In a tavern in Wangshan City, all the guests had dispersed after noon, and two pretty girls sat opposite each other in the corner of the lobby.

The younger one spoke first, "Do you want something to eat, sir?" She asked.

The older woman on the opposite side shook her head lightly, "I ate in the academy, it's hot, just drink some tea."

The girl called Huhang Baiju and poured a cup for the person opposite, "I didn't expect you to come to the appointment, I just wanted to try it."

The woman on the opposite side slowly opened the lid of the teacup, picked up the tea elegantly and blew away the heat, "If I don't come, I'm afraid you and I will feel bad."

The girl smiled slightly when she heard the words, she really understood, "Thank you, sir, for your timely rescue that day, Yong'er has to repay this kindness." After she finished speaking, she raised the teacup as a respect to the girl.

The woman across from her also smiled at her, "What do you pay for it? You refuse to give me what I want." After she finished speaking, she turned her head away and looked out the window, waiting for the girl's reply.

"I know what Mister wants is Mo Sheng." Yong'er didn't shy away and went back, "I also know that you rescued her that day because you were kind to her, otherwise, with Mister's character, how could you do that for her?" It took a lot of trouble for an irrelevant brothel girl. In fact, you didn't have to save me that day, maybe I was in the dust, but it was beneficial to you. Now that I am free, it is even more impossible to give her to you."

The woman on the opposite side didn't say a word, since she made the move that day, she had already anticipated the result, but that was Shen Junlan, elder, teacher, friend, lover, relative, no matter what her status was, she couldn't escape the need to make a move.

"She is in pain." Yong'er continued, "She sentenced herself. If she can't figure it out, I can't persuade her, but I will pay for what I owe you. It has nothing to do with her, Xu Mosheng, although I don't. I know what I can pay you back, but one day I will pay you back."

"In another season, they will go to Beijing to catch the exam." Shen Junlan still didn't answer Yong'er's words, her thoughts drifted a little far away.

"Will you go with them?" Yong'er asked after seeing that she didn't answer.

"Me?" Shen Junlan turned her head to look at her, "I won't go, as a teacher, I have done my duty, and the rest is her, Xu Mosheng's business, and it has nothing to do with Shen Junlan."

"I will go with her and leave this place." Yong'er expressed her attitude.

"Then please Miss Yong'er take care of them." Shen Junlan also responded to the person opposite.

This woman is always like this, she hides all her words in her heart, she doesn't show her face on the surface, but her heart is turbulent. When the two of them met last time, they said it was neither painful nor itchy, but they clearly couldn't let it go. "How old are you older than me, so do you think such things as kissing sweethearts, vowing to each other, and growing old together are childish and unrealistic?"

Yong'er's expression when talking to him at this moment resembled Shen Junyi very much, and he would question himself like this on weekdays, why should he bear it, why he only dared to fulfill it but did not dare to fight for it, Shen Junlan thought, and seriously replied, "Maybe it is because Young people, you are just braver than me."

"Sometimes I really hope that Mr. Shen can meet a better person to love you instead of Mo Sheng," Yong'er replied. She sympathized with Shen Junlan to some extent. If Mo Sheng fell in love with him, she might not You can't be so calm with her. "Actually, it's just a lonely courage. Since I put all my hopes on her, I will accept everything from her, including her cowardice, her tenderness, and her karma. I bet she won't throw away everything." Put me down, and bet that I am not mistaken."

Shen Junlan took a sip of tea, and she listened to what Yong'er said, "You didn't lose." She turned back quietly, "I sometimes can't tell whether her feelings for me are love or kindness. What's the matter, but she is in love and ends in courtesy, and we can only go here. If you leave Wangshan, you will never have any entanglements with me again. "

She looked into the distance again, and some scenes appeared in her mind, "I will see you someday, at most, when I return to my hometown in the future, I will come to the academy to thank the kindness of my upbringing."

The two stopped talking, and suddenly the atmosphere became a little awkward. Yong'er had thought that this person would either not come to the appointment, or the two would fight to the death, but everything happened as usual, and Shen Junlan seemed calm and calm as if it had nothing to do with it Has.

"If you really feel that you owe me something..." Shen Junlan broke the silence, she paused, "Can you tell me something."

Yong'er looked at her with some doubts.

Shen Junlan lowered her head again, playing with the teacup in her hand, not looking at Yong'er, "What happened after that day when the oiran was full of nights?"

"She didn't tell you?" Yong'er asked back.

"No, I just said that I was drunk. I know how much I drink." She said irrefutably, "I must know what happened to me."

Yong'er frowned. Since Mo Sheng didn't say that he was concerned about her husband's face, "Maybe she didn't want you to know."

"So you come and tell me, you don't have to worry about it."

Yong'er felt that she was in debt, so she had no choice but to tell the whole story, "The glass of wine you drank by mistake that night was the acacia wine that Yuanzi gave me, and then the medicine took effect, and you fell into a coma."

"Acacia wine..." Shen Junlan put the teacup on the table, and she could probably think of some things behind.

