Chapter 73, Goodbye Jiangnan!
"This silly child dare not come over------" Luo Qi's eyes were wet, and he sighed softly: "Since childhood, you brother and sister have almost never separated. You are afraid that you will not be able to see each other for a year or two. How could she bear it?"
"I understand." Li Muyang looked at the little girl's slightly shaking shoulders, her nasal choking, and her voice choked, and said, "It won't be that long, I will be back soon. Didn't I say that I have a crane that can sit in our school----I will raise a crane myself at that time, and I will fly back to see you every day. After breakfast at home, I will go to school."
Luo Qi hit Li Muyang's shoulder and said, "Nonsense. How can you come back every day? The most important thing is to take care of yourself, study hard, and not let others look down on you."
"Mom, I can." Li Muyang and Zheng said with a tight head.
"I've boarded the boat and boarded the boat. If I don't board the boat, I'll drive away." The boatman in a short robe shouted loudly on the board.
This ship is a passenger ship. Except for a few travelers and merchants who go to Tiandu, most of them are students like Li Muyang who want to go to Tiandu to study.
Children travel far away, parents, relatives and friends come to see them off.
The Maple Forest Ferry is very lively, with greetings, laughter and crying.
Li Muyang waved his hand and said, "Dad, mom, you guys go back. I'm going to board the boat."
"Sheep--------" Luo Qi held back his tears and let go of his son's hand, saying: "You should have lived a better life, but your parents are not able to give it to you. You must protect yourself and not be bullied. If you suffer grievances outside, come back, and your parents can support you for the rest of your life."
"Mom, what are you saying?" Li Muyang said with a smile. "I am very glad that I am your son. I think I am living a good life now. And I will get better and better in the future. Don't worry, I won't have any trouble."
Li Muyang knew that his parents would not be able to leave without leaving. He glanced at Li Si Nian, and the little girl was still standing there with her back facing her.
"Li Si Nian-----" Li Muyang shouted to the distance: "I will miss you."
He waved to Li Si Nian's back and turned around to walk towards the board.
"Li Muyang-----" someone shouted loudly, and a fast horse ran towards this side.
Everyone's eyes on the shore were attracted by the man who was on the horse, and a young man in a samurai uniform sat on the horse and shouted loudly.
"Li Muyang, please wait for a while." The man rushed straight to Li Muyang by horse, jumped up from the horse's back, bowed to Li Muyang, and said respectfully, "The City Lord is coming to see you off, and you have arrived in Shilin Valley at this time."
As soon as these words were spoken, the audience was in an uproar.
"The city lord wants to come to see Li Muyang off in person?"
"The city lord is so nice to that Li Muyang, right? Just because he got the first place in the imperial examination, he actually rewarded two thousand gold coins--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"That Li Muyang is not the godson of the city lord, is it? Maybe he is an illegitimate son--------"
----------
Li Muyang was also slightly surprised and said, "The city lord is busy with all kinds of things every day, so there is really no need to come here on purpose."
Not only others doubted the relationship between the city lord and himself, but even Li Muyang himself began to doubt it.
After the results were announced, the City Lord's Mansion ordered the Jiangnan Education Department to send a reward of 2,000 gold coins. After hearing the news, the entire Hubu Lane was in full swing. Many people living there could not make so much money in their lives, but Li Muyang got this large amount of money just by passing an exam. No wonder people say, "There is a golden house in the book." Isn't this fulfilled by Li Muyang?
Now the city lord is coming to see you off in person, which really touched Li Muyang. I have some friendship with your son, but your preferential treatment is too much, right?
"This is a bad word." A big brown horse ran towards this side. On the back was a middle-aged man wearing a brown scribe's uniform, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, wide face and beautiful beard.
A group of sergeants wearing black samurai suits and long swords followed closely behind them to guard both sides, with horse hooves storming, but uniform. They sounded well-trained, not ordinary soldiers.
Dong---------
The middle-aged man had already jumped off the horse's back without stopping.
He stepped on the ground with his feet, giving people the feeling of stamping a big hole in the earth.
"Choose the country is the top priority. Today, many candidates went to Tiandu to study and seek official career. As the lord of a city, Yan should come to see him off." The middle-aged man deliberately raised his voice when he spoke, so that everyone who saw him off on the shore could hear him.
"Are you the lord of Jiangnan City?" Li Muyang asked timidly as he looked at the man who was not tall but extremely majestic in front of him. This was the first time he had dealt with such a big man.
Moreover, this man has a sense of oppression that makes people look powerful and it is difficult for ordinary people to look at him.
"I am Yan Bolai." Yan Bolai said with a smile. He was also looking at Li Muyang. He was tall and handsome, and his skin was not as dark as everyone said. His eyes were clear, and he was neither avoided nor timid when he looked at him. He was confident and calm, but with a little bit of alertness.
