Xiao Jie tugged at the corner of her clothes with her small hands, her eyelashes as beautiful as butterfly wings trembled, and she was a little nervous, fearing that Zhang Xiulin would ask more questions.
Fortunately, after waiting for a while, Zhang Xiulin did not ask any further questions, and Xiao Jie couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He raised his head again, looked at the name in the center with bright eyes, and felt happy in his heart.
Zhang Xiulin passed the county examination and had to take the prefectural examination a month later. If she passed the prefectural examination, Sister Lin would become a student.
The wet nurse said that when Sister Lin became a student, she would go to Sister Lin's house to propose marriage on her own behalf.
Hehehe, so happy.
Zhang Xiulin looked at the little guy who suddenly laughed foolishly and couldn't help rubbing his head.
The news that Zhang Xiulin passed the county exam spread quickly.
People familiar with the Zhao family congratulated them one after another. Zhao Chuchu, Zhang Xiuyuan and others were very happy and prepared a whole table of delicious dishes and meat that night.
The county examination has ended, and there is still one month before the provincial examination.
Renhe County belongs to Tangzhou Prefecture, and the provincial examination needs to be held in Tangzhou Prefecture. Zhao Chuchu and Zhang Xiuyuan decided that they would accompany her there.
After all, no matter how precocious Zhang Xiulin was, she was still less than ten years old. Tangzhou Prefecture was very big, and not only her, but even Zhao Chuchu and Zhang Xiulin had never been there. They were unfamiliar with the place, and they would not feel at ease if she did not go with them.
This time, all five students who took the county exam with Li Xiucai passed. As the provincial exam was approaching, Li Xiucai did not indulge them but gave them a training session. Within a month, Zhang Xiulin would live in a house in the county town.
…
"The daughter of my brother's grandfather's son works as a constable in the county government office. I heard something strange happened in the county government jail yesterday."
"I heard that several prisoners in the cell died of sudden illness at the same time."
"It's so weird, what kind of disease is it?"
"I don't think it's a disease. Maybe someone is seeking revenge."
"I heard those people were arrested for forcing others to do something."
"What? They actually did this kind of thing? They really deserve to die." The man said, and spat loudly.
Although they also go to brothels to have fun on weekdays, they have paid for it and it is consensual. They despise such things that force others.
Zhao's pastry shop was crowded with people as usual. Bored customers gathered in groups of three or four to chat, and some of them talked about the bizarre incident in the yamen prison cell.
Liang'er overheard it inadvertently, and the more she listened to them, the more familiar the description seemed to her.
He had a vague guess in his mind, and turned his head to look in Qing'er's direction. Sure enough, he saw Qing'er's unnatural expression.
It’s true!
Those people were the ones who forced Brother Qing last time and were eventually arrested by the county magistrate and imprisoned for decades.
But why did he die suddenly?
No matter what, Liang'er only felt a sense of pleasure in her heart. Such a scum should have died long ago.
Liang'er wanted to say something to Qing'er, but after thinking about it, she swallowed it back.
After that incident, Brother Qing fell seriously ill and his life was hanging by a thread. Later, after he recovered from the illness, Brother Qing's mood was obviously better, and no one mentioned the incident again.
Now, let’s not talk about it anymore.
Now, those people have received their due.
At noon, the pastry shop had an hour's break. Qing'er had nothing to do, so she went outside to get food for everyone.
He was holding the freshly prepared meal and had just taken two steps when he was stopped by someone.
In front of me was a young woman wearing a crescent-white brocade robe. She had a noble temperament, a handsome face, and beautiful peach blossom eyes. She seemed ruthless yet affectionate, looking like a romantic and noble lady.
