farmer's husband

Chapter 290
Only then did Chun Zhi turn around and hug him.

"Okay, it's okay, go to sleep!"

"Can't sleep." Chai Dong whispered, and snuggled into her arms just like Boy Li.

"Lie down even if you can't sleep!" Chunzhi said, pushing him onto the bed without any explanation.

Then she blew out the candle and lay down beside him.

Chai Dong quickly leaned over again, wrapped his arms around her waist tightly, leaned his head on her shoulder, and didn't speak for a long time.

This night, Chai Dong opened his eyes until dawn again.Of course, Chun Zhi's mood was not much better. Although she closed her eyes, she did not fall asleep for a long time, and only closed her eyes for a while when the sky was about to dawn.

When it was daylight, the two of them got up.

Both of them are not in good spirits, especially Chai Dong. He drank too much wine and stayed up all night. Now his face is sallow and sallow, and he is a little shaky when he walks.

The Wang family next door didn't come out, but the Dai Ren brothers ran out quickly when they heard the movement. "Uncle, aunt, you woke up so early!"

"Isn't there an exam today? If you don't get up, you will miss the time soon." Chun Zhi said softly.

The Dai Ren brothers were taken aback for a moment, they all looked at Chai Dong who smelled of alcohol.

Chunzhi nodded immediately. "That's right, he's going to take the exam. He's already here, and he's lived in the capital for such a long time, and he's just short of this finishing touch. How can he say he won't do it?"

Chai Dong nodded wearily, but still leaned against her and did not speak.

The two brothers nodded in a daze. "Okay! Then, let's go now?"

"Of course." Chun Zhi nodded.

The things for the exam have already been packed.Chun Zhi picked it up, and went downstairs to have breakfast with Chai Dong, and the couple went to the examination room surrounded by Dai Ren brothers.

From the beginning to the end, Wang did not appear.Chai Dong didn't bother to talk too much.

This time it took another three days of consecutive exams, and it was rare for Chai Dong to enter the exam room on time for each exam, and then hand in the papers when the time came, and there were no twists and turns before or after the exam.But after each exam, he would go back to the inn with Chun Zhi, close the door and lie on the bed without saying a word.Even the people who discussed articles with him before wanted to come over to discuss with him, but he ignored them.

Someone got angry and scolded in a low voice at the door of his room: "Isn't it just that the article is better than mine? Now I just come to inquire about the news, so you are on guard against me. Are you afraid that my ranking will exceed You can't make it? I have to wait and see how many you, Xie Yuan from Sanjiang Province, can get in the exam!"

Chai Dong heard it in the room, and it was as if he hadn't heard it.

Chun Zhi couldn't sit still anymore, she stood up abruptly, walked over to open the door and looked at the other party with a sneer: "Why is my husband not wanting to talk to you just to guard against you? Then he told you so much before the exam, he Why don't you know how to guard against you? Now he is tired and doesn't want to care about others, can't he? If you have the ability, go to the exam and take the exam with your own ability. I'll see how many you can pass in the exam!"

"You!" The student was trembling with anger from her, "Rely on your true ability! Who is afraid that you will fail?"

Then he walked away angrily.

Chun Zhi closed the door again, looked back at Chai Dong who was still sitting there blankly, pursed her lips, and couldn't help but sighed softly.

After the full exam, Chai Dong did the same.Although he didn't clamor for a drink anymore, his whole body was listless and he couldn't cheer up at all.He also ate less food and slept less, and he became skinny in just half a month.

Chun Zhi saw it, she was almost dying of anxiety!
Then, it was time to release the list.

Early this morning, Chun Zhi dragged Chai Dong to the entrance of the examination room and waited.

When Da Hong's list was posted, she hurriedly dragged Chai Dong forward.After finally getting to the front of the crowd, she looked at the first list—nothing; then looked at the second list—still nothing; finally, she shifted her attention to the third list, but still did not find Chai Dong’s name!

Her heart sank hard.

He hurriedly turned his head to look at Chai Dong.Seeing Chai Dong lift his lips: "You read that right, I didn't pass the exam, and I didn't even enter the third list."

"Oh." Chun Zhi nodded, and she pulled him out of the crowd and went back.

As soon as they went out, Brother Dai Ren came up to meet them.Both were very excited: "How is it? Did you win? How many places?"

"No." Chunzhi shook his head.

"Ah? How is it possible!" Both brothers were shocked, their eyes full of disbelief.

