Poor Lady Chapter 46: Split

Back in the room, Qi Surong saw Gu Jinyun slipped in again at some point, and was sitting by the window looking at her.

"Why are you here?" Qi Surong walked over with a smile.

"Crystal lotus seed soup." Gu Jinyun pushed the porcelain cup on the tea table.

"Thank you." Qi Surong opened the lid, picked up a spoon and took a spoonful, and was about to put it in his mouth. Seeing Gu Jinyun staring at her intently, he handed the spoon to his mouth, "Come on, open your mouth."

Gu Jinyun opened his mouth to eat, and continued to look at her.

"How does it taste?" Qi Surong also took a sip, not caring that the two shared a spoon.

"Naturally it's good." Her eyes fell on her lips unconsciously, and she was slightly lost in thought.

"Yeah." Qi Surong ate the sweet lotus seed soup with a satisfied face.

"You went to Yingshu Pavilion today." Gu Jinyun said suddenly.

"Yes, I want to copy a few books and read them back." Qi Surong replied casually.

"I met Feng Zhan."

Qi Surong glanced at him: "Yeah, what's the matter?"

"I don't like him getting too close to you."

"Huh?" Qi Surong asked strangely, "Why?"

"He looks at you wrongly."

"What's wrong?"

"Like me."

Qi Surong was taken aback for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at Gu Jinyun, and saw that his eyes were focused and his veins were full of affection. She looked away with a reddish face, and said, "Nonsense, how does it look like you? Since Feng Zhan returned to Beijing, I have only seen him as 'Zhuo Fan', how could he look at a boy with such eyes? "

"Maybe there is a habit of breaking sleeves." Gu Jinyun speculated darkly.

Qi Surong pointed at him and said with a smile: "You will also hurt others like this? Has he offended you before?"

"No." Gu Jinyun denied with a cold face.

Qi Surong continued to drink her lotus seed soup, then suddenly raised her head and asked: "Are you just jealous?"

"Yes." He admitted firmly.

"Hee hee." Qi Surong pursed his lips and smiled, then took another spoonful and handed it to his mouth, coaxing, "Come on, sweeten it, it won't be sour."

Gu Jinyun opened his mouth and said, "It's still sour."

"Then take another bite."

"Still sour."

"Again."

"Still sour."

Seeing the bottom of a cup of lotus seed soup, Gu Jinyun was still sour.

Qi Surong suddenly jumped over the coffee table, raised her head and kissed him on the lips, and asked softly, "Are you still sour?"

Gu Jinyun's eyes were shining, he held the back of her head, and kissed her back affectionately.

"It's only been three months." Gu Jinyun said in a low voice, "In three months, you will be my wife."

Qi Surong looked at him quietly.

"I don't like the look in your eyes now." Gu Jinyun reached out and stroked the corners of her eyes lightly, "There are too many things hidden."

"Jin Yun, I'm very scared." Qi Surong said suppressedly.

"Afraid of what?"

"I am afraid that I will make a mistake, and I am afraid that I will not be able to help the people around me avoid disaster in the end."

"Rong'er, there is no one in the world who is immune to mistakes." Gu Jinyun took her into his arms and said softly, "You are not alone, you still have me. Even if you want to make mistakes, I will accompany you."

"What if the price of making a mistake is the destruction of the family?"

Gu Jinyun was silent for a while, and said: "There used to be a big river in my hometown, which blocked the way for the villagers to enter the city. The villagers often have to take a long detour to enter the city. Half of the fertile land was submerged. So someone proposed to build a bridge over the river and build embankments beside the river.”

"What happened later? Did you fix it?"

"No." Gu Jinyun continued, "The river is very wide and fast-moving. It takes a lot of money to build bridge embankments. The villagers are poor and cannot afford the money. But this river is always a hidden danger to the village. Ignore it. Finally, someone figured out a way."

"How?"

"He asked the villagers to dig tributaries on both sides of the big river, not one or two, but dozens of them, bypassing the village, the fields, and the mountains, criss-crossing like a net. Then, they approached the big river Stone bridges were erected on the tributaries of the river, and it took nearly a year to build a winding stone bridge on the river. This not only solved the frequent floods that have occurred year after year, but also It connects the two sides of the river and builds a shortcut to the town for the villagers.”

"Excellent." Qi Surong praised.

"The great river is turbulent, like an unshakable giant, but when it is separated into several tributaries, it is no longer an unbridgeable gap."

Qi Surong had a clear mind and vaguely understood what he meant.

"Ronger," Gu Jinyun raised her chin and said seriously, "If mistakes are inevitable, then try to turn one big mistake into several small mistakes, and then use your own strength to make these small mistakes one by one. It becomes invisible. If one person can't do it, then unite everyone. Your family, your friends, and me will support you unconditionally."

Qi Surong hugged his waist tightly, a warm current flowed through his heart, full of emotion.

"It's the first time...to hear you talk so much." She choked up.

"If you don't talk, you will become sick with worry."

"How could I become sick from worry?" Qi Surong muttered dissatisfiedly.

