On the day agreed with Zhang Changgui, Yunjing was woken up by a rustling sound early in the morning. At first he thought his home had been robbed, but as he lived on the second floor, he got up and went to the railing to look outside. Look, it¡¯s family members lighting oil lamps and busy in the yard.
Looking at the sky, the moon was just slightly in the west, probably around two or three in the morning.
At this time, Jiang Susu in the yard was holding an oil lamp with one hand and blocking the wind with the other hand to prevent the flame of the oil lamp from being blown out by the wind. The family's big buffalo Dahei was being led in the yard, and Yunlin Yunshan was fetching water for it to wash its body.
They move very little and speak in low voices.
Seeing this scene, Yun Jing was stunned and asked curiously: "Grandpa, father, mother, what are you doing at night?"
When he suddenly spoke, the whole family was almost startled. Jiang Susu turned around and looked in his direction with a reproachful tone and said, "Xiaojing, you don't even make a sound when you walk." After saying that, she paused, Then he asked a little apologetically: "Did we make too much noise and disturb you?"
The light was dim and he stood in the shadow again. Yunjing didn't know whether they could see his movements or not. He shook his head and said: "I just heard some noise outside and thought my home was robbed, so I came out to take a look. Mom, you guys What are you doing?"
"Today you are going to the town to take Mr. Li's exam. Let's prepare in advance. It's a long journey. We'll clean up the big black. Then you can ride there to avoid being tired on the road. When the exam comes Well, you won't be able to perform well. Okay," Yun Lin raised his head and took over the conversation.
"I never thought that my family would even consider this. Yunjing's heart felt warm. In this world, only your elders are the best to you. They have no complaints or regrets. As long as you live well, it is the greatest reward for them.
"It doesn't have to be so early." Yunjing was a bit dumbfounded.
Yunshan said angrily: "It's getting late. There are still many things to prepare. Your mother will have to prepare dry food for us on the road later. We also need to prepare gifts for our visit. I'm afraid it will be almost dawn when we are ready. "
"That's it" Yun Jing was speechless, then scratched his head and asked, "Then how can I help?"
Jiang Susu looked in his direction and said firmly: "I don't need any help from you. Now you go to bed. The most important thing is to have enough energy to cope with Mr. Li's school exam. Be good, be obedient, and go to bed."
"Yes, Xiaojing, go to bed, we don't need any help from you here," Yunshan also said in a deep voice.
This matter can be said to be one of the most important events in the history of this family. Regarding Mr. Li's school entrance examination, they don't know what he is going to take and can't help at all, but in other aspects, they want to do their best. Try to do your best for Yunjing. As for the final result, it depends on whether Yunjing can catch Mr. Li's eyes.
In short, although they don¡¯t want to admit it, the family does not have high hopes for Yunjing to become Mr. Li¡¯s apprentice. They can only say that they have done their best to obey fate and worked hard. Even if the final result is not as expected, they don¡¯t have much regret. The only one to blame is The blame says bad luck.
Yunjing was moved and said that there was no need to be so serious, but it seemed that the family was too excited and uneasy to sleep, so they might as well do something to distract themselves.
"I couldn't say no to their kindness. I was afraid that wandering around in front of them would make them uneasy. It would be better to sleep to make them feel at ease, so Yunjing had no choice but to agree and go back to the house.
However, with his family making such serious preparations, how could he sleep?
¡°Tsk, it makes me a little nervous,¡± Yun Jing muttered speechlessly on the sugar bed.
So what will Mr. Li take the exam for?
Unable to sleep, Yun Jing simply pondered this matter. After much deliberation, he couldn't come up with any clue. Time slipped away unknowingly. Without paying attention, the sky outside the house was already slightly brightened by morning light.
At this time, Jiang Susu tiptoed up the stairs and whispered: "Xiaojing, get up, eat something and go to town."
¡°Mom, I¡¯ll be here right away,¡± Yunjing, who was not asleep, replied immediately.
Although he didn't sleep for long last night, he was still full of energy. It's not that he was too excited to sleep after encountering a big thing, but because he only slept for one or two hours a night and was full of energy all day long.
Of course, you have to sleep when you should. Sleeping is so comfortable.
Originally, there was no such thing as breakfast at the farmhouse, but in order for Yunjing to be in good condition when he went to town, Jiang Susu specially prepared breakfast for him. In the past, he did not receive such treatment.
