The first update is to ask for pink.

****……………………****

If Lian Shuxin was not mentioned, Lian Man'er would almost forget that Lian Jizu had the same problem.

"Yes, have Jizu gone to the exam? How are you doing this?" Zhang looked at Lian Shouxin and asked Goro.

"Group Jizu is here to take the exam... It seems that he didn't perform well on the spot and didn't pass the exam." Goro said.

The few people in the room were silent for a while, and no one sighed about it. There was a thousand experiences there, and Lian Jizu failed the exam again, which was no longer surprising. Lian Man'er didn't know what others were thinking at home. She believed that Lian Jizu didn't like studying at all, but just regarded studying as a kind of business, a kind of business that could escape labor and claim that he was superior to others. Lian Jizu didn't even care whether he could pass the exam. He just needed to maintain his identity as a supporter.

"Anyway... the life of going to a room is easy now, so let's take the exam slowly, you can always get the exam. Maybe the time is not yet." Zhang said insincerely. She wanted to comfort Lian Shouxin.

"Jizu's child is not bad, but he is just a careless person. Alas." Lian Shouxin didn't seem to care as Zhang thought. "What's going on Jizu's exam? Are you talking about it? Are you not both good at your grandparents in Taicang?"

"Brother Jizu arrived earlier than me. He took the people he served and arranged food, accommodation and other things. I asked, and Brother Jizu said that my grandfather and my grandmother were good, and everything in Taicang was good. After the exam, he was given the list and he went back to Taicang." Goro briefly explained the situation, and it was obvious that when he was in the capital, he and Lian Jizu were not intimate.

Lian Man'er had no idea about this. The two of them had never been close to each other before, and their personality was incompatible with their growth environment. In addition, the gap between their family and the house was there. The few young people, Zhang, were also calm when facing people and things about the house, because they were gentle, didn't like to hold grudges, and were worried about their face.

"You are worried about others? Didn't you hear Wuro say that they are now an official family, and there are people to serve whatever they go out." Zhang turned a blank look and glanced at Shuxin.

"I didn't worry about him. I knew it wasn't my turn to worry about him. I just asked his grandfather and his grandmother." Lian Shouxin hurriedly explained.

The topic changed, and everyone asked Goro about his situation in the prefecture city with one word. As the night became deeper and deeper, Goro's face showed a hint of fatigue. Although Zhang refused to let go, he still stopped.

"Gurou came out before dawn in the city. He had been on the way for a day and had no rest when he came back. Goruo, I have boiled water for you, hurry up and take a shower and go to bed early." Zhang stood up and said, "You don't have to get up so early tomorrow morning. Have a good rest."

"Yes, if you have anything to say, let's continue talking tomorrow." Lian Shouxin said.

"Yes, brother, you go to rest early." Lian Man'er also said.

"Okay." Goro was a little tired, so he stood up.

There was nothing to say all night, Goro got up refreshed the next day, everyone had breakfast together, and then they started to check and packed up the luggage package Goro brought back. Because there were too many people yesterday, Goro was tired again at night. Therefore, Goro brought back the luggage package Goro kept there and did not open it.

"Brother, have all the lotus seeds been sent out?" Lian Man'er asked.

"Well, I've sent it all out." Goro nodded, taking out a booklet from the book box and handing it to Lian Man'er, "I have kept the accounts for most of the dealings in the city."

Goro thought carefully. After all, no matter how good a person's memory is, it is limited. However, the things recorded on paper can be taken out and referenced from time to time. Lian Man'er thought about it in her mind and took the account book and looked through it page by page. Goro's account book is very detailed, and there is a brief introduction to the other party after almost every transaction.

While reading the account book, Lian Man'er counted the reward gifts Goro received. Some of them were not clear about, and he would ask Goro for a few questions.

You can't underestimate these few pages of account books, this is the beginning of Goro's accumulation of connections.

After counting the items according to the account book, Lian Man'er repeatedly flipped through the account book, surprised that why there was no contact with the Shen family?

Before she could ask, Goro asked Zhang to open the other two bags, and at the same time, he sent a letter and a gift booklet from the book box.

"Xiao Jiu gave you and Xiao Qi a letter... I have another booklet from the Shen family." Goro smiled and handed over the letter and gift list to Lian Man'er.

When Xiaopang heard that Shen Xiaopang had written another letter, Xiaoqi was happy and approached Lian Man'er and wanted to read the letter together.

"I will open the letter to you." Seeing Xiao Qi looking at him, Lian Man'er smiled and gave the letter to Xiao Qi.

Xiaoqi was even more happy and carefully cut the envelope with scissors and took out the letter.

"Sister, let's read together." Xiaoqi held up the letter and sat in front of Lian Man'er, and the siblings read the letter together.

