Son

A few days later, the results of the township examination were announced.

Wang Ziqian locked himself in the room, and Ren Wangshan refused to open the door no matter how much he knocked.

Wang suddenly said: "Open the door, how I usually teach you, show a manly spirit."

Wang Ziqian was silent for a while, and said, "Sister, I'm not afraid of failing the exam, I just don't want to hear people outside talking."

Wang suddenly paused, "Why?"

Wang Ziqian murmured: "They said, I can be recommended by my sister... my sister is looking for a wife..."

Wang Shan was silent for a long time.

Wang Ziqian continued: "Aunt Wang said that brother Linqing left because of anger. Everyone said that the master doesn't want him anymore, and wants to be with my sister..."

"What about you?" Wang Shan asked, "Do you believe what they say?"

Wang Ziqian lowered his head against the door and said after a long time, "Sister, is what they said true?"

"You open the door, my sister has something to tell you."

Wang Ziqian hesitated and opened the door.

Wang Shan's eyes were red, he knelt down and held Wang Ziqian's arm with a very serious expression, "Ziqian, my father and mother passed away early, and there are only two of us left at home. If you believe me, those words are false, if you don't believe me , It’s useless for me to say anything.”

Wang Ziqian looked at her moist but firm eyes, and finally threw himself into her arms, "Sister..."

Wang Shan felt bitter in his heart.

She's not innocent, but she's not guilty either.When Boya met Ziqi, how could she not be emotional, but she knew that there were some things she could not touch, even though she had a charming dream in her heart, she restrained herself from taking that step.

But even so, I still vented my mind.Going to cook for Shen Xu was out of gratitude, but let others make up rumors that were [-]% true and [-]% false, making things so troublesome that she couldn't avoid it even though she was careful.

She hugged Wang Ziqian tightly. At this moment, only the body temperature of this close relative can relieve the coldness in her heart.

After a long time, Wang Shan said softly, "Ziqian, those words are false. They were false in the past, they are false now, and they will never come true in the future."

Wang Ziqian looked at her in confusion, and reached out to wipe the tears on her face.

Wang Shan couldn't bear it anymore, buried his head on Wang Ziqian's neck, trembling silently.

In the afternoon, there was a sudden sound of gongs and drums in the peaceful village. Curious children ran out to wait and see. I saw a woman leading a few people from the music class into the entrance of the village in a lively manner. Went to Wang's house.

"Congratulations, young master, congratulations, young master!" The woman shouted into the courtyard.

Hearing the sound, Wang Yanran pushed the door out, and saw that his yard was already surrounded by villagers watching the excitement, and even the music troupe played joyful tunes non-stop. piled into flowers.

"what's up?"

"Congratulations young master, young master Zhang wants me to come over to congratulate you, young master is a candidate!"

As soon as the words came out, the crowd of onlookers was in an uproar immediately, the gongs and drums were played more vigorously, and the surroundings were buzzing for a while, Wang Shan was stunned for a long time before he realized what the mother-in-law said.

"Young Master, Young Master, Young Master Zhang wants me to come over to congratulate you, you have been selected!" The old lady shouted repeatedly.

Wang Shan hurriedly turned around, "Ziqian, Ziqian!"

Wang Ziqian came out rubbing his slightly swollen eyes. He had just cried with his sister in the morning, and had been sleeping since lunch. At this moment, he was woken up by the outside, and looked blankly at the people in the yard, not knowing what happened.

The mother-in-law's face was full of smiles, "Young master, congratulations, you have been selected! It's better to be Xie Yuan!"

There was another uproar in the surrounding village. A person who grew up in a village suddenly appeared with such an extraordinary character. Everyone was shocked and whispered in amazement.

Wang Shan murmured in disbelief: "What did you say? Xie Yuan?"

"That's right, it's the first one, Xie Yuan who is real gold and silver!" The woman danced the handkerchief, her voice was so loud that even the people around the outermost layer could hear, "This is the place in Lushan Township. For the first time, at the age of 12, Zhong Jieyuan, Master Zuo Sun personally ordered it!"

Wang Ziqian felt like he was in a dream. There were so many people who took the exam, and all of them had studied for many years longer than him, but Xie Yuan ordered him. It was really unbelievable.