The breakfast is quite rich, including porridge and eggs, and you can even see oily flowers in the white porridge
After Yunjing finished his breakfast, Jiang Susu immediately brought him hot water and washed him carefully.Even if Yunjing wanted to come, she wouldn't do it herself. In the end, she specially asked Yunjing to wear a new set of clothes. They were coarse cloth clothes without patches. She didn't know when Jiang Susu prepared them for him.
Seeing his mother tidying things up for him in such detail and with such concentration, Yunjing felt that his shoulders were inexplicably heavy.
After finishing organizing, Yunjing came to the yard, where Yunlin and Yunshan were already ready and waiting to set off.
Seeing Yun Jing come out, Yun Lin immediately lowered his voice and said: "Let's go to town."
"Grandpa, are we the only ones going?" Yunjing asked.
Yunlin said: "Let's go. It's not convenient for the villagers to know about this matter. It's good if it works, but if it doesn't work, we won't make a joke."
Yunjing thought about it, and then said with some worry: "But if we go there, the road will not be safe"
His worries are not unreasonable. You must know that there are ferocious beasts in the mountains and forests here. In the past, villagers would go to the town in groups.
"It's okay. We are taking Dahei with us. Normal wild beasts don't dare to approach us. Besides, we have walked that road so many times and we haven't encountered any danger. It can't be such a coincidence," Yunshan said in a deep voice.
He was comforting Yun Jing, and he had a sharpened hatchet on his waist. It was obvious that he was prepared for possible dangers, although his preparations probably wouldn't be of much use when faced with real dangers. .
¡°Let¡¯s go, it won¡¯t be convenient to meet the villagers when it gets light,¡± Yun Lin urged.
Yunjing didn¡¯t say anything else. If he really encounters danger from wild beasts on the road, he also has a way to deal with it. This is still the preparation he once imagined facing a martial arts practitioner. It shouldn¡¯t be a big problem to deal with wild beasts.
Walking towards the entrance of the yard, Yunjing was grabbed by Yunshan. When Yunjing was confused, he said: "You are riding a big black, walking is too tiring."
"Okay," Yun Dingding nodded.
With Yunshan¡¯s help, he rode on Dahei¡¯s back, and then the three of them set off.
When the three of them came to the door of the yard, Jiang Susu chased him out and said to Yunjing in a complicated tone: "Xiaojing, don't be nervous. When the time comes, just answer honestly when Mr. Li asks you anything." It's fine¡¡"
Yunjing knew that her mother wanted to comfort and cheer herself up, but she was afraid that it would affect her mood by telling her not to be sad if the final result was not good.
Being a mother is really not easy.
"Mom, I understand. You should go back and rest. You probably didn't get much sleep last night." Yunjing, who was riding on Dahei's back, turned around and said.
Jiang Susu nodded and said, "Mom, I understand, Xiaojing, don't look back, go forward!"
"Okay," Yunjing said seriously.
Looking back, looking ahead, the three of them, grandfather and grandson, set off in the direction of Niujiao Town.
Inexplicably, Yunjing¡¯s nose felt a little sore.
Jiang Susu stood at the door, her expression alternated with expectation and worry. She watched them gradually go away and slowly disappear into the darkness of the morning. She kept standing there and staring. The morning dew was heavy, but she seemed not to notice it
Yunjing rode Dahei, and Yunlin and Yunshan walked on the road one after another without saying a word. They didn't know how to encourage Yunjing, and they didn't know whether they should say comforting words if the apprenticeship failed. They were all afraid of affecting the cloud scenery, so they had no choice but to remain silent.
On the way, Yunjing, who was bored, was guessing what he would face next. After much deliberation, he had no idea. He might as well wait until the time comes, and just use the soldiers to cover up the water and the earth.
Who knows whether he can succeed in becoming a disciple, and he is not sure, so he just needs to work hard.
On the way, he was bored and found that Dahei had something other than himself, which was hung on Dahei by a basket device.
A chicken, a piece of bacon, and some eggs!
Yunjing probably guessed that these were gifts prepared by his family. Normally, his family would be reluctant to eat these things all year round, especially the bacon. He didn¡¯t know when they prepared them.
You can imagine how much your family has paid for you (remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