"However, the extremely cold spring water can cure the poison, so she took you back to the academy to hangover. Later, I went to see her in the Xu Mansion. When she came back, her clothes were wet and she had a fever. That's all I know." Yong Her son spoke neatly, and she didn't want Shen Junlan to misunderstand anything.

"So it's like this..." Hearing this, Shen Junlan seemed to remember something, but she was not sure, and she was suddenly a little scared, afraid that Mo Sheng knew something that night. "Then I have no doubts. You and I are settled. You don't owe me anything. Since you can't pay that person back to me, please treat her well."

After finishing speaking, Shen Junlan got up to leave and left, "Then did I lose? If you love her a little less than me, I won't lose, but..." With those words in her heart, she rushed towards the academy.

The documents for the scientific examination have been distributed to the academies in various cities. Xu Yuanzhi ordered Xu Mosheng to pick them up in person, firstly to show respect, and secondly to let her go out to get some air. In the poetry book, she wears stars and wears moon, and she talks less on weekdays. Xu Yuanzhi is afraid that he is too strict to discipline her and makes her stupid, and hopes that she can relax.

Xu Mosheng came to the academy to pick up the documents in a low-key manner, greeted Mr. Su, informed him about his recent academic situation, and then left in a hurry, as if he had never been here.

She didn't go back to Xu's mansion, nor did she go to Tongyu's house to look for Yong'er, but ran to Chunze Tower. She had nothing to do with this garden, but Feng Sanniang was still here, which was also her small piece of land. A harbor where you can dock.

"Mother, the paperwork is here, and we are going to leave in autumn." Xu Mosheng put the paperwork on the table and showed it to Sanniang.

Sanniang glanced at her, she couldn't read, but she knew that the booklet full of red stamps meant that her child was leaving. "Are you here to say goodbye?"

"Well, maybe I won't have a chance to go out of the house in the future. I'm nervous about my schoolwork. If I'm distracted, I'm afraid I won't pass the exam." She lowered her head and replied.

"How long will it take?" Sanniang asked.

"At the end of the year, the list will be released after the Spring Festival." She replied tactfully.

"I'm asking after you pass the exam! Don't play around with me." Sanniang blamed.

"Three years, three years of Taixue." Xu Mosheng paused, "After being selected into the palace, I will return to my hometown to see you if I have time off."

"That means I won't see you for at least three years." Sanniang closed her eyes when she heard this, as if she had been stuck in endless waiting all her life. Before, she was waiting for her husband, but now she is waiting for her daughter.

Xu Mosheng understood Sanniang's reluctance, so why didn't she say in her heart, "Mother, if I can stand on my own, I will take you there. Or I can save some salary and return to Wangshan to make a living. No...it won't be gone forever , I assure you, I won’t let you wait.”

Sanniang took out the jade pendant from her bosom, "Return this to you, it belongs to you." Xu Mosheng took it and held it tightly in his hand. "Is Yong'er going with you?"

"I want to take her away from here. I'm worried about her..." Xu Mosheng replied with a heavy heart, "But what will happen after entering Beijing, I don't have any plans in mind, and I don't know if she is willing to come with me at this time." She Said the uneasiness in my heart.

"The redemption has already wiped out all the money on your body. Apart from playing the piano and singing, you two have no other means of earning a living. She is not here. Mother is telling you the truth. Since the two of you have chosen to be together, you will have to compete with each other." It's hard work with a man. When you encounter problems, you have to learn to share with each other, and you don't have to carry them yourself." San Niang urged.

"Mother, I know."

"Also, you don't have to worry about me. I have a good time with your Aunt Rong. You just need to report that you are safe in the future. I don't count on you. It is enough to have her for the rest of your life." Sanniang is an explanation to the child She knew in her heart that she had not fulfilled the responsibility of raising Mo Sheng, but this child was filial, she was used to it and did not want to be a burden to the younger generation.

"Mom, I know what you need. We will be reunited as a family." She comforted.

The mother and daughter chatted about the past again. Xu Mosheng looked around the small room. There have been too many stories in this Chunze building, and these past events of hers are insignificant. The more heart-warmingly she chats with Sanniang at this moment, the more she wants to The more I feel reluctant.

"Okay, it's getting late, you should go back earlier." Sanniang closed the chatterbox.

"Mom, chase me away." Mo Sheng acted coquettishly.

Sanniang smiled and waved her hands, "Go, go, I'm not used to your sensational ways."

Although Mo Sheng was reluctant, but seeing that it was getting late, he got up and said goodbye.

"By the way, Mo Sheng, where's your Mr. Shen?" Sanniang asked after thinking of something. She had seen many people, and she knew Shen Junlan's feelings for Mo Sheng at a glance.

"Sir?" She looked at Sanniang suspiciously.

"Is she going with you?"

Mo Sheng shook his head and did not speak.

"She...does she have feelings for you?" Sanniang asked.

Mo Sheng turned around and walked out the door, "There is no fate for love".

Sanniang sighed helplessly when she heard the desperate answer.
