The Girl From Qianshan Academy (Update 1)

Traveling during the day and staying in a hotel at night. Read 520 official website

It was the tenth day of October when Su Liang and Ning Jing arrived in Pingbeicheng with their children, and there were only five days left before the provincial examination.

Pingbeicheng is the largest city in the northern part of Qian Kingdom.

Just after noon, people were coming and going at the city gate, which was very lively.

I was tired from playing and slept soundly in the car.

Su Liang wore men's clothes early in the morning and put on makeup carefully. He looked like a young boy.

She opened the curtain and took a look outside. The towering city gate was much more imposing than Bei'an County.

There was a routine inspection at the city gate, so Su Liang hid Zheng'er wrapped in a blanket behind her so that no one could see her.

Ning Jing was wearing a straw hat and dusty coarse clothes. He said that he was sending his son from Beiqing County to take the exam.

At that time, the four people said that they originally wanted to send Zheng'er to Pingbeicheng to be looked after by the fourth lady of the Li family who was married here. The four people who were let go knew that Su Liang and Ning Jing would come, and someone might intercept them here.

"It's a boy and a girl with a three-year-old child."

"The two men are not from Bei'an County."

The two soldiers whispered to each other and quickly let him go.

…

After entering the city, Ning Jing and Su Liang did not go to the inn, but first looked for Fang Ya to buy a house.

At this time, the money Su Liang earned from Mu Luo came in handy. She had no plans to use the sign given by Yan Yu to withdraw money for the time being.

Su Liang, who was bold and aggressive, chose and bought a quiet house in the center of Pingbei City under Fang Ya's enthusiastic introduction.

Fang Ya was left to handle all matters of transferring ownership and paying taxes to the government. In order to save trouble, I gave him a lot of extra money.

The house is neither big nor small, and has everything it needs. Someone has been cleaning and maintaining it before, so it is very clean.

For safety reasons, Su Liang and Ning Jing still lived in the same courtyard.

The two of them had brought their own bedding, and they only needed to buy some kitchen utensils to stay there.

Zheng'er finally had a place where he could run freely. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared. After a while, he ran out on his own without looking for him. He happily played hide and seek with Su Liang and Ning Jing. Sometimes they would cooperate with him, and sometimes they would know it. Where is he, deliberately not looking for it.

"How many days are left, are you going to Qianshan Academy?" Su Liang asked Ningjing.

As the head of the Bei'an County Academy Examination, Ning Jing could study at Qianshan Academy before the township examination, but he gave up at that time.

It should be okay to go now. Maybe there will be some key pre-exam tutoring.

"I'm not going." Ning Jing said.

"Okay. You watch Zheng'er at home while I go out to buy pots and ingredients." Su Liang said.

When Zheng'er saw Su Liang going out, he followed him out, and when Ning Jing called out, he turned around and ran back, throwing himself on Ning Jing.

All the things in the carriage were unloaded, and Su Liang drove out onto the street alone.

Today coincides with Qianshan Academy's hiatus, and there are many scholars wearing the same gray and white uniforms of the academy on the street.

Su Liang met the top three candidates in Bei'an County's college examination and they were shopping together.

If Ningjing appeared, they would definitely recognize him at a glance.

Su Liang first went to buy all the pots and pans she needed, and also bought a lot of food and meat, and then went to a clothing store to buy new clothes for her, Ning Jing and Zheng'er.

Seeing a small red satin hat with a small furry ball on it, hanging in the most conspicuous place in the store, Su Liang let it be taken off without asking the price. She thought it suited Zheng'er very well and it didn't matter if it was more expensive.

Passing by the bookstore, she went in and picked out a bunch of miscellaneous books she had never seen before, and put them all in the carriage.

As the Provincial Examination is approaching, the bookstore has a special shelf selling bookcases, which can be carried or carried on your back. They are made of various materials, and some of them look very high-end.

Su Liang saw some scholars carrying it on the street. Thinking that now that he was rich, Ningjing didn't have to carry a basket like he did when taking the college examination, so he went over to ask for the price.

The clerk saw that Su Liang was not short of money and highly recommended the most expensive one. However, she chose another one with lighter materials and a more reasonable internal design, so she bought it.

Su Liang went shopping all the way and returned home with a full load. When she got home, she received a warm bear hug from Zhenger Xiao Baozi.

Seeing Ning Jing holding the book box and frowning slightly, Su Liang quickly said, "I know it's not as good as your own, but I don't have time now, so just make do with it."

