Cannon Fodder [Quick Transmigration]

The two of them were walking towards the small courtyard of the inn in a carriage. When they passed a tea house on the way, Wu Bai asked the coachman to stop the carriage.

He invited Xiao Zimo: "Young Master Xiao, may I invite you in for a cup of tea?"

Hearing Wu Bai's words, if Xiao Zimo didn't agree, he nodded immediately.

So the two of them entered the teahouse, went up to the second floor, and asked for a private room.

After Xiaoer brought in the tea and withdrew, Wu Bai sat on the chair opposite to Xiao Zimo, looked down from the window, and listened to the storyteller telling a story, and said casually: "Speaking of which, I'll be with you." Mr. Xiao is also considered destined, but he has not formally introduced himself, and Mr. Xiao helped me so much today, I am really sorry."

Wu Bai paused, and then said: "My name is Wu Bai, I live in Xingfeng Village, Nanping Town, Qinghuai County, I am 15 years old, and I am not married yet."

Hearing Wu Bai's self-introduction, Xiao Zimo's heart felt hot. He couldn't help guessing whether the other party was giving some hints, but when he carefully observed the other party's expression, he found that the other party's expression was natural, as if he didn't know what he said just now meant something. How shocking is it.

Xiao Zimo smiled in his heart, and then introduced himself: "Xiao Zimo is from the capital, his parents are still alive, and he has many brothers."

"Oh? Mr. Xiao didn't introduce whether he is married or not. Could it be that he has already married, so why don't you say more?" Seeing that Xiao Zimo didn't tell his marriage status as he wished, Wu Bai froze in his heart, holding the cup Unconsciously, he tightened his hand secretly, and decided to ask directly.

He decided that if the other party really had a family in this life, even if the other party was his husband in the previous life, then he would never pester the other party.

When Xiao Zimo heard that the other party suspected that he had a family, he quickly put aside the relationship and said, "No, I'm not married, it's just..."

"Just what?" Wu Bai loosened his teacup and asked.

"It's just that the elders in the family showed me a family and are urging me to go back and get married." Xiao Zimo dared not look at Wu Bai's eyes.

He felt that he was too despicable, even though his family had already arranged a marriage for him, yet he hooked up with other little brothers here.

But he quickly explained: "Brother Bai, you believe me, that's really not my intention, I don't want to marry the other party, that's why I went against their ideas and came to Lizhou Mansion, but, I think This is the fate between the two of us, and now the person I want to marry is you."

Wu Bai's expression softened, and he asked, "Isn't your elders willing to let you marry me?"

"Don't worry, I will take care of these things and never let you suffer any grievances." Xiao Zimo promised.

Next, the two confirmed each other's intentions, and after talking for a while, Xiao Zimo reluctantly sent Wu Bai back.

When Wu Bai returned to the small courtyard in the carriage, there were many people in the courtyard. They all saw them. After the carriage left, most of the people in the courtyard gathered around, wanting to find out who sent Wu Bai back. , the Wu family father and son are naturally among them.

But Wu Bai didn't want to tell outsiders about his affairs, so he said to Wu's father and the others: "Father, second brother, come with me, I have something to say to you alone." Walk around the room.

The Wu family father and son looked at each other and followed.

The other people in the yard were not without winks. Wu Bai made it clear that he didn't want to tell them, so they would still join in. Isn't that just asking for fun, so they dispersed again. After all, Wu Bai's matter is important to them. It doesn't matter at all, the most important thing now is this government test.

After Wu's father and Wu Kang'an entered the room, Wu Bai immediately closed the door, and then took out the 60 taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Wu's father.

Father Wu looked at the money in his hand, and was a little frightened, as if what he was holding was not money, but some hot potato. He asked nervously, "Brother Bai, where did you get the money?"

Wu Kang'an also looked at Wu Bai nervously.

Wu Bai hurriedly explained: "Father, second brother, don't be nervous. I bought this money in a normal way. Well, it's the jewelry drawing you saw me draw yesterday, and I sold it."

"Didn't you just draw it for fun? How can you still sell it for money?" Father Wu said, "Don't lie to me!"

Wu Kang'an knew that the jewelry blueprint could be sold, but he didn't think he could sell so much money, so he asked, "Where did you sell it?"

"It's the jade shop we went to that day, and his house is also selling all kinds of jewelry." Wu Bai said honestly.

"Jade shop?" Wu Kang'an muttered these words for a while, then suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked eagerly: "Is the man who brought you back today the man named Xiao Zimo?"

Although he was asking a question, his tone was affirmative.

Wu Bai saw that he had already guessed it, so he didn't hide it anymore, and honestly admitted: "Yes!"

"Master Xiao? Why did he send you back?" Father Wu was a little confused.

"Why else, he must have taken a fancy to our little brother." Wu Kang'an said helplessly.

Father Wu felt a little unbelievable: "No way? Then Mr. Xiao is from a wealthy family at first glance, how could he fall in love with our brother Bai?" He is not blind!

