Chapter 268: Entering Beijing to Catch the Exam
It was decided to go to Beijing. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lin Yanchao went to say goodbye one by one, but when he left, he found that the few people who wanted to say goodbye were not there.
His two mentors, Lin Chengyi, were imprisoned in Beijing, Lin Yan was the prefect of Suzhou, and Lin Yin, the mountain chief, had passed away.
So Lin Yanchao went to the academy to resign to Lin Liao, and then went to the Lin Mansion to resign to the old Shangshu Lin Tingji.
Lin Tingji was very happy, and encouraged himself a few words, he is an expert in the exam, not only him, but also his brother, and he also taught two Hanlin sons, so he taught Lin Yanchao some exam experience.
It's the middle of February.
It is the season when the snow melts and spring blooms.
Lin Yanchao took Zhanming and Chen Jichuan to the dock. Zhanming Needless to say, Chen Jichuan is Chen Xinggui's clan, and he made a great effort to help Lin Yanchao punish Yu Ziyou last time.
Lin Yanchao has seen his martial arts, and the kind of people who are idle can't get close, the most powerful thing is the one-handed water kung fu, and in addition, he is used to running on the dock outside, and the people in the three mountains and five mountains have all dealt with him.
Therefore, when going out, Chen Xinggui deliberately asked Lin Yanchao to take Chen Jichuan with him in case of accidents.
With Zhanming and Chen Jichuan protecting the Dharma left and right, the safety on the road has been greatly improved, otherwise Lin Yanchao would not be at ease with a few hundred taels of silver tickets on his side.
Zhanming, Chen Jichuan, Lin Yanchao also hired an innocent porter to carry luggage.
As the saying goes, the car and boat shop should be killed if you are not guilty, and you must be careful everywhere for thousands of miles of travel.
Or Hongtangdu, who left home to study, Lin Yanchao said goodbye to Lin Qianqian and his family at the pier.
Seeing that Lin Yanchao had left him for a year and a half, Lin Qianqian's eyes had always been red.
The two of them had endless love words that night, and to this day, Lin Qianqian still couldn't stop crying.
Lin Yanchao comforted: "This is going to Beijing, whether you are in the Jinshi or not. We'll be able to see each other in a year and a half. ”
Lin Qianqian wiped away his tears, nodded and said: "Remember to come back early, don't care about it, and don't force yourself too much to study, you can get sick like the last township test, and return safely." I'll just see you sooner. ”
Lin Yanchao couldn't help but be moved when he heard this, this is the ancient version that some people care about whether you fly high or not, but some people care about whether you are tired of flying.
"And remember not to pick wildflowers on the side of the road, you are a family person, and although the family has a thousand gold, you are not allowed to spend money indiscriminately." Lin Qianqian added.
Lin Yanchao thought to himself, Qianqian is really still the same.
Lin Yanchao said goodbye to his uncle, third uncle, Lin Yanshou and others. Lin Yanchao said to Lin Yanshou: "Cousin." It's the county test in a few days, and the foolish brother is here to wish you a success. ”
Lin Yanshou said disapprovingly: "It's a small matter, the first few times, but the horse stumbled." You can go with confidence, in a few years, when I win the lift, I will go to the capital to find you, don't worry about the family, everything is supported by me. ”
Lin Yanchao listened to Lin Yanshou's words. I feel that my cousin has really 'grown' a lot. Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "That's good, my cousin will do more filial piety to my grandfather for me." ”
As for the members of the Wenlin Society. I have practiced it a few days ago, and I will not say goodbye today.
Lin Yanchao, Zhanming and Chen Jichuan were about to board the ship, but when they saw the uncle rushing over, they said, "Wait." ”
But I saw the uncle bring a bowl of stewed sand fish and said: "Yanchao, this stewed sand fish in Yixin Building is the most famous, in the past, the uncle has always said that he wants to invite you to eat, but he has never fulfilled it." Now that you're thousands of miles away from home, drink a bowl of fish soup before you leave! ”
Lin Yanchao looked at this bowl of fish soup, couldn't help but be a little moved, and said immediately: "Thank you, uncle." ”
After finishing drinking the fish soup, Lin Yanchao said: "My nephew is here to say goodbye to my uncle." The third uncle. ”
The three uncles all said together: "Take the test well, don't worry about your family." ”
At that moment, Lin Yanchao boarded the boat and waved goodbye to his family on the shore.