"I said earlier that you are too thoughtful. You are young and don't know how to relax yourself."

"Oh? Then you know?" Qi Surong looked up at him and asked with a smile, "Teach me how?"

Gu Jinyun thought for a while, then hesitated and said, "Shopping?"

"It's boring." Qi Surong shook his head.

"Outing?"

"I have visited all the places of interest near the capital."

"Fishing?"

"Don't like it."

"..." Gu Jinyun was silent. As it turned out, he wasn't one to relax, either.

"Is there any more?" Qi Surong said with a grin. I was very happy to see him in trouble.

"Also," Gu Jinyun looked at him deeply, and said, "have a baby with Gu Jinyun."

"..." Qi Surong's expression changed slightly, he withdrew from his embrace, and turned his back.

"What's wrong?" Gu Jinyun frowned.

"It's okay." Qi Surong's face turned pale, and his heart ached.

"Did I say the wrong thing?" Gu Jinyun turned her around.

Qi Surong shook his head, took a deep breath, and said with a smile, "I'm really fine, just a little tired."

Gu Jinyun looked at her for a while, and said, "Okay, I'll go back first, you should have a good rest."

"Yeah." Qi Surong nodded obediently.

Gu Jinyun leaned over and kissed her on the forehead, then jumped out of the window.

After waiting for him to leave, Qi Surong went straight into the room and sat weakly by the bed.

Baby? She clutched her stomach, with a look of pain on her face. There was once a life conceived in her womb, but she didn't keep it.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." She had lost too much in her last life, and she must never let the tragedy happen again in this life. Qi Surong raised her head slowly, with determination in her tearful eyes.

A few days later, the examination officially began. The content of the exam is exactly as Qi Surong said, abandoning poetry and poetry, and focusing on classics and theory.

While Ji Yun and the others were horrified, they were also secretly rejoicing. They had an in-depth discussion with their husband in the light of the current situation, and even selected a few topics for policy discussion.

Of Xu Chen's three students, Ji Yun is the best at strategizing, Huang Zheng is the second, and Sun Junxuan is the weakest. This topic happened to be one that Sun Junxuan had done in the past few days, and the husband also gave him comments and supplements. What was originally a second-class policy theory has become an upper-middle class. He was overjoyed and answered directly with this policy theory.

The general examination was over, and the examinees walked out of the tribute courtyard in twos and threes, some with gloomy expressions, and some with happy faces.

The three of Ji Yun met and asked each other about their exam status.

Sun Junxuan said in a low voice: "If Zhuo Fan hadn't reminded me, I would have died this time."

Huang Zheng smiled and said: "There are three policy theories, how many did you answer?"

"Two articles." Sun Junxuan said distressedly, "I don't know how to get the third article right, so it will probably be rated as inferior."

"Don't worry, let nature take its course." Huang Zheng patted him on the shoulder with a smile.

Ji Yun looked around and asked, "Have you seen Zhuo Fan?"

Sun and Huang looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

"I don't know which examination room he is in, but I haven't seen him." Sun Junxuan waved his hand.

"Go back and ask and you will know."

"You asked me how I did in the exam?" In the bookstore, Qi Surong replied with a smile, "I didn't take the exam at all."

"What?" The three of them were shocked at the same time. I thought that he had the ability to do divination, so he could pass the exam in one fell swoop, but he didn't take the exam at all.

"Why don't you take the exam?" Sun Junxuan asked, "Even if you are not a candidate, as long as you ask a famous adult to recommend you, you can still take the exam?"

"I have no intention of being an official." Qi Surong said calmly while copying the book, "Compared to being an official, I prefer to be a hermit with idle clouds and wild cranes."

"Hermit?" Sun Junxuan yelled strangely, "How old are you? Do you want to be a hermit?"

Which boy is not young and frivolous, with lofty ambitions? This one in front of me has the desire to hide from the world at a young age, which is really weird.

Huang Zheng first smiled and said: "Brother Zhuo is really different, and his heart is very free and easy. After thirty years, I also want to live in seclusion in the mountains and live leisurely. How about living next to you?"

"You guys really think far enough." Sun Junxuan patted his forehead.

"It's a pity." Ji Yun said, "If junior Zhuo takes the exam, maybe the four of us can get on the list at the same time."

"That's right!" Sun Junxuan clapped his hands and said, "Then our Yingshu Pavilion is going to make a big splash. All five of Mr.'s students are on the list. Hahaha, just thinking about it makes people happy."

"It's enough to have you." Qi Surong looked at the three of them with a deep smile.

There was a feeling in Ji Yun's heart that he seemed to be seen through. He didn't really believe in the theory of numerology and numerology that Zhuo Fan said before, but after the test, he began to believe it a little bit. The boy in front of him has a pair of special eyes. Whenever "he" stares at others intently, he always seems to be able to see something. He didn't like this feeling very much, but he didn't feel disgusted either.

Five days later, the examination results will be announced.

Ji Yun's high school prospect, Huang Zheng ranked seventh, and Sun Junxuan ranked thirteen.