Ning Jing cleaned all the kitchen utensils he bought, held Zheng'er in his arms and lit the fire, while Su Liang cooked a sumptuous dinner.

Originally, she thought of just steaming minced meat and egg custard for Zheng'er, but thinking that Ning Jing would definitely ask "Can't adults eat it?", Su Liang made three portions.

Zheng'er's belly was bulging after eating, and Su Liang rubbed it gently for him. He narrowed his eyes and smiled in comfort, shouting, "Uncle Ning...Auntie..."

Later it became, "Uncle...Aunt Ning..."

…

When buying the house, Su Liang took a fancy to the large open space in the back garden, which could be used for martial arts training.

She got up early in the morning and went for a run. After running, she did a set of boxing and sword practice, and her talent was bright.

Ningjing heated up the hot water and walked back quickly when she heard Zheng'er calling someone in the room.

Su Liang felt that if Anping had children in the future, he would be a great father.

…

Although they came to the big city, Su Liang and Ning Jing temporarily resumed their life style in Sujia Village. Apart from having many children, everything else was the same.

When Ning Jing came, she brought some basic carpentry tools, found ropes and wooden boards, and built a small swing for Zheng'er in the courtyard, with a fence to prevent him from falling.

After listening to Su Liang's description, he made a pile of bricks for Zheng'er. Each one was polished and was exquisite except for being painted.

So, on a sunny afternoon, there were many building blocks piled on the stone table in the courtyard, and there was a fat baby dressed in a cute little red hat.

Ning Jing sat next to him and played with building blocks with Zheng'er.

The two worked together, one big and one small. Every time they formed a shape, Zheng'er would shout "Auntie" towards the room and must let Su Liang see it.

The window was open, and Su Liang, who was sitting in the room reading a book, smiled and gave a thumbs up, praising, "Zheng'er is great!"

Zheng'er imitated Su Liang's appearance, gave Ning Jing a thumbs up, and said with a smile, "Uncle is great!"

Su Liang chuckled, "Ning Jing, it's your turn to praise me."

Ning Jing looked at Su Liang and said lightly, "Read well."

Su Liang: ... You are playing building blocks with your child, why are you pretending to be cool, really.

...

Ning Jing has never left the house since he entered the city. Su Liang dressed up as a man to go shopping, and he has never taken the child to the street.

They didn't know that in addition to the people watching at the city gate, there were also people who searched every inn in the city. However, no matter "one man and one woman" or "one man and one woman with a child", no trace of them entering the city was found according to any instructions.

On October 14, Ning Jing had to go out.

All the scholars who participated in the provincial examination tomorrow needed to report to Qianshan Academy and get a badge. If they didn't have a badge, they would not be able to enter the examination hall.

"Go by yourself." Su Liang said.

Ning Jing would attract attention because of his background and the fact that he took the badge of the prince of Beijing to participate in the imperial examination. If people saw him with a woman and a child, there might be very outrageous rumors.

Ning Jing carried the book box that Su Liang bought for him, which was filled with water and delicious snacks made by Su Liang.

It was originally made for Zheng'er as a snack. Children can't eat much, but Ning Jing likes it very much.

Zheng'er thought Ning Jing was leaving and would not come back, so he hugged his legs and refused to let go.

Su Liang tried to coax him, but it was no use.

Ning Jing picked up Zheng'er, looked him in the eyes and said, "You're home."

Zheng'er didn't care what he said, he hugged his neck tightly and wouldn't let go. He would wail if he tried to pull away.

Ning Jing put down the bookcase, found the backpack that Su Liang bought yesterday to carry things, wiped it clean with a wet cloth, put a small blanket in it, then put Zheng'er in it and closed the lid.

Zheng'er thought he was playing hide-and-seek with him, and his little head stuck out from under the lid, laughing happily.

Su Liang held his forehead, "Are you sure you want to carry him to the academy? It's hard not to be discovered."

Ning Jing took the things out of the bookcase and put them in the backpack, and carried it on his back. Zheng'er's little head pushed against the lid, stretching and shrinking, having a lot of fun.

"Don't come out unless I tell you." Ning Jing turned around and said.

Zheng'er giggled.

Su Liang thought, it would be strange if he could understand, remember, and do it...

But even if he was discovered, there would be no serious consequences, so Su Liang let them go.

Watching Ning Jing take Zheng'er out of the door, Zheng'er stretched out his little hand and waved goodbye to Su Liang, as if saying, "I'm going to play with my uncle!"

...

There were many carriages parked at the foot of Baiyun Mountain, and the road was blocked.

