The next morning, Lin Weizhi's body was still sore and weak, but the fever gradually receded, and Shen Qingshu's frown was finally relaxed. Fearing that she would repeat herself, the shopkeeper would bring another quilt to wrap her up. What is covered tightly is the food, which is also served by people.

Among the servants below, there were also two who were caught with the wind and cold. Shen Qingshu went to see them and they were seriously ill. She couldn't help but let them lie on the bed and have a good rest.

It rained intermittently for two days, and finally cleared up on the third day. The blue sky was as clean as glass, and the autumn sunshine gradually dispelled the haze of the previous two days.

Shen Qingshu first sent someone to look at the condition of the carriage. There were still some important supplies on the carriage, and it might not be easy to prepare them in a small county.

After waiting for a while, the captain of the guard led the people back and saw that he was empty-handed when he got off the horse, Shen Qingshu knew the result in his heart, although he was a little disappointed, he didn't regret it too much.

When I heard the report that the mountain torrents had wiped out the other side, and only a little bit of the roof of the carriage was left to be seen, there was no more disappointment, only rejoicing.

The two servants still had to go to the county town to see a doctor, so there was no room for delay, so they set off on the same day, Shen Qingshu bid farewell to the shopkeeper, thanking him for his help these few days.

Riding a horse to the nearest county town, seeing a doctor and purchasing supplies was delayed for another day, and at noon the next day, he finally arrived at Uncle Shen Qingshu's house.

It is said that it is an uncle, but it is also separated by a layer. Shen Qingshu's grandmother passed away during childbirth when she gave birth to her second daughter. This uncle was born to the later stepmother, and he and the He family are regarded as half-siblings.

His name is He Cheng, and he is quite honest. He has become a rich man with the wealth of his previous generation. Even if he buys land, he dare not touch other businesses. He has been stable for so many years.

When Shen Qingshu got out of the car, he saw that the middle door was wide open, and a group of people greeted him at the door. He couldn't help being a little surprised, and hurried up to salute, "Qingshu greets uncle."

Among them was a short, fat middle-aged man in brocade robes who smiled and helped her up, "I'm fine."

"Nephew, I'm your aunt!" Before exchanging greetings, a middle-aged woman next to her stepped forward in two steps and eagerly grabbed Shen Qingshu's hand.

The woman looked a little old, her face was stained with the wind and frost of the years, and her skin was slightly yellow. She looked at her with eager eyes, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were deeply grinned.

She really doesn't look like He Shi, Shen Qingshu was taken aback for a moment before realizing that this should be her mother's direct younger sister, Xiao He Shi.

He also said, "Auntie is well."

"Hey, okay, it's good to see you. For so many years, your mother didn't say that she would bring you back to have a look. You are so old. We just met each other. Two days ago, I heard that there was a mountain torrent on the road. Really Make me worry, I'm afraid that something will happen to you and you won't be able to come."

Xiao He muttered, holding her hand and refused to let go. She was too enthusiastic, which made Shen Qingshu a little uncomfortable. Although they were blood relatives, they were strangers she met for the first time.

"Okay, okay, let you finish talking alone." In the end, it was her uncle who couldn't see it and broke it apart, and then dragged her to greet other people, including Lin Weizhi, aunt, aunt, uncle, and cousin Cousin, come one by one, what a big family.

After finally seeing the ceremony, Shen Qingshu stood up and said, "I'm a junior, how dare I have to work so many people in my uncle's family to wait for a long time."

He Cheng took her arm and walked in, saying as he walked: "Hey, we ordinary people don't pay attention to it. It's okay if we haven't seen each other for many years. Besides, even though we are relatives, we also know that you passed the exam. In the future, you will be an official. We are the people, so there is nothing wrong with greeting us."

Shen Qingshu didn't see any changes in his heart, so he felt ashamed.

When she sat down in the inner hall, she was supposed to offer a gift, but she couldn't take it out, and all of them were submerged in the torrents with the carriage. Shen Qingshu could only explain the reason, and apologized embarrassedly, "to the extent that she came to the door empty-handed, and still I hope uncle will forgive me. When I go back to the capital, my nephew will make up for it."

"You don't need to be so polite," He Cheng waved his hand, "I don't want this little gift from you, it's a blessing that people are safe."

Xiao He also said: "Yes, people often die on that road, God bless you."

