Did Su Yu fail the imperial examination this time?

After hearing this, other students in the classroom also gathered around.

When Song Youming came back yesterday, he brought back the results of this government examination.

everybody knows.

Song Youming passed the exam for the first time, but Su Yu, who had been defeated for many years in battles, failed again.

It turned out that the results were missed?

"Su Yu, is this true?"

Looking at everyone's incredulous expressions, Su Yu also knew that this reversal was indeed a bit rare.

He smiled and replied: "Of course it is true."

"The good news has been shown to Master."

"Although the ranking is average, only a few places from the bottom, it can be considered a pass."

After hearing this, the others all held their hands in congratulations.

Su Yu smiled and thanked them one by one.

After everyone finished congratulating them, they gradually dispersed.

He then packed up his things and prepared to buy a mirror for Gu Changle.

Song Youming hasn't left yet.

He packed up first and was waiting for Su Yu.

Knowing that Su Yu was going to the grocery store to buy things, Song Mingyi said that he would go with him.

The two of them walked out of the school gate together, and Song Youming asked Su Yu repeatedly.

"You have passed the government examination, and you have a good chance of passing the college examination."

"Then you should keep a thank-you poem for yourself."

"Then my poem of thanksgiving..."

When I was in Fucheng a few days ago, I felt that I had no chance to take the college examination, so Su Yu gave such a good thank-you poem to Zhang Wenyuan.

Now that Su Yu has passed the government examination himself, he will definitely have a chance in the college examination.

Then shouldn't he leave a song for himself that he can use? ?

Song Youming thought of this and decided to stay and wait for Su Yu before questioning him privately.

After all, this is not cabbage sold on the street, you can buy it casually.

It is not easy to write a good poem.

And if you give others' good ones as gifts, then there will be one more person competing.

Su Yu probably wouldn't be willing to do such a thing at this juncture.

Who knew that Song Youming's worries were completely unnecessary.

Su Yu replied nonchalantly: "Brother Youming, don't worry."

"Since I promised you, I naturally have to write it for you."

“I’ve had some thoughts in the past two days, and I believe I’ll be able to write them out soon.”

Song Youming finally relaxed after hearing what he said.

But he still hesitated and asked: "Then you wrote it for me, do you have anything else for yourself?"

Su Yu smiled.

"Of course there is."

"Although the gratitude poem is not as good as other poems..."

"Forehead......"

"Good work."

“But if I want to come up with a few more songs, it’s still no problem.”

The word "copy" rolled in my mouth, but luckily I didn't say it out.

Song Youming felt that he was not well.

"How many more songs can you come up with?

To Su Yu, these gratitude poems are really just cabbage on the street, right?

Therefore, this person has not made any progress in his studies for so many years, resulting in repeated failures.

Just spend your time studying these things that are not your real job?

Although poetry and essays are useful, what's the point if you keep failing in the imperial examinations?

But now that he had someone to ask for, Song Youming was embarrassed to say these educational words.

"In that case, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Su Yu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll give it to you in the next few days."

Song Youming finally became happy.

"Then when the college exam starts, let's set off together."

"We'll rent a carriage and go there together then."

Su Yu said: "I will have to go to Fucheng earlier than expected, so I won't be able to go with you."

"Ah? How long in advance?"

“It’ll probably be over around June.”

"So early?"

"Well, my wife is from Fucheng. I will take her back earlier and send her back as a gift."

Yes, after Su Yu got his results a few days ago, he and a young lady received their marriage certificate at the government office.

When the time comes, he can take his wife back to visit relatives and stay at her parents' home.

This way there won't be so much financial pressure.

If there wasn't much time in advance, Song Youming could still be accommodating.

But if we go so far in advance, we definitely won’t be able to go together.

After all, if you go to Fucheng so early, you can't just sprint with the master for a while. It will cost a lot more money for food and accommodation.

Although Song Youming's family was not poor, they were not so rich that they could spend their money carelessly.

"Then there's no way......"

"By the way, you said earlier that you were going to have a banquet when you came back. Can you set a time?"

Su Yu said: "We can wait until the college exam is over to discuss this matter."

"I don't have enough money on hand, so I have to prepare money to go to Fucheng."

"Too......"

Song Youming encouraged: "When you become a scholar, your life will be much better in the future."

"I'm sure your wife won't mind either."

Listening to his words of encouragement, Su Yu smiled and nodded.

"to your regards."

The two walked while chatting, and soon arrived at the nearest grocery store.

The shopkeeper knew Song Youming and greeted the two of them warmly.

"Mingzi, why are you here today?"

"Uncle Zhang, my classmate wants to buy something, I will come with him."

When the store first opened in the morning, Su Yu went here to buy bacon.

Although he came and went in a hurry, shopkeeper Zhang still recognized him.

Unexpectedly, he turned out to be Song Youming's classmate.

Shopkeeper Zhang asked enthusiastically: "What is your name, young boy? Which village are you from?"

Su Yu replied: "I am from Qiushui Village, my name is Su Yu."

"It's from Qiushui Village. It's not far from our town."

"Whatever you want to buy, I'll let the guy pick it out for you."

Su Yu replied: "I want to buy a mirror."

Shopkeeper Zhang waved and called the waiter who was greeting the guests over there.

"Ada, take this young man to a mirror seller and choose a good-looking one for him."

A greeting made the other two customers in the store turn their heads.

The two of them were also dressed as scholars, but they looked rather unfamiliar.

Obviously not from Su Yu's school.

One of the young men glanced at Su Yu and frowned.

Seems quite unhappy.

I saw the waiter was greeting the guest, and the guest was a little unhappy.

Su Yu waved his hand and asked him to continue greeting.

I asked shopkeeper Zhang to point in the direction and walked over to pick it out myself.

The mirrors at this time were all bronze mirrors, but they were polished very smooth.

Can clearly illuminate people's faces.

A small mirror as big as a palm with a handle.

There are also large framed mirrors that can be placed on the table.

Various patterns are carved on the wooden frame, which looks quite exquisite.

Su Yu looked at several models, but couldn't tell whether they were beautiful or ugly. He always felt that they were all the same.

He had no choice but to follow the most consistent aesthetics of straight men.

"Which of these mirrors is the most expensive?"

I can’t tell which one looks better, so just buy the expensive one!

Su Yu agreed with his idea, then turned to ask the guy who was not far behind him.

The guy was about to answer.

The guest next to him, who looked unhappy just now, said coldly.

"Buy something expensive?"

"Can you afford it?"
