Plane Convenience Store

"Congratulations."

During the time before, Song Cheng's hard study and Lu Lu were all in his eyes.

In his opinion, Song Cheng's hard work is fully worthy of his fame as a scholar, and he has come to the end of all his hardships.

Scholars in ancient times were similar to modern college students, but they were incomparable to college students in terms of treatment and status.

At first, Song Cheng told him that his greatest ambition was to be a scholar, but this was not because his ambition was low, but that a scholar was already very good in the countryside.

Song Cheng's family background is not good, and regular customers of the convenience store know this.

His family has more than ten acres of land, but there is not much left after paying the tax to support his studies, so the family lives very hard.

And Song Cheng was admitted as a scholar, first of all, he didn't have to pay taxes on the ten acres of land in his family.

Secondly, even if Song Cheng doesn't want to farm the land, and has the reputation of a scholar, at worst he can still be a teacher in the future.

He can support himself by accepting a few students every year. When the time comes, he can marry another wife, and he can easily finish most of the people who plan to eat in the ground.

Of course, this was just Song Cheng's ideal at the beginning.

After being admitted as a scholar, his ambitions became even greater.

Since he has the ability to study, why doesn't he continue to take the entrance exam, take the exam, and do something that benefits the country and the people?

Song Cheng showed high spirits, and Lu Lu dared to ask: "Song Cheng, you have always said before that you want to take the exam for scholar, will you continue to take the exam?"

"Take the exam, why don't you take the exam." Song Cheng said with a smile: "At that time, my heart was not settled, so I didn't dare to think too much. Now that I have passed the exam, I can't help but want to go up. After all, who doesn't want to be a scholar? Woolen cloth?"

Song Cheng's words made Lu Lu understand that he wanted to be an official.

Indeed, the ancient "scholars, farmers, businessmen" did not do anything as good as being an official.

Regardless of social status or wealth, being an official is cheaper than other occupations.

And if Song Cheng really wanted to show his ambition, becoming an official must be his first choice.

Song Cheng has great ambitions, and Lu Lu is also sincerely happy for him.

After chatting with Lu Lu for a few words, and expressing his youthful spirit, Song Cheng talked about his future plans: "This time I ranked high in the exam, so I was admitted as a granary student. My Great Xia Dynasty treats scholars very well. It is important, so the granary students have a supply of six buckets of rice every month, which is enough for me to eat. And every year, the government will also give a subsidy of four taels of silver. With them, my family's situation can be better, just a few days later. I dare to give it a try in the provincial examination in [-]."

This is the first time Song Cheng talked about his family. He is usually studying, so it is not easy for Lu Lu to ask him.

Now that Song Cheng is having a lot of conversations, Lu Lu knows that he is the only son in his family, and his two older sisters got married a few years ago.

When it comes to his elder sister, Song Cheng feels a little regretful. If he can pass the exam early, his elder sister will be able to marry better. Unlike today, he can only marry a family who is not good at it.

Song Cheng's brows were filled with exhaustion. When Lu Lu asked, he found out that he came to see him not long after the exam.

As soon as this was mentioned, Song Cheng handed the wooden box in his hand to Lu Lu, and said gratefully: "During this period of time, it is really thanks to the help of the shop owner. I am still a poor scholar, I can't come up with anything good, I can only I’ll give you some food to try, I hope you won’t be disgusted.”

Lu Lu opened the wooden box in his hand face to face. Song Cheng was stunned, and Lu Lu realized that he had been hanging out with a group of Westerners recently, and he had forgotten the subtlety of the East.

It is really impolite to open a gift in front of others.

Fortunately, Song Cheng has also met other customers in the store, especially the vampire hunter who often robbed him of food. His poor appearance impressed him deeply, so he did not feel offended, but explained to Lu Lu with a smile. What is this.

"Shopkeeper, this is osmanthus cake, a kind of dessert in our place. I heard that Wuhezhai's osmanthus cake is delicious, so I bought some for you to try."

Now that they are all opened, Lu Lu is no longer polite.

He picked up a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and put it straight into his mouth.

As Song Cheng said, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake is soft and delicious, sweet and delicious.

"Thank you, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake is delicious, it cost you a lot."

Seeing that Lu Lu liked it, Song Cheng was also very happy.

It was not in vain that he spent half a tael of silver to buy sweet-scented osmanthus cakes at Wuhezhai. As long as the owner is happy with the food, it will be worth his money.

The sweet-scented osmanthus cake of Wuhezhai is well-known in the small town, but of course the price is also very expensive.

Song Cheng bought it for gift giving, so the box used to hold the sweet-scented osmanthus cake was carefully carved, making it look particularly tall.

If it's just him, even though he has the status of a 'scholar', he would be reluctant to eat such an expensive pastry for a while.

In particular, his family's financial power is controlled by his parents, and his tail was raised when he was just admitted to the scholar, and his father was so angry that he kicked him.

Therefore, when he bought it, he explained it to his parents in advance.

He told them that this box of sweet-scented osmanthus cake was for the 'big fairy' who had been helping him during this time.

Daxian's mana was obvious to both of them, so they easily believed what their son said, and repeatedly told him not to tell others about it.

