Chapter 231 The Little Scholar Killed by His Classmates (5)
He stood there silently for a long time with a sullen face, saying nothing. Then he told someone to watch carefully and left.
After returning to the study, he told Yang Zhong this.
"Tell me, is what my cousin said today true or false?"
In fact, Yang Zhong had had doubts before, but after all, it was the master's family's business, and he did not dare to interfere and investigate the lady.
Now seeing Yang Ruqing's confused look, he didn't know whether he really wanted to check or was just trying to please his cousin.
But thinking of that face that looked exactly like the old lady, Yang Zhong couldn't say a word of obedience.
"Master, it's actually quite easy to find out. All we have to do is tie up the maids and servants around Madam."
"You're right, but let's not talk about anything else for now. It's not too late to talk about this after Yun'er is buried."
"Then, sir, what about the heir?"
"Hey! Given my cousin's personality, what are the chances of that child finding his roots?"
Yang Zhong shook his head. "In my humble opinion, with Miss Biao's personality, it might be a little difficult."
After hearing what Yang Zhong said, Yang Ruqing sighed deeply again.
"Oh, I'm afraid it's not just difficult, it's absolutely impossible!
Forget it, since she doesn't want to, forget it. I'll just go back and give the child what he deserves.
Go talk to the clan leader tomorrow and pick one.
It’s better to choose someone who is older. If he is too young, he might not even be able to lift the pot.”
In fact, the main thing is that what Zheng Sangning said today also left a mark on his heart.
They are worried that younger people may be easily harmed, while older people can also be more aware of their own defenses.
Plus, if I send someone to protect him, there will definitely be no problem.
Zheng Sangning and Shuangshuang didn't care about these things.
The mother and son went to bed early and both gave instructions to Xiaojuzi in the middle of the night.
"Go get some good food for Jiang Yunzhi's family, Hua the matchmaker, Mr. Chen, and Yang Ruli's family.
I don’t have time for them right now, so don’t let them get too comfortable.”
Little Orange didn't object this time and ran away happily immediately.
They were given a debilitating drug that had been stockpiled by a previous world.
He hated the culprit Jiang Yunzhi the most, so he increased the dosage several times.
The next day, both of them got up before dawn.
However, although Shuangshuang refused Zheng Sangning's request to accompany her to take the exam yesterday, Zheng Sangning couldn't sleep at all.
He got up in the middle of the night and prepared food for Shuangshuang. Shuangshuang had no choice but to let him do it.
They both got up, had breakfast, carried their exam baskets, and went to the county town with their mother's love.
I met up with a few classmates from school outside the examination hall. We just greeted each other and didn't say anything else. We just waited nervously.
Shuangshuang looked at Jiang Yunzhi, whose face was ashen and who was leaning weakly on the servant, and felt very satisfied.
Even if he can make it through the three-day exam in this state, he will definitely be exhausted!
When the time came, two teams of yamen runners came in an orderly manner from the street corner.
As soon as they arrived, they held the water and fire sticks horizontally, surrounded the entrance to the examination hall, and drove out all the people who were not students.
Then the students who came to take the exam began to squeeze in, and the situation got out of control in an instant.
Shuangshuang used his spiritual sense to check his examination basket, and even asked Xiaojuzi to help him keep watch.
Because he believed that Jiang Yunzhi would definitely send someone to harm him.
Then, when the crowd was crowded and everyone was just watching their feet to avoid falling.
Shuangshuang felt someone touching his sleeve.
With a sweep of his spiritual sense, he saw a large ball of paper lying quietly in his sleeve.
Put it directly into the space and squeeze in quickly.
When he passed by the person who threw the paper ball at him, he retaliated in the same way as the person who threw the paper ball at him.
The ball of paper instantly fell into the man's chest pocket.
If the Master had not already decided on it, Jiang Yunzhi would have been a joint guarantor with the five of them.
Then he threw the paper ball into Jiang Yongzhi's exam basket.
After the names were called out to prove that the five people had guaranteed each other, the yamen runners directed them to go to the north door of the examination room.
This gate is also called "Dragon Gate". The meaning is easy to understand, which is naturally the carp jumping over the Dragon Gate!
There is a place where you can search yourself and check your exam basket when you enter.
The brushes in the examination basket will be opened and checked, and then all the pastries will be poured out, and those that are slightly thick will be crushed into pieces.
After a body search, you enter the examination room and go to collect your room number card.
Fortunately, he and Zhang Junjie were lucky and did not get bad numbers.
Everyone was not allowed to make eye contact and walked to their own rooms without looking around.
The next step is to close your eyes and rest, looking at your nose and your heart, waiting for all the candidates to enter.
Suddenly, a heart-wrenching sound came from outside.
"I didn't do it, sir! I really didn't! Someone must have framed me. I beg you to investigate!"
All the students were shocked and stared at the door in panic.
They were all afraid that they would be implicated, and sure enough, the yamen runners came in soon.
All the candidates who had pledged guaranty with the cheating candidate were escorted out.
They can forget about taking it as a reference this year, but if they take time to reflect on it, they will still be able to do it next year.
As for the one who cheated, he will naturally never have a chance to take the imperial examination in this life.
Shuangshuang didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt for getting them into trouble.
Birds of a feather flock together. It’s probably not a good thing to be a guarantor for someone with a bad character!
I finally made it to the afternoon. When the time was almost up, I heard noise coming from the other side again. It turned out that someone couldn't hold on any longer and fainted.
This person is none other than Jiang Yunzhi!
But he fainted at just the right time. If he had done it faster, he should have finished it.
After everyone left the examination room, no one was in the mood to chat anymore, so we said goodbye and went back.
The others were all from the county town, so Shuangshuang was the only one who returned to the private school.
Unexpectedly, when I walked out of the crowd, I heard Master Liu's son, Liu Yuming, calling in a milky voice.
"Brother Yu Shuang, here!"
It turned out that it was his master's wife who came to pick him up in a carriage.
He ran over quickly, "Master's Wife! Yuming! Why are you here?"
Xiao Yuming quickly answered, "We're here to take you home! Mommy even made you something delicious! Let's go back quickly."
After returning home and having dinner, Master Liu sent him away.
"Don't think about anything else. Go back and get a good night's sleep. We'll check the results tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you, Master, and thank you, Master's Wife."
"And me and me."
Six-year-old Yuming raised his hands high, remembering that he must not forget his contribution.
"Yes, yes, yes. We also want to thank our little Yuming for taking the trouble to come and pick up his brother."
"You're welcome! Next time you go back to hunt rabbits, remember to catch a small one for me and bring it back for me to raise."
"Okay, then I'll catch you a little rabbit, a white one."
"The white one is for my sister, I want the gray one."
"Okay, then catch two!"
A little girl about ten years old next to her was so happy when she heard that they were also willing to catch rabbits for her.
