Chapter 212 Visit

"Okay." The woman in the palace dress seemed to have already expected his answer, and smiled slightly, then stretched out her show hand and handed him something, "But please remember to bring this thing tomorrow, maybe you can help..."

Su Yulong took it with a little confusion and saw that the object was a piece of emerald green round jade the size of his thumb. His whole body was transparent and emitted a faint light, and it looked like it was not an ordinary person.

"What's the purpose of this...?" he asked hesitantly.

"Maybe... you will know in the future, teacher." The woman in the palace dress smiled slightly, but refused to say it explicitly and deliberately kept it a secret.

Seeing this, Su Yulong did not continue to ask more questions, but just kept it silently in his heart.

The next morning, he slowly opened his eyes from the bed, feeling the softness of the bed below, and felt a little strange and uncomfortable in his heart.

Fortunately, he quickly got rid of the strangeness in his heart, turned to look at the piece of jade placed beside the pillow, picked it up and played with it, and then carefully put it in his waist to prevent it from being lost accidentally.

Since the sister said it would be useful, she should not lie to herself, it would be better to do it as she did.

In addition, he no longer lives in the home of the black-faced scholar at that time. After the county examination results were completed, the county government gave certain silver and money rewards to those with excellent grades, and he naturally received the most as the head of the case. These silver and money may not be anything to the wealthy family, but it was an unexpected surprise for Su Yulong, who was currently extremely short of money.

The black-faced scholar who helped him at the most downturn was naturally grateful. He gave nearly half of the reward money to the other party, leaving only the money that could barely survive.

After moving out, he came to the county town and rented a remote small yard to study. Later, he listened to his friend's advice to set up a shelf on the side of the road and earned some living expenses by writing for others. He just wanted to make a living, but after he had the title of the county trial, there were endless customers. Many people came to ask for a letter after hearing about his name.

There are also many scholars who want to come and see the style of this desk leader, and buy a calligraphy to collect it home.

In this way, his business was unexpectedly good. With the premise that only one hour of stalls is set up every day without affecting his study time, he also made him still have a surplus in his daily expenses!

However, his original intention was not to make money by this, so he always sticks to his original intention and does not waste valuable study time to earn this money. Instead, the guests outside admire his character more and more.

But today he doesn't plan to set up a stall.

He took out the broken silver he had accumulated over the past few days from under the bed, held it in his palm and counted it repeatedly several times. It was not too much, only about three or four taels, but it was a huge sum for him.

Taking a deep breath, he tidied up his clothes, confirmed that his appearance was quite good, no longer hesitated, then turned around and took the money from his department out, but did not go directly to the Xie family, but instead went to the winery he had never set foot in, intending to buy a pot of good wine.

After all, this is my first visit to the house, so I must leave some good impression on them, so this meeting gift is naturally indispensable.

In fact, he had never studied these human relationship accidents, and was not sure what kind of meeting gifts should be bought to be appropriate. But he also vaguely remembered that she had heard from a girl that her father liked to drink good wine the most and was addicted to alcohol. He decided to buy some wine to come to his house, which was considered to be his favorite.

When he left the winery, he looked at the pot of wine in his hand with some distress, and it actually cost most of the money he had saved!

No wonder those drunkards can drink their families and their families are destroyed, and they can't help but secretly decide in their hearts that they will never touch this thing in the future.

However, he had no regrets, but the closer he got to the gate of the Xie family, he became more and more nervous. His heart seemed to be beating even more intense than when the county trial was announced. He was so nervous that he even started to walk and his body was stiff.

The location of the Xie family's gate could be vaguely seen in his sight. He hugged the pot of wine tightly in his arms, and tried to breathe several times to calm himself down. He must not lose face later, and even make the other party look down on him.

But just as he made up his mind to walk over, the sound of the carriage wheels suddenly came from behind him, accompanied by the coachman's whipping and shouting, "Go ahead, get out of here!"

Su Yulong subconsciously dodged aside, but the carriage behind him was so fast that it still touched his shoulders slightly, which made him stagger and twisted his feet and fell to the ground!

Fortunately, when he fell down, he hugged the wine pot tightly in his arms, and finally there was no bump. He felt a little relieved and would never have spent all the money in vain.

Immediately, he looked in the direction of the carriage with some anger. The driver was so arrogant that he was driving so fast on the road. Fortunately, he was a young man. What should he do if he bumped into those children?

But the driver seemed to not care about these things at all, and had no intention of apologizing. He still drove straight past, causing chaos along the way, and many passers-by were resentful.

But what surprised Su Yulong the most was that the carriage did not go far, but eventually stopped in front of the gate of Xie’s mansion!

Then, the curtain of the car was lifted, and a young man in luxury clothes slowly walked down from the car. His appearance looked as white as a wealthy family. His slightly narrow eyebrows and eyes were a bit arrogant as if he looked down on everyone around him.

He shook the fan in his hand, and regardless of the resentful common people behind him, he walked straight into the gate of Xie's mansion, as if he was entering and leaving his own gate. The servants at the door of Xie did not dare to stop him, but instead bent down and greeted him respectfully.

This scene fell in Su Yulong's eyes not far away, but he couldn't help but feel a little bad premonition in his heart.

"Who is this person?"

As far as he knows, there seems to be no such person in the Xie family.

Before he could think too much, he quickly patted the dust stained with his body that had just fallen and walked over quickly, but before he got close, he was stopped by a servant outside the door.

"What do you want to do?" The servant was not as respectful as he had just greeted the young master. Instead, he looked at the somewhat dull scholar in front of him with a dissatisfaction.

"I would like to inform you, I want to visit Mr. Xie!"

Su Yulong replied hurriedly.

"Visit my master?" The servant looked him up and down and frowned.

Su Yulong explained, "The following is named Su Yulong, who is the head of the county examination. I have admired Miss Xie for a long time, but I didn't dare to be arrogant before. Now that I have achieved fame, I come to ask for my meeting..."
