I want to be a good minister

Chapter 160

Cen Xi continued to look for differences, intending to tell the girl in front of him that this was not their real mother, and Cen Qing seemed to understand what Cen Xi meant, and turned his gaze back quietly, looking at her to Cen Xi.

"Brother, don't we want her?" Cen Qing said suddenly, interrupting Cen Xi's words.

Cen Xi was silent, she couldn't say this, but what was the matter, not only didn't solve the trouble, but also added trouble to herself.

"Brother, I can take care of her. I can take care of you in the village. We can also find a small house instead of a hotel. We only need steamed buns every day. I can watch her and prevent her from wandering around. She doesn't wander around, she's like a mother—"

Cen Xi blocked his throat, opened his mouth, but nodded in a strange way, and the next moment he realized what a stupid thing he did just now, Cen Qing happily picked up the cake on the table and handed it to the woman on the bed. .

The woman was taken aback for a moment, but her eyes were fixed on the cake in Cen Qing's hand. Finally, she couldn't resist the hunger in her stomach, so she took it vigilantly, and swallowed it in three mouthfuls. After eating one, Cen Qing took it again. One, the woman ate three in a row before stopping.

Cen Xi sighed, now it's a hot potato, you can't throw it away if you touch it.

Obviously, the plan did not change quickly, and now there is no progress in one thing, but this inn is unstoppable.

Before it was dark, Cen Xi went out again. This time, Cen Xi didn't dare to go far. He only took out three or five rabbits at a few nearby hotels and inns, and sold the rabbits in the package. More than ten of them got 15 taels of silver.

Back at the inn, Cen Xi thought, now that she is dragging her family together, this hotel can no longer afford to live in, and it is far away from Sitian College, it takes two hours to go back and forth, she has to find a place closer to Sitian College Cen Xi had already thought of this when he first went to Sitian Academy, but at the foot of the mountain, there were only ordinary farmhouses, and Cen Xi wanted to try his luck first.

Early the next morning, Cen Xi settled the rent, left Lin Town with his silly mother and younger sister, hired a bullock cart, and went to the foot of the mountain. After wandering around for a long time, he finally found a dilapidated two thatched hut.

The walls are made of adobe, and the thatched roof is thicker. Compared with the thatched huts in the mountains, it is more sheltered from the wind and rain. The house has nothing but a broken wooden bed, but it is cheap. The village is seeing Cen Xi again. Take out the admission post of Sitian College, how can I tell the old from the new? I am even more amazed that Cen Xi has both good conduct and good conduct. For a big yard, Cen Xi only needs seven taels of silver.

Lizheng set up the documents, and Cen Xi settled down in this thatched hut, which is at the foot of the mountain, and it can be regarded as the nearest house to Sitian College, saving half of Cen Xi's time.

Cen Xi drove an ox cart, and went to town again, bought tables and stools, straw mats, bedding, pots and pans, rice noodles, grain and oil, and packed an ox cart, big and small, all of which were urgent necessities for life. goods, rushed back to the foot of the mountain.

After a busy day, at this time when the sun was setting, Cen Xi thoroughly cleaned the inside and outside of the house three times, and moved out all the useless utensils. After this move, only one bed was left in the house. Yes, the mud on the ground is bumpy, but after sweeping it, it looks a little more tidy.

It was said to be a bed, but it was just a wooden plank on top of a few stools, and it was uneven. Cen Xi put a layer of mattresses and straw mats, so it was neat.

In the remaining kitchen, there used to be an earthen stove in the house. Cen Xi cleaned up the dust and put the newly bought iron pot on it, and it... worked.In response to rice, flour, grain and oil, Cen Xi found a broken earthen vat with only the bottom left. With great difficulty, Cen Xi moved the bottom of the vat in, put it in the kitchen, and moved a wooden table on the ox cart. After entering, several benches and small water tanks were placed in the kitchen.

