Chapter 457: Double Pun



Huang Minbo hummed, his mouth wide open.

Ling Jiran shook his head and thought to himself, how naive, not as smart as his elder and second brothers.

Isn't a Juren excellent? No, to be a Juren is already a dragon among men!

Ling Jiyi caught a glimpse of the two of them being close to each other and felt a little choked.

He hurried forward and pulled Huang Minbo over to eat, giving him a warning look.

"You kid, be careful. If you lose your sense of proportion and let Ji Ran be criticized, don't blame me for opposing your marriage!"

Huang Minbo keenly grasped the meaning, smiled awkwardly, and gave an apologetic look.

Ling Jiran felt a little embarrassed, but since no one was looking at her, the embarrassment gradually disappeared.

I turned my head to look at my second brother and his wife, and found that they were really oblivious to the people around them.

I feel a little envious, but I feel that I can't do it.

At least, she didn't dare to hold hands with a man in public, even if that man was her husband.

Having achieved his goal, Chi Xingyue did not linger outside the academy.

Having Ling Yi and the others help deliver the things to the dormitory, Chi Xingyue instructed Ling Jiheng: "Just do your best and don't tire yourself out.

I brought you some young leaves from an old tea tree. Drink more water while you rest."

Ling Jiheng knew that Chi Xingyue was reminding him to take care of his health.

Nodding: "Don't worry, I will take good care of myself."

After saying that, he turned around and walked into the academy, looking back every few steps.

Chi Xingyue waited until his figure completely disappeared before taking Ling Jiran home.

Because of her physical disability, the ox cart moved very slowly.

Since they didn't have time to eat, they just ate in the car.

Put the chicken soup on the small stove and serve it when it is warm.

Chi Xingyue ate two big chicken legs, while the others only had a slight taste.

There are plenty of buns, but they are not hot enough.

Ling Yi and his friends soaked the buns in chicken soup, softened them and stuffed them into their mouths.

I can’t say it’s very delicious, but it’s not bad either.

Just like that, it was dark when I got home.

The old lady hurriedly called for food. After the group wolfed down their meal, they started talking about the academy.

"Don't worry, grandma. My husband is doing fine. My third brother is also very refined."

"Where is Minbo?" Geng Suhua asked.

Chi Xingyue looked at Ling Jiran with a smile and said nothing.

Ling Jiran blushed, unable to bear the teasing gazes of the crowd, and nodded: "Yeah, that's pretty good!"

Geng Suhua knew that she was speaking with a double meaning.

Not only did she say that Huang Minbo was fine, she also told herself that the two of them got along well and there was room for development.

Geng Suhua breathed a sigh of relief and did not ask about the details of their relationship.

Ling Jiran also breathed a sigh of relief and sipped the egg soup.

At Changhe Academy, students who finished a day's study dragged their tired bodies back to the dormitory.

One of them stood out, and his classmates joked, "Brother Minbo, you're so happy, are you sure about the teacher's questions?"

Huang Minbo shook his head: "I have no idea yet. I'm just thinking about my parents at home and that's why I'm so excited."

The man nodded: "Come to think of it, I haven't been home for more than three months. I don't know if my parents miss me."

Huang Minbo didn't say anything, but quickly returned to the room, took out some letter paper, and wrote down what had happened during this period.

The key point is that he has fallen in love with the girl from the Ling family and has obtained the approval of Mrs. Ling, and hopes that his parents will agree.

After writing, he sealed the letter and said to the servant, "Please mail it out for me tomorrow. Please hurry up."

The servant replied "yes" and put the letter in his arms.

After washing up, Huang Minbo lay down on the bed, but found that he was too excited to sleep.

He laughed and scolded himself for being useless, got dressed, lit a candle and worked late into the night.

Time passed little by little, and it was early February in the blink of an eye.

Students from all over the country gathered in the city, and the restaurants and inns were packed.

Even many houses in the suburbs have been rented out.

Chi Xingyue's bakery has launched some affordable products at the right time.

Many students come here to buy some cakes to try, and they can also get a handkerchief embroidered with auspicious words.

Chi Xingyue's test basket market is average, one or two a day is enough for her to make money.

In addition, some people came to ask questions.

"Excuse me, boss, do you have noodles that can be eaten by soaking them in hot water?"

Ling Qi laughed: "Yes!"

As he spoke, he took out a bamboo basket from under the counter, which contained instant noodle cakes wrapped in oil paper.

Ten in a pack, neatly arranged, and not expensive.

"Why don't you put it out there for sale? It's such a convenient thing, you're sure to make a lot of money!"

Ling Qi did not hide it: "This side is good, but it is too troublesome to make.

In addition, most of the buyers are students, and the boss lady is reluctant to sell to them, fearing that something might go wrong.

So if you want to buy it, you have to sign this agreement.

We guarantee that the goods we sell have no quality problems, but we don't know if anything will happen when you take them back.

I'm so sorry, we were so petty."

Ling Qi's frank attitude not only did not disgust the students, but instead they all cooperated and signed their names.

After all, they are telling the truth.

When it comes to the future, everyone will do their best.

It is inevitable that there are people with bad intentions who use shady means.

It's hard to guard against.

Ling Qi was also reminding them in disguise to pay attention to their diet.

Therefore, the bakery's business was not affected at all. Instead, because of Ling Qi's honesty, it welcomed wave after wave of students.

First, I was curious about what such a sincere shopkeeper looked like.

Secondly, let’s take a look at what the instant noodles that people are flocking to are.

Also how to eat it and what it tastes like.

Ling Qi was annoyed by the large number of people asking him questions, so he set up a pot at the door of the store.

After the water boiled, I threw in an egg, threw in a few vegetable leaves, picked them up, and added some seasoning.

Wow, it smells so good that everyone on the street is dizzy.

The reputation of instant noodles spread far and wide, and many people who did not participate in the imperial examination came to join in the fun, bought a pack, and took it home to let their families try it.

Ling Qi naturally did not treat them differently, but as a result, the inventory quickly ran out.

She cried and asked Chi Xingyue for help, but Chi Xingyue spread his hands, indicating that he could do nothing to help.

By the way, she has already taken out all the bread in the supermarket.

The space hasn't been refreshed, so she can't change it.

I have studied the method myself, but it is not only time-consuming, but also difficult to guarantee the quality.

She didn't dare to use it to harm others.

Just like that, the bakery stopped selling instant noodles, and many people who couldn't buy them were beating their chests and stamping their feet.

Of course, there were also those who relied on connections, such as the brothers Yu Yanqing and Yu Yanlang.

He was locked up in the academy and didn't have time to get out. By the time he found out, all the noodles were sold out.

I can only ask Ling Jiheng.

What else could Ling Jiheng do? Apart from taking out the instant noodles from the secret room, he was helpless.

In this way, I provided help to a group of friends, and the matter was completely resolved.

On the fifth day of February, the re-examination before the joint examination began.

Just like the quiz before the provincial examination, the scores were divided into one, two, three, four, and no other.

The top three classes are eligible to take part in the imperial examination, the fourth class will be punished, and those who are not ranked will be even worse off, as they will be stripped of their status as Juren.
