After Xiao Fubao's life was stolen, she became the favorite of the Beijing group
Chapter 49 Falling ill
Gu Mingda didn't answer, but hid behind with the test paper.
The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and wanted to grab Gu Mingda, but he missed the golden time. Two patrol sergeants ran over and held him down.
"Be honest! You can't pass the exam and you still want to hurt others!" One of the sergeants scolded.
The other sergeant looked at Gu Mingda with an inquiring look.
Gu Mingda waved his hand and said, "It's okay, my test paper is fine."
The sergeant nodded at him, and then dragged the middle-aged man to the other end of the examination room.
The examination room environment was very depressing, and the air seemed to be stagnant. Gu Mingda looked outside. The sky that was cloudless before had now turned gray. After eating the pancakes in a few bites, he began to copy.
After blowing the ink dry, Gu Mingda handed in the test paper on the spot without hesitation for a second.
He saw the test paper being safely delivered by the sergeants, and after the paper was sealed and the name was covered, his heart finally settled down.
Under the guidance of the police, he left the examination room with his basket.
He was still cautious on the way home. There were still occasional accidents, but none of them happened to him. When he finally entered the rented house, he just felt relieved when he heard the sound of raindrops coming from under the eaves.
An unexpected rain fell so suddenly.
Zhang Yunniang looked anxious: "Husband, are you wet?"
Gu Mingda smiled and shook his head.
Zhang Yunniang breathed a sigh of relief and asked about what happened during the exam today. When she learned that there were so many accidents, her heart was tightened again.
"It's okay, it's all over. I'm back well, right?" Gu Mingda said softly.
When the other families in the yard saw the rain, they all went out with umbrellas to pick up their own candidates.
Only Xiao Cai, who was now sleeping in the house while her husband was away, never heard the sound of rain at all.
Little Cai has always loved to be lazy. If not, she would never have done such a great thing as pushing all the work to her five-year-old adopted daughter.
When she woke up from her deep sleep, the other scholars who were taking the exam in the house had been picked up by their families.
The light rain had turned into a heavy downpour. The whole sky was dark. All she could see was rain. She couldn't even see the road clearly.
Little Cai hurriedly took out an umbrella and was about to go out. She heard Mrs. Qi, who lived next door, sighing:
"Fortunately, I left early to pick you up. Otherwise, in such a heavy rain, we might both be trapped there. Drink this bowl of ginger soup quickly to drive away the cold."
Qi Tongsheng smiled and agreed.
Madam Qi looked at Xiao Cai again, a little surprised, and said, "Madam Zhang, are you going to pick someone up now? It's raining so hard, your umbrella will be broken when you go back. Wait a little longer, and go out when the rain is lighter."
Xiao Cai responded awkwardly. She was so panicked at this moment. Zhang Guangzong was a person with explosive temper. It was raining so hard, and she overslept and didn't go to pick someone up. She didn't know how he would deal with her when she went back.
She kept hoping that the rain would be lighter.
But it seemed that God didn't hear her prayers. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, so heavy that it was extremely difficult to walk from the bedroom through the yard to the kitchen.
Autumn rain is cold, and now it's close to winter. Just standing under the eaves, you can feel the cold air coming straight into your body.
Xiao Cai was so cold that she put on an extra coat and didn't dare to stand on the eaves. She hid in the house, anxiously circling around the house, occasionally opening the window to look outside, but the rain didn't show any signs of decreasing.
Zhang Guangzong was sitting in a teahouse outside the examination room, watching the tea in front of him, which had already lost its heat, and he cursed Xiao Cai countless times in his heart.
"Waiter, add some more hot water to my pot." Zhang Guangzong said to the waiter.
After the waiter reluctantly added some hot water to the teapot, he asked, "Sir, just hot water? We also have hot food in our store, would you like to order one?"
Zhang Guangzong shook his head.
He didn't have much money on him, and he was expecting Xiao Cai to pick him up. Now he waited and waited, and the rain was getting heavier, but there was no sign of anyone. Zhang Guangzong had taken the exam for a whole day, and he only had a casual bite at noon, and he was already hungry.
The teahouse near the examination room was originally more expensive than other places, and now it was pouring rain outside. In this extreme weather, the price went up again.
Tea that sold for five cents a pot in other places in the city was sold directly for thirty cents in this teahouse today.
A pot of hot water, plus a few slices of coarse tea, sold at this price is really like robbery.
Tea is so expensive, Zhang Guangzong can imagine what a sky-high price this hot food will sell for.