"Young master, congratulations! Young master Zhang asked me to come over to congratulate me, and he also sent a word. If young master comes to Beijing to catch the exam, young master Zhang is willing to help you! Here, this is a letter from young master Zhang to you, young master Take it."

Wang Ziqian received the letter, but still couldn't get out of his dream, staring blankly at the people in the yard, as if he had lost his soul.

Wang Yanran came back to his senses first, went to the house to get some money, wrapped a red envelope casually, put it in the mother-in-law's hand, and thanked her for coming to report the letter.

The woman said another good word, and the music troupe made a complete disturbance in the yard before leaving in a whimper.

The villagers were still surrounded in the courtyard, and each of them congratulated Wang Ziqian. Lushan Village has not seen a scholar for a long time, and a young talent appeared as soon as he left, so it has become the center of everyone's discussion.

After finally dismissing the onlookers, the two siblings returned to the house, looking at each other speechlessly, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Wang Shan's eyes were slightly red, and he said in a trembling voice: "You have studied hard all day long, and you have finally paid off. If your parents know about it, they will be happy for you."

Wang Ziqian was still holding the letter, blinking his eyes in a daze, "I didn't answer well, so I thought I wouldn't pass the exam."

Wang Yanran hugged him into his arms, and said comfortingly: "I know you are not a thing in the pool, and one day you will go to the outside world."

Wang Ziqian's eyes gradually gained focus, and then he accepted the fact that he was in the middle school, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up, and his voice was filled with joy, "Sister, I passed the exam, I am in the middle school!"

Wang Shan nodded, "Well, you got Jieyuan, No.1 in the provincial examination."

Wang Ziqian's eyes were full of complacency, which belonged to children, the joy and satisfaction born of rewarding hard work.

Wang Shanran touched his face, and said softly: "Youth success is solid and worthy of praise, but you must not be complacent and stagnate."

Wang Ziqian nodded vigorously, "Ziqian understands!"

"The person who came to report the letter is the family you are staying with. You will come to thank you in person later, you know?"

"Yeah. I know."

"There are also old and new wives, you must not slack off. The township head and county magistrate should also come to thank them for their recommendation."

Wang Shanran asked each and every one, Wang Ziqian listened carefully and kept it in his heart.

Wang Ziqian said: "Young Master Zhang sent a letter, sister, let's see what is written?"

"The letter written to you, you should read it yourself."

Wang Ziqian then opened the letter, read it carefully, and then looked at Wang Shanran hesitantly.

He handed the letter to Wang Shanran for her to read.

In just a few words, I congratulated him on his success, and then hoped that he would go to Chunwei next year with all his might.During this period of more than half a year, Zhang Lan was willing to sponsor him to study in Beijing.

Wang Ziqian hesitated, "Sister, what do you think?"

Smart as Wang Shuran, don't you know that Zhang Lan intends to show kindness, and Wang Ziqian will do something in the future, which can be regarded as the kindness of knowing him, and the power involved after that cannot be explained in a few words.

She pondered for a moment and said: "Ziqian, this is your own business, you should make the decision. All I can say is one sentence, the kindness of a drop of water, the spring will repay it, and after the spring, you can still do it." Whether you want to be yourself or not is not something I can tell you the answer to. You have to figure it out for yourself, whether you should or not, my sister will listen to you."

The 12-year-old child's eyes showed infinite confusion and helplessness, and the thin letter in his hand seemed to be a verdict for his own life. Whether he should or should not, separated the future Lu Shengsheng into two.

He squeezed Zhang Lan's letter, speechless for a long time.

It has been almost ten days since Linqing left.

The originally popular room returned to a calm state, the rabbit was also taken away, and Shen Xu guarded an empty room, secretly fascinated.

It's so lively outside, blowing and blowing.

Shen Xu glanced at it, then looked away without interest, and continued to look at the side of the vegetable soil.

The cabbage can be picked, and the gourd is still climbing the vines. People who work hard to hoe the ground just to see the vegetable seedlings mature are not here to cheer for it.

Why did Linqing leave...

I remember that person said that no matter what, he would accompany me.

When he said this, there was still a flash of shyness on the man's face, but his eyes were always full of determination.

I still remember that day when the south wind was blowing, making people want to get drunk, the two of them were walking home with the sunset, and the young master's soft words, like the spring breeze in March, warmed his heart.