Ning Jing was alone, carrying a backpack, walking up through the crowd.

"Mr. Ning!"

Ning Jing heard it, the voice was unfamiliar, so he ignored it. He was not the only one with the surname Ning.

There were hurried footsteps, and someone caught up.

It was an old man with neat clothes and shrewd eyes. He stopped Ning Jing and asked politely, "Mr., are you from Bei'an County?"

Ning Jing stopped and did not answer.

The old man introduced himself, "I am the owner of Yonglong Embroidery Shop in Pingbei City. The owner's surname is Yan."

Ning Jing then spoke, "What's the matter?"

"Is it Mr. Ning?" The old man smiled and said, "The owner wrote to me last month, saying that her friend Miss Su and Mr. Ning would come to Pingbei City, and asked me to buy a house to entertain them. I sent people to wait at the city gate tower, but I didn't see when the young master came. I thought that the young master should come to the academy today, so I came here to wait."

"How do you know it's me?" Ning Jing asked.

The old man smiled and replied, "The owner sent a portrait with the letter, so that we don't recognize the wrong person."

"Thank you. There is nothing to bother you for now." Ning Jing said.

"I wonder which inn the young master is staying in? The house is ready and you can move in at any time." The old man said.

"Someone will go to the embroidery shop to look for you tomorrow." Ning Jing finished speaking and continued to walk up.

The old man thought for a moment and felt that Ning Jing meant that it was not needed today and would be discussed tomorrow. He had to go back.

Ning Jing did not doubt that this was someone arranged by Yan Yu. Because those who wanted to make trouble in the dark did not know the relationship between Su Liang, Ning Jing and Yan Yu.

Ning Jing took the small path, to a place where no one was, and called softly, "Zheng'er."

Zheng'er, who had been staying in the backpack obediently, got the signal, stood up with his little head against the lid, grabbed the edge of the backpack with his little hands, and looked at the completely different scenery in the mountains with surprise on his little face.

This was the game that Ning Jing and Zheng'er had agreed on. He could only come out if his name was called, and he would go back if he patted the backpack.

Qianshan Academy appeared in sight, Ning Jing patted the backpack twice, and Zheng'er sat back obediently, and moved the lid with his little hand to cover it tightly.

"Mr. Ning!"

A scholar from Bei'an County stood at the gate of the academy, saw Ning Jing from a distance, and shouted loudly.

Instantly, it caused a commotion.

Although Ning Jing had never been to Qianshan Academy before, everyone in the academy knew him.

Because he was the first scholar in the history of Qianshan Academy who was granted free admission but did not come.

You know, this academy is famous throughout the country, and many students from other places have tried their best to get admission but could not find a way.

Many people asked the three scholars from Bei'an County about Ning Jing. Two of them said they didn't know him, and the one who ranked first with Ning Jing hinted that Ning Jing was very arrogant because he had a backer.

So, Ning Jing's reputation of "arrogance" spread. In addition to his background, some people who only knew his name and had never seen him made a lot of rumors.

The most outrageous thing is that there is a rumor secretly circulating in Qianshan Academy that "Ning Jing is the male favorite of Xing Yusheng, the prince of Beijing."

Ning Jing, this "celebrity", immediately became the focus as soon as he appeared.

When he walked to the gate of the academy, two scholars with Bei'an County household registration came up to greet him, with a kind of cordiality like meeting old folks.

But they had only met on the day of the college examination and later on the day when Mu Fei invited guests.

In fact, Ning Jing had saved their lives, but they didn't know it.

Ning Jing just nodded and asked where they should report.

The two had taken the sign and took Ning Jing there.

Along the way, they were all in the spotlight.

After seeing Ning Jing's true appearance today, the rumor that he was a male favorite of a certain prince was mentioned again, because he looked so good...

Reporting was very simple, confirming the identity, receiving the exam card, and looking at the exam precautions posted next to it, you can go.

Ning Jing took his own sign, thanked the two scholars who led the way, and was about to leave when a scholar ran over, "Where is Mr. Ning Jing? The dean asked him to come over!"

For a moment, the eyes of the people around Ning Jing changed again.

Under the attention of everyone, Ning Jing, carrying a backpack, followed the guide through most of the academy and arrived at the door of a quiet courtyard.

"Mr. Ning, please come in." The guide left after saying that.

Before entering the door, Ning Jing patted the backpack twice again to remind Zheng'er to hide.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, a light green figure ran over, and a crisp voice revealed an unconcealed surprise, "Brother Jing!"
