This Second Male Lead Has Something Special

This is too early.

Su Boting didn't even pass the exam, but he already knew his original sister?

But thinking about it, Bi Qiao felt that this was more like a coincidence.

Su Boting was obviously here to pick someone up, and it was impossible for him to bring a girl he just met with him to pick someone up. Wouldn't that be equivalent to meeting the parents?

Su Jianyi is Su Boting's cousin.

If the two of them really knew each other, they would definitely not get together, but should avoid suspicion.

Sure enough, when Su Boting saw them, he didn't say hello to Xi Yihe, who was sitting at the same table, and walked straight forward.

"I thought you would arrive in the next two days, but I didn't expect to meet you so soon." Su Boting greeted them.

Although they are not from the same room, they have exchanged a lot of ideas with each other in the past two years, and their relationship is pretty good. "I have found a place for you to stay. The place is a bit remote, but it is quiet around, so you can calm down and read books."

There is still more than half a month before the county exam.

During this time, you must stay at home and read books well. A quiet place to stay is crucial.

It was a little far from the busiest place, but they were not here for fun, so they had to read books first.

"Okay, okay, let's hurry over there, my old waist is almost broken." Su Jianyi urged, even though the carriage was too well furnished and it was a little uncomfortable after a long time.

He waved his hand and said, "Brother Ting, you come up too, let's go in the carriage."

Su Boting paused slightly, then spoke a few words.

After a while, several people from the Su family looked behind him, nodded, and got off the carriage together.

After a while, Bi Qiao walked towards the tea stall, "Sister, I have a carriage here, do you want me to take you to the nearest clinic?"

Xi Yihe looked up at her.

Obviously, she was a stranger, and she should have refused, but for some reason, she looked at the look in the eyes of the visitor and couldn't help being a little stunned.

Bi Qiao followed up and said, "I think it's going to rain soon. If you stay here, you might get wet. Why don't I take you to the nearest clinic first and come back to pick up the family later?"

I definitely can't leave with the men of the Su family in a carriage.

What she meant was that she would take Xi Yi and the two servants to the clinic alone.

"How can I be so embarrassed..." Xi Yi naturally understood. Looking at the gloomy sky, it really looked like it was going to rain.

However, the two had never met before, so how could they be so embarrassed to bother others.

I didn't think the other party had any bad intentions. It was obvious that the little girl and the scholar just now were from the same family. The scholar must have told her about her leg injury, so he wanted to help her.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look past the little girl and behind her.

However, before she could see the scholar standing across the street, the little girl took a step forward to block her view, "I'll help my sister over there. It only takes a while to get to the clinic, so it won't take too long."

"This..."

"Then I'll trouble this girl." The little maid quickly agreed. Her girl's ankle was swollen, and she wanted to carry her to the clinic directly. Now there was a carriage willing to help send her, which was naturally the best.

In this way, one person supported one side and carefully helped Xi Yihe onto the carriage.

When Xi Yihe left, the three people of the Su family went around and sat in the previous teahouse, and did not have any contact with her, obviously to avoid suspicion.

Su Jianyi sat on the table, "This Nanlin City looks much more prosperous than before. When I came here before, I just found an inn to stay in. There were more than a dozen people sleeping in the same bunk bed, which cost dozens of coins a day."

As he said this, he found an excuse for why he failed the exam, "It's obviously because I didn't live well. How can I concentrate on studying in such a noisy place? It must be because of this that I didn't pass the exam before."

Su Lin picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of tea, "Then if I live well this time, Dad will definitely pass the exam. Congratulations to Dad first."

"..."Su Jianyi didn't feel happy at all.

How could he respond to this?

What if he didn't pass the exam, wouldn't he have no excuse?

No, no, why hasn't the carriage come back yet? He has to go back and read more books, don't embarrass himself in front of his son.

But just one sentence made Su Jianyi so upset that he didn't even want to drink tea.

Su Boting looked at the father and son, and he couldn't help but feel envious.

Before coming to Nanlin City, his father did not mention that he wanted to come with him, but he refused without even thinking about it.

Although they are father and son, they really don't have a deep relationship.

Especially the matter between Su Shun and Widow Chen before, which has always been a knot in his heart.

Su Boting set his goals very high and far.

Even if the journey will be very difficult, he will accept it with pleasure and will not feel tired.

Just like in his previous life.

Every day he plans to study and relies on his own efforts to get into the best local junior high school, the best high school and the university of his dreams.

What major to study, what type of company to choose for internship and future development.

He planned all this very well, and even very freely, as long as he can take on everything, he can go further.

But it's different here.

In addition to himself, he also has to look after the people at home.

Once they commit a crime, even if it has nothing to do with him, they will be implicated.

Su Shun is indeed very good to him, but this kindness is likely to do bad things with good intentions, and he will have to clean up the mess at that time.

