money grab when he thought of the prices offered by the masters. Woolen cloth!That money is enough to buy two houses in Fucheng.

"Oh? Let's hear it!" Of course Gu Chengyu knows that these shops are not cheap, but in the past three years, he has earned a lot of money, and it is still possible to buy two shops.

"There is a shop located in the southwest. It has two storeys. The asking price is 800 taels. There are two other stores. The one is in the west and has two storeys. It's just that this one is smaller and only has a small yard. The previous one was much smaller, and the price was 200 taels!"

After listening to it, Gu Chengyu thought it was normal. The price was naturally different in different locations.The one in the southwest is not good for him at first sight, and that one faces the southern district, and his restaurant is positioned as a high-end restaurant, so he won't consider this one.

"There is another one on North Street. The location is not bad. There is a large courtyard on the upper and lower floors. There are several rooms in the backyard, piled up with sundries, and it is more than enough to accommodate a few people, but the price is also expensive. It is said that it costs two. 800 taels!"

Gu Chengyu is very excited about the last one. North Street is positioned as a high-end crowd, but there are many shops in the capital. He plans to choose carefully, and there is no need to be in a hurry.
