Farmhouse is so old

Chapter 116

"Everyone, let him be quiet first, and back away." Seeing that he was a little uncomfortable, Tang Qing was afraid that he would have difficulty breathing, so he asked everyone to clear the way and not to surround him too tightly.

When the surrounding people heard Tang Qing's voice, they involuntarily slowed down and stopped.Looking at the scholar, seeing that he was really uncomfortable, the people in front gradually backed away.

After a while, a large space was vacated in the middle, and the crowd outside surrounded the city, forming an encirclement circle, surrounding Xiucai and Tang Qing.

When Tang Qing and the scholar were the only ones left in the circle, everyone could see clearly that Sir Alexis was also in the crowd. In other words, Sir Alexis was also the one who just came to chase people, so they also It can be regarded as the person who ran with Sir Alex together.

Looking at the scholar they were chasing just now, his face was pale, and he looked extremely difficult to breathe. Everyone guessed that he might need a while, and hurried him, just wait patiently,

There are also some people who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, and carry a ponytail with them. Seeing that everyone is not in a hurry, they take out the ponytail to spread it out, find a place to sit, and even take out a few handfuls of melon seeds from their pockets, and share them with others. Everyone, smash melon seeds to death on the spot.

Tang Qing went over to ask for a handful of melon seeds, and seeing that the scholar was almost out of breath, he kowtowed and said, "Tell me about it yourself, why did you come back alone among the more than 50 people who went with you, and why didn't you report it during the period?" When the letter came back, everyone was worried to death."

The scholar's face was still a little pale, and his breathing hadn't fully recovered. Hearing Tang Qing's question, he waved his free hand hurriedly, expressing that he had to wait for a while.

Tang Qing shook his head helplessly, seeing that this is the end of just reading and not exercising, but he was panting after getting off the boat and running for two steps. I can't enjoy the blessing for a few days.

The scholar was leaning against the wall with most of his body, bowing his whole body, breathing in fresh air, coughing after a few breaths, his appearance was as embarrassing as he wanted.

After he calmed down, the sharp-eyed Tang Qing could still see a few crystal clear teardrops hanging from the end of his eyes.

The scholar quickly wiped away his tears with his distressed sleeves, and then slowly answered Tang Qing's words: "My lord, we went well all the way to the capital, and we didn't encounter any difficulties. As for the others, they are all waiting Come back together, I can't bear it, so I took the first step."

Tang Qingwen frowned, and just wanted to ask if he had to wait until they came back together, but the scholar answered first.

"We went to Beijing to catch up with the exam this time. There were ten people who passed the Juren exam. The others were all waiting for the results of these ten people who passed the exam. That's why everyone didn't come back." To be able to have their glory, and to be able to pass ten Juren exams at a time, it can be said that they have stole the limelight when they go to the capital again.

The crowd immediately went into an uproar. In previous years, it would be a great surprise to get one in the exam. I didn't expect to get ten in a row this time, which really made everyone overjoyed.

"What you said is true!" There were a few disbelieving people in the crowd who cast doubtful eyes on Xiucai.

The scholar looked at everyone's questioning eyes, and looked very fearless. Instead, he said proudly: "Of course it is true. Even the emperor opened his mouth and said that our Wenshui Town is a good place with outstanding people. Now our town can It can be regarded as famous in Shanghai."

The pride on Xiucai's face could not be concealed after he finished speaking, he was no longer in a state of embarrassment just now, and he even tidied up some wrinkled corners of his clothes contentedly, as if he wasn't the one who made a fool of himself just now.

"Then tell me quickly, those ten people won the election." There were several anxious voices in the crowd, but because there were too many people, it was impossible to see who asked.

However, from the anxious tone, everyone can still guess that the family members of the scholars who are rushing to take the exam are asking if they are close to each other. Only they are eager to know whether their scholars won the exam or not.

The scholar straightened his sleeves, cleared his throat, and then announced a series of lists.Although he didn't win the exam, he was honored.

A few of them heard the name in their hearts, and immediately shouted in surprise: "I got it, I got it."

The others immediately cast envious glances at him, and those who didn't win were disappointed, and then cheered up for those who won. Anyway, today is a good day.

Standing in the crowd, Tang Qing also seemed extremely happy. For no reason, there were two names in the list that the scholar just reported: Song Chengyun and Liu Yuancong.

Two people in his family won the election. Affected by the crowd, Tang Qing couldn't wait to tell his family the good news.

Seeing that the surroundings were surrounded by crowds, Tang Qing had no choice but to sneak through the crowds, find a remote alley with few people, walk in, and drive home all the way.

"Qingzi, let's go, let's open the warehouse today, go to the warehouse and get a few bottles of good wine to drink. If you are happy today, you have to drink enough. You should also drink two glasses."

As soon as Tang Qing got home, he leaned against the edge of the bedroom door, knocked on the door, and said excitedly,

Zhou Qing stayed with the child, tired all day, finally put Tang Yuan to sleep, and sat at the table leisurely making two clothes, when he heard Tang Qing knocking on the door, shouting at the top of his voice, give him Not clear.