And this kindness is not entirely due to him as a person.

To be realistic, if he hadn't done so well in studying, his family wouldn't treat him like this.

So this kindness was mixed with some interests.

So Su Boting was really worried.

If he really went into officialdom in the future, would Su Shun and the rest of the family be able to resist the temptation from outside?

He really couldn't guarantee this, and he couldn't completely stop it.

Every time this happened.

He envied Su Lin's family.

Su Lin's family's business was so good, he secretly calculated that in the past two years, Su Lin's family had earned at least several thousand taels of silver from the pastry business.

For farmers, a family could eat and dress well for a year without spending more than a few taels of silver.

Thousands of taels of silver was definitely a huge sum for them.

But Su Lin's family had never had any disputes or conflicts over money.

It wasn't that they were pretending.

The two families were so close and lived so close, how could they not know what was going to happen?

But no conflicts had ever happened.

This made him feel that if Su Jianyi could really get into the official career, his family would not only not hold him back, but might even give him a lot of help.

This was the point that made him most envious.

He also felt that this family was worth getting along with.

"Nephew, are you hungry? Do you want to eat some cakes?" Su Jianyi stretched out his hand and pushed the person next to him, and took out two pieces of mung bean cake from his sleeve pocket, "You take one, I take one, just let the stinky boy hungry."

As he said, he quickly stuffed the mung bean cake into his mouth.

It seemed that he really wanted to starve the boy in front of him.

While chewing, he said, "Who told you to love to choke me with words."

Su Lin spread his hands with a confused look on his face, "How could I!"

Su Jianyi would believe him.

He didn't think so before, it's impossible that he didn't realize it after suffering losses for more than two years?

Then he is really a fool.

However, when Bi Qiao came back with the carriage, they got into the carriage, and Su Jianyi took out a few candied dates with a look of disgust, "They are so sweet, I'll give them all to you, I don't like this stuff."

Su Lin took it with a smile, he loved this kind of sweet candied dates the most, "Dad really cares about me, he knows I like this."

Su Jianyi snorted, "Who cares about you!"

The father and son quarreled, and soon they arrived at the rented courtyard.

As Su Boting said, this place is a little remote, after all, it is in the town, even if it is remote, the houses here are still very well built.

There are few people on the aisle, not too many stalls, and no loud shouting.

"It's just in front, my classmates and I live next to you." Su Boting stretched out his hand and pointed. The house is not big, just three rooms.

Fortunately, there is a large courtyard in the back, with a warehouse in it.

The warehouse can be used as a study after cleaning it up, and it is a little distance away from the front hall and is very quiet.

Su Lin and his friends were very satisfied as soon as they entered.

Of course, the price was not small.

Su Boting and his classmates could share the rent, but they had to pay for the house themselves.

But this little money was really nothing to the Su family. Living comfortably was the most important thing.

Su Boting took them to look at the house. It was very clean inside, so they could just move in. "My classmates and I found a woman who does laundry and cooking. We spent some money to ask her to help clean up. You can find her if you need anything."

This is really necessary.

Su Jianyi is definitely a person who doesn't work. Although Su Lin and his friends can do some work at home, they came to the town with other tasks and can't stay in the house all the time.

Finding a woman to work can make them feel a lot more relaxed.

In this way, the three of them really stayed.

They didn't come with Su Boting for many guests. After cleaning up a little, they fell asleep immediately.

It wasn't tiring to walk all the way, but there was some fatigue.

Take a good rest before making plans.

Nanlin City is different from Huluo Town. There is no busy dock here, but there are two main roads here. Any merchant walking here will be willing to stop and take a rest in the city.

As a result, in addition to the scholars who come to take the exam, there are more walking merchants in the city.

Similarly, there are more merchants coming and going.

There are more things sold in the city, and even the styles of cloth are better than those in the town.

Su Lin walked around and thought about whether to resell.

But just thinking about it, this kind of buying and selling business is definitely not enough to buy a little, and a one-time transaction is too tiring.

Su Lin walked around a certain alley and was investigating where to buy a house.

Bi Qiao also had the same task. She and Su Lin worked separately to check the most suitable place and then slowly compare.

This cost a lot of money, so it can't be dealt with casually.

"Miss Bi?"

Bi Qiao heard someone shouting behind her, she turned her head and smiled immediately.

Isn't this her beautiful and kind sister?

Xi Yihe walked forward, she chuckled: "I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, do you also live in this alley?"

Bi Qiao shook her head, "Just taking a walk, my sister lives here?"

Xi Yihe pointed in a direction, "It's in that house, Miss Bi, do you want to come to my house and sit down? I have to thank you very much, if you hadn't sent me to the clinic, I'm afraid I wouldn't even have a place to hide from the rain that day."

Bi Qiao was a little entangled.

Visiting her home? Then will I be able to meet my original father?
