He didn't expect that he would have such a day. He and her had always said that if he could become an official here, he could lead her to live a good life in the county.
Uncontrollable fatigue hit his body and mind. He felt so tired. At this time, he especially wanted to hide in a deserted corner.
At noon, the sun was very bright. On the second floor of the hotel, through the window, Zhuoer looked at the increasingly lively crowds on the street. She was waiting so impatiently that her heart palpitated.
It was time to check out the guest room soon. She originally thought that if he got the news, she would not have to stay here anymore, so she would not have to spend any more money. In the past, twenty cents was enough to feed the family for a month, but now it is just It cost so much to live there for one day, and she was very reluctant to part with it.
Now that she hasn't heard from him, she is worried about whether she will have to live alone in the future.
Wang Zhuoer had no choice but to pay the room fee. She was standing on the first floor. The lobby on the first floor of the inn was full of guests. There was fried beef and various dishes on a table two meters away from her. They were placed on every table. Wine, it made her want to have a meal, but she always felt a little uneasy.
When she looked at the table, the three big men surrounding the table were also staring at her, their eyes full of surprise.
"Miss, would you like to sit down and have a meal with me?" One of the tall men invited him with a serious face. He had never seen a woman wearing rough clothes be so elegant and tall. It is very rare for a woman to have such a good figure, especially one of such height. There was a worried look in her eyes, which made him feel moved.
Zhuo'er had been staying alone in the inn for a long time without speaking. She felt a little panicked when this strange man spoke to her. In order to hide her expression, she hurriedly walked out of the inn without looking back.
"Brother Zhang has fallen in love with this woman?" Another man next to him said, his eyes also full of surprise.
"This woman is so beautiful in such clothes. If we give her good clothes, wouldn't she be stunningly beautiful?" Zhang Hao said, he did not chase her out, she would definitely come back.
Walking on this street full of people, her steps were a little hurried, and her eyes were looking ahead. How she wished she could see that frail, tall man.
'You won't forget me when you become an official, die Shen Jie. 'She felt a little uncomfortable thinking about this.
Walking through the alleys of this street, Zhuo'er's eyes saw a young man lying in front of the corner with blood on his legs. Her expression suddenly changed. She walked up to him, still unable to believe what she saw.
She lifted up his hair and saw this familiar man. She couldn't believe that such a thing would happen.
"Mr. Shen, what's going on?" She said feeling uncomfortable.
He didn't answer, and there were people around looking at them.
"Let's go back to the inn first." Zhuo'er said. She felt embarrassed by being looked upon by so many people. She spent a lot of effort to pull him up.
A sharp pain in his lower body made Shen Jie almost fall to the ground again.
Shen Jie felt that this street was so long, and he had already thought of all the looks he would face when he walked into the inn.
Walking on the stairs leading to the second floor, the wooden boards under his feet were banging, and there were many eyes looking at the two of them in the hall. He really wanted to go to the second floor quickly, but when he was about to walk up, Zhuoer It felt like he suddenly quickened his pace.
Lying on the bed, he looked at the woman who was fetching water and wiping himself.
"Damn it, that county magistrate said that my document was expired. Not only did he not give me an official position, he also slapped me twenty times." Shen Jie said with anger on his face. He took a deep breath and suddenly felt that he The future is so confusing.
Zhuo'er seemed to have thought of this outcome just now. She sat on a stool nearby, thinking that she still had more than 2,000 yuan, so she could live in the county temporarily, but if he didn't have a serious job, the two of them would just She could sit back and have nothing, but she really didn't want to go back like this. She really couldn't stand the ridicule of everyone in the family.
"Although your documents have expired, you are still a scholar. There will be Qiu Wei in Jiangnan Mansion in August this year. You can take the exam." Zhuo'er said.
Shen Jie was told by her: "Then I will prepare well in the next few months. We still have a lot of money on us, which should be enough to cover the expenses along the way."
"I originally wanted to stay here, but the officials here are like this. I feel that there is no king's law in a small place. If you pass the exam, we will take root in a big place." Zhuo'er said.
"Since you said that, I have to prepare well now." Color aroused in Shen Jie's heart again.
When she applied the medicine to herself, her expression was no longer as listless as before. After this incident, he felt more and more how important she was to him.
He couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. He looked at the mosquito net on the bed. He couldn't fall asleep no matter what. He wanted to wake up the woman next to him, chat with her for a while, and tell him that it was really difficult for him to pass the exam. .
He still didn't say that autumn would be three months away, so he still had time.
