Uncle Guo

Chun Wei released the list, and Lin Mingcheng was on the list. Although he did not enter the first class, he did well in the exam. Now, like Liang Xuanchen, he is also a master.

According to the usual practice, the candidates who passed the examination can go to the Imperial College to continue their studies and wait for the next exam, or they can go to the Ministry of Officials to lead the staff and become a nine-rank sesame official in the local government.

Lin Mingcheng asked Liang Xuanchen what he meant, Liang Xuanchen didn't bluntly say what to do, but analyzed the pros and cons for each of them.

Lin Mingcheng felt that if he went to the Guozijian, firstly, the widowed mother at home would have no one to take care of him, and secondly, he would have to continue to live in the Liang Mansion under the fence without a living. Even though the Liang family did not drive him away, he was not an ordinary clean-up man. He was the best friend of the third son of Liang. In any case, I don't have the shame to rely on it for another three to five years.

In fact, Liang Xuanchen didn't like living at home either. Although his parents thought he was blind and no longer made things difficult for him, he couldn't stand being treated like a blind trash at home anyway.Together, the two decided that Lin Mingcheng simply went to the Ministry of Officials to get an errand, and went to be a county magistrate in the local area. From then on, he picked chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and saw Nanshan leisurely, and his days were pleasant.

So the two bought some things in the capital, and the Ministry of Officials soon released the official and asked Lin Mingcheng to go to a valley in Guangxi to be the county magistrate.The county magistrate is the deputy of the county magistrate, and he is really a nine-rank sesame official, but the two don't care about it.

Liang Xuanchen was about to say goodbye to his parents, and followed Lin Mingcheng to Guangxi.

After hearing this, Liang Yuncheng sarcastically said: "Are you marrying a chicken and following the chicken, marrying a dog and following the dog?"

However, he still overestimated Liang Xuanchen's face, because Liang Xuanchen nodded of course: "I hope my parents will be happy."

Liang Yuncheng jumped up, and Dong Taijun quickly held him down. "Guangxi's mountains are high and the roads are far away. After you go, can you still see them in the future?"

"Mingcheng may not be the county magistrate for the rest of his life in Guangxi. It is possible to transfer to other places in the future, or even return to the capital. If there is a chance, I will always come back to visit my parents." Liang Xuanchen said in a low voice, "There is also a concubine brother Qing Yu in the family, and Ah Yuan is a queen, so he can take care of his parents on his behalf. Please forgive the child for being unfilial."

Liang Yuncheng didn't want to say anything about being unfilial and having no descendants. This wasn't the first time Liang Xuanchen left home. In comparison, this was the most peaceful time for each other.

"Prepare some money for him, and pretend that this son has never been born." Liang Yuncheng walked away in a huff.

Dong Taijun said: "Don't pay attention to him, he is just stubborn."

Lin Mingcheng couldn't bear it, "There is a way that the parents are here, and they don't travel far. It is only natural to take care of the parents at home. The third master is indeed unfilial."

Liang Xuanchen said: "I think it's better to stay at home. It's better for everyone to see. Although Qing Yu is a concubine, she is smart and smart. She will grow up in a few years. I can rest assured that he will serve my parents at home. Guangxi Beautiful mountains and clear waters, located on the coast of the South China Sea, I heard that the seasons are like spring, warm and comfortable, my parents are old, it would be great to go with me, but I see that my father is not happy."

Dong Taijun nodded, "I originally wanted to go with you, but your father is not allowed to be left here alone. It is said that young couples come to accompany each other, and it is not appropriate for an old woman to follow you to Guangxi. So... ...that's the way it is."

Liang Xuanchen and Lin Mingcheng loaded the salutes into the carriage, and brought along the ground, air, water, and air servants, and Feng Qi and his wife went on the road together.Originally, Liang Xuanchen really didn't want to take Fengqi and his wife with him, but the ground, air, water, and air are really not suitable for work. Those loyal servants who go through fire and water for their master's family in the books are probably only found in romances and legends. Anyway, Liang Xuanchen did not have this blessing.Laziness and incompetence are all for nothing, Fengqi and his wife are hardworking and loyal, no matter how bad they are, they are better than that.