The two of them had no objections, and the others couldn't say anything more, so they all agreed.

Shen Qingshu himself blushed a little, as if he came to eat rice.

He Cheng asked: "Is your mother okay in the capital?"

"It's fine," Shen Qingshu replied respectfully, "I just miss my hometown and my uncles and aunts often."

"I miss her too," He Cheng felt a little sentimental, "Since my sister got married, I have been separated for twenty years, and I don't know her face very clearly. Can we meet again?"

His words were sincere and sincere, without any falsehood, but Shen Qingshu had a good impression of this cheap uncle.

But this problem is really difficult to answer, the two places are separated by thousands of miles, and the status is quite different. It is not convenient for the He family to go to the capital, and when the He family was young, they had to take care of Shen Qingshu personally, so they could not leave home easily. Now that they are old, I have to take care of my mother-in-law and the old Liu, and I am afraid that I can't bear it after a long journey.

However, Shen Qingshu felt selfishly that his feelings were not that deep, and if he really wanted to see someone with all his heart and soul, he would not be able to stop him despite all the difficulties ahead.

"Oh, see my nephew well, what are you talking about, the days are still long! I want you to drag those crooked poems." Seeing that the atmosphere was a little silent, Xiao He came out to smooth things over, her eyes rolled and her eyes shifted to Lin Weizhi "What's wrong with my niece and daughter-in-law? I don't think she looks very good."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Weizhi covered her lips and coughed. She hadn't recovered from her illness yet, her complexion was still a little pale, she was wearing a white dress, and her figure looked like a weak willow Fufeng, which made her look too thin.

Shen Qingshu sat next to her, and immediately raised his eyebrows when he heard the sound, and asked softly, "Is it okay?"

Lin Weizhi couldn't get wind of it, she wanted her to say she was sick and avoid the ceremony at the door, but Lin Weizhi didn't want to and insisted on being with her.

In the past few days since she was ill, Shen Qingshu became very nervous whenever there was a slight disturbance, as if she was a fragile porcelain doll, and she didn't know how to restrain herself in front of her elders at this moment.Lin Weizhi glanced sideways at her helplessly, then faced Xiao He, and replied, "Thank you for your concern, Auntie. It was raining and cold for the past two days, but now it's better, and it's okay."

She was courteous and thoughtful, and she couldn't find any faults. For some reason, when she came in from the door, she always felt that this aunt was looking at her from time to time. Her eyes were very dark, and there seemed to be some vague malice.

"That's good. Look at this handsome man, he has been tortured like this by illness." Xiao He smiled pitifully, looked at Shen Qingshu again, and smiled reproachfully: "Look at your mother, you are married like this Don’t tell us about the important event, I received the news, and I can’t make it in time to watch the ceremony.”

It is true that Mrs. He has no decisiveness in dealing with matters, and he is hesitant about everything, but Mrs. Liu is really too anxious about getting married, and the wedding date is too tight.

The friendship between the two families is all with Mr. Shen, but he has passed away long ago. The old Liu family has been in charge of the He family for many years, and he has never had a good impression of the He family. Except for the New Year, weddings and funerals are just a gift in the name of the He family. , There are not many contacts between the two.

This time Shen Qingshu came over because she was getting older and was about to enter the officialdom, and the He Family President was also her uncle's family.

There are relatives on both sides, and Shen Qingshu is not good at commenting on right and wrong, so he just smiled and said: "The capital city is very far away, I am only a junior, so I really dare not work for the elders to go there."

"You child, you are always so polite." He Cheng stroked his beard, "You are so polite and won the exam before you reach the crown. I am so unworthy, but I can't even pass the exam as a scholar. I am so angry." .”

As he said that, he glared at the young man sitting on his head, "Now your cousin is here, so I don't want to ask you a little bit."

He Yinuo stood up with a wry smile and cupped his hands, "Yes, I'm going to trouble my cousin."

Shen Qingshu hurriedly replied, "Where is my cousin, let's ask each other for advice."

After a while, when the conversation was almost over, Shen Qingshu and the others went down to resettle. Xiao He kept trying to intervene, but couldn't find an entry point.

