Today is the second day of the eighth month, and there are still a few days to go before the ninth day of the new year, Zhao Hao asked his father to recuperate on the mountain, and he went down the mountain to prepare a product for the candidates to enter the school, accompanied by Gao Wu and Qiaoqiao.

On the carriage down the mountain, Qiaoqiao and Zhao Hao sat opposite each other, and Zhiyi tilted his head to look at him.

Speaking of which, although the two of them live in a small courtyard, today is the first time in a month that they have faced each other like this.

"Do I have flowers on my face?" Zhao Hao touched his cheek.

"Nope." Qiaoqiao hurriedly shook his head, turned his eyes to the window and said, "You are so strange, you are indifferent to fame and fortune, but you are so concerned about your master's studies." Say you're keen on fame, but you're not doing your job all day......"

"How can I call this a lack of business?" Zhao Hao stretched his waist and sorted out the stack of manuscripts at hand. In the past month, he has also stayed at home, and in order to pass the boring, he has written a lot of things silently. "I'm the hope for the revitalization of the Ming Dynasty."

"Bragging." Qiaoqiao turned his head, fluttered his braided eyelashes, and asked in a crisp voice, "You didn't think about taking the test yourself?" ”

"There's a joke about it." Zhao Hao smiled and said: "There is a person who buys a high-headed sermon in a bookstore, and others ask him what he bought it for?" He said that he would test people. Others laughed and said, 'Your examination is not as good as your father's', and this person thought it was true, so he bought the book back and gave it to his father to read. ”

"Hahaha......" Qiaoqiao was so amused by him that she bent over, kicked Zhao Hao lightly with her toes, and said, "You can arrange Master Zhao, and I'll sue when I turn around." ”

"You just have to sue, anyway, my father's purpose in the examination is just to let me enjoy wealth and nobility." Zhao Hao boasted with a nonchalant face.

"Nonsense." Qiaoqiao didn't believe it. If it is said that who enjoys whose wealth, she thinks that the father and son are almost the same upside down.

The two were talking, and the carriage arrived at the Confucius Temple on the bank of the Qinhuai River.

Approaching the autumn season, the shops on the street are full of all kinds of examination tools, as well as a dazzling array of food.

Zhao Hao pulled Qiaoqiao, walked through the shops one by one, and selected the best workmanship of the examination basket copper cho, the top of the door curtain, the stove candle holder, the candle cut roll bag, etc., as long as it could be seen on the market, he bought four pieces of each.

Coincidentally puzzled, aren't there a total of three candidates at home? Why buy an extra one?

Zhao Hao replied: "Spare parts, just in case." ”

"It's a lot of money." Qiaoqiao is not praised.

After loading the things he bought back into the car, Zhao Hao was about to go home, and Qiaoqiao reminded: "Don't sell the food you eat for the exam?" ”

"We don't have to worry about it, someone must have sent it." Zhao Hao shook his head with a smile, looking like a stinky fart.

~~

Returning to Caijia Lane, which had been lost for a long time, I happened to see Tang Youde's horse-drawn carriage, which had stopped next to Wei Jixian.

"Hey, how does he know that we're back today?" Qiaoqiao was puzzled.

"It's not for nothing that people's business is doing well." Zhao Hao jumped out of the car with a smile, asked Gao Wu to send everything to Wang Wuyang, let the two apprentices sort it out, and then let Qiaoqiao go to the restaurant to say hello to Fang De.

He returned home empty-handed.

Although I didn't come back for a month, the house was still in order, and naturally someone watched the house and someone cleaned it.

Now in Caijia Alley, there are more than fifty people holding Zhao Hao's rice bowl, and almost all the men have been rewarded by him, and these trivial matters do not need his special orders.

Tang Fatzi was sitting in the shade of a tree, drinking tea with taste, and when he saw Zhao Hao pushing the door in, he hurriedly jumped up, and said with a heartfelt smile on his face: "Childe, I am waiting day and night, but I can be regarded as waiting for you back." ”

"Didn't you make people stare at the foot of Mt. Kokura every day?" Zhao Hao sat on his chair.

While pouring him tea, Tang Fatzi smiled and said, "Isn't that afraid that the son will use people?" If it weren't for Gongzi not letting me go up the mountain, Old Tang, I would have been waiting on the mountain. ”

"Blind with your eyes open." Zhao Hao laughed and pierced Tang Fatzi's mind. "I don't think you can sit still."

"Hehe, I can't hide anything from Childe...... Tang Fat Man smiled, nodded and said: "It's strange Childe, in the past month, the price of silk has only fluctuated up and down in three, two, five, neither up nor down." The chambers of commerce couldn't stop it, and many people began to ship. ”

"Those who know how to flee are smart people." Zhao Hao's smile faded and said: "But I'm afraid of more people, and I still can't restrain my greed." ”

"Let Gongzi say it, several chambers of commerce are buying a large number of stocks, indicating that they are still bullish." Tang Youde nodded.

