Saved the carriage and started climbing the mountain.
Wenyuan Mountain is not too high, only about 100 meters by visual inspection. Both Wenyuan Temple and Wenyuan Spring are on the top of the mountain, and there is only one step that allows people to walk up the mountain.
Huang Shuhai and Chu Xiao walked in the front with their children in their arms, Chu Rong followed in the middle, and Little Wolf carried a burden and walked in the end with the empty water bottle that Chu Xiao had prepared in his hand.
I didn't see many people at the foot of the mountain, but as soon as I walked up the mountain for a quarter of an hour, the number of people gradually increased. Most of them were dressed up by ordinary people. Of course, there were also a few noble ladies and young ladies who waited on the side of the maid. , There are servants guarding the way before and after.
Moreover, there are two little maids who are carrying delicate kettles in their hands. It looks like they are here to receive Wenyuan spring water. Compared with offering incense and water for their own sons or brothers, they are lucky to get the water in next year's county examination or Chunwei. Good results.
The more you go up, the more people there are, and there are still people climbing up behind. Chu Rong can't help but lament the power of faith in this era.
"See, I said that this Wenyuan spring water is very good, so many people come to ask for it." Chu Xiao looked back at Jun'er in Huang Shuhai's arms with a smile and said, "Xiao Jun'er, you can get it later Drink a few more sips, try to drink the whole pot, and give my uncle the number one exam next year."
Huang Jun'er looked down at his short legs, then glanced at Chu Xiao in disgust without answering.
But Chu Rong, who heard this, couldn't help laughing, and subconsciously looked at her son's short legs. Just this head, I'm afraid it can't even reach the case in the examination room. Not to mention that the test lasted for three days, she couldn't bear it, and she had to wait until Jun'er could take care of herself before letting him go.
Many people around who were walking up the mountain naturally heard Chu Xiao's words. Everyone came for the same thing. Doesn't it mean that one of your children failed the exam?
No matter what the test is, there is a quota limit. To put it bluntly, those who come to offer incense are considered hidden enemies, and they are all displeased.
Chu Xiao's words caused quite a stir, and many people wanted to open their mouths to laugh or say a few sarcastic remarks to attack this person who wanted to be the No. 1 scholar.
But when they saw that the No. 1 Scholar in Chu Xiao¡¯s mouth was begged by a five or six-year-old boy with a pink and tender jade, everyone immediately shut their mouths and looked at him without hostility. He looked at Jun'er with a smile in his eyes, and several women congratulated him in advance with a smile.
There is nothing to be hostile to a baby who has just been weaned. Even if he really gets the number one exam, it will be more than ten years later, and his own child will be next year, so he can't run into it.
Oh, that child is so beautiful, and the little girl in the arms of the person in front is also beautiful, look at the brothers and sisters, they must be twins, you have to go to the front to get happy, maybe add Wenyuan spring water, My kid can be a scholar.
Walking behind, Chu Rong saw all the psychological changes of these people. She couldn't laugh or cry. If you want to be angry, they really didn't say anything unpleasant. On the contrary, her son was praised in various ways. She was also very proud.
If she was really not angry, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. After all, she knew very well what these people were going to say at the beginning.
However, after thinking it through, Chu Rong could understand it. To be honest, these women could be regarded as true temperaments.
There was no hostile relationship, Chu Xiao and Chu Rong chatted with the women and girls around. In this era, most of the people who offer incense are women. Except for the guards and servants, there are very few men who are in charge of the house. Huang Shuhai He and Chu Xiao are very special existences.
Of course, there are also students who come here in person out of sincerity, and this is considered a minority.
Along the way, Chu Rong inquired overtly and secretly, and luckily met the aborigines in Fucheng, and inquired about several large commercial firms in a few words.
The family with the strongest foundation is the Murong family, who were born as relatives of the state. Although the dynasties have changed, but with this status and a hundred years of experience, many properties in Lingnan Prefecture are named Murong.
In addition, there is also the Fujia shop, which is considered foreign, but it also occupies a significant position. But this Chu Rong is not interested. Fumanlou is the property of the Fu family. Last time, Chen Feng gave her a general introduction to the background of the Fu family. It was an imperial merchant, and she didn't want to get involved.
It's not that she is timid, but in this country where the imperial power is supreme, it is very important to have a relationship with the emperor's character. It is very insecure to behead the nine clans at every turn.
Of course, which vegetables, fish and shrimps are provided to Fumanlou in Wenshui County, this has nothing to do with Fujia.
Except for these two, the remaining two are slightly inferior. The Xiao family came from a business background, and the other is the eldest lady of the Tai family in Lingnan Prefecture. From the disgusting and envious words of the two women, Chu??To sum it up, that is the representative of a domineering female president.
Especially when she knew about the north and south groceries run by this Futai lady, Chu Rong became even more interested. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
