Chapter 116
It was almost the end of July, and the two cousins ​​of the uncle's family returned to Taohua Village from Chongyue Academy in the county. Xie Wuyu met him once when he went to the old house to deliver cherries.

Xie Changheng's condition was not very good, the already thin man looked even thinner, his cheeks were sunken.Xie Wuyu felt strange, and asked Xie Changzhi suspiciously.

Xie Changzhi said with a bitter face: "Qiu Wei will be here soon, brother is feeling tense."

Xie Wuyu was stunned for a moment before he realized that the exam was about to take place?She remembered that this eldest cousin was already a scholar, and if he passed the exam now, he should be a Juren.

Xie Wuyu thought about it, and felt that it would be more appropriate to say something auspicious: "Big cousin must be fine, don't worry."

Xie Changzhi was amused: "How do you know it will work?"

Xie Wuyu said: "Brother looks like someone who can go to high school, so he must be fine."

Xie Changzhi was surprised: "Can you see this too? Where did you see it? Help me see it too?"

"You also want to take the exam?" Xie Wuyu didn't quite understand the exam system in this era, after all, time and space were a little different, and she hadn't seen this dynasty in history books.

Xie Changzhi had a bitter face, squatted on the ground and rubbed his head sighing: "Yes, I also want to take the exam. To be honest, I don't really like reading, but there is no way, my parents worked so hard to earn money for me and my elder brother. Reading, if I don’t want to do it, I have to force myself to do it.”

Xie Wuyu patted him on the shoulder sympathetically: "Okay, since it's a foregone conclusion, then you have no other choice but to take the exam."

Of course Xie Changzhi also knew this truth, he just complained, he didn't dare to tell his family members, for fear of seeing their disappointed eyes.

Xie Wuyu saw that he was really distressed, and he didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only wash the cherries in the basket and put them in front of him: "Eat some cherries, some delicious food can also increase the motivation to study right."

Xie Changzhi grabbed a handful of cherries resentfully, stuffed a handful into his mouth angrily, then stopped suddenly, stared at the cherries in his hand and shouted in disbelief: "This is also grown by your family?"

Xie Wuyu nodded inexplicably: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Xie Changzhi ate a few mouthfuls before slowing down, clutching the cherries so happy that he was about to shed tears: "I found out now, are you a little food god descending to earth?"

Xie Wuyu raised his eyebrows: "How do you say that?"

Xie Changzhi said: "Since the separation, your family has always produced a lot of delicious food, strawberries, grapes, plums, apricots, peaches, and now there is an extra cherry. It's almost August and your family still has such delicious food. cherries, not to mention those delicious jams."

It was rare for Xie Wuyu to be amused: "You are not serious about what you said, which God of Cookery fights with Guozi every day."

Xie Changzhi scratched his head: "That's right. Anyway, your family has a lot of delicious food."

Xie Wuyu nodded seriously: "Yes, in the future, if the second cousin wants to eat something, you can come to my house and have a look, maybe there is something you like."

Xie Changzhi suddenly remembered Li Shi's skill in cooking, and his saliva suddenly became flooded, and he nodded hastily.

"What are you talking about, so happy?"

Suddenly a pleasant voice came from behind, and the two turned their heads, only to see Xie Changheng standing by the window looking at them with a smile on his face.

Xie Changzhi stood up abruptly, and asked stammeringly, "Brother, have you finished reading the book? Do you want to rest?"

He could still hold the cherries in his hand, with a guilty conscience of being caught on his face, Xie Wuyu gave him a very strange look, and slowly stood up.

The two of them were just squatting and talking, and they didn't do anything bad. What was this kid doing with such a guilty conscience, it made Xie Wuyu think that he had done something he shouldn't have done.

"Big cousin."

She smiled and greeted politely, and Xie Changheng smiled with the corner of his mouth bent: "Xiao Yu is still there, I have heard your voice a long time ago."

Xie Wuyu smiled: "Well, I talked with my second cousin for a while."

Xie Changheng nodded, his eyes fell on her hand holding the gauze, his eyes paused, his brows frowned slightly: "What's going on?"

Xie Wuyu looked down at his hand, smiled and shook his head: "I accidentally hurt it, it's not a serious wound, it's just that the gauze was wrapped a little too much."

Xie Changheng nodded, still frowning, "Although the weather is much cooler now, we still need to pay more attention. The wound should not always be stuffy, which is not conducive to healing."

Xie Wuyu listened carefully, and then talked to the two cousins ​​for a while before leaving.

When she left, Qian stayed a few words politely. On the surface, she was unmistakably polite. Xie Wuyu looked at her several times in surprise.

You must know that this eldest aunt has always disliked their family, and she has a somewhat impatient temper, but now she talks to her so calmly, Xie Wuyu thought about it, and felt that it might be what the uncle said, She always felt that her eldest uncle was quite dignified, and even her father respected him very much.

This time she was the only one who came to the old house to deliver things. Xie Wuyou was detained to practice calligraphy at home, and Xiao Ye was not allowed to go out by Xie Wuyu on the grounds of taking care of his health.The last time Xiao Ye fell into the water brought her a lot of shock, until now whenever she thinks about it, Xie Wuyu feels flustered for a while.

Only when experiencing this critical moment of life and death can Xie Wuyu really feel that life is really fragile.Involuntarily, she remembered the events of her previous life, she finally chose to detonate the space and die with Cheng Xiaoqing, the last thought before her death was that it was a pity that she did not find out where her benefactor was.

I don't know if the benefactor escaped from the base safely, and I don't know how the benefactor felt when he heard the news of her death.But she was broken to pieces, and the benefactor didn't know that it was her who died, maybe he just thought she was separated and disappeared, which was fine, and it was better than knowing that someone he knew very well had died.

I don't know if my benefactor will... worry about her?

Before the base fell, the benefactor hadn't looked for her for a long time, and she didn't even have time to say a word to him. Thinking about it, I feel a little pity.

When she got near her home, a figure flashed in front of Xie Wuyu's eyes, she recovered her senses and looked at it intently.

Looking at the back, it was a woman, tightly wrapped, wearing old khaki clothes, and her head was wrapped in a piece of cloth.

Xie Wuyu's heart suddenly became vigilant, and he wandered around her house furtively, what did he want to do?
She approached lightly, and as soon as she approached the door of her house, she heard Li Shi's clear and smiling voice: "I'll go out first, Xiao Ye and Wuyou, you two carry the basket."

Xie Wuyou replied sweetly: "Hey."

Xie Wuyu was startled, as soon as he raised his head, the door was opened by Mrs. Li, just in time to meet the sight of the woman hovering in front of the door, Mrs. Li was startled, and took a step back involuntarily, tripping her foot on the threshold On the road, Xie Wuyu's soul was so frightened that he was about to fly away.

"Auntie!"

"Aunt Li!"

Xiao Ye threw away the basket in his hand, and flew over, barely able to support Li Shi who was about to fall.

Xie Wuyu breathed a sigh of relief, and turned his eyes to the person who scared Li Shi, and was stunned at this sight.

Why is Tian Hehua here?