Shen Xiaopang in the letter was still in a serious tone at the beginning, and the general meaning was the same as the previous letter, but the content of this letter was significantly increased. Shen Xiaopang talked about his current life in the letter, even when to get up in the morning and when to sleep at night. He also said that he liked the fresh lotus pods and fresh water chestnuts sent to Lian Man'er's house, and said that there was something fresh that made Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi think about him and send it to him.

At the end of the letter, his tone was like gossip, and he finally said, "It would be even better if you two could come to the city to see me together."

"Sister, when will we go to the city to check it out?" After reading the letter, Xiaoqi immediately said with great enthusiasm.

"Don't worry, there will be opportunities in the future." Lian Man'er touched Xiaoqi's head and said with a smile.

Goro obtained the qualification of a student, that is, he obtained the qualification to study in Shengjing Academy. According to regulations, all scholars who passed the exam must study in Shengjing Academy.

When they heard this news, the whole family reacted very much. Especially Zhang and Xiaoqi, they were both reluctant to let go. In the end, Goro said that comforted the mother and son.

"It is said that you must go to school, but in fact it is just a formality. You only need to listen to classes for a few days a month, and then let your teacher take the exam to improve his knowledge and go home to read the books by himself."

"With Mr. Lu here, I don't have to go every day."

After hearing what Goro said, he only needs to stay in the capital city for a few days a month, and he still study at home for the rest of the time, and everyone was relieved.

"Brother, then you won't go to a private school in the future?" Xiaoqi asked again.

"Well, I won't go." Wulang said, "But if I'm at home, I'll send you to school every day, okay?"

"That's not necessary, hehe." Goro said this. Xiaoqi was happy and felt a little embarrassed, so he laughed.

Wuro has to go to the capital every month. When did Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi want to go there with him? It's just a matter of one sentence.

Knowing that Goro lives at home most of the time, and has the opportunity to go to the mansion with his brother and sister to play. Seeing Chen Xiaopang, Xiaoqi was so happy that he almost danced with joy.

"Sister, let's see what Brother Xiaojiu has brought to us again?" Xiaoqi said.

This time, Goro went to the capital city and still visited Chen Mansion. This time, Shen Liu happened to be at home and specially met Goro. The Shen family still had a "money-gold oil"-shaped return gift, which contained a ruler, pen and ink, tea, and folding fan. Among them, the tea replaced the silver liang from the last time. Shen Liu and Shen Xiaopang prepared another gift.

Shen Liu gave a pair of blue and white round-mouthed double-eared bottles. Chen Xiaopang gave a variety of food, food, and fun. The gifts from the Shen family alone accounted for more than half of the reward gifts.

"How about Wulang rests at home for two days, and then go to the city again?" Lian Shouxin said, "Before the festival, I will send our fresh lotus root, crabs and shrimps to Mr. Liu and Mr. Jiu."

Originally, these were planned to be used, not to mention that Xiaoqi just said that his little brother Xiaojiu also specifically said that he wanted these things in the letter.

"Okay." Goro naturally had no objection.

As noon approached, two more customers came to Lian Man'er's house. Zhang Qingshan's family received news and knew that Wulang had passed the scholar as he wished, so he came to congratulate him. As soon as he arrived at Lian Man'er's house, Zhang Qingshan asked Zhang Qingnian to light up the firecrackers he bought. The gifts were more than twice as many as last time, including a pair of chickens, a pair of ducks, a pair of goat legs, four big fish, four wild rabbits, half a fan of pork, pig heads and whole pigs. In addition, they would bring mushrooms, fungus and other mountain products that they would bring every time they came, as well as newly brewed walnuts, autumn plums, duck pears and other fresh fruits.

Zhang Qingshan and Li family entered the door, and the Song family arrived in the county. This time, Song Hailong, the only one in the Song family brought a few followers.

The Song family’s gifts were richer than last time, and they also delivered the gifts for the August Festival. In addition to the ruler, brush and ink, tea, decorations, fruits, snacks, etc., Song Hailong also gave a house deed. It was a three-entre house in Liushu Lane, the county town.

"...All furniture and servants are all in one go, so I don't have to worry about the fifth brother." Song Hailong said with a smile.

Goro is now a scholar, so it is inevitable that he will go to the county town to make friends. When doing business, there is a house, which is really much more convenient.

I have to say that the Song family has made a lot of work and has thoughtful ideas.

After Lian Man'er's family discussed, they only accepted all other gifts, but returned the deed to Song Hailong, saying that there is no need for the time being.

Lian Shouxin and Wulang were talking with Song Hailong, and naturally greeted the old lady of the Song family, but did not ask why Lian Huaer didn't come. It was Song Hailong who raised this topic himself, saying that Lian Huaer was not in good health and apologized to Lian Shouxin and Wulang for Lian Huaer's inability to come.

Lian Shouxin only asked a little, Wulang's face was faint and he didn't say anything. Song Hailong's eyes turned and then changed the topic.