There is a creek at the foot of the mountain behind the house. It is not difficult to fetch water, and the water is clearer than Cen Xi imagined. Cen Xi carried two buckets of water and filled up the tank. For rice, boil a pot of water first, then wash the pot thoroughly, and then cook the porridge.

Cen Xi looked at the "Mother" who was sitting on the bed, still silent and smirking, he could only sigh silently, and read a few words silently, she must do more good deeds in order to bear good fruits.

Lied "mother" out of the house, only the porridge for dinner, but Cen Qing and silly mother were very satisfied, looking at the sticky and translucent porridge, Cen Qing looked happy, and drank two bowls in a row. The silly lady just let go of her stomach and ate. After eating three bowls in a row, the half pot of porridge was almost empty. Perhaps living in an era when food and clothing had been solved, Cen Xi couldn't imagine the happiness that a bowl of porridge could satisfy, but Seeing the satisfied expressions of the two, Cen Xi seemed to be infected, and his body and mind became lighter.

The next morning, Cen Xi got up early.Yesterday, he bought an ox cart and already used up all the money on Cen Xi, so there are still many things to do today.

Cen Xi took Ah Qing, and Ah Qing led Silly Niang, and headed towards the mountain. After half an hour's journey, before the sun rose, Cen Xi had already arrived at Sitian College.

The gate of Sitian Academy is carved out of a whole block of white marble, but it looks like this...

In Cen Xi's impression, most of the former residences of the ancients that the tour guide took them to visit when traveling, most of them had such buildings - plaques.

The gate plaque is four meters high, and the four characters written to Sitian Academy belong to the same genre as the font on the post.

"Young master, I already told you yesterday that this is a post two years ago, and it doesn't work now—" The two people were still sitting at the place where they signed up yesterday, and what Cen Xi still took out was the yellowed one. post.

"The establishment of Sitian Academy is to spread what we have learned. Students used to come here only to study, but to gain true knowledge. Since the students can't solve the problem, the students don't make things difficult for you. I just ask you to send a letter to the academy. First." As Cen Xi said, he neatly took out a letter from his sleeve and placed it in front of the student.

After finishing speaking, Cen Xi left, and the students behind him snorted displeasedly, is it possible to enter Sitian Academy just by saying it?As he spoke, he threw the letter casually into a bunch of miscellaneous papers and ignored it.

The freshmen who signed up for Sitian College yesterday had officially entered the school. When Cen Xi left, he heard the sound of a bell coming from the mountain.

The morning bell—is to urge the students to get up. Sitian College has an extremely regular schedule. At three quarters in the morning, classes begin, and at three quarters in the evening, they go to bed.

"Brother—" Cen Xi had just walked out of the gate, and ordered Cen Qing, who was waiting outside the courtyard gate, to come up to him immediately, while the silly lady followed Cen Qing without giving way.

"Brother, shall we go catch rabbits now?" Cen Qing blinked, and the silly girl just followed Cen Qing, not saying much.

"Yeah—" Cen Xi nodded and patted the little girl's head, not affected by the previous incident at all.

To enter the academy, Ah Qing also needs to settle down. Now that she is penniless, she can only catch rabbits again. Firstly, she can be upgraded, and secondly, she can earn silver taels.

A few figures slipped out from a corner of the courtyard wall of Sitian Academy at this moment. Outside Sitian Academy is a dense forest. From time to time, Wen Sheng and his entourage came out of the courtyard wall, or went to the mountain forest to have a tooth sacrifice, or Go to Lin Town to be chic, or come in small groups, laughing and playing.

But these people were not, they looked serious, and what they were walking was not the proper way to enter and exit Sitian Academy.

"Master, the number of people in Heliande has been reduced a lot this way. After two days, the subordinates will personally take people to Weize County." Qiliang County goes north through Weize County to become Zeyi County, and what they got According to the news, although the queen disappeared from Qiliang County, she got clues about the queen in Weize County.