Yu Anyi heard that the third master of the Liang family was going to go to Guangxi with Lin Mingcheng, and kept clamoring to go together. Before he said that his master was in Miao Jiang, he was not talking nonsense. As a family of doctors, he yearned for poison and all kinds of miraculous medicines there.Moreover, Liang Xuanchen's eyes still need to be treated, since he has boasted about Haikou, how can he give up halfway, Mr. Liang is going to Guangxi, so he will follow until his eyes are healed.

Lin Mingcheng was very moved, but Liang Xuanchen exposed him, "Did you fail the entrance examination for the Tai Hospital?"

Yu Anyi couldn't hold back his face, "What I'm saying is that those exams are too rigid. My father always said that I'm a genius, and in the future my achievements should be higher than those of my father and brother."

"That still didn't pass the test."

Yu Anyi said: "I'm only 17 years old. It's better to go out to travel first-hand and see intractable diseases than to treat headaches and brain fevers for the emperor's relatives in the imperial hospital. And my father also agreed. And my ambition is not As an errand in the Imperial Hospital, I want to follow in the footsteps of Hua Tuo Bian Que and become a miracle doctor among the people."

Liang Xuanchen mocked: "You are only seventeen? Didn't Gu Changfeng say you are 27?"

Yu Anyi said: "He actually told you that I'm 27? Do you think I look like a 27-year-old uncle?"

This time Liang Xuanchen was so poisoned that his expression changed. Lin Mingcheng remembered that he happened to be 27 this year.He hurried forward to smooth things over, "Okay, okay, since Doctor Xiao Yu said he would go with us, there is a shortage of doctors and doctors in the valleys of Guangxi. He will not only treat your eyes, but also benefit others."

"At the age of 17, he is not even a charlatan, but a liar!" Liang Xuanchen spat.

Yu Anyi became unhappy, "How can I say that I am also from a medical family, and when it comes to curing diseases and saving lives, I am better than many doctors who sit in the office and open clinics."

"However, I still haven't passed the selection exam of the Taiyuan Hospital." Liang Xuanchen prodded him.

The two almost quarreled again.

Arguments come from quarrels, and Yu Anyi has to follow whatever they say. That being the case, it would be good to have someone on the road who can cure a headache and brain fever. A quack doctor is also a doctor, especially this one who was unsuccessful in the imperial hospital.

A group of people planned to go to Hubei to pick up Lin Mingcheng's widowed mother, and then headed west and south all the way. It was estimated that they would go to Lingshan in Guangxi after walking the road of mountains and rivers for more than three months.

Entering the territory of Hubei, Liang Xuanchen felt very uneasy, because this was the first time in his life that he had to formally meet his beloved mother, and they would spend a long time together day and night in the future.

Although he had also met the little prince's own father before——Emperor □□□, and Gu Changfeng's parents, but those were not counted. They all watched him grow up. In Yu private school, the elders are very clear about flirting with a few classmates.Even if Old Master Gu knew that he had slept with Gu Er, and he didn't chase him with a knife, in those few days, when they met for tea at most, there was a tacit embarrassment on each other's faces.

As for Lin Mingcheng's widowed mother, Liang Xuanchen really had no idea.

"My mother has a gentle temperament. She was originally the youngest daughter of a peasant family. Although she couldn't read, she admired scholars very much. My father grew up in a poor family and was a concubine. He couldn't marry a daughter-in-law when he was in his twenties. He was married by a matchmaker. My mother. The two have been together for many years, and they treat each other like a guest. It’s just that when I was five years old, my father died of illness and the family borrowed money to survive. I finally read the book. The teacher in our private school saw that I was talented, so he waived my tuition."

Liang Xuanchen nodded again and again, "This time I'm going back to my hometown, you should go to thank your master."

"That's natural."

When the group arrived at Lin Mingcheng's hometown, they saw Shangbai families in the flat valleys between mountains and villages, which counted as the county seat.Lin Mingcheng's home is not yet in the county town, but in front of the more remote mountains, the few acres of Susukida in the family are all worked by Lin's mother alone. When the farming season is busy, Lin Mingcheng also has to go to the field to work with his mother.

Seeing apricots, plums and peaches growing on the tree, Di Kong and Shui Kong were very happy. They plucked them and ate them, and Liang Xuanchen also got a bunch.

Lin Mingcheng was also a little nervous, "I was poor since I was a child, and when Mr. Liang came to the humble house, he would be disgusted by the comparison with the Liang Mansion in the capital."

Liang Xuanchen said: "It's okay, I'm blind anyway."

Lin Mingcheng burst out laughing.

