Liao Zhai Great Kind People

Chapter 190 Exam Tips

Before the big exam, candidates from all over the country rushed to the capital one after another, and all kinds of poetry and literary fairs were held more frequently.

One day, Zhang Xiu was writing a storybook in the yard, and was writing Lin Daiyu's fist fight in Guanxi, when suddenly there were footsteps at the door, and when he looked up, Li Ji walked in with a cheerful face, leading a handsome young man.

It was the first time Zhang Xiu saw him leading his friends home, and she was a little surprised: "Why didn't you go to see Ke'er today?"

Li Ji said with a smile: "I met a friend on the way, Brother Tao, this is the teacher who taught me to read, Mr. Zhang."

The young man took a few steps forward, saluted with a smile and said, "Your junior, Tao Sanlang, have met Mr. Zhang!"

When he got closer, Zhang Xiu smelled a faint fragrance from him, and couldn't help asking curiously: "Why do you smell so fragrant, what do you do?"

Tao Sanlang smiled lightly: "The younger generation makes a living selling chrysanthemums."

Zhang Xiu frowned slightly, her complexion became a little complicated.

Tao Sanlang seemed to have been used to Zhang Xiu's reaction for a long time, and he said neither humble nor overbearing: "It seems that the master thinks that chrysanthemums are an elegant thing, and the younger generation sells chrysanthemums as a disgrace to the gentleman. I don't know that self-sufficiency is not greedy, and selling flowers for business is not vulgar. Of course, you can’t use unfair means to seek profit, but you don’t have to pursue poverty either.”

Zhang Xiu frowned even deeper, and said, "I just want to know, is the chrysanthemum you sell a legitimate chrysanthemum?"

Tao Sanlang: "@#￥%￥#@..."

Tao Sanlang sells authentic chrysanthemums. He and his sister Huang Ying are very skilled in planting chrysanthemums. The variety of chrysanthemums they grow is dazzling.

Taking advantage of the big exam approaching, the two siblings came to the capital to grow chrysanthemums and sell them to arty scholars, earning a lot of money.

Li Ji passed by their flower shop and was attracted by the bright chrysanthemums, so he stopped for a while.

Tao Sanlang stepped forward to chat and learned that he was going to find his beloved girl, and enthusiastically recommended him to bring a few bouquets of flowers to Hu Ke'er.When the two came and went, they became acquainted.

Li Ji told Zhang Xiu how the two knew each other in a few words, and humbly asked Zhang Xiu: "Teacher, what kind of flowers do you think Miss Ke'er would like?"

Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "Why don't you give her two buckets of popcorn?"

Li Ji: "..."

Seeing Li Ji's messy appearance, Zhang Xiu slightly rolled her eyes.

Hu Keer is a little fox, how could he like flowers, it would be better to give her two buckets of popcorn...

Abandoning the two who continued to discuss, Zhang Xiu came to a teahouse with the written words.

When the young storyteller got the storybook, he was moved to tears, knelt down towards the west, and shouted sadly: "50 years...Grandpa, the storybook you chased after has finally been updated again! "

The storyteller was overwhelmed with excitement, while Zhang Xiu took the money and went to the tavern next door.

Asking the waiter to warm up a bowl of rice wine and put out a plate of fennel beans, Zhang Xiu looked at the other people in the tavern.

Jigong is not in the store, so he can't eat his dog meat...

Standing next to the next table was a middle-aged man, tall and burly, with bulging muscles and bones, hesitating at the table seat, his face was gloomy and sad.

This is cash-strapped, no money to eat?
Zhang Xiu asked him curiously: "Do you want to eat something?"

The man looked at Zhang Xiu, with a gleam in his eyes: "Think!"

Zhang Xiu smiled slightly: "I just want to eat something too, come and sit at my table, let's eat together."

man:"……"

My hungry ears have heard it wrong?
Are you sure you mean Cengfan, not eating together?
After waiting suspiciously for a while, he saw Zhang Xiu whispering a few words to a bearded man who was rushing for an exam, and he got a feast of eight dishes, one soup, and a bucket of rice, and the man believed Zhang Xiu. If so, he lowered his head and started to eat in a muffled voice.

In the blink of an eye, eight dishes and a bucket of rice were eaten up. The man let out a long and comfortable breath, and then looked at Zhang Xiu: "What did you tell that scholar just now? Why did he give you a meal? leave happily?"

Zhang Xiu smiled and said, "Actually, it's nothing, I just told him a little trick about the exam."

The man asked curiously, "What technique?"

Zhang Xiudao: "I told him that during the exam, you have to write your name on the test paper."

man:"……"

I don't read much, so don't lie to me, this sentence is worth a meal. Those who come to take the imperial examination this time are all idiots!

What he didn't know was that the examiner who came to catch the exam just now, named Yan Chixia, had taken the exam for three consecutive years, but failed in theory.

Zhang Xiu was entrusted by Yan Feng to investigate, and finally found out that the reason was that Yan Chixia didn't write her name on the test paper every time she took a test strategy...

Seeing his dull look, Zhang Xiu asked, "Are you full?"

The man came back to his senses, thanked him and said, "I haven't eaten so full for three years."

Zhang Xiu said curiously: "With your body, you can see that you are an expert in robbing houses, murdering and setting fires, why are you so poor and poor?"

The man's cheeks twitched slightly, and he replied, "I can't tell you about this."

Zhang Xiu asked again: "Then where is your hometown?"

The man said: "I don't have a house on the ground, and I don't have a boat on the water. I live in the countryside in the morning and sleep in the city at night."

The corners of Zhang Xiu's eyes twitched twice, and he said, "You just don't have a home, you look bluffing, so go to my student's house and be a nursing home for now."

The man shook his head and refused: "No, if you are in great trouble in the future, I will never stand by and forget the kindness of this meal."

This person swears by it because he really has the confidence.

He was originally Lei Cao in the sky, but because he missed the rain, he was punished to the world for three years.Now that the three-year period has come, he will soon return to the Heavenly Court and become an immortal again.

Before leaving, he received a meal from a mortal, wouldn't it be easy to repay him?
Just about to stand up and say goodbye, suddenly, a somewhat familiar woman appeared at the door.

Lei Cao only felt a trance in front of his eyes, as if he saw the Seventh Princess of Heaven.

At this time, the woman had already walked up to his benefactor, and said with a smile, "Sir, is this your friend?"

Zhang Xiu nodded and introduced enthusiastically: "This hero is my new friend. Although I just met him, I already regard him as my brother, my dear relative and friend!"

"My brother is a righteous man. My brother said that even if he faces Yang Jian and Nezha in the future, he will never stand idly by!"

"By the way, brother, I was just talking and didn't ask you what your name is?"

Lei Cao: "@#￥%￥#@..."

Does the name matter now?
　Thank you for your concern, Bai Cai got a common cold, and he is almost better today~