I won't leave you alone.

There was a trace of sadness in Shen Xu's eyes, she would not leave me alone...why didn't she come back again...

I don't know when I started to get used to that person's company.Cooking, starching, sweeping the floor, boiling water, a paper umbrella on a rainy day, and a new suit on a spring day... the companionship that penetrates into the bone marrow, the familiar silhouette, like an old clothes in the closet, never noticed when it is at hand , once lost, but feels lost for a long time.

It was he who said that if you want to leave one day, you don't have to think about me, just leave.

He also said that you can't be a fake couple with me for the rest of your life, when you have someone you like, just live with him.

It seemed like he'd been driving him away from day one here.

However, when she really left now, Shen Xu was not as free and easy as she thought.

He is not used to it, not used to anything.

He is not used to no one urging him to get up to teach in the morning, not used to not seeing the figure who came to deliver the meal under the sun at noon, not used to the empty house with no one after class, not used to the crowd at night when the lamp is blown He is now alone in bed...

Shen Xu sat in the courtyard thinking silently, thinking that her eyes were slightly sour.

At this moment, he seems to have played back the role he should have. Once the prosperity is gone, the world is reduced to people, alone, lonely and wandering.

The boundless loneliness overwhelmed him, but under the scorching sun, he couldn't feel any warmth.

Someone called his name in the front yard, "Master, Master."

Shen Xu calmed down a bit, walked through the main room, and saw Wang Shanran and Wang Ziqian standing outside the courtyard gate.

"Miss Wang, Ziqian." Shen Xu opened the chaifei door.

Wang Ziqian suddenly knelt down on his knees with a thump, kowtowed three times, and said loudly: "Ziqian's success in the provincial examination is due to the master's teaching. Ziqian thanks the respected teacher."

The words were sonorous and powerful, and Xu Xu was so shocked that he came back to his senses for a long time.

"Is the list announced? Did you win the prize?" Shen Xu couldn't help but lift Wang Ziqian up and put him in his arms, "Great!"

When calm was restored, Wang Ziqian told Shen Xu his plan.

"Zhang Lan is willing to help you study in Beijing?" Shen Xu asked in surprise.

Wang Ziqian nodded, "Ziqian is ready to respond."

Shen Xu raised her eyes to look at Wang Shanran, Wang Shanran nodded lightly, and Shen Xu knew that Li had already told Wang Ziqian about what was involved behind this, and the decision she made now was the result of careful consideration.

Shen Xu nodded and said: "Now that you have made your decision, prepare well for the next year's spring. Master's talents are limited, so you can only teach so far. You have to go the rest of the way by yourself."

Wang Ziqian's eyes became hot, he knelt down on the ground, and bowed again: "Master's kindness, Ziqian will always remember it in his heart."

Shen Xu's heart was also turbulent. He helped Wang Ziqian up, and his eyes were red.

"What is Miss Wang's plan?"

Wang Shan lowered his eyes and said sadly: "Chang'an is thousands of miles away, I am worried, and plan to go to Beijing with Ziqian."

This is a farewell, the future is uncertain, maybe we will never see each other again.

Shen Xu couldn't help feeling a little parting sorrow in his heart, staring for a long time, and then slowly said: "Treasure all the way."

Wang Shan quickly wiped away a little tear, pressed the thousands of waves in his chest into a corner where he would never let it out again, and said softly: "Master also cherishes it."

So far, the concubine's heart is lost, and she will never see the sun again.

The author has something to say: There are too many things to do today, and I can write a farming article together. It’s really annoying...It’s even later, sorry~

It is expected to fail, and we will have to meet again in the next chapter~

Because I still really want to save the image of Miss Wang. She is not a bad person. She has intentions towards Shen Xu, but she never thought of getting involved with the two of them. She regrets her unintentional mistake, so she decides to hide her heart forever. In my heart, leave silently~

But she unintentionally promoted the progress of the two, and she really did a good deed~

And I really like her way of educating Wang Ziqian~

In short, I just want to save Miss Wang, everyone, don't hate her~~

PS. After comparing the writing style of [Gongzi] and [Qingqing Zijin] next door, I now seriously suspect that I am a genius...so sad...
