Chapter 55

Maybe he was pretending to be in his heart. Xu Jin woke up before dawn the next day, but there was no one around him.

She rubbed her eyes and found herself back on the bedding. The room was quiet and the window was closed there, as if everything from last night was just a dream.

Is it a dream?

Xu Jin remembered that when she raised her hand, she felt something was wrong. She looked down and found that she only had a single dress left on her body, and her collar was still open.

Qi Jing...

The little girl blushed in anger, gritted her teeth, and swore that she would never let Qi Jing enter her room again!

.

The two brothers Qi Jing and Qi Heng went to participate in the provincial examination again.

It seems that this year, most of the topics of the Qi and Xu family have revolved around their exams.

Needless to say, the Qi family values ​​it, the Xu family, before the two children got engaged, Qi Jing and Qi Heng were considered Xu You's students, and Xu You certainly hoped that they would do better in the exam.

After getting engaged, that will be the future in-laws, how can you not pay attention to it?

However, in this provincial examination, Mr. Qi only had high expectations for Qi Jing.

First of all, Qi Jing showed great talent in martial arts practice and battlefield strategy. The martial arts examination is the main test of his own kung fu. As long as Qi Jing performs as usual, there is absolutely no problem with taking a good ranking.

As for Qi Heng, his qualifications are not as good as the best. His biological father is far inferior to Xu You. In addition, he is young, this provincial examination is just a test. Even if he can pass, he will not let Qi Heng participate in the palace examination next year. The young man should practice his mind and character. After three years of precipitation, it is a good time.

Qi Jing didn't care about the old man's encouragement and expectations. He was very confident in himself. It was not something that others could discourage or be motivated by just a few words.

Qi Heng knew that he was young and didn't value this exam much. His grandfather was optimistic about his elder brother and did not affect his mood. But he was still envious and even a little jealous of Qi Jing, and of course he felt a little frustrated, because his elder brother got his wish and got engaged to his lover, and Cui Xiao had to stay mourning for three years.

Qi Heng wanted to pass the exam for the scholar, so he went to Cui's family to propose marriage. This would have to wait until three years later. However, the family would return to Beijing after autumn. Because the elder brother no longer had a quarrel with his family, his grandfather and grandmother decided to live in the capital in the future. So when he would come back next time...

Before we can separate, the sorrow of separation has already climbed into our hearts.

After not seeing her for three years, Qi Heng could not imagine how difficult that day would be.

Moreover, in front of him, there were parents who he didn't even dare to ask easily, and there were brother Cui who obviously didn't like him. Qi Heng was not sure what would be like in three years, whether his parents would agree to him, and whether Brother Cui Xiao would make her a reservation in advance.

All he could do was to first refuse any marriage arranged by his mother, and then after he succeeded, his parents would look at him and tell them that the only person he wanted to marry was Cui Xiao.

The two brothers set out with different moods, and the Qi family next door suddenly became much quieter.

After Qi Jing left, Xu Jin stayed in the house and felt depressed. She knew from Qi Jing that the Qi family was about to leave soon. She also knew that Qi Jing planned to stay here to accompany her, but his grandfather refused, saying that he had returned to Beijing early to allow Qi Jing to reappear among relatives and friends and build connections, which would be beneficial or harmful to his future career.

Xu Jin understands, but even if Qi Jing promised her that she would write letters to her often and then pick her up in front of the gate of the capital next year when they passed by, she was still reluctant to leave, for half a year...

"Why doesn't Ajin eat vegetables?

Is today's food worth your appetite?"

She was stunned while pinching the chopsticks there. When Xu You saw it, he asked with concern.

"No, it's delicious."

Xu Jin came back to his senses, picked up a piece of eggplant clip and put it in a bowl, and then ate in a small sip.

When did your heartless daughter become so listless?

It’s all Qi Jing!

Xu You looked at Jiang's family, and Jiang nodded helplessly. Xu You said, "A Jin, our family and the Qi family go to the capital in September."

The palace examinations were held in the capital. In the last two steps of the imperial examination, it not only requires real talent and knowledge, but also requires understanding of all forces in the capital, especially the preferences of the examiner.

After the provincial examination every year, many juren go to Beijing in advance, and each exhibits his or her strengths to win reputation or join the nobles. This will not only broaden your horizons, but also make friends with some noble people. It will be more convenient to become an official in the future and not be blind.

Xu You originally planned to go there after the New Year and wait until everything is settled before picking up the mother and daughter. However, Mr. Qi suggested that he set off earlier before going to the city and introduced a house for them to stay temporarily.

After discussing with his wife, Xu You decided to accept Mr. Qi's kindness.

He wanted his wife to be at ease when she was around, while Jiang heard from Mrs. Qi that the house was quiet and suitable for her husband to study.

Of course, now seeing her daughter being so distracted, the couple think that this decision has been made right.

