Wearing the cannon fodder little koi in the imperial examination essay

Chapter 15 The most torment is waiting
What flowers and plants, pictures?
Could it be that the second brother once mentioned that there are paintings of flowers, birds, insects, fish, mountains, rivers and lakes, biographies and stories of various characters, similar to the comic books I have read in my previous life, and there are villain picture books that are similar in purpose?
Seeing the old lady's behavior, Yu Su didn't let herself out of the house. Yu Su, who has been a teenager in two lifetimes, understood the other party's deep meaning almost immediately.

She also knew that she couldn't make trouble for the other party, so she nodded and obediently accepted the so-called cursive script.

In the end... When the other party handed her two books with blue covers, and Yu Su took them over and opened them, she was dumbfounded.

Where is this comic book like I imagined?

Well, they are indeed flowers and plants worthy of the name, but their real name is Daquan of Herbs!

"Why, Bao doesn't like it?" Old Qi asked anxiously seeing Yu Su holding the book and not speaking for a long time.

Yu Su held the two herbal encyclopedias and hurriedly shook his head, "No, Grandma Qi, I like it, thank you Grandma Qi."

Old Qi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, "Okay, as long as our treasure likes it, as long as we like it! Then treasure, you can read a book in the room, if grandma doesn't come to call you, please don't go out, okay?" it is good?"

Yu Su looked at the cautiousness in each other's eyes, and nodded obediently, "Okay."

Old Qi's face brightened, he stroked Yu Su's hair and murmured, "Our treasure is so good, grandma is going to cook dinner now, Bao looks good."

Yu Su still nodded obediently, "Okay."

Old Qi was very satisfied with such an obedient child. Looking at Yu Su who was already sitting cross-legged on the bed and reading carefully, before leaving the room, Old Qi didn't forget to prop up the window so that the outside After confirming that the bright light in the room would not hurt the child's eyes, Lao Qi stepped out of the room.

But at the moment when she turned around and gently closed the door, seeing the cute figure on the bed, she couldn't help shaking her head and sighing.

"Oh, what a crime!"

If the old man hadn't told the family to keep everything as usual, it must not be suspicious;
If it weren't for the rule that once the door of the main room and the courtyard are opened in the morning, it is not allowed to be closed again at night or when there is no one at home;
It is also good to let the children play and run in the yard!

The matter of the Yu family is still uncertain. If such a good boy has been locked up and not given away, after a long time, I am afraid he will be fooled by being locked up. God is sorry...

No, let the old man go to the city to find out tomorrow.

In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Lao Qi sent her old man out to the county town to inquire about news, while she led Yu Su to wait at home.

Seeing that the old man was nowhere to be seen, the old man who was sitting at the door of the main room sorting and grinding herbs was anxious, and glanced at Yu Su who was sitting in front of the window reading a book from the open door from time to time. Old Qi was distracted.

Well, I don't know what's going on in the city?How is Old Yu's brother's family?Did the old man find out?
Old Qi was so engrossed in his thoughts that he couldn't help but stop the grinding movements in his hands. Yu Su in the house was also absent-minded. She had been reading the page of the book in front of her all morning and hadn't turned the page. Look at it seriously, but in fact, her mind has already flown away. Like Old Qi, she is anxiously waiting.

It was Yu Su's stomach growling that brought back the spirits of the two of them, and Lao Qi suddenly realized, and slapped his thigh, "Baby, are you hungry, grandma, can I get you a tung leaf cake?"

In order to save food, the people in the country only eat two meals a day. Although the old man of the family relies on Dr. Ling's ability to make a little money for the family, but they are old after all, and there is no one behind them. The old couple can't save two more money Son, make plans for the future. After all, the family has no labor to cultivate, and the fields in their hands are rented out to the same clan. They get some chewing every year, and live frugally. On weekdays, they are the same as the villagers and dare not eat too much. Toss fee.

It's getting late now, the child can't compare to me, but I'm not hungry, didn't I see my belly bulging?

Old Qi hurriedly stopped what he was doing, got up and went to the kitchen to get the Tongye Baba that he made in the morning for Yu Su to eat.

Where can Yu Su eat?

Shaking her head again and again, she refused, "Auntie Qi, I'm not hungry, I don't eat papa, if you are hungry, eat it yourself."

"Grandma isn't hungry either, treasure..."

Just as he was talking, a shout came from outside the door, interrupting what Lao Qi was saying.

"Old lady, I'm back!"

The eyes of the two people, one old and one young, looked at the same person, and seeing the person coming was not just what they were thinking about, who else could be the person they most urgently want to see right now?

"Grandpa Qi!" Yu Su shouted with joy, and subconsciously wanted to run over to meet the inquiry, but when she ran to the door, she stopped abruptly, and then remembered the restriction that she could not leave the house. Shengsheng stopped at the door of the room to look around, and saw Grandma Qi stepped forward to greet her and opened her mouth to ask: "Old man, you are back, how are things going? Are brother Yu and sister-in-law okay?"

Old Qi, who was standing on the porch of the hall entrance, faced his old wife's question. He first glanced at Yu Su's room in the hall through the window, and saw Yu Su standing inside the door, looking anxiously through the window. Looking at himself, Old Qi pursed his chapped mouth and shook his head at Old Qi.

Seeing this, Yu Su's heart sank suddenly, and he thought that Grandpa Qi's reaction, could something really happen to Grandpa and the others?
In an instant, Yu Su's mind was in a mess, and her legs were so weak that she could hardly stand still. Just when her heart was about to explode, Grandpa Qi's voice sounded outside.

"No, I didn't make it to the city at all today."

Old Qi wondered: "What's going on? Why can't you enter the city yet?"

"Alas! The three city gates of Sanjiang City have never been opened! I waited for a long time outside the city gate, and the people gathered outside the city were all gone, and the officers and soldiers on the tower shouted from above, saying It's martial law inside the city, and the city gates won't be opened for three days, and those of us outside won't get any news from inside the city at all..."

I went there early in the morning before dawn, and waited and waited hard, so tired, hungry and hot that I would die, otherwise he wouldn't have waited until now to return home.

Hearing this was the result, Old Qi cautiously turned his head and looked at Yu Su. When he saw Yu Su, Old Qi tried his best to smile and looked at her comfortingly, saying Amitabha repeatedly.

"Baby, it's okay, it's definitely okay, good boy, no news is good, at this juncture, no news is the best news! Bao, don't worry, your grandpa and grandma will be fine."

Facing the old lady's comfort, Yu Sumo was silent, then nodded heavily, and kept comforting herself in her heart. Grandma Qi was right, and told herself not to think too much, just wait for her family to pick her up honestly.

"Grandpa Qi, Grandma Qi, I understand. Thank you Grandpa Qi for helping me. The two elders have worked hard."

"Hehe, it's not hard, it's not hard...Baby, you stay in the house obediently, and Grandma will take you, Grandpa Qi, to wash Ang."

Comforting Yu Su, the old lady took her husband to the kitchen. After entering the kitchen, the old lady hurriedly looked back in the direction of the main room. Holding her husband's sleeve, she lowered her voice.

"Hey, old man, this kid Bao is so obedient, I can't bear to see it. For the sake of the kid, go find out the news tomorrow. Even though the city gate is not open, what if?"

Old Qitou thought for a while and nodded, "It will be done." He, who was also worried about the old man's situation, faced his wife's proposal, he said nothing, "I'll go tomorrow morning."

In this way, before dawn the next morning, Yu Su and Lao Qi once again bid farewell to Lao Qi and went out, starting a new round of anxious waiting.
