The girl hurriedly covered her, and heard no inquiries from the room, patted her chest, walked back to the yard with a slight hand and gestured to the maid to bring the soup-making cup to the kitchen, and looked through the books dried by the servants.
These are all from Mr. Xu's house, and they rarely make people move on weekdays.
The girl looked at it and reached out to pick up one of the books and looked it out.
Seeing that she was fascinated by her, the maid brought a stool to the porch, "Miss, the old man often said that reading in the sun is not good for his eyes, so go to the porch to read."
The girl was fascinated by the sight and turned to walk down the corridor, her eyes never leaving the book in her hand. The maid carefully protected her side, waiting for her to sit down and stood beside her.
...
In the room, Song Si and Sun Jin forgot the time, and Mr. Xu stopped, but they were still immersed in his explanation and did not come back to their senses.
After talking for too long, Mr. Xu's throat was dry and he couldn't help but cough. The two of them came to their senses. Song Si got up and poured water, and handed it to him respectfully.
Mr. Xu was very satisfied with him.
He asked a few questions just now. Song Si’s insights are unique. It is rare to have such profound knowledge at such an age.
Song Si took a step back and bowed to the end, "I am fortunately thanking the old man today, the students benefited a lot, and the students could not repay them."
Sun Jin also quickly stood up and bowed to the end, "Thank you for your advice, Mr.."
"With your knowledge, if you perform stably, you will definitely be the first. I am waiting for your good news."
"Surrendering Mr.'s auspicious words, the students will definitely not disappoint the old man."
The two said at the same time.
Mr. Xu nodded.
Seeing that his face was exhausted, Song Si said, "It's getting late, and the students will no longer disturb the old man."
"Okay, Xu Liang!"
A servant who was drying books in the yard heard the shout, put down the book in his hand, and came in respectfully, "Old sir."
"Send them out for me."
The servant made a gesture of invitation, "Please follow me, two."
The two saluted Mr. Xu again and went out with him.
Dong!
The book in the girl's hand fell to the ground.
When Sun Jin heard the sound, the girl also happened to look over. Her eyes met. Sun Jin realized that he was not doing well and quickly retracted his eyes.
The girl also took it back and bent down, "Oh, my book!"
"Is it Ling'er?"
Mr. Xu's voice came from inside the house.
"Great-grandfather, it's me."
Ling'er answered, picked up the book, took out a handkerchief and wiped it again and again.
"Come in."
Ling'er signaled the maid to go to the kitchen to bring the soup. She walked into the house with the book and took the little girl's coquettish behavior, "Great-grandfather, I've been here for a long time. When I saw someone in your room, I kept sitting in the corridor reading the book."
"What are you looking at?"
"The travel notes from all over the country are very beautiful, and I am fascinated by it. Can my great-grandfather ask me to take this book back to read? I promise that I will not break it."
Mr. Xu also likes this book the most. He has hardly left the capital in his life. His only yearning is to go out for a walk in his lifetime, look at the places written in the book, and appreciate the scenery of various places.
"Great-grandfather, you agree."
Seeing that he had no answer for a long time, Ling'er acted coquettishly.
"Okay, OK, OK."
"Thank you great-grandfather."
Ling'er put the book on the table, took the soup cup from the maid's hand, and placed it in front of Mr. Xu, "This is what I cooked for my great-grandfather with my own hands. You drink it while it's hot."
...
Seeing that Song Si and Sun Jin were sent out by the servants, the students who were still queuing up and not entering looked at them enviously. Song Si walked towards the carriage without squinting.
Sun Jin was a little excited and couldn't help but feel excited, and followed Song Si's carriage.
Before he could sit down, he punched the car wall excitedly. With a thud, the driver was so scared that he asked hurriedly, "Young Master Song, what's wrong?"
"Nothing happens."
Song Si's voice was steady and he glanced at Sun Jin.
Sun Jin still couldn't suppress it, so he simply sat on the car board at Song Si's feet, "Brother Song, Brother Song, pinch me, let me see if I'm dreaming!"
Song Si was too lazy to pay attention to him. When he was in the city, he thought he was just a young master. He hadn't seen him for a few months, and he was even more stupid.
Sun Jin grabbed his hand and slapped it hard on his face. With a loud bang, Song Si was startled, but Sun Jin grinned, "It hurts! It's true, it's true, I really got Mr. Xu's guidance."
"parking!"
“Well…”
The carriage stopped.
"Come!"
The servant who was following the carriage lifted the curtain.
"Take him down!"
Song Si is not polite.
"Young Master Sun, please come down."
Sun Jin was not annoyed, and got off the carriage with a grin. He watched Song Si's carriage walk away, and then climbed back to his carriage with both hands and feet. He smiled foolishly along the way and went to Master Sun's room with Yun Duo, "Dad...hehe...hehehehe."
Mr. Sun was so scared that his heart stopped beating, "Jin'er, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm fine...hehehe...I'm just so happy...hehehehe."
Mr. Sun trembled and stretched out his two fingers, "Jin'er, tell dad, what's this?"
"Of course it's the second...hehehe."
Mr. Sun added another finger, "What is this?"
"three."
Mr. Sun was relieved and sat on the side, so he had the intention to look at the servant on the side. Seeing this, the servant immediately said, "Young Master saw Mr. Xu today, and he still needs his guidance."
"Jin'er, is that true?"
Sun Jin nodded continuously.
"Very good."
Mr. Sun couldn't help but stand up again, "Jin'er can get guidance from Mr. Xu, and there is hope for him to be on the list."
Although Sun Jin was ranked well during the imperial examination, the imperial examination brought together outstanding students from all over the country, and Sun Jin may not be on the list.
With Mr. Xu's guidance, Mr. Xu lived in the capital for a long time and knew the trends in the court, and his guidance would also hit the nail on the head.
"Thanks to Brother Song, I followed him in because of his benefits."
"Then what are you waiting for, go!"
Mr. Sun pulled him up and said, "Dad, thank you very much."
...
After Song Si returned to the inn, he took the paper and pen and wrote down what Mr. Xu said. Just as he was about to think carefully word by word, the door was shot again, "Brother Song."
When she heard that it was Sun Jin's voice, Song Si frowned slightly.
He was not used to someone guarding the door, so he asked the servants of the Gu family to go back to their respective rooms to rest, which made Sun Jin more convenient.
"My dad and I are here to thank you."
Song Si had to put down the paper he had just written, but he didn't wash his hands and went to open the door.
"Young Master Song."
Mr. Sun bowed and saw the ink on his hand at a glance, "We didn't disturb Mr. Song, are we?"
"No, please come in, two of you."
The father and son went in.
"Two guys, I'll wash my hands."
