Time flies, and two years have passed in a flash.
A lot has happened in these two short years.
Tangli's Ningfeng Restaurant is spread throughout Qinghe County, with a total of thirteen branches, one in almost every county.
Of course, this is not only the credit of Tang Li and Lu Ling, but also the credit of Zheng Ding.
Zheng Ding showed amazing business talent. After he handed over Baoqing Pavilion to Lu Qing, his focus shifted to the restaurant.
With Zheng Ding and Lu Ling running the restaurant, Tang Li had almost nothing to do later on.
Let's talk about Dabao and Xu Jue. They followed Du Qingyu and traveled to many places in the past two years. They went to the prosperous Kyoto and the desolate desert. They experienced the prosperity and bustle, the lonely smoke in the desert, and various exotic customs.
As the saying goes, reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. The knowledge these two children have gained is far beyond what can be learned from books.
The two children are growing up at a very fast pace.
They returned to Hedong County on the eve of the provincial examination and immediately took part in it.
Unsurprisingly, both children took first and second place in the provincial exam. This time, Xu Jue took first and Dabao took second. The two children were originally evenly matched, but the provincial exam simply forced a first and second place. Zhuo Shu also achieved an excellent score of 13th on the exam and was admitted to the provincial school.
Hedong County achieved such good results in the provincial examination that County Magistrate Zhu was so happy that he woke up laughing in his dreams. He was very proud of himself and felt more confident in front of the county governor, so he was scolded less often.
Because Dabao and Xu Jue were admitted to the provincial school and were going to study in Qinghe County, Tangli moved his family to Qinghe County again.
Qinghe County, south of the city.
Here, there are small bridges and flowing water, beautiful mountains and clear water, and a large mansion is located here. It is also some distance away from the market, so it is not noisy and is very suitable for living.
In the streets and alleys, you can often see scholars waving fans and girls holding up their skirts, revealing their romantic charm.
The Wei residence is located in this area.
Many of the houses here have three entrances and three exits. Wei's house has a large courtyard with two entrances. It is not big, but very exquisite.
From the flowers planted at the door, the layout of the gate, and the settings in the yard, everything shows the owner's intentions.
In the flower bushes in front of the yard, a slender figure was half-bent over, trimming the flowers.
She was wearing a pink dress, her hair was tied up and pinned with a jade hairpin, and her every move was full of charm.
When she stood up, we could see that she had a slender waist, which was held tightly by a belt. She had a slender figure and a very good body.
When she turned around, she saw an extremely beautiful face with extremely delicate features and eyebrows like light smoke. It was soft but not coquettish, beautiful but not gaudy, and had a cool feeling.
This is Tang Li. In the past two years, she has changed a lot and has become more mature.
When Tang Li turned around, he saw a pair of eyes staring at him with lustful eyes.
"Our little carp is becoming more and more beautiful."
The one who spoke was Du Qingyu.
In the past two years, Du Qingyu has not changed much. She is still as energetic as before, dressed in men's clothes, and no one doubts her identity as a woman.
Du Qingyu and Tang Li became familiar with each other, and they didn't buy a house in Qinghe County, but simply lived in Wei's house.
Everyone thought that Du Qingyu was Tangli's husband, which reduced some of Tangli's troubles, so Tangli no longer explained.
Tangli has become accustomed to Du Qingyu's daily praise and accepts it calmly.
She is beautiful to begin with, Du Qingyu was right.
Du Qingyu glanced around.
"Isn't Erbao on holiday today? Where is he?"
When the family moved, Erbao also changed his academy. This child did not like the Four Books and Five Classics and had an unconventional personality, so Tangli indulged him. Therefore, the academy Erbao attended now had much fewer class hours than other academies, more holidays, and more freedom.
"Take Sanbao and Du Xiaobai out." Tang Li said.
…
A bookstore.
A figure was wandering in front of the bookshelf.
He was a young boy, wearing a loose and long suit. His hair was tied up in a loose bun. His face was still childish, with a pair of peach blossom eyes, which showed that he had the potential to be a romantic. In the future, when his facial features grew more mature, he would definitely be a romantic young man.
This young boy is Erbao, Wei Ziyi.
Wei Ziyi looked around the bookshelf with a frown on his face, but when he saw a book, his eyes suddenly lit up.
When he was about to take the book, his other hand reached out, and the two of them did so almost at the same time.
The boy withdrew his hand and saw that the other person was a boy older than him.
It was obvious that both of them were interested in this book.
This book "Fengdu Strange Tales" was one he had been looking for for a long time. He had only heard some stories in it from the streets and alleys, and he was immediately attracted to it. Then he searched all the bookstores in Qinghe County before he found it in this bookstore!
He was itching to borrow the book immediately and read it in one go, unable to wait a moment.
He looked at the boy who was older than him.
The young man looked ruffian, with his arms folded, looking down at him condescendingly.
"I'll give it to you after I finish reading it." The young man said in a domineering tone.
As he said that, he picked up the book and held it high, not letting Wei Ziyi take it.
Wei Ziyi couldn't wait any longer and glared at him angrily.
The boy raised an eyebrow: "Why? You want to snatch it from me?"
The next moment, Wei Ziyi's cheeks puffed up, his eyes widened, and his peach blossom eyes became round, staring at the young man pitifully.
juvenile:"……"
The young man was looked at pitifully by him, and the arrogance and ruffian spirit on his face gradually disappeared, and his expression softened.
"Never mind, just take this book and read it first." The young man said in a gruff voice, not wanting to admit that he was actually touched by cuteness.
The young man gave the book to Wei Ziyi, who happily accepted it.
The boy turned and left.
"Thank you for giving it to me. I can finish reading it in three days. You can come and borrow it from me after three days." Wei Ziyi bowed to the young man.
The boy walked out of the library.
"It's shameful to act cute."
The person who spoke was the proprietress of the bookshop, who was about twenty years old, slightly older than his mother. Wei Ziyi mingled with many bookshops, and although this one was small, he came often and had become acquainted with the proprietress.
"But this book is a unique piece, and the library has a rule that unique pieces cannot be loaned out."
Wei Ziyi smiled brightly at her and said coquettishly, "Boss lady, just lend it to me. I promise it won't be damaged at all."
The proprietress was dazzled by his smile and felt that she would give the little guy whatever he wanted.
She was dazed and broke the rules and borrowed the book.
Wei Ziyi took the book and walked out of the library.
The proprietress looked at his back, smiled and shook her head: "What a little fox."
He is so cunning at such a young age and can accurately grasp people's hearts. He will be even more amazing when he grows up.
Wei Ziyi paused at the door of the library. He didn't know where his sister and Du Xiaobai had gone, so he had to go find them.
