Chapter 92

Xue Bai was selected as a scholar, and he will go to the county school to study in early June. Because of Mr. Zhao's recommendation, he can be allocated a dormitory specially prepared for students from far away.If there is no accident, he will live in the county for the next two months. In August, he will go directly from the county school to Fucheng to participate in Qiu Wei, so he can only live at home for less than a month.

He wanted to stay at home every day, but he was also the head of the case this year, so there was naturally some social interaction between classmates.After finally calming down, he locked the gate of the town house and prepared to go home.Although the fame of a scholar is nothing, it is also a fame, isn't it?There are some things that he has wanted to do for a long time, and it is time for him to act.

The thought made him wish he could fly all the way home with wings under his armpits.

But everyone walked to the stone bridge in the north of the town, and suddenly remembered that there seemed to be not much honey left in the house. He touched the broken silver in his sleeve, folded it back, and went straight to the Lin Family Medical Center.

Dongqiao Town can be said to be big or small, but when there is something lively, almost everyone knows it.Although Xue Bai did not ride a big horse on the street like Zhuangyuan Lang, but he has been in the town for a long time, and he has been in and out of the restaurants on the main street with his friends many times in the past few days. I still know him, including the most well-informed shop assistants.

No, just after he stepped into the threshold of the medical clinic, the little guy he used to know greeted loudly: "Hey, our new case is here!" His voice was full of joy.

Xue Bai bowed his hands to the congratulatory crowd in a graceful manner, with a natural and easy-going smile, neither complacent nor false modesty.

"Excuse me, shopkeeper, bring me another can of jujube honey." After finishing the courtesies, he walked to the counter and said with a smile.

The shopkeeper also had a smile on his face, and he turned around and ordered the waiter to go to the back to get the goods. Just as he was about to chat with Xue Bai, he caught a glimpse of two slender figures coming from the side door out of the corner of his eye. Is there anything to order?"

Lin Yi'an smiled gently, and waved his hand to signal him to get busy. His eyes fell on Xue Bai, and he walked over and said with a smile: "This is the new chief of our town. He really looks extraordinary. In Lin Yi'an, this is my cousin. Lin Yixiu, just now he heard that the young master in charge of the case is coming, so he couldn't help but come out to get acquainted."

Seeing Lin Yixiu's appearance clearly, Xue Bai was slightly surprised, and then his heart moved, and he hurriedly replied: "Young master, you are too polite, Xue is just selected as a scholar, it is really an honor for Xue to meet Lin Jieyuan today, and I hope to see you again in the future." Xue is very grateful for Lin Jieyuan's guidance and clarification."

He was studying in the town and had heard of the Lin family in Dongqiao Town for a long time.

The Lin family has practiced medicine for generations, but their descendants are few. Now Lin De, the head of the family, has only two sons.The second son, Lin Chengqinmin, took the imperial examinations and won the third grade. He became the official of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the third rank of the left deputy, and the imperial envoy.Lin Yixiu, who was 16 years old at the time, was already Jieyuan in Kyoto, and probably because of family changes, the current examination was delayed.However, he also did not participate in the last exam. Xue Bai analyzed it when chatting with his classmates, and finally came to a more reasonable guess, that is, Lin Yixiu understood that even if he passed the palace exam, the Holy Majesty would not It is very likely that he will not be selected to enter the Hanlin Academy, so he voluntarily gave up the two opportunities for the examination.Now the sage is old and Lin Yixiu is only 21 years old, of course he can afford to wait, once the preserved crown prince ascends the throne, the Lin family will definitely recover...

"Brother Xue, you are being polite. Can you go to the county school to study next month?" Lin Yixiu looked at him for a moment, then asked suddenly.

Xue Bai nodded.

Lin Yixiu smiled lightly: "Since that's the case, if you have any questions about your studies, just go to the county government office and find me. I have some archives from previous years, and I can lend you to study them."

Both Xue Bai and Lin Yi'an were surprised.Xue Bai was the first to react. Although he was puzzled, he still thanked him sincerely.

Lin Yixiu nodded, turned around and went back.

Lin Yi'an bid farewell to Xue Bai, and quickly chased after him. When he reached the yard, he asked suspiciously, "Second brother, why are you being so polite to him?"

Lin Yixiu stood still, stared at a crabapple in the courtyard for a moment, then turned around and said, "Brother, I have something to trouble you for."

Getting to know Lin Yixiu was finally a happy event. Xue Bo walked home briskly with the jar of honey in hand.

Not long after the Xue family harvested the wheat, Xue Song and Xue Shu were planting sticks in the field, while Ye Ya and Lin were sitting at the north gate to enjoy the shade, talking lively.Seeing Xue Bai coming in, Ye Ya was happy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, and said to Lin with a bitter face: "Second aunt, the third brother is back, you can go ask him directly, he insists on me rejecting those marriages, I ran away after the order, and there was nothing I could do."