If a girl is old, her heart will fly to that boy Qi Jing.

Go together?

Xu Jin suddenly looked up and looked at his father with a burning look, "Really, go together?"

"Really, are you happy now?"

Xu You smiled and joked about his daughter.

Xu Jin was so excited now that he wouldn’t be shy about a joke or two and asked curiously: “Where do we live?”

Jiang wiped his mouth for Brother Xi, turned around and continued, "You Grandpa Qi has already arranged the place for us. You just need to follow us obediently, and you don't have to worry about anything.

However, I heard that the house is quite far from Qi Jing’s house, and it takes a quarter of an hour to take a car..."

A quarter of an hour is indeed far enough compared to the current two families walking more than twenty steps away.

"mother……"

This time, Xu Jin finally felt embarrassed and called her mother cutely, and then lowered her head to have a meal, not daring to look at her parents' unspeakable gaze.

But she was really happy, so happy that the corners of her mouth were always on the verge of her mouth.

If she goes to the capital together, she won’t have to be separated from Qi Jing for a long time.

Although she may not be able to meet each other often when she is in the same place, she feels at peace when she thinks that Qi Jing is by her side, which is completely different from the feeling of being separated from two places.

After dinner, her father went to the study room, and Xu Jin and her mother took care of their younger brother. After Brother Xi fell asleep, she suddenly thought of something: "Mom, we will leave in September. Will we come back in the future?"

The departure date suddenly got ahead, and there was not much time left for her to meet and talk to Cui Xiao.

If my father really became an official in the capital, wouldn’t it be difficult for her and Cui Xiao to meet again?

She grew up with Cui Xiao, and her own sisters may not be as good as them...

Xu Jin became depressed. She was happy to be with Qi Jing, but she really couldn't bear to part with Cui Xiao.

Jiang touched his daughter's head and sighed softly, but couldn't comfort her. She could only say, "While you are still a neighbor, go find Xiaoxiao more before leaving.

A Jin, don’t be too sad. Although you don’t live next to each other, you can still write a letter. Besides, Xiaoxiao will also get married in the future. If the place where she married happens to be close to the capital, you can also walk around more if it’s convenient for you.”

There is always separation in life. Maybe it is difficult to meet again after separation. Maybe, one day you suddenly meet by chance. Who can tell me it accurately?

.

The results of the provincial examination came out soon.

Qi Jing is the martial arts master of our family. Qi Heng also passed the exam. He was only ranked lower. But he was only fourteen years old. He was able to win a quota among the many students gathered among the young and old. It was enough to make the old scholars who had white hair but still failed the exam.

Both grandsons at home were very honored. The Qi family held a banquet for guests for three days, which was very lively.

After the fun, I have to pack my luggage and return to Beijing.

Qi Jing was not very happy to see him. After learning that the Xu family would go over together, his joy was beyond words. Perhaps only the blind man could not see it. In this way, he offended two people in an instant.

One was naturally because Qi Heng, who had no chance to see Cui Xiao and the pressure of separation, made the corners of his mouth blister, and the other was Xu You, who visited the Qi family.

Why are the silly boy happy? Are you happy to be close to your daughter?

Unfortunately, they were so angry that Qi Jingzhao was happy. She pretended to be reading books in the house during the day. She played a few more games with the old man because she was in a good mood. Then when night fell, she sneaked to the Xu family to hug him.

The little girl still refused to let him take off her clothes, but Qi Jing was very satisfied if he could hold her.

And Qi Jing discovered something. The more he was, the more the little girl seemed to like him. This time, when Zhong Jieyuan went to find her for the first time, Xu Jin actually took the initiative to kiss him. Zhong Xiucai didn't get such a reward that time.

"A Jin, kiss me again."

He knew the taste of food, Qi Jing hugged Xu Jin and said softly.

"Not kissing."

Xu Jin poked him hard, "You have been here three times this month. Don't come again before going to the capital."

She would be worried once he came, and it didn't feel so good.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you well, and you can kiss me again."

Qi Jing's words are quite calculating.

As he learned about Yuan, the reward she gave him now has become three night visits to the boudoir every month. Instead of forcing her to make her angry, he would rather rely on his real skills to slowly earn more rewards.

"You are all Jie Yuan and still talk to me like this. Don't you think it's particularly stupid?"

Xu Jin first kissed Qi Jing's face gently before laughing at him.

Qi Jing is getting better and better, and she is honored and is obedient, so she is willing to meet some of his small requirements and encourage him.

Her lips were warm and soft. Qi Jing chased after her and wanted to kiss her again, but Xu Jin twisted her arm without hesitation.

Qi Jing didn't dare to do it again, but deliberately spoke to her ear: "Why are you stupid?

Besides, it doesn’t matter if you are stupid, I will only say this in front of you.”

He is too lazy to say more to others.

As for her, as long as she can be kissed, he can do even the stupidest things.
