Chapter 130 - 130. Nobody cares
Tian Erya begged: "Master Wu, I really only want to see Zheng Yuansheng, so why don't you take me to see him?"

Wu Xiangrong lowered his face: "Didn't I tell you? I don't know where they are detained. If you don't believe me, get out of my house."

"Please trouble Master Wu." Seeing that there was no hope, Tian Erya bowed deeply, turned and walked out.

Wu Xiangrong grabbed her: "You are carrying a big bamboo basket and a burden, what are you going to do?"

"Go to the provincial capital to find Zheng Yuansheng."

"He may not be in the capital of Jiangnan Province, he may have been moved to another province. Didn't you understand what I just said?"

Tian Erya nodded: "I understand what you said, but I think Zheng Yuansheng failed to come back after he went to the Luming Banquet organized by the prefect. He must have been arrested in the provincial capital. I think he should be able to get him in the provincial capital." news, so I'm going to the provincial capital to wait."

"Do you have relatives and friends in the provincial capital? Can you find a place to stay?"

"No, I can live in a temple or by the side of the road, there will always be a way."

Wu Xiangrong laughed at her innocence: "In the middle of the night, you actually came up with such an idea, do you know that the city gate is closed? You can't get out of the county at all."

Tian Erya had her own idea: "It's a bit far from the city gate, and it will take me a while to reach the city gate. I'll rest for a while on the way, and when the city gate opens, I'll rescue it."

Wu Xiangrong rolled his eyes: "Are you really stubborn, or are you simply acting like an idiot?"

"I was stupid too. Young Master Wu, if you have any news about Zheng Yuansheng, please let me know."

"Even if I find out his whereabouts, you don't even have a place to stay in the provincial capital, how can I pass the news to you?"

Tian Erya seemed to see some hope, her eyes flickered: "Didn't you say that there is a Maji sword shop in the provincial capital, and you want to hire me as the shopkeeper? I can stay there for a while."

Wu Xiangrong looked at her with a gleam in his eyes, lost his mind for a moment, his heart beat faster, and quickly turned his back to calm his breath: "I haven't waited for your reply, Maji Sword Shop has hired another master master. You are a woman. The place where men gather is also inappropriate. You can’t find a job in the provincial capital, and even eating is a problem, so stop messing around and go home quickly!”

"It doesn't matter. I brought a lot of scissors and I can't find work. I can sell scissors along the road and fill my stomach."

Wu Xiangrong sighed in his heart, and tugged at her bamboo basket: "It's full of scissors?"

Tian Erya nodded: "Yes."

Wu Xiangrong weighed the bamboo basket, almost unable to bear it with one hand: "This bamboo basket is so heavy? You want to carry it on your back and sell it along the street every day until you find Zheng Yuansheng?"

"Yes."

"Is Zheng Yuansheng so good that you are so fascinated?" He was a little apprehensive.

"The fourth young master is very good and has a heart for me. I can't let down his friendship."

Wu Xiangrong sneered: "Zheng Yuansheng abandoned his wife and left him. He is a villain who is always in trouble. I didn't expect you to be infatuated with this kind of person. While you are thinking about your relationship with Zheng Yuansheng and my concubine's intentions, think about my sister's feelings. What is she in this marriage??"

Tian Erya retorted: "Your sister's escape from marriage shows that she wants to reject the marriage with Zheng Yuansheng. Zheng Yuansheng should be regarded as never married. It took a long time and many things for Zheng Yuansheng and I to have a good relationship with each other. Besides, let your sister remarry Zheng Yuansheng now. She and your Wu family will definitely not agree."

"Our Wu family disagrees, your father and your brother want you to have a good relationship with Zheng Yuansheng?"

"They don't want to either. However, I leave home and don't take the family's money. No matter what the consequences are, I will bear them alone and will not drag them down."

Wu Xiangrong laughed at her innocence: "You think too naively. You don't have shelter, food, or enough silver. You can't sell your scissors anymore, and you have problems eating. What should you do then?"

Tian Erya is very optimistic: "There will always be a way. When we came here from the hometown of the Yellow River, we were penniless, and we came here by relying on iron and begging on the street. I believe that there is always a way to survive. .”

"Could it be that you want to beg again?"

"If it really comes to the end of the mountain, begging is not impossible."

Wu Xiangrong looked at her as a matter of course, and patted his forehead: "Your skinless and faceless appearance really makes me speechless. I'm afraid of you. It just so happens that I'm going to the provincial capital tomorrow morning, and I'll pick you up by the way."

"Thank you, Young Master Wu." Tian Erya was overjoyed, put down the bamboo basket, and rubbed her shoulders.

"Look! You've only memorized kung fu for a while, and your shoulders are starting to ache. In the future, how can you go to the provincial capital to sell so many scissors along the streets?"

"It's okay. After I come out of my house, I will go to Zheng's house first, and then come here again. It takes a long time to walk. In the future, I will pay attention to taking a break in between so that I won't feel tired."

Wu Xiangrong picked up the bamboo basket and put it down: "It's about 5 kilometers from Zheng's house to my house. You walked such a long way with such a heavy thing on your back? Are you out of your mind?"

Tian Erya chuckled: "I can't help it. The ones I recite are food stuff. If I don't bring them, I might have to beg along the street."

"Just to save Zheng Yuansheng?"

"Ah."

Wu Xiangrong asked with some malice: "If you are asked to stay away from Zheng Yuansheng, and you cannot see him again in this life, will you agree?"

Tian Erya was stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately: "As long as I can save him, I will do it."

"He will be successful in the future, and it has nothing to do with you, do you agree?"

"agree."

"why?"

"I read Zheng Boke's article by Duan Yuyan. Although I don't really understand it, I also know that parents should consider deeply about their children. I like Zheng Yuansheng, and I hope he is particularly good. It's not because I like him. Tied to your side and watched him suffer."

Wu Xiangrong was furious when he heard this: "You are really self-sacrificing, Zheng Yuansheng is really blessed to have you like him in this life."

Tian Erya shook her head: "My natal family and I are poor and cannot help him. If he likes your sister and they become a loving couple, your sister, you and all your relatives and friends will use huge power and financial resources, Come get him. He's probably all right now."

"No." Wu Xiangrong leaned into her ear, "You should thank Zheng Yuansheng. Fortunately, you like him, so he won't be missed."

"What do you mean?"

"In the past, students who participated in cheating in imperial examinations were basically beheaded, and the few who survived were also exiled and rushed to the imperial court for amnesty. They may be released as civilians. However, they can no longer have fame, let alone participate in imperial examinations Examination. A scholar who cannot take the imperial examination is tantamount to a useless pawn, and no one is willing to invest money and energy."
