Chapter 3: Three babies

Xu Zhen took the money to leave, but because she offended Shang Shu's granddaughter, she decided to hide at home for a few days and did not go out for the time being.
On the second day, she checked the merit points and found that there were five more merit points, plus the remaining ones before, a total of seven points.
Xu Zhen felt a little strange.
I was paid yesterday, and I don't think it's a good thing. Even if I did it carelessly, I shouldn't have so many merits.
Is Qingfeng Mountain Feng Shui good?
If she didn't understand, she closed the interface and went to the little girl to play.
Xiaohua spent a few days opening her mouth. Although her voice was dumb, she was finally able to express her meaning, but she was introverted and not very talkative. Often Xu Zhen said a few words before she answered.
When Xu Zhen walked over, Xiaohua was chopping wood.
Xu Zhen shook a few times before her.
Seeing that Xiaohua took no notice of herself, she moved into the house and moved the little bamboo chair to sit next to Xiaohua.
She bent over and pressed her upper body to her lap, trying to keep her head flat.
After watching the firewood for a while, he asked: "Where are you from the firewood."
Xiao Hua took a pause in her hand, looked up at Xu Zhen, and replied in a mute voice: "Bamboo forest, picked it up."
Xu Zhen leaned over again and asked, "What are you doing collecting firewood?"
Xiaohua Huahua bowed his head and chopped wood, saying, "Repay the money."
Xu Zhen asked, "Return those twelve that I saved you?"
Xiao Hua said, "Yes."
Xu Zhen explained: "The willingness to pay for that money not only saved your life, but also saved my life. You will be fine even if you don't."
The whistle is not answered.
Xu Zhen said again: "And the firewood you chopped will sell three coppers in a bundle. When will you cut off the twelve?"
Xiao Hua took a small sword with a dark red hilt in her hand, but she just chopped wood.
The first time Xu Zhen saw this little sword, it was clear that the hilt was red, but the blade was green, like rust.
She asked Xiaohua: "Is this your knife?"
Xiao Hua said: "Her name, Hong Yue."
Xu Zhen thought the name was very nice and asked, "Which one is red? Which one is more?"
Xiaohuahua shook his head.
Xu Zhen asked: "Are you illiterate?"
Xiao Xiaohua's white wrist stopped for a moment, and after a long time he answered: "I don't know."
Xu Zhen laughed: "Then I will teach you another day."
After she finished speaking, she thought that when the emperor put emphasis on literacy and vigorously pursued private education, the people of this dynasty almost literate. Even three-year-old children walking on the road, they can say "Gentlemen don't worry."
But Xiaohuahua was illiterate, did he start exile from urination?
She was a bit hungry thinking, went to the kitchen to get a piece of white cake, tore it in half and handed it to Xiaohuahua's mouth: "Open your mouth."
Xiao Hua opened her mouth and took a bite.
Xu Zhen asked: "Will it be too dry?"
Xiao Hua spent a few chews, swallowed and said, "No." After a while, he added, "It's delicious."
Xu Zhen took a bite, but felt it was not very tasty.
The two sat outside chatting.
Xu Zhen asked nonsense, and Xiao Huahua occasionally replied.
If you are asking for name, age, parents, home address, etc., the little girl will keep silent.
Xu Zhen was tired of asking, and sat for a while. After the little girl finally got the sword, she got up and pulled her, and went into the house to wash her face.
Another day later, Xu Zhen opened the stowaway interface as usual.
When I clicked it, I suddenly thought that I didn't go out yesterday. I just wanted to chat with Xiaohua and wanted to turn off the system.
Who knows, with a glance in her eyes, she glanced, her merits became nine o'clock!
More than yesterday!
Xu Zhen was shocked.
She didn't do anything, how could she grow? If I remember correctly, she spent all her time yesterday on Xiaohua, what secrets does Xiaohua have?
In order to verify, Xu Zhen didn't go out in the next two days, staying in the room and chatting with Xiao Huahua - at first it was still chatting, and later became Xu Zhen's one-sided unicorn.
But even so, merit points are still rising.
Sometimes it's two o'clock, and occasionally three o'clock, it's really heart-wrenching.
Xu Zhen was a little excited.
After the merits rose to 19 o'clock, she went out and stayed in the inn for one night without contact with Xiaohua.
