Li Lin's knowledge is obvious to all the gentlemen. When Li Lin and Song Zhan studied together at Shiqiao Academy, his ability was also superior to Song Zhan's. Song Zhan would ask him for advice on many questions.
It is precisely because of this that in everyone's eyes, Song Zhan, a student who was just finishing high school, suddenly rose to great heights and actually won the top prize.
It was a joyful thing for Song Zhan to win the first prize, but they really couldn't understand why Li Lin failed. Several gentlemen regarded it as a pity.
They wondered if something went wrong and they failed the test, and they wanted him to work harder next time, but Li Lin refused to take the test, saying that he didn't have that ambition.
If Li Lin takes the exam, Shiqiao Academy will definitely produce another top scholar.
such a pity!
Li Lin smiled: "I won't take the exam anymore. Now I think it's pretty good, so I'll let others fight for it."
The people who asked the question expressed regret and felt very sorry. Although they wanted to persuade him again, they also knew Li Lin's temperament. Since he said he wouldn't go, they wouldn't go.
Shi Chongshan smiled and said: "These people have their own ambitions. Don't force Jingyuan. Maybe if he becomes a teacher, he can train a few more champions."
"That's right. Maybe Jingyuan will be able to achieve great things as a teacher."
"Speaking of which, I have lived half my life and taught for more than twenty years, but I am not as good as you, Jingyuan."
"Thank you, gentlemen."
There was a lot of excitement in the main room, and the women sitting on stools in the backyard listened quietly for a while.
Aunt Shi Er said: "You'd better not worry about their affairs. It seems that Jingyuan and the princess are not without success. They will have children sooner or later. Just treat the previous things as in the past. In your heart No matter what thoughts you have, you must never mention them again.”
"Now that Jingyuan is here, it means they are still willing to interact with you. Don't be confused again. Your head and children will blame you when the time comes."
There are only a few close relatives in this life. As the saying goes, even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. Shi Chongshan is just a sister. If the Zhou family continues to make trouble and the two families no longer interact, how can Shi Chongshan do it? No idea.
Mrs. Zhou moved her lips, lowered her eyes and nodded: "Second sister-in-law, I know what to do. I was confused before, but I won't do it anymore."
Aunt Shi Er nodded: "It's best if you think so. Just move around slowly in the future. After a long time, this matter will be over."
Zhou thought to herself, there is no such time for you to ease the relationship, maybe they will leave in a year and a half.
After so many things happened, Zhou had already regretted it, but things had been done and the estrangement existed. It was probably impossible to get along with each other like in the past.
Aunt Shi Er said: "You also have to do what you promised to the Fourth Young Master of Duke Ning's house before. We can't break our promise to him before. Although you have to endure some hardships, it's just a hardship." It’s just a little worse. If you don’t eat meat, eat more vegetables and fruits. You won’t be hungry and you won’t suffer much.”
"Let's settle this matter so that people from the Jinning Palace won't trouble you in the future. When people try to reason with you, you just want to get along well with you. When you get along, you have to accept it. When people are unreasonable, you ask for help. Home is useless.”
Aunt Shi Er was afraid that Mrs. Zhou would be distracted for a while and something would happen again.
Mrs. Zhou said: "Second sister-in-law, don't worry. Just to reply to the letter, I won't do anything stupid again. My reply will have a bright future in the future, but it can't be ruined because of me."
"Besides, that maid lives in Hui Hua's old house and stares at me every day."
Su Xunzhen chose a maid in Jingpingyuan and sent it to the Shi family to keep an eye on Zhou. Therefore, Zhou did not dare to do anything in private. She ate vegetarian meals three times a day and chanted sutras during the day if she had nothing to do. Pray for blessings, but do what you promised seriously.
"That's the best."
Aunt Shi Er and others helped prepare two banquet tables. Shi Chongshan and several gentlemen went to the table to eat, drink and chat. Eight dishes were placed on both tables, including three meat dishes, three vegetarian dishes and two soups, one plate of meat dishes and one plate of chicken. Fish and another plate of bacon and fried dried bamboo shoots are also extremely rich.
The group of people sat down to eat and talk. There was a portion of white porridge and vegetables in front of Mrs. Zhou. She drank the light white porridge and looked at the food in front of her. She really felt a little uncomfortable. She thought that if she could endure it for another two months, Then she can eat it.
Things in Shi Huixin High School were busy for two days, but Shi Huixin did not come back. He just wrote a letter and told Shi Chongshan that he would stay in the Imperial City to study and prepare for the next palace examination.
Shi Chongshan and Zhou wished that he would work harder, so they wrote a letter to him, asking him to study hard and take care of himself. If Zhou had not been able to leave, she would have gone to the Imperial City to take care of Shi personally and replied to the letter.
.
Two days later, Jiubian hurried back. This time after he went out, he was busy asking about Yuelou and picked a few places to open.
Wenyue Tower is a modified version of Jianjia Tower. He changed his name to Wenyue Tower after listening to Su Wan.
When he received Li Lin's letter, he was also startled, almost scared out of his wits, and then quickly arranged the things at hand, and then hurried back slowly.
When he returned to the entrance of Jingpingyuan, he was still dusty and haggard. He still had the charm of the romantic nobleman before.
"Yo? What are you doing? How did you get yourself into this?"
Yuanyou sat on top of the second wall, leaning against the wall, looking down at Jiubian, with some gloating in his words. This dead fox was unlucky, so he was naturally happy.
Thinking of how much he had suffered at the hands of this dead fox over the years, he subconsciously reached out and grasped the handle of the knife.
Should I draw my sword?
But this is so miserable, should we let him go first?
Jiubian quickly stopped: "Okay, I have something important to do when I come back this time, and I don't have time to argue with you. I'll settle the accounts next time. Where is the young master?"
After Yuanyou heard what he said, he let him go for a while and removed his hand from the handle of the knife: "Then I'll let you go for now, the young master is in the study."
At this point, Yuanyou's face condensed slightly: "You are so anxious to come back to find the young master, has something happened?"
"It's okay, everything is fine." Jiubian had a headache. "It's my own business. Okay, I'm going to see the young master. Please step aside and I'll treat you to roast chicken later."
"Why are you eating roast chicken? I'm afraid I'll be poisoned by you. Okay, okay, go quickly."
Jiubian thanked him, and then walked into the yard. Yuanyou sat on the wall, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong he felt. When had this damn fox been so polite to him, and wanted to treat him to roast chicken even after thanking him?
Could it be that I did something wrong and wanted to please him, and wanted him to help me plead for mercy when the young master blamed me?