As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of laughter from the crowd over there.

"Hahaha, I hit it! I hit it!"

There was a commotion in the crowd, and then two strong men got off the carriage next to them.They walked into the crowd, lifted the man and threw him into the carriage.Immediately afterwards, the carriage fled and ran forward!
The Dairen brothers were startled when they saw this.Dai Yi rolled up his sleeves and was about to catch up, but Dai Ren quickly stopped him.

"Brother, what are you pulling me for?" Dai Yi was in a hurry.

"Don't you find it strange that they do this kind of thing in broad daylight?" Dai Ren asked him quietly, "And you also saw the carriage just now, such a gorgeous carriage with the family emblem on it, who Are you stupid enough to use your own carriage to do bad things at this time?"

"Ah, isn't this robbing people? What are you doing?" Dai Yi asked stupidly.

"I don't know about that, we have to ask uncle."

As Dai Ren said, the two quickly looked at Chai Dong in unison.

Chai Dong pursed his lips and said nothing.Chunzhi thought for a while, and she immediately thought of it: "This should be what they said about catching a son-in-law!"

"What is it to catch a son-in-law?" This is the first time the two brothers have heard of it.

Chun Zhi looked at Chai Dong, and saw that he still had no intention of speaking, so she explained to them: "It's those big families who specially wait here when the results are announced. Once you see some students who have passed, come over immediately People are caught and taken back to be recruited as son-in-law. This is called arresting a son-in-law under the list."

"Wow!"

The two brothers were stunned.

"So there is such a thing? This is the first time I've heard of it!" Dai Yi's eyes were wide open, "However, aren't they afraid that the people they catch will be old and ugly? The ladies of these rich families They should all look pretty good, right? And, what if the person they catch is already married?"

As he said that, he thought of Chai Dong again, he was very good-looking and talented.If he passed the exam this time, I'm afraid many people will scramble to snatch him, right?Unfortunately……

While they were talking, several candidates who had passed the exam were taken away by several carriages after a few cheers.

Seeing this, Chai Dong grabbed Chun Zhi's wrist suddenly. "Let's go!"

Chun Zhi nodded, and they went back silently.

Back at the inn, the waiter at the inn also greeted him with joy on his face.However, as soon as he saw the lonely faces of all of them, he swallowed all the words that came to his lips, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chai is back? Are you tired, go back to your room Rest, I will bring you a pot of hot water to wash your face in a short while!"

Chai Dong hummed in a low voice, and continued to go upstairs with a calm face.

However, as soon as they got to the room and opened the door, they heard a series of hurried footsteps.

"Brother Chai, brother Chai!"

A high-pitched call sounded from behind.A few people turned their heads to look, and saw that Juzi who had been scolded by Chun Zhi before came happily.

"Brother Chai, I've won! Although it's the same Jinshi in the third list, it's still on the list, isn't it? This can be regarded as the top [-] among thousands of candidates from all over the country!" He looked at Chai Dong happily , There is no show off in the eyes.

Chai Dong looked at him silently.

This person is even worse.He pretended to sigh again: "Hey, but my ability is still not as good as you, Brother Chai! When answering the question this time, I quoted what you said before, Brother Chai. Usually, I don't think so. It wasn’t until the exam that I realized that what you said really worked. It’s all thanks to you that I was able to be on the list this time! So now, I’m here to express my gratitude to you!”

He bowed to Chai Dong respectfully.

Chunzhi was so angry that he wanted to go up and scold him again.

But Chai Dong pulled her back. "You're welcome." He said coldly.

"But it's true, Brother Chai, you are such a talented person, what you said in front of others must be just the tip of the iceberg you know. Then when you answer the questions, you must be more comfortable? Anyway, you are this class. Where is Xie Yuan from Liangjiang Province!" The other party was still smiling.

He deliberately flattered him, and then he asked with concern: "By the way, I was too excited just now, and I forgot to ask——Brother Chai, how many exams did you pass? , even if you can't enter the first list, how can you be in the forefront of the second list?"

Chunzhi was so angry that his teeth itched.

Since this person has seen the list, how could he not know Chai Dong's ranking?

As a result, now he is pretending to be compliments and congratulations, and now he is directly pushing his nose on the face!She really hated why she didn't beat him up last time!
Now, she started to think about calling the third son over to scratch his face.

But Chai Dong immediately held her hand tightly again.

"I missed it." He said in a deep voice.