The next day, the growth of points was suspended and a little deduction was made.
Xu Zhen is happy to jump.
It turns out that merit points can come so easily? As long as you are with Xiao Hua, you can get merit points!
Where is this fairy called the fairy reincarnation?
Xu Zhen moved to cry.
She hurried home, holding a whispered flower: "God, you are my reborn parent! I will provide you with good things in the future!"
The whispering flower is unknown, and his expression has not changed. Ask: "Why?"
Xu Zhen smiled at her, smiled for a while, let go of her hand, pulled the little girl back to the house, took out a book and said, "Come on, I will teach you how to read."
A few days ago Xiaohua mentioned the name of Xiaojian.
Xu Zhen first taught the word "Hong Yue".
She was unskilled in traditional Chinese characters, ugly in writing, and unskilled in writing brushes. She wrote on rice paper in a twisted and twisted manner, and asked Xiaohua to write according to it.
Xiao Hua wrote twice, and dipped in ink.
Xu Zhen took a towel to wipe her, and moved to a wicker chair, sitting on her lap with a little hooper, holding the little hoopoe halfway, holding her hand, and writing it down stroke by stroke.
The little girl's hand is very white, but not soft, the bones are distinct, and Xu Zhen's hand hurts, and a strange feeling rises in his heart.
After finishing the writing, Xu Zhen got up and asked, "Do you want to try again by yourself?"
She let go of her hand.
The pen held by Xiao Huahua is still very straight, but it has never fallen.
Xu Zhen said: "Write."
The small calligraphy brush hung in the air, paused for a long time, and then said sideways: "I, sit on my own."
Xu Zhen asked: "Are you still shy?"
She let go of her hand and let Xiao Hua spend her knees alone on the side of the case.
Xiao Huahua wrote it twice slowly again, and the final words were almost the same as the italics on the copybook.
Progress is too fast.
Xu Zhen's self-esteem was hurt, and he squatted over and read the little screaming words for a while.
She asked: "Are you literate, have you lied to me before?"
Xiao Hua said: "No."
Xu Zhen thought about it and said, "Then your talent is very good! Let's learn the next one-what's your name?"
Xiaohua did not answer.
Xu Zhen said: "I seem to have asked you before... do you have no name? I'll get one for you, how?"
Chirping lips moved slightly.
Xu Zhen leaned over to listen: "What do you say? Do you have any favorite words?"
The whisperer was silent for a long while, and finally his voice was very low, spit out a word: "Spring."
"Chun? Is that your name." Xu Zhen asked, "What's your last name?"
Xiaohua did not speak again.
Xu Zhen wrote down the word "Spring".
She likes the word very much.
After writing the italics, I wrote the running script again, and the ugly writing became a self-made wild grass.
At this moment, her palm was a little hot.
At first, Xu Zhen ignored it, but her palms became hotter and hotter, making her unable to write with peace of mind.
Is it something wrong with the stowaway system?
Thinking of this assumption, she was a little nervous, and hurriedly handed over the pen to Xiaohua, let Xiaohua write by herself, and quickly ran back to her house.
Inside, a blue light flashed through, and the light blue system interface appeared in front of us.
Xu Zhen looked at merit points, at 18 o'clock, no change.
What could be the problem?
She looked carefully from top to bottom, left and right, and finally saw it. In the lower right corner of the interface, there were two more glittering things.
One is the "main line" and the other is the "mall".
Xu Zhen felt quite novel, so he clicked in and looked at it. The main line was opened first.
A line was written in the main line interface: "Become a teacher of Qinglongshan Academy (0/1)
Success reward: merit points +50.
Failure punishment: none. "
What is this?
Xu Zhen almost spit out old blood.
She offended someone in the college a few days ago and was kicked out by Shan Chang. Do you want her to work in the college now? Isn’t this going to give people a head?
Fortunately, there is no punishment...
Xu Zhen reluctantly stared at fifty merits for a long time, and finally returned to the main menu.
Then click to open the mall.
The things in the mall are divided into two rows, a total of eight things, two books in blue, seem to be martial arts cheats, and some are medicines, I don't know what they do.
The cheapest bottle of medicine requires 500 points of merit, and the remaining seven or eight hundred. The books are more expensive and cost one thousand and two.
