Chapter 35 Farewell
In the early morning, there was a hustle and bustle in front of Guo's house. Xue Qing and Ge Chuan walked out, and the neighbors standing on the street were even more lively.
"Young Master Qingzi, you're safe all the way."
"Young Master Qingzi, you are going to be the top scholar."
"We're going to have a top pick on the street."
The blessings were filled with joy, and Xue Qing thanked him. Guo Ziqian over there with tears in his eyes: "Brother Qingzi, get in the car quickly, don't miss the time." He also muttered: "Have you brought your luggage? Have you checked it? Let me take a look..." Yunyun.
Xue Qing walked towards the car as he said. Guo Zi'an stood beside the car with his head down and hurriedly made way out when he saw her coming.
Guo Ziqian grabbed him and said, "Brother, Brother Qingzi rarely takes a car. He is not familiar with getting in. You have to go in first and pull him up..." As he said that, his eyes turned red again, "...How is it good, I should let me go."
Guo Zian shook his hand away and refused to go into the car. Xue Qing had already gotten in the car and waved to his neighbors: "If you go there, you will be the toad palace to win the osmanthus."
She said this and got the head of the county examination. This time, the neighbors were full of confidence and cheered in unison. Xue Qing got into the car. Guo Zian got into the car but only sat outside. The hunched and thin little looking inconspicuous coachman led the horse forward, and the carriage rolled with a clatter. Until this moment, Ge Chuan, who had been smiling, was crying, and tears flowed out.
"Aoko..."
The person was about to cry and walked forward, and the women beside him were ready to support her.
"Aunt Xue, don't cry... This is a great joy."
"The child is uneasy when he goes out. Don't cry, he will be even more sad, which will affect the exam."
She persuaded and comforted her and stopped her from pounced forward. With tears in her eyes, the carriage drove out of the street. Behind the street were crowded with more carriages. They gathered from all sides to the east city gate. The prefect Li Guangyuan, the governor of Shilili, and a group of officials personally saw him off. In addition, the family members of each family, relatives and friends, the young classmates, and the idle people watching the fun, the entire Shili Pavilion was hustle and bustle.
Xue Qing got out of the car and saw Zhang Liantang Chu Minghui Leting and others joking with Zhang Shuangtong there.
"Sanshilang." Chu Minghui waved.
Xue Qing walked over and bowed and said, "Thank you for your trip."
Chu Minghui waved his hand and said, "No need to thank you."
Xue Qing looked at him and said, "Do you have no gift?"
Chu Minghui was stunned and then glared at him and shouted: "Sancilang, you are so embarrassed to speak. Are you going to participate in the gentleman's test. Where is the gentleman's demeanor?" Everyone around laughed, and more classmates gathered over. Xue Qing took a step back and stood beside Zhang Liantang and Leting.
Leting said: "I don't have any gifts, and I want to take a step first."
Xue Qing smiled and said, "I have a gift for you..." He looked at Zhang Liantang again, "I have prepared a bookshelf in Zhizhi Hall, and you can open the door and let Leting take it."
Zhang Liantang nodded with a smile, and Le Ting was not polite either. He smiled and turned around, then turned around and waved his hand: "Classmate, goodbye."
He still remembered this, and Xue Qing smiled and raised his hand: "Goodbye classmate." He watched Le Ting leave and looked at Zhang Liantang again.
Zhang Liantang said, "Ziqian Baoer is here." While moving away, Guo Ziqian did not come here. Instead, he went to the carriage and muttered to Guo Zi'an. But Guo Baoer stood up with displeasure.
"Don't go to the capital to find Chunxiao." She glared.
Xue Qing said: "If you don't go to the capital, the imperial examination will be next year... I will be back after the gentleman exam."
Guo Baoer then smiled, and wanted to say something but didn't know what to say until he heard a female voice coming.
"Young Master Qingzi."
Guo Baoer was furious in Liu Wuer's voice. Looking at the girl walking from Liu Chunyang's carriage, he immediately rushed over with great momentum.
"Don't come here!"
Guo Baoer stopped Liu Wuer, and the two girls tugged together. Although the girls helped him, Liu Wuer still couldn't escape Guo Baoer's entanglement and had to salute Xue Qing from afar: "Young Master Qingzi has a good journey."
Xue Qing bowed and thanked her.
"Don't look at her." Guo Baoer turned around and stared at her angry.
The pulling around attracted everyone to see it. It was not good in public. The Guo family and the Liu family's servants came forward to surround them and pulled them away.
Xue Qing looked at Zhang Liantang and said, "What are you laughing at? What do you want to say?"
Zhang Liantang raised his hand and pointed, "Your cake is here."
Xue Qing saw Zhang Nian, who hadn't seen for a long time, squeezed over in the crowd, shaking around, as if looking for something, and then saw Xue Qing, he waved his hand happily, and the person also ran over, panting.
"I'm late, I'm late, because the pancakes are delicious now." He said, handing over a bag of oil paper, which seemed very hot, and turned it upside down in his hand, "My sister has put a lot of candy."
Xue Qing reached out to take it and thanked him. He heard the gossip about how long it took to go on the road and what to do for food and drink? He answered one by one while saying that, and the officials from the government school began to summon sentient beings. It was time to set off.
Zhang Nian said happily: "Go quickly and go quickly." He was excited.
Xue Qing looked at Zhang Liantang, and Zhang Liantang nodded to her: "Go quickly and go quickly." He didn't say anything else.
Xue Qing nodded and bowed to them, and stood in front of his carriage and horse like others.
At this moment, there was a noise behind him, and there was a shout.
"The house test list has been posted!"
The crowd suddenly became turbulent, and the government examination was held as scheduled in May, and it was time to post the list.
"I wonder who is the top spot?"
"Have I passed?"
The crowd was noisy, and except for relatives and friends, most of them rushed towards the city... Compared to the gentleman exam candidates who were traveling far away, who didn't know the results, the house exam in front of them was still attractive.
Master Li looked at the people beside the car and said, "I'm waiting for your day of opening the bill."
Everyone saluted: "We must live up to expectations." Then they got on the car together.
Mr. Qingxia sat in a carriage in the front, and swung the whip. The carriage started, and the carriage lined up on the main road and headed forward in a row.
Xue Qing was still sitting outside the carriage, unable to help but look back. His eyes swept over Guo Ziqian who was wiping tears, Zhang Nian who waved his hand excitedly, and Zhang Liantang who stood with a smile, looked at the nearby teahouse and restaurant, looked at the crowd rushing on the road, and then looked at the Chang'an City in the distance. It was a farewell. Although it was not the first time, this time he was a little reluctant. Xue Qing withdrew his gaze and sat in the car.
....
....
Seeing the convoy turning into a black dot on the road and the crowd outside the Ten Mile Pavilion had dispersed at this time, Zhang Liantang retracted his gaze and turned around.
Chu Minghui said: "Don't your grandfather want you to go? Why do you want Shuangtong to go?"
Zhang Liantang said: "Pei Yanzi Liu Chunyang has gone with him. Zhizhitang cannot be without people, so he can gather together and cannot give up halfway. It is most suitable for me to stay."
Chu Minghui suddenly realized, smiled again, and said, "Then you are the decision of Zhizhitang these days, can you drink and play cards in it?"