"Sir, your noodles are ready!" The waiter smiled and sent a bowl of hot noodles to the guests at the next table.
Zhang Guangzong held his stomach and drank water mouthful by mouthful. He looked at others eating hot food with a comfortable look on their faces, and he was so envious.
The curtain at the door was lifted, and a gust of cold wind blew in.
Zhang Guangzong was stimulated to chill all over and couldn't help sneezing.
"Forget it, I'm suffering here, and others don't know how to enjoy themselves! I don't care!"
Zhang Guangzong comforted himself like this, and then he looked at the waiter: "Give me a bowl of noodles."
The waiter smiled at him rarely and asked: "Sir, a bowl of noodles with eggs and meat is 60 cents, I'll ask the kitchen to make it for you right away."
Zhang Guangzong's eyes widened when he heard this.
Normally, a bowl of noodles like this would cost at most twenty or sixty cents. Isn't this robbery?
Zhang Guangzong glanced at the teahouse full of people, and finally held back from saying what was in his mind, and asked: "Waiter, do you have vegetarian noodles?"
The waiter's smile faded a little, and he said: "Vegetarian noodles are 30 cents a bowl, do you want any?"
Zhang Guangzong was about to nod, but the waiter suddenly said: "You look like a student who is taking the exam, why do you eat so simply? There is a second exam in a few days. It's raining so hard today, don't you eat something good to replenish your body?"
Zhang Guangzong cares about himself the most. He couldn't help feeling sorry for himself when he heard this. He gritted his teeth and said: "You are right, I want a bowl of meat noodles with an egg!"
The waiter grinned immediately after hearing this, and thanked the rain in his heart. Now most of the customers in the store are scholars who are taking the exam. With this speech, he doesn't know how many bowls of meat noodles he will sell, and his own teahouse will make a lot of money tonight.
After eating a bowl of meat noodles, Zhang Guangzong felt warm all over, and his resentment towards Xiao Cai was somewhat reduced.
After he had enough food and clothing, he continued to sit in the teahouse and wait for the rain to stop. He couldn't help but think about what happened in the morning.
Now thinking back, he felt that his calculation was very clever, but it was a pity that he entered the examination room too early and didn't have the opportunity to see Gu Mingda's expression. He couldn't help thinking, Gu Mingda always thinks he is smart, what kind of expression will he have when he knows that he is dragged down by his companions who carry "cheats".
As for whether the cheat sheet will ruin the life of an innocent person, Zhang Guangzong doesn't care.
Zhang Guangzong thought that his reputation in his hometown was so bad during this period, and he didn't know how much effort he had spent before someone was willing to vouch for him. He felt that everything was caused by Gu Mingda harming him!
In his opinion, those who are willing to vouch for Gu Mingda are all enemies!
When the waiter passed by Zhang Guangzong while collecting the bowls, he frowned slightly and thought that this customer was really strange. He couldn't go home in such heavy rain, so why was he still smiling so happily!
The rain outside still didn't stop. It was late at night. The teahouse had already closed. A few guests left in the rain, but there were still many guests who couldn't leave.
The teahouse didn't drive people out, but kept the door open. It was inevitable to collect some bribes.
Zhang Guangzong gritted his teeth and paid another sum of money. Like everyone else, he supported himself and sat on the chair.
It was a cold night.
The sky was still gray the next day.
But the good news was that the rain finally stopped.
All the guests in the teahouse got up and left. Most of them had a weak step and looked not optimistic.
Zhang Guangzong only felt dizzy. He no longer had the joy of success. He was looking forward to going home early, falling on the bed, and sleeping comfortably.
On the way, he happened to meet Xiao Cai who came to find him.
Xiao Cai looked at him evasively.
Zhang Guangzong glared at her, with a thousand things to say in his heart, but after a night of hard work, he was exhausted and had no energy to curse.
Xiao Cai helped him back to the house, and he couldn't wait to jump on the bed as soon as he entered the door.
"Husband, I'll go cook for you, but I don't have any money..." Xiao Cai said carefully.
As soon as Zhang Guangzong touched the pillow, he snored heavily after a while, and he couldn't hear what Xiao Cai said.
Xiao Cai pushed him gently, but there was no movement. Looking carefully, she saw that Zhang Guang's cheeks were red and he was unconscious.
A quarter of an hour later.
Suddenly, a woman's cry came from outside the Gu family's house.
"Sister, brother-in-law! We are relatives. I am a woman and don't know anyone else in the city. My husband is so sick, you must help me!" Xiao Cai shouted hoarsely.
