A lucky wife born again from a farm family

Chapter 976: The poison won’t kill you

After hearing this, the ancient prefect praised: "You are very good at solving crossword puzzles." It was really ironic.

Holding benevolence and righteousness in his left hand, and a three-foot sword in his right hand, he can cut through all directions with one move and kill a heart with viciousness... He seemed to see a picture of a person who studied hard in a poor family, but in the end killed his original intention for the sake of merit.

Ancient Magistrate: "..."

Hiss~

Why do you feel like your face hurts? It felt like someone had slapped me in the face.

He will never admit that he has become bad. He is still the kind scholar who studied hard and wanted to be an official!

The ancient magistrate suppressed the feeling of being slapped in the face and said to Xue De: "The time limit is quarter of an hour, let's start guessing."

A quarter of an hour is not short, and this is the amount of time it usually takes to guess crossword puzzles at literary meetings.

Then he looked at the other children present and said, "If you want to help Xue De, you can also answer."

this……

The children who had previously helped Xue De were in trouble. They could see that the prefect was obviously angry, angry that they did not understand the rules and dared to cause trouble in the government office.

After hearing this, how could he dare to help Xue De? He shook his head hurriedly and said: "The competition is one-on-one, and with Brother Xue's talent, he can't beat him with a word puzzle."

Xue De was so angry that his face turned green. He pointed at those people and wanted to curse, but due to the presence of the ancient prefect, he could only suppress his anger and said: "I can handle a small word puzzle. I don't need help from my brothers."

Brother Cheng smiled and said to him, "Guess then."

Xue De choked and wanted to break Brother Cheng's head. This little brat was so damn hateful. What on earth was he thinking? The puzzles he came up with were so weird.

"You don't need to rush me. I still have a quarter of an hour. I can just tell you the answer when the time comes."

But Xue De's words were strong, but there was no clue in his mind... Holding benevolence and righteousness in his left hand, and a three-foot sword in his right, he could cut through all directions with one move and kill a heart with evil intent.

What the hell is this? It makes no sense at all!

Yao Youqian smiled beside him and said, "What about Xue De? If you can't guess it, then just admit defeat."

Xue De said angrily: "Shut up, you bastard! Don't interrupt my young master's train of thought here."

Yao Youqian sneered: "There are so many people at the cultural fair and the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival, which are even noisier than here. How come others can guess the riddles, but you can't."

After saying this, Xue De could not speak, and then asked the ancient prefect: "Excuse me, magistrate, the students have already received the documents to establish their careers and are on the official roll of merit. Are the high-ranking children also low-ranking?"

You really think it's so easy to scold farmers when they are scolded and scolded as low-income people from the market?

Xue De's face turned pale, and then he came to his senses. Yao Youqian was already a child student. To scold him was equivalent to scolding the ancient magistrate who gave him the qualification of a child student. He hurriedly said to the ancient magistrate: "Master magistrate, the student just made an unintentional mistake. Please Please forgive me."

The Xue family is a wealthy family in the city, and they have given many benefits to the government officials over the years. The ancient prefect did not want to fall out with the Xue family, so he said: "I only have half a quarter of an hour left to guess your crossword puzzle."

After hearing this, Xue De became even more anxious, with cold sweat breaking out on his back. He looked at the children around him and asked for help from those he was friends with, but those people had never heard of this word puzzle and couldn't guess it for a while.

Brother Cheng seemed to be hungry after waiting. He took out a snack from the small bag on his waist and looked at Xue De while eating.

Xue De was so tempted by him that he wanted to hit someone, so he glared at him fiercely.

Brother Cheng grinned, bared his teeth, and rolled his eyes, smiling at Xue De.

Uh, Xue De was stunned and jumped in anger.

But he couldn't beat a child in front of the ancient prefect, so he could only sulk, but the angrier he got, the less he could think of an answer.

Time passed little by little, and finally...

"The time has come." Gu Zhifu looked at Xue De and said, "You lose."

Xue De was stunned and shocked: "Lost? Impossible... There is something wrong with this word puzzle!"

Yao Youqian scolded: "Ah, Xue De, can you give me another reason? It's really shameless to say that there is something wrong with the crossword puzzle every time you can't guess it."

Xue De was angry and anxious, but he just didn't want to admit defeat.

Although the ancient magistrate didn't want to break up with the Xue family, he could still teach Xue De a lesson. He said to Xue De calmly: "You can't guess it, but I guessed it. The answer to this crossword puzzle is a virtue." Character."

After saying that, he looked at Brother Cheng and asked, "Is that right?"

Brother Cheng nodded with a smile: "Yes, the magistrate guessed it right, it is the word "德"."

He muttered again: "The old man in the dream was indeed right. Only a virtuous person can guess the answer to this crossword puzzle."

The ancient magistrate was stunned and laughed. He was scolding Xue De for his lack of virtue.

The ancient prefect took a few steps forward, touched Brother Cheng's head, and praised: "You are a smart boy. You must study hard in the future and become famous like your elder brother."

This statement vindicated Brother Cheng's name, saying that he was a normal and smart child, not a fool as the rumors said.

Brother Cheng nodded obediently and promised: "Well, this junior will definitely study hard, get a good name in the future, and run errands for the prefect."

These words made the ancient prefect laugh out loud. This child was so good at flattering him at such a young age. He was complimenting him for becoming a high official in the future.

Gu Jinan was a little sad. For Cheng Geer, his brother who was eleven years younger than him, he only hoped that he could live a simple and happy life, but reality did not allow it. He could only teach Cheng Geer to be a smart and sensible person. Brother can protect himself.

The ancient magistrate looked at Xue De and said, "You are already a weakling. You are now an adult. Focus on the college exam. Don't compete with a child. It's embarrassing."

Xue De blushed at the words, and he hated Gu Jincheng in his heart. This little fool dared to come up with crossword puzzles to ridicule his lack of virtue. He, he... just wait for him!

Don't keep waiting for you. You should be waiting for revenge.

Gu Jinan bowed his hands to the ancient magistrate and thanked him: "Student, thank you very much, the magistrate, for judging your younger brother."

The ancient magistrate said: "It's just a small effort, no need to say thank you."

Then he asked: "Why haven't your cousin and clan brothers arrived yet? They are the only ones who haven't received the documents for establishing their business."

Qi Kangming and others had been waiting outside the courtyard gate for a long time. Hearing this, they hurried in and said, "My lord, forgive me, the students are late."

The ancient prefect looked at them and said, "No problem, come in and take away your business documents."

As he said that, he turned around and walked towards the previous official's room.

Qi Kangming and the others hurriedly followed.

Gu Jinan nodded to them... This was also his arrangement. He had long expected that someone would find trouble with Brother Cheng. In order to train Brother Cheng, he deliberately came to the government office separately from Qi Kangming and the others.

He also asked Qi Kangming and the others to wait if they see Brother Cheng being embarrassed after they arrive, and wait until Brother Cheng has solved the problem on his own before coming in. Don't be afraid that he will be bullied and come out to help him.

Qi Kangming and the others quickly received the documents for establishing their business, and then followed the ancient prefect to a banquet.

While the government office was having a banquet, Mr. Shi was also holding a banquet for those talented candidates who had failed the exam, as if he wanted to compete with the prefect.

But Mr. Shi was unlucky. After eating a piece of puffer fish, he was poisoned and fell to the ground.

The people at the banquet were frightened, but it was the people from the Shi family who reacted first and shouted loudly: "Go and call the doctor quickly, Uncle Thirteenth Clan has fainted!"