Song Cheng responded while picking out a box of the most expensive osmanthus cake.

When spending money, he didn't feel bad, because this exam made him realize how much the shopkeeper helped him during this time.

Before the exam, he had heard a little about it.

The exam will take several days in a row, and the environment of the exam is quite harsh.

At first, he kept his ears shut and only read books of sages and sages, thinking that he was a farmer, a child who was used to hardship, and it would be no problem to deal with a mere examination room.

But when it came to the real exam, he watched several exams being sent down due to illness or mental breakdown, and he lost the chance to take the exam. It was a pity, and only then did he realize how much the gifts he received some time ago had helped him.

I have to admit that with sufficient food, his physique has become much stronger.

And the sufficient light at those few hours every night also allows him to study with peace of mind. The more he learns, the more confidence he has in his heart.

Therefore, even with the pressure of the exam, his mentality has always remained stable.

Although it was his first time to play, he could guarantee that he had performed to the best of his ability, so that he could rank among the best in the government examination and be selected as a scholar in one fell swoop.

He expressed his gratitude to Lu Lu again and again. Seeing the continuous sound of firecrackers outside the convenience store, Song Cheng had an idea and asked Lu Lu if it was Chinese New Year here.

After getting Lu Lu's affirmative answer, Song Cheng volunteered to help Lu Lu write a couplet.

I haven't seen you for a while, and Song Cheng's handwriting has also improved significantly. Lu Lu thanked Song Cheng for his pen and ink, and put away the couplets given to him by Zhen*xiucai, and planned to post the couplets outside the convenience store tomorrow morning. Take it or not, as long as you are happy.

After finishing the couplets and chatting for a while, Song Cheng got up to leave.

After being admitted as a scholar, he couldn't let it go. Instead, he had to work harder to be admitted to Juren.

Recently, he has been busy with family affairs, so he slackened his studies.

But when he finished his chores, he had to pick up the books again.It's just that in the future, he may not come to the convenience store often.

He was also very embarrassed to eat and drink in convenience stores many times before.

Now that he has the conditions, his self-esteem will naturally not allow him to do such a thing again.

But before he left, he told Lu Lu that even if he didn't come to study, he would often visit the store when he was free.

It's getting late after seeing off Song Cheng.

Lu Lu heard that the sound of firecrackers outside had subsided, so he quickly put up a sign to rest, and fell asleep until the next morning.

Early in the morning, he got up to wash up, and then hurriedly hung Song Cheng's couplet at the door of the convenience store.

When he was hanging the couplets, an old man who knew calligraphy passed by the door.

The old man was full of praise for the couplet. He thought it was written by Lu Lu, so he got close to him and asked him to write one for himself.

However, how could Lu Lu find someone who wrote couplets, the pen and ink of an ancient scholar, even if the uncle could afford the retouching fee, he didn't have time to find someone, so he dealt with the uncle in a good manner, and then he got peace.

After hanging up the couplets, Lu Lu had a simple meal, then went to the desk and started his painting routine.

During the few days of Chinese New Year, because he went home, he dropped his paintbrush and wasted for a while.

Now that he has free time, he will naturally pick it up again.

Just like Song Cheng worked hard to study, painting skills also need constant practice.No matter what skills, if you don't use them for a long time, they will gradually become obsolete, and water will wear through stones.

Turning on the computer, Lu Lu first admired his previous paintings.

The convenience store at night has brought him infinite inspiration. Some things are not easy to publish when they are drawn, so he keeps them for himself.

When he is not taking orders, he just draws what he likes for self-entertainment.

There is a painting about Lilliputian. A female mage bought Sprite in the store that day, and it was said that she would ship it back to celebrate the festival.

Although he didn't have the chance to see their world, but with his imagination, he still drew a picture of little people drinking around Sprite.

Rows of small people in mage robes drinking drinks around Sprite cans are very inappropriate, including several other pictures, such as "ancient scholar sitting on the table reading the Four Books and Five Classics, and holding a hamburger", if it is unknown People who know the truth will definitely scold him for being blind.

Although Lu Lu knew that his paintings were all real, it was impossible to tell others about this kind of thing, so he took these paintings as a diary, and drew one every time he met interested guests.

He didn't intend to show it to anyone other than himself, so he didn't care about privacy.

Over time, he drew more and more paintings about convenience stores.If they were all printed out, they would surely fill a file folder, which is quite a lot.

Scanned a certain painting of 'a bearded man drinking water from Laoshan white flowers, snakes and grasses in the desert', and a mixed-and-match man wrestling with a giant bear and holding a thermos in his hand.

After a little thought, Lu Lu decided what to draw today.

Just now, the new girl in the shop had impressed him deeply.

The girl who can shed jewel tears is a very good material in itself.

In particular, the girl's face value is quite high, and the clothes she wears are also very fashionable, saving him the trouble of adding beautification filters, it must be quite easy and pleasant to draw.

The author has something to say: If the protagonist’s job is to write web articles, the plot would probably be like this——

The protagonist classmate processed the things he saw every night and put them on the Internet, saving even the effort of thinking about the material, and suddenly envied how the protagonist broke...