"The city lord came to see him off in person, and Muyang is so grateful." Li Muyang bowed deeply.
Other students also surrounded them. Who wouldn't want to find an opportunity to get in touch with the city lord? Even if they go out to study now, don't they have to find a good job after returning from school, right? No matter what is the best thing to do than working with the city lord?
"The city lord knows and loves talents is really a blessing for our Jiangnan students."
"Thank you, the city lord, we should study hard and think hard, so as to strengthen our minds and minds, so as to work hard for the city lord in the future--------"
"City Lord, please accept a greeting from the students----------"
------------
A farewell action and a few simple words moved and impressed many students.
Yan Bolai is unfathomable.
Yan Bolai was generous and generous, and helped the students bow to him, and said with a smile: "You are all the pearls of my Jiangnan, and the best person representing my Jiangnan image. This time, I went to Tiandu, which was the momentum of carp leaping on the dragon gate. I just hope that you will not forget your hometown and return to your studies and build this Jiangnan prosperous city with me."
Yan Bolai made a big move and shouted, "Wine comes, I want to drink a glass with all the young heroes."
The waiter gave the prepared wine to every candidate. Yan Bolai also picked up a large bowl and said loudly: "I wish you all peace and a bright future."
Yan Bolai drank the strong wine in the bowl in one go, and the other students were also infected by their words and momentum. Everyone was excited and excited and drank the wine in the big bowl with excitement.
Some guys who have heard a lot of fiction novels even learned from those thieves in the world. After drinking, they smashed the bowl on the ground vigorously. When they saw the classmates around him looking at him for no reason, he turned red and ashamed.
"I paid out of my own pocket to ask my family to prepare some pens and ink for you, and I would like to ask you guys not to dislike you." Yan Bolai waved his hand, and the soldiers gave the four treasures of the study on the carriage to the candidates.
"Thank you for the reward of the city lord."
"The city lord really loves us---------"
"City Lord, in three years, I will report to the City Lord's Mansion and let you drive it."
----------
Yan Bolai exchanged a few greetings with everyone, then looked at Li Muyang and said, "Starry Sky School is not comparable to ordinary schools. Sheep should be prepared, right?"
"Preparation?" Li Muyang was stunned and said, "What do you want to prepare?"
Yan Bolai saw that Li Muyang's expression was not like a fake, and it seemed that he did not know what was unknown. He laughed loudly and patted Li Muyang on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. It's just that the road is hard to walk, and it's not a big deal. Since Muyang can get into the starry sky, he can naturally reach the top of the mountain------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Thank you, the city lord."
"You are like Brother Xiangma, just call me uncle------"
"Thank you---Uncle." Li Muyang hesitated for a moment and still followed his wishes. Anyway, there is a city lord who is not at a loss.
"Study hard and don't let everyone down."
Yan Bolai encouraged everyone a few more words, then jumped to the horse's back, leading a group of guards toward the road when they came.
Li Muyang said goodbye to his parents again. When he looked at Li Si Nian, the little girl was looking at him. After finding that Li Muyang saw through it, she waved her fist at him, and then quickly turned around.
Li Muyang smiled and walked towards the boat with the package and the four new study treasures sent by Yan Bolai.
Because Luo Qi was willing to spend money, Li Muyang had a second-class cabin on this big ship.
It is said that the top-level first-class cabin has been contracted in advance, otherwise Luo Qi would have to spend money to get one for his son no matter what.
The room is not big, but it is better in a single room. There is a small bed and then a small window. The window faces the direction of Sunset Lake, and you can see the rippling green waves there.
Li Muyang arranged his luggage and touched the gold coins sewn in his mother's underwear----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can you imagine the heavy jingling feeling inside Li Muyang’s crotch?
Fortunately, Luo Qi also considered the problem of inconvenience in walking and only sewed a portion in it, and she divided the others into several small portions and placed them in extremely hidden places. Even Li Muyang herself was worried that she would not be able to find it.
After packing up, Li Muyang walked towards the front cabin deck. The ship was about to open, and the deck was full of people shouting farewell to relatives and friends on the shore.
Li Sinian finally turned around, and she stood with her parents and looked towards the deck.
Because she didn't see her brother Li Muyang, her expression seemed a little anxious.
"Xi Nian, I'm here--------" Li Muyang stood behind a fat man and waved vigorously at Li Si Nian.
"Brother-------------------" Li Sinian finally saw Li Muyang and shouted loudly. "I can't protect you anymore, you have to protect yourself."
The cable was untied and the boat began to swim towards the center of the lake.
Li Muyang stood on the deck, looking at the family gradually moving away, watching their vivid expressions turn into black spots, and felt like a corner of their heart was dug out.
