Xu Ling’er had long since pressed on, hiding in a concealed spot not far from the entrance door and looking this way.
When she saw Song Si coming down from the carriage, she was overjoyed and straightened her clothes, preparing for a “coincidental encounter” later. ”
“Why are you panicking? Your grandmother has her own way of dealing with this, just sit down and wait.”
Wen frowned slightly, for the first time in her life she felt that she had spoiled her, that she was shouting at the slightest thing.
……
The boy led Song Si and Sun Jin outside Mr. Xu’s study and reported, “Master, Mr. Song and Mr. Sun are here.”
How did two people come?
Grand Master Xu was unhappy and frowned, “Let them in!”
The boy opened the door and Song Si and Sun Jin entered, Mr. Xu’s eyes fell on Song Si.
Sure enough, the two bowed
“Song Si has met Mr. Xu.”
Great Mister Xu nodded, “Have a seat.”
The two men sat down in a disciplined manner, especially Sun Jin, his body was unusually straight, he was only able to meet Great Mister Xu because of Song Si’s patronage, and he must not disgrace Song Si.
Mr. Xu said directly to Song Si, “I’m calling you here today because I heard that you visited my father before the exams and received his guidance, I want to ask you how you did in your essay for the exams?”
“Your Excellency ……”
Song Si was just about to answer when Great Mister Xu pointed to the bookcase on the side, “I have already had paper and pencil prepared over there, go and write it down.”
Song Si respectfully answered, got up and walked over, put pen to paper and started writing.
“How is your writing?”
“Your Excellency, the student ……”
Sun Jin recited the essay he had written as well, word for word, and Great Mister Xu nodded while listening, and when he had finished, he praised, “It’s well written, if there’s nothing wrong with your front, you should be on the top of the list for this session.”
“I thank you for your kind words, Mr. Xu.”
Mr Xu looked at him twice. Although his temperament was a little less than Song Si’s, his speech and mannerisms showed the unique aura of a rich family’s son, who obviously came from a wealthy family.
Knock, knock!
“Come in.”
The door was pushed open and Huo smilingly led in two maids carrying tea. She had been informed that Song Si had not come alone, so she had prepared three cups of tea.
“Master ……”
She first placed one of the cups of tea in front of Mr Xu Da Ming, and instructed the maid to place the other cup in front of Sun Jin, and the remaining cup instructed the maid to put it over to Song Si’s side.
Song Si was immersed in the article, his pen did not stop, Huo did not see his appearance, but looking at the teenager’s slender body, he also knew that the appearance could not be wrong.
Satisfied, she took the maid and withdrew.
The study was quiet.
Mr. Xu Da lifted his tealight and took a sip of tea, seeing Sun Jin still sitting pensively, he said, “There is no need to be so nervous, drink your tea.”
“Thank you, Great Mister.”
Sun Jin hurriedly picked up the tea and didn’t bother to scald it, drinking several sips in a row.
When Song Si finished writing, he put down his pen and brought it over to show it to Mr. Big.
“Grrr.”
Sun Jin’s stomach growled, his face turned red, and he looked at Mr. Xu in a panic, but he saw that he was reading the article and did not hear it, so he was just about to feel relieved when his stomach growled again, and not only that, it also hurt vaguely. “Sir, I, I, I’m going to go to the convenience.”
Mr. Xu was watching carefully and did not hear what he said, so he waved his hand casually.
As soon as he opened the door, he eagerly asked the boy waiting at the door, “Where is the toilet?”
Seeing that his face was turning red, the boy said, “I’ll take you there.”
“Please hurry.”
When he saw the latrine from afar, Sun Jin hurriedly crossed over the boy and ran in quickly.
Sun Jin’s stomach was churning with pain and he braced himself to reply, “You go back first, I’ll go there myself when it’s ready.”
Mr. Sun’s side really needed someone to wait on him, so the boy answered and turned around to go back.
Sun Jin squatted in the latrine for two quarters of an hour, almost deflated from the straining, and staggered out of the latrine, both legs trembling.
“Sun Gongzi.”
A boy was waiting outside the latrine, and seeing him in such a state, he rushed forward to help him, “Mr. Big has instructed me to help you to rest.”
Sun Jin’s mind was not working well as he was squatting. He had no idea how Mr. Big could have ordered such a thing and said breathlessly, “Then I’ll trouble you.”
……
Inside the study, Mr. Xu finished reading Song Si’s essay and was full of praise, “You come from a farming family, but to have such insight into current affairs is rare.”
“It’s all because of the old man’s good guidance.”
Mr Xu nodded his head as he stroked his beard. He was not arrogant, not impatient, humble, indeed a rare young man.
“Song Si ah, I heard that you are not yet engaged, I have a granddaughter, since childhood by my father’s teaching, smart and intelligent, understanding, good and beautiful, if you ……”
“The student is already betrothed.”
Mr. Xu Da was stunned, “When did that happen?”
“Yesterday.”
“Yesterday ……”
Mr. Xu was so remorseful, he should have thought that Song Si would be very sought-after, now he was so late, a good granddaughter son-in-law would become someone else’s, he lost interest in gossiping with him at once.
“It’s my fault for being abrupt, just pretend I didn’t say what I just said, it’s getting late, I’ll have someone send you back.”
“The student excused himself.”
Song Si came out of the house and was just about to ask the boy where Sun Jin had gone when a boy came into the courtyard, “Sir Song, Sir Sun’s stomach is not feeling well, his whole body is straining to be deflated, he is resting in the guest room, please follow me.”
Song Si didn’t doubt it and followed him outside, the boy was quick on his feet and looked around as he walked, he soon led him to a courtyard and stopped, “Sir Song, Sir Sun is inside, please come in.”
Song Si walked up to the door and was about to push it open when he vaguely smelled an aroma, his hand stopped and he called out tentatively, “Brother Sun?”
There was no response from inside the house.
“Brother Sun?”
Song Si raised his voice and shouted again, but there was still no response from inside the house.
Song Si turned his head and headed out, the boy stopped in front of him, “Mr. Song ……”
“Get out of the way!”
The boy was still lying, “Sir Song, Sir Sun is really inside, if you don’t believe me, just take a look, just take a look.”
As the boy said this, he pushed him hard in the direction of the house door.
Song Si was pushed by him and stumbled a few steps, his body slammed against the door of the house, which was knocked open, looking like Song Si was about to fall in…
An angry voice rang out, “What are you doing?”
