Chapter 49 Guess
"Let Xiaochong go to study? That's good," when the aunt came over with sugar water, she heard her old man happily say: "Let's go to the private school in Xiaoshitou. Mr. Jiang, we are still children in the same year. , he has gained fame as a scholar in the past two years, and he is also very patient, so it is most suitable for enlightening children."

"In addition, this bunch of repairs is not expensive, just one penny a month. Book paper and so on will be charged separately, but you can buy Xiaochong's together with Xiaoshi in the future. It looks like a lot, but actually it's just too crowded." enough."

Hearing my auntie coughing again and again, don't buy it with my own small stones at the beginning, but in the end I need my old man to pay for everything.

Their family asks for money everywhere, how can they have spare money to support their siblings.

But An Xu didn't want to take advantage of the uncle's family, and he just listened to what the uncle said.

The next morning, An Xu didn't leave the stall. He cut the cooked Dongpo pork into small pieces and put them layer by layer in a well-brushed black pottery jar. He also bundled celery and other gifts, Then he took his younger brother out the door.

With my uncle taking me with me, the apprenticeship went smoothly.

After leaving An Chong behind, An Xu and his uncle drove the ox cart back to Linhe Village.

During the slack period, the county did not issue any corvee, and there were quite a few people in the village, some standing and chatting, and some carrying tools to the mountains to chop firewood.

Uncle An's ox cart walked across the bridge, and another cart came across, which was Uncle Fang's carriage.

An Xu was curious, "Did Fang Bo not leave the car today?"

Out of the car?

This is quite appropriate, Uncle An said with a smile: "Zheng Huai went to the next door Yanxia Village to hire a car today. You see, the car is full of betrothal gifts. In fact, when you get married, the first thing you need is to get married. It depends on how the boy behaves, and the girl in Yanxia Village will be blessed in the future."

As he spoke, he glanced at his niece next to him.

As an uncle, it's hard for him to say some in-depth words, so he can only point her a little bit, don't pin all your hopes on Zong Che.

That kid has a different appearance, if he doesn't do anything in the future, he won't do anything. If he does anything, he's either a traitor or a slippery official.It's like a dream that my niece wants to marry him and live a good life.

An Xu understood the admonition in the uncle's language, smiled and said nothing.

"Are you going to apply for an appointment now?" Uncle An drove the car to the side of the road, got out of the way, and greeted the people in the carriage with a smile.

Zheng Huai was driving the car, and his parents, grandma, and two aunts were sitting in the car. Everyone laughed and replied to Uncle An's words.

An Xu could see that the uncle's prestige in the village was not low.Thinking about it, the uncle is a boy after all, he may be nothing outside, but he should be a rare cultural person in the village.

Zheng Huai looked over, and An Xu smiled at him, but the other party turned his head away without expression.

Seeing this scene, Grandma Zheng sat forward, trying to block An Da Ni's gaze, and rolled her eyes indiscriminately in front of her uncle.

After walking out of the village, he told his grandson again and again that he was going to get married soon, so he should ignore An Da Ni from now on.

"Yes, Da Huai, An Da Ni's looks are not as good as Jin Yu who is about to enter the door."

Zheng Huai's two aunts also talked with each other.

Here, An Xu walked over and left the Zheng family behind. It's not yet noon, let's go to the mountain and pick some yellow fruits to make canned food.

What are you going to do tomorrow to sell?

Let's see if I can find some edible wild vegetables, and steamed stuffed buns with mushrooms and vegetables are also fine. Anyway, I bought another bag when I bought meat at Xuejiaji yesterday.

When he went out again, An Xu was alone, but Zong Che was with her when he went out in the morning, and he was going to the county school to find his husband.

During this period of time at home, Zong Che wrote a few articles and wanted to show them to my husband.

An Xu asked him to go out later, because she didn't have to go to the county seat, and she didn't use Fang Bo's carriage, she always pushed the carriage out before dawn.

Zong Che said that it was easier to take advantage of the car on the official road outside Xuejiaji, so he left home with her in the light of stars.

As for An Chong who has already entered school, An Xu left him a few steamed buns stuffed with mushrooms and vegetables for breakfast before going out.

There is no meat in the stuffing of the buns. The wild mushrooms picked by An Xu have a strong aroma and a firm texture. With the addition of seasonings, they have a meaty taste.Very fresh and tender, I don't like meat buns and the taste is bad.

When we arrived at the official road outside Xuejiaji, it was just dawn, and it seemed that there were not many cars on the road, but it didn't take long for horses and donkeys to pass by.

An Xu parked the car, opened the lid of the pot, and the white, tender and chubby buns were exposed in the air with steaming heat.

"Take two buns," an old man driving a donkey cart passed by without hesitation.

An Xu looked up and saw that he was still an acquaintance. The old man who bought the hamburger the morning before yesterday laughed and said, "Are you going to the county?"

The donkey cart was still loaded with firewood, but there was still one seat in the front seat, so An Xu wanted Zong Che to take advantage of the cart.

She is not sure about the other people, but this old man has seen it before, and it seems that he often takes this road to the county seat, and he is probably not a bad person.

Old man Wu took out the money and said, "Yes, send firewood. Miss, you haven't encountered any trouble with this business, have you?"

The girl didn't go out to the stall yesterday, and when he went to the Yingke restaurant to deliver food, he saw them selling steamed buns and vegetables. Although the steamed buns were not as soft as the little girl's, the taste of the sauce was exactly the same.

That's the reason why he came to buy things when he saw this stall today. Don't you feel guilty when you see that there is no such thing as steamed buns?
An Xu didn't understand why he asked this question, but he still replied: "The guests are all so talkative, so there is no trouble."

Old man Wu felt even more guilty, and said, "Two more buns."

Unexpectedly, this girl picked up five buns at once, wrapped them in leaves and handed them over, saying: "You take it and eat, my younger brother is going to the county school, I don't know if you can make it along the way?"

"It can be smooth, it can be smooth."

So the old man Wu, who wanted to buy more buns, insisted that he didn't spend a penny. He felt even more embarrassed to take other people's buns for nothing, and he was more careful with his younger brother. Because the young man didn't like to talk, he didn't dare to say anything along the way. He said that after entering the county seat, he kept sending people to the county school.

At the gate of the county school, Zong Che got out of the car with a cane and said "thank you".

The old man Wu immediately smiled and nodded in reply, his eyes lingered on the open gate of the county school for a while, and then he left with envy.

Zong Che is just a boy now, and he hasn't entered school yet, so it is said that he cannot enter the county school. However, his performance in the first two exams was among the best in Jipu County, and the gentlemen in the county school are willing to give some advice.

Anyone who was in the top ten in the government examination can come to the county school for advice at any time.

When Zong Che came over, the gatekeeper here still knew him, and greeted him with a smile: "Boy Zong, it's a coincidence that you came here, the county magistrate Lu is coming to inspect today."

Zong Che nodded with a smile, and when he turned around, the smile disappeared.

The arrival of County Magistrate Lu may not be a good thing for him