These days, Mrs. Lin is going to be annoyed to death by various matchmakers. Some of those people came directly to Xue's house, but after being rejected by Ye Ya, they went to her instead, and some went to her directly. And these matchmakers were talking about kissing Xue Bai, With Xue Song, there are even a few who came here for Chun Xing!Her own daughter, her character and appearance are there, and she will never worry about marrying in the future. She originally planned to stay for one more year, but now that there is a good person to propose, she is thinking, it is better to make a decision as soon as possible.It's just that these marriages are all based on the third nephew's reputation as a scholar, and she has to make arrangements for the marriage of the two nephews before she can worry about Chun Xing.

"Sir, come here, I have something to ask you!" Seeing that Xue Bai wanted to hide in the east room after saying hello, Lin yelled loudly.

Xue Bai sighed helplessly, put the honey on the pot, went to sit next to Mrs. Lin, and took the initiative to explain: "Second aunt, I know what you want to ask, so my nephew can explain it to you clearly. You see, now It's less than three months away from Qiu Wei, I have to concentrate on studying for the exam, how can I have the time to be distracted by my marriage? If Qiu Wei is in the middle, it will be Chun Wei soon, so I don't have the energy to care about it."

"Do you want to wait until you come back from Chunwei? You can wait, I'm afraid the girl can't wait, there are several good families here, it would be a pity to miss it, just like the Zhao family in the town, his family... …”

"Second aunt, why can't you figure it out?" Xue Bai interrupted her with a smile, and said very calmly: "These families are indeed good in the town, but if my nephew wins the Juren and the Jinshi, there will naturally be more A good marriage is waiting for me. Second Aunt, it’s not that my nephew dislikes their backgrounds, but if my nephew wants to make a difference in the officialdom, it’s best to marry a lady from an official family as much as possible. Now, everything is still undecided, so there’s really no rush .”

After speaking, he raised his hand to rub his forehead, and under the cover of his hand, he winked quietly at Ye Ya.

Ye Ya gave him an angry look, turned her head to look at the backyard, but the corners of her lips curled up involuntarily.

Lin really didn't think too much about it. In her opinion, being able to marry a rich lady in the town is already pretty good.

But my nephew is a scholar, he thinks a lot and sees far, and it makes sense to think about it.Immediately, Lin felt that the third nephew was already an adult, and his marriage could not be arranged by a village woman like her.Concealing the faint disappointment in her heart, she said again: "Second Aunt doesn't care about your affairs, but you can help me persuade your eldest brother, you are so stubborn, insisting that those girls only want to marry him because of your face , resolutely refused to agree. Tell me, it doesn’t matter why they want to marry, as long as they are good people, and they are willing to live with him well, there are so many twists and turns!"

Xue Bai coughed, pondered for a moment, and said, "Brother's matter is actually not in a hurry. Second aunt and nephew really want to be an official, and they are confident that they have the ability. If they really become officials, our two families will follow me. Going to live in Ren, how about second aunt helping elder brother find a good marriage nearby at that time? Now that I’m looking for it, the girl left her home, maybe she won’t like it in her heart.”

Lin is stupid, nephew still wants them to follow?
"No, no, you three can just move there. Your second uncle and I have been farming all our lives, so we can't bear to stay here." Mrs. Lin firmly refused. Seeing that Xue Bai still wanted to persuade her, she quickly stood up and walked out while talking. Let's go, "Okay, second aunt knows, you have already made up your mind, you don't need me and your second sister-in-law to worry about it. That's fine, since you think so far, then give second aunt some courage, and you will really be a Jinshi next year Come back, let Second Aunt hold her head up in front of those matchmakers, and don't let them have the opportunity to humiliate us."

Xue Bai and Ye Ya hurriedly got up to see her off, and spoke a lot of words of comfort. Lin pretended to be angry and glared at Xue Bai a few times, and went home.

Ye Ya looked at her back and sighed: "Second Aunt has worked hard, so I'm sure I'm going to offend those matchmakers."

There was no one around, Xue Bo pulled Ye Ya into the door, pushed her against the door, held her blushing face and said, "Since I love Second Aunt, why don't my elder brother and I choose two good girls to marry? "

Ye Ya immediately raised her head, her bright black eyes were full of anger, but when she met Xue Bai's teasing eyes, knowing that he was deliberately teasing her, she blushed even more, and said without opening her eyes: "You marry, marry whoever you want Who, me and your second brother..." Before he finished speaking, his lips were caught.

Ye Ya groaned and struggled, how could she be like this at the door in broad daylight, it would be bad to be seen by others!Although the door is closed, the feet of the two can still be seen below!
Xue Bai naturally knew that something was wrong here, but just now seeing her rosy lips opening and closing seductively in front of his eyes, his heart was itchy for a while.

He wanted to leave with a light touch, but the person under him had softened, making him even more reluctant to let go, and he retreated after a long time, panting slightly: "Second sister-in-law, I'm going to take a bath tonight." He couldn't wait .

Ye Ya bowed her head and hummed.

Xue Bai raised her chin, and looked at each other: "I want you to help me wash..."