"They can't play with those people." Zhao Hao saw an ant, crawling on the smooth rim of the cup with difficulty, so he gently bounced the ant away and said: "The price can't rise, which means that those people are shipping, and when they almost escape, the detailed rules for opening the sea should be in broad daylight." ”

"Hmm." Tang Youde nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. He watched the price fluctuations of silk strange for a while, lest it rise sharply, and naturally it was difficult to sleep, so he had to see Zhao Hao and listen to his analysis and analysis, so that he could put his heart back in his stomach.

After a pause, he reported again: "By the way, Son, then Liu Yuanwai looked for me several times and asked me why I didn't start the construction for a long time?" ”

"The weather is too hot and no one is working, the promised loom is yellow, and you are in a hurry to have a second child and twist your waist...... Aren't there a lot of reasons? Zhao Hao rolled his eyes and said irresponsibly.

"Childe, I already have six children under my knees...... Tang Youde said embarrassedly, and then said with a wry smile: "I have made up all the reasons that I can make up, but is Liu Yuanwai so easy to deceive?" He had already inquired, and we sold the silk after we changed hands. ”

"I sold mine, what the hell is going on?" Zhao Hao snorted disdainfully: "When the silk is in our hands, we will dispose of it, and it is not that we will not return it to him when the time comes." ”

"But Gongzi doesn't play cards according to the routine, Liu Yuanwai will inevitably panic."

"All I want is to make him uncomfortable." Zhao Hao laughed and said, "Looking at his bear-like appearance, are you angry? ”

"Of course it's relieved." Tang Youde couldn't help but smile and said, "Every time I dry him for an hour, I meet him." It's just that I see that he is getting hairy, and I'm afraid he wants us to return the silk in advance. ”

"It's impossible, black and white, red seal, saying three months is three months. If the lawsuit goes to Beijing, I will not pay him back in advance. Zhao Hao sat up straight and said to Tang Youde: "If you are really fine, go to Xiaocang Mountain to escape the summer, and then ask a senior staff member to help you consult, and come up with a preliminary rectification strategy." ”

"I, I listen to Childe." Tang Youde was trying to avoid Liu Yuanwai, so he naturally agreed: "Tomorrow, I will invite a few garden masters to go over and have a look." ”

"Done." Zhao Hao stood up and said, "That's it, don't bother me for half a month, I have to concentrate on accompanying the exam." ”

"Okay." Tang Youde also stood up, pointed to a bunch of things in the hall and said, "That's the food I prepared for the master, as well as the commonly used medicines, and I don't know which ones are combined, so I brought them all." ”

"I have a heart." Zhao Hao had expected that Tang Youde would not come empty-handed, so he smiled and thanked him and sent him out.

After a while, the two students heard the news and came to see the master for a month, so they naturally missed it very much. Zhao Hao also thought about these two apprentices, and asked them about their preparation for the exam, knowing that the two of them had already made up their minds, so he didn't say anything more. The three of them divided the food sent by Tang Youde, and after selecting the medicines used, Zhao Jin also came back from the yamen.

Seeing Zhao Hao, Zhao Jin wanted to speak and stopped. How good does Zhao Hao have? smiled and said, "Is it that Wei Guogong has been fined?" ”

"Hey, you've been in retreat in the mountains all day, how do you know about this?" Zhao Jin couldn't help laughing and said: "It was for Wu Shilai to impeach him for many lawless things such as his lax godson, and as a result, Wei Guogong was reprimanded by His Majesty and fined him for two months." ”

"It's just a drizzle." Zhao Hao smiled, thinking that in two months, Wei Guogong would be fined for making trouble in Nanjing, and even felt some sympathy, this old man who was breathing at the wrong time.

"But now, his father and son have been honest for a year or two." Zhao Jin also nodded with a smile and said, "There is one more thing, I'll tell you after Qiuqiu." ”

"Hmm." Zhao Hao understood what was going on as soon as he heard it, but Qiu Hao was really not suitable for distraction at the moment.

~~

On the eighth day of the eighth month of August, Zhao Hao and two apprentices took Zhao Shouzheng down the mountain together, and first went to the Eagle Peak Temple to write the head of the scroll and hand in the volume.

This is actually to check the identity in advance to reduce the burden when entering tomorrow.

When they got home, before the sun set, the family had a light and fishy dinner, and Wang Wuyang brought the examination basket prepared for the ancestor and explained the position of the things clearly.

Tomorrow, on the ninth day of the first month, it is the day of going to the battlefield, and everyone does not dare to chat, so they go to bed early after the explanation.
