Lin Shiyu and Liu's group failed again.
Lin Boyu felt that he had already passed the imperial examination, so he had to continue taking the exam with full force.
It just so happened that next year was the triennial imperial examination, and he wanted to give it a try.
If we leave from this county now, we still have plenty of time. If we meet up with my parents first and then leave, we will be very rushed.
While Lin Boyu was still in the capital saying goodbye to his bedmate, Lin Shiyu went to the clinic and told the doctor that she was going to the capital.
Some time ago, she said she was going to Lin Anru's place. The doctor here said that she had a senior brother there, and asked her to find the doctor's senior brother if she needed any help.
Now that I have decided not to go, I must at least let them know.
"Go to the capital?" The doctor said it was okay after hearing her words, "I have a senior brother in the capital too, it's the same if I give the letter to him.
You brothers and sisters are unfamiliar with the place, so you can go to my senior brother's place first and then find a suitable place to stay."
After all, the brother and sister have no relatives or friends in the capital, so he can ask his senior brother to take care of them, which can be regarded as repaying the favor he owes to Lin Shiyu.
The love of teaching will benefit you for a lifetime.
Lin Shiyu thanked him repeatedly before leaving the clinic.
After returning to the inn, she wrote two letters.
One letter was for Chang Lin to take back to the Lin family. The content of the letter was to inform the Lin family that Lin Boyu had passed the imperial examination and was going to the capital to continue taking the exam, so they didn't have to worry.
At the end of the letter, she also wrote the address in the capital where letters could be received, and the address of the doctor's senior brother's clinic.
The second letter was to Lin Anru and Liu, and the content was similar to the one written back home.
Chang Lin took the letter and gave most of the money he had to the brother and sister, then went home with his servants.
"Let's go too!"
"good."
.......
Chang Lin did not return home first, but went to his father-in-law and mother-in-law's house first to inform the two elders of the Lin family about the situation of Lin Boyu and his sister.
When the two elders of the Lin family learned that Lin Boyu had passed the imperial examination, they were so happy that they didn't even care about their son-in-law.
He hurried to find the village chief and told him that smoke was coming out of the Lin family's ancestral tomb again.
Chang Lin laughed, looked at the two elders going away and said to the servant beside him: "Go home!"
Everyone in the Chang family was waiting for Chang Lin to come back.
"I didn't pass the exam." This is what Chang Lin said when he saw his family for the first time.
The Chang family paused, and after watching for a moment and seeing that Chang Lin didn't seem to be crying, they gathered around him in twos and threes and said, "If you don't pass, we can try again next time..."
......
"Why, is your son coming?"
When the lady in gorgeous clothes saw Liu holding the letter, she couldn't help but ask urgently.
At first, she looked down on Lin Anru, who came from a farming family, so she also disliked Liu, Lin Anru's wife.
Later, she was touched by Lin Anru's words "Too many children brings suffering to a mother", so she put aside her prejudice and interacted with Liu, and gradually the two became familiar with each other.
After getting to know each other, she learned that Liu's son had obtained the qualification of a Tongsheng.
She was quite surprised at the time. After all, to have obtained the qualification of Tongsheng at the age of thirteen or fourteen was quite impressive even in a large family, let alone for someone who was born in a farming family.
Then, when he continued to have a deeper relationship with Liu, Liu received a letter saying that his son had passed the examination to become a scholar, and the original plan to come here was shelved. The child wanted to try to continue to take the exam.
Ever since she knew that Lin Boyu passed the imperial examination, she has kept him in mind.
He is so promising at such a young age, he is the perfect choice for a son-in-law!
Liu sighed and shook her head.
The lady was extremely disappointed. "It's really not easy to see your son. Can you tell me what delayed him this time?"
Liu continued to sigh, helplessly saying, "What else could it be! That kid is now a juren, and he said he wants to go to the capital to take the imperial examination, so he won't come yet. He's not young anymore, but he has big ideas. He doesn't even consider whether his sister can handle it..."
The lady could no longer hear what Liu was saying.
Juren!
How old is that child?
Thirteen years old.
Just passed the imperial examination!!!
The lady's heart was in turmoil, and her eyes lit up as she looked at Liu who was still complaining.
She really wants to be this relative, but what should she do?
......
The journey to the capital was long, and the students were afraid of accidents on the way that would delay the exam, so they hardly stopped to rest along the way.
This is very hard for Lin Shiyu, who is in poor health.
Although she has been taking care of her body for a long time and her physical fitness is many times better than before, it is still far behind that of normal people.
Lin Boyu felt so distressed when he saw that his sister's face was always pale or blue.
He wanted everyone to stop and rest, but no one agreed.
"It's almost time, just bear with it for two more days." Lin Shiyu also tried to persuade him.
It was unsafe to travel alone these days, and they couldn't abandon the group and rest on their own. The others also couldn't accommodate them.
Because she was not feeling well along the way, Lin Boyu took care of her everywhere, which caused dissatisfaction among many people, especially the women in the family.
Maybe it's because of jealousy.
"Can you hold on? Don't force yourself. We'll be there in two days anyway. If you fall behind, you fall behind." Lin Boyu still wanted to stay and rest.
Lin Shiyu shook her head: "Let's keep going!"
She couldn't get a good rest in these rural places.
The most important thing is that there are no medicinal herbs here to nourish her body.
A doctor cannot treat himself, but she still knows her own condition. If she doesn't take medicine, she won't last much longer.
Two days later they arrived in the capital.
As soon as they entered the city gate, Lin Shiyu and his group immediately left the team and headed straight for the clinic address given by the doctor in the city.
When the people in the clinic saw the group of people rushing in, they thought they were urgent patients who needed emergency treatment.
Unexpectedly, the man ran straight to the pharmacy without even looking at it.
A series of medicine names came out of the mouth of a little girl.
"...Please help me cook it, thank you..."
Before she could finish her words, she fainted.
The apprentice who was already confused when picking up medicine was shocked to see her fall down. When he came to his senses, he immediately shouted for a doctor.
"What medicine did she just ask for?"
Ignoring Lin Boyu's mumbling, the doctor directly asked the apprentice who was picking up medicine.
The apprentice who picked up medicine did not dare to hide it and told Lin Shiyu the herbs and dosages that she had just read out.
The doctor's eyes lit up as he listened: "Make the medicine according to the prescription she gave."
After giving his apprentice instructions, he turned to Lin Boyu and said, "Carry her into the backyard to rest first. She is weak to begin with, and now she has fainted from exhaustion. She will wake up after she has rested."
Lin Boyu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, thanked the doctor and carried her to the backyard.