The boatman braces the penny, Zhang Fan. The boat went straight up the river, and Lin Yanchao stood on the bow of the boat and looked at the mountains and rivers of his hometown, and finally it was gradually gone.
In the past, it was a month to leave home, but this time I didn't go through the years.
The hometown is far away, and there is a light rain in the sky, and the spring rain is a little wet and cold, which makes Lin Yanchao's heart a little stuffy.
When he returned to the cabin, he felt homesick in his heart, and he missed Lin Qianqian and his grandfather, and didn't want to see the scenery outside the ship.
I don't know how long I slept this sleep, and when I slept at night, Lin Yanchao felt that his eyes were slightly bright, and when he opened his eyes, he realized that it was through the moonlight in the tent.
The dark clouds had long since dispersed, and a bright moon rose into the air, and he lay in the cabin, the moon was scattered on his body, listening to the sound of the waves outside the cabin, and from time to time he could hear heavy footsteps walking on the deck next to the cabin.
At this moment, Lin Yanchao was no longer sleepy, got up in his clothes, and walked to the side of the boat, but saw that the boat had stopped and anchored in the middle of the river, and after the spring rain fell during the day, the water in Fujian rose a lot.
At this moment, the rain disappears and the moon rises, the moonlight shines on the river, the river is flowing in a berth, Lin Yanchao looks at this scene, and his homesickness has decreased a lot.
A boatman passed by, saw Lin Yanchao and said, "The master is up, is he hungry?" Your attendants said that you were asleep, and did not dare to call you. ”
Lin Yanchao touched his stomach and said with a smile: "I'm a little hungry." ”
The boatman said: "Okay, crucian carp noodles, I have already warmed it for you, and I will bring it to you." If you are not at home when you go out, and you are not used to eating, please bear with me. ”
"Where, there is a boatman," Lin Yanchao said as he took a few pennies and stuffed it into the boatman's hand, "The boatman takes it and drinks it." ”
Soon, a large bowl of hot crucian carp noodles was served, and Lin Yanchao returned to the cabin and ate noodles.
This crucian carp noodle is filled with fish sauce, which makes it particularly fishy to outsiders, but for Lin Yanchao, who grew up by the river, the fish sauce is delicious.
A few days later, the ship landed in Pucheng, Jianyang Province. Pucheng is the upper reaches of Fujian water, and it is also the land of rice and grain, there is often a sentence in the folk proverb, Pucheng collects a harvest, and there is rice in Fuzhou.
Grain boats can be seen everywhere along the river, as well as wooden rafts carrying wood ready to go down the river and put them on the provincial capital.
Lin Yanchao's friend Yu Qingzhou is from Pucheng, and he is currently studying at home to prepare for the second hospital exam. Two days after Lin Yanchao came here to his house, he changed his ship and landed on the Xianxia Ancient Road to enter Zhejiang.
There are two main roads out of Fujian, one is the lead mountain road, and the other is the Xianxia ancient road.
The lead mountain road out of Fujian, through Jiangxi, and then to Zhejiang, although far away but flat. But the Xianxia Ancient Road is much more difficult to walk.
Xianxia Ancient Road is the most difficult, is Xianxia Ridge, after Ruan Dacheng descended to the Qing Dynasty, he entered Fujian with the Qing army, in order to invite a good master, regardless of serious illness to climb Xianxia Ridge, and died of exhaustion.
Lin Yanchao also spent several days crossing the Xianxia Ridge, and then followed the ancient road to Quzhou, Zhejiang, and then changed to land to board the ship and continue north. (To be continued.) )