Xu Zhen couldn't afford it, and closed the page in tears.
These two new functions are useless, but just empty.
Xu Zhen was very disappointed and got up to continue to teach Xiao Hua to learn literacy.
But when she thought that she no longer had to worry about merit, she became better again.
Three or four days later, the willow shoots the shore, and the summer gradually gets hot.
Xu Zhen made two half-sleeved shirts for herself and Xiaohua, and wore them at home.
During this time, she asked the parents of the younger girl a few times, and the younger girl said nothing, just chopping wood.
Xu Zhen went to ask the owner of Yunmofang, and learned that Xiaohua should be away from her parents and lived alone.
She was distressed. She asked the meaning of Xiaohua. After getting affirmation, she waited for a certain day to be empty, so she went directly to Lizheng to re-register, which cost a lot of money.
At the same time, she found that the money she had made was almost exhausted.
And I don’t know why recently, she was very unlucky and couldn’t find a place to work.
In order not to drink the northwest wind, she sat on the side of the road and meditated. After half a day, she thought that the books she had sold in Yunmofang had not received the money, so she went to the bookstore.
The gate of Yunmofang was opened, forming a square mouth. There were few people in the afternoon, and the guests inside were sparse.
When the owner is away, Xu Zhen and the servants talk to ask for money.
The servant looked through the books.
After verification, she was annoyed and told her: "I didn't sell any of them."
Xu Zhen didn't believe: "This is the imperial examination textbook, how can it not be sold? Is it that people are so disrespectful now?"
The servant said: "Nothing to see! You can't write it yourself. Other scholars also wrote about the imperial examination experience and sold it out!"
Xu Zhen felt very sad and said, "It's too far-sighted. Give it back to me. I won't sell it."
The servant had long suspected the place and wanted her to take it back. When she said that, she immediately entered the house and moved the book out: "Take it and take it."
Xu Zhen bent over and hugged the book, and when she picked it up, she thought that she had paid the trusteeship fee.
Can't help but take the face.
So she picked up two books and returned the rest: "It's still here as usual!" And she ran after pulling the leg.
The loess flew up and raised behind her.
After being stunned for a while, the servant scolded in place: "Shameless! Shameless!!"
Xu Zhen held two books and walked on the way back. Her heart was cold and ice blown by Xia Feng.
If her previous life was a manual job, she would not be so hit.
But her previous life was to rely on knowledge and words to eat. Originally a university professor, she later offended people and went to remote areas to teach.
She worked as a high school teacher in the mountain area for five years. After wearing it, she first learned that the original owner was a vulgar vulgar, and now she sells teaching materials, but others don't know the goods.
What a shock!
Xu Zhen was sad.
She thought of the salary paid by Qinglongshan Academy and the tasks distributed by the system. Is it true that she really has to be cheeky to get a job?
... or be patient.
Noisy markets.
Some people came out to set up stalls, put minced meat and liver on wooden wheels, and put on discs and knives. They stood naked by the side of the car, as powerful as Guan Gong.
Xu Zhen glanced at the meat in the car and realized that she couldn't afford it and did not stay.
A few steps forward, Hu merchants are selling grapes.
Xu Zhen hadn't eaten grapes for a long time, and itchy for a moment, trotting over, the probe asked how much money.
Hu Shang had a strong accent and could not speak clearly.
Xu Zhen directly took out three dollars and bought a small string.
That's Hu Shang's quack.
Xu Zhen thought that the little girl at home was also a Hu, and asked the Hu merchant: "Which ethnic group are you from?"
Hu Shang paused and said, "Hu Xia."
Xu Zhen asked: "Isn't Hu Xia in the north, how do you sell grapes?"
Hu Shang was again in a hurry, Xu Zhen didn't understand, nodded, and was about to go home, and suddenly saw two books in his arms.
She felt her eyes hurt, and quickly took out a copy and handed it to Hu Shang, and said: "It is not easy to do business. Look at the imperial examination book and take the imperial examination next year."
Hu Shangji said in a snap.
Xu Zhen was somewhat moved and said, "I don't need to know my name, I'm doing good."
She said she had to leave.
There was a woman's voice beside him: "The price of the book is not cheap, how can you give it away in vain?"
