Village Flowers and Female Scholars

The next day, Zhuang Xie and Cai Chu went to the Taohua Village next door to look for Mrs. Zhao.

When we first met, Mrs. Zhao stared at Zhuang Wan for a while and said, "This girl looks very kind..."

After speaking, he shook his head and said: "But that person is long gone, but there are still people who look so similar to her in the world."

Zhuang Wan replied: "Student's face is generally a public face, and it is not surprising that it looks similar to other people. However, there are so many people in the world, and there are so many similar people. In the early years, a classmate of the student went to the state. In the provincial examination, I met a person who looked similar to him, and everyone thought they were twins, but who knew that the two had no connection in their ancestors."

Master Zhao stroked his beard and said with a smile: "This face is not ordinary at all, cough—so you are a female scholar from Shangyan, the only female scholar in our county. I have heard about it for a long time, but I just saw it today."

Zhuang Wan smiled modestly, and Cai Chu hurriedly explained his intentions.

Master Zhao was surprised and said: "I just said something casually in the restaurant, and you all know it."

Cai Chu hurriedly said: "To tell you the truth, Master, the restaurant at Ningxikou is owned by this little girl, and the woman who made the flour in the shop is my wife. You told her about it, and when she came back, she told me that Why don't you come?"

"The Gujin restaurant is actually opened by such a little girl, which really surprised the old man. Although the two little girls I saw today are young, they have made a lot of achievements. Our little girl The rising star in Lushan Town is really extraordinary."

Xie Yan and Zhuang Wan were embarrassed by the old man's praise, so they hurriedly brought the topic to the school.

Master Zhao pondered for a while and said: "I was worried about not having enough students before, but now this problem has been solved, but if you want to hold a school at Ningxikou, you have to build a house, and it will take a lot of effort."

Cai Chu said: "If we run a school in Ningxikou, not only our two villages, but also several nearby villages can send their children here, which is closer than the town."

Master Zhao looked at Zhuang Wan suspiciously and said: "Didn't Zhuang Xiucai open a private school before, why doesn't he teach now, is it because he wants to continue to rush for the exam?"

Cai Chu also looked at Zhuang Wan, only to see her nodded and said, "That's exactly what I mean."

Mrs. Zhao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay-okay-ok."

"Let's leave the teaching to the old man."

Seeing that he was so forthright, Xie Yan asked: "Then how to solve the matter of the school, do you have a plan in your mind?"

"Well," Mrs. Zhao nodded, "I have an old acquaintance in the county. If I talk to him about the land, I can ask him to come down directly. As for the house, I have to build a new one."

Cai Chu hurriedly patted his chest and said, "If you are building a new house, I will be in charge of the labor. Later, I will discuss it with Lizheng in the next few villages, and ask them to arrange a few people from each village to help build the house."

Master Zhao said: "Since these problems have been solved, leave the rest to me."

Mrs. Zhao funded the construction of the school himself, and Xie Yan didn't say anything to snatch the job. After all, Mrs. Zhao must have accumulated a lot of wealth after staying in the palace for so many years. Maybe his own is not enough for others to appreciate.

After they discussed it, they said goodbye to Mr. Zhao and went back separately.

When Zhuang Wan returned home, when she first entered the yard, she saw a few unfamiliar faces sitting in the main room, preparing to have dinner, especially Zhuang Tianrui, who was sitting near the door, looking at her gloatingly, with a vague premonition in her heart. He turned his head and walked towards his room.

After returning to the house Yu Po followed her in, and said a little uneasy: "Your uncle said that a friend came to visit. Looking at the big bags and small bags, he also brought a young child with him. It seems that he is here to give you a blind date."

Zhuang Wan's face instantly turned cold when she heard that, she was really afraid of something, she thought that her aunt would stop her from proposing marriage to her because of the house in the city, but unexpectedly she didn't stop her, did she? Are you afraid that she will take the house away after she gets married?

Otherwise, you want to marry her off and take over the house?

But no matter what it was, Zhuang Wan couldn't accept it. She gritted her teeth and walked out of the room angrily, but the other party didn't explain why she came.

Zhuang Shinan saw that Zhuang Wan had just come back and was about to go out again, so he hurriedly shouted behind his back: "Zhuang Wan, where are you going, Uncle Gong's family is here as a guest, why don't you come over quickly to pay respects!"

Zhuang Wan was so angry at this moment, she would not listen to him, and went out without looking back.

Zhuang Shinan was slapped in the face all of a sudden, he couldn't hold back his face, his face was livid with anger, and he was about to explode when he heard his old friend's son Gong Chengping stand up and say to him: "Uncle Zhuang, don't be angry, my nephew found out that I was with Zhuang Wan before. I know her, let me persuade her to come back."

Zhuang Shinan looked at the young man with red lips and white teeth in front of him. Although he didn't say a word when he came here just now, he stood up to let him go down the steps, and said with a gratified expression on his face: "Since you know each other, nephew, go quickly. Zhuang Wan has always been sensible, and this happened only because I didn't tell her beforehand."

