Chapter 286: Results Announced
During the break, Qin Huiyin grilled fish by the river.
She baked one and wanted to show it to Song Ruize to taste, but she found that Song Ruize was talking to Jiang Qibin and Chen Yong. They all looked serious, and it was unknown what had happened.
Song Ruize looked at her and saw her waving the grilled fish in her hand. He gave Jiang Qibin and Chen Yong a few words and strode towards her.
"Is there any trouble?"
"They met a difficult boss, and when the deal was almost done, they changed their minds and asked me if I wanted to fight for it again. I told them to let it go for now, because it was ours and it wouldn't get away."
"There is no end to business, and there is no end to money. We should take a good rest now." Qin Huiyin handed him the fish, "Try it."
Song Ruize took a bite and praised, "It's delicious."
There were still several fish on the fire. When all the fish were cooked, she called Jiang Qibin and Chen Yong to come and eat. As for the other escorts, they had to fend for themselves.
Two days later, they returned to the provincial capital.
The imperial examination had ended, but the results had not yet been announced.
She returned to the Song residence and asked the housekeeper about Tang Yichen's whereabouts. After learning that Tang Yichen and Xue Weifeng had been living in a temple for the past few days, she rode a horse to the temple where Tang Yichen was temporarily staying.
When Qin Huiyin saw Tang Yichen again, he was copying scriptures. He looked solemn and his eyes were calm, as if he had merged with the scriptures he was copying, and his whole body was glowing.
"Sister Huiyin..." Xue Weifeng's cheerful voice sounded.
Qin Huiyin looked up at the sound and saw Xue Weifeng, who had lost a lot of weight, rushing towards her from the opposite side. Just as he was about to hug her, a hand reached out to stop him and pushed him away.
Song Ruize put his arm around Qin Huiyin's shoulders and pulled her aside, stopping Xue Weifeng from making any moves.
Xue Weifeng didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Sister Huiyin, how have you been these days? Do you have any fun places to recommend? When the list is released, I must have some fun to wash away my nerdish look."
Qin Huiyin laughed: "There are many fun places outside, and there are beautiful scenery everywhere. As long as you are on the list and your family continues to send you money, you can have fun however you want."
"That's right. I can be a free traveler again in a few days." Xue Weifeng said, "But sister Huiyin, it will be inconvenient to go out. You have lost weight."
"I just feel a little uncomfortable with the local climate." Qin Huiyin said, "By the way, Brother Weifeng, why do you and my brother suddenly want to live in the temple?"
"Don't mention it." Xue Weifeng lowered his voice and said, "Your brother is trying to avoid romantic debts, and I am trying to avoid some peace and quiet."
"What do you mean?" Qin Huiyin was confused.
"The prefect's daughter always invites your brother to various poetry gatherings. Let's not talk about the fact that the daughter has a fiancé. Even if she doesn't have a fiancé, it's not appropriate for an unmarried daughter to always invite men out like this. Your brother doesn't want to ruin her reputation, nor does he want to cause trouble for himself, so he hid in the temple, saying that he wanted to listen to the Buddha in peace. As for me, I'm short of money and have no money to spend. If I stay in the provincial capital, I'm afraid I'll become a regular customer of the casino or Wanhua Tower within three days. I'm also trying to save myself."
Tang Yichen put the copied scriptures aside and walked out.
"You just got back?" he asked, "Why have you lost so much weight?"
As he said this, he looked at Song Ruize, his eyes seemed to be saying "how did you take care of her".
Qin Huiyin smiled and said, "Brother took me to many places. We had so much fun that even the horses we rode became thinner, not to mention the people. Brother, do you still want to live here?"
"I want to calm my mind, copy some Buddhist scriptures, and listen to Zen. You go back first, I'll show up on the day the results are announced." Tang Yichen said, "Don't worry about me, I'm the eldest brother, I can't let you, my younger sister, worry about everything."
"Well, we just got back, and we have to take care of the business in the provincial capital. I'll wait for you at the Song residence in the provincial capital."
"good."
In the next few days, Song Ruize stayed with Qin Huiyin all the time. At first, Qin Huiyin thought he really had nothing to do, but when she saw him secretly talking to Jiang Qibin and Chen Yong, she realized that he was pretending to have nothing to do just to accompany her. In fact, there were a lot of things that needed him to deal with, but he had been hiding it from her.
"Brother, if you delay your work for me again, I won't go out with you anymore." Qin Huiyin threatened with a sullen face.
"Those things are not very important, Jiang Qibin and Chen Yong can handle them, but these two people rely on me too much and ask me about everything. Don't be angry, I will handle it." Song Ruize touched her hair. "Wait for me here, I will be back in the afternoon."
"I'll go to the workshop and take charge. That way, someone will be with me. I'm not alone, so you don't have to worry so much. If you're still worried, arrange two more people to protect me."
Song Ruize picked two good players for her.
She was in charge of the overall situation in the workshop and taught them some new products. These new products were arranged by her at the last minute and were not even on the market in the county.
During the few days she waited for good news, the snack shop had more than a dozen varieties of snacks. The peddlers who passed by lined up to buy some to take away. Some peddlers who were supposed to stay for only one day stayed for more than ten days in a row until they could buy some snacks. Therefore, the government also attached great importance to the snack shop.
The day of announcement of results finally arrived.
Tang Yichen and Xue Weifeng rushed back from the temple early in the morning.
Song Ruize had something to do today and did not come to accompany Qin Huiyin. The two men he arranged had been following her closely, which made Tang Yichen a little dissatisfied, thinking that Song Ruize was simply monitoring her. In his opinion, if Song Ruize really cared about her, he could have come to accompany her in person. He didn't come, but arranged two men to watch over her. Isn't this surveillance?
Qin Huiyin understood Song Ruize's concerns. However, that matter was a secret and she didn't want other relatives to know.
"Miss Qin, our boss has arranged a room in the teahouse opposite. From there you can see the location of the list." said the number one subordinate.
"Then let's go to the teahouse and wait!" Qin Huiyin looked around, "There will be more people squeezed in later. If it goes on like this, I'm worried something will happen. The most important thing is that I heard that some people like to catch a son-in-law from the list. If my brother is here and he is caught by others later, I won't be able to snatch him away with my weak arms and legs."
Tang Yichen knew that Qin Huiyin was deliberately trying to make him happy and wanted him to relax.
He looked calm on the surface, but he was actually very nervous inside. Even if he was not injured, he could not guarantee that he could make the list, not to mention that he could only write with his left hand.
