There’s a Dragon Girl in the Desolate Sea: 828|Seventy-second dragon scales (four)

The seventy-second dragon scale (four)

The next morning, when Linglong got up, Xie Ji was already well-dressed. Rice porridge was boiling on the stove used for heating in the main room, bubbling and steaming. Xie Ji, who was seriously peeling beans, looked like jade. .

The two brothers and sisters don't actually look alike, but when strangers see them, they must think they are brothers and sisters rather than lovers, because the expressions on their eyebrows are almost the same! In short, the shape is not similar but the spirit is similar.

Seeing that her sister got up but didn't wear much clothes, Xie Ji let go of her work and stood up, walked up to her, frowned slightly: "Why wear so little? It's so cold, if you get sick, Not good."

Speaking and holding Linglong's hand, she went to her room, and then Linglong was stunned as she watched this brother find several more clothes for her, and wrapped her layer by layer. A fat ball.

She thinks she has difficulty walking, has difficulty breathing, and thinks she might know what it means to be "dead".

Unfortunately, Xie Ji was quite satisfied. Seeing that Linglong wanted to go out to play, she found a hat and gloves for her. Linglong lost her temper and threw off her hat, so she didn't go out!

Xie Ji insisted: "I'm going out to shovel snow after breakfast. If Long'er doesn't wear much clothes, I won't take you there."

Fengcheng snows heavily and the roads are congested. Under the call of the government, the big guys voluntarily shovel snow, so as to leave a path for walking. When the sun comes out, the snow will melt and flow into the river ditches. Although Xie Ji is young, he is also a serious householder, and there is absolutely no reason for him to sit and watch when others shovel snow.

Linglong snorted: "If you don't go, you won't go."

Xie Ji couldn't do anything about her. The brothers and sisters had breakfast. Xie Ji carried the shovel and the backpack, and Linglong stood at the door to watch him, and then went to pick up eggs. It was so cold that their chickens didn't lay eggs much , all day long nests in a ball, looks very pitiful. Doubao is as energetic as always. Because of the cold weather, Linglong took it to the house and made a simple dog kennel for it. Obviously, to be able to live in the house is very exciting for Doubao. Now it also ran away Come out, jump up and down on the snow in the yard, leaving a footprint of plum blossoms.

The first thing Xie Jing did when he woke up in the morning was to cook porridge, and then he shoveled the snow in the yard, revealing the bluestone brick road. Although his focus is now on reading, his homework He never stopped, and the neighbors who shoveled snow with him were full of praise for him when they saw that he was young but had great strength, and he was never lazy. He was a scholar! I heard that all the husbands praised him very much, and as a result, they even shoveled snow with the neighbors!

Someone thought of being a matchmaker and came to Fengcheng for a year. The fourteen-year-old Xie Ji is not as thin as before. He has drawn a lot of strips, and he still looks gentle, but when he rolls up his sleeves, he Can vaguely see the thin and strong muscles, Mr. Ouyang always thought that a scholar should have a good physique, otherwise he was afraid that he would not be able to survive the imperial examination. Mrs. Ouyang was even more careful to help him repair his body, and the two brothers and sisters were called one Red face.

It was Aunt Zhu who spoke first, saying that her family had a niece of the same age. She had a good appearance and temperament, and was very diligent. She was 13 this year, and her family was also looking at others. She asked Xie Ji if she had any plans to start a family.

Xie Ji:......

Aunt Zhu looked at him expectantly, and said that her niece was the most kind-hearted, even if she had raised a sister after marriage, she would not say anything. To these kind and warm neighbors, Xie Ji is always cold They couldn't help but put a smile on their faces. They were new to Fengcheng, and they were not familiar with the place. The neighbors, headed by Aunt Zhu's family, gave them a lot of help, but in Xie Ji's life, there were too many comparisons Marriage is more important.

I haven't found that person yet. My mother doesn't even have a resting place. Their brothers and sisters are like duckweeds floating in the world. They are home to the world. He wants to stand out and find the people behind the scenes to take revenge. Others?

Aunt Zhu is very sorry to be rejected by Xie Ji, but she can accept it. The people of Fengcheng are good at this. They are big-hearted and open to thinking. Xie Ji is a child who is very thin and dark when he first arrives. Knowing that it was raised this year, it really looks like a jasmine tree. Aunt Zhu has never read a book and has no ink in her stomach.

After shoveling the snow, Xie Ji went to the pastry shop to buy freshly baked chestnut cakes for her sister. At the beginning of the new year, the private school was on holiday until the tenth day of the first lunar month. He had a long time to play with his sister at home.

For Linglong, the ancient life was quite boring, especially when she was so poor, so in her spare time, her biggest hobby was sleeping. The dogs, chickens, and chickens in the family were all afraid of her. It was clean and tidy, but Xie Ji felt that his sister was wronged by raising chickens and dogs every day. How could he know that it was fully automatic farming, and his sister was just feeding them at most!

