Far Mountain Black Dog

This is the third time it has fallen into the sea.

Bu Qingjue returned to his hometown helplessly, opened the package wrapped in yellow silk and satin under the pillow, counted it over and over several times, and with the remaining coils on his body, it was barely worth a tael of silver... It seems that the next time is the last chance, If you can't win the exam again, you have to buy a better set of the Four Treasures of the Study and sell calligraphy to survive.

Father, mother, children are not filial!Bu Qingjue wanted to cry without tears, holding the property left by his parents, recalling that he kept his ears to the outside world every day, and only read the books of sages and sages. He began to take the imperial examination at the age of 14. Now he is almost 23 and has never passed the exam. .The first time I went to the provincial capital, I found out that Fenglan, whom I had a crush on in childhood, was married. Now her children can be soy sauce, but I still fail year after year. Could it be that the only son of the Bu family is really not material for studying?

"Qingjue, are you back?" Aunt Zhu from the vegetable market knocked on the wooden door, and Bu Qingjue quickly stuffed the money into the bed: "I'm back, I'm back!"

"How did you do in the exam this time?" Opening the door, Aunt Zhu couldn't wait to ask. Seeing that Bu Qingjue looked down, she changed the topic: "Forget it, the exam is over, let's not talk about it. Come, I picked some fresh ones." Here are the dishes for you, cook something delicious to reward yourself."

The Zhu family and the Bu family used to be neighbors, but they didn’t have much contact. When Bu Qingjue was 12 years old, his parents borrowed money to go out to do business, but they were involved in an accident and never returned. The house of the Bu family was also sold. Bu Qingjue was driven to live in a small wooden house on the edge of the village.Seeing that he was helpless and pitiful, Aunt Zhu felt sorry for him, but because her husband would not allow her to meddle in his own business, she had to bring him some vegetables grown at home from time to time, and left in a hurry.If things go on like this, Bu Qingjue has long regarded her as the closest person, and she also knows that Bu Qingjue will go to the provincial capital every year to rush for the exam, so Bu Qingjue is always ashamed to tell her about falling into the sea.

"Thank you, Aunt Zhu..." Bu Qingjue buried his head and took the basket.

"I'm talking about Qingjue... Have you ever considered finding a wife? You're not too young at this age, so it's time to talk about marriage, right?"

Bu Qingjue shook his head: "I don't even have enough food and clothing to keep warm. How can I make women suffer because of my own selfish desires?"

Aunt Zhu sighed pitifully: "Don't be too pushy, come to me if you can't hold on, what do you want to do in the future, how much money do you need, don't be polite, just ask, I will help if I can!"

Bu Qingjue's nose was sore when he heard the words, and he bowed deeply: "Aunt Zhu's kindness to Bu is unforgettable in this life..."

"You scholars, you are polite when you speak, and it sounds awkward. Then I will go first, lest the family gossip... By the way, I come to feed your dog every day. Don't worry, although it doesn't look very energetic. , but live well."

"Okay, Mrs. Zhu, go slowly..." Wait?what dogBu Qingjue was puzzled—when did I have a dog?