Out of the main hall, Lin Weizhi couldn't help coughing a few more times. Shen Qingshu stretched out his hand to tighten her collar, took her hand again, and muttered, "I told you to stay in the carriage. The wind blows while riding a horse, and then there are some repetitions, and you refuse to wear a hood, and now you cough again."

Lin Weizhi looked at their intertwined hands, and was stunned for a moment. When did this movement become so natural between them?

Although they are all women, there is no difference between each other, but she is the person she admired before.

She struggled a little, but did not break free. Shen Qingshu held it tightly. Feeling the strength, she turned her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Weizhi lowered her eyes and did not answer.

"No way, you're angry again after talking about you." Shen Qingshu was a little depressed, and gently scratched his temple with his index finger, "Am I right? I don't cherish my body."

After all, it was Shen Qingshu's uncle's family, Lin Weizhi, as her regular wife, was so rude, not to mention, she valued her relatives so much.

It was hard to express these thoughts, Lin Weizhi pursed her lips, turned her head, and lied to her, "I don't want to take medicine."

Shen Qingshu's attention was diverted, and he immediately became serious, "That's okay, you have to drink it, how can you get better if you don't drink the medicine, don't try to escape."

Looking at her fair and beautiful side face, she seemed to be a little thinner, but also a little soft-hearted, he hesitated and said: "At most, I can let you eat two more candied fruit."

Although she is afraid of suffering, does this idiot really think that she is greedy for these two candied fruit? Lin Weizhi thought in his heart, but immediately responded, "Okay, it's a deal."

Shen Qingshu had the illusion that he had been tricked, so he reached out his hand and tapped her forehead helplessly, and said, "You have time to fight wits and courage with me, why don't you get better soon, you don't need to drink any medicine, and you can eat as much candied fruit as you want."

Lin Weizhi didn't speak, but frowned and smiled slyly.

Shen Qingshu secretly counted, how many are these?It's all because she is always soft-hearted, Lin Weizhi frowns in pain and begs, she agrees to give her two more, forget it, I hope it won't affect the efficacy of the medicine too much.

The He family was considered wealthy in the county town, but their wealth was not revealed, nor was it too ostentatious. The house was not big, and they arrived at the guest courtyard within a few steps.

Shen Qingshu took a look around and found that there were only four rooms, which was a bit embarrassing. There were nearly no.

The steward of the He family was also a little embarrassed. Uncle Liu saw it, and quickly leaned into her ear, "Master, after all, it's your uncle's house, so it doesn't matter if you stay for a few days."

Shen Qingshu could only nod helplessly. There were so many people mixed together, and he didn't know how the He family arranged it.

Not long after taking a break, He Yinuo brought a book and came over to ask for advice.

He is the eldest son of He Cheng, so he has high hopes for him, and he also studied for the imperial examination since he was a child.

Shen Qingshu roughly tested him and understood that He Yinuo might have thought too far. He consciously put a lot of energy into the scriptures, but he didn't even memorize the most basic Four Books and Five Classics. Every sentence asked him to continue the next sentence, but he stuttered.

Shen Qingshu shook his head, "Cousin, the County Examination Examination is all about rote memorization, how can you pass if you can't remember?"

"I also remember it, but I used to feel that it was boring, and I forgot to memorize it, and I forgot to memorize it again." He Yinuo said with a bitter face: "Most of them now remember it vaguely, but I can't calm down when I start from the beginning. .”

How can I do that, what I fear most is this kind of half-assed.

Shen Qingshu said: "Cousin, I really can't help you with this, I can at most sort out and explain it for you, you still need to endorse it down-to-earth."

He Yinuo frowned, "Is there no other trick?"

"Really not." Unless she opened the mental power bug, but she couldn't open it for others.

The competition in the imperial examinations was intense, but there were not many people who could read in ancient times. They were enlightened at the age of three and read these dozen or so books.

"Okay, then don't bother my cousin." He Yinuo stood up, forced a smile, "Sometimes, I really envy you geniuses, actually I don't even want to take the exam anymore."

He has already married a wife and had children, but he has not yet done a proper job. Although he will inherit the family property in the future, who wants nothing to happen.

Shen Qingshu was not easy to answer, so she just smiled. She had a short time to be a scholar, and although most of it depended on her mental strength, she could memorize the books fluently afterward. An article, a juren forced out by sea tactics.

He Yinuo is not even willing to endorse, so can he still be willing to engage in question-sea tactics?
