Splendid peasant girl

Chapter 395 The Reader

It takes about half an hour to go from Xiaocha Village to the town by bullock cart, or a quarter of an hour by horse-drawn cart.

From the south of the town to the north of the town, and then all the way north to the county seat, it would take at least half a day by ox cart, but it would take at most an hour by horse-drawn cart.

Shen Qiqiao and her team set off at about eight o'clock in the morning, heading north all the way, and bought some steamed buns and steamed buns to take along the road when they passed by a small town.

At about eleven o'clock at noon, I finally arrived at the county seat.

The county seat is no better than the town, people come and go, the flow is endless, very lively.

The last time when Shen Qiqiao and Ye Han entered the county seat, they sat in a prison cart, guarded by officers and soldiers, and couldn't see the scenery. After that, they rode straight away without appreciating the prosperity of the county seat.

But Shen Qiqiao had seen the metropolises of later generations, so she didn't have much feeling for such a small county with a population of only a hundred thousand or so.

Except for Ye Han showing a little bit when he mentioned Shen Qiqiao, he usually looked calm and calm, so he didn't show any expression at this time.

On the other hand, Shen Mu and Song Qingshu were very curious about the county seat, and sat in the carriage looking around.

Especially Shen Mu, chirping non-stop, jumping up and down almost lifted the roof of the carriage.

Shen Qiqiao was speechless, she pushed her younger brother onto the carriage, and said to Ye Han: "Find an inn to rest for a while, after a good meal, go visit that Master Xu."

"it is good!"

Ye Han drove to an inn, and immediately a waiter came out to welcome them in politely.

Compared with the small towns, the various consumptions in the county must be much higher. A few people only stayed for one day, but it cost them five taels of silver, which can buy a big girl in the village.

Fortunately, they are rich and powerful now, and they don't care.

After a rest at noon.They went directly to Master Xu's residence.

It is said that Master Xu was a master when he was young, and he was very talented in literature, and his poems and songs were widely circulated. He was once listed as one of the four great talents in Guangling County.

It's a pity that during the imperial examination, I accidentally offended the clan's children who held the lifeline of the imperial examination, and was tragically "hidden rules".

Since then, Mr. Xu looked down on fame and fortune, retired and returned home, not caring about world affairs.

And he became an ordinary county school teacher in Fenglin County, a small county under Jincheng.

It's just that he is so talented, even in such a small county, he can't hide his edge.

There are many dignitaries under his command, it can be said that there are peaches and plums all over the world, so many people come to him to study.

When Shen Qiqiao and Ye Han rushed to the front of Master Xu's house, they found many people waiting in the side hall. They looked like they were scholars, and they probably came to study with Master Xu.

"Several, this way please!"

A member of the Xu family came over, and the group of them led into the side hall, and then walked away without even giving them a cup of tea.

There are already many people waiting in the side hall.

When they saw Ye Han and others coming in, their first glance fell on Ye Han. Seeing the bluish-purple birthmark on the right side of his face, many people showed disdain.

But when his eyes fell on Shen Qiqiao...

I saw this girl with red lips and white teeth, eyebrows like willows, face like peach blossoms, skin like creamy fat, slender waist, slim and graceful, and her figure is full of green plums, sour and sweet.

Several scholars immediately greeted her with a smile and looked at her from a distance.

Shen Qiqiao's face was slightly stiff, and she felt a cold breath coming from her side.

It is obviously summer, but why is it so cold?
Is there a sour smell in the air-conditioning?