"It doesn't matter, a talented girl should be more tempered, I'll come back as soon as I go." After finishing speaking, Gong Chengping chased after her.

Seeing his good temper, Zhuang Shinan nodded with his hands behind his back, turned around and continued drinking with his old friend.

After Zhuang Wan went out, she walked in the direction of Xie's house. Before she had walked a few steps, she heard someone calling her from behind.

"Zhuang Xiucai - Zhuang Xiucai -"

Zhuang Wan turned her head and glanced at the young man who was chasing after her. She felt that his face was a bit familiar. She had seen it somewhere before. She only knew that it was the person who came to her on a blind date today, and her expression was not very good.

Looking at her expression, Gong Chengping knew that this person must have never paid attention to him before, so he smiled helplessly.

"It's me, Gong Chengping, the one who is often with Xu Qiuyang." Then she patted her head, Zhuang Wan didn't even know herself, so how could she know Xu Qiuyang.

Hastily added: "The bookstore in the town, at that time the two of us—"

Unexpectedly, Zhuang Wan recognized Xu Xu Qiuyang as soon as he mentioned it.

It's just that if he appeared here today, there might be something good to say between the two of them.

So he stopped looking at him, turned around and continued walking.

"Zhuang Xiucai, Zhuang Xiucai, wait a minute, I have something to tell you—"

Zhuang Wan didn't look back.

"Hey—why are you so hostile? I'm not a bad person—wait a minute. In fact, I have no choice but to come. If you want, we can join hands—"

Just halfway through her words, Zhuang Wan really stopped.

"How do you want to join forces?"

Gong Chengping realized that he couldn't keep a secret, because the woman in front of him didn't give him any patience.

He hurriedly poured out his hole cards and said, "I already have someone I like, but my family doesn't agree with me being with her. I have no choice but to come here this time. If you don't want to, I think it might be better for us to join forces than to confront each other." better."

"How do you want to join forces?" Zhuang Wan stared at him without blinking, repeating the words just now.

Gong Chengping didn't look well either, he was out of breath after a few steps after catching up.

"I couldn't think of what to do for a while, and I didn't know you had such an attitude when I came here, but if possible, let's sit down and discuss it."

"If I don't have attitude, then are you following the orders of your parents and the words of the matchmaker?" Zhuang Wan said coldly.

"Of course not, who do you take me for?"

Gong Chengping could tell that Zhuang Wan didn't want to get along with him at all. Fortunately, he already had a sweetheart, otherwise he would definitely feel that a handsome young man like him would be so unpopular and very sad.

"Cooperating with me is the only choice for you."

After Gong Chengping finished speaking, Zhuang Wan gave him a glare and hurriedly changed his words: "Of course it will bring me greater benefits."

"In any case, I will not marry any man."

Zhuang Wan's face revealed a look of determination, but she also knew that since the uncle could find Gong Chengping, he would naturally be able to find other people as well. If Gong Chengping didn't intend to deceive, it would be a good idea to cooperate with him at present. The best policy.

Gong Chengping said: "I will go to the state capital to take the provincial examination in July next year. If we can delay until then, they will have nothing to do when we are away."

Zhuang Wan also agrees with his opinion. Apart from taking the provincial examination, she has to go up step by step. As long as she survives this period, the uncle will have nothing to do with her.

"Then how do you procrastinate?"

"It is necessary to let them have a glimmer of hope, and we will not arrange other people for us, but we will not give them a clear answer until Qiuwei."

Zhuang Wan nodded, agreeing with him.

I just didn't expect Gong Chengping to change into another look in the next moment, showing two small canine teeth with a smile, and said to Zhuang Wan in a flattering way: "Last time Qiuyang said that you wrote the few books that are popular now. I've read them all, but is there anything new?"

Speaking of the script, Zhuang Wan's expression eased a little and said: "I didn't write the script."

"Qiuyang clearly said that you and another young lady wrote it. Could it be that he made a mistake?" Gong Chengping said disappointedly.

"I was just copying for Yu, it's not my writing."

"Then can you take me to meet that little lady? Those few story books are so beautiful. I admire her so much."

Seeing his admiration, Zhuang Wan refused without thinking, "She's not free."

Looking at Gong Chengping's expression of being shocked, he couldn't help but feel a little refreshed. Jin'er has already had admirers since he hasn't gone out much. Dangerous.

"It seems that you have a good relationship with that talented woman, otherwise why would she ask you to help her copy the script."

Zhuang Wan shook her head and said: "The relationship is not good, you don't have to think about finding her through me."

Gong Chengping was disappointed when he heard the words, he thought of something and said excitedly: "Qiuyang's book will be sold out soon, I will come back to look for that girl again in a few days, and I will come with him when the time comes."

Zhuang Wan heard that she had made a mistake in her heart, if she let him get to know Jin'er through Xu Qiuyang's relationship, she would have less control over him, if she made a match by herself, she wouldn't be afraid that he would not help her deal with her uncle.
