Life is hard for ordinary people; they'll do anything to survive!
Therefore, in this situation, having multiple skilled people escorting you naturally provides an extra layer of protection.
Seeing that Chi Yu nodded, Guo Fu immediately beckoned someone from behind and asked him to take over Qin Mu's position.
And just like that, the couple separated.
Before leaving, Chi Yu slipped two hundred taels of silver into his hand during a private conversation.
In addition, he gave each of the two houses in Jianzhou Prefecture a key.
He was also instructed to buy more heatstroke relief pills from the pharmacy.
In addition, they even stuffed some dried mint leaves into his arms.
After her younger sister returned and the carriage drove away, Chi Qiao couldn't help but sigh:
"Amu is in first place again!"
I'm still thinking about how to celebrate when I get back, taking advantage of the opportunity of you treating people to dinner.
It seems that it's not going to work now.
If we had known it would turn out like this, we should have gone back with Liu Luyuan and Li Mingguang yesterday.
Liu Luyuan and Li Mingguang have both passed the preliminary examination, but Liu Luyuan's ranking is slightly lower.
Chi Yu and her sister both felt that it was because his body couldn't hold on.
They were all in a coma, and it seems that by the end of the exam, they were all unconscious.
To be able to pass the exam under such circumstances shows that one's talent and learning are truly exceptional.
Therefore, the two sisters spoke with each of them separately before they left.
They probably agreed because they considered their own and their families' circumstances.
Liu Luyuan was the youngest child in his family, with several older brothers.
Because his elder brother and sister-in-law had been supporting his studies all these years, they were dissatisfied and separated the family property before the new year.
Now, he lives with his parents.
He only had his parents to support, and he wanted to take them to Chijia'ao to become a teacher.
Li Mingguang's family situation is more complicated.
His biological mother died long ago, and the current mother is his stepmother.
But his stepmother was a good person and treated him like her own son.
Over the years, his family has spent a lot of money to support his education, and the one who contributed the most was his stepbrother, who came from his stepmother's family.
His family hadn't split up, and now that he had passed the imperial examination, he naturally couldn't abandon them.
So he told Chi Yu that he could become a teacher, but it might be inconvenient if he had a family to support.
Adding to the fact that my parents and their families had passed away, I don't know how they made a living.
The tuition fees he receives as a teacher are probably not enough.
He said he wanted to go, but he needed to go home and discuss it with his parents.
Will he bring his tuition and food rations home every month, or will his parents give up everything they have at home and go to Chijia'ao with him?
After hearing about his family situation, Chi Yu and Chi Qiao both knew that the latter was unlikely!
However, the two sisters still wanted to do him a favor, so they gave him an advance of 500 coins, just like Liu Luyuan, under the pretext of paying tuition for the teacher.
As the weather got hotter, Chi Yu and his friends' return trip wasn't very smooth.
They all knew that the temperature in the prefecture city near the Chu River was slightly lower than in other places.
But unexpectedly, while the daytime high temperature in the prefectural city reached 46 degrees Celsius, other places were approaching 50 degrees Celsius.
They couldn't travel during the day, so they had to choose to travel at night.
Even at night, the lowest temperature is still above 43 or 44 degrees Celsius.
All the way to Fu'an City, except for the post stations along the way, Chi Yu didn't see a single person on the road.
Even at night, no one was seen going out in Fu'an City.
Because it was too hot, we stopped and rested frequently along the way for the sake of the horses.
It took them longer to get to Anping County than it had to get there.