Zhou Qing angrily walked out the door with the sewing basket in his hand, threw the sewing basket on the ground, and said angrily, "I finally put your son to sleep at home, and you make such a fuss, and he will wake you up later." Coax yourself."

Zhou Qing softened his tone just after he finished speaking, thinking that it was not easy for Tang Qing to run around outside to earn money, but he felt a little sullen when he heard that Tang Qing wanted to drink.

"Look at the sky, it's still a long time before dinner, just wait, bring it to dinner, I'll warm you two bottles of good wine for you to drink enough." Zhou Qing was very angry at first, but said In the end, his tone softened. Looking at the sky, he found himself a step down.

Tang Qing refused. Of course, wine should be drunk when everyone is happiest. When it gets dark, his excitement has passed, and drinking will no longer be fun.

"Drink, drink, drink, you know how to drink. If you are drunk, don't run up to feed your son in the middle of the night. I don't want to be fed by you in the middle of the night." Seeing that Tang Qing didn't listen, Zhou Qing had to find out from the room. A bunch of keys came and handed them to Tang Qing reluctantly.

Holding the key, Tang Qing wanted to quickly run to the warehouse to get the wine, but Zhou Qing stopped him.

"Wait, why did you suddenly think of drinking today?" Zhou Qing was a little puzzled. In the past, Tang Qing rarely drank at home. Crying for wine like this is very rare.

Tang Qing slapped his forehead, he was so happy that he forgot the business, and said in a very fast tone: "Liu Yuancong and Mr. Song have both been admitted to Juren, you said it's not a big day, should you bring wine to celebrate?" Have a drink."

"Oh, such a good thing, why didn't you tell me earlier, so that I misunderstood you just now, walk around, I'll get you the best wine." Zhou Qing was still clouded just now after hearing Tang Qing finish. His face turned cloudy and cleared, and he pulled Tang Qing's clothes and quickly walked towards the warehouse, looking even more anxious than Tang Qing.

Seeing Zhou Qing following behind him like this, Tang Qing sniggered. He said he was coming just now, but now it seems that he is even more anxious than him.

Zhou Qing took Tang Qing to the warehouse, quickly opened the door, and pulled out a sandalwood box from the corner, which was filled with Tang Qing's treasured wine.

"Let's drink this today." Zhou Qing knocked on the sandalwood box with his hand, looking at Tang Qing with joy.

Tang Qing stretched out his index finger and shook his hand, disagreeing: "We'll drink this later, come and see me and find you something good."

Tang Qing turned his back to Tang Qing and took out a small colorless wooden box from a corner. He blew away the dust that had been sealed on it, and smiled at Zhou Qing, "Come, take a look at this wine, I guarantee you like it."

Zhou Qing showed disdain on his face. He hadn't seen anything in this warehouse. As for the wine, the wine in his wooden box was the most valuable. Those bottles of wine are worth a lot more.

What good wine can be contained in that inconspicuous little black box in Tang Qing's hand, it must be better than the one in his own hand.

"Hey, in terms of value, the one in my hand is indeed not as valuable as the one in yours, but in terms of novelty, yours is definitely not as good as mine." Tang Qing said with a wicked smile, looking at the box in Zhou Qing's hand.

Zhou Qing was overjoyed when he heard that Tang Qing said that his was not worth as much as his own. Sure enough, his vision was no worse than Tang Qing's. After satisfying his desire to win, he stared straight at the black box in Tang Qing's hand. I want to see what kind of novelty it is.

Tang Qing unhurriedly opened the black box under Zhou Qing's watchful eyes. Inside, there were layers of cotton cloth and cotton wrapped in layers. Layers of layers were carefully uncovered, revealing two glass cups that were not very pure.

This kind of "inferior" glass was nothing to Tang Qing, but Zhou Qing was dumbfounded, his eyes widened and his mouth opened into an "O" shape.

Tang Qing patted Zhou Qing, who was dumbfounded, and said with a smile: "Look stupid, this is a novelty glass that just came out, and it is very precious. Waiting for the matching wine in it."

After Tang Qing finished speaking, he carefully unwrapped the layers of protection again, took out a bottle of wine in a low-quality glass bottle, and gently shook it in front of Zhou Qing.

"Look at the dumbfounded one. The fine wine was brought back from overseas. Today we drink this to celebrate. We poured the bottle in your hand before we could drink two glasses. Let's save it for later tasting. "

The wine in Zhou Qing's hand is a highly pure wine with a high alcohol content and a mellow aroma. It tastes even better after ten or eight years.But with his and Zhou Qing's drinking capacity, it might be impossible to drink too much.

"Wine, isn't that similar to green plum wine?" Zhou Qing murmured the word "wine" in his mouth, then looked up at Tang Qing and asked.

Tang Qing nodded and shook his head: "It's similar, but it's a little different. I'll pour you two glasses later, and you'll know. Use this colored glass."

Tang Qing picked up the two glasses and clinked them together, making a crisp sound, which was pleasing to the ear.

Because of the craftsmanship, this glass is not a goblet, but a pure arc-shaped wine glass, and the workmanship is not very good. It is worse than the street stalls in the world before Tang Qing, but in the eyes of people in this world It is priceless.