Liang Xuanchen said again: "It's good to have peaches and plums to eat. Speaking of it, I think about the past. I think that I occupied a spring in the northwest, and tied it with earth, stone, rotten wood, reeds, sorghum and wormwood, and it was an inn. There was only one table in the room. There is nothing else about a chair, even the signboard of the inn was snatched, pulled up with fabric, and I wrote on it with a pen."

Lin Mingcheng said: "Aren't you afraid that the rain will wash away the words?"

"There is no rain all year round, and the most precious thing is water. I planted a small vegetable field, and the bandits dug it all up once."

Everyone was amazed.

When they arrived at the gate, Lin's mother was not at home, and the servants hurriedly unloaded the part of the salute that came along the way. The mountains were high and the road was far away. When they reached the county town, the carriage would not be able to pass. Most of the salutes were temporarily stored in the inn. It is under the care of the Fonzi couple.

Lin Mingcheng opened the door first, but the door was never locked, and the house was empty anyway, so there was nothing to steal.

After welcoming Liang Xuanchen into the house and settling him down, Shuikong stared at the stove in a daze, wondering if such a simple stove could boil water, but the high-quality Longjing tea was brought over, but there was not even a decent teacup at home.

Lin Mingcheng went out to call his mother who was working in the field. Hearing that there were distinguished guests at home, Lin's mother hurriedly washed off the mud all over her body in the stream.

"Come from the capital? What kind of distinguished guest? Oh, my family is so poor, how dare you let him come?" Mother Lin kept complaining.

Lin Mingcheng then said that he was going to take office in Lingshan, Guangxi in the near future.

"Are you in high school?" Mother Lin said happily.

Lin Mingcheng looked embarrassed, "It's not the champion, and there are no people from the county to celebrate with drums and gongs."

Lin's mother said: "I remember that a few years ago, someone in the county won the election, and they also beat gongs and drums."

Lin Mingcheng said: "That's the son of the landlord in the county school. Who will beat the gongs and drums for people like us? Tomorrow, Mr. Liang and I will go to Mr. Liang's house to give gifts and thank you, and then we will set off for Lingshan. Mother, you Come with me."

"The crops in this field have not been harvested, so they don't want it?"

"I can't miss my appointment because of the harvest of these few acres of Susukida."

Mother Lin said again: "If I become an official, will I be able to enjoy happiness in the future?"

Lin Mingcheng smiled wryly, "I'm afraid it will be difficult. The county magistrate's salary is limited, probably only enough to support me alone. When we get there, we still need to open up some wasteland to grow vegetables and raise chickens to survive."

Mother Lin nodded, "It is said that the magistrate will be cleared for three years, and one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver. My son, you can't be a corrupt official. You must do something for the people of Lingshan."

"Mother's teachings, Mingcheng always keep in mind, dare not forget each other."

Mother Lin said as she walked, "That's not right, why did that distinguished guest from the capital follow you to our house, and why did he follow you to Guangxi?"

Lin Mingcheng knew that he couldn't tell the truth, so he had already thought up an excuse, "He has traveled all over the world, but he hasn't been to Guangxi yet. It just so happens that we hit it off because he is a bosom friend, and he is always a chic and romantic person, so he came as soon as he said it. For the scientific research in the capital, I can't even afford to stay in an inn, and it all depends on his care, so if he wants to come, I will naturally entertain him well."

"That's it, that's it! Don't neglect it."

"There is also a child from a noble family who came from the imperial hospital. He wanted to go to Guangxi to taste the herbs, so he also came along."

Lin's mother was amazed, "People in this capital are so chic, do they just leave?"

Lin Mingcheng said: "Of course there are all kinds of people. He is respected by others and has the same interests as me. The third son of Liang was killed by a traitor not long ago and lost his eyesight. I want more immortal grasses and elixir in Guangxi, or If he goes with me there to find good medicine and heal his eyes, it will not be a waste of traveling thousands of miles."

"Yes yes yes!" Mother Lin nodded again and again, thinking that this distinguished guest from the capital was going to Guangxi to seek medicine and medical treatment. After all, he even brought out people from the Imperial Hospital.

Lin Mingcheng also briefly talked about Liang Xuanchen's situation. He was talking about the Liang family full of heroes, King Yan stationed in Yangzhou to attack Jinling, Liang Xuanchen ran around to offer advice to King Yan, when the door creaked, someone came out of the house.
