Chapter 30 Fighting in the Academy

Su Shiqin: "..."

Having met many people who are greedy for money, and many slaves who work tirelessly to climb the ladder, this is the first time Su Shiqin has truly realized the truth that money can make the world go round.

Su Shiqin and Nalan announced the date of their medical visit and they would meet at the teahouse tomorrow.

Nalanjing nodded and looked at Su Shiqin: "Did Mr. Su forget something?"

In the past, Su Shiqin would not have understood what it meant, but after Rong Qian's last "pointing out", Su Shiqin instantly understood and took out a one hundred tael silver note as a deposit for a medical visit.

Nalanjing suddenly smiled and said seriously: "I am a doctor and I will do my best to diagnose and treat you. Please rest assured, Mr. Su."

Su Shiqin nodded: "Then I will wait for my sister-in-law at the teahouse tomorrow at midnight. We can set off early and reach Fucheng before dark."

Nalanjing stuffed the banknotes into his sleeves and stood up to say goodbye.

Su Shiqin also wanted someone to take her back in a carriage, but she declined.

Chen Li watched the little woman leave, then entered the side room, closed the door, and walked to Su Shiqin's side respectfully.

"Master, Miss Rong is the bride of the Rong family. If those people in Beijing know that we are involved with the Rong family, will it implicate the master?" Chen Li asked worriedly.

Su Shiqin checked their identities, and Chen Li naturally knew their origins.

Su Shiqin glanced at him. He was an approachable young man just now, but now his eyebrows were stern, and he said: "My eldest brother can't survive, so why should I care about you?"

Chen Li's worried expression immediately faded away, and he shrank aside without daring to make a sound.

Su Shiqin didn't get a response. He was obviously still angry. He tilted his body and said slowly: "He doesn't care about my eldest brother. It doesn't matter. My eldest brother went there that day. I will let the entire second room of the Su family be buried with him!"

Su Shiqin's father, Su Zhi, went to Beijing to be the direct descendant of the second wife of the Marquis of Wuhou, so that the second wife was buried with him, not even himself.

Chen Li immediately shut his mouth even tighter. If he had known better, he wouldn't have said that.

Su Shiqin and Su Zhi didn't get along. The father and son were not like father and son, but more like enemies.

After Nalanjing came out of the teahouse, it was already getting late. She estimated the time and decided to go to Qingshan Academy.

The last time Rong Yu went to ask for the exam, Nalanjing had never been there, so she only knew how to get there after asking for directions.

The admissions examination of Qingshan Academy is strict, but it is not the same as the provincial examination. It takes three days and three nights, and only one subject is tested, which is the eight-part essay, which is one of the most important weights in the imperial examination. The examination lasts for one hour and a quarter of an hour.

The teahouse is quite far from the college, and it took half an hour to walk there.

_

When Rong Qian and Rong Yu arrived at the academy, it was not yet time to enter the examination room. The two squatted outside the academy for a long time. During this period, many students looked at them with mocking looks.

Studying costs money. Those who can afford to study must have no shortage of money at home. It is rare for people like Rong Qian and Rong Yu to wear coarse linen clothes.

Rong Yu's mind was deep and her joy and anger were invisible.

Rong Qian was a thick-skinned man. When someone passed by with their shoes pressing down on his legs and feet in the name of passing by without him noticing, he did not hesitate to trip the person down and punch him.

"Ah..." The man screamed, covering his painful nose with nosebleeds on his hands.

Rong Qian kicked the man out, took his second brother and ran away.

Others did not expect Rong Qian to be so bold as to hit someone directly. Before they could react, the two people had already escaped.

The man got up from the ground miserably, shouting angrily that he wanted to report him to the officials and let them arrest him.

The people accompanying him heard that there was going to be a big fuss, and started to persuade him again. Today was the college's admissions examination, and they did not want to be questioned by the officials and delay the examination.

The man did not expect that he just wanted to bully two little farm boys, but he received a punch and a kick. However, they ran away too fast, so he could only give up temporarily.

The monks who could run away could not run away from the temple. He would deal with them after the exam was over.

After Rong Qian pulled Rong Yu away and ran away, he wandered around the town for a quarter of an hour. When the time was almost up, he returned to the academy to take the exam.

At this time, the door of the academy has been opened, and the candidates who were piled up at the door entered one after another. They followed the crowd and accepted the inspection before entering.

The exam lasted for more than an hour. When it was over, Rong Qian rushed over to find Rong Yu, grabbed the person and ran away, for fear of being caught.

Although he was not afraid of fighting, he just didn't want them to find him as they wished and make them uncomfortable, so he felt comfortable.

As soon as they ran out of the street, they bumped into Nalanjing who was looking for them.

"Sister-in-law!" Rong Qian saw Nalanjing's eyes light up, then his face tightened, and he said quickly: "Sister-in-law, run!"

In view of the lessons learned from Rong Qian running away with Liu Yan, Nalanjing didn't waste any time and quickly followed the two brothers to a safe corner of the street.

Nalanjing glanced behind him and saw that no one was chasing him. He couldn't help but ask: "Isn't it an exam? Is there another fight?"

The person who asked was naturally Rong Qian, Rong Yu never caused trouble.

Rong Qian calmed down and then told what happened at the entrance of the college before the exam.

He and Rong Yu originally thought Nalan Jing would be unhappy.

Rong Yu was about to excuse his second brother when he heard Nalan Jing say: "Why are you running away like this?"

Nalanjing clenched his fists: "Let's go back and wait for them!"

Rong Qian looked at Rong Yu. He was right. His sister-in-law seemed very angry?

It wasn't like he was angry that he was getting into fights and causing trouble. He couldn't guess what exactly he was angry about.

Rong Yu frowned: "Sister-in-law, forget it, they will report to the official later and we will be in trouble."

Nalanjing looked back at him, with a smile shining in his eyes, but like a cluster of flames, and said lightly: "Even if you are the reporter, you must convince them, so that you can study in peace from now on."

After Nalanjing finished speaking, he turned around and walked back without waiting for them to hesitate.

Rong Qian and Rong Yu's brows twitched at the same time. They had always thought that their elder sister-in-law was virtuous and a role model for a sister-in-law who was like a mother. They thought that there should always be female teachers teaching women the Four Books in the Palace Protector's Palace in Shangjing, but they didn't expect...

This is more fearless than Rong Qian, the little bully who once went to Beijing!

Nalanjing often worked in the fields, his fair complexion turned red, and his legs and feet were strong. After a while, he had returned to the entrance of the academy.

At this time, the exam was over, and there were no guards at the gate of the academy. A group of men gathered around the door and were talking, while a few others were staring at the gate of the academy, mumbling curses.

Nalanjing waited for Rong Qian to catch up, then pulled Rong Qian and pushed him towards the man.

The man with a bruised nose saw Rong Qian, surrounded by his companions. Since they were all trying to deal with Rong Qian, he was not afraid of causing trouble, so he immediately raised his fist and hit her.

He is a nearly adult man of seventeen or eighteen years old. Rong Qian is only eleven years old. In their eyes, Rong Qian is like a farmhouse man. If he had not been unprepared at first, he would not have been tripped and hit.

He was punched and kicked.

At this moment, he punched down and smashed this wild boy's head out of the hole.
