During dinner in the evening, Zhao Ce didn't talk about what happened to them in the mountains.

After all, this matter is over for now.

After saying this, it will only make them more worried.

Otherwise, within two months, I will go to Fucheng to take the college examination again.

Zhao Youcai and the others must be worried that they won't be able to eat.

Mrs. Li cooked a table full of delicious dishes and stewed a large pot of soup.

First, a bowl of soup was served to Zhao Ce and Su Caier.

"After eating and resting for two days, you should feel much better."

After Zhao Ce thanked them, they had a lively meal with Zhao Youcai's family.

Li took Zhao Wenli to pack up again before returning home in the dark.

Zhao Ce locked the door and returned to the room.

Su Cai'er had already found clean bedding and changed into it.

Lying on the familiar bed, the young couple couldn't help but sigh.

"So comfortable..."

Su Cai'er huddled under the quilt twice, then turned over holding the quilt.

The moonlight passed through the paper on the window and hit the room bit by bit.

Zhao Ce lowered the bed curtain to block out the last bit of light.

Su Cai'er consciously pushed herself into his arms and asked him in a low voice: "Husband, are you going to leave the city tomorrow?"

Zhao Ce hugged her and rubbed her back habitually.

"Well, I have to go out."

"First go and check with your husband that you are safe, then go to the county government office and express your gratitude to the county magistrate."

Su Cai'er nodded and said, "Then I'll prepare some gifts for my husband and take them out."

Zhao Ce kissed her and said, "Okay, you make the arrangements."

By the time I finish my business in the city, the Qingming Festival will be here.

We will also arrange to visit the grave at that time, and the little girl’s birthday will come soon.

Zhao Ce was thinking about what gifts to give to his children.

After my birthday, I am now 16 years old and a serious young adult.

Zhao Ce thought to himself and soon fell asleep.

Familiar beds, reassuring environment.

The two slept until the big rooster crows next door.

Su Cai'er got up in a daze, rubbed her eyes,

Looking at the familiar scene in front of me, I still couldn't get back to my senses.

Zhao Ce also sat up from the bed and kissed her.

"woke up?"

Su Cai'er then remembered that they had returned to Shuiqiao Village yesterday, in their large blue brick house with tiles.

With this thought in mind, she leaned over and hugged her husband.

"Good morning, husband."

"Well, good morning."

"Okay, I still have to leave the city today."

The two hugged each other on the bed for a while before getting up.

After washing, I had breakfast.

Zhao Ce left Su Cai'er to clean up at home, and he took the gift himself to the entrance of the village and took Uncle Dachang's ox cart to the city.

Zhao Youcai arranged for the family's calf to go out to plow fields for the villagers.

Only Uncle Dachang owns an oxcart and goes out of the city once a day.

After Zhao Ce got on the bullock cart, everyone in the village was extremely enthusiastic.

"Zhao Ce, we heard the sound of the carriage yesterday, so we guessed that you and your wife were back."

"It's a pity that you came back late."

"That day, the official came to deliver the good news. He was beating gongs all the way. Many villagers from Si'an Village came."

"Yes, if you were at home, it would definitely be very lively."

Zhao Ce smiled and said: "When I was in Fucheng, official officials also came to deliver the good news."

"This time I didn't catch up with the good news from the village. After the college examination, I will try to have the officials come to the village to report the good news again."

People in the car looked at Zhao Ce happily.

This is the most promising kid in their village. When they go out and talk to others, they are all very honored.

Now when they heard that Zhao Ce said that official officials would come to announce the good news, they all believed it.

The group arrived in the city chatting and laughing.

Now, everyone in the city knows that Zhao Ce has been convicted of double crimes.

Many people who recognized him on the road spoke with compliments.

Zhao Ce arrived at the school first with the gift.

Wu Xueli and Qiu Shubai arrived earlier than him.

When Zhao Ce arrived, both of them had already finished talking to Li Xiucai about what had happened in the past few days.

Li Xiucai frowned as he listened.

Seeing Zhao Ce coming, he pointed to the seat next to him and asked him to sit down too.

Li Xiucai asked Zhao Ce: "After this incident, are you afraid?"

Wu Xueli told Li Xiucai everything.

Although Li Xiucai knew that Zhao Ce was a tough-minded person, he still couldn't help but be concerned.

Zhao Ce honestly said: "It has some influence."

Li Xiucai sighed.

From what they said, the leader was most likely the Guishan drama thief Gu Sanzai.

When Li Xiucai was young, he traveled to various places to study.

He had also heard of the name Gu Sanzi.

This Guishan drama thief and another drama thief named Tang are both extremely powerful.

The local people basically joined the two of them.

The local government has nothing to do with them.

I just didn't expect that they would actually want to reach out to them.

Li Xiucai shook his head and said: "It's not your fault that you are capable. It's because there are too many people with ulterior motives."

"No matter how careful you are, misfortunes will happen."

After glancing at the three of them, Li Xiucai said: "Although your trip was dangerous, fortunately you all came back unscathed."

"You have gained some knowledge about this matter."

"If you want to go out on study tours in the future after you have passed the exam to become a scholar, you should also learn a lesson and be more careful."

Those with the title of scholar or above can travel without obstructions throughout the Ming Dynasty.

Many students, after passing the scholar examination, will choose to study abroad to increase their knowledge.

Firstly, I want to make friends, and secondly, I can write more flesh-and-blood articles during the provincial examination.

However, Li Xiucai did not intend to interfere with the choice of Zhao Ce and the others.

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and said: "After you go to thank the Lord County Lord, you can go back and have a good rest."

"In a few days, I will take you to have two more banquets to congratulate you on passing the Tongsheng Examination, and then you will start preparing for the Academy Examination."

All three of Zhao Ce are good.

After getting up, the three of them walked out together.

When they arrived at the county government office, Magistrate Zhang learned that the three people were coming and asked people to take them to the inner hall.