Wu Bai: "..." Dad, am I not your favorite little brother?

I thought Father Wu's words were the most shocking, but I didn't expect Second Brother Wu to answer: "Of course I don't really like Brother Bai, I guess they think Brother Bai is too simple and stupid, and want to Come and cheat yourself, wait until Brother Bai is captured by him, and then run away."

"That Mr. Xiao doesn't look like that kind of person!" Father Wu sighed.

"Yes, yes, yes, I can guarantee that Xiao Zimo is definitely not that kind of person." Wu Bai assured.

"Look, Brother Bai has only met that Xiao Zimo twice, and he trusts him so much. I think he is completely bewitched by that Xiao Zimo now. Those masters are used to these tricks, daddy , next you have to keep an eye on Brother Bai, and you can't let him meet that Xiao Zimo again. If the other party cheats Brother Bai to do something wrong, how will you explain to your mother and father? "Wu Kangan said anxiously.

Because he himself had to prepare for the scientific examination, he left the matter of staring at Brother Bai to Father Wu.

Wu's father also felt that what his second son was worried about really had to be guarded against, so he agreed.

It was precisely because of this that Wu Bai was unable to meet Xiao Zimo alone until after the examination in Wu Kang'an's mansion.

Although he knew that Xiao Zimo would definitely not hurt him, Father Wu and the others didn't believe it, and Father Wu and the others were also thinking of him, so Wu Bai didn't have any dissatisfaction with this, because he firmly believed that even if the two of them met for a while, Not face to face, but will be together in the end.

No, this day, when he was waiting for the government examination results to be posted on the second floor of the inn with the Wu family and his son, he received a letter.

The letter was written to him by Xiao Zimo. Xiao Zimo said that he had returned to Beijing because his father was ill and he had to go back to see him, so he had no time to say goodbye to Wu Bai, so he only left a letter for him. Xiao Zimo also said in the letter that after he returned, he would definitely settle the marriage that his parents had agreed upon for him, and let Wu Bai wait for him.

Wu Bai believed Xiao Zimo's words, he believed that the other party would settle everything and marry him.

Wu Kang'an on the side saw his younger brother smiling at the letter paper, he felt a little uncomfortable, he regretted bringing his younger brother to Fucheng, his little white rabbit was about to be abducted by the big bad wolf.

Wu's father lay on the window, stretched his neck and looked downstairs, hoping to see the people who announced the good news as soon as possible to enter the inn.

The results of the government examination are usually posted when noon arrives, because it is not yet noon, so Father Wu is looking forward to it in vain.

Afterwards, the three of them did not return to the small courtyard, they ordered some food in the inn as a rare luxury, and continued to wait for the results to be posted.

Just after noon, the results of the government examination were posted, and the people in Fucheng exploded, and everyone began to discuss who had passed the exam this time.

The private rooms of major restaurants and inns were also overcrowded, and Wu Bai and the others could still hear the sound of discussions coming from the private rooms next door.

"I guess that Han Feiyu must be on the list."

"And that Wei Cheng, I guess he should be No.1 in this government test."

"No, no, No. 1 this time should be Wu Xingwen. He became famous at a young age. He was admitted to Tongsheng when he was eight years old. Now he is ten years old. His wife said that with his knowledge, he can pass the exam. , Now it’s not easy to test a scholar No. 1.”

"No, the case should be Wei Cheng. That Wei Cheng got advice from the elder of the Hanlin Academy who came back to his hometown from the capital to retire. He was admitted to Jinshi. Even if Wu Xingwen became famous at a young age, he was too young. Without the guidance of a famous teacher, it is possible to say that he is the top three in the government examination, but who made him meet Wei Cheng?"

"Hahaha, your analysis makes sense, brothers."

"Look downstairs, someone who announces the good news has come in. I don't know which brother present is lucky enough to be selected. You must invite this meal!"

"Sheng Zijin, Qinghe Village, Muyuan County, who is Sheng Zijin?" A burst of shouts came from downstairs of the inn.

"Here, here." Sheng Zijin hurriedly responded.

"Congratulations, brother Sheng..." A group of people surrounded the smug Sheng Zijin and patted rainbow farts.

"Look, there are people coming downstairs again."

"This time it should be Brother Tang!"

"It really is Brother Tang, congratulations!"

"It should be Brother Li's turn next, you are the most knowledgeable one here, congratulations in advance, little brother."

"Where is it, hahaha..."

"It's really Brother Li. I must have opened my mouth today. I even got it right twice."

"Hey, look quickly, another person who announces good news has entered the inn. I don't know who it is, but he is ranked ahead of Brother Li."

Because the roll call of the government examination is generally sung from the bottom No. 1 to the front, the ranking of the people who receive the good news is the higher the ranking.

A few people were wondering, when they heard the person downstairs calling out: "Who is Wu Kang'an, Xingfeng Village, Qinghuai County?"