Time flies, and the spring begins after the new year. Xie Ji will end. He has Mr. Ouyang as a guarantee, and he is even more talented. Being recorded as a juror, now that winter is approaching again, Xie Ji is ready to go to the capital with her family, so as to meet the exam in the spring of next year.

At that time, he was nineteen years old. He was born with a long body and a tall, handsome and straight, and full of book spirit. Because of his outstanding achievements, Mr. Ouyang became famous in Fengcheng and sent his children to private schools in the city. , Xie Ji also successfully reached the top No.1 Golden Bachelor in Fengcheng. The husband and wife were a lot worried about his marriage, but Xie Ji didn't care at all. This time he went to the capital. Mr. Ouyang repeatedly warned that if they met A good marriage, but don't miss it.

Xie Ji listened with a gentle expression, and agreed, but will she do the same... That's another matter. In short, the husband has told him a lot of things, and there are not a few who violated the law.

Because he was already a juror, Xie Jixiao had assets and bought the house he rented earlier. Before he went to Beijing, he made the decision to hand over all the chickens and ducks in the family to the neighbors, thanking them for taking care of them for many years. Help, the two brothers and sisters are very popular in the alley. Because they are extremely smart people, they can speak the local dialect quite fluently, and they have settled down, and everyone has long regarded them as their own.

Sending away the most proud disciple, Mr. Ouyang burst into tears, and his wife was extremely reluctant to be exquisite. The old couple sat face to face and cried together. It's better to go to the capital, the capital has everything.

Xie Ji's character has become more introverted. In recent years, he has almost no expression to outsiders. You can call him cold. He is very gentle and decent in his speech and demeanor, but you have to say that he is approachable and easy to get along with. However, he seemed inaccessible in the mist, and apart from his sister, there seemed to be no one else in the world who could make him smile sincerely and happily.

Before it was cold before entering Beijing, Mr. Ouyang also participated in the exam in the capital. He had a former classmate who was an official in the capital. This time his lover went to Beijing, he wrote a letter asking him to thank him. Ji took it on and told him to visit the capital when he was in the capital, and that old friend would help him.

Xie Ji didn't go. They have saved a lot of money over the years. Unlike other scholars who hate the smell of copper and are even ashamed of dealing with merchants, Xie Ji really likes money and also likes saving money. He privately There is a shop quietly in the city to do business. Fengcheng is located in the north. Although there are wars when it is close to neighboring countries, it also has some specialties that other towns do not have. A smart person like Xie Ji can do anything with ease, so he has a small amount of assets. When he entered Beijing this time, he sold the shop in his hand. In addition, he was also an iron rooster on weekdays and was admitted to fame. Gifts from the squires of Houfeng City... It's definitely more than enough to buy a small house in the capital.

He will basically never return to Fengcheng in the future. Since his mother died, he and his sister have wandered around. There is no place in this world for him to be attached. The husband and wife are kind to him and treat him well. If you succeed, you will surely repay the grace of re-creation.

These are all agreed upon with Linglong, and my sister has no objection.

After arriving in the capital, it took them a few days to finally buy a house that they were more satisfied with. Although the terrain was a little out of the way, it was good for the price. Xie Ji didn't know why she was so lucky. The previous owner said It was an official in the DPRK who was annoyed that the dignitaries were banished from the capital, so he sold all the house in his family. Due to the small land occupation and the remote terrain, this small house only needed 2,000 taels of silver to win.

In the next time, Xie Ji began to buy servants and found workers to remodel the house according to her sister's preferences. He did all these tedious things himself, never letting Linglong worry about it, as the weather gradually turned colder , When the dripping water turned into ice, Xie Ji's mind was all on reading. He immersed himself in reading and often read until dawn.

When he was in the exam, some gentlemen who were more powerful than Mr. Ouyang wanted to accept him as his apprentice, but Xie Ji declined. He was a talented and intelligent person, and Mr. Ouyang was kind to him, so he would not accept him. He is willing to take others as his teacher again. The most important thing is that he has a younger sister who is smarter than him.

No other gentlemen needed at all.

When Xie Ji was in Fengcheng, he was famous for his ability to read, a great talent, and he was almost a household name, but when he got to the capital, it was not so conspicuous. Some people are there, especially after the new year, the weather is gradually getting warmer, and scholars in long gowns can be seen everywhere in the capital. Poetry meetings are held one after another, but Xie Ji has never participated.

He also rarely interacts with other people. His temperament seems to be gentle, but he is very indifferent. The servants in the family are always trembling when they see him. Even the dog named Doubao raised by his sister also tucks its tail when it encounters Xie Ji.