Xu Zhen turned her head to see and saw a woman wearing a light green left kilt dress and a peach makeup, holding a bag of lotus leaves in her hands.
It seems to be a rich man.
Xu Zhen said honestly: "Can't sell."
The woman asked, "What did you write?"
Xu Zhen nodded: "I wrote it, maybe it was so good that ordinary candidates can't understand it."
The woman smiled: "I rarely see you as shameless."
She smiled, if there were peach blossoms on her face.
Xu Zhen used to talk casually on weekdays. At that moment, she was embarrassed, so she put another book in her hand and put it in the hands of a woman, saying, "We are destined, and this one is for you."
The woman did not shy away.
When Xu Zhen saw her receiving it, she turned and waved, carrying the grapes and leaving.
Is a weirdo.
The woman in the green shirt commented inwardly that she would not see the figure of Xu Zhen. She raised her hand to read the book cover and found that "The Imperial Examination Guide" was written on it.
Although I don't quite understand what it means, but if I think about it carefully, I can feel a strange domineering.
Holding a book, she carried a lotus leaf bag and continued to go to the restaurant to meet friends.
The restaurant was full, so she found an elegant room on the second floor.
While waiting for a friend, he looked at it while holding a book.
Who knows this book looks thin and thin, but it contains a lot of content. It includes the content of regular science and system science, including arithmetic, astrology, economics, literature and so on.
There is a slight gap with the specific imperial examination project, but the difference is not big.
If you look at it in detail, this book does have some meaning.
Most of the other scholars have written questions that have been tested in previous years, with their own opinions.
This one is different, it is a guess.
Guess a bunch of questions that may be tested this year, and also attach your own insights. There are many problems in Confucianism, and the answers are also written in great detail. The author should be a Confucian student.
The woman in green shirt looked at it, and the more she read it, the more difficult it was to see. It was unique in many places and echoed the New Deal. Although it was not perfect, it gave a feeling of utter silence.
She flipped through halfway, and the small room door was pushed open.
A woman in a red robe came in with a hip flask around her waist and fell on the soft slump, saying she wanted to drink alcohol.
The green-shirt girl was so excited that she hadn't ordered any wine. She first handed the book to her friends and said: "I got a good book today!"
Friends disdain: "How about a good book, can you eat it? Order more quickly."
Green shirt girl said: "It's really a good book. Since you were a prince of wine, you should also be exposed to the imperial examination papers. You may wish to look at this one."
My friend didn't believe it at all, and took the book to read it perfunctoryly. After turning a few pages, I saw nothing remarkable.
She was about to make a mockery and turned the page back easily.
When he saw a certain line of characters, he suddenly sat up straight, his eyes wide, froze for a moment, and turned back.
The green shirt woman asked: "How?"
Friends look up and look complex.
The green shirt woman urged: "Say, how?"
My friend remained silent for a long time, and finally slowly said: "This autumn test questions...it seems that many are in it."
The green shirt girl was shocked when she could not hear this sentence. She didn't know if the subject of the imperial examination was leaked or the author was too powerful.
She asked, "Are you talking nonsense?"
My friend said: "I dare not talk about it." She looked dignified, her drink was sober, and she read through the book carefully. She soon discovered that not only were the topics similar, but also the answers, she was also very neat, compared with what she had seen before When it comes to the question, some of the answers I think are more updated.
This is probably a problem.
The woman in the green shirt said: "The woman who wrote the book looked like a woman for two decades. She didn't dress very well and was a little sloppy."
A friend asked: "Do you think she wrote it?"
The green shirt woman thought for a moment: "No, not like it."
Friends said: "I don't think so."
She didn't think anyone in the world could guess the subject of the imperial examination.
The subjects of the imperial examination are extremely cautious and meticulous each time.
It must be someone who leaked the question.
You still have a face to sell the book? Really shameless and lifeless!
The friend hated contempt and raised his hand to roll the book into his shirt and said, "I will take the book back to see it first."
She got up and was about to leave. She suddenly thought of something and turned back and said, "Do you remember the man's appearance? Draw it to me."
The girl in green shirt did not dare to joke with her friend, and asked the servant to borrow paper and pen and draw it to her.
On the rice paper, a few withered lines outline an abstract face.
