Although it was cold and covered with cotton, from Su Ziji's point of view, some heat could still be seen on the meatloaf, and the chatter of the neighbors who took the meatloaf also reached the ears.

"Who is this?"

"The Hu family sent it to the neighbors, and I heard that the wife of the second master of the Hu family, who was married to an official in other places, died in office, leaving an orphan daughter and a widow, without the support of the backbone, afraid of being watched, and moved to join the uncle......"

"Then why did you defect to the boss of the Hu family and not to your mother's family?"

"Who knows...... Maybe the chaste woman doesn't want to remarry, and the boss of the Hu family is just a showman, and he doesn't have such a strong power as the second room, and he can't bully the two of them, and although he took refuge in the uncle, he actually bought the house next door and opened it, but he didn't live together, but he just had a care, and the boss of the Hu family went to the countryside to buy land yesterday, and happened to avoid this meeting. ”

"Hehe, the daughter-in-law is a famous Hedong lion roar, and Boss Hu has a strong desire to survive......"

"It's no wonder that now the meatloaf is distributed, the mother and daughter are not supported by a man, and it is inconvenient to invite neighbors to eat and drink, and the distribution of meatloaf can be regarded as a housewarming. ”

Gossip news spreads faster than flying.

Su Ziji smiled dumbly, and when he saw Ye Weihan speeding up his pace and following him, he saw a team of carriages passing by.

Not far from the Hu family, among the guards and maids, a mother and daughter came down, not only the daughter-in-law of the Hu family went out to greet them, but a group of people gathered on the street early to watch the excitement, their eyes were rooted, and they didn't have the life to look at the mother and daughter, as if they could take advantage.

And February is still winter, wearing thick clothes, I really can't see it, besides, the mother and daughter are veiled, nodding to the neighbors, and then entering the Hu house, and the door is immediately closed.

Although outsiders can't see the appearance of Mrs. Guan and Miss clearly, the daughter-in-law of the Hu family's big house has a very ugly face, which makes people guess a thing or two, and this excitement is worth the ticket price.

After the excitement was dispersed, the door was closed, and the daughter-in-law of the Hu family's big house took a look, and saw that the young son had betrayed him, and he was very enthusiastic about the orphan daughter and widow, she touched her smooth cheeks that were no longer in the past, and hated to spit: "Call Da Lang back!

"Madam, how much do you want to bite?" A crisp voice sounded behind the daughter-in-law of the big house, making her tremble, inexplicably a little creepy, and when she looked back, she saw a pair of foxy eyes.

"The mother and daughter just now seem to be a little familiar. Unable to see the situation inside, Su Ziji, who retracted his gaze, frowned and sighed, and heard a snort behind him, and looked back, it was Ye Buregret.

She shouted: "Don't go quickly, Dad is far away, what to see!"

Yes, the irritable little girl got angry again, and hurriedly followed, at this time the Spring Festival had passed, the shops were open, and the pedestrians were bustling.

When he arrived at the door of a house, Ye Weihan stopped, and Su Ziji stepped forward to knock on the door, taking advantage of the waiting time to observe.

"Zeng Lingchu, Zeng Xiucai?"

Zeng Lingchu's father, when he was a fellow acquaintance, this house has high walls and walls, which is not shabby, but there are no doormen, the lanterns are a little old, and the snow in front of the steps has not been swept away, not like the atmosphere of the house of Tongzhi.

The one who opened the door was a young woman, the charm was still there, but her face was tired, and when she opened the door, Su Ziji saw that her fingers were dry and cracked, and she couldn't help but think that Ye Buregret's little hands also had chilblains.

In ancient real life, there was no beauty through the talented and beautiful women in the novel, beauties also had to work, scholars would also accept little wives, and when the family was not good, they couldn't afford to hire long-term workers, and the housewife also had to do some work.

However, people in this era are accustomed to it, and Ye Weihan's attitude is very low: "Mrs. Zeng is fine, come down to pick up the manuscript." ”

"Please come in, my grandson is in the study. Mrs. Zeng moved inside.

The two followed in, and inside was a middle-aged scribe drinking tea, and when he saw the visitor, he got up: "Brother Ye, please take a seat, the manuscript you want has been written." ”

The voice is not high, it seems peaceful, but the middle breath is a little insufficient, and there is a slight panting, with a tired face on his face, Su Ziji is very familiar with this kind of exhaustion, the complexion of staying up late, glanced at the manuscript, written with a brush, there are not many words written in one piece, it looks like a lot of stacks, there may not be 10,000 words.

Ye Weihan smiled: "Everyone, it's hard work, I should read it." ”

As he spoke, he took out an article and read it quickly, and he couldn't help but shoot the case: "Amazing, it is worthy of everyone Zeng." ”

Zeng Lingchu smiled and didn't react more.

Ye Weihan groaned, calculated, and said, "Leave it to me, my store will give thirty percent of the royalties, how about it?"

"That's fine!"

Zeng Lingchu's attitude was still indifferent, but he didn't object, and nodded in agreement.

Su Ziji didn't speak, so he stepped forward to take the draft, Ye Weihan gave it with a smile, and pointed casually: "This is my nephew Su Ziji, maybe you have also heard of it, the son of the Su family, now you want to catch the boy test, you can give a guarantee." ”

"Oh?"

Zeng Lingchu's face was tired, he glanced at Su Ziji casually, coughed lightly, and nodded, which was allowed.

Not only did the five people in the county test protect each other's knots, but there was at least one of them, Zeng Lingchu had done a lot of this, and he had indeed heard of Su Ziji, so he immediately waved a pen to keep a knot.

"You're bothered. Ye Weihan took out a piece of broken silver from his arms, although it was cut with clippers, but the bottom was white and deep, and the silver was nine or eight colors - this is the rule.

It is said that there are only 20 students in the county, and there are 1,200 people in the examination.

Su Ziji stopped reaching into his arms, raised his eyes and looked at Ye Weihan, the Ye family was already in great difficulty, but they still prepared the bond silver silently.

"Now take out the money, Ye Weihan must ask, where did the money come from. ”

"Could it be that you are talking about murder and robbery?"

"Anyway, it's not too late to repay the child when you win the child, anyway, there are already a lot of favors owed. ”

took the tie at the moment and said goodbye with Ye Weihan.

"Boss Ye brought his nephew to see you, why do you look indifferent?" Mrs. Zeng looked at the two people who went out and asked, "Isn't your friendship very good?"

"The friendship is good, and the royalties given are very kind, but the Ye family's shop is too small. Zeng Lingchu sighed melancholy: "My family is in this county, there is only one real estate, the land is only 80 acres, and the annual income of other silver rents is only 30 taels of silver. ”

"I can't help it, it's no problem to help, I can't give the next book to the Ye family. As he spoke, Zeng Lingchu shook his head and sighed.

Going out, the snow was a little heavy, and there were fewer pedestrians on the road, Su Ziji looked at Ye Weihan's back and suddenly shouted: "Uncle Ye?"

"What's wrong?" Ye Weihan looked back in surprise.

“...... I will definitely take the county exam. Su Ziji's words came to his mouth, but what he said was this.