For so many years, he has never forgotten the sufferings of the past one day. In the wandering day after day, in the tears of his mother, those despair, sadness, anger... all turned into hatred in the end. He restrained his hatred under the surface of calm and rationality, and no one knew when it would suddenly erupt.

Linglong personally took him into the examination room when the general examination began. Speaking of the reason why their shop made so much money, Linglong had a lot of credit. Xie Ji didn't know where her little sister's little head came from so many strange ideas. Wonderful thinking, although the weather is getting warmer, the spring is cold and the temperature difference between day and night is large. Some people are participating in the meeting for the first time, and they don’t wear much clothes. Xie Ji’s clothes and food are all arranged by Linglong. The rice cakes that come out will remain soft and not spoiled even after a few days, not to mention the beef sauce with large chunks of meat, and the duck down jacket that looks thin but is actually very warm.

Maintaining physical strength and health is very important. Many students have been studying hard for ten years, but they will eventually be destroyed. out.

And he was very lucky, the test number he was assigned was clean, and the quilt had no mold smell, and he was 108,000 miles away from the smelly number, and a candidate from Fengcheng who was with him was unlucky enough to be assigned. When I was near the smelly number, I vomited after the first test.

Xie Ji said: "I told you earlier, don't drink too much water and don't eat too much food before the exam."

This candidate from the same town, surnamed Guan and named Zhuo, was crying and sad at the moment, "Brother Ji, you have to help me and thank my sister, if I didn't have the clothes and food that my sister gave me, I would have been too early. It's dead!"

Xie Ji said coldly, "Who is your sister?"

Guan Zhuoke knew the student **** of the dead sister's control too well, and quickly folded his hands to beg for mercy: "I was wrong, I was wrong, it's your sister, it's your sister, how can I have such a blessing and such a good Sister!"

When Xie Ji heard the words, she nodded slightly, and glanced at Guan Zhuo with the eyes of your kid who finally said something human.

Most of the classmates who used to study with him did not pass the entrance examination. Except for Guan Zhuo, there was only one person from the same town this time, but that person was not from Fengcheng, so he did not know each other well. As for why he treated others coldly, Xie Ji Hui is so good with Guan Zhuo, and he will also give him a copy of the clothes and food that his sister made... In the final analysis, it is because Guan Zhuo is shameless.

His family is rich, especially rich. His father used to be a child, but he stopped being a child. Therefore, he dreamed that his son could be admitted to a scholar. Guan Zhuo grew up in such dire days, until He met Xie Ji in Mr. Ouyang's private school, and he only got involved with wishful thinking. There was no other reason. He just wanted to inhale the immortal energy of the **** of learning. You see, he got the guidance of the **** of learning. Passed the exam! Everyone can come to the meeting!

Maybe you can take the exam and go home!

Of course, he can't be compared with Brother Ji, who is the first in the test every time. His goal is the tail of the crane. Anyway, as long as he wins, the ranking is not important, and his father is happy.

Because this person is thick-skinned and stalking, he still lives in Xie Ji's house. Although Xie Ji hates him to death, Guan Zhuo just wants to hug this thick thigh!

Just after the first test, Guan Zhuo, who was sore and stinky, looked at his brother Ji with envy. They were all human. Ah, look at his unparalleled beauty! It's like seeing a cute and sweet sister!

Guan Zhuoke didn't dare to say such words, so he just thought about it in his heart. He fantasized about the scene where he was praised and praised after he passed the exam. His mouth was so beautiful that his saliva was dripping. Seeing her sister, her brows and eyes softened: "Why did you come here in person? Just wait at home."

"It's so boring at home." Linglong pouted and poured a cup of hot tea for Xie Ji, ignoring Guan Zhuo the whole time.

Guan Zhuo... Guan Zhuo is used to it for a long time. Anyway, as long as the brother and sister are together, each other's eyes are only for each other. That's not to look at others. He poured a cup of tea on his own, and finally felt in the mood I asked, "Brother Ji, how did you do in the test?"

"Instead of asking these questions, it's better to warm up the book and prepare for the next game." Xie Jing said calmly.

Guan Zhuo scratched his head: "I'm just curious."

Speaking of his knowledge, his knowledge is actually not top-notch. Although none of Mr. Ouyang's disciples can be as amazing and brilliant as Xie Ji, there are many more brilliant minds than Guan Zhuo, but they only pass the exam. Guan Zhuo, who has won the exam twice, has more luck in the exam than others. After all, an optimist like him is too rare. Guan Zhuo is the kind of person who can oversleep in tomorrow's exam this morning. Jane In a word, big heart.

And his luck in the exam is also very good, such as the rural exam. In fact, he couldn't take the exam originally, but he was lucky because he just re-memorized the exam topic the day before the exam... Although the ranking was impressive, it was hanging at the end. Head, but in the end also passed the exam, right?

This is another important reason why Guan Zhuo always sticks to Xie Ji, he thinks Xie Ji is his lucky star!

Anyway, I don't know where this superstitious idea came from. The most amazing thing is that Guan Zhuo also told his father, otherwise his father would not allow him to participate in the test this year. It's all thanks to Xie Ji The aura of a scholar is flamboyant, and the Guan family's father thinks that maybe that is the case, otherwise, why did his son take the exam for Xiucai for several years, but he only took the exam twice?

However, Guan Zhuo is still a bit overwhelmed by his own strength. He went to Beijing with him purely for the sake of learning from the gods. Otherwise, he would be reluctant to leave his daughter-in-law and children after he just got a daughter!

Yes, although Guan Zhuo has a brother Ji, he is eight years older than Xie Ji. He is twenty-seven this year. He has four sons. He gave birth to a daughter, but Guan Zhuo couldn't be too happy. Because of his admiration for Xie Ji's brother and sister, he wanted to name his girl Linglong, but Xie Ji rejected it!

Xie Ji glanced at Guan Zhuo, and didn't want to pay attention to this neurotic guy. He took a sip of tea and felt that the tea poured by his sister was delicious. As a result, Guan Zhuo began to daydream again, where to put it I have nothing to say: "Hey, Brother Ji, I heard that there is a custom of catching a son-in-law in the capital! Are you afraid?"

Xie Ji put down the teacup in her hand, and I don't understand how this guy knows so much gossip even though he is staying at home every day.

It's been a day or two without Xie Ji's attention anyway, Guan Zhuo naturally continued to say: "Look at you, brother Ji, you are so beautiful and talented, the most important thing is that you haven't married yet, you said Say you—what will you do when you get caught!"

Xie Ji ignored him.

Guan Zhuo laughs, in fact he has a little girl, ten years younger than him, seventeen this year, just the same age as a flower, but he has self-knowledge, and the idea of ​​​​making Brother Jie a brother-in-law is private I thought about it, but dared not take it to the table and say it.

Brother Ji, how do you say, he is not in the same world with them, including his younger sister, Guan Zhuo is actually very fortunate that he can meet them, and he is also very glad that the two brothers and sisters have good temper and did not drive him away. Zhuo himself blushed at his thick skin.

"I heard that those who caught the son-in-law under the list, it's useless for you to refuse, just tie you up and take you home to cook the raw rice - uuuuu!" Xie Ji covered Guan Zhuo's mouth. In the past, Xie Ji, who would never be angry no matter how he talked nonsense, gave him a warning look at this time. Guan Zhuo turned his head and saw his sister's big eyes, and immediately felt guilty. When Xie Ji let go, he was embarrassed Cough twice.

Just in time, Linglong asked: "What happens after the raw rice is cooked?"

Guan Zhuo suddenly coughed louder, looking like he was about to cough out all his internal organs.

Xie Ji gave Guan Zhuo a warning look again and patted her sister's head: "It's okay, don't listen to Guan Zhuo's words, what does he know, and he speaks vividly, as if he had been caught, who has such a bad vision?"

Linglong burst out laughing, and Guan Zhuo lay flat and laughed.

Then Linglong said: "Brother should be careful when the list is released. Let's let Changsheng see it, and my brother will not go down."

Changsheng is Xie Ji's book boy, especially clever.

Xie Ji nodded: "Okay."

Guan Zhuo secretly hates the injustice of life. Look at this brother Ji, his attitude towards his classmates and his younger sister are completely different! For so many years, Guan Zhuo has never seen Xie Ji speak so softly to others!

But...if he also had such a beautiful and well-behaved sister, he would definitely spoil her too.

After going back, the two of them took a bath, changed into clean clothes, ate a full meal, and slept with their heads covered. When they woke up the next day, Guan Zhuo felt that he was alive, but when he saw Xie Ji, he was still the same Taishan's appearance did not change before the collapse, as if such a severe examination was not torture for him at all. Guan Zhuo said that Brother Jie was awesome and he had to learn from Brother Jie.

There are obviously fewer people in the second test. In the third test, there are not many people left. There are about 900 people participating in the Spring Festival this year. The competition is quite fierce. Guangzong Yaozu, and the big-hearted Guan Zhuo was also brought to work hard, and if he was not serious, it would be absolutely impossible to rely on luck and immortal energy of learning gods.

After the exam, Xie Ji slept at home for a full day and night. The next day, he was in good spirits again. He couldn't see his nervousness or anxiety at all. At the same time, Linglong was also very calm. Guan Zhuo, but he was revived by Linglong, "Anyway, I came here with the idea of ​​earning a lot of money and not losing the list, so what are you thinking about?"

Xie Ji rubbed gluten with her sister at home because his sister wanted to eat it.

The slender and beautiful hands used to hold the pen were holding a ball of dough in the water basin and kneading.
